Corrupt Creations

Seth left in the morning after an embarrassing moment between him and Lilian. He still could not believe this absurd situation that has been happening.

He dove into the Ygnolia forest and fought Mana Perception realm beasts until night. Although he didn't find any beast stronger than the first ones he fought with, his understandings about mana and it's uses were getting better and more solid.

After sometime daydreaming, Lilian invited Caizhi for a short ramble and they both left too.

Like this, an entire week has passed. With Seth disappearing in the mornings for training purposes and the iconic situation that would always happen at night.

Today though, it would be a different day.

The city was crowded with people and very bustling. At every moment the city gates would open to accommodate an important sect or a big family.

After Seth left his room in the morning, he couldn't comprehend how the heel so many people could fit inside a city, to top it off, at least ninety percent of them were young woman. He was already being the greatest warrior, holding his impulses and urges all these nights. If he stayed in a city like this, he wouldn't handle the pressure and could end up courting some ladies, so he chose to leave for some more training.

Lilian and Caizhi planned to follow him this time and see what he was doing all this time, but they easily lost him in the crowd of people. They went with their second option; witness the recruitment.

The Glazed Lake would finally start their recruitment today, that is why so many people were clustering in the city. The event would be happening at the center of the city, where an enormous stadium for battles existed.

Even though the rules for the recruitment hadn't been said, people already expected some battles and similar stuff.

Lilian had already bought three tickets to enter the event as an observer. She distributed them yesterday, so Seth and Caizhi had one on them. After entering the place together with Caizhi, they took their destined seat and waited for the major announcements.

While the preparations for the event were being held, Seth was thousands of kilometers away from the city. This is actually the farthest he has been from the city. He knew the event would take a lot of time and he was not so interested in it, so he went deeper inside the Ygnolia forest.

'Maybe today I will be able to find a middle-stage beast.'

Seth was hoping to find a stronger opponent and entered deep inside the forest, but he failed to notice that not a single beast was present in the area he was right now.

"Isn't it too silent here Lexi?"

"I don't feel anything different. Is there a problem?"

Seth felt that something wasn't right, he immediately used his shadow walk and vanished from the place he was, appearing hundred meters away.

Whoosh!

A huge black shadow passed through the place he was standing a second before.

Boom!

The entire area shook, trees were uprooted and the terrain was thrown into the air. While this mess was spreading everywhere around, the shadowy figure didn't stop, it turned towards the place Seth had appeared and charged in.

Seth activated his shadow walk and started his illusory running. He used his full speed to retreat, but he could not shake the enemy off. On the contrary, the shadowy figure was approaching at a fast speed.

"Damn!"

Darkness rose from the ground, covering his retreating path. The area of this dark fog was so wide that someone could easily lose himself inside it.

Out of nowhere a fierce wind started blowing the fog away. A windstorm surged with power, cutting Seth shadows away and exposing his retreating figure.

The beast charged head on to collide with the human that invaded its territory.

Seth saw the high-speed beast coming and knew it would be futile trying to escape. He accumulated all the mana he could within these few seconds and turned it into a shield of dark element.

The collision between both parties was so strong that a shockwave destroyed the already beyond repair forest even more.

Boom!

Seth was sent flying and collided with the trunks of trees three hundred meters behind him, while the beast was forced to an abrupt stop, feeling numb on its claws. It was sure that the human was a Mana Perception initial-stage realm cultivator, so how did he damage its claws?

"Cough! Cough!"

Seth stood up alarmed, if his body wasn't so strong and resistant, he would have died there. There was a bit of blood on his lips and he felt the pain of the impact, but the damage on him was limited to this. He looked up and finally saw what type of beast he was facing.

Three hundred meters away from him, there was a black panther. Its length spanning for almost ten meters. The black hair on its body was so shinny that it could be described as elegant. Its big white eyes were locked on Seth and observing him cautiously.

"It's the Blackwind Panther! It is known as the Ghost of the Jungle. You won't be able to escape from this beast, it is well versed on speed hunting." Lexi alerted Seth.

"How do you have so much knowledge regarding these beasts... Sigh, guess it will be a tough fight. Is it a middle-stage beast?" Seth asked.

"By the intensity of the fluctuations after its first attack, it has already reached the Mana Perception late-stage realm. You are in deep trouble!"

"Why are you talking like I am the only one in deep trouble! A late-stage beast huh?!" Seth smiled and looked at the bright side of the situation. He was surprised by the fierce enemy attack, but was able to defend against it with only some minor losses.

"Alright! If we can't escape, then we are going to fight!"

Seth intensified the darkness around himself and started to slowly approach his enemy.

The Blackwind Panther knew it was facing an abnormal opponent and started to get serious too.

The wind element around it actively rose, making cutting noises with its sharpness.
