Chapter 382: Divination
He was holding the purple flame sword and kept waving it around with all his strength, but still, it was taking more than a couple of strikes to kill those beasts, and as time passed more and more wounds appeared on his body.
But now it seemed even his energy was running low as his healing ability had stopped, taking a small pause he tried using the Demonic Devouring arts, but Instantly found tens of energy sucking demons lunging towards him and not allowing him to refill his energy at all, their tentacles bit into his skin, rendering him unable to refill his stack of internal energy.
As his body fought, he also noticed that the black smoke which seemed to be broken before was slowly closing, Jayden couldn’t understand anything as countless thoughts went through his head, but one thing he was sure of was that it wasn’t any of kind of nightmare that the Divine beast was showing him.
‘ Maybe… What if it is a divination? ‘ this thought appeared in his mind and he couldn’t help but gasp in surprise, this was all happening because of his Fate skill.
Occasionally, Rakshasas would help Jia and she would stop any beast from running inside the kingdom, there were even those peak rank cultivators fighting their own fights against the strange demons that had infiltrated the kingdom from outside.
Minutes passed slowly, and the battle was becoming more and more fierce, Jayden’s condition was becoming worse but he was still hanging on, even the two Monarch Rakshasha were barely handling themselves, and they were also in similar situations as Jayden.
Hours passed, and the hole in the black layer was becoming much shorter to the point that one beast was barely able to pass through it, so the number of demons decreased by a little.
More time passed, and the hole became small enough that no beast was able to pass through it, so Jayden just fought the ones who had already crossed inside the kingdom.
It didn’t take long for all of them to kill all those demons, and by the time they finished the hole was only the size of a football, so no other beasts were able to pass through it.
Jayden felt his extremely exhausted body finally relaxing a little, he looked back at Jia with a tired smile and began to walk towards her, but just then he heard the screech of a beast.
*CRIEEEEEK*
He hastily turned around and saw the shadow of the Divine beast on the outside, it seemed that now it wasn’t able to cross into the kingdom, but Jayden still looked at it vigilantly, since after going out of the kingdom its strength had increased by a lot.
When the hole in the black wall shrunk to the size of a cricket ball, he saw that the shadow on the other side of the layer of black smoke seemed to change into something else, but Jayden wasn’t surprised since he already knew that the Divine Beast could change forms.
The hole was slowly closing, but Jayden didn’t take his eyes away even for a second, just then he felt an extremely strong aura and he immediately knew that the Divine beast was launching an attack.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOM*
With a loud sound, what seemed like an invisible arrow flew from outside the kingdom through the small hole and into the kingdom, its speed was so fast that Jayden was having difficulty following it even with his eyes, and wherever this invisible arrow passed it looked as if the entire space was getting cracked.
Jayden readied himself to dodge the attack, but he noticed that he wasn’t the target of this attack, as it headed straight towards Wang Jia, who couldn’t even see the attack, its speed was so fast that it was impossible for Jayden to move on his own, so he tried teleporting the attack away.
But it seemed his strength wasn’t strong enough to do anything to this attack, the invisible arrow kept moving towards Jia, so Jayden just teleported Wang Jia away from the trajectory of the arrow and teleported her beside him.
The moment Jia appeared beside him, the arrow disappeared from its original location and appeared right in front of Jia, Jayden’s eyes widened in shock, and he could do nothing but watch as the arrow went closer and closer to her skin.
” FREEZE ”
His body shouted and stopped the time, his eyes were glued to the invisible arrow and Wang Jia, but even after stopping the time, the arrow cracked the space and directly hit Jia’s heart, within seconds, cracks began to appear all over her body from inside.
That invisible arrow had space ability, and after going outside, the Divine beast’s ability had increased by a lot, so no matter what Jayden did, nothing seemed to work against it.
The time began to flow again, Jayden moved forward and caught Jia’s falling body into his arms, in less than a second life had completely disappeared from her eyes, all her internal organs were completely destroyed, and her energy centre had exploded inside her body, but since she didn’t have much energy right now, it didn’t blew off her entire body.
Her mind was destroyed, as blood came out from all over her body, Jayden’s eyes became blood shot and a beast like roar came out of his mouth as he held Jia’s bloody body in his hands.
His heart seemed to have stopped, and his mind could still not come to reality with her death, an overwhelming sadness filled his entire being.
******
Jayden’s eyes suddenly swung open, he breathed loudly and looked around from the small pit he had created earlier, Rakshasa’s towering figure was still standing beside him, he slowly sat up and tightly held his head, he was feeling a mind crushing headache.
It took him a few moments before he was able to think a little he looked around in confusion again and couldn’t understand what had just happened.
” Wh- Where am I? ” He spoke and found it hard to remember anything.
” What’s wrong? Did you suddenly have another nightmare while you were awake? ” Anna asked in a worried tone, but even she couldn’t believe that something like that could happen.
” Huh… Wait let me remember. ” Jayden said and focused his mind again, he slowly remembered why he came here and then he remembered about the message he saw just before falling onto the ground.
” Right, It happened because of that Fate skill, I was thrown inside my own body but everything around seemed different. ” Jayden said as slowly small pieces of memories came back into his mind.
” Was it divination? I think the Fate skill might have that but if it activated on its own then something big is definitely going to happen.
Anyway, I don’t know what exactly you saw in there, but it is almost impossible to change anything, there is a less than 0.0001 per cent chance that you will succeed in changing the events even if you have seen them, so be careful and also what did you see in there? ” Anna asked, after telling him her thoughts.
