章節 12: Something Unexpected.
...
Putting force on his legs, Araw's figure suddenly hurls forward with a swift speed, creating a whirl of wind behind him as the distance between him and the deer instantly shortened.
With eyes filled with anger and pain, watching those fruits that he had spent effort cultivating entered someone else's stomach, Araw immediately opened his arms, intending to catch the still unfocused deer.
Shing!
Heigh-
Surprisingly, before he could lay his hand toward the body of the deer...
The unfocused eyes of the deer, containing a tint of deep green, suddenly glinted with a strange light—tilting its head as it suddenly started at the figure of Araw, which was less than meters away from it in surprise.
"Got you!"
Seeing that his hand was about to touch the neck of the deer, Araw revealed a victorious smile on his face, already thinking how he would punish the deer for stealing some of his fruits... Even entertaining the thought of directly killing it in order to enjoy its flesh.
However, as his hand was about to touch the deer's body, a sudden change that caused Araw's eyes to widen unfolded in front of him.
The deer, which was already within his grasp, suddenly turned blurry!
Vanishing within his line of sight in an instant before mysteriously appearing from the corner of his eyes... As if the thing that he had seen earlier was merely a product of his imagination!
Swoosh!
As Araw's mind was filled with confusion and fear from the unexpected event, an intense wind suddenly materialized from the previous location of the deer — instantly slapping his body with great force, causing his body, which was in mid-air, to hurl in the distance before heavily falling toward the ground with a loud thud.
"How is that possible?! It... It already entered the transcended grade!"
Fortunately, although he was caught off guard earlier, Araw hadn't sustained any serious injuries—only scrapping part of his skin and only revealing parts of his flesh.
With healing paste, he believed that the wounds would heal in just one day.
...
"But..."
Upon regaining his balance, Araw immediately stared at the deer, tens of meters away from him, in shock and wariness. Unable to comprehend how the deer managed to achieve the transcended grade in just a short month.
Even though the quality of the spiritual qi in this place surpassed the outside, this deer shouldn't have reached the early stage of transcended grade in the next couple of months, causing him to glance at the incomplete fruits within the small tree in doubt.
"Impudent!"
Swish!
Seeing that the deer was again attempting to close the distance between it and the incomplete fruit hanging within the tree, clearly intending to finish what it had done, Araw immediately rushed toward its direction, attempting to subdue it with his superior strength.
In an instant, the earth beneath him suffered a dent—signifying Araw's seriousness—causing dust to rise from the ground as he approached the deer in the distance.
Unsurprisingly, after closing his distance toward the deer by less than a meter, the color within the eyes of the deer again deepened, swirling akin to a whirlpool as its little physique again blurred within Araw's line of sight.
"A transcended beast with wind skill?"
Much more observant than before, Araw immediately notices that the hooves of the deer release a flicker of green before it completely vanished, seemingly being augmented by the wind as its speed increases unimaginable...
To the point that his senses couldn't keep up with it.
"Since that was the case, I can only wait till this deer's stamina runs low; with its current realm, I don't believe that it could continuously use that skill!"
Boom!
Unfortunately, before Araw could unfold a cold smile on his face, quite happy about his plan, a sudden force, akin to being hammered by heavy metal, transmitted to his back.
In an instant, his figure plunged toward the ground. Face first, as traces of blood could be seen flowing from the corner of his mouth.
Pain, originating from his internal organs, momentarily flooded his senses as he gazed at the small deer behind him in anger and humiliation.
Bleat~
Seemingly sensing Araw's anger, the deer revealed deep disdain in its eyes, as if it were looking at an insignificant ant, making Araw grit his teeth in pure anger as he immediately attempted to kick the deer... but only to end up in vain.
Damn!
"Although I knew that there is a huge difference between beasts and humans in the same realm—the strength that this beast showcases shouldn't be this terrifying!"
Thinking that the deer still hasn't reached its maturity, Araw couldn't help but shiver slightly... Thankful that he had noticed their strangest earlier on, or else he might regret it later.
Compared to humans, who were inherently weak in strength, the beast doesn't have noticeable weaknesses; only their inferior intelligence, which was far from normal mortal, was present in them—causing the difference between the two to become inconceivable.
Although he had heard in his past life that it needed at least 5 cultivators in the same realm to subdue or kill a beast with a similar stage...
Araw, upon cultivating a peak body strengthening scripture, thought that he could at least fight a beast in the same realm without falling into a disadvantage...
However, who would have thought that his confidence would instantly pop up in front of this beast?
Not to mention a peak early stage of transcended grade beast; he couldn't even catch the corner of this cub!
Moreover, its strength was also high! Almost comparable to the 2nd stage of the body tempering realm!
"No, it's not that I'm weak, but this beast already awakened a skill! This beast potential seems mutated also."
Remembering the strange light within the eyes of the deer earlier, Araw seems to understand something... Making his eyes glint dangerously as he immediately faced the deer in the short distance.
Without hesitation, Araw spent 1 teaching point to buy a sharp knife capable of threatening transcended grade beasts from the system, causing the expression of the deer in the short distance to drop immediately—as it sensed coldness from the knife that suddenly appeared on the humanoid creature in front of it.
Even though its intelligence wasn't that high, it knew that the strange item that appeared on Araw's hands was capable of threatening its life. Hence, for the first time, fear appeared in its eyes.
