Chapter 130: Survive me
Evan used his eyes of all things to look inside the soul of Celestina and found her soul was changing, and taking a form of a human.
But what alarmed him wasn’t that her soul was taking the form of a human, but what was happening inside of it.
‘What’s that…?’
Inside her soul, a golden spear was taking it’s shape. It was a bit dim, but was slowly gaining a divine aura as Celestina’s soul took shape.
[Don’t worry, host. It’s a good thing for her. Seems you will get another person with a high potential.]
‘That’s an inheritance, but of who?’
[You will find out soon.]
Evan didn’t ask anything further, an inheritance is something that is left behind by someone’s ancestors and it’s a good thing in most of the cases, but not in all.
Some try to take over the body of their descendants and become alive once again. But Evan didn’t feel any malice coming from the spear, so he decided to let it be for now, if something happens with Celestina, then he will take care of it, even though he isn’t strong, he can just destroy the inheritance from his knowledge.
After checking on Celestina, Evan looked at Anna as well, contrary to Celestina, she looked a bit restless, she wasn’t cultivating properly, her mind was going through a lot of things, most of it were from what she saw inside the chambers.
Evan then thought for a while and tapped on her shoulder. Anna opened her eyes hurriedly.
Her face turned red when she saw that Evan was infornt of her, she was just fantasizing about Evan.
“W-w-what do…”
“Come with me.” Evan didn’t let her say anything and just commanded her to follow him.
Without saying anything further, he walked away firm there. Anna out her hands in her heart and smacked her head.
‘Fool, what was I thinking?’
She thought, trying to clear out any improper thoughts that she just had, but deep down she actually wanted all of that to happen to her.
Without saying anything further, she quietly followed behind him.
Both of them stopped after reaching the training hall, where Evan and Nova fought few hours earlier.
Anna patiently waited for Evan to speak up.
Evan went to pick up two wooden swords form the shelf, and threw one towards Anna who catched it easily.
“Your mind is too restless right now. There are many thoughts running inside your brain, if a cultivator cannot focus on cultivating and instead derails from the path of cultivation, then he will suffer a Qi deviation and end up dying or becoming a cripple.” Evan said with a blank expression.
His words were firm and Anna’s heart became restless at the thought of dying.
“Unless you calm your heart, you cannot cultivate properly. And if you can’t cultivate, then you will only become a liability for all of us, I may even have to abandon you.”
Evan’s cold word made her shudder, her eye trembles and with a shivering voice, she said,
“N-no…”
But not letting her finish, Evan spoke again,
“A battle always help to make someone focus.”
*Swish*
Then Evan revealed his demonic form, his majestic wings spread wide open, two sharp deep black horns came out from his head.
Anna trembled seeing Evan like that, but with fear there was an another emotion inside her right now.
“Don’t think of this as just a friendly spar we did before, I did that to teach you some basic things, but now, you might get hurt as well, so come at me with the intention to kill, I will do the same as well.”
Saying that, e an didn’t give her nay moment and attacked her with his sword. He flapped his wings and appeared infornt of Anna instantly and swing his sword directly at her head.
Anna took a moment to ready herself, and barely managed to block the attack.
Evan didn’t used any of his abilities, not even his mana but that force was still enough to push Anna a few steps back. Her sword also cracked after bearing the force of Evan.
“That was just to earn you, now you should be able to understand if I am serious or not. In a battlefield your enemy won’t give you any chance to ready yourself, you should be prepared for everything and any attack that might come your way. Not only that, you might even face enemies far stronger than you, but even then, you shouldn’t cower… but grab your sword tightly, and be ready to face him with everything you have, a person’s true strength isn’t determined by their body, their potential or anything, it’s determined by their will to survive, if someone really wants to survive, then he will do anything possible. Now, show me that you can do it as well. Survive from me…”
Evan said coldly, his voice fell heavily on Anna’s heart. But Evan didn’t stop at just that, he was right now truly determined to make Anna strong, his way might not work on others, but with Anna, it will for sure. Rather than her cultivating, she will grow faster with battles.
He then without holding back released his murderous intent. A thick bloody miasma filled up the entire hall, engulfing all of it.
Anna began to sweat and felt that she couldn’t even breath properly within that murderous aura. A cold sweat ran down her back when she felt that her body was tearing apart.
Even though, she knew it was an illusion, she still felt the pain of her body tearing apart.
‘The illusion technique created after imitating the the divine illusionary butterfly, a creature that is considered a mythical creature. It has the ability to cast illusion that not only works on vision but to all senses. Making a fake scenario and manipulating it’s prey is it’s speciality. This technique is just like that, it also affects the senses, and even if the person realizes that they are in an illusion, they can’t break from it. But I know, she will.’
Anna gritted her teeth, the pain that her brain was going through was excruciating.
She soon realized that she can’t break free form this illusion easily, so she decided to copy it, if she knew this technique then she can undo it as well.
Her ability soon showed it’s effect, just taking a glance was enough for her to realize the technique and learn it and the more she focuses, the more faster she can learn it.
“Hmm, seems you are getting the hang of it… this will be a bit interesting now.”
Evan commented seeing that, Anna was slowly getting free from the illusion.
She clenched her teeth and growled, trying her hardest to free herself from the illusion and it worked. She freed herself form that illusion.
But Evan didn’t let her have any rest and attacked her with his demonic flames.
Anna who just got freed from the illusion, her face brightned up from the demonic flames and with a single glance, she knew it wasn’t n illusion.
She tried to step back, but it was already too late…
The demonic flames engulfed Anna. It burned down everything in it’s path.
Anna stood still inside the flames, and smoke began to come out form the flames.
Seeing that, Evan smirked and said,
“So you are finally going to show your abilities right? It was a good choice to use the ability you copied form Jay.”
The smoke or to say the vapour that was coming from the flames was actually from ice getting melted and turning into vapour.
Ice control.
The ability of Jay that Anna copied was a perfect counter for the demonic flames that Evan was using, but was that actually enough?
Obviously not.
Evan increased the intensity of the flames and even the ice wasn’t enough to stop his flames anymore.
Anna, who couldn’t bear the heat any longer jumped out from the flames, she was staying there till now to learn the demonic flames, but it was too difficult for her.
Evan turned to look at Anna that just came out form the swirling flames.
She was soaked wet, not just with her sweat but also with melting of the ice. She covered her entire body with ice and tried to survive those flames, but she soon felt it to be unbearable.
Her clothes were tightly attached to her. The wet shirt allowed Evan to see her slender skin and her perky and soft breasts that were covered up with a blue bra.
