Chapter 665: Immortal Land

(Unedited)

…

As the darkness crawled into the horizon to cover the land, a dangerous premonition could be felt everywhere. This situation is not present before in the immortal land. Those who live in this place would always live in harmony and peace. Everyone is focused on strengthening themselves by absorbing the energy of the universe and becoming strong.

In fact, according to what Frances Jill told Shin Jiao, millions of years ago, the immortal land does have clans and discrimination. Everything was like a perfect haven for those who have attained ascension. However, after the last Great War, everything changes.

Many deities have fallen in that Great War and most of them did not have the ability to fight properly. Relying only on their ability to control the universe's energy those deities fell easily in the unending assault of the demons and the shadow beings.

Although the deities won and drove the darkness away, they knew that the danger is not yet over. The balance is restored and the light would soon once again fight against the darkness.

Hence the human deities decided to change the immortal land. The immortal land is a training ground for those who would soon reach or in the deity realm. It is the preparation for every deity to assume a role in creating their own worlds.

And so the changes happened and danger began lurking inside the immortal land. And that danger would come out every time the darkness seeps in.

Right now, in front of Shin Jiao is the very creature within the darkness.

It is a 3-meter tall shadow wolf.

As Shin Jiao watches the wolf held down Frances Jill, he could not prevent himself from feeling chills running down his spine.

According to Frances, the people in this place could die, but temporarily. However, they would surely experience greater pain than normal deaths. Hence, most people in this place didn't dare go out at night although they are all immortals in this land.

The pain itself could already cause one to develop trauma and heart demons, plus they would feel their own helplessness while being devoured by these night creatures. Hence they didn't dare to go out at night.

Except for the brave few, many would prefer to hide inside their huts and wait the long night in hiding.

Growl!!!

The shadow wolf growled making the young man under its large paws quiver in fear. Frances has already experienced dying before when he was new in this world. However, ever since he experienced it, he dare not want to die again anytime soon.

But the situation right now is something that he did not expect.

Who would have thought that when he was about to close the gate of his small courtyard and the darkness has not settled yet, a large shadow creature would pounce at him? He tried to run but it was already too late. The large paw of the creature is already upon him and he could not help but be stepped on like a bug.

As someone new in the land, Shin Jiao did not actually feel fear. He has encountered these kinds of creatures before and so he has confidence that he could take care of it. However, he soon realized that his thinking was a bit amiss.

This is because when he tried to activate his power unconsciously, he could not feel anything.

"Damn… I almost forgot…" Shin Jiao thought as he suddenly dodges to the side he saw the shadow wolf suddenly swipe its paws and sent some rocks on the side towards his location.

Shin Jiao didn't know what to do as he leaned against the wall and began feeling his environment.

He consciously used his psychokinesis as a sense and immediately noticed what the shadow wolf is doing. However, upon doing so, the shadow wolf suddenly feels a strange sensation covering its body. It showed confusion in its glowing eyes as it looks around. It didn't know why, but it felt that something or someone is touching it lightly. It was like the wind, yet controlled.

Suddenly, Shin Jiao's expression turned serious as he suddenly concentrated and with a push sent that shadow wolf flying out of the small courtyard.

Then with a quick movement, he rushes towards Frances who is still lying on the ground.

He picked up the young man and quickly drags him inside the hut.

Feeling his body being carried by someone, Frances slowly lifted his head. He could still feel the pain on his chest and back, but he knew that Shin Jiao might have helped him.

"Turn… turn… on the… lamp… quickly…" he tried to say in a hoarse voice.

Shin Jiao did not hesitate and quickly put Frances on the bed and turn on the lamp.

However, he already saw the shadow wolf pouncing towards him.

Shin Jiao gritted his teeth and turn on the light while ignoring that large paw swiping towards his body.

As the light turns on, Shin Jiao's body was also sent flying towards the windows.

Crash!!!

Shin Jiao felt his whole body aching as his back crashes through the window and he landed in a sorry state on the ground.

Yelp!!!

The shadow wolf suddenly cried in pain as it jumps out of the hut and back away.

This reaction was caught by Shin Jiao in the corner of his eyes. Although he felt his body a bit pained, he also saw something interesting and might be of use in fighting this creature.

However, before he could think more, he saw the large shadow wolf turning its gaze towards his sorry figure on the ground.

Growl!!!

Barring its sharp fangs, it suddenly pounces towards Shin Jiao.

Although he was in a sorry state, Shin Jiao didn't bother with the pain. He is already used to these kinds of pain while tempering his body. What he needed to do now is to kill this shadow wolf. He has a feeling that this thing could give him something… nice.

With a knitted brow, Shin Jiao suddenly activated his psychokinesis. The shadow wolf was suddenly caught in mid-air before it could even approach Shin Jiao.

However, it was still too heavy and Shin Jiao did not have any choice but to push it aside.

Bang!

The wolf hit the walls.

Shin Jiao subconsciously grabs a stone and tried to transform it into a sharp spear. However, he soon discovers that it was to no avail. He could not even break that stone into pieces.

"Damn it… Ugh…" Shin Jiao forces himself to stand up.

He didn't know why his body felt weak. However, he remembers Frances talking about eating and absorbing the universe's energy.

Then on the side of his eyes, he found a couple of root crops that Frances put near the window where he crashed.

Shin Jiao did not hesitate and immediately grab that piece of root crop and immediately ate it. Upon swallowing that hard and dry root crop, Shin Jiao could immediately feel the energy coursing through his body and seem to recover his energy a little.

With the recovery of strength, he slowly pushes himself up and grabs another one, and took a bite while looking cautiously at the shadow wolf that has already picked itself up and is also glaring at him.

This time the shadow wolf was cautious and did not dare attack. It felt a very dangerous vibe towards this human. It knew that this human is not like the rest of the humans it has eaten and fought before.

After eating two more, Shin Jiao could feel that around 40% of his strength has recovered.

"This is awesome… I didn't know that my body could digest food this fast… Haha…" Shin Jiao chuckled deep in his mind but didn't show it.

He slowly approaches the side of the wall where a bunch of poles used for hanging clothes are leaning.

Seeing the human grabbing a weapon, the shadow wolf didn't dally any longer and immediately pounces forward.

Growl!

With white teeth and claws expose in the air, the shadow wolf directly attacked Shin Jiao's body.

But how could he let the beast do as it pleases? Shin Jiao did not hesitate and suddenly brandished the pole and while dodging the claws of the shadow wolf, he accurately extended the pole towards its right eye.

Puchi!!!

Like something being squashed the pole penetrated the eye and was about to directly hit its brain, but Shin Jiao stopped.

He then let his body be hit by the large long legs of the wolf.

Suddenly, he saw two rays of light flying towards him and the wolf. Shin Jiao did not hesitate and immediately uses his psychokinesis to protect his body.

Swoosh!!!

The light rays which look like flying light blades sliced the shadow wolf into four pieces. Then it fell to the ground covering Shin Jiao's body in thick dark purple blood.

Shin Jiao then saw that at the back of the wolf's heart, a thumb-sized circular object could be seen. He did not hesitate to immediately extend his hand to grab that thing and yank it out.

Then without a second thought, Shin Jiao immediately ran inside the house in a sorry manner.

With the object in hand, Shin Jiao immediately closes the door and locks it while slumping on the ground. A shallow smile appears on his face as he held tightly to that small object.

Then suddenly, Shin Jiao saw the blood covering his body a while ago slowly dissipating. It was as if the blood slowly evaporated in the air.

Shin Jiao was a bit taken aback and when he lifted his gaze towards Frances who is looking at him with a stunned look, Shin Jiao just showed a sheepish smile.

"What happened?" Frances asked with confusion in his eyes.

"Some… someone killed that thing…"

"The shadow wolf? That's… that's great… I guess the protectors are here…"

"Protectors?"

"Ah… I mean the clans… they are the one who usually patrols the night and kills those things." Frances said while painfully dragging himself on the bed.

Shin Jiao just nodded in understanding.

Meanwhile, outside the small courtyard a white unicorn-horse slowly approached the area and on its back is a slender figure with long blonde hair. From the curves of the figure, one can tell that she is a woman wearing a glittering silvery armor.

"Hmm… I could have sworn I saw two of my blades coming towards this place… That's weird…" she muttered as she observes the surroundings. Upon seeing the broken boxes and woods, she just frowns.. But soon left the area.
