Chapter 390: Fading away…
After several more hours, the hole in the black smoke wall had reduced to about a 2 meter radius, and so the speed at which the demons were entering the kingdom was greatly reduced.
Jayden stood closer to the hole to reduce the number, as the hole kept getting smaller, now he was only left with a quarter of his total internal energy, but without stopping Jayden kept fighting.
R2 had disappeared and Jayden didn’t use extra energy to use the clone skill again, and just fought along with just one Rakshasha, both of them had wounds all over their bodies, and the speed of recovery had slowed down by a lot, but now there was less number of demons since the entrance was getting smaller.
After some more time, the entrance have become so small that no demon was able to pass through it, but there were still many demons who had entered inside the kingdom, without stopping he began to slay them one by one, and the pressure he was feeling diminished slowly, also the number of demons were quickly reducing.
When Jayden killed the last Mind Demon, the hole had become so small that he was only able to see shadows from outside, he felt that he had seen this scene before, Jayden stood still and pressured his mind to remember what had happened in the divination.
” It has ended? ” Jia finally got closer to Jayden and asked, she took out several healing pills from her ring and passed them to Jayden hastily, with worried eyes she looked at all the deep wounds present on his body.
With a frown on his face, Jayden took the pills and threw them into his mouth, then a spirit slowly came near him and began to help him heal, with the help of pills and the spirit Jayden’s recovering speed became faster.
The Monarch Rakshasha stood some distance away and began to pick up all the stones that were present in the bodies of the demons, Jayden had given it a spatial ring, so it stored them all in the ring. As he stood silently Jayden eyes were drawn towards the small hole that was only a little bigger than a football.
” What’s wrong? Are there going to be more demons? ” She asked, clenching her ice sword tightly.
Shaking his head Jayden kept his eyes on the hole and asked:
” You are fine, right? And what about Xiao and Lao, have they started the cultivation in the yin field? ”
With a small sigh, Jia nodded and spoke:
” Both of them are fine, they were already in the training area that’s why they weren’t able to sense anything that happened here.
And yes I’m fine too, after I heard that loud roar, I came out to find out the situation outside and found that countless beasts had come out of the forest and were attacking everything that they came across.
After killing them I came here, now tell me, what had happened here? I have never heard of something like this happening in the hundreds of years of this Kingdom. ”
Jia asked, she looked at Jayden’s gaze and saw that he was still staring at the hole, seeing this Jia became cautious too.
” I’ll explain everything once we go back, I don’t know but I feel I am forgetting something. ” Jayden mumbled, and his last words were barely audible.
” What is that? ” Jia asked as she stared at the barely visible shadow through the hole, Jayden squinted his eyes and finally something clicked in his head as memories of the divination resurfaced in his mind.
He remembered how he fought there for hours, the battle in divination was quite similar to the real battle but because of divination, he was already aware that there was going to be an attack from the demons so they lost their surprise factor and Jayden hadn’t suffered as much as he might have otherwise.
Then he remembered that just like now when the size of the hole was less than a meter wide, the shadow of the divine beast changed just like now and then it shot a strange invisible arrow that contained space properties.
Jayden hastily looked towards the divine beast’s shadow and found that it was already in the form Jayden had seen it transforming into.
Then he remembered how that attack instead of aiming towards him, shot towards Jia and despite him using all his abilities he wasn’t able to save her.
He also remembered what Anna had told him about changing the future.
While all his memories came back, Jayden suddenly felt some kind of distortion in the space, he knew that the divine beast was going to launch a very strong attack.
Jayden’s mind raced, his Void skill wasn’t working, using time ability was useless right now since he could remember that even after using Time Manipulation he wasn’t able to stop that arrow.
A loud explosion sounded, Jia wasn’t fast enough to react to the attack, and Jayden couldn’t think of anything, both he and the Rakshasha were already near the trajectory of the attack, with a thought Rakshasha appeared in front of the invisible arrow.
Jayden knew that it wouldn’t be able to stop the attack, in the next instant he appeared in front of Jia holding his flaming sword tightly.
The speed of the arrow was a lot faster than Jayden’s speed, wherever it passed the space around it seemed to crack just like in the divination, in less than a second the arrow was already in front of the Monarch Rakshasha.
*ROOAAAARRRRRR*
With a loud roar, Rakshasha placed both of its hands in front of the arrow, it halted only for a quarter of a second before it pierced through its hands and then struck its chest, after which it pierced through the red fiend’s chest, as the Rakshasha began to fell forward and disappear slowly.
Jayden had expected this, taking a step forward he used all the energy in his body and filled it into the flaming sword crazily, then with a loud roar Jayden brought the sword down in a vertical slash, meeting the invisible arrow.
*BOOOOOOOOOOM*
Another explosion sounded and sparks and flames were thrown everywhere as the arrow stopped in its tracks.
Jayden felt both his hands trembling under the huge pressure placed on him, the space cracked and the cracks then extended towards the swords and his arms
*CRACK*
*CRACK*
*CRACK*
A loud Scream sounded as the flesh on Jayden arms began to tear apart, the sound of metal twisting sounded and cracks extended towards the purple sword.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
His hands twisted and then the swords broke into multiple pieces, the arrow again flew forward with the same speed and ferocity, Jayden used his hands as shields and tried to stop it by placing both his palms in front of it.
He mustered every bit of energy he could, as his body was completely dried off without even a tiny bit of energy in his body.
Jayden shouted and used all his strength to push the arrow back, the space kept cracking, and Jayden felt as if his entire body was being crushed under this attack.
His hands were cut into several pieces as the arrow shot forward and collided with his chest, with a shout Jayden held the arrow as it began to dig deep into his chest.
His entire body was being torn by the cracks that appeared around the invisible arrow, As the arrow dug a few inches into his chest it suddenly seemed to have hit something solid, no matter how much it tried to move forward it failed.
After a few seconds of trying the arrow seemed to have reached its limit, as it suddenly blasted, Jayden’s torso was being cut at several places, a strong air bullet was able to tear through Jayden’s chest and shot out from his back.
It was so fast that Jayden couldn’t even follow it with his eyes, it went straight towards Jia who was still behind him, the air bullet hit her throwing her body back several hundred meters away.
Jia’s heart was instantly shattered, and blood poured out from her mouth and nose, she hit a tree some distance away and finally stopped, a huge hole appeared in her chest as blood instantly painted her body red.
From some distance away, she stared at Jayden everything had happened so fast that she didn’t even know what had happened, life slowly began to disappear from her eyes, only because of her high cultivation was she still alive, but even she couldn’t survive her heart being shattered.
Jayden turned around, he was barely standing blood was gushing out from all over his body, and the cracks kept extended inside his body, destroying everything from inside.
He took a step forward and almost stumbled, just keeping his eyes open seemed impossible, his body was devoid of any energy so no matter what he tried nothing was working.
He could only watch as Xia was taking her last breath, his mind felt empty, Jayden wanted to rush forward and save her, but slowly darkness began to appear in front of his eyes, he felt as if scenes of his life were flashing in front of him.
Jayden lost all the strength in his body, and his consciousness began to fade, as his body was being tore into thousand pieces.
