The Universe is Innately Just - Chapter 310
The young cultivator’s eyes quickly caught on the creature’s attack. His body continued advancing through the air toward the beast’s jaw. A sharp glint appeared on the intelligent creature, that glinted could be assimilated to smirking lips that felt confident on their victory.
“Looks like this beast think he’s the real deal.”, thought Fell as he tightened his grip around Akainmar’s belt before throwing him up. He added a slight forward angle, predicting the creature’s future position at the same time as his hand moved.
Without Akainmhar’s dead weight, Fell found himself free for a split second as his body moved strangely in the air. His trajectory path changed slightly, turning into a wave pattern that easily evaded the creature’s jaw.
The creature’s jaw shut down in an explosive clap. Sadly to it, Fell had easily evaded its attack, and the fierce creature ended up swallowing the air.
As for Fell, his wave-like movement stopped right after he passed next to the beast, and he landed on the beast’s back and lifted his leg. The sole of his feet fell back on the creature’s back, as a sensation of heaviness made the creature’s joint creek. Half a beat after it, his arm moved as he caught the unconscious Akainmhar without any difficulty.
From finding the beast to dominating it into submission, Fell had needed less than a minute to execute those two things. The submission part, in particular, had been executed in one swift motion. As the next moment, Fell directed the creature with light and heavy steps that ordered it around.
At first, the creature tried ignoring his order, and Fell even thought that it was playing with his nerves. But after a few cold harrumph, and dozens of heavy step- that nearly broke the creature’s spine- the towering creature turned docile as it began moving through the city.
From the back of the creature, Fell gained a decent height and was able to see much more of the scenery in the north part of the main district. His jaw lightly dropped as he could see the extent of destruction that arose to the city.
The same scenery that came to his eyes, when he entered the city for the first time, was once again reflected in his pupils. Due to the memory loss induced by the near destruction of his soul, from his point of view, this was the first time he was entering the city.
The unfamiliarity of the view of this city- he felt he’d never seen before- was mixed with the familiarity that arose from his soul. The entire situation caused him to feel strangely out of place, and his silent advance through the no-mans’ land intensified that sensation even more.
All he wanted was to leave this deserted area, and thus he extended his sense in massive range. Fell’s attempt at sensing life form was concluded after a few seconds, as in the distance, he sensed thousands of weak signals grouped in a tight area.
He eyed at the distance, far deep in the city, and roughly judged the position of the citizen before lightly pressing down with his leg on the creature’s back. The sensible beast understood the order coming from its new master and began making its way through the city with steady steps.
The creature even lightened its steps, and made its best in accommodating his master by taking care of his balance. Before long, the towering creature speedily crossed dozens of long street and made its way to the inner layer of the main district.
During the travel, Fell didn’t stop his senses from basking in the silent ambiance of the main district. Massive walls- the size of a small mountain- appeared behind a building that entered Fell’s eyes.
And as though the creature under him felt his intent, it accelerated and before long, he was looking at the massive wall while standing at its base.
He crouched slightly, preparing to jump on the wall, as he wanted to acquire the view of what stood behind those massive walls. But just as his legs were going to quit the floor, the creature under him darted upward as its leg muscles turned into a long and dense spring.
It quickly rose high, and only after a few seconds did the beast slowed down as it smoothly passed over the wall.
A massive array of factory entered the eye of the young cultivator. Every one of them looked similar to the other, and the young cultivator felt as thought his sight was flooded with the sea of ordered construct.
His range of view fell sharply at the same pace as the creature under him approached the ground. The next moment, the massive creature was already running on a broad highway that stood in the middle of the steel forest.
“Looks like this is the only way…”, he mumbled as he could sense the signal coming from the end of the highway.
The first part of the travel through the highway was spent without any pause, and only when he noticed a massive factory in the middle of the journey did he stop for a few seconds and gazed at him before resuming his trip.
The beast under him sensed Fell’s restless thought, and the bulging leg of the creature kicked the ground with even more velocity than before. Fell didn’t have any difficulty staying still on the back of the dashing creatures, and under their speedy advance, another massive factory entered his eyes.
The creature under him also noticed it. And as though it had sensed his gaze, it came to a swift stop in an area that gave a good view to the cultivator mounting it.
“What a sensible creature…”, muttered Fell while looking away from the second mother factory he had met in his road. He had guessed that those grander construct probably served as a controlling command to the rest.
Sensing that its master wasn’t interested in the factory. The towering creature resumed its journey, once again making Fell recognized its worth due to its peculiar intelligence and submissiveness.
“I still need to keep an eye on it…”, he thought quietly as his eyes fell on the creatures he had just tamed. “Keen creatures like these can be quite a hurdle if they ran havoc. Better to take precaution now…”.
He felt that violence wasn’t a sufficient means to fully control such a creature, and had thus decided to raise his influence on the creature to a whole other level. He closed his eyes, and focused his malleable sense inwardly as he began controlling his blood. He lifted his arm, and extended the index finger of his right hand over the thick skin of the creature he mounted.
A pearly drop of blood slid between the opened pores of his skin before falling on the creature’s thick skin in the same way dew would glide out of leaves. In the same way his blood left his body without any opening, the drop of water seemed to have acquired a consciousness from Fell’s intent as it pierced through the creature’s pore and infiltrated his body.
Fell sensed that a shiver coming from the creature he mounted, and the next moment, the beast rose in speed as thought it had been frightened when it sensed amiss was happening on the vessel near Fell.
He controlled that crystalline droplet of blood that contained the power of two of his cultivation path through the beast’s blood vessel. “With one cycle, the power in that drop will have been diluted with the rest of the creature’s own blood. Making my intent exist in nearly every parcel of this creature’s existence.”, he muttered as he focused himself on refining the mount under his leg.
The amount of shaking that happened to his mount rose as the refining process advance. With the last phase forcing Fell to use one last bout of violence to make the creature resume its advance.
And by the time he finished, the creatures seemed to have resigned to its fate as it focused on advancing through the highway. Fell judged the distance separating him from the signal, and knew that he only need dozen of minute of travel with the speed of the creature under him.
“No one they lost in front of them…”, he mumbled as with his advance came an upgrade in the precision of his sense. The signal that came from his front made him doubt how they hadn’t been annihilated.
“No wonder they raised that energy shield…”, thought before focusing his vision on the distance. “Eh…”, he muttered softly as he noticed something in front of him.
Due to the highway was a straight line, Fell’s superior sight picked on a pin sized black point in the distance.
His hand rose to his head as he lightly tilted his neck forward. He focused his sight on the tiny black point in the distance, and the small point turned into a black vehicle in his eyes.
