The bare was quickly advancing towards tina. But a certain someone who had just heeled up was not going to let the bare kill tina. Jin advanced towards the bare, drawing out his sword and spinning it in a spiral motion. Arks of lightning could be seen dancing on the edges of his sword and he quickly thrusted his sword in the bares direction.
The bare was moving very fast so when the sword came advancing towards it, it does not managed to move out of the range and was struck by the devastating crackling lightning.
"second divine hexagram: Spiraling storm wave!"
Booom!
an explogen happened which also uprooted the remaining trees and some of them got plunged inside the bare's body riddling it with wounds.
"rooooooooooooooar! Roooooooooooooooooaaaaaar!"
the bare howled in great rage and also pain. Blood was continuously dripping down from its wounds; the bare was constantly losing health every passing second because of bloodlosse. But if it was only this, the bare would have been fine; but jin could also see that the lightning from the spiraling storm wave was also rampaging inside the bares body due to being used from a point blank range.
It's internals were in a bad mess already; with a single attack of jin, he had caused massive damage to the monstrous bare. The already furious bare was now at the point of exploding just out of sheer rage; it could not imagine that a puny lowly vampire had dared to challenge it's might! In his eyes, there weren't many who were daring enough to challenge his authority in these parts of the forests because whoever had dared to step-up were slain by its army so when he saw the vampire trespassing in his territory it was even more enraged. It was injured by a vampire, further added salt to its wounds but it was now its turn to attack the puny vampire.
Jin had attacked the bare from a point blank range; although it damaged the bare by a great degree, it also meant that jin could be easily attacked by the bare's paw; and attack it did! The bare swiped his paw at jins face cutting and making a 5-cm deep gash across his face.
blood started to flow out like a tsunami; his health started to go down rapidly but he refrained to use the pearl's ability because of the limit of use. He was sure that his current stats will let him fight for another minute against the bare.

The battle with tina had exhausted him very much, he had even lost some health while fighting her but above all, the thing affected him the most was the losse of mana; he could recover his health by drinking blood, but for mana, he could not recover it instantaneously like his health. For mana, he has to weight every time he spended for it to naturally recover.
The only thing he could do now was to spend as little as possible so he did not exhaust himself fully because he did not knew that whether this bare is the last monster or others of its kind will attack him or not so the best thing, he could do was to prepare accordingly for everything.
He started to revolve his mana in his own body and slowly making the mana appear first on his limbs then his full body. Slowly, he was covered in mana from head to toe and his body was releasing a whitish glow which quickly spreads everywhere in a matter of seconds.
He ran like a Bullet and appeared behind the bare in an instant. His speed was much greater than before with the mana re-in forcing his body with sheer raw strength. Jin threw a punch towards the bare, straight at his head!
Booooooom!
The force behind the punch was strong enough to shatter the air as small, tiny spatial cracks started appearing and disappearing, repaired by the natural mana of the world. The poor bare was sent flying in the air just from the force; it just now realized what kind of enemy he has made of himself as it struggled for its survival being on the cusp of death. But the bare would not let itself be killed so easily, though, in a final struggle to preserve its life, it started to use the mana inside it's body to cover it's body in ice to stop the massive losse of blood and to frees it's wounds.
When jin saw what was happening, he could not believe his eyes! "how is this possible? I never knew that such a thing was even possible…".
A beast using mana to enhance its body, if someone else were to hear it they would have called jin an idiot for even believing such an absurd thing. But what was happening in front of him was not a new occurrence for jin; for him, he had seen this type of things, and also the things greater then this back in the Cultivator realm.
He had seen massive beasts the sizes of city covering their bodies in Divine chi and destroying the whole city only by making their bodies step inside the cities and crushing the cities with their weight only.
The bare was very injured, it was not even able to move properly. It seemed that it will take a lot of time for it to recover properly. Jin came running towards the bare; although he was running, he did not let his cortion drop for even a second because even if the bare was disorientated, it was still a formidable foe for jin who was very low on mana.
He only had 80 points of mana remaining, which were being rapidly consumed by the re-inforcement of mana he had just done to increase his strength. He was Pritty low on mana and jin does not want to entangle a foe which could overpower him with its raw strength alone. He does not wanted to be flown back again, like what had happened at their first collision.
Approaching the massive bare covered in thick ice, jin raised his sword and put it against the neck of the bare; while doing so, he glanced back towards tina to look whether she had regained consciousness. Jin wanted to bind this bare's soul with tina to make the bare her beast companion. By doing this, jin will ensure a tina's loyalty, and will also gain a powerful beast as his allied pet but when he saw that tina was still unconscious, he had to change his plan a little bit. Now, instead of tina, he would be the one to bind the bare's soul to himself and will finally make a companion.
