"So, are you really Luo Kun?"
Upon hearing this name, a trace of confusion flashed through the eyes of "Daoist Huangmu", he muttered to himself, "Luo Kun? Am I Luo Kun? No, my name is Daoist Huangmu..."
Suddenly, he clutched his head, moaning in pain, "Who...who am I?"
As he spoke, a dark aura continued to leak from his body and the face of the half-transformed beast contorted, sprouting layer upon layer of black scales.
Seeing this, Murong hastily put some distance between them.
The Daoist was obviously on the brink of a full transformation, a true monster in the making.
In this world, once such a transformation starts, two things can generally happen.
One option is a physical transformation, where a person becomes a monstrous, unrecognizable creature.
The other arises from their Original Spirit undergoing a change, mutating into something ghastly.
For cultivators with a high Realm, both transformations often happen simultaneously.
