Chapter 581: Xutian Thunder
The black panther stepped out from the shadows. Its fur was sleek and pitch-black, gleaming with a cold luster, without a single blemish in sight.
Around its neck hung a golden ring, though it didn’t resemble an astra.
The panther blocked the entrance of the stone chamber. Its gaze swept over the two figures waiting in tight formation, laced with a mocking amusement.
It carried itself with ease, showing not the slightest regard for Qin Sang, Wandering Man, or the flying yaksha. It looked at them the way one would look at a handful of toys.
For a demonic beast at the middle stage of the Demonic Core Realm, Fake Core Realm cultivators were not worth mentioning. Even the strongest among them, the flying yaksha, could be slain at will.
"Shadow Devouring Panther!"
Wandering Man’s eyes turned cold. A grim expression appeared beneath his mask as he warned, "The Shadow Devouring Panthers serve under the Feathered Demon King. This one is the king of its kind. Its skill in hiding breath and concealing movement is top-tier even among the demon race. Brother, you must be careful."
Qin Sang silently nodded. No wonder.
The Shadow Devouring Panther was renowned for its exceptional stealth, with a reputation that extended even among cultivators.
What’s more, this one was at the middle stage of the Demonic Core Realm which was two stages above them. It was no surprise that even the hidden marks left by Wandering Man had failed to detect its presence.
Looking at the beast before him, Qin Sang’s heart sank like a stone.
He stood still by the lakeside, not daring to move. His body had gone rigid, his blood nearly frozen.
