Reborn To Become A Heavenly Serpent - Chapter 42

“Host. Although the current method will allow the host body to be unaffected by the severe corrosion impact of the crystalline soil… but that doesn’t mean the host temperament might remain the same”

“This?… what do you mean by that?”

Hiro inquired back in concern with the system’s sudden warning.

Knew it!… this system is a fraud!.

“The nature of this corroded energy is evil emotions and such host temperament or even attitude might transform accordingly to the new energy essence.”

“But host doesn’t need to worry… the stronger host becomes… the lesser this effect can cause any changes to host mind. ”

The system continued and finally dropped off its sentence with the least supporting point. How is that even a “DONT WORRY”…

Of course, he needed to be worried about that!…

just how fast can he become stronger?…

well… it is quite fast but not too fast either.

*sigh*

“Anyway system explain to me the function of the new heavenly treasure. How useful is it?”

Hiro raised a question as he slithered away to the nearest chunk of large crystalline soil. Not giving a glimpse at the prior conversations anymore…

future problems will be solved by his future self.

“Ding… Material augmenting function, Material doubling function, and hidden space function.”

“Materials augmenting function will allow the host to increase the amount of energy within the targetted material”

“Material doubling function(Replicating), Will allow the host to recreate the same material and replicate it. It will be the same one without any other defect”

“Space function(Storage), Will allow the host to store a large amount of item, material, or anything inside the furnace space. The amount of space available is 100km in diameter”

“That’s extremely cheating!… I mean yes!. Great!”

Hiro screamed in excitement after listening to all of that explanations.

*cough* *cough*…

maybe?…

Added on with one more thing which is he could do both of the first features without having any issues. Isn’t that cheating!…

Augmenting certain object energy twice and then replicating it for his use. A total buzz off among buzz off!. Incredibly useful!…

“System… can I use this on the crystalline soil? is it feasible?”

He hastily asked while eyeing the wall with eagerness. Saliva drooped low from the corner of his mouth with the flame on his tail burning even more. Excitement!… that’s a lot of points if he could do that!.

“Yes, host… ”

“Great!!!”

Then…

*munch!* *munch!* *munch!*

Without even a second thought spared behind.

Hiro plunged forward with his head on first and crashed in again the wall with his mouth wide open. Breaking through the bodily crystal as he munched away into his mouth.

Also… at the same time… he augmented the energy inside his body and replicated it inside. And all it took was with just a thought of his. Extremely handy!…

” Here we go! grinding time!”

Hiro yelled with enthusiasm as the perspective slowly zoomed out from his back and directly followed along the large hole in the middle. Crammed with darkness seconds later…

17 days later…

Location… Barren land,

*Flap!* *Flap!* *Flap!*

*Gushes!!!*

“The signal died off here… ”

Abruptly…

up above the sky, a giant of light 100 meters in height with a pair of large white wings revealed himself as dazzling light circulated all around the area.

His body halted above the air with his two glowing eyes staring below in complication.

Gushes of thick white energy seeped out of his mouth with his wings continuously fluttering behind…

The giant asked in puzzlement as he glimpsed over the devastated land filled with trees and jagged earth.

“… ”

“A battle between two emperor-level monsters?…. interesting… ”

He muttered yet again after feeling the remaining energy on this land. But… it seemed he doesn’t care about it…

well of course he wouldn’t take a note on it…

he is after all a demi ancient expert. A shapeshifter class magician of the human continent. One of the 10 divines!. Mildred!…

*Boom!*

*Crashes!*

He plummeted down onto the ground as the earth shook tremendously under the impact. Dust was riled up from it and seconds later it was blown away with a wave of a large hand…

“The signal ended here… but there’s nothing. ”

“I had already scanned the whole area with my sense but there is a nonentity. No ashes or even the tiniest bit of energy left from the prince’s body?”

“…”

He pondered for a moment… and then.

“… Below… ”

“There’s something under the ground”

He muttered while peeking down. The large hole from before had already been crammed with thick and large vines. Naturally, he mistook it as the ground itself even though he had scouted the whole area with his senses.

His intuition was telling him that he could find the answer below…

“very well then… ”

“Burst!”

*BOOM!*

After determining his thoughts…

he then rapidly slammed down his fist into the ground.

The earth caved in under the result but a sight of miracle happened next!…

*BOOM!*

*CRASHED!!!*

The earth below evaporated out of thin air as a large hole materialized itself seconds later.

One could even notice that around his fist… revolved there was a weird pattern with a white halo on it…

it should be a skill!… similar to earth digging one or such.

Someplace deep within the earth. Situated inside a large cavern with jagged holes all around the place.

Slumped there a large 217 meters long snake with his eyes closed peacefully. The breathing was there as the flaming corroded energy on its tail pulsated from time to time.

Suddenly…

*Shakes!* *Shakes!*

*Debris!* *Debris!*

The ceiling above throbbed slightly with a touch of tremor as some of the small rubble fell over from the top.

“Hmmm??… what’s this?. Earthquake?”

This without a doubt awakened Hiro from his deep slumber as he yawned with his mouth wide open seconds later.

Gazing up to the ceiling with alert as he protruded up his large upper body in readiness.

Though his mind wasn’t in the best shape since he just woke up.

“Something is coming?”

He whispered in a low voice…

he could sense it…

something is digging or crashing down from above.

“Ding!… Alert! Host, please evacuate as fast as you could. A demi Ancient existence is coming down towards the host location!”

Out of the blue…

the system voice roared inside his mind in urgency as his eyes broadened in horror moments later after hearing it.

“T-this!”

“What!!!”

He shouted…

Then without even a single thought over it. He began to slither away at a terrifying speed along the large hole that he had created days before.

Luckily he had already created many pathways inside this large cavern for himself to navigate around. Searching for the remainder of the large chunk.

And now it comes in handy. But surely his heart was too preoccupied with worries and he won’t be able to think of anything else at this moment other than escaping.

A demi Ancient existence is coming here!…

Something that he can’t deal with!…

Escape!…

“System what the hell is happening here!?”

He asked while slithering away…

His eyes filled with anxiety as he went deeper and deeper into the hole. The tremor from before was still there but now it was lesser since he had already galloped far away…

but he still kept on running away without a second glance back.

“Ding… a demi ancient existence has appeared here. It seems to be searching for something. It is advised for the host to run as far away as possible.”

“This!… Okey!”

“I will ask questions later… for now run!”

having said that…

he then continued slinking away into the many pathways. Holes after holes as he went deeper into the earth’s crust.

He just remembered something at this moment.

‘Maybe I can use that weird large hole that I found yesterday?’

‘Great!… that should be my escape route!’

He thought to himself with a serious complexion.

Yesterday… as he was bombing around the area to create numerous holes for himself. Suddenly a large 1 kilometers slopes path emerged from one of his lucky bombings.

He couldn’t see the end of it since it was extremely long and thus he tried venturing in.

But even after hours of full-speed traveling… he still couldn’t touch the end of this path as if it was an endless road.

And now this weird path might be his key way of escaping from here!. No matter what the danger is…

Meanwhile…

Up above…

*Halted!*

Mildred thwarted in movement abruptly as his eyes peeked downwards with a frown. He sensed something just now…

“Something just moved… it seems to be running away!”

*BOOM!*

Then…

as he was growling that…

he immediately blasted his fist downward faster and faster and developed an even larger hole for him to go below.

“I won’t let you escape!”

*BOOM!*

*BOOM!*

*trembles* *trembles*

He shouted as in the next moment he leaped downward and continued with the same method vigorously.

But this time… the tremor becomes even more terrifying. Each punch carried the weight of a mountain behind his fist… as the earth below sunken in and vanished out of thin air. Horrible!…

To be continued….
