A profound beast appeared in front of John, and had materialized out of nowhere, most likely the work of some formation. However, unlike the illusion formation, this beast was corporeal, and was able to cause real damage.
"A Golden Mane Lion? It appeared out of nowhere, so I'm guessing it's a formation instead of it being an actual lion. Although the strength should be the same."
The lion in front of John was a Golden Mane Lion, which was nearly six feet tall and fifteen feet long from head to tail. It had a large golden mane, which gave it its name, as well as razor sharp claws jutting from each of its paws. Its mouth was larger than John's head, and many sharp teeth jutted from its mouth.
Its power was at the early Qi Condensation realm, which caused John to frown somewhat. He had been hoping for a good fight, but the lion was far too weak to provide that.
