Chapter 438

/*unedited*/

The morning light shone brightly in the sky while the rich air filled with the natural energy of the world enriched everything in it. The trees and plants grow and are filled with the mystic power of the world, while the living creatures cultivate and enhance their bodies to adapt through the changes. The world of Gaeus Ro is a world filled with mysticism, adventure, and danger.

And in this world, the weak are trampled by the strong. However, after the appearance of the demons and the destruction of the land of the beast clan, everything has changed. The mortals who were deemed as a week has gained a foothold in this world as they began to utilize the power of technology to become strong themselves.

And the great emperor of the whole of the cultivation land has imposed a law to prevent wars between races to erupt. This is because a treaty was created between the races of the large continent.

With that, the races of humans, beastmen, and demons began to live in a temporary peace.

After the law was imposed, many lands and kingdoms hesitated to obey. But then those who did reap the benefit it offered. Their lands became populated and gained more than those who stubbornly rejected the imposed law.

And in some cities, people can see humans, beastmen, and demons living together.

It has been more than a decade since then and the whole continent has already adopted the law. However, there are still places that didn\'t accept such law and stayed with their own kind.

Daemon forest

In this fine morning, a group of people are currently running towards a particular location. Two of them are human cultivators, four are beastmen, two are demons, and two are mortal humans riding mechs.

They are currently doing a training exercise on the border of the middle and outer parts of the forest. This training exercise is part of their school\'s curriculum to train each of the young ones for combat. From the looks of it, the ten people are in their teens and are not that strong to enter the middle part of the vast forest.

Following behind them are three cultivators which look like their teachers.

"This is the best batch of our students to enter the upcoming tournament of the San Kingdom."

"Yes, I agree… young as they are, they can now ever this deep in the forest without a problem. I hope that this live training exercise can keep help them in the tournament."

"We shall see…"

The three talked as they floated to through the air following the people below.

Suddenly, they heard a loud explosion from a distance, which made everyone stop on their tracks.

"What was that?" one of the teachers asked.

"I think someone is hunting a very powerful beast in the middle part of the forest."

"We should stay away from that place… the monster there is really dangerous."

"How about we retreat for now…"

The three talked as they scanned the area.

Suddenly one of the students looks up and shouted to the teachers.

"Teacher! I wanted to check that place out." A student with snow-white skin and a single small horn on his head said.

From his feature, one can tell that he is a demon, but his face looks really handsome. The young human woman beside him had a look of worry in her eyes.

"Don\'t worry, you know my set of skills, right?" he said as he patted the woman\'s head.

Then another student steps forward, from his looks he is from a feline clan.

"I will go to, I will assist Gindal…" he said with a strange beastman accent.

The teachers look at each other and one of them nodded his head. It is clear that he wanted to volunteer and assist the two students to check the situation.

With a tacit understanding, the three immediately moved and rushes through the middle part of the forest.

Meanwhile…

Shin Jiao are watching while the mutants are trying to tackle a large beast. Right now he is trying to train the mutants so that they would be able to survive inside the forest as they travel towards the outside world. He is sure that in their travel they are going to encounter many beasts as they didn\'t have any means of safe transport other than walking.

It has already been a week since they came to this world and for the entire week, all they did was training. Susan Tang is also busy in absorbing the mana in the air as she jumps her level by leaps and bound. She now reached the apex of the novice mage and would soon become a 1st level mage. Besides her Mary and the other mages are also training themselves.

Mary knew that they would not be always so lucky to encounter a powerful cultivator to help them go through the forest with ease. Hence growing their own power is still the best choice.

"Shin, this thing is really tough… I think we can\'t defeat it!" shouted Captain James as he rapidly fires energy bullets to the beast that looks like a giant crocodile.

"���Again, as I told you… you can control your powers. You are like the mages back there, but your body has evolved and is able to utilize energy without even concentrating. However, the downside of this is that your attacks have their own limit in power. Hence you must learn to improve your power and increase the output by will. If not, then you and your team would not be able to go through this forest alive."

"Damn it!" cursed the rest of the mutants as they heard Shin Jiao\'s words.

It has been weeks as they tried to control their own powers, but no matter how hard they tried it was the same and no improvement was met.

Suddenly, one of them became careless and was hit by the tail of the crocodile-like beast.

"No! Aide! Owl, help him!" shouted Captain James in anger.

His eyes suddenly glow and his vision change. He began seeing the beast differently as he pointed his finger towards an area.

Then when he released his power, a fist-size beam came out and hit that spot on the beast\'s body. The large beast suddenly fell to the ground as it groaned in pain.

Then Captain James didn\'t hesitate anymore as the words of Shin Jiao reverberate in his mind. He must maintain and analyze that feeling he had back then and use it consciously to enhance his power.

As he focused this time, his heart is calm and his vision didn\'t revert back to normal. He then pointed his finger on the beast\'s head and before the beast could react, a thin line of blue beam appears and hit one of its eyes.

Roar!!!

The monster roared as its body fell limp to the ground and died.

When everyone saw this, they looked at Captain James with admiration. They knew that he has discovered something and would want to ask how he did it.

Shin Jiao also saw what happened and has already analyzed the condition of the body of Captain James Crugger. He now knows how to help the mutants in obtaining a higher level of power. As they were about to celebrate, a loud explosion woke them all from their excitement.

"It seems that there are strong beasts that are fighting in that area." Shin Jiao said as he turns his gaze towards a particular direction.

From where he stood, he can feel that there are around three or four beasts that are fighting in the area. And from the amount of energy they are emitting, he can tell that they are level 5 beasts and is not a match to the people he is with.

"Captain James, I advise all of you to retreat to the safe zone for now. I will go and check the situation." Shin Jiao said as he waves his hand and stores the giant beast\'s carcass in his ring.

With this command, the team immediately rushes back to the protected area near the portal.

"What do you think is happening?" Magenta asks as he follows behind Captain James Crugger.

"I don\'t know, but I can smell trouble. We should go back and tell this to the other so that we can prepare." Captain James said as he leads the group towards the safe zone.

Shin Jiao flew above the trees and began to feel the restriction imposes by the forest in his body. So he decided to use the treetops and glide at a really fast speed as he went to the direction of the explosion.

It didn\'t take long, and soon he reached an area where a black smoke is rising in the air and the heads of gigantic beasts can be seen above the tall trees.

"Hmm… level 5 titan beasts… these are some of the forest kings… Why are they fighting in this area?" Shin Jiao muttered as he activated the cloaking mechanism of his suit and flew closer.

As he drew closer he can see that there are four gigantic beasts and they are trying to fight against each other. A large part of the forest is already in ruins as debris of rocks and trees are all over the place. One of the beasts can breathe fire which might have caused the explosion.

"This is good… I lack a higher-level beast core. These four will do." Shin Jiao said with a grin.

After absorbing almost 80% of the Qi and mana contents of the vats, he has exactly reached the 60th sphere and has officially entered the nascent realm in terms of Qi and mana in his body, though his physique is a bit lower as he has not consolidated his cultivation yet.
