Yu Xuan and the group stepped into the cave.
It was pitch-dark inside, but thanks to Number One's concealment artifact, their presence vanished completely, like shadows swallowed by deeper shadows.
As they walked, Yu Xuan noticed something strange.
There were no beasts along the path.
Not a single one.
But deep within, deep in the hollowed heart of the cave.
He sensed an enormous presence.
"Boss… do you feel it too?" Number Two whispered, unusually serious.
Yu Xuan nodded.
They ventured deeper.
But the moment they stepped into the vast hollow chamber.
BOOM!!
A massive slab of rock crashed down behind them, sealing the entrance completely and shaking the entire cave.
Dust exploded into the air.
"Was that a trap?" Yu Xuan muttered as everyone tensed.
Ahead, illuminated faintly by itself, was a massive creature.
A lion-like beast with a scorpion's tail, bat-like wings, and an aura of scorching heat.
