Chapter 965: Creatures (1/2)

Sam stayed over four hours inside the forest. It is such a large patch and when he made it out, it is already deep into the afternoon. In a few hours the sun would set and he can looked at the mountain directly from this point.

He kept track of Gran who is actually quite skilled in sneaking around the forest. Even though, Sam left all these extra undead creatures, he was unable to feel that he is going to win. It is as if he was given the lead intentionally and he couldn't shake that feeling off at all.

After a few dozen meters of the forest, Sam saw the next obstacle. It is a large valley. It is so wide and deep that he is sure that he wouldn't be able to leap to the other side in a single jump and even his tricks might not be able to cross it.

In fact, even the spatial blink wouldn't be possible. It is almost two to three hundred meters wide. It is as if planet was seperated into two.

As for diving into the valley and crossing it before climbing from otherside. Sam is even more reluctant as the valley is too deep that he couldn't see any trace of the end.

And he could hear the loud roars of the beasts.

But when he turned around, he could see Gran nearing him.

After some thought, he took a deep breath and jumped into the valley.

After a few seconds of Sam dropping down, Gran arrived and she had a smirk on her face.

She stood at the edge of the valley and started swallowing various pills that are mostly used for energy recovery. But instead of recovering her energy, he is channeling all the energy that came out of the pill and compressed it.

Her plan is to use all this excess energy and use a spatial blink to cross the valley in a single step.

There is a reason why Sam jumped into the valley. Even if he can use the spatial blink by borrowing extra energy, his body wouldn't be able to sustain it. But she doesn't have any problem with that. Because even though she suppressed her cultivation, her body has already experienced changed and evolved according to her original cultivation level.

She could easily bear all the energy.

There is no true fairness after all. As she channeled the energy and took more and more pills, suddenly she sensed something from the valley.

She looked down and noticed a large tree branch extending to the other side of the valley. The tree branch is so wide and large that it is extending for three hundred meters directly. This is something unbelievable for Gran.

The more shocking thing is Sam sitting on the branch.

When Sam leapt into the valley, he came across this large branch that is growing on the side of the cliff. He caught a hold of it and tested it for its strength for a few minutes and decided to take his approach. He is also taking a lot of potions and pills, but instead of compressing it, he directly channeled the energy to the tree branch and let it grow wildly.

Gran really wanted to punch Sam in the face. This is already god knows what element he showed to her this day.

She thought she was being unfair to him with this spatial blink technique. But she didn't feel like that anymore.

She stopped channeling the energy and used the spatial blink and landed on middle of that large branch as she ran on it following Sam.

Sam tried to create some obstacles to her on the branch, but she dodged them easily.

After some time he gave up and focused on leaving the place.

And he did exactly that. He managed to cross the valley and he threw a large container of bio fuel and set the tree branch on fire as he ran away swiftly.

This tree branch trick gave him time to recover his energy and heal some wounds and he managed to run with a new found vigor.

Gran who is now running on a burning branch tried to cross it and when she noticed that it is burning too vigorously, she couldn't  help but put her own energy conservation aside and use blink once again as she crossed the valley.

As she followed Sam, he shifted from shadow elemental fusion to water elemental fusion as he jumped into a calm stream and swiftly appeard on the otherside.

For some reason, there are no golems or meteor strikes in the area and there is a plain field that is leading directly to the foot of the mountain.

Sam turned around to look for Gran who is catching upto him swiftly.
