Chapter 448: Daemon Forest Exploration (3)

/*unedited*/

A large clearing was created to an area of the forest, but as a whole, it was not enough to even be noticed within the sea of green trees and rolling mountains. In the middle of this devastation is a young man wearing metallic camouflage armor and headgear with only his mouth is exposed.

His figure stood in the middle with a domineering stance while holding a black katana sword and a handgun.

Shin Jiao had a smile on his face and felt his body surging with power. While fighting the four beasts he felt his physique suddenly absorbs the energy deep in his dantian as it grew in strength and cultivation. With every hit, he receives from the four beasts it made his whole body greedily absorb the huge amount of energy in the spheres within his dantian.

As his physique got stronger the fight became intense until he was able to consolidate his cultivation level and physique into reaching the true nascent realm cultivation level.

Four mountain like carcasses lies all over him as the cloud of dust settles down.

Although his armor seems intact, Shin Jiao knew that they are already useless. They have served their purpose in this fight. With his physique not on par with his cultivation level, he decided to fight the four 5th level beasts using external armor in his body.

And his conjecture was correct. With the nascent realm strength slowly coursing through, he can now feel that his senses have reached his old apex level.

He once had a nascent realm physique and had lost it. But now that he got it back along with a complete cultivation power. Shin Jiao slowly absorbs the energy in the air as he replenishes the energy in his body which is on 1/8th remained.

While doing so, he scanned his surroundings and suddenly frowned. As he was too concentrated in the fight, he didn't notice the presence of 3 people. But now that the battle is finished, he immediately discovered them after scanning his surroundings.

The three people look vigilant and hesitation can be seen on their faces.

However, he noticed that they are looking at the four mountain-like carcasses with greed. Shin Jiao is not new to that kind of expression and knew the basic rule inside the forest.

But he just gave a sneer on his half-covered face. If the three made their move, he would teach them a lesson on greed. But then his attention caught the sight of one of the young men in that group.

This is because he can see a single horn protruding in the forehead of the young man.

"A demon? A demon is cooperating with humans and beastmen? Hmm… this is new." He thought as he looks at the three with interest using his absolute sense.

He then waved his hand and absorbed all of the corpses.

When he did that, he can see the human which is a cultivator at the gold core realm showed an angry face. The man seems to be hesitating but then gritted his teeth as he took out his sword and tried to approach Shin Jiao.

The two young men with him tried to stop the man but he turns to look at the two young men with anger in his face.

"Ahh… here comes another greedy bastard…" Shin Jiao muttered with a grin on his face.

He didn't want to start a fight with the human cultivators in this land, but he won't accept anyone trampling on him either.

So as the man approaches he scanned Shin Jiao and saw that he doesn't have a cultivation fluctuation and concluded that Shin Jiao might be a strong knight. And the man grinned at his thought. Although knights are strong in close-quarter combat, their body's healing rate is very slow.

Hence judging from the fight earlier he suspects that Shin Jiao might be wounded internally that's why he is unable to move. So if he wants to get those 5th level beasts carcass now is the right time.

But still, he carefully approaches Shin Jiao's figure and stood at around 20 meters away from him. The man is confident that he can kill Shin Jiao at that distance with his skill.

"You seem to be wounded, young knight… I saw you taking down our prey a while ago. We didn't interfere as we didn't want you to get hurt. But you have to return them to me. We hunted those things for a while now…" the man said with a smile.

He wanted to create some reason for his action so that Shin Jiao would have hesitation in his heart. And in this world, those words can sometimes prove fatal to those who hesitate. And that is what the man is waiting for. He just Shin Jiao to put his guard down or be angered for a second and he can strike at that time to kill him.

If that happens then, he can get Shin Jiao's items.

With a great plan in his mind, the man felt excited and can't wait for Shin Jiao to make a mistake and waited for the chance.

However, he noticed that Shin Jiao didn't even move from his spot and just stood there. Hence the man was baffled.

"Is he dead or something?" he thought.

He then turns his gaze and observes Shin Jiao's breathing and found it weird. Shin Jiao's heart is actually very calm especially the rhythm of the beat. It seems like the sound of a calm river almost silent and peaceful.

This made the man turn vigilant. He knew of the power which the young-looking man holds, but he could not give up on this chance. Hence he suddenly made his move, it was now or never.

As he waves his hand really fast a Qi filled sword flew out of his hand and directed at Shin Jiao's chest. With Shin Jiao's figure not moving the man showed a confident smile on his face of his victory.

However, his expression changes as he suddenly felt something sticking out of his body. The man was thoroughly stunned at this situation and panic can be seen in his eyes as he looks at the bloody sword protruding from his chest.

There was no danger premonition, nor killing intent. He didn't feel anything at all from his opponent. And it was all too late before he can even react. The only time he discovered that he was attacked is when the enemy's sword is already skewering his body.

The man's body then felt weak and fell to the ground dead. His eyes are still open and deep regret can be seen on them.

He was regretful that he was too greedy and didn't assess the situation first. But everything is for naught as he is now dead.

Meanwhile, the two students who saw this happen were thoroughly frightened. The two didn't know what happened as they saw that their teacher's attack pierced through the man's body. But soon they discovered that it was actually an afterimage and the man is already behind their teacher.

"That… That man is too powerful, we… we have to get out of here or else we will die." The feline beastman said with trembling voice.

The young demon didn't react as he felt his feet unable to move. The invisible pressure of what they saw was an itch in their minds. The sheer speed of the battle alone was enough to scare them.

But then his eyes were drawn to a particular area and an idea dawned unto him.

He was afraid, He, Gindal Io, a member of the young generation of the noble demon clan under the demon queen is actually scared.

"Come with me, I… I think that man is not that… that heartless." He said as he is already thinking of a plan.

The two arrive in an area where five elves are lying unconscious on the ground.

When the young beastman saw this, he felt scared.

"No, we can't be here… that guy saved these people, if we do something bad, we can't escape this place alive…" he said in a panic.

"Shut your trap! What bad things… can't you see that this young woman is dying…" Gendal Io said as he turns his gaze at the elf with a mangled body.

He didn't know why, but he was surprised and really amazed at the woman's tenacity to live. Hence he decided to help, he needs to win the man's trust and this is their only choice. He already knew that the powerful man is very powerful and has discovered them. Hence his choice is to help those people he helped.

Stretching his arms he suddenly invoked a spell and a green light appears. When the young beastman saw this his face was full of astonishment. This is because everyone knew that demons can't use healing magic.

Their affinity was dark Qi and hence their bodies have a natural fast healing rate, even faster than the beastmen, hence the young beastman was surprised to see this.

Not long later, beads of sweat appear on Gindal Io's forehead as he can feel the mana in his body reducing rapidly. Then he fell on one knew as he continues to hold the spell.

Meanwhile, the woman's mangled body slowly returns to normal and even her face which was a bit deformed return to its natural beauty.

Then Gendal Io felt his body becoming weak as he slowly lost consciousness.

Deep in his heart, he can feel warmth and happiness. He didn't know why he decided to help the girl as his only plan is to heal those elves to save his own life.. But when he saw the sorry state of the woman, his heart remembers a small figure… his little sister that was killed during the war.
