Heavenly Dao Child

Chapter 468 - Making pact with Spirit Beast (Part-2)

With the warcry, Ryuu appeared directly in front of the Void Eater as he unleashed one of his strongest techniques against it, but he did not directly attack it, instead, he chose to attack the ground causing it to explode as the creature gave another of its guttural roar, but this time it was akin to great pain.

'If you cannot touch it then, turn surroundings against it, it might not work as good as directly attacking but for a void eater it is enough.'

Suddenly the creature's hand morphed into a whip-like weapon as it tried to catch Ryuu using it but he nimbly dodged them without much problem.

Ryuu pulled out his flask as the creature was bathed in a healthy dose of alcoholic beverage and as it got near to him Ryuu breath out a small ball of fire that hit the creature and lit the alcohol on it aflame.

'Nether Fire Wine', as its name suggests is a wine with not only very high alcohol but the various spices and herbs added to it makes it extremely spicy to the point that even if it is extremely savoury it can literally peel the skin, a particular brand that was loved by people with not only high tolerance for alcohol but also high poison tolerance.

The 'Nether Fire Wine', true to its name and effect, upon coming into contact turned the part of the creature red and upon being lit with fire the creature had the same experience as a badly burned person would do if they were covered with the hottest chilli sauce.

The creature thrashed and screamed not to mention it ran around rolled on the ground trying to douse the flames but whenever it neared any surface whether it be ground or ceiling Ryuu would attack and cause the surface to explode injuring it.

As Ryuu was busy fighting the Void Eater, others were busy trying to put distance between them and the fighters as Ryuu's way of fighting was proving to be causing too much collateral damage.

Su-Min frowned as she complained out loud, "What kind of fighting style is this!"

"Apparently the one that works, and till now he is doing fine."

As Zywia replied to Su-Min, True-Spear could not help but ask out loud, "How dangerous is a Void Eater?"

"Well, a few decades back a platoon of Dao Father attacked a Void eater of the same level as them and although they had won they did not come completely unscathed."

Hearing Zywia's answer True-Spear could not help but gulp as watched Ryuu thrashing the beast easily, while Frozen Ocean could not help but exclaim out loud, "Even if we are of the same level, in reality, we are a world apart."

Ryuu meanwhile dodged and weaved through numerous attacks that the creature was sending towards his direction as he slowly lured it towards the centre of the room, and as soon as they were at the centre Ryuu snapped his finger as multiple arrays suddenly shown which were drawn courtesy of the many talismans he had used to create them.

A rather intense gravitational field erupted around the creature pressing it down on the floor, with enough strength to not only immobilize it but it managed to create a crater around it.

Frost Flames gave an appreciative nod as she spoke, "That is really nice strategy using the ceiling as a base for the Array and then making the creature immobilize to the point it would not be able to move at all."Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%!d(string=11448539305377005)/making-pact-with-spirit-beast-(part-2)_%!d(string=51510985990655343) for visiting.

Frozen Ocean nodded in agreement as she spoke, "Yes it is not to mention because the creature is being pressed down on the ground there is little to no chance for it to disrupt the arrays."

Ryuu meanwhile did not waste any time he knew that he will have to win the fight and then show his dominance he had no illusion of suddenly having as cordial of relation as his aunt had with his mother, but he knew that over time he might and till then he would have to show the Void Eater that he was the boss.

It may be that KI based attacks may not be as useful but nothing was said about soul-based attacks as such he attacked the soul of the creature while discreetly bombarding him with the presence of his ever-present and ever helpful divine body.

And less than a minute later the beast had completely submitted to Ryuu, seeing that True-Spear was about to speak only to be stopped a loud gasp drawing their attention.

"Is that void eater?"

True-Spear gave a nod as he replied to Severing Saber, "Yes older brother it is."

Severing Saber shook his head as he spoke with a sigh, "This younger brother is amazing to single-handedly take down the beast it is amazing but should he not try to kill him."

True-Spear replied with a grunt, "He is trying to make the beast his spirit beast."

"I see."

Zywia watched as Ryuu cut his palm as blood flowed through, he then rose his hand over what seemed to be the Void Eater's mouth with the intent to drop a few drops of blood for it to ingest before completing the pact, in this case, a master-slave pact with Ryuu being the master, when all of sudden Zywia suddenly shouted out, "Brother Ryuu stop!!!!!!"

Her sudden shout seemed to startle others while she watched helplessly the drops of blood fell on the creature's mouth before it began to convulse badly even with the intense gravity locking it down its body was shaking like grass under a terrible storm, and then a certain sound came to everyone's ears.

~pbrrrt~

With that, the creature seemed to deflate completely as it melted making Ryuu take a few steps back as he watched it with wide eyes as Zywia shouted from the side, "You idiot! Did you forget how poisonous your blood is? From the numerous attempts at trying to increase your poison resistance, and not to mention the fact that poison from the second floor is still lingering in your blood did you think that the creature could survive."

Ryuu was taken aback at that in the excitement of getting a spirit beast companion he had forgotten the fact how dangerous his blood was since young he had always wanted a spirit beast companion his first chance came from the Hydra when he was only seven but because of his teammates it was thwarted and now because of his own blood it was thwarted, and then the reality seemed to settle, he will never be able to form a pact until and unless he would find some beast that can withstand the poison in his blood, and he doubted it would be easy as with time it would be toxic enough that there may be none.

A very devastated Ryuu collapsed on his knees as Frost flames made her way towards his side before hugging him from behind.

Ryuu looked at the corpse as he spoke with disbelief, "I failed."

Frost Flames hugged him tighter as she spoke, "There there, it is alright, I know you would one day succeed."

"Frost Flames is right brother Ryuu, do not worry you will surely find Spirit Beast to form companionship."

It took them some time but within the next couple of hours the rest of the cultivators of the Manushya Realm had gathered in the room all of them finally free of their hibernated state were relishing in the KI that was now free from the binding.

Devaraj entered the room with the help of some of his fellow cultivators who laid him on the ground, as during one of the previous challenges he was injured as such he was put into hibernation to prevent him from experiencing the pain, but now since they all were in an area where their KI could be finally unleashed, as such, they woke him up.

A couple of pills directly from his space ring quickly did its job as he looked healthy as before, Devaraj looked around as he watched his comrades laughing and chatting with a smile on their faces, his eyes then fell on a certain figure who was sitting on the ground with a dejected look on his face, as such Devaraj could not help but ask out loud, "Why is Ryuu moping in a corner like that?"

One of his fellow companions snorted as he spoke, "Oh him, apparently, this room had a beast that they had to defeat, Ryuu wanted it as his Spirit Beast companion but he messed up and the beast died and now he is brooding and moping."

Devaraj snorted as he spoke, "I do not know if I should feel pity or I should laugh at his antics."

"Meh, I laughed at aloud at him.", was the immediate reply of the speaker causing Devaraj to shake his head as a small smile appeared on his lips.

Frost Flames brow twitched as she watched Ryuu moping in a corner the first few minutes she felt his sorrow and was very understanding and supportive of him but as time passed by her understanding and supporting nature devolved into that of annoyance.

'I understand that he failed, I sympathize with his feeling of sadness but this is ridiculous treating it as if it was the end of creation itself.'

Her feelings were shared by the rest as Zywia could no longer tolerate it any longer as such she kneeled in front of him as she spoke, "Ryuu if I remember you were harping about the fact that you would conquer the fifteenth floor, so stop moping and stand up there is less than half a year left and there is no time for you to mope, or do you wish to stay in their shadows forever."

That seemed to jolt Ryuu awake as he stood up and spoke, "You are right, we do not have much time, we have to move."

He tried to move to the next room only to be stopped by Severing Saber who placed a hand on his shoulder as he spoke, "Yes yes, we will after we eat something."

A few hours later the group properly fed without any pangs of hunger and thirst moved to the new area, as they stepped inside they were hit by a large mass of chaotic aura not to mention the sight in front of them made them stop on their tracks as they watched the scene with wide eyes.
