Chapter 1450 - Mineral (3) (1/2)

Dyon didn't reply to Little Yang's tirade of words. His muscles were flexed, his eyes were narrowed and his nerves were on absolute edge. Every fiber of his being were focused on only two things: the woman in his arms and the sprite before him.

However, nothing could have prepared him for what happened next. No matter how fast his reflexes were.

The walls of the mountain of silver distorted, shooting forward with their sharp edges pointed toward Dyon.

Dyon's eyes didn't even have time to contract before his shoulders and t.h.i.g.hs were pierced. It was obvious by the sprite's actions that it wanted to stall Dyon's movement, but was unwilling to harm him. Luckily, this meant that it avoided Dyon's c.h.e.s.t and thus, other than a small scr.a.p.e to Madeleine back, she remained unharmed.

She wanted to call out, but she refrained herself from doing so. She was aware that Dyon was using his presence to hide her from view of the sprite. These sorts of creatures relied on their own divine sense to view things, but just like eyesight, divine senses could be fooled. No matter what cultivation level this sprite had reached, its divine sense would never be stronger than Dyon's!

Of course, the question was obvious why hadn't Dyon hidden himself and the answer lay in the fact his feet were connected to the mountain of silver. Before he could use his wings, the sprite had already locked the movement of his legs. It didn't need divine sense to realize that Dyon was standing right before it because connected to the mountain itself.

Dyon didn't so much as flinch when he felt his bone being pierced through, nor did his focus waver. His eyes remained trained on the oddly shaped rainbow rock floating before them. It was several hundred meters across, hovering with a menacing aura.

Crimson blood tinged with rose-bronze flowed out from Dyon body, causing him to sneer. 'This bastard wants to bleed me out?'

The sprite was being overly cautious precisely because it was wary of Dyon's soul strength. It had to make sure that when it entered Dyon's mind's eye that he was in as weakened as state as possible. That said, it was just cautious, not hesitant.

With its senses, it had pinned down that Dyon's soul strength was of the peak celestial realm. Although this was rare for humans in its mind, in comparison to it, it wasn't enough. The sprite laughed to itself, already sizing up Dyon's body as though it was its own already.

Handsome, sturdy, so many good constitutions. Powerful, great potential. It couldn't have been happier. It would have to use some of its own strength to widen Dyon's mind's eye since this boy's soul strength was so weak, but other than that, everything was perfect.
