Shen Xiu's expression shifted slightly.
Watching this scene, the Great Elder burst into laughter.
"I told you, these things will only scratch an itch for you. They're utterly worthless."

Another bolt of black lightning appeared over Shen Xiu's body.
At that moment, Shen Xiu's body seemed to become even tougher. Strange black scales covered the surface of his skin.
His palms, too, were covered in black scales.
