Demon Slaying System - Chapter 95

Few seconds later.

” It’s not good! My mana levels are dropping down at an alarming rate!

Curse this damn test track to begin with. If not for it, the time for my way of strength would not be limited to a short interval, and I wouldn’t necessarily had to terminate it’s use suddenly! ”

Mark cursed internally, he was also angry on levi, who was taking time recuperating, still he couldn’t help but blame him for showing off his powers earlier.

Mark had to forcefully terminate his use in the way of strength, if not, he would surely had entered the state of mana deficit by now, and there would be no free hand available at that time to help him recuperate.

He started circulating his boundless impetus body, without a care, running in the direction opposite to the party of three where Levi was recuperating.

Before he could deploy this retreat strategy of his, he had taunted the puppets to a level where all their focus would necessarily be drawn towards him. Even the case where he necessarily had to run away from them for time being.

Mark had managed to sever off their legs at hair breath, by risking his life earlier. Though the puppets would naturally be healed at an alarming rate, mark reasoned that he would get enough time, before he may be able to create a large distance between them.
for visiting.

After his use in the way of strength was stopped, mark started to feel his body getting heavier. All of a sudden large loads of gravity started to impose on him, ” Damn this test track! Why does it had to increase the difficulty right now? ” Mark cursed internally with enraged eyes.

The sudden change which was brought on the test track had once again prevailed over it again, but this time it started affecting marks performance by a large margin.

The flexibility with which mark was able to match the puppet before was no more. And under the advantage from surroundings, which were biased towards them, which imposed little or no additional weight on their bodies. The puppets would be able to caught with him in a matter of seconds to begin with.

” The hell with this unfairness! Didn’t this test track made them a bit more over powered? And what’s with this terrifying healing speed? ” Mark cursed internally, he turned back abruptly when a lingering sense of danger was hinting his brains.

The healing powers of the puppet had increased sharply which made its lost limb reattach within a second, severely affecting his escape plan.

A spear head which was giving dangerous vibes was closing to his head, present few feet away, that could kill him in a clean strike if underestimated.

Mark was startled, so were the spectators viewing the scenes from outside, seated in the flying ship above.

The sudden changes this time had not just increased the regenerative speed alone, but also increased the terrifying speed with which they were closing to mark.

Mark had to face them with all his might, despite the present circumstances he was facing to begin with.

Unless he had a death wish, he could continue running like a retard, much before the long spears in the puppets arm which would pierce the spear heads out his little head by then.

Clang!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

When the first strike of the puppet was blocked, Mark hands trembled under the impact, his blades had almost slipped out his hands by the blood and sweat underneath, which accumulated within his little grasp, while sparring against these puppets earlier.

The puppet didn’t waste it’s time, as it had hasty turned towards its left, slightly, with the spear held in its left arm, stretched, wanted to strike the little head of mark as if it was a billiards ball to begin with.

With our mercy the puppets had followed its proceeding attack with consecutive strikes, with multiple afterimages and feints left behind in its course.

One after the other, and each were launched with the aim of piercing it out through the brains of mark.

With the experience from his old life, discerning the original ones from the fakesl was not a challenge to mark, Though the two blows which could not be dodged were parried, while the last strike was devastating, which almost made the marks body to judder under its might, and thrown him meters away in a snap.

Though mark managed to fend off it’s blows, and used its kinetic energy to increase the net distance between them. The other puppet didn’t give enough freedom for mark to do so.

Shortly following the three strikes, the other puppet present behind it has jumped meters above the ground, directly above its fellow puppet before landing on top it’s shoulders and dashing towards mark the next second.

Dash!

As if they had imitated the moves, mark made on their fellow puppets before, the other spear bearing puppet had closed up to him, abruptly, shortening the distance he strategically had made earlier.

Boom!

Mark had yet to land on the floor, but the puppet above had not given sufficient time to let him guard well against its incoming blow.

Crash!

Like a baton which would be swung at high speed, above ones head with their chests wide open. The puppet used the spear as one, before making an abrupt roll, crashing the little figure of mark to the floor below, while its body was still present in air above him.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

luckily mark managed to land on the floor, with his feet wide open, before bringing up his guard to parry up the blows, that was going to incur on him shortly.

Immediately following it’s attack the puppet landed on the floor, directly above him, and started launching over a series of attacks, one after the other, which had been thrown over marks body with intent of killing him.

As if each of it’s attack were alive, the long spear made various serpentine courses, like a deadly viper which makes wavy movements before attacking it’s prey.

With a short figure, when mark was parrying against them, he lost his balance and fell flat over the floor, flatly.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

Though mark had fallen down to floor, he hasn’t given up his guard to begin with.

He continued parrying against these unpredictable blows, with the little blades of his, limiting his zone of defense to his core areas, as it would necessarily decrease his area of protection, with increased feasibility.

Few seconds later.

To get out of these barrage of attacks, all I f a sudden mark crouched his body to that of a ball, and used his legs as a compressed spring and hitted hard against the puppets legs, before using that force of thrust to exit out the attack range, preserving his life.

Mark slided behind his back and reached few meters away from the puppet, but unfortunately was found few meters away from the green line which could not be crossed, the line which spectated the division four from division three, I.e, he reached the other end of the third division!

Several injuries were casted over his body by this time, mostly over the extremities of his body, at regions of arms and feet, which were easily caught in the wavy course of the spear earlier.

Though mark had failed at parring against it’s blows throughly, which even resulted in several shallow cuts over his body, with profuse bleeding all over. He hadn’t necessarily bothered with it to begin with.

The places where his body was injured were showing signs of healing, with a smoky gas liberated from the corners of these wounds. The bleeding which made him lose blood before had halted as of later, when he supplied mana to them, as it was essential.

Though he managed to get away from those attack earlier, he was present not far away from it and was going to be crushed by them shortly.

Despite the efforts to fill his core completely, his boundless technique was able to draw out enough mana, while it was copetiting with a scavenger like array below.

His mana levels had not yet reached an appreciable level, at most had been filled with one-tenth of his core capacity, which was not enough considering the big picture where mark had to continue his fights against them.

Had he forcefully stopped this recovery process, to fight against them, he may seriously develop some hidden injuries, later, though may be brought down by the puppet, shortly following it.

Right when he was lost in his thoughts, the puppets before him were not present, completely disappeared from his line of sight.

These puppets were not present on floor to begin with, as they decided to finish this cat chase by killing mark with their finishing moves.

” This does not feel good! ” Mark bellowed internally with a troubled face. The mighty ones that were bent on killing him, wouldn’t give up their chase, much less disappear abruptly from the stage.

He felt that some thing major was going to take place and it was not a good thing to begin with, at least for him.

Both the puppets had jumped high, high enough to appear a size of grape to mark, who discovered their presence shortly.

But all a sudden, a golden brown light encapsulated their metallic bodies, they started to shine bright with each second goes by, as if they were twin suns that were flying on the sky to begin with.

” Just how in the world did these puppets manage to fly? ” Mark was startled, he knew that no normal figures could fly to begin with.

Only the cultivators at aura king realm may necessarily learn to fly, once they condense their King’s seal, which could not be accomplished by all.

What ever may be the cause, Mark knew that this new development was good in the least to begin with.

Locking their trajectory to mark, with the long spears held in their arms tightly. These puppets started descending towards him at high speed.

Though the gravity was not acting on then unfairly, their own body weight was good enough to let them desend at a high speed, but coupled with this flying quirk, the momentum with which they were going to clash mark was deadly without a doubt.

They held their spears vertically, pointing towards the marks head, sightly crouching their backs in a C shape, before they were about to hit mark.

The spears also started emitting a dense golden brown aura, which started to become brighter with each second goes by. These terrifying waves of mana had started giving cold shivers to mark.

Had they struck mark at that terrifying speed, it wouldn’t necessarily be a doubt that mark will be facing his doom by then!

” Just when are you planning to come… Levi!? ” Mark bellowed loudly, with an aggrieved eyes.

Had levi came any late from now, it would be his turn to become late mark by then.

The spear heads had almost reached close to him, a meter above his little figure which was still seated above the floor.

Mark put his blades above his head in a defensive formation, abruptly closed his eyes under that sudden blinding brightness, which illuminated his eyes. Partly was also the reason where he did not want to look at his own doom.

Boom! Boom!

The puppets had finally descended down, and the test track as a whole had trembled violently.

Few seconds later.

” Ah! Nothing had happened huh! ” Mark exclaimed internally.

When he slowly opened his eyes, he was able to spot a blur figure that had a slender tail at its back, three glows were spotted on top it’s head which were glowing red along with a long and slender tail. This figure had caught the spear heads with just it’s slender fingers.

Mark wondered who may be this savior of his, but all of a sudden, a realization struck his mind, which startled him thoroughly.

Other than him, and the other five tester, no outer powers may be able to break open the barriers and enter the third division of test track, and saving him later.

And looking at the figure, the three glows over it’s head seems to originate from a sharp horn shaped structure, along with the tail which sparked a sense of deja vu in him.

Standing at front the light source, her features were not marked distinct, but mark was able to guess her identity.

She had left behind a huge shadow, which was casted over several meters behind him, while standing at front the light source.

The light slowly started to dim, until mark was able to spot that this blurry figure in fluttering robes was a women, the one he cursed earlier!

” Is it fun rescuing people, when death is hair breath to them? ” Mark cursed openly.

” Can’t you say some thing good, when you see your savior? ” Levi answers back, curving her brows before him, which caused the hair on mark stand in anger.

Since cursing was not gonna help him in the least, he decided to directly plunder the mana essence from the puppets, and elevate his loss in mana while at it.

Like a hungry wolf which starved for a week to go, mark savagely torn off the chest plates, and started devouring the essence from the puppets at once.

Doesn’t know the reason weather his mana levels were low at that time, or was it some other factor, Mark didn’t mutter a word from his mouth, while sucking mana savagely, even the euphoric state was not exhibited out as before.

If it was before, Levi might had been at a disadvantageous position, considering the advantage these puppets gained as of now. But after activating her bloodline powers she had boosted her powers, which made her able to catch these enhanced puppets easily.

Though they became intelligent, when the obstacle was not visible, how could these puppets win against these duo.

Followed by slicing off the limbs, mark devoured the small cores to the last drop, until not even a speck was left for him to spare.

He was worried that he may not be able to cross level 50 after savouring the cores, but by some good grace, at hair breath he upgraded his cultivation realm, by exceeding the amount of experience needed to cross the barrier of level fifty, stepping on the realm of high class aura grand master.

” Ding! host levels up! ”

” Ding! Host had broken through level 50, host could choose an advancement plan before the boost up pack kicks in! “
