Chapter 14 - Basilisk (3)

Immediately Meredith manipulated her Spiritual energies her skin glowed azure blue, seeing the object coming she made a split-second conscious decision of concentrating spiritual emerge in certain area to increase defense.

Spiritual energy concentrated in the place where she calculated the projectiles would hit.

Natural there were other factors which could potentially throw her calculation out the window, but in the time was short prevent her from thinking so far ahead, before she was even done, they hit.

The area was wide as if launched with the intention off cutting her location for dozing to minimal damage.

The rocks hit sending Meredith flying back dozens of meters she was hit heavily, just enough for her to feel it though her defenses.

In an instant Meredith punched out three times in retaliation, three meters diameter flaming fist rapidly approached the beast.

The clave lit up smaller rocks could be seen from when the beast shot them at her just now and the bigger one's when it entered.

'Were moving 'she told Remi.

Activate her movement art to the absolute limits she could dozens of drops of energy were spent.

Reducing the effect of gravity and friction along with reducing her weight, her speed was improved multiple folds.

In what seem liked and instant she arrived beside the beast of the best area was a bit dim but its yellow eyes still focused forward.

Without wanting a moment while in turn pumping wind based spiritual energy, she swung her halberd at the creature eyes cutting its head along was at that was a few meters in length.

A long gash was made a few inches deep was made blood splattered for the injury.

the halberd vibrated in her hands as it hummed in approval as if say it was satisfied the first taste of blood.

The creature instantly lost it vision from it left eye.

Getting her hit in Meredith flashed back again putting some distance between the Basilisk and her.

She had got the information she needed

Noticing even though it was swung with all her might I just left a few inches deep scar.

Meredith action were quickly before the creature could even cry out in pain its was bombarded but the three flashing fist Meredith and laughed earlier.

Screech!!!

The best cried out must be from that cut earlier, but she knew it wasn't enough.

'Remi what you got for me we don't have the strength or the energy to power it enough to remove its head'

'I got someth...'

Before Remi could finished, the entire cave suddenly stilled, with the remnant light from the explosion about to die down, an innumerable number of projectiles area heading for her, covering all rote she could doge.

Her eyes widen, not by the projectiles but the fact that all of them were scales, palm size scales of a beast presumably of the same rank of her weapon, she need she was in a bit a shit this time.

Suddenly Meredith eyes stated glowing a light white color her visual and mental perception reaction sky rocketed.

The best Black scales slowed down just enough for Meredith to see she only had one a change and one only to get he self in the lest encompassed area of scales and a line herself where the least amount of scales were, and need to get a much energy to her defense techniques as soon as she could, she only had one chance.

Immediate she flashed left she three projectiles arrive inform as she reached, they pierce though Meredith concentrated zones and longed themselves in her muscles almost move pierce her orangs.

Right a bust of air from her sided to keep her still prevent her from begin thrown about and entering the trajectories other scales, still amazed by the amount she be at least a thousand.

'Why it stripped itself for us so much they don't know each other such welcome was not needed' Remi chided seeing the quantity.

Remi'

Counter'

Now'

Meredith move are activated again flashing though trajectories she had predicted before, dogging them by millimeters, after the second flash she had doges the dense area of the other swarmed.

Her right hind blooded burned,

'Remi, Fire Spiritual energy was the only thing she had in abundance right now it would have to do'

One final flashed reaching just below left of it damage eye of the Basilisk.

'I'll take it from here.'

"Blood Yin Halberd Art; 7 Aspects of killing; Frist Form; Death though Stillness." Remi spoke aloud.

A blood color domain formed enveloping the creature not a moment later before disappearing.

Remi laughed as she swung her halberd releasing a think thick crescent blade energy.

Shot out with the distance not being much in the first place, the blade energy removed the Basilisk head easily.

With what remaining energy she put some distance between her and it just in case it had some fight left in it.

Landing she felt the impact of her battle hit her.

Kneeling over she threw up blood an organ fragments, astonished at the minimal damage done, even thing considered.

In her mind she though she would have been crippled if not half dead the very least, is this how cultivators fight dam this will take some time getting used too.

Other than 6-7 fractured ribs bused lungs and enlarged hear, her stomach was pretty badly damaged, a few snapped muscles she was ok, also the fact she was still conscious with such injuries in the first-place cultivators in general are dam sure resilient.

Granted she doubt most fought enemies if such levels by themselves. She said trying to regulate her breathing.

Many thanks, now she realized how broken defense and movement technique as for the halberd Art Remi used, she could even recite the dam first sentence before passing out she wondered how Remi managed to practiced it and even to a decent mastery at that too.

She would have to ask either what grades are these manuals.

Especial that for the Halberd Art.

Taking a few breaths, she grabbed a few healing pills from her spatial pouch in her inventory, she had already placed her weapon back in the system's space.

Rested for a few minutes allowing the massive amount of energy from the pills speed up her bodies natural regeneration fixing skin and some muscles in minutes, her ribs didn't hurt as much and the hole in her stomach was closed up feeling a bit better. she went o check on the best corps having the know of Material of this world stiffed in her head just be the words how could she know see the value in a beast corp.

Furthermore, it a high ranking one at that, considering how much pressure it put on her in the beginning which almost seal the deal it must be in the rank 3 the minimum simple it was worth more than a rank 3 corps she would have to get the prices later.

Walking over to the direction of the crops while releasing some motes of light, seeing the destruction cause by the creature scales, she picked up a quite a few wishing it had just kept the dam things on who takes off the covering during a fight and throwing them at the enemies.

Must say in this case there were dam effective, if not for being able to increase her perception she would and been bombarded restlessly which would strip away her energy and leave her vulnerable.

Soon enough her reached the body extending the light towards it only seen the head a few dozen meters away for her position the serpents; body she was expecting was not there only an extremely long line of grey and black ash.

...

While Meredith was taking care of the corps.

Member was the court were actively discussing her.

One holographic celestial she was currently weak a pitch back armors her muscles define hand folded across.

"Head, that last move … wasn't that the technique of that demonic sage, to think you had access to its techniques."

You have only lived a few million years, after living as long as I have you would eventually have such thing's at the ready."

"Meredith could also say to have luck on her side to choose halberd as one of her weapons, the techniques will carry her a far way as soon as she could use the other forms and techniques at will."

Nodding in acknowledgment she figures go the woman with the well-defined woman continued.

"The battle was one that didn't even last 30 seconds, but one could easily see it Meredith had a simple plan, see if her normal attack can injure it, both her other weapon would be in the same situation as her halberd as she simple lack the strength and energy to wield them like they should."

"If given another 10 years to cultivate getting used to the motion and styled of battles there she would not be the same as where are seeing now with her potential to become a great and terrifying cultivator." Another woman said.

Her physique is a bit lacking compared to cultivators of her cultivation"

"That's is indeed so, that not her fault cultivation infused energy in the body and nature their life starts hers were already half dead. it went beyond the just missing the best time for cultivating."

"However, when she gets a cultivation technique for the body all with be righted."

"I wonder if she is suited for me War Goddess Cannon?" the tall muscular armored woman said aloud to no one in particular.

"Head what about I hand the first page give her physique a bit of a boost?"

"That's fine however it sends it will add it to the list of things she would receive after break though the 3 rank in cultivation."

"Since were give techniques I would like to offer mine "a voice causing the young celestial souls to tremble.

"You seem to have made some improvements Yasi the body you're in can't hold out for much longer, do you have a body in place, I know finding one can be difficult."

I was in the process of it when I received your offer.

Alight, I have a mid-rank celestial body in storage I'll give it to you, you must contain your energies or else your killing the younger celestial even with your voice.

"Thank you head" the still sounded a bit excited.

"Send you techniques, but I must warn yours may not be readily accepted as the backlash for mortal are more than what most can bear, the karmic god of her universe might give her a hard time also, after she ascends. Are you sure?"

"I am".

"It will be done".

With a wave she cut off the connection Cassandra sigh with out a dough the gods there would not be happy.

"Are you sure you're going to send it to her, if so, we can't let the other champions, the may not be able to handle the fall out" Edith flash and appeared a few meters behind Cassandra?"

"I know but it's enough to cultivate until she becoming a goddess there, the cost in minimal, furthermore the choice is hers, is it not? just warn here of the consequence of doing so."

Still I remembered when Pandora ascended here, the realm was in chaos, no one though the Primordial Gods would let her become a celestial.

With a wave of her had an almost illusionary screen appeared of Meredith heading down the path the Basilisk came.

Edith look back "I wonder if she would become the next pandora".

Edith eyes widen at her master statement" If she did, she would bring Madam nothing but benefits"

"Remember to take the body from my Treasury"

Madam your treasury is empty you soul everting

Cassandra stumbles on nothing.

Everything?

Everting "Edith said failing to hide the smile that appeared on her face for a moment.

"You did in order to build the system a form the court."

"Dam it! I hate when I forget things." Frustrated the older she gets the move powerful she is the more she loses her memories at random sometimes she forgets just how much it could affect her.

Remembering something, perhaps she could trade it for something else.

Right away forgetting that she was just told that she sold everything.

"Who was it I sold too"

Death goddess" yeah, she won't go there she may be a member of her family she would rather not approach, with out a about she probably forgot what she told her self when she approached her sighing.

"Let's not bother her" after think for a moment.

"Take it from my sister treasury make it a high grade one too, she won't even know it missing." with all the wealth she received from father.

"Also, is there anything else I forgot" asked just for asked sake.

"Your father's origin date was a celestial cycle ago." Meredith answered.

"No!" voice raised in horror.

Not again!

"Yes" Edith barely surpassing her tone of voice, no matter how much to reminds her master of thing she just kept on forgetting she has taken a personal liking too it.

"How many have I missed since"

"348 to date".

A frustrated groan came from her madam.

"Did you remined me". hoping that Edith was the one who a forgotten.

"I did" another groan was heard

"I need to go see my father, I had promised I wouldn't miss another."

Edith heard her master say before she walked tough the void.

Giggle Edith finial let out the small teal laughter she was hold back.
