Run?How could a human’s running speed be faster than the speed of sight?Soon, all lingering remnants of souls in the area were all killed by Aria’s destructive power.Siogbhan Logunes saw from afar that the man called Cielo Regalia was still standing on the spot foolishly. Not only did he not escape, but he actually went against Aria directly.Siobhan Logunes shouted anxiously. Though they were competitors, he was not like Toshii Wanran. He wanted a fair fight without anyone dying. “Mister Cielo Regalia, run!”Cielo heard Siobhan Logunes’ shout, but he did not react.Siobhan Logunes closed his eyes when he saw that Aria’s gaze was about to land on Cielo. He could not bear to see Cielo die even when they were supposed to be his enemy and his greatest threat to advance to the Finals Round!At that moment, a majestic beastly roar resounded in the entire Avici Hell!Roar!Upon hearing this powerful roar, Siobhan Logunes’ stopped in shock. Xerxex Hiperia, who was a few kilometers from th
On the other side of the Avici Hell…The Wisp Queen could not kill Velicia even if she wanted to. When Velicia revived for the 118th time, all thanks to her contracted beast, both she and the Wisp Queen lost all their patience.Velicia’s unique skill was the Eternal Revival. No matter how many times she died, she would revive immediately. Of course, this was not an omnipotent skill. Like Cielo Regalia’s God’s Eyes, her Eternal Revival would cause her a backlash.The more she would use the Eternal Revival, the more she would feel a pain as if she was being eaten by millions of ants inside her bones. This was also one of the major reasons why she would use the wheelchair. It was because of the pains from her toes up to her kneecaps. Day in and day out, the suffering was forever.Eternal Revival… eternal pain.Should she keep on using the Eternal Revival, the pain would spread more in her body.The first time she used it, it was when she was young. The first time she revived, she regaine
Calling it by its name, she was answered by a deafening roar of her beast. Suddenly, a gigantic shadow loomed over her. Velicia’s line of vision was covered by a humungous body made of shining red scales.The second strongest guardian beast in the hidden clans – the fiery red dragon, Ling Long!“Swallow it.” Nudging her chin to the direction where the remains of the Wisp Queen lingered, Velicia commanded.Roar!As an answer to her command, Ling Long flapped his gigantic pair of red wings. Diving into the carcass, the area was soon filled with crunching and roaring sounds as Ling Long devoured the Wisp Queen’s body and energy core.Velicia cast a new domain around, this time it was much smaller than the previous one. She sat down, closed her eyes, and absorbed the energy – converting it to hers in the process, refilling her almost empty energy core rapidly.She could feel the warm surge of energy running down past her navel and it stayed right above her pelvic area where her energy cor
It was Rito!It was common knowledge that Cielo, the top genius of the Regalia Clan of the Hidden Families, had awakened and contracted the clan’s guardian beast during the Claiming that was not meant for him – he practically gate-crashed and still got away with it. His contracted beast was a powerful black serpent that even her Ling Long was wary of for some reason ever since the two beasts met countless years ago!After realizing that the injured person in the broken pagoda might be Cielo, Velicia, who wanted him to fight his own battles, changed her mind.Velicia would not allow any room for regrets. Never.He was clearly the crème de la crème of the Hidden Families that could ward off the ambitious Free Cities and Major Tribes, but he didn’t have the arrogance that the supposed peerless geniuses should have.Despite not knowing who she was, Cielo Regalia showed benevolence to her. Though he did it as a friend, the complete opposite of what she felt for him, Velicia still appreciat
Xerxex Hiperia, who was sporting tattered and bloodied combat gear, remained silent. Unmoving from his spot, his eyes flashed with deep hatred and greed.Cielo cursed in his mind as he subtly summoned his God’s Eyes. On cue, his eyes flashed with a deep blue glow.Ping![ENEMY: XERXEX HIPERIA]Ping![KIND: HUMAN, BEAST TAMER]Ping![BRIEF BACKGROUND: ONE FIGHTER OF THE HIPERIA TRIBE. HE IS THE SON OF THE HIPERIA TRIBE’S GREAT CHIEF. HE IS THE TOP FIGHTER AMONG THE PRODIGIES OF THE MAJOR TRIBES.]Ping![UNIQUE SKILL: NONE. BEAST TYPE DID NOT MEET THE STANDARD FOR A UNIQUE SKILL]Ping![ATTACK FORCE: SACRED TIER (CLASS A)]Ping![STRENGTH: STRATEGY. MIND GAMES.]Ping![WEAKNESS: SURPRISE ATTACK]“You are finally using your God’s Eyes.” Xerxex Hiperia sauntered forward, slowly and arrogantly closing the distance between them. “Too bad that you were not able to use it during your fight with the witch. It would have served me a purpose.”Cielo’s grip around Velicia as he carried her had ti
As soon as Cielo Regalia held Velicia Aberon, the space and time around them distorted. What was once a red sky was replaced by the stale gray roof of the arena. What was once an eerie silence of the Avici Hell was replaced with the bombarding noise and cheers from the audience and the staff.Cielo Regalia immediately adjusted his senses upon knowing that there was no more unexpected danger lurking around him. He also noticed that Rito had come back to him. What was left standing on the big stage at the center of the arena was Cielo Regalia who was carrying the sleeping Velicia Aberon.The same ol’ announcer sauntered toward Cielo with a microphone in her hand. With a big grin on her made-up face, she announced. “The victors of the Semifinals Round finally came out!”Cheers and boos clashed.“We have witnessed how Cielo Regalia fought head-on with Avici Hell’s witch number one while Velicia Aberon fought head-on with Avici Hell’s witch number two!”Realization dawned upon Cielo Regali
As soon as Cielo Regalia and Velicia Aberon followed the Pavilion Master, they stopped minding the hatred-filled gazes from the opposing factions even from the other Hidden Families such as the Satova Clan and the Ruen Clan.Pavilion Master turn around and looked at the calm-looking warriors whom he had approved of ever since he had lost hope hundreds of years ago. He handed them an emergency survival bracelet on their right wrists. He reminded the two. “If you encounter any trouble that you can’t solve, call me. I will come to save you. But of course, it will also mean that you are forfeiting the chance to get any cultivation technique. Once a person enters, they will not be able to enter twice. Each person got only one chance in their lives.”Velicia touched her bracelet and acknowledged it. Then, she walked towards the Mysterious Ancient Pavilion with firm footsteps with Cielo Regalia in tow.The Mysterious Ancient Pavilion was open to all the beast tamers and warriors without any
In the deep valley, Cielo Regalia stuck his upper body onto the bird’s back. He bit his index finger and dripped a drop of blood into the bird’s eye. The bird resisted violently and almost threw Cielo off its back.Cielo quickly mobilized the energy in his body and forcefully formed a temporary contract with it while ignoring the bird’s resistance. After successfully merging his core with Rito’s, temporary contracts with beasts with tiers under Witch Tier (Class C) were possible already.Under Cielo Regalia’s powerful energy pressure, the resistance in the bird’s core became weaker and weaker until it completely disappeared. It was completely subdued by him in a matter of minutes.After the contract was completed, Cielo controlled the seven-colored bird to shuttle among the light clusters and began to choose the cultivation technique he liked.On the cliff, Velicia Aberon and Ling Long saw Cielo’s actions and widened their eyes in shock before Velicia smiled at herself. There was a hi
