Chapter 118: Blood Ghoul (1/2)

Sam went to the edge of the formation. Due to long term depletion of energy from the hydra, the formation has eroded.

But even after it was eroded, it is not easy for him to break.

His level of attainment in the formations and the inscriptions is not high enough for him to break the formation open

Even a stone wall which is tens of meters thick was tested with time and became as weak as a mud wall, digging a mud wall of that size isn't a normal person could do and Sam is in same situation.

But he didn't give up.

Sam thought about the energy flow in the formation and checked each and every spike. There are more than twenty chains which are acting as energy channels. There are a total of forty spikes out of which twenty of them are buried inside the earth acting as nodes.

He started observing all the nodes individually to where the formation is damaged causing these energy loop holes.

Even if he wants to deal with this, he has to take care so that there wouldn't be any damage on him due to energy back lash.

After a long time, he found the spot where the energy is depleted and the node with which he can work to destroy the formation without much backlash.

He placed his hands on the ground near the spike, and slowly started eroding the earth around it. If the node is removed the formation will be destroyed, then he can surely make use of it to store away, but he needs to be prepared to face the rush of the water as well as the energy back lash.

Sam immediately wore his helmet back and kept the hoverboard back inside the storage.

Sam worked more than ten days, to completely take away the earth and rocks. The spike is buried vertically. It is more than ten feet long and more than eight feet is buried.

His mental energy was used up a lot after making some rocks into powder and the fact that spiritual energy is concentrated on the rocks near it is not helping. He will face minor back lash every time he unearthed some part of spike and he needs to recover.

In this way, he is dividing the backlash into minor parts and taking it on, if he were to pull it all at once, with the depleted formation, even though it might be possible, he will definitely have to face major backlash and under this sea, he might even die.

He has to take care that the energy spike wouldn't be destroyed or the runes will be damaged, that is why he worked around slowly and now he is at the final step.

Sam finally placed his hand on the last piece of the rock and another hand on the spike, and after destroying the rock, the spike was finally free, but he could visibly see the formation being destroyed slowly.

The huge force of water came inside, but Sam was also fast, he immediately started storing the chain inside his divine dimension and while the water is flooding in just before drowned the skeleton, Sam reached the skeleton and stored it in.

If he it wasn't for the fact that the formation was damaged a lot and the energy source which is hydra itself is completely depleted, he would have never had a chance to make it with his current level.

He also has to thank all the people who left this place alone. Maybe a person beyond Grand level cultivation might have been able to make it if he is water type mage and has elemental fusion.

If he could take some precautions against the poison, maybe they might have a chance to encounter the formation even if they weren't able to identify it immediately.

In this way, other powerhouse wouldn't leave it alone.

Sam was sure that if there are any resource used for cultivation had appeared instead of mutated water creatures, they would have definitely ventured in even with the risk of poison.

But since there was nothing else and all the people who entered the zone ended up dead, they left it alone.

Sam really did feel grateful for them for leaving

He let the water drown him first instead of struggling and went along with the flow, but he wasn't throw far away and still stayed in the vast rocky terrain.

After stabilizing for a bit, he went upwards with full thrust

He is faster when coming up than when he went down.

But he didn't come up to the surface directly, because the indigo patch was destroyed due to Sam taking away the formation. This indigo water was diluted and the whole sea region became indigo but the colour was a lot lighter and the water was close to normal.

In a few days, the water might even turn back to normal again.

But if he goes out now, he might have to face the people who are on the top and witnessed the scene.

He stayed underwater and travelled near the coast line as he went away from the city. After he reached the coast near woods, Sam came out of the water and removed his suit.

After wearing his usual clothes, he didn't take out the Harbinger, but called out Sky and soared higher to get the direction of city. And soon he is on the way back to the Indigo sea city.

This trip was way beyond profitable and it is more or less time to move to next city.

Sam came back to the vicinity of the city and went to the place where Jack and Jasmine camped.

When he was there, Jasmine is playing with ape. She sat on ape's shoulder and was eating a fruit.
