Chapter 384 - 335 : The Local Snake 1 (1/2)
”Master, you must kill that snake!”
The Earth Spirit, who merged with the newborn Spirit, talked for the first time in a long time. Ever since it secured its life and became much stronger by becoming a Tri-Spirit, it became satisfied and no longer tried to cause trouble to Arthur.
In fact, it already acknowledged him as its master. Hearing it talk, Arthur was startled before saying
'Why?'

”If it can rule such a dangerous place then it must be old. It must have lived for more than twenty thousand years. If I can absorb its core, not only would it strengthen me, it can significantly raise your cultivation.”
Arthur remained silent, pondering about to do. It's quite risky to try and kill the snake, if that's even possible. The lord of this place is surely strong, strong enough to make the leader of the Golden Earth Sect offer him crystals for protection.
However, the rewards are enticing, to say the least. He had been stuck in the God Realm for long enough. He needs to rush to Sovereign Realm before doom comes knocking on his door.
Upon becoming a Sovereign, he has two Divine Beasts to possess along with the ancestors of the Mirage Era Hall and that's excluding the other normal corpses laying in his storage.
His power would spike and the probability of defending against the White Specter Clan will increase.
”It is a good opportunity but don't rush your decision. Get the girl first.”
Claud joined the conversation but didn't much. After uttering such words, he went back to being silent. As for Arthur, he thought things through and decided to follow Claud's advice. After all, his main priority should be Lisa.
Once he brings her into a safe place, he'll go back to kill the local snake, hopefully.
”I should be able suppress it with Gravity Magic and Death Storm. However, it'll be up to you to kill it.”
The Earth Spirit already planned everything out. Using its powerful Gravity Magic, it'll limit the snake's movement and weakened periodically with Death Magic. Since it'll be busy doing two things at once, Arthur will have to rely on his arsenal to finish the enemy.
Vyncent, who watched the silent Arthur with a bit of fear and confusion, chose to be quiet and wait for the other party to talk.
”Where do you think this 'top disciple' you spoke of is.”
Vyncent took but a moment to give an answer:
”It should be in the vicinities of the mountain. As I said earlier, the Earth Energy here is pure and thick, going further away will only limit the effects of the sacrifice.”
Arthur nodded his head and added:
”Alright let's go find him. If things get problematic, you'll bring her to the capital and hide their, understood?”
Before Vyncent could reply or react, decaying grey energy emanated from Arthur's hand and entered the young man's body. It felt as if an invisible hand of death that was grasping his heart, ready to burst it at any given moment.
Feeling the presence of Death inside his body, Vyncent's body momentarily trembled and looked at Arthur with a begging expression
”Understood?”
Vyncent is a person who places his own survival above everything else. Arthur had to make sure that Lisa is safe and the only way to do that is to threaten him so that if he dies, he dies with her.
No matter where he is, with but a thought from Arthur, Vyncent die.
Very soon, the two of them left the majestic city and headed toward the big mountain. Thanks to Vyncent, they bypassed the illusion formation and started searching for any signs of life.
Vyncent said that Arthur would feel strong fluctuation of Energy when they're closer to the place of sacrifice. Relying on his Sixth Sense and map, Arthur searched every nook and cranny.
The base of the mountain was wide and the area was big and dangerous even for Divine Beings. The God Beasts hiding there are extremely powerful and threatening.
If not for Arthur accompanying him, Vyncent wouldn't dare tread into this place. In fact, in more than one occasion, they would meet a Fire God Beast which will frighten poor lil' Vyncent.
To his absolute astonishment, before it could even leap at them, the God Beast would either lifelessly fall on the ground or turn into a bloody mist.
He didn't know how Arthur did it, but it was a swift and silent death. After one hour, more or less, the duo climbed half the mountain, which led to their encounters with the God Beasts to drastically increase.
Obviously, they were no threat to Arthur, who finally managed to sense something unusual.
