"Ikhhh . . . What is that?" Calista Qian Lin screamed, seeing the terrifying creature in front of her while hiding behind her brother's body.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a terrifying figure appeared in that place. Its body resembled a human, more precisely a woman without wearing any clothes. However, the entire body of the creature was a glossy black, so no one would suspect that the creature was naked. Its facial features were like those of most women, except this creature had three eyes, one of which was right in the middle of its forehead. Only that eye differed in color from the rest of its body, being red.
The creature looked even more terrifying with its very long hair touching the ground, even though it was about five spear lengths above the ground at that time. The hair was so thick that it scattered everywhere, showing the horror of the creature. Moreover, its glowing red eyes made the creature's terrifying impression even stronger.
"Who are you?" Julius snapped with a challenging tone.
"I should be the one asking who you are, daring to enter my territory, this area is forbidden for anyone no matter who they are. Anyone who enters this place only has two choices, to become my slave if I find them suitable or to leave their life here."
"Do you think I'm afraid of you?" challenged Julius.
Only Julius at that place still had the courage to even challenge the terrifying creature who was the master of the Thousand Deaths Forest. Meanwhile, the Calista siblings were already very scared of the creature in front of them. Especially when the creature began to emit a greenish light, making the atmosphere even more tense.
"I will keep it busy, both of you leave this place first, don't wait!" Julius said to the two siblings.
Both of them, who were already very frightened, just followed what Julius said. They no longer cared about what the young man would do, as long as their lives were safe. They didn't even consider that the young man they had just met was trying to save their lives, even though they had just met him.
"Now!" exclaimed Julius.
At that moment, Julius prepared the Thunder God's Nine Swords attack to face the creature, the master of the Thousand Deaths Forest. However, Julius was shocked to find out that the attack he launched had absolutely no effect on the creature. The attack was thwarted by the creature's hair. Meanwhile, other strands of hair whipped the Calista siblings, throwing them back to where they started.
The Calista siblings immediately fainted unconscious from the creature's blow. Meanwhile, Julius, still bewildered, began to be attacked by the creature's menacing hair. With swift and agile movements, Julius tried to evade every attack. The attacks were so strange; wherever Julius dodged, the hair always followed, as if it could extend on its own.
"Thunder God's Universe Breaker Sword Technique!"
Once again, Julius tried to fight against the strange attacks from the creature. This time, he used the ultimate technique from his family's arsenal. Surprisingly, the technique managed to sever the hair that kept pursuing him. But strangely, the severed hair grew back and lengthened, attacking Julius again.
"What is this!" cursed Julius.
He ran and leaped, dodging the attacks from the creature's hair, which was now almost entirely targeting him. Julius tried to deflect the attacks with the Thunder God's Universe Breaker Sword Technique. The same thing happened again; the attacks were temporarily deflected by Julius, cutting off the creature's hair. However, the long hair quickly grew back.
"Damn it! If this continues, I'll run out of energy."
