"Lu Ren, although Crane Heaven Ancient Ancestor cultivates the Immortal Dao, he is a cultivator of the Demon Race."
Seeing this, Three-Extremes Ancient Ancestor immediately warned him, "He's using demihumanization to force his strength higher. But he shouldn't be able to maintain that state for long."
"Demihumanization?"
Lu Ren was startled, his expression turning grave.
He had never expected anyone to combine the power of a Demon Race true form with the human form used to cultivate the Immortal Dao so completely.

Lu Ren weighed the situation in his mind.
Boom!
Another thunderous impact sent them both flying backward.
