(First update)
The Whale-Swallowing Beast's enormous tail swept through the air. Whoooosh!!!! A piercing whistle rang out, as though space itself would be torn open, as the tail swept toward Li Xiaoya's flank. Though its power seemed somewhat weaker than the Sea Flood Dragon's, Li Xiaoya had no desire to find out what getting hit felt like. Golden light erupted across his body, and the Heavenly Feather Wings on his back beat furiously, allowing him to narrowly evade the attack.
But halfway through its sweep, the enormous tail shook with a boom!!! and abruptly stopped. A sonic boom erupted, and countless streams of black qi suddenly spewed from the Whale-Swallowing Beast's tail, whipping up a gale that blasted toward Li Xiaoya.
Not good!! Alarm surged through Li Xiaoya at the sight. The Heavenly Feather Wings on his back beat several times in succession, sending him shooting higher into the sky as he tried to dodge the black qi! But it was already too late. The astral wind unleashed by the Whale-Swallowing Beast's tail had come too fiercely. Despite his exceptional speed and reflexes, he failed to evade it entirely. With an explosive whoosh!!!!, Li Xiaoya activated the Heavenly Feather Wings' Instant Movement Divine Ability. His wings flapped, white light flashed, and he vanished. Another flash of white light brought him several dozen yards away, where pitch-black qi coated both his lower legs. His trousers below the calves and his shoes had already been completely corroded away. The Whale-Swallowing Beast was cunning indeed, unleashing poison gas in the instant of its attack so that Li Xiaoya could not dodge, catching him in its trap. It was far craftier than an ordinary demon beast.
