There was a reason the Living Disaster couldn’t find the soul of the cobra it smashed. It hadn’t fought many creatures at the same level of power as it, but it still knew that it had to squash his soul. A Demonic Beast’s intelligence did not correlate to its tier, but as they got older and stronger, they would also get smarter. Some animals were far more intelligent than others, but unfor...
2020-11-18 21:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostThe cobra had already stopped moving, but that didn’t stop the giant tortoise. It closed the distance and lowered its massive head down like the boom of a crane. Its giant beak tore into the snake’s burned flesh. Like a bird with a worm, it was effortless for the massive monster to snip the rope-like creature into smaller chunks. It rooted around among the remains for a few moments and then...
2020-11-17 21:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe snake’s little spines were only a tickle against the tortoise’s thickly armored limbs. They were still somewhat resilient and the ground shifted as the huge foot pressed down. The sound of ice cracking rang out and the spines shattered beneath the inevitable descent of its huge leg and despite the uncomfortable sharpness pressing into the sole of its foot, the tortoise was quite pleased...
2020-11-13 21:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostOn the plus side, Sage wasn’t the only victim of the oncoming calamity. His many enemies in the area scattered like frightened rodents in the face of the giant monster’s destructive rampage. The sky turned black and soot rained down upon them. Cracks of unknown depth opened up beneath them, and worst of all the land around them turned to fire. Like a little taste of hell on earth.<...

On the plus side, the feeling was less extreme than the last time he’d performed this technique. Perhaps there were some channels in the mind he was opening up and it would only become easier each time he did it? Sage focused upon these as well as a few more questions to distract himself from the...
2020-11-11 21:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostAs he fled, Sage had traveled through a massive forest. Up hills and down into ravines and canyons. The ground cover had obscured his position and reduced the tortoise’s accuracy. He had to keep moving forward to prevent the other groups from catching up and taking shots at him. Unfortunately, the terrain started to change for Sage. The huge forest suddenly came to an end and spilled into a v...

Having caught up with him, Sage felt the number of pursuers increasing, the only problem being that they weren’t foolish enough to get tangled up with the natural disaster following him. Instead of getting killed by the giant tortoise, th...
2020-11-05 21:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostBy the time Sage ran into Whitestaff and her disciples, the Fu Clan realized what was going on. They’d come up to the crest of a hill and the molten boulders started flying their way again. It was another tactic the giant tortoise liked to use, launching molten projectiles up near the top of a mountain or hill so that it would come rolling down towards him. Many times it even caused a large l...

The fiery wasteland created in their wake made for an easy to follow trail, and despite how fast Ruanfu had been flying, he knew it was only a matter of time until his enemies caught up with him.
Maybe that’s not a bad thing.
The giant tortoise stayed on his tail, and despite not knowing why ...

2020-10-29 20:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostUnfortunately, the enemy wasn’t foolish enough to let the Soul Clone run rampant. They quickly moved to protect their weakened friends. Various consumable items were used up. Crystals smashed, Talisman ripped, Formation Plates deployed, and Magical Armor glowed. The Cultivators of this world were not as helpless against the Shard Rifles as the psychics of that other world had been. The shards...

The group with stringed instruments released physical soundwaves that cut the Dragoons apart, opening a wide hole through the Million Scale Shell. A weakness that was quickly taken advantage of by their enemies. The others that Hei Bai brought along as well as Whitestaff’s di...

She suddenly became something else, her tiny body replaced by a huge feathery white wyvern. She had the beak of an eagle and feathers instead of scales, but the huge tail and long sinuous neck made it obvious she was no bird. Huge feathers shot from her wings like spears towards the man, bursting through the aura of ...
2020-10-21 20:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostWhile running forward, Sage wondered what the significance of the enemies numbers was. Four groups of twenty five. What were they up to? If they were merely coming after him, arriving with smaller numbers could be explained. They might have brought only those at rank five or above to reduce casualties. Yet, that did not seem to be the case. He sensed more than a few of the enemies being in the ...

The raw material for his Soul Spawn. An egg that could hatch into his own current body. If he died, his soul could escape and enter the egg to be reborn anew. He didn’t have many of these eggs.

The Human Seal was not really a weapon. It sealed up a creature into the form of a human. For many creatures, a human body was an upgrade. Like all seals, the extent of the seal was based upon the purity of the crux it was formed with. Using the Timeless Eyes, with enough time, Sage could form a seal with 80% strength. That meant a sealed being would have only 20% left of their ori...

Hei Bai reached the skeleton and the ring. The ghostly red skull seemed to bob with excitement. At the same time, Sage stood in front of the giant scorpion and kept his gaze focused on that ghost. He called out behind him, “Xiezi, get Uncle Zhuo out of here!”

Neither side looked to be in good condition. The red skull was much dimmer than it had been earlier, and the huge cobra was missing a few feet off the end of its tail. They both seemed beat up and worn out, but there was also no signs that either were defeated.
Sage felt helpless.
He was a whole rank higher than Hei Bai when the battle started, but after the...

Sage didn’t have many weapons against a spirit type enemy. When the Soul Clone was rendered helpless, he had only a few arrays and his two Heavenly Flames to rely upon.

This old woman seemed to be quite well suited to dealing with him. This new form of hers was completely unaffected by physical attacks. While she was no longer surrounded by that vicious aura, Sage saw with Foresight that her attacks still carried the vicious power from before.

“You aren’t done yet?”
Sage’s voice was calm and even. He wanted her to know that this was only the tip of the iceberg. There were still many trump cards he had yet to play.

Unfortunately, he could only torment her so long. After dropping a half dozen rocks on her, Hei Bai finally seemed to have achieved a breakthrough.
