Chapter 232 Forest Of Shadows (3)
The group of creatures came close and became visible to Rishi; they were wolf-type beasts known as shadow wolves. They were very famous Shadow Element Magic Beasts known for their ability to use Shadow Element, but their teamwork also made them a force to be reckoned with even when fighting against stronger foes.
He was able to guess their stage from their size; the leading two members, both larger than two meters, were on the Elite Stage, while the others were shorter. From looking at this lineup, he was still not sure if they would be enough until he sensed the presence of another creature; It was shrouded in shadows.
This beast has concealed its presence quite well, but in this environment with a high presence of the shadow element, Rishi’s ‘Shadow Sense’ skill was very powerful; it used the shadows and the shadow energy to sense.𝔫𝞸𝒱𝞮𝐿𝒏𝐞xt.𝑪𝒪𝗆
He felt like he was in a sea of shadow energy when he used it, and any movement was felt by him as a ripple. The ripple created by it was very small, but he was able to sense it due to his strong senses. He focused on it and saw its real appearance; It was a beast with only one big eye. It had a triangular head and a sharp, pointy beak; He looked at its white eye with a black circular pupil.
It had black feathers on its back and small white feathers below its neck; a chain was hanging from its neck with a demonic pendant attached to it. His eyes then fell on its leg; It had only one leg, and instead of a claw, there was a humanoid hand attached to it.
It was like a creature that came straight out of a folk tale; its appearance could give anyone nightmares.
The serpent creature hissed and tried to intimidate its opponents, It even released its energy to scare them away. The remaining magic beasts that were here to take advantage of the situation shivered and ran away, not stopping till they were far away. This was what the pressure of superior-grade magic beasts was like.
The Shadow Wolf howled, getting enraged and attacking it; they were not backing at all. They turned into shadow stars and attacked the opponent; after finishing their attacks, they transformed into their battle form. The marks on their bodies shone a light, and they turned into a half-shadow form. They moved around the opponent and kept attacking and retreating.
If there had been only one opponent, the serpent beast could have easily defeated it, but with their teamwork, they were able to fight it. The serpent beast became serious and started swinging its tail while moving around to dodge their attacks.
Its trident-like tail shone in voile as it slashed at the opponents. The ‘Shadow Wolves’ were about to dodge when their tail went into a shadow and disappeared before appearing from a shadow behind them and slashing them.
The ‘Shadow Wolves’ used their defensive spell and used their shadows to create a shield, but it was still not enough. The attack landed and threw them toward the serpent beast; It opened its mouth and was about to release a powerful ‘Shadow Orb’ at them when the remaining ‘Shadow Wolves’ appeared and attacked its head.
This injured the serpent beast, and the direction of its attack was also changed. The remaining Shadow Wolves regained their moment and turned into shadow stars to dodge the attack before joining their teammates. The ‘Shadow Orb’ moved, hit a tree, and blasted, creating a big explosion and a small crater there; this was a strong attack.
Rishi had seen this type of ‘Shadow Orb’ used before online by other Beast Tamers, but they were nowhere near this strong. He had noticed that it spun and expanded as it moved differently from the normal ‘Shadow Orbs’ that the Beast Tamers released; they called this move ‘Shadow Blast.’
The battle continued, and both sides got injured; They fought for ten minutes, and the result was still not decided. Rishi knew that the Serpent Beast was holding on as it was vigilant about the other beasts that could ambush it, whereas the ‘Shadow Wolves’ were trying their all.
As time passed, the Serpent Beast got enraged by his opponents. He was holding on against them, and they were taking it as a weakness. It hissed and released a blackish mist, created a cloud, and disappeared from view; The Shadow Wolves grouped up, creating a circular formation.
The head and tail of the serpent beast appeared out of nowhere and attacked the ‘Shadow Wolves.’ They tried to dodge or counterattack but were not able to fight back at all, Rishi looked at the scene and thought it was over when he sensed a ripple in the surroundings.
The other beast decided to attack; The eye on its forehead shone violet, and it started to cast its skill. Multiple small violet eyes appeared around the mist and absorbed the mist before they shone and released a ray of light that hit the serpent creature.
It was about to finish off its opponent when it noticed that the mist created by it had decreased in size before it could even think about it; Multiple red rays appeared out of nowhere and hit it. It cried in agony, and the effect of its skill started to decrease as it lost control.
The Shadow Wolves didn’t let go of this opportunity and used their ultimate combo, ‘Shadow Wolf King.’ The four-faced star shape on their forehead shone violet; Their shadows stood up and combined, and a phantom of a four-meter wolf appeared. It howled and attacked the petrified opponent.
Its claws shone in a dark black aura as it started hitting the opponent; the serpent beast hissed and cried again. Its head became clear as it got injured; It was about to counterattack when a blur appeared above it and hit its head, canceling its spell. Before the separate beast could even understand the situation, it was sandwiched between the attacks of two opponents.
The serpent beast was still not ready to give up; it curled up and released a big amount of mist again before controlling it to create a giant orb of concentrated shadow elements and exploding it.
‘Boom’
A huge explosion took place that sent the winds in all directions; a big crater appeared in the area. The front was covered in dust, making it harder to see, and the shadow element had also scattered away, making it very hard for Rishi to sense anything even with the Shadow Sense technique.
