Chapter 82 Show Down: Chiron Vs Green Cored Beast 2...
This one was a green cored beast.
Only the female beast that was a yellow cored beast was strong enough to cause devastating damage to the young cultivators.
Also, it was common knowledge that a Green cored beast was stronger than a regular Stone ranked cultivator.
All the time Chiron had to fight the other cultivators in his class, he had used his wits against them. The reason it had worked so far was because of their pride and the fact that they underestimated him.
But it was different with this beast. Cored beasts were very direct with their motives and Chiron could tell that the one in front of him wanted nothing more than to tear him into pieces.
"Ra-ra, I want you to run." Chiron instructed. However, Nora did not move.
No! she couldn't move. She did not want to. What if Chiron died here and now? If that happened, she would never forgive herself for life.
She stood up, her sword in hand. She wanted to stay and fight with him.
"Big brother, I'll stay and..."
*SLAP!*
Chiron turned and gave her a resounding slap to the face, "I said RUN!"
Nora fell to the ground. Even though she was a cultivator, she was not expecting the harsh slap that Chiron gave her.
Since she had known him, this was the very first time he was lifting his hands on her. Her hands massaged her sore face as she looked at him with tears in her eyes.
"Ra-ra!!!" Chiron looked her dead in the eyes, "I need you to run, find and lead an elder here. The beast wants me. don't worry about me, I'm not dying here. Now go!"
He pushed her. She staggered a bit. Even after hearing all the things he had said, she did not want to go, but seeing his eyes, she had no choice. She loved, and respected him too much.
She turned and ran into the forest.
Tears from her eyes watered her cheeks as she did. But Nora was smart enough to know that Chiron was doing it because of her. And so she activated her spirit energy, putting much of it in her legs as she ran.
She knew what she needed to do. She needed to find an elder.
The moment she turned and left, the Green Skinned shadow beast looked in her direction, and it made an attempt to go after her, but Chiron removed the Male egg once more and the beast's attention was once more pulled to him.
"Ahhh! you want it don't you? I told you before, come and get it, or do you want me to make an omelet with it? " Chiron threw the egg in the air a couple of times which made the beast stomp on the ground a couple of times in its agitation.
And then he waved his hand and the egg disappeared again.
The beast could not take the taunting anymore. It kicked against the ground and ran for Chiron.
Chiron also Screamed loudly as he ran for the beast, pulling Devil's touch along.
It looked like both of them were going to crash into one another. Or rather, it looked like the beast was going to envelop Chiron.
But the moment they got close enough, Devil's Touch disappeared and several paper seals suddenly appeared in front of Chiron.
This were the Paper seals that had Chiron's spirit energy. He activated them and a blinding light of Spirit energy shone on the beast's face.
Fight fair and square!? who was the dumb person that said that?
Chiron never had plans to face this beast head on. This beast was strong enough to make a stone ranked cultivator regret being born. Chiron was not so foolish as to think that he could face the beast in a one on one fight.
But that did not mean that he did not have a few tricks off his sleeves that could be very useful.
The cored beast was accustomed to the shadows. On top of that, it was essentially a cat. It was a known fact that the eyes of a Cat was extra sensitive to light.
This cat's eyes was a hundred times better than the eyes of a normal Cat. It meant that even though it was night, this cored beast could see him as clear as day. But what if day light was to suddenly appear? Was that not the same thing as looking at the Sun?
Chiron threw out several Paper seals to achieve a blinding effect while he jumped out of the way of the beast.
Even though all this happened fast, and he had moved as quick as he could, one of the beast's claws had still taken a part of Chiron's flesh as he jumped to the side.
A deep cut spitting out blood poured out from his abdomen. Chiron rolled over to the side. His body hurt from the cut, but he could not be bothered by that at the moment.
Immediately he went of the way of the beast, he waved his hands and two beast eggs appeared. He immediately threw them at the beast.
One of them landed squarely on the beast face and broke, spilling its egg content on the beast's face. While the second on landed on the beasts body.
The goal was simple, I can't fight you, but that does not mean that I can't hide from you.
The egg content fell on the beast's face,and a good part of it went straight for its nose.
Chiron removed one more and threw it again. It also landed on the beast's face.
He had essentially achieved two things. Firstly, he had temporarily blinded the beast, secondly, he had rendered the beast's nose unusable.
The beast growled loudly as it tried to figure out its bearing.
First was the bright light from the spirit seal that nearly blinded the beast and next came the egg content that obstructed both eyes and nose.
However, Chiron was not done. he was not foolish enough to think that this was enough.
He immediately waved his hand and this time around, he broke the egg that appeared on his own head.
The beast had lost its bearing and was still trying to figure things out.
Chiron used this opportunity and bathed in the content of three eggs.
"If you can't see me, and you can't smell me," he picked up a stone and then he threw it on a tree far away, "how can you kill me?"
The beast had been effectively robbed of it's eyes and it's ears, but its ears were still available.
The moment it heard the stone hit the tree, it immediately dived in that direction.
This made Chiron smile. He was covered in the content of the eggs which was the same smell as the York on the best's face. There was no way in hell that Chiron Could be found.
The beast hit the tree in confusion. It tried to smell and search around for Chiron, but still could not find him.
Just then, Chiron felt the sharp pain from his abdomen. He looked at it and frowned.
Immediately, he opened up one of the Potions elder Ellen had gave him and downed the content. However, to his surprise, the injury was barely showing signs of healing.
"Shit!" he cursed lowly.
The potions Elder Ellen gave him worked by stimulating the healing process in a person's body. However, that process also needed energy for it to be achieved.
All the while, Chiron had been taken potions again and again to heal. Adding to the fact that he lost a lot of blood to feeding Devil's touch earlier in the day, his body was currently very exhausted.
The bleeding from his abdomen continued to flow and some of it touched the ground.
The moment it did, Chiron noticed that the beast stopped and looked in his direction.
"SHIT!!!" He cursed again as he immediately brought out another egg and poured it on the injury. It stung hard, but he could not be bothered by the pain
The beast had caught the smell of his blood and it immediately ran for him.
Chiron turned and also ran into the forest.
The beast chased him relentlessly.
Chiron looked into his storage in the system. He only had two normal eggs remaining.
He brought out one of them and poured it over his body.
And then he jumped high, landed and rushed to hide behind a tree.
The beast also arrived. Its vision was still affected and its sense of smell was still bad from the egg York. Slowly, it patrolled the place in search for Chiron.
At one time, it even came close enough to the place Chiron was hiding. It sniffed hard but it could not find him.
It moved away to search another place. Chiron sighed a breathe of relieve.
However, Fate was still after him. Chiron suddenly heard the heavy sound of thunder in the sky. He looked up, and to his surprise, the sky that had been clear only moments ago with its two full moons was now filled with clouds.
"Oh! FUCK!!!" he frowned.
Drop by drop, the rain fell, as it did, it washed the egg York from his body and also from the face of the Green Skinned leopard...
