Chapter 381: Stone
The snake was orange in colour and had a similar pattern on its body just like the flower petals.
*HISSSSSSSSSSS*
‘ It must be the guardian of this plant. ‘ Jayden thought, and he took out the plant from the ground.
Before the aura and smell of the flower could travel far, Jayden placed it in his spatial ring.
Seeing his treasure getting stolen, the snake beast became even more enraged, it roared and charged towards Jayden, opening its jaw wide, but suddenly Ravan jumped in front of it, forcing it to stop its charge abruptly.
Jayden stood calmly and watched the battle, the giant snake whipped its tail towards the Ravan, who simply caught it.
*FSSSSSSSHHHHHH*
But the beast didn’t seem surprised at all by the red fiend’s strength, as it launched its jaw towards Rakshasa’s neck.
Moving one hand, Rakshasa stopped the snake’s head, but the beast suddenly released some kind of white smoke towards the Rakshasa’s chest, who wasn’t able to defend against it and could only let it hit its skin.
Jayden observed everything without much care, but even he was surprised by the effects of the white smoke, when the smoke settled down, he clearly saw that the skin on Rakshasa’s chest was petrified.
” That’s a unique beast, do you know anything about it, Anna? ” Jayden asked, keeping its eyes on the beast.
“…” Anna stayed silent, and wondered about his question, Jayden wasn’t in a hurry as he waited patiently.
The Rakshasa kicked the beast away, its skin began to heal but the process was very slow, so Jayden decided to test a few things.
” MONARCH RAVAN ”
As he commanded, the Ravan entered the Monarch form, the snake beast was now seemed surprised by the aura coming from the red fiend, instantly Monarch Ravan flashed in front of it, but because of Jayden’s command it didn’t attack the beast immediately, instead it let the snake bit it’s shoulder.
There were no emotions on Monarch Ravan’s face as several sharp fangs were thrusted into its skin, and drops of purple blood began to slowly flow from it, this was the first time Jayden had seen it get injured so he was a little surprised by its blood colour.
Jayden noticed that around the area of the orange beast’s fangs, the skin of Monarch Ravan was petrifying but because of its healing ability, its skin was getting healed immediately, therefore the poison was getting detoxified Instantly after travelling out of its mouth.
The beast wrapped its giant body tightly around the Monarch Ravan trying to kill him by squeezing, but the beast was no match for the fiend, who just stood there without the slightest bit of motion.
‘ Its poison is killing body cells, but that’s not all, it is somehow managing to turn them into something that looks like stone, but since this snake is weak it can’t overcome the healing properties of Rakshasa, I guess that’s all I can find out about it from observing. ‘ Jayden thought, after staring at the snake beast for a few minutes.
” I think this beast must have lived here for quite a long time, and maybe it mutated after eating that plant and got this type of special poison, anyway just take the important body parts from that snake, they might be helpful in the future. ” Anna’s voice sounded in his head, she also seemed interested in this strange occurrence.
” Mm hmm, alright finish it off. ” Jayden nodded and then commanded.
Raising one of its hands, the Monarch Ravan suddenly hit the snake’s head and destroyed its brain instantly, the giant beast who was at the peak of Sprit strengthening realm was dead in less than a second.
” Its strength is always a surprise, I think it could defeat even me in less than five minutes. ” Jayden mumbled after seeing the strike, then he commanded the Rakshasha to return back to normal and then take out the important parts from the snake like its skin and poison pocket.
” Everything is finished here, but when can I start the creation of poisons? ” Jayden asked as he observed his surroundings, he wasn’t in a hurry to go back.
” There are only a few more ingredients left to collect, then you will be able to create them, but I can promise that the result will be worth the wait. ” Goddes Damuda said, the poison formulas that she had were all high grade poisons, that are famous all across many planets and are extremely potent.
Though Jayden’s version of poison won’t be as much effective as it could be with strong herbs, but he will always have the option to upgrade them, but they will be much more than enough for his current self.
Jayden rose into the sky and began to fly back, but just then a message popped in front of him and his mind became blank, without any control over his body he fell down, creating a small pit in the ground.
[ ACTIVATING FATE ]
Jayden couldn’t understand the sudden turn of events, while he was lying on the ground he unconsciously summoned Rakshasha who stood beside him defensively, and before Jayden could do anything his eyes closed and darkness consumed his consciousness.
******
Cries and howls of beasts rang out from all around, Jayden found himself standing at the boundary of the beginning kingdom, he stood right under the layer of black smoke, but now there was a big hole in that layer of smoke.
And now he was vaguely able to see the environment outside though everything was still a little hazy because of the thick fog, there were trees each one reaching too high into the sky, and all of them were somewhere around a 20 floor building tall.
But Jayden didn’t have much time to think about the scenery outside, just then he noticed that he was surrounded by corpses, his entire body was painted black with the blood of the demons, he looked at the bodies lying around him and found that he was able to recognise a couple of demons among them.
There were the Mind demons just like the ones that he had once fought in the golden bamboo forest, though at that time the Mind demon was injured and still Jayden was barely able to win against it by tricking it and using an explosive.
The second was the type of beast that he had seen in the giant tree, from where he has gotten his Asura bracelets, that beast had almost sucked all of Jayden’s internal energy, but now there were hundreds of such beasts.
There were many other kinds of gruesome looking beasts, his body was moving on its own and killing one beast after another, and both the Rakshasas were in the Moanch form and were fighting the Demons separately, stopping anything from stepping into the kingdom.
He also noticed that there were cries of battle even from his back, when he tried to focus he found that it was Wang Jia, who was fighting one of the demons and was barely holding on with the help of the ice sword Jayden had given her.
