Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: Hunting the beasts (5)

Henry headed toward the neck of the beast and then he screamed out loudly.

"You will die here today," Henry said loudly.

He slashed the neck of the beast while the dragon held the beast down.

The blade went through around half of his neck. However, after that, it got stuck. No matter how much Henry tried the sword won't go through.

When the blade of Henry went halfway through his neck. The beast kept releasing roars of pain loudly. It was so loud that it almost caused Henry's ears to bleed.

*ROAR ROAR ROAR ROAR ROAR ROAR!!!!!!!!*The beast let out powerful roars of pain.

The nearby beast looked at the beasts with anxious eyes. However, when they looked at the one responsible for almost killing him.

Only fear can be seen in their eyes.

*Roar Roar Roar!*The beast let out weak roars.

Right after they let out the weak roars they began to run as far as possible from Henry.

Only a few beasts remained. These beasts were the strongest among the pack that was summoned. The beast also showed signs of intelligence.

However, Henry noticed this. Only his loud words could be heard now.

"Why can't I slash through the entire head of the beast? Am I lacking the strength to do it?

Regardless I will have to be 100 percent it has to die or I won't even know when I will die" Henry said in anxiety.

But he knew the beast would die anyway.

Since there is no way it can survive this, however, he is just cautious.

The flames around his sword also started to burn the neck of the beast. Blood came from it's neck out like water coming out like a broken dam.

Also, Henry kept pushing his sword so that he can slash through the neck of the beast completely.

However, he failed to do so but he heard the sound of bones cracking resounding through the entire place.

*Kasch Kaacha*

He realized where this sound is coming from.

"Oh, so the bones of the beast are breaking due to the grip of the dragon, "Henry thought to himself with a smile.

He was about to continue slashing the neck of the beast. However at that moment.

The eyes of the beast shut down lifelessly. It was like the beast is dead; however, to confirm this theory, Henry did something.

"Let me test something," Henry said in a soft tone.

Then Henry slashed the eyes of the beast as hard as he can. However, the beast won't react.

It didn't let out a roar or so much as move any of his body parts even slightly. He let out a sigh since it can only mean one thing.

"The beast has finally died, I am safe now, "Henry thought to himself.

Then he held his sword and would be about to fall to the ground. However, he noticed something.

"Are those beasts?"Henry thought to himself as he looked at the ground.

He counted how many beasts there are. Also how high their cultivation realm is.

He gulped a mouthful of saliva after seeing the cultivation realm of the beasts.

He muttered a few words to himself.

"They have a spiritual cultivation realm of mid-stage Basic Qi core formation realm.

Also, they are around 5 of them. In my current state defeating them will be almost impossible.

However regardless I will have to fight them to survive" Henry said softly.

He signaled the dragon to come here and the dragon saved him from his fall.

The dragon took him to the ground and right when he was about to land the beasts charged towards him with murderous intent.

He ignored them and signaled the dragon.

The dragon didn't make any sound nor did he did anything, instead, it started to deform into an aura.

This aura began to surround the body of Henry in the form of armor. The aura started to become hard like armor.

The armor looked like the scales of a dragon.

Although the armor still had a few holes here and there. It's the injuries of the dragon.

Since the dragon is still here it just has taken a different shape.

However, Henry just ignored this since he can't do anything about it since his spiritual energy is almost null.

He didn't even know that he can win due to how low his spiritual energy is.

However all of a sudden he remembered something important that can change the course of this battle.

"Wait, I can use my physique to draw in earth's spiritual energy. That will increase my chances of victory.

But it can damage my cultivation. I will have to take this risk. I will try to absorb the earth's spiritual energy while fighting them"Henry thought to himself with a serious look on his face.

He took a look at his surroundings and saw the beast just be a hair distance away from reaching him.

He jumped up in the air and then spikes came out from his hands. He didn't use the spiritual energy to create them.

He used the spiritual energy in the armor to create them. Due to this, the armor had gotten considerably weaker than before.

The spikes landed on the back of the beasts. When the spikes hit him, it went deep into the skin of the beasts

Blood started to come out from there and they will let out a roar.

*ROAR ROAR ROAR!!" They roared in pain. Henry landed on the ground and closed his eyes for a split second. He tried to sense the earth's spiritual energy on the ground.

During this moment the beast charged towards him at an incredible speed. However, Henry was too focused to notice this.

Then less than a second later Henry smiled slightly while keeping his eyes closed.

"Finally I have found the earth's spiritual energy. Now I will just have to draw the spiritual energy towards me"Henry thought to himself with a serious look on his face.

He began to draw in as much of Earth's spiritual energy as possible. When they entered his body he felt a tremendous power coursing through his body.

His muscles, fibers, and bones became a lot stronger. However, a moment later he started to feel pain in his muscles, bones, and fibers.

It was like they are being torn apart. Then a notification flashed on his retina.

(Presence of earth spiritual energy detected. Please use your cultivation technique to nourish your fiber, bones, and muscles to break through the next realm.

Instead of just channeling the earth's spiritual energy into your body for temporary benefits.

This can damage your spiritual cultivation)

Henry reads the message slowly but he just sighed and ignored it.

"I wouldn't have done this if I could have survived somehow, "Henry thought to himself with a serious look on his face.

Then he drew in more earth spiritual energy. When he felt like that he had reached his limit.

He stopped and opened his eyes.He was surprised to see that the beasts are still quite a distance away.

"I think only a second or two has passed since I closed my eyes,

Regardless the pain is too great I must finish this quickly."Henry thought to himself.

He took a look at his armor and realized that it has also gotten stronger. The holes on it had completely disappeared.

He felt his body is a lot stronger than before but the pain he was feeling now is unimaginable.

Then Henry let out a roar that shook the surrounding area.

"Come to me and die!!!!!"Henry screamed out loudly.

Henry began to drag his sword to the ground. The friction that acted on the sword started to increase the temperature of the sword.

Then slowly the sword started to turn red due to the heat produced on it. S but surely small flames started to form around it.

Then he jumped and locked onto the neck of the beast. He charged toward it at an incredible speed.

He appeared in front of the neck of the beast within a minute. He started to exert as much force as he can on the sword with the help of his muscles.

However, then Henry saw a beast approaching him with open fangs. Henry assumed he would die if he doesn't do anything.

"Oh no," Henry said as he watched the beast get closer and closer.
