Chapter 333: Dark Soul Raven
Sam didn't dare to stay anymore. He knew what would happen if he dared to stay here.
His energy cells destroyed many nascent stage cultivators and even managed to damage some Pre-transcendent stage cultivators.
After throwing the energy cells, he took out a sniper rifle and aimed at the back as he moved forward. He didn't care what is in the front for now.
He started shooting energy cell bullets as he aimed at the cultivators.
Some Pre-transcendent stage cultivators and transcendent stage cultivators tried to resist the Devouring vines and started pursuing Sam and Watt.
The Faction-head who has the most resistance towards the Vine wanted to make a move as well, but Sanjay's uncle blocked him and looked at him and the Ancestor coldly.
"If both of you want to make a move, then you can do so after going through me."
With that, he raised his aura and got ready to battle.
"Hmph," The Faction-head snorted and said. "Do you think, just by stopping us, you can save him?"
With those words, he took out a token and crushed it.
Sanjay's uncle and the ancestor both widened their eyes and yelled.
"Are you crazy?" Both of them wanted to make a move, but the faction-head forcefully tore the devourer vines physically and spat out a mouthful of blood.
He closed his eyes and soon his body also started releasing dense spiritual energy. He released his limiter.
"Today, he has to die. No matter what price I have to pay, that bastard who has the same blood as 'that' person." His expression was twisted and he laughed crazily.
At the exact moment the faction-head crushed the token, the whole faction rumbled and huge spiritual energy started raising from the hunting grounds.
Sam and Watt who are running arrived at the residence area and reduced their altitude. Philip ran towards them and Sam let him into the divine dimension.
They increased the altitude again. There are two large formations active in the place and one of them is the formation arranged by Philip and Sam the night before and another one is the formation that was laid out by the beast faction to increase the spiritual energy.
The two formations are overlapping each other and that is the reason for the spiritual energy turmoil.
After increasing their altitude, Sam aimed the rifle at two spots and shot energy cell bullets.
They are the cores of the two formations and the spiritual energy started roaring.
And the whole area under the influence of the formations is under turmoil and all the infrastructure has been crushed and reduced to rubble.
The pursuers who arrived a second later to the same spot felt their whole body under the loss of control and they fell off of their beasts and some Pre-transcendent stage cultivators even died on the spot.
He picked Jack at the next spot and some shadow mice in the next few places.
The same thing repeated at every place in the faction. The whole faction's infrastructure is being damaged.
In the middle-of-the streak, Sam suddenly felt a sense of crisis as he looked at the mountain in the hunting grounds.
The Space-gates are near that place and he has to go there, but an aura which is far more powerful than anything he has ever experienced was being released from that place and the aura seemed to have locked on Sam and Watt who are in the forefront and nearest to the place.
A huge bird flew up to the sky.
It is a raven and the dark elemental energy is been completely seething out of it without control.
It is a Consummate realm beast and seemed to be a higher level at that.
Its aura is completely locked at Sam and Watt. Sam halted in his tracks and dragged Watt into the dimension. He took out a transference scroll and activated it without thinking the direction is going to move.
He disappeared from the spot and arrived at a new place a thousand kilometers away from the faction.
He doesn't know where he is at, but it seemed to be an empty island within the Beast-faction's territory, but to his surprise and trepidation, he couldn't feel safe at all.
He still felt the same sense of crisis and this time, it came from above.
When he looked upwards, he saw a huge raven eye appear in the sky and it is locked on him.
This is a Raven of Dark element and soul attacks are its specialty. He used the transference scroll just because he doesn't want to get locked on by the raven.
But it seemed that he was too late.
He took a deep breath. The raven is creating its attack and he has to get ready for this. He took out the shadow sword.
"Oh? Dark Soul Raven? Kid, you seemed to have provoked the Beast faction too badly."
Sam didn't reply to that comment and said.
"I want your help."
"Kid. You are not strong enough to wield me. You have to reach the Transcendent realm to even fight normally, even now, because of my self-control, you are able to carry me. Otherwise, you would be dead for sure."
"I have an idea."
Sam took out the thunder prison and started modifying its structure and the thunder prison started changing its form into a metallic arm, he threw the shadow sword into the air and made the thunder prison catch it.
The energy within the thunder prison helped him take off the burden on him as he wielded the shadow sword through it.
"Not bad. But you won't be able to escape unscathed." The sword spirit said in a solemn tone.
"I know."
The might of the thunder prison mainly depends on his own power. The higher his individual power, the more he would be able to unlock the abilities of the thunder prison.
The current thunder prison is still not enough to eliminate the backlash of the shadow sword, he has to take some damage.
The thunder prison hovered in the air as it held the shadow sword, the sword is extremely small in the gigantic hand and to his surprise, the sword condensed the dark elemental energy condensed it into a sword shape in the middle of which the sword stayed.
The sword image fits perfectly within the arm.
Sam looked at the raven eye which is about to attack and Sam could feel his soul tremble to indicate the beginning of the attack.
He slashed his arm and the thunder prison followed his movements which made a dark colored sword ray fly towards the eye.
Sam felt his spiritual core tremble and a small crack appeared on it. He spat out a mouthful of blood. The eye disappeared but Sam wasn't completely safe from the attack, he felt a soul-searing pain.
He clutched his head with his arms and knelt down to endure the pain.
Meanwhile, the Dark soul raven which is in the middle of the beast faction spat out a mouthful of blood and it became extremely furious.
It closed its eyes again and an even larger eye appeared in the sky above Sam.
Sam's face turned pale and he couldn't help but feel despair, the raven is stronger than he thought and he is not strong enough to make another attack on the eye, so there is only one thing he can do and that is to find a way to escape.
He took a deep breath and sat down cross-legged. He endured the pain and made sure that he doesn't lose concentration. Since, he doesn't have any use for the transference scroll at the present situation, he only has one way for this.
He doesn't want to use this, but it seemed like he doesn't have any other way out of this situation.
His spiritual sense entered his spiritual core. There is a small crack in the transparent core, but the spiritual energy is not leaking out of it and he can see that it is healing slowly, it would take months to heal at this pace, but at least, he still has a way out of that predicament.
Now, his spiritual sense entered the dark element within his core and he could. The bloodline of the shadow mouse activated as he activated the bloodline technique.
The surroundings are completely filled with dark elemental energy as a huge shadow formed under him.
The raven eye which was about to attack looked at Sam in confusion. Before the raven could recover, the shadow's swallowed Sam and he disappeared from the spot.
Sam felt his whole world turn dark and every where he could see, there are only shadows present. This is the shadow world, he used the bloodline technique, the shadow world transference.
He didn't stay idle and the dark elemental energy started moving violently, all the shadows wanted to attack Sam who is an extremely foreign entity.
But he didn't care about that only focused on moving. The shadow element made him move like a flash as he moved from hundreds of kilometres in a second.
