Chapter 631 Target Achieved
Nadia's brownish-black and dark fur were slightly burned in some locations.
It was not fire but light rather didn't intermix with dark generally, hence it caused her fur to be affected negatively when her dark attributed body met with light attributed energy.
Now, both the Radiant Mountain Deer and Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf looked like they were out of energy but to Davis, it became clear that Nadia is the one who was on the losing end.
They fiercely fought with innumerable scars staining their bodies; extremely strong bodies, however, the Radiant Mountain Deer managed to hold out in the end and completely drain Nadia's energy reserves.
The Twin-Tailed Dusk Wolf heavily breathed, trying to inhale whatever little heaven and earth she can breathe in and refine, however, no matter how she absorbed, it didn't catch up to her usage of energy.
Looking at the Twin-Tailed Wolf's miserable and tired state, the Radiant Mountain Deer let out a victorious laugh.
"Foolish Wolf! If you've withstood my species ability earlier, you would've won but you're a scared wolf."
"You're scared of my light, you evil wolf!"
Nadia grit her teeth in frustration and exhaustion. She felt parched. She had expended all her energy and could only sacrifice her blood essence to escape.
That was the only choice granted to her eyesight. In her bloodline memories, there was a dark-attributed escape technique but she wasn't sure that it would allow her to escape from this light-attributed Magical Beast.
It could only intimidate the Radiant Mountain Deer as it barred its muzzle, revealing its two sharp fangs and rows of canine teeth that were bloodied from the Radiant Mountain Deer's flesh.
However, contrary to Nadia's battered body, the Radiant Mountain Deer's body had mostly healed. Only a few injuries that were deep before were visible but they too looked closed mostly.
Davis became speechless when he listened to its limited vocabulary...
"Perhaps Magical Beasts do not talk much but just use their strength to do the talking and their posture to convey their intent, intimidating their opponent in the process."
He commented again, making Evelynn giggle a little.
"Nadia needs help..." She added.
"Right..." Davis pursed his lips and stood up. His soul flickered and almost instantly, he cast Soul Suppression Art on the Radiant Mountain Deer.
*Bzz!~*
The Radiant Mountain Deer suddenly experienced a heavy pressure weighing in it but it didn't do much other than restricting its movements momentarily. It felt that it could break the suppression the next instant, but he instead saw the dark wolf near him!
Nadia instantly launched herself at the Radiant Mountain Deer when she received the Soul Transmission from Davis. She knew that she had lost but in the end, this is a battle that decides their life and death.
She didn't want to die, so she didn't think much and instantly pounced on the Radiant Mountain Deer on his command and to her surprise, the Radiant Mountain Deer didn't react to her attack and stayed just like that.
Her gaping jaw landed on his neck as she sunk in her heavy and sharp fangs while her claws held pushed his body towards the ground.
Blood spurted again like a fountain!
The Radiant Mountain Deer let out a ghastly scream! He didn't expect that he would encounter a mysterious power descending directly upon his soul, making him unable to move at the last moment. Furthermore, not only was it the same moment he thought that victory was in his grasp, the soul suppression had a certain attribute to it that made it feel enormous fear!
Nadia didn't let him go as she used whatever remaining little dark energy she had and stuck her teeth heavily. She then tightly held his body and moved her head to the side, trying to tear apart the head from the neck!
Nadia became ferocious!
Seeing that the Radiant Mountain Deer was unable to retaliate with its light energy species ability due to exhaustion, she heavily bit on to him even more as blood started to spurt like a fountain.
Her head moved sideways many times before she ripped off its head from his neck. However, the head was still connected with the neck, albeit, there was a huge gaping hole that let gallons of blood paint the ground in pure crimson!
The Radiant Mountain Deer still kept echoing his death throes, right before Nadia completely ripped off his head from the neck!
Davis became rather astonished to see that the Radiant Mountain Deer was still alive after half his head got ripped off.
"That's some huge vitality it possesses..." He commented and flew towards Nadia who had already started to dig in the feast she hunted!
With his help, of course...
Chewing and grinding sounds echoed! And in a few seconds, its entire head, excluding its antlers were swallowed.
Nadia had a bloody mouth and the blood stuck on to her fur and snout, temporally making her lust for blood. She then proceeded to eat the body as she swung her huge muzzle of canine teeth.
The sound and sight of meat being torn apart and being chewed on rather made Evelynn look the other way, but she told herself to not avert her gaze because she felt that perhaps in the future, she might see more gruesome deaths that she couldn't even imagine currently.
Davis nonchalantly flew aside and stored the spatial ring but before that, before Nadia could completely swallow the head she chewed on, he absorbed the Radiant Mountain Deer's, Soul Essence.
He didn't disturb her feasting and returned to Evelynn, pondering if he should attempt to break through to the Supreme Soul Stage. However, he decided against it, feeling that he was rather hasty.
Evelynn didn't take her eyes off the wild and bloody scene even after Davis came to her side. She intently viewed it and felt her mind to be rather disoriented as she became slightly dizzy. However, she bit her lips and forced herself to watch.
The enormous amount of blood that smelled nauseating made her nose wrinkle in disgust and displeasure.
A chop suddenly landed on her head, causing her to blink.
"Don't force yourself... You'll gain immunity to these gradually, not in a single time." Davis smiled.
"Mhm~"
Evelynn obediently hummed.
======
The next day, while riding around the area, Davis made Nadia fight two more Lord Beast Stage Magical Beasts and absorbed their Soul Essences.
He could try battling the Lord Beast Stage with his Soul Forging Cultivation but with Nadia near, he felt like a beast tamer as he ordered her to battle for him.
With this, he had as many as three Low-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essences and a single Mid-Level Lord Beast Stage Soul Essence.
Nadia didn't eat the two Magical Beast carcasses, so it went to Davis. Nonetheless, she became able to fight better in one-on-one battles.
In the past, she had mostly attacked with packs, but after these three battles, she felt as if there were a lot of ideas popping up in her head on how to target her enemies single-handedly at the precise moment.
Also, it became easier to ambush the other Lord Beast Stage Magical Beasts for her in the beginning since they weren't light attributed like the Radiant Mountain Deer who managed to detect her before she even attacked. Nevertheless, even after ambushing them and accomplishing to inflict critical wounds upon them, they still managed to escape from her sharp teeth and claws.
She felt that if she could improve on her concealed attacks, then she felt that she could take out Magical Beasts equaling to her stage and level by instakilling them.
This wasn't mere conjecture but more of her bloodline memories feeding her of the ways her predecessors hunted.
