In the next moment, the towering tree transformed, taking the shape of a massive coffin adorned with numerous eyes. Its aura grew even stronger, carrying an unmistakable sense of death that spread in all directions.
Afterward, it turned into a swirling vortex of blackness, from which struggling cries echoed. The third stage of the shadow's transformation was taking shape.
Xu Qing stared at the black vortex with anticipation.
The effect of the shadow was miraculous at certain times. Hence, after understanding the terrifying suppressive power of the purple crystal, he hoped that the shadow could become stronger.
"What will the third stage be?"
As Xu Qing mumbled, a rumbling sound rang out from the black vortex. Its range instantly expanded from 1,000 feet to 10,000 feet.
It wasn't erect but spread out like a black cloud that covered the sky.
