'I knew he would ask that' (Rex)
"I don't have any of your so called Law Instrument" Rex said
'Although its the truth but it's not like he's gonna believe that.. what should i do..hmm' Rex thought
"I See, So How Did You Comprehended it" The Beast asked
'Huh? did he believed it.. he is not gonna threaten me to do soul search or something.. he is weird' (Rex)
"I just got an enlightenment" Rex said
"Liar! Don't Say It If You Don't Want To Say It.. But Do You Think I Can't Get Something Out Of You If You Don't Speak " The Beast was instantly furious
'Just what is wrong with his head he believed me earlier but not now … the only difference between earlier and now was that I spoke he truth first and lied this time
Except that i always spoke without any unusual change in my body language or heart beat so even if he is an expert he can't easily found it out…. wait he also did it before does he have a way to tell that I am lying or not' Rex thought
[You want to say he has an ability or something like a lie detector which allows him to tell if you are lying or not]
'That's also a possibility you remember Little Ru's trait Soul Sense allows her to slightly sense the malicious intent other's have towards her.. so why can't there be an ability that allows others to find out if someone is lying to them..
Now that I know he might have an ability like that I cannot just make up a lie anymore.. I need to think of something to escape alive… what clue I am missed here.. think Rex think there is always a way out…..looks like i need to use it' Rex thought
When the beast saw Rex was thinking he didn't stopped him
The more he panic the higher will be the chances of him making a mistake…. was what the beast thought
'Fast Clock' (Rex)
With the rise in cultivation base the time limit for which Rex could use Fast Clock has increased to 30 seconds and his Cool down time decreased to 5 minutes
'The black fog covering his body.. it looks like he is hiding his body but why would he do that when he can kill me any time so why.. the whole area is covered in the Qi he is releasing from his body why is he wasting so much Qi in the first place…Why is his body appear to be stronger compared to his cultivation base…' (Rex)
When Rex activated Fast Clock many question rose in his mind and the more he thought about that the more clearer the picture became for Rex it was like he now had all the pieces and what's left was arranging all the pieces to complete the puzzle
After the time limit was over Rex opened his eyes, he had a slight headache but he was still smiling because he had now solved the whole puzzle
"Does Smiling Gives You Courage To Face Death" The Beast looked at Rex
Rex didn't answer his question but asked his own
"I wonder who you are running from.. is it the one who poisoned you?" Rex asked with a smile
The second the words came out of his mouth Rex could feel the killing intent hidden deep in the Beast's eyes
Suddenly Rex noticed something he looked above his head which was ground, many black lines and rune like symbols had appeared on the ground and made a very complex array in seconds
The array was something Rex had never seen even after having all the Memory Inheritance of Alfred
When the array activated many black colored sharp pointed rods came out of it and made a birdcage like cage which imprisoned Rex
It didn't stopped there, Rex saw that many sharp pointed thorns started to grow from the rods around him.. they only stopped after they were just few millimetres away from piercing his body
'He has achieved One Thought Becomes Array Stage.. and this unknown array definitely contains power of law in it or he won't even use it against me.. but an array with law is something even Alfred did not knew about.. all these things only means what I thought was correct' (Rex)
"Your Next Words Will Decide Your Life And Death, If You Want To Live Tell Me Who Sent You" The Beast asked, Rex could feel the anger in his voice but he was still calm
"Cool down you will know nothing if you kill me, So lets start with answering your question.. no one sent me as for how I figured that out it was easy after I thought about it clearly
You are not making this black fog on purpose nor are you releasing it on your own free will and I could tell from your Qi quality and strong body that your real cultivation is higher than what it is at present so i predicted that you are either injured or poisoned
But after seeing that your Qi seems to be more affected compared to your body the injured possibility was ruled out which meant you were poisoned and this poison is not directly killing you but it is affecting your Qi and with time it also made you lose your real cultivation base..
Then comes another question why are you here in this particular forest you could have chose a better place you could have gone to Myriad Beast Continent the people there won't even attack you for you being a spirit beast because you have high intelligence but you still came here and further more you did not let go of those who had come for you and seen your appearance…
It only means that you didn't wanted others to know that you are here so you didn't let the rumors about your appearance spread as for choosing this place you chose this place because this place will probably be the last choice for the people chasing you because they are searching for a big beast so they won't go to a continent where there is a war between humans and other races….. am i correct?" Rex asked with a smile it was like he didn't even mind the spikes that were just few millimetres away from this body
The Beast looked at Rex with slightly wide eyes
'Why does he remind me of a certain someone I really don't like' The Beast thought as he looked at the calm expression of Rex
"I Wonder If I Should Call You Smart Or Foolish, Do You Think I Will Let You GO After You Know That Much?" The Beast looked at him
'He is saying it like he would have let me go before' (Rex)
"You certainly won't let me go like that but what if I say that I can make you a cure for that poison" Rex said calmly
The beast was about to laugh after hearing Rex's words but suddenly he stopped for some reason and looked at Rex again
"Your Overconfidence Is Useless Here Even If Your Are a Highly Skilled Poison Master Or Have An Inheritance Of Someone Like That Its Still Useless, The Poison That Got Me Was Something Which In Itself Has No Cure" The Beast said seriously
"There is no poison in the world that has no cure.. its just about knowing it or not, I am not a poison master but i am 90% sure about finding its cure as long as I have enough knowledge.. even if you don't trust me at least give me a chance its better than trying to fight the poison here alone and waiting for your death" Rex said with a serious expression
The Beast looked into Rex's eyes for a long time before he waved his paw and the array around Rex disappeared
The shadow also released Rex and he fell to the ground
"You Have Only One Chance" The Beast said
Rex nodded and walked closer to him
"Wait Remove Your Storage Ring First" The Beast said when Rex walked closer to him
Rex removed the ring on his finger and put it in his pocket
After Rex was close enough to the beast he touched one of his front leg using his left hand so that he can analyze it but the second he touched his fur covered in black fog… the fog around Rex's hand became restless
And a layer of black ice started to appeared on his fingers, Rex quickly retracted his hand but the ice was still on his finger furthermore it started to spread all over his hand at a rapid speed
'I can't feel my hand any more…. if it comes to this' (Rex)
'Remould' (Rex)
Rex's right hand turned into a sharp blade then he slashed it on his left hand
…Slllaaasshhhh…
The hand covered in black ice fell down, Rex tightly grasped his left hand due to pain but soon Rose's restoration kicked in
Rex saw his whole left hand stared to grow again at a rapid speed
As for the hand that was cut, it turned into light particles and disappeared but the black ice still had its imprint inside it like a fossil
'This black Ice was using my own Qi to grow and imprison me… what a terrifying element this beast had.. how does he even got this element… wait its not the time to think about that' Rex thought
