บท 63: Davion is here?

The huge paw of the Lion came towards one of the elders. The elder slashed his saber horizontally and it collided with the paw. He felt as if he had struck an iron plate.

He felt a huge rebound force coming from it and was pushed a few meters back. The lion was about to catch him with his paw, but it felt an unknown danger coming from the side. So, it immediately side-stepped.

A red saber struck the place where it was previously and a huge shockwave was generated from there. A hole, a few feet deep, could be seen.

"What type of mess did you fall into, Thaddeus? I might get into trouble if I become careless here." The Lion was questioning Thaddeus who was on his back.

"I would have never summoned you here if I wasn't in this mess," Thaddeus was about to continue when he suddenly exclaimed.

"Watch your tails!"

The Lion immediately swept its tail, but it was still too late. A saber still managed to leave a deep gash and blue-colored blood was dripping from it.

"ROOOOAAARRR!!"

The Lion got really angry and a dark breath came out of its mouth. The breath started rotting the vitality of the trees, soil, and vegetation around it.

"Haha, we have successfully angered it this time." The elder who managed to hurt the Lion chuckled.

"Now, I don't think it might try to run away from here."

"Yeah, but it will be very difficult for us to fight now. It has become serious." The other elders looked solemn.

"There are three of us here and we have a clear advantage. Even though the Summoning Art is powerful, it consumes a lot of Qi. Especially for summoning a Devil Commander. As a result, Thaddeus wouldn't dare to come down and team up with the lion."

"So, we just need to hold on for some time. Then we will have our chance."

While they were discussing, the Lion had already closed the distance between them in a few seconds. It swung both of its claws in two directions which managed to land on the two of them. They tried to block it with their sabers but the momentum coming from those claws was too much for them to handle. As a result, both of them got thrown far away.

"Blood Saber Technique: First Move"

The remaining elder took this opportunity and swung his saber vertically to the neck of the Lion and managed to leave a deep wound on the neck of the Lion.

While the fierce battle was going on over there,

A red-robed disciple was leading the masked man towards the location of the battle. While moving, they heard a huge roar near them.

"Senior, this is already the second time that I have heard this roar. My elders are in that direction. But I do not know why there is a beast roar coming from that direction?" Indeed, he was very confused about it.

"Ok, just take me there." The masked man looked like he didn't care much about those elders or that beast.

"Let's not think too much about it. I just need to lead this person over there and run away. These people are all out of my league. Even that beast…" thinking about all the things he experienced today made him feel very insignificant. So, he just sped up.

The masked man followed behind him while in deep thought, "It looks like the Sect Master might be there. Also, that roar from the beast, was it summoned by him?"

"Hope he might be okay."

"It took me some long time to reach here from the city. If I was a few minutes late, then Hendrix and Isla might have been finished."

"This trip made me realize the need for a spiritual art that can boost my movement speed. I need to look for it in the future. This trip was such a pain in the ass."

"But it was worth it. I got space rings from those disciples. Not only that, I got experience points too. Now I am close to level 20."

Indeed, in the last month, he had already reached level 19 while killing those devils inside the Cultivation Pool. He even managed to use the extra experience points to learn all the spiritual arts of the Bone and Devil Sect.

Since his spiritual energy becomes stronger after every level up, the spiritual arts he uses also become stronger. This is the reason why he could simply crush those disciples in the late stage of Qi refining state as ants.

"I don't know whether I can fight a Golden Core Stage cultivator now. Not only that, I have never seen a fight between the cultivators in this state. So, I don't even know how strong they are."

"But I think I might be able to handle it."

He was also very eager to battle them.
