Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, the tentacles beneath the metal slowly pierced through the pores and burrowed deep into the black horse's flesh.
At that moment, everyone held their breath and silently watched the changes before them.
Yet after waiting for the time it took to burn half an incense stick, the black horse still showed no changes whatsoever.

"How dare you!"
Seeing this, Hanyuan beside Lu Zhiyi immediately shouted, and his Third Soul Ring suddenly lit up with icy-blue soul light.
