World essence started to gather around a large mass of thick vines, which twirled and twisted to conjoin with each other.
Liam watched with a tense gaze as the giant mass started to take a disturbing shape.
A giant pincer resembling a venus flytrap emerged at its front, adorned with razor-sharp spikes for teeth. Hook vines shot out of its rear, front and sides, clinging to the surrounding trees as it released a low, deep growl.
Liam didn't need to watch the rest, activating Fleeting Foot and running away at full speed
'What is that thing?!' he cursed with a frown, looking over his shoulder to track the giant monstrosity. 'Rank 4?'
It started to chase, its hooks clipping to trees to catapult itself forward – its giant pincer closed and shut repeatedly, splintering the thick, towering trees with ease.
Hooks shot at Liam's body, but Lethality Mantle, the second and first form of his martial art, severed the chain-like vines and withered them.
