Niyad bit his finger dropping a bit of blood on the weighted armor and it seemed to phase underneath his clothes and disappear.
His eyes widened because he could still feel the weight but it now felt as if it was underneath his skin and had become one with his body.
Count's expression immediately left Niyad then went to Kai who was standing with arms crossed.
"It's your turn now." He called out, causing General Kai to freeze, ~Ah... After all I am only a kid to this person, of course I'd get pointers as well.~
After advising the kids to give them some space, Kai grabbed his lance and moved forward towards Count who had taken the appearance of a 17 year old.
Since not
<.< >.> "Hi, I'm here to talk about your car's extended warranty.."
Wooosh!!! Kai's control of the earth element was immaculate, he rushed forward and the waves of earthen rubble grew as it followed him. The rubble continuously grew in size and soon took on the form of an earthen dragon. Kai came to a sudden stop then crouched slightly moving his lance to point at Count and the earthen dragon roared then shot from behind him towards Count. "Shit, that's the ‘Roar Of The Earthen Dragon’, it's almost impossible to learn." Minki commented in awe, his eyes sparkled as he looked at the dragon crashing towards Count. Count also had an excited expression, he shot forward like a comet and pounced on the head of the earthen dragon. The dragon started twisting trying to throw Count off but he remained balanced as he ran along the dragon's back. ~This is a sparring match?~ Niyad watched with widened eyes, Kai stood still and constantly sent earth Qi into the ground through his feet, this was how he controlled the earth dragon skill. However the skill hardly
How many hours had it been? Niyad was too tired to keep track, and he doubted Minki even cared to do so. He was barely keeping himself going as the weights kept draining his energy. Lianlian was also pushing forward, while refusing to be carried by anyone. "Let's stop and rest for a bit, otherwise only Minki will be able to fight if we run into danger." Lianlian suggested. Niyad nodded in agreement and sat down to rest. His previous weights were only a burden because they were heavy, however the new ones were constantly draining his energy. At first he thought Count had given the new ones as punishment, but after thinking it through, the constant strenuous effect it had on his Qi would temper him and allow him to grow faster. "Lianlian, enter the Life space ring to replenish your energy faster."
Although they were now some distance away Lianlian couldn't help asking, "Do you guys think more of that beast will show up?" "Well if they show up, Uncle Kai will obliterate them, so you don't need to worry." ~Don't need to worry? What if he obliterates us in the process...~ Lianlian was afraid of spiders but she was more scared of what would happen if her father overreacted. Lianlian tried distracting herself by thinking about other things, she smiled at Cub who ran alongside her; Maybe it was due to its demonic nature but cub grew very fast. It could also be attributed to its food being medicinal pellets and meat from higher ranked beasts, it was already at the spirit realm in cultivation. Not only that, its level of intelligence was quite high. It unders
As they sprinted forward Niyad called out, "Keep your eyes open for any ivory realm beast or normal animals, we are running low on food." "How much food do we have left?" Minki asked nervously. Niyad did a quick check of his storage ring and called out. "Two days worth." Two weeks after entering the dark forest the trio ran out of rations and had to hunt. Although cultivators rarely needed to eat and could depend on their Qi for sustenance it was difficult for them in their current situation. The constant use of Qi while fleeing and fighting was already enough strain on their bodies, if they did not eat, their concentrations would surely falter. For the few days that their ration ran dry, Lianlian made food p
Two weeks after consolidating their realms, even though their cultivation bases increased, things became harder for them. Lianlian and Niyad's efficiency when fighting had greatly decreased because they fought without altering the effects of the weighted armor. This made Minki their main fighting force, it was a strain on all of them but there were noticeable benefits. After such a short period of time Lianlian's body had strengthened and her ability to maintain her balance in difficult situations had peaked Without the weighted armor Niyad's swiftness had increased, coupled with his body cultivation he became a blur at maximum speed. They were running through the forest, Minki and Niyad matched Lianlian's maximum speed while wearing her weighted armor so their advance was quite slow. <
Niyad's body smashed through trees shredding them to pieces before finally coming to a stop. It felt as if all the bones in his body were broken, his limbs became heavy and just breathing was painful. It all happened too fast, if he weren't wearing the heavy armor he would be dead for sure. Of course he could have shielded himself using Qi, but instead he chose to immediately pull Minki and Lianlian into the life space ring. ~Just what kind of attack was that? I even dabbled in body cultivation so why am I this hurt?~ He forcibly sat up resulting in him coughing up blood. "This f*cking hurts." He groaned while struggling to breathe and the pain made him want to throw up. It took some time for the dizziness to pass and what he saw in front of him was a huge earthen wall. It was obviously made
"This is a Tyrant realm beast, I don't know if it's early or late stage but not even General Kai would be able to escape if it wanted him dead." Niyad said seriously. "Why isn't it making a move?" Minki asked. "It is wary because of its nest. It's probably waiting for either father or Li Hao to die before it attacks. We're too far away to warn them, I'm sure if any of us chooses to shout it'll kill us right away." Lianlian said. "I'm not sure how either of you know all this information but I'll take your word for it." Minki was at a loss, he knew they had excellent senses, but being able to tell the beast's Realm when they were much weaker. Not only that, they also inferred the gender and the fact that it had a nest just by looking. Wasn't this going beyond acute senses and approaching the Godly realm? Even in this situation he couldn't help glancing at the duo. "I need you both to enter the life space ring." Niyad suddenly said. "No." Both Minki and Lianlian echoed each other. "
Li Hao's face paled, the strange man didn't only step out of a spatial tear. He managed to kill a tyrant realm beast with only two physical attacks. ~Is he a body cultivator in the sovereign ream?~ But that didn't make sense, the only person on the continent to reach the sovereign realm in bodily cultivation was the Barbaric Blood King. Kai suddenly felt chills up his spine and his attention shot to Li Hao, could he really defeat him in time? Although Count made Kai nervous, Li Hao calmed down when he realized that Count wouldn't intervene in their fight. There was no doubt in his mind that he would be able to kill Kai, he was only injured before, because he was distracted. He stopped his bleeding by cauterizing the wound on his shoulder. Circulating his Qi, His whole body ignited once more and he shot forward. Unlike other flame
Helshire Continent Kiro gritted his teeth in anger, his entire body was coated by fire Qi as he inspected one by one, the lifeless bodies strewn in random locations. A few days ago, Peter put him in charge of leading a search group that consisted of only tyrant realm cultivators. Their goal was to find the location of the lamia then alert Kiro who would be in charge of capturing it. His group started out with a total of thirty eight cultivators in all who were then split into several smaller groups in order to efficiently comb the forest. However, the lamia was far craftier than he had expected, and as a result fifteen of his men had disappeared. After a brief search, he found their remains. The wounds on them were similar, a single slash to the neck; This suggested that they were all killed by the same person or beast. The most eerie part was that none of them seemed to have expected their deaths. Which means whatever killed them, was quick enough to surprise them and quiet
Sercy, Nora and Niyad stood above the walls of the Southern Kingdom, they arrived just in time to see Aloysius grabbing Viktoria before sprinting in their direction. The moment he breached the wall they made eye contact and his shocked expression turned to one of relief once he recognized them. After coming to a stop he gently placed Viktoria on the ground then turned to face the trio, now that he had backup they could easily wipe out the rest of the sovereign realm experts.Nora, who didn't think much of the red haired man, asked directly, "I'm only sensing a few Sovereign auras in the city, are they all enemies?" Aloysius, not sure of her identity, hesitated a bit before nodding in response. Receiving an answer, Nora swiftly raised her bow aiming it at the city. The temperature around them rose rapidly and the trees withered as all the water in the surroundings vaporized.She relaxed her fingers and a red Qi arrow shot forward growing in size as it descended on the City. Unlike w
Southern Kingdom The people within the Cultivation city of the Southern Kingdom didn't hesitate to evacuate. Although they weren't allowed to use the transportation formations for security reasons, the borders of all three Kingdoms would be opened if they decided to relocate via merchant routes. They also had the option to retreat to smaller villages and cities within the Southern Kingdom if they wished to stay in the territory. After making sure everyone left, the two split up to destroy the transportation formations. It didn't take long before Viktoria finished and contacted Aloysius. "Are you done destroying the formations to the North and east?" The Ice Queen used a communication talisman to speak with the Barbarian King. "Yes, what about on your end?" "I'm already done so meet me back at the Western entr-" A large Qi fluctuation caused Viktoria to pause; Her eyes grew wide as her divine sense picked up on something. "Aloysius, 20 of them, sovereigns..." "Shit!" Was A
Niyad stared wide eyed at the two figures before him. One was his mother but her current image looked unfamiliar to him, even her aura seemed foreign. The other was technically his master, someone he had grown fond of in a weird way. But he had transformed into a strange beast with a baleful aura of death surrounding him. Count's true form was ten times more terrifying than anything he could have possibly imagined.It was almost impossible to find a creature of his likeness, what exactly is he? An amalgamation of beasts? A chimera?Niyad made a mental note of Count's true form, the more details he noted the more his mind felt jumbled. ~The head of a fox, eight eyes, his two centermost tails were snakeheads, shiny fur the color of obsidian. Chains, what beast had chains? ~Just what exactly is he? I was disrespectful to this thing? How am I still alive? GULP~ Once more Niyad's mother pulled on her bow string and aimed. Niyad wanted to stop her but was interrupted by a deep voice pro
The Blenheim KingdomNora was angry as she glared at Sercy, "What do you mean Niyad isn't with you? I just sensed more than twenty new sovereign auras on the continent and you can't tell me where my son is?""I assure you Niyad is safe, he is currently on a mission with a hidden expert who has been with me for more than a century. He has the cultivation base of a Divine expert above the origin realm even stronger than myself"~Someone I was unable to sense?~ Information that Sercy thought would comfort Nora made her worry even more.Nora remained furious but reeled in her temper a bit. "You should know that being the minor lord doesn't mean you're the strongest person on Thorsus."Sercy became rigid at Nora's warning and was unable to mask her shock. Although she knew Nora wasn't normal, for her to know such things without being in the Divine realm..."I just hope Niyad is safe for your sake." were Nora's last words before she turned to leave. Once again Aliel was left dumbfounded by
Peter was shocked that even with his Azure Dragon blood and domain activated he was still being suppressed. The aura of the creature before him was enough to intimidate him, it even caused the image of the illusory dragon behind him to tremble. He realized that he couldn't depend on his instincts as much as he did before because the danger was now all around him. ~I need to act now if I want to survive this.~ With a roar he raised his arm and pointed it at the figure of Count in the distance, "DRAGON DESTRUCTION!" Peter yelled and all the divine energy he could muster accumulated in the illusory dragon behind him. In one swift movement the dragon shot around him and charged towards Count in the distance. The dragon transformed into waves akin to a tsunami and a loud rumbling sounded out as the dragon crashed into Count. Peter didn't stop there, he brought his hands up above his head and swirls of green Qi representing wind energy formed into cyclones. He then slammed the palms of h
Peter's hair stood on end, trusting his instincts, he quickly tilted his head to the side then glanced to the left. The clawed hand of a beast was suspended in a grabbing motion right where his had been a second before."F*cking Cockroach!" He heard someone behind him swear and he didn't hesitate to leap away quickly then twisted his body to get a good look at what it was that attacked him."As I thought, it's difficult to kill someone in the divine realm without using divine energy myself." Peter's eyes narrowed at the eerie figure that stepped out of the spatial tear.A grating sound rang out as it moved forward akin to chains being dragged along the floor. It wore robes with a familiar crest that represented the Blenheim Kingdom and a veiled hat that hid its face. Though it had the figure of a man, something told him that this thing was not human. He could feel an aura of death seeping from it.The creature moved a clawed hand to remove his hat revealing a bluish tinted face with br
The Sovereign realm cultivator wore an arrogant smile as he probed Niyad with his Qi sense. "Your aura is that of a third stage Sovereign realm expert, while that is abnormal talent for a kid like you, what makes you think you can stay alive after that declaration?" Niyad smirked, "You should know that A Divine tribulation expert is currently at the Azure Dragon palace assassinating your current lord, unless you want to be next, I'd advise you to choose wisely." "Divine tribulation? Don't let me laugh, that's impossible. Plus whoever it is won't make it out of the palace. Our current lord has the azure dragon blood running through his veins." ~What bullshit even if he had the blood of the divine turtle he would still die.~ Niyad was already annoyed, to him, the sovereign realm expert's looks were annoying, his clothes were annoying, even his voice was annoying. In one fluid moment he pulled his bow from his life space ring and notched an arrow. "Is your final answer no?" The Sove
The old man stared at Niyad like he was a lunatic and what a coincidence, he never felt more like a lunatic than he did today. "How did you find me?" The man finally said. Surprisingly, Niyad felt no hostility directed towards him, even after he had made such a ridiculous declaration. This encouraged him to be honest with the old man, "I didn't, Lua did." He replied pointing at the beast next to him.After eyeing Lua with slight interest the man scrunched up his nose then looked at Niyad like he was a pile of dung, "What kind of mad person thinks they can just go around ordering people to sign a soul contract? Your Queen must be batshit crazy." Niyad: "I..." He did expect a response similar to what he got albeit a little less vulgar. He wasn’t sure how to respond to the old man, because without any context, their sudden demands did sound ridiculous.~I should have gone to fight Kiro instead.~ Lua snorted and Niyad couldn't help thinking he was being laughed at. Feeling the urge
