Within the depths of Zou Fang's spiritual sea, Wei Long remained trapped in crystallization, suspended in a state of forced evolution.
His vision flickered with the glow of a system notification hovering in the void of his mind:
[Host is Evolving! Please bear with the process because if the host doesn't, nothing will actually happen.]
Wei Long's eyes twitched. "Why are you scaring me? Is this some kind of joke? My bio-engineered body—"
But before he could even finish his thought, an invisible force struck his entire being.
His massive Tyrannosaurus Rex body, enhanced with elongated claws and superior agility, shuddered within the crystal.
A strange sensation crawled through his bones, like thousands of hot needles piercing into his marrow, spreading agony across every fiber of his existence.
It started as an uncomfortable heat, then escalated into unbearable pain.
