Chapter 268: Trouble (1/2)
Sam wanted to relax. But his expectations are short lived. Because another accident happened at this moment and this time it is people from the thunder-god temple.
They accidentally provoked a Level-5 beast and that place is too near to the pillar.
The group didn't move towards the tower since it is too far away and instead ran towards the stone pillar.
All the candidates are alarmed at the roars of the beast and the screams of the people, who are running towards them.
Sam and the others who are relaxing at this moment, woke up from their daze immediately and were on high-alert.
From the roars, Sam was sure that this beast is at least a middle-stage Level 5 beast. its aura was too terrifying to even from this distance.
Sam activated the thermal vision and looked towards the direction where the roars are coming from and from what he saw he was completely stunned.
Just from the silhouette he saw from the thermal vision, he had a few beasts in his mind and no matter which beast this one is, it is not exactly good news.
”We have to escape now.” He nudged Watt and both of them immediately caught Philip and Jack before fleeing into the forest. The remaining members are also alerted by Sam' actions and prepared to flee.
Sam didn't even bother warning them.
After entering the woods, he stopped for a second and threw everyone into the divine dimension. Watt is not as fast as him. So, it is better this way.
Sam increased his speed to the limit and now he is as fast a Peak level – 5 beasts, but he is still not that confident that he can escape.
Because, if the beast is really what he thinks it is, then there is almost no escape. Because, it is kind of a beast that can be considered as a predator in the Level – 5 beasts. It can fight against the beasts with strength higher than itself.
The main thing is the speed of this beasts is faster than any level-5 beast. its main ability lies in its speed.
So, Sam is not exactly confident.
Then how are the three people able to run away from it? Actually, that is the main factor that made Sam flee immediately. Because he knows of a beast that likes to toy with its prey. It likes to make its prey think that there is the hope of living, but then it would toy the prey to death leaving unsurmountable despair.
At this moment, Sam only wished on things that the beast didn't take the same route as him.
If not, he can only do one thing and that is to enter the divine dimension and stay there until the beast escaped.
He didn't dare take out any beasts from the divine dimension, because they are not strong enough and he didn't bring the vulture, because that bird has yet to know the existence of the divine dimension.
Level-6 beasts have a certain level of intelligence, he doesn't dare to send a beast which he didn't have enough familiarity and trust into the divine dimension.
There is also another beast, the termite queen, but it is not suitable for a head-on confrontation, rather it is suitable for an ambush.
Sam felt glad that he remembered the map completely. He escaped towards the tower and only heaved a sigh after he entered it.
Even though the beast was not after him, he didn't dare to stop. He just came back to the tower on instinct.
After reaching the tower, he let the remaining three out.
They also looked at the familiar tower walls and sighed.
They didn't see the beast, but from Sam's reaction, they could feel that this beast is truly dangerous.
”Just cultivate and breakthrough. We need to increase our strength as much as we can. We cannot simply run away. For now, let us not bother about Hawk. I highly doubt that the inheritance will throw him in such a dangerous place after the tests are over.
Focus on cultivation. I will see what we have to do from tomorrow.”
After that, Sam took out the corpse of the boar. He also needs to speed up the process of cultivation and due to the beast cultivation, rather than absorbing the spiritual energy of beasts, he is better off getting spiritual energy through the consumption of food.
Since he has a Level-4 peak level of food, it will be great nutrition.
When the remaining three people saw the corpse, Sam said.
”It is poisoned. Don't even think about eating it.”
Sam cut open the belly of the boar and while cleaning it, he found something interesting. Inside the body of the boar, he found a spatial ring.
It was fixed into the spine of the boar is a small corner.
