The surface of the Blood Lake was visibly burning away, its water level dropping rapidly.
'It's really working!'
Yang An watched in delight as the Blood Lake rapidly evaporated and the flames grew more intense. One-Eyed was stunned.
But the next moment, an earth-shattering roar erupted from within the Blood Lake. The water's surface violently swelled, sending flames soaring into the air as a colossal creature shot out, its entire body engulfed in fire.
"Futan!"
Beside him, One-Eyed cried out in delight, having recognized the creature's identity at a glance.
He hadn't expected Futan to be the first one to be forced out.
Yang An's gaze fell upon the massive creature that had leaped high out of the lake. It was fish-shaped, its body a mix of eerie green and deep red scales, and covered in vascular tendrils. Numerous partially decomposed corpses were attached to these tendrils, which appeared to be siphoning the flesh and blood from within them.
