211 UrilRahne (1/2)
Ryuu sighed as the warm soup entered his mouth, it was so delicious his Second Mistress makes the best food, he has yet to find another who is a better cook than her, it was such a shame he was only limited to six bowls, so unfair the Second Mistress's cooking was to die for.
As Ryuu ate the soup Nuwa looked at her with kind smile as she spoke, ”Ryuu there is something we wish to know.”
Ryuu nodded with a mouthful of soup.
Nuwa: ”Can you tell us about your fight against those demonic cultivators.”
Ryuu nodded as he spoke, ”My team was chased by 5 demonic cultivators, one of Void Immortal realm, one low Immortal and two mid Immortal levels but the last one was half-a-step into being Golden Immortal. The Void Immortal one was the easiest as he was the weakest one in the group as such he was looked down by his comrades making him the easiest to deal with I just had to make him angry and he simply thought I was a cultivator of Primal Daoist realm as such he charged in blindly, the other 3 were not much of a problem but the last one a demonic cultivator by the name of Urilrahne was the main problem.”
Ryuu took another sip of his soup as he spoke, ”She was able to control Jiangshis, there were at least a hundred under her control. As soon as a I finished dealing with four of her comrades I was hit by a volley of arrows from behind, then when she send a second volley I dodged her only to be hit by a soul based attack.”
”What are you talking about Ryuu?”, came a voice from the near the door, Ryuu turned towards the voice a he smiled, it seemed his teachers and their entire family was here now.
Ryuu: ”Nothing much I was just telling teacher about the fight I had inside the hidden space.”
Antariskh raised her eyebrows as she spoke, ”Really then I too wish to hear about it.”
Ryuu nodded as he began speaking as his mind travelled back to the fight he had a few days ago.
Ryuu was hit by a full force of a soul based attack, causing him to helplessly collapse on the ground as his sword fell out of his grip, the Jiangshis did not waste and time as they fell on him with their weapons ready to skewer him making a mince meat out of him, Ryuu managed to somehow bring out a talisman and activated it.
A loud ~Ding~ was heard as their weapons were blocked by a shield erected by Ryuu, but it did not stop them as they rained relentless attacks trying to kill him, but it was enough for Ryuu to gather his bearings as a couple of Talismans raced out wrapping around the Jiangshis before it detonated loudly leaving only chunks of meat lying everywhere.
Urilrahne frowned as she orders, ”Attack that cur.”
A few more Jianghis stepped forward as they used ranged attacks in the form of arrows, flying swords, talismans what not, causing huge explosions to occur as the ground shook as the dust settled down she was greeted by a broken greenish looking semi transparent shield.
She used her scythe to block a few dozen arrows that rained from behind her, as she smirked while turning her head slightly looking towards as she spoke in a chiding tone, ”tsk, tsk You ha…”
Only for they arrows explode in a amalgamation of Lightning and Fire, Ryuu did not wait to see the effect of the attack as he turned an started dashing towards the exist, nad he was right to do so , as the dust cloud cleared a badly damaged ball of flesh parted as an enraged Urilrahne shouted out, ”I will skin you alive you brat.”
Ryuu who was moving fast suddenly coughed out a copious amount of blood as he crashed on the ground. 'Why am I feeling so tired and dizzy all of a sudden few arrows shouldn't be able to …..' his eyes widened at the implication of such behavior 'Poison'.
He couldn't react as a humongous jaw appeared from the ground trying to swallow him only for it to be stopped by another barrier. 'tch this is becoming annoying.', he simply slipped out of the barrier as he left behind a few highly explosive talismans which detonated shortly after.
He quickly dodged as a scythe strike came to take off his head, he parried it with his sword before he blocked another scythe swipe before his opponent changed the direction of the scythe's movement trying to skewer him, he dodged and parried before he used his flying daggers to attack and block as the Jiangshis attacked him following their mistress.
Ryuu knew he could not fight against the woman as such he decided to thin the herd of Jiangshi, a few quick sword force based attacks enclosed with a good dose of 'Dao of Fire', he had successfully taken a few dozens of Jaingshi.
Unlike any living and breathing person the Jiangshis never had any form of self preservation as long as they could move they were trying to rush towards him, as Ryuu cut more and more Jiangshis down his vision seemed to swim, 'What is happening to me? Why are my wounds not closing? I used so many antidotes pills, so many blood replenishing pill but none of them are working.'
He gritted his teeth as he fended off some attacks as he shouted out towards Urilrahne, ”What did you do to me? What poison did you use?”
Urilrahne just laughed loudly as she spoke in a teasing voice, ”Oh my you caught on to it, you have been slaying so many of my Jiangshis did you believe there is no consequences for your actions, brat my Jiangshis have a special toxins in them most prominent among them is 'Corpse Corrosion Poison.', and from the looks of it, it is working.”
