"This is…"
Feeling the rise and fall of his chest and hearing the distinct rhythm of his heartbeat, Shi Wuxie's eyes widened suddenly, and his lips trembled as he murmured, "One...two...three...it really...beat..."
Could this be what they call... a heartbeat?
Did his heart really start beating?
"Well…"
However, before he could be happy for long, he suddenly felt his body stiffen, his knees bent, and he knelt down.
"Click, click..."
Then, an extreme stinging and tingling sensation came from my muscles and bones, accompanied by a cracking sound as my bones were being squeezed together.
"uh-huh…"
Previously, Shi Wuxie had almost no sense of pain. This was the first time he had experienced such intense pain, and it was so unbearable.
His forehead was covered in cold sweat. He tried not to hold back, but even though his lips were bitten until they bled, soft moans still escaped his lips.
At the same time, Shi Wuxie did not notice that his originally fair skin had turned completely gray, and the color was gradually deepening. Then, one by one, black scales with a metallic sheen slowly appeared and covered his entire body!
"ah…"
The pain intensified, and Shi Wuxie finally couldn't bear it any longer and collapsed to the ground, curling up and screaming in agony.
"No...this is..."
It was at this moment that Shi Wuxie finally noticed something on his arm. Soon, his fingernails began to become curved and sharp, like those of a wild beast, while his fingers gradually withered, his arm gradually stiffened, his back became more and more bent, and finally he could no longer lift his head!
"No...no, it can't be...this can't be real..."
This situation filled Shi Wuxie's heart with fear for the first time.
He had no idea what had happened, let alone what changes were taking place.
Back when he was evolving from a hairy zombie, he was clearly becoming more and more beautiful and more and more like a human. Why is it that now, as he is about to reach the final stage of evolution, he has undergone such a mutation?
Could it be that he's about to transform into a wild beast...?
No…no, he wants to be human, he doesn’t want to be a beast…he doesn’t want to…
Shi Wuxie gritted his teeth and stood up unsteadily, enduring the pain. He desperately raised his hand... no, it had now transformed into a beast's forelimb, trying to stand up and walk upright like that. However, he couldn't do it at all. He struggled to stand up two or three times before falling back to the ground.
"ah…"
Despair, grief, unknown fear, and a final, unexpected, and intense pain caused Shi Wuxie to roar, finally unable to hold on any longer, his body slumped, and he fainted.
"Boom..."
And at the very moment he lost consciousness, the originally clear sky began to be covered with dark clouds, lightning flashed, and a terrifying pressure was rapidly gathering!
[The Mortal Realm, the Empire, the Back Mountain of the Jun Family]
"Boom..."
Above his head, calamity clouds gathered, and Jun Wuyou looked up, his eyes filled with longing.
"Alright, Father, Mother, and Elders, please leave quickly so we don't accidentally hurt you."
Turning his gaze away, Jun Wuyou said to everyone, "Don't worry, I have so many magical treasures that you all gave me, I'll definitely be fine."
"Then be careful."
Now, nothing can be changed. No matter how reluctant they are, there's nothing they can do but leave, looking back every few steps.
"Sister, brother, wait, San'er will be coming to find you soon."
