Chapter 384

"Master, you must kill that snake!"

The Earth Spirit, who merged with the newborn Spirit, talked for the first time in a long time . Ever since it secured its life and became much stronger by becoming a Tri-Spirit, it became satisfied and no longer tried to cause trouble to Arthur .

In fact, it already acknowledged him as its master . Hearing it talk, Arthur was startled before saying

'Why?'

"If it can rule such a dangerous place then it must be old . It must have lived for more than twenty thousand years . If I can absorb its core, not only would it strengthen me, it can significantly raise your cultivation . "

Arthur remained silent, pondering about to do . It's quite risky to try and kill the snake, if that's even possible . The lord of this place is surely strong, strong enough to make the leader of the Golden Earth Sect offer him crystals for protection .

However, the rewards are enticing, to say the least . He had been stuck in the God Realm for long enough . He needs to rush to Sovereign Realm before doom comes knocking on his door .

Upon becoming a Sovereign, he has two Divine Beasts to possess along with the ancestors of the Mirage Era Hall and that's excluding the other normal corpses laying in his storage .

His power would spike and the probability of defending against the White Specter Clan will increase .

"It is a good opportunity but don't rush your decision . Get the girl first . "

Claud joined the conversation but didn't much . After uttering such words, he went back to being silent . As for Arthur, he thought things through and decided to follow Claud's advice . After all, his main priority should be Lisa .

Once he brings her into a safe place, he'll go back to kill the local snake, hopefully .

"I should be able suppress it with Gravity Magic and Death Storm . However, it'll be up to you to kill it . "

The Earth Spirit already planned everything out . Using its powerful Gravity Magic, it'll limit the snake's movement and weakened periodically with Death Magic . Since it'll be busy doing two things at once, Arthur will have to rely on his arsenal to finish the enemy .

Vyncent, who watched the silent Arthur with a bit of fear and confusion, chose to be quiet and wait for the other party to talk .

"Where do you think this 'top disciple' you spoke of is . "

Vyncent took but a moment to give an answer:

"It should be in the vicinities of the mountain . As I said earlier, the Earth Energy here is pure and thick, going further away will only limit the effects of the sacrifice . "

Arthur nodded his head and added:

"Alright let's go find him . If things get problematic, you'll bring her to the capital and hide their, understood?"

Before Vyncent could reply or react, decaying grey energy emanated from Arthur's hand and entered the young man's body . It felt as if an invisible hand of death that was grasping his heart, ready to burst it at any given moment .

Feeling the presence of Death inside his body, Vyncent's body momentarily trembled and looked at Arthur with a begging expression

"Understood?"

Vyncent is a person who places his own survival above everything else . Arthur had to make sure that Lisa is safe and the only way to do that is to threaten him so that if he dies, he dies with her .

No matter where he is, with but a thought from Arthur, Vyncent die .

Very soon, the two of them left the majestic city and headed toward the big mountain . Thanks to Vyncent, they bypassed the illusion formation and started searching for any signs of life .

Vyncent said that Arthur would feel strong fluctuation of Energy when they're closer to the place of sacrifice . Relying on his Sixth Sense and map, Arthur searched every nook and cranny .

The base of the mountain was wide and the area was big and dangerous even for Divine Beings . The God Beasts hiding there are extremely powerful and threatening .

If not for Arthur accompanying him, Vyncent wouldn't dare tread into this place . In fact, in more than one occasion, they would meet a Fire God Beast which will frighten poor lil' Vyncent .

To his absolute astonishment, before it could even leap at them, the God Beast would either lifelessly fall on the ground or turn into a bloody mist .

He didn't know how Arthur did it, but it was a swift and silent death . After one hour, more or less, the duo climbed half the mountain, which led to their encounters with the God Beasts to drastically increase .

Obviously, they were no threat to Arthur, who finally managed to sense something unusual .

At first, it was just a small feeling, however, the Earth Spirit, which is much more sensitive than him, confirmed his suspicions .

The Earth Spirit described it as a cyclone of Pure Earth Energy rising to the heavens . It was strengthening by the sect and it the place of the sacrifice was concealed by a powerful formation .

Arthur suddenly halted his steps and said

"You hide here . With my signal, you'll take her and immediately run . "

Vyncent nodded his head several times and melted in the ground .

"Be careful, the snake is overseeing the sacrifice too . I think it's beneficial for it too . "

'Tsk!'

Hearing this, Arthur clicked his tongue in annoyance and disappeared into nothingness . Using the Space Bender title, he entered a space dimension and approached the formation .

When he was close enough to see it with the [The All Seeing Eyes], he raised both of his hands, both of which emitted countless black lightning streaks that instantly enveloped the whole formation .

It took the Demonic Lightning fifteen seconds to completely shatter the formation and showing Arthur a marvelous sight .

The cyclone was bigger than the whole mountain, it dispersed the clouds and absorbed the Earth Energy in the surroundings .

The shattering of the formation alerted both the snake and the person who kidnapped Lisa . Arthur didn't waste any second, the moment he got rid of the formation, he flew straight at the disciple, arriving next to him almost instantaneously .

Though this top disciple of Golden Earth Sect was decently strong, being a 1st Grade God, he was no match for Arthur, who was like a reaper .

By the time the top disciple, who was actually a man in his twenties with long and golden hair, turned around to see what's going on, a Dark Spear already impaled him on the ground . He was dead within a second, which frightened the company he had .

Actually, this crafty disciple didn't only kidnap Lisa but also several others who are perfect for a mass sacrifice . If it had succeeded, he would have become a 7th or 8th Grade God, which would make him the strongest youngster in the Green-Leaf Realm .

The energy cyclone, which lost its controller, became chaotic and on the verge of dispersion .

"I think I can absorb it but I can't be disturbed . "

The Earth Spirit stated its intention and began channeling its powers . Like a vacuum, the golden Earth Energy was absorbed inside of Arthur .

The first dose made him breakthrough instantaneously, however, that was only the beginning . The problem was staying still and not disturbing the Earth Spirit, which is something easier said than done .

Arthur already spotted Lise and other girls . Half of them died and the other half were greatly weakened and unable to even lift a finger .

Like a ghost, Vyncent appeared from the ground and held Lisa before disappearing again, all in less than five seconds . As for the other girls, they wanted to beg him but he disappeared too quickly .

Arthur couldn't sacrifice a lot of energy to save each and every one of them but he was still able to give them a slight push .

With a wave of his hand, he mass-teleported them at the base of the mountain . It's up to their luck if they survive this disaster or not .

Literally a second after the girls were teleported away, the whole mountain violently shook . Arthur could feel a pair of venomous eyes stare at him from the peak of the mountain . Despite his immunity to fire, he could feel his body heating up .

A strange cubic was floating right next to him, it madly absorbed the earth energy . This was the Tri-Spirit, who left its master's body . He has to resist the snake and being inside his consciousness while he's fighting isn't optimal .

"I will need a minute, at most!"

The Earth Spirit said as he felt a looming presence cover the whole mountain . A gigantic shadow appeared from within the volcano at the peak of the mountain . With a length of over 200m and a thickness of 30m .

The snake was frightening and imposing, the pressure it emanated was overwhelming, causing Arthur to remember his fight against the Divine Beasts .

His cultivation has reached the 5th grade of God Realm and it showed no signs of stopping . With the absence of Makaze and the support of the Tri-Spirit, Arthur has to rely solely on himself to kill the snake .

Escaping from such an entity is possible but he can't just leave the Tri-Spirit, moreover, he has to buy sometime for Vyncent so that he can distance himself from this dangerous zone .

The hundreds of God Beasts hiding in this mountain scattered in all directions, not wanting to suffer from the snake's wrath .

Two wings appeared behind Arthur, one as beautiful as an angel's and the other similar to a bat's . He flew in the air, facing the snake directly .

The two stared at each other for a few seconds before the large beast opened its mouth and spat a sea of flames that covered the whole sky .
