Chapter 39: Weird Buzz

"F*cking pathetic, the contained amount cant even reach the amount of a little child. After all they are low level demons, can't expect too much from them. Likely that the higher leveled ones would have the privilege."

Puti

As his foot stepped on the head of an ugly creature, black blood splattered all over. The creature was black in color with tumors all over its body. The creature had four legs and a tail with a pointy end. There was no fur, only skin that was ugly. The head had nothing but a large mouth, filled with razor sharp teeth.

On the ground there were also several creatures like this all showing a cuts.

The face also showed wrinkles and black veins all over it. Just the appearance alone could haunt small children into nightmares.

If not for the demon essence he wouldn't have bothered with these demons at all, instead just pretending to be an undead and doing nothing would do. He would blend in perfectly with these stupid creatures. With the aura he is exuding, he would be the predator and beasts would avoid him instinctively.

With the natural deathly aura he is exuding and with slight changes he was now no different from an undead. These creatures would only sense auras anyway, the outer appearance was unnecessary.

He had extracted all the aura within him and now he would appear to be dead with some fluctuations, similar to an undead. This was extremely dangerous, fortunately he could survive on lifeforce stored within his energy and be similar to an undead or a demon.

But this would have a time limit, once he exceeds it his body would really be no different from an undead and forever being unable to change back to the living.

In that case he would have no chance but to turn into a ghost completely, though it would be of the weaker type. Turning into a ghost, having a physical body would result in a stronger power. Just turning into from a soul would make him almost no different from a vengeful spirit.

And for now soul possessing was dangerous, there is a big chance that it will fail and even if it succeeded his strength falling drastically was inevitable.

But with his manipulation the time limit was pushed to the limit for the present situation, two weeks were enough and before it ends he would leave the gorge anyways.

After going in slightly deeper he encountered these low-level demons.

They were out there hunting each other and the worms. The area in the gorge was really dangerous. From the monsters here, the worms were at the bottom of the food chain food to any demon out here.

From the plantation here these grasses, pits, trees and any other thing here is terrifying. Things which could survive in this environment is definitely not simple at all, he couldn't trust anything here. Fortunately his perception was the perfect guide in this sh*thole.

The monsters here didn't exceed the first tier which was to his advantage. The higher tier was concluded to be in a deeper area. The strongest creatures he had seen for now was the 'strangling tree', 'screech bird', 'boulder demon' and a few others. They were all at the limit break stage.

He couldn't beat any of them at all, but with the guide he was fortunate enough to not encounter them. One time he wanted to try his strength with the strangling tree and the result was that he escaped miserably.

If not for his strong power, being able to exceed stages to fight he wouldn't have survived that at all. Fighting was only fighting after all, defeating or killing it is impossible.

The tree had branches that could extend to reach for their preys, and the life absorbing power of it was astonishing. More importantly it also had some certain hallucination abilities, though it wasn't effective on him due to his strong soul power. Other beasts and demons would unknowingly enter the tree's range placing itself on a plate to serve the tree with their lives.

Still both of them suffered losses, with his power he wasn't afraid of ordinary limit break monsters at all. Instead of him being the prey, they might become the prey themself. But these monsters surviving in this terrible environment was destined to not be normal.

The strangling tree also seemed to be close to breaking through to the second stage, so his power could be said to be close to the peak of the first tier.

He guessed that the battle between the tree and him severely injured both of them, its likely that the tree has laid low to devour weaker beasts. From the battle he hadn't recovered his full strength even until now so the choice was also similar to the tree.

The tree had spirituality and was intelligent, in the end they didn't want to be taken advantage by the other top level predators.

Sighing he looked at his own status:

Race: Human(Cylius)

Tier: 1(Maturity)

Strength: 1.1

Speed: 1.3

Agility: ??(Unknown)

Soul: 9.9

Mana: 1.8

Lifeforce: 0.9

Active skills: [Yin Barrier lv.1] [Yin Tentacle lv.2] [Life Absorb lv.3] [Mind manipulation lv.1]

Passive skills: [Yin manipulation lv.3] [Living detection lv.1]

Mana had increased by 0.1 and the [Yin Tentacle] had been upgraded by one level. Mana was an important factor. It defined the quantity, and ascertaining it precisely was impossible, so he could only crudely depend on the skills section.

The more advanced the level is, the more amount and the more excellent the quality is and every four levels there would be a qualitative change.

As he was looking at the stats panel, a bundle of grass combining to make a sharp end crept up his feet.

"Scram" as soon as it ended, a yin tentacle slyly and sharply generated from his shoe, strangling the bundle of grass. In front of the condensed energy, the grass was nothing at all.

It shriveled into a strap and with a slight blow it disintegrated. As if warned the other grasses and insects backed out from him.

Sometimes there were creatures with no intelligence, courting death by offending a powerful existence. Even with his powerful aura, it wouldn't work on unintelligent beings so he had no choice but to intimidate them by showing absolute strength!

As a cool breeze went by his face, he closed his eyes. As soon as his eyes shut off, his spiritual perception went out covering the nearby place. As sudden as it came out it also shrank back into his body. After it shrank back his face showed sudden seriousness.

With his hearing he sensed a silent buzz coming from the inside of the valley he was in. The Gorge of Death stretched out far, several mountain ranges included in it was inevitable. Now in the origin of it all, The Gorge of Death, he didn't know what existence lurked inside.

The sound coming from afar was actually terrifying in itself, because that way was the border separating the second tier existences from the first tier existences!
