Yang Zhai fell to the ground. He spat out blood.
"The Second Life Ka has gotten injured, my chest is hurting, I need to leave this battlefield soon or it will be bad,"
Yang Zhai stood up from the ground with difficulty. He was panting heavily.
The body cultivator who just attacked Yang Zhai had half of his body turned black because of the Damnation Snake. In fact, the snake had even eaten the cultivator's right arm as well as half of the waist and chest. He could die anytime. The reason he was still alive was due to the fact that he was a body cultivator.
I can get rid of him with the help of the Corpse Collector by summoning a rank 5 gorilla. It is definitely stronger than him in strength. But if I do so, I would be open to others. If I get attacked by them now, it would be difficult to evade all of their attacks: Yang Zhai reflected.
In a battle of experts, everything mattered. Sometimes getting injured could save one's life.
The cultivator lunged at Yang Zhai with all his strength. It seemed like he had already considered it to be his last strike.
Blood formed into a shield in front of Yang Zhai. He himself was about to jump backward but couldn't.
The toll Second Life Ka took was showing up.
The shield broke. Having no choice left, he forced the Blood Demon Ka into maintaining the blood shield forcefully.
More blood also came out of the Storage Ka he had and thickened the shield.
Cracks began to appear on the Blood Demon Ka.
Suddenly, the blood shield shattered, and so did the Blood Demon Ka, it died.
The force behind the cultivator's punch lessened a lot. Yang Zhai moved his right arm forward and endured the punch.
With this, the cultivator breathes his last breath. The snake managed to eat his heart.
However, the mere seconds he bought by not summoning a gorilla helped him as the inheritance gate finally manifested.
However, he had lost his strength and he was standing about twenty meters away from the gate. If he ran now, he would surely be struck down.
"I need to make them drop their guard…"
Yang Zhai fell to the ground. He was just acting to make the bandits let their guard down.
The bandits relaxed for a mere second and prepared to bombard him with attacks.
However, The Last One appeared and grabbed Yang Zhai. It didn't run but threw Yang Zhai towards the inheritance gate. After that, it disappeared.
"What? Who was that?!"
The bandits were left in shock.
They relaxed for a mere second and something like this happened.
A mere second gave The Last One the chance to throw Yang Zhai towards the gate.
"Not good, chase him!" The leader shouted.
Yang Zhai's momentum was too great and the distance was too much. Their cultivator methods wouldn't be able to reach him in this short while.
Yang Zhai entered the gate but was still flying because of the force with which The Last One threw him.
"Come Forth,"
However, he muttered and a rank 5 gorilla appeared into the air. It grabbed him and landed on the ground, saving him from a powerful impact he could incur when he touched the ground.
It was black inside. A dark space filled with stars appeared behind the door. The gorilla carried him to the middle of the hound army and guarded him. The Last One also appeared and stood beside him.
He activated Meliora and started to heal his injuries while he sat on the ground.
Many cultivators followed him into the inheritance gate.
"Where are we?" Someone asked.
He looked around and saw darkness. Many stars make this place a strange beauty in itself.
"Wh, what's that… loo, look there…" a cultivator muttered with wide eyes.
He was sweating profusely, a fear could be seen in his eyes.
The other cultivators followed his gaze and looked in a certain direction.
They first saw a pair of eyes. After that appeared many, then a lot, then thousands, and then hundreds of thousands of pairs of eyes
Then appeared a hound in their eyes.
Even though it was a hound, its appearance resembled that of a wolf. Its fur was pure black with slight white stripes. Its height was two and a half feet, and it had deep violet-colored eyes. It was the rank 5 Water Hound.
Thereafter appeared many, then thousands, and then hundreds of thousands of hounds in their eyes.
All of their eyes widened. This wasn't just an army, but to them, this seemed like...
"This is bad, this is extremely bad…"
"We need to leave, we need to leave this place right away!"
"No… we can't…"
"What do you mean?!"
"Look, the gate… the gate… disappeared!"
This left everyone in shock.
"We're… doomed,"
A cultivator muttered this when a hound bit his neck and severed a huge piece of flesh out of it.
Everyone stared at this with wide eyes.
The cultivator wanted to shout out of pain, but couldn't as his vocal cords had been damaged.
He didn't blindly just send the hounds at the cultivators.
Right after the hound bit a piece of flesh out of the cultivator's neck, a gorilla came from above, landed near a cultivator, and severed his neck from his torso.
After that, it jumped away.
A gorilla was considered strong even among the beasts of the same rank. It could even go toe to toe with a rank 5 cultivator, a mere rank 4 cultivator was nothing to it.
After that, the hounds started to pounce on the cultivators, accompanying them a rank 5 gorilla.
Yang Zhai lay on the ground, resting.
He couldn't heal the Second Life Ka as it was a ka. Meliora could only heal him.
Even he couldn't be fully healed. Meliora wasn't so powerful as to restore his broken bones to their original state, especially the modified ones.
"As such, my condition has gotten worse and I can't engage in hand-to-hand fights anymore, I must avoid them. I must obtain something to heal the Second Life Ka at the Eroh Domain."
…..
Outside the inheritance gate,
The gate was still there and the cultivators waited outside.
"What's happening inside? Why haven't they come out yet?"
"They should have gotten rid of him by now…"
"Let us go and see for ourselves,"
Just to be careful, they sent a rank 5 cultivator as well.
With this, three more cultivators went inside and never came out.
