I Can Give Talent

Chapter 147 – Chaos

"Makai Continent... Black Hand Cult.... Death Qi Absorption Scripture....What a bizarre place. The entire continent was under the control of the Black Hand Cult. They are cultivating some kind of energy related to death over there." Caterina processed the information she collected from the dark-robed man.

"Although their continent is very chaotic, the array and formation knowledge over there is very advanced. Unfortunately, this guy didn't know how to destroy his master's formation. He didn't even know his master's true purpose for coming here. What a useless guy!"

The result frustrated her. There were too many non-relevant memories getting mixed up during the soul search.

However, what terrified her was that the hunched old man was only a normal member of the Black Hand Cult and this dark-robed man was just a slave. They didn't have that many people on their continent due to constant chaos, but the cultivators there were very strong.

Caterina used her spiritual touch and took a space ring from the dark-robed man's neck and destroyed the dead body by using spiritual pressure.

Spiritual touch was another ability of the spiritual sense that a cultivator could unlock after reaching a certain threshold. It was basically a telekinetic ability where one could control and manipulate things using the mind.

Caterina unlocked her spiritual touch when she advanced to the Soul Formation realm. Unfortunately, spiritual touch wasn't that useful in battle because it was far too weak and slow compared to what her cultivation level could do. So, she only used it for menial activities.

Suddenly, Caterina felt something. The creepy atmosphere could be felt again. "Are you serious? Has he already awakened? I don't know how to deal with his formation yet!"

Boom!

Caterina rushed to the hunched old again, producing a sonic boom.

"Kikiki. I didn't expect that your demonic beast could do something like that. Thankfully, my formation is so amazing that you couldn't even do anything to kill me." The hunched old man mocked Caterina, who had just arrived.

She frowned as she saw the dark Qi flow into the city again. She felt so irritated because he was the most annoying opponent she had ever faced. He didn't even try to fight her!

"Watch this woman, you are about to see your city be plunged into chaos and you wouldn't be able to do anything about it! My dead soldiers, ARISE!!"

Meanwhile, in the city,

"Attention to everyone in the Holy Cat City. Please get ready and be prepared to engage in a battle. To the Nascent Soul realm experts, the City Lord Caterina Feline had ordered you to protect the people from danger if something happens."

The announcement surprised Leyvi and the others who were in the carriages. Do we have to prepare for battle? What is happening?

"Wasn't the Grand Kitty Nine-Layer Formation so awesome? How did the enemy break in?" Leyvi questioned.

"Uhh.... I'm not sure." Ava felt awkward. She had just bragged about the formation, but it decided to betray her trust suddenly. Why does everything go wrong today?

ROOAAAR!! ROOAAAR!! ROOAAAR!! SCREEEE!! SCREEEE!!

Just as they were wondering about what was going on, they heard multiple loud roars and screeches coming from the same direction. Terrifying auras engulfed the entire city instantly.

Leyvi realized that the commotion was not far from them. He immediately got out of the carriage and flew up to have a better look.

BOOOMMM!!! BOOOMMM!!!

HELP!! RUN!! SAVE ME!!

Buildings were destroyed instantly, and many people died when a few General Level Demonic Beasts and dozens of Commander Level Demonic Beasts appeared out of nowhere.

Their bodies were surrounded by black Qi, and their eyes were red.

"What?? Those are the Demonic Beasts from the museum! How did they come back to life?"

"Shit! We have to run! Scarlet! Dig and pull the carriages away from here! Mr. Bison guard the rear! Go go!" Leyvi summoned them out and ordered them to do the things they had done before. It has become their standard hiding strategy.

"Layla, use Mini Layla to monitor the situation on the surface," Leyvi instructed after he re-entered the carriage.

"Yes, husband!" Layla produced twenty Mini Layla and instructed them to observe the situation above from a safe distance.

Ava was surprised when she saw Scarlet's digging ability and a bunch of Mini Layla flying out of the carriage. She had never seen abilities like this before.

Leyvi felt pity towards the people on the scene being killed by the rampaging Demonic Beasts, but there was nothing he could do against such powerful enemies. Furthermore, his family was more important.

"LUNA!! Show yourself!! How dare you put me into a museum!! I will destroy this stupid city!!"

A huge Demonic Tiger roared while causing destruction everywhere. Each swipe of his claws called forth a tornado that annihilated anything in its path. It was the power he obtained from the awakened bloodline.

Mutilated corpses could be seen scattered after each tornado dissipated. The city center was dyed with blood in such a short amount of time.

Suddenly, a gigantic boulder as big as a hill was thrown and hit the Demonic Tiger from above.

BOOM!

The impact shook the earth, revealing the Demonic Tiger pinned underneath the boulder.

At this moment, five Soul Formation experts appeared and stopped the three General Level Demonic Beasts in their tracks.

At the same time, a General Level Demonic Bald Eagle got frozen and fell to the ground while the last one, a General Level Demonic Anaconda, was cut in half by a huge saber.

They were the strongest subordinates of Caterina Feline who were in charge of the city's safety. This was the reason she didn't enter the city immediately.

The Chief Leader of the Law Enforcement Department, Badang, and other leaders of different departments were there to prevent the worst-case scenario.

Although there were still many people around trying to run away, they had no choice but to ignore them and fight the demonic beasts.

Apart from the five Souls Formation experts stopping the three General Level Demonic Beasts, there were over fifty Nascent Souls experts attacking the dozens of the Commander-level Demonic Beasts.

"Kill them!" Chief Leader Badang ordered as he created another hill-sized boulder as his weapon.

Magnus Goldstone, Vitali Clover, Alar Thorne, and other Nascent Soul experts who attended the Alchemy Conference were relieved that the Law Enforcement Department and others had arrived to deal with the Demonic Beasts.

They had tried their best to protect the people as instructed, so now it was not their problem anymore. They were not the city's citizens, after all.

Outside the city,

The hunched old man had an excited expression seeing the chaos in the city from afar.

"Kikiki, originally I planned to do this during the stupid Alchemy Competition, but that one formation malfunction caused the plan to be delayed until now. What a pity. I could have killed more in a short time if everyone was still in the Grand Stadium."

His slave had investigated the formation before but found no sign of it being forcefully destroyed. So he could only attribute it to be malfunctioning.

Caterina didn't know what to do. This was the first time something like this happened. The city was supposed to be the safest place for people since the Grand Formation protected it. However, if the enemies were inside, where should they run?

She could have never imagined that all the demonic beast skeletons she gathered and put up in the museum for historical display would be resurrected and used against her. Even the Demonic Tiger was resurrected.

There were so many mixed emotions inside her right now. Angry, annoyed, panicked, sad, frustrated and confused. She didn't know which one to respond to first. The Holy Cat City was her pride, after all.

When the chaos started, people naturally started escaping toward the city gates, and since the City Center was the nearest to the East Gate, most of them were trying to escape from there.

"Open up the gate! Let us out!" The people who were trying to escape from the city started to cause chaos at the East Gate.

They even attacked some of the city guards.

"HOW DARE YOU!!"

Caterina entered the city and her peak stage Soul Formation realm aura overwhelmed the crowd, and she exerted her spiritual pressure on the people who caused trouble. As the owner, she and Luna could go in and out of the formation freely, without any obstruction.

"If I see anyone acting violently again, I'll kill you myself!" Caterina was truly furious.

The crowd was terrified by her aura and immediately calmed down. After they calmed down, they finally saw the hunched old man with a creepy giant birdcage outside the city with blood all over the place.

"What? Is that the culprit for this chaos?"

"Oh shit, run! Go to the other gate!"

"Runnnn!"

The crowd immediately turned away and fled towards the North.

Caterina had a headache seeing the situation. It was not that she didn't want to let them leave, it was just that she couldn't. Once they activated the lockdown, they couldn't override it until an envoy of Cloud Continent Protector came and confirmed the threat was gone.

She hoped that her subordinates could kill the all resurrected Demonic Beasts as soon as possible.

However, her hope only lasted a few seconds as she received a message from Chief Leader Badang.

"City Lord, we can't kill them. The black Qi will regenerate them again. What should we do?"
