Chapter 303: Facing the Divine Beast
The two beasts were about to come out of the two red bamboos, Jayden slowly landed on the ground and looked forward with a serious expression, as he had expected two horse like beasts came out and this time both of them had the nether fire on half of their bodies while the other half was covered by the Yin energy.
” Here goes nothing. ”
Jayden muttered and began to walk towards them, with a loud roar both the beast
charged towards him, Jayden raised one of his hands slightly and points it towards the beasts, before saying:
” DEMONIC DEVOURING ARTS- ETERNAL SUFFERING ”
The beast must have sensed the danger as one of them tried to teleport again, but it was already too late, all the place around those two was filled with a bubbly red fluid, and countless hands immediately began to pull both the beasts inside, digging the fingers into their skin.
*ROAAAAAARRRRRR*
*ROAAAAAARRRRRR*
The beasts roared in agony, but all their efforts were futile, whether they used Nether fire or Yin energy or even teleportation, nothing worked.
It was as if Jayden could almost feel how painful of an experience they were having just by their screams but he didn’t feel any pity for them, just as half of their body had sunken into the red liquid, the entire forest began to shake, cracks appeared in the sky, as if it was made of glass that was about to shatter.
Jayden stood with vigilance, it seemed as if the entire forest was in pain, the bamboo began to break and fell over over one another, a loud screaming sound rang out all around like thousands of people were screaming at the same time and the sky was now filled with cracks even hiding all the sunlight.
” What’s going on? Is it over? ”
Jayden muttered and then suddenly just as entire bodies of the beasts disappeared into the red liquid, the whole place began to break, and within seconds everything became dark to be just went back to normal in the next second.
Jayden looked around in confusion, he was standing on the ground where he was standing before cutting the red bamboos and it seemed like he had never cut the bamboos, but now seeing them both, they were both burnt and in pieces.
” What’s going on-? ”
Looking around confusedly, his eyes landed on the eagle sitting in front of him over 20 or so metres away, it looked at him in surprise as if it wasn’t expecting Jayden to come out so soon, or maybe never.
Jayden was instantly on high alert as he readied himself for an attack, but the eagle in front of him acted as if nothing was wrong, clearly, it wasn’t taking Jayden seriously at all.
‘ Anna, how long was I out for and did this beast do something to me? ‘ Jayden asked in his mind while he stared at the divine beast in front of him.
” It’s only been a few seconds, and no it hasn’t done anything to you yet, also even if it is taking you lightly, you wouldn’t be able to defeat it with your current strength, so it would be better to get away from it. ” Anna said, warning him.
‘ But this shitty thing had been toying with me, I am going to kill it no matter wha- ‘
Jayden muttered in his mind and was about to attack but Anna’s words stopped him.
” Don’t let your killing intent take over your head, these aren’t your thoughts it is happening because this Divine beast had been constantly altering your mind, your emotions, this anger don’t you remember something from it? ”
Anna reminded him, her tone was firm.
Jayden’s movements and thoughts halted, and his mind drifted towards the experience he had when he saw Caleb, his own anger for some reason reminded him of Caleb, and for a moment he felt afraid that if he couldn’t control himself properly he might actually become something that would not be able to differ between his enemy and family.
Jayden didn’t know what to do, he still didn’t have enough strength to kill this beast but if he waited for too long, he wouldn’t be himself and might become unrecognisable without even knowing it.
*CRIEEEEEEEEK*
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
Just when Jayden was deep in thought, The eagle roared loudly and disappeared from its place, he didn’t even have the time to think when he felt some thing suddenly hitting him, his body was thrown back more than two hundred metres, his entire body was aching badly, a big hole appeared in Jayden’s chest, big enough that an arm could pass through his body to the other side.
The eagle had gone through his chest, leaving a see through hole, Jayden felt terrible even though his wounds immediately began to heal, he coughed loudly and turned his head to see the eagle eating a piece of his flesh.
Its eyes glowed as it tasted Jayden’s blood and flesh, Jayden could sense the killing intent of the eagle directly towards him, it was almost suffocating and nothing like anything he had ever experienced.
Before the beast had no intention of killing him, but now it seemed as if it wanted to devour Jayden alive.
” Fuck, COUGH COUGH why is it s- still so fast? Wasn’t its strength supposed to be suppressed by more than 90 per cent? ”
Jayden asked as he wiped off the blood off his mouth and stood up with a little difficulty.
” Its original strength depends on Bael’s strength, so even with all the restrictions there is no one in this Kingdom who can defeat it, and even if all the people in this Kingdom try to attack it together, they wouldn’t be able to defeat it. ”
Anna said, Jayden finally stood and looked at the hungry expression on the divine beast’s face.
” Any tips? ” Jayden asked as he used his Void skill, sensing even the smallest movements.
Jayden knew that the beast in front of him wasn’t taking him seriously at all, so it would just attack him like earlier, then he thought of something and decided to gamble.
” Anna it was nice knowing you, haa in the end I wasn’t able to see just how beautiful you are. ” Jayden said, with a smile.
Anna didn’t reply, she knew he wasn’t someone who was going to give up so easily, she waited patiently to see what he was going to do now, in front of an enemy that was a lot stronger than him.
Jayden stood straight and even moved his hands behind his back as if he really had given up, Anna became worried and confused, as she watched him.
Closing his eyes, Jayden stood tall, with his blood stained clothes, the Divine beast also looked at Jayden strangely, but it understood that Jayden had given up already, with a loud cry, it again launched itself towards his heart, trying to get another piece of his delicious meat.
Jayden sensed the beast coming towards him at an incredible speed, that was much higher than his own, but he just stood there with his eyes closed.
