Chapter 86: Boars
Chapter 86: Boars
While Ruth was observing the area where Minos was from above, he had taken his grade-2, low-grade sword from his spatial ring and prepared for the impending battle.
It didn’t take long, and a group of 50 wild boars started to appear in Minos’ vision.
Each had two sharp canine teeth that protruded out of their mouths. These teeth were slightly curved upwards and measuring about 20 centimeters in length.
Each of these wild boars was 1.5 meters high and certainly weighed more than 400 kilograms each. It also had many brown hairs and small, completely reddish eyes.
Looking at the boars in front of him, Minos could see that this pack was hungry due to the saliva that was dripping from the mouths of many of these spiritual beasts. It was here to hunt them down and then feed on their meat!
‘Well, since that is the case, I don’t need to take it easy…’ He thought as he prepared to start fighting.
Fighting with a group of spiritual beasts was not an easy task.
Unlike humans, spiritual beasts had a sense of cooperation that was far superior to that of humans. Because of this, even beasts with low intelligence were able to give work to their enemies, hunting in large groups, as in this case.
The boars began to look at Minos even more sharply as if they were preparing to attack the young man in front of its. But unfortunately for these spiritual beasts, they had not yet reached the 5th stage, when they could better probe the surroundings where they were.
That’s because, even if Minos couldn’t handle them, there was still Ruth and her eagle, who were just a few feet away, waiting for the fight.
At that time, the boars finally entered the area that Minos’ techniques would influence. And realizing this, he immediately activated his techniques at once.
Devouring Art!
Indestructible Body!
Spatial Sword!
In doing so, Minos’ body suddenly increased his strength and hardness, while a dark ring appeared a few meters above where he was.
Slowly the spiritual energy of the 50 beasts began to be converted into energy for Minos to use when an invisible force quickly blocked the space around a distance of 40 meters from Minos.
As the spiritual beasts had not yet reached the 5th stage of cultivation, and therefore, they were in the same stage as Minos, so many of them were being affected, to the point that they were barely able to move!
Of course, as their number was simply enormous, some wild boars were not being restricted like others. But even so, the speed of all of its had been severely reduced.
And as much as spiritual beasts are stronger than humans at the same level of its, this is only related to their physical strength.
As they could not use techniques and were under the influence of Minos’ attack technique, it only remained to bear it!
Meanwhile, Minos quickly began to make his movements with the sword, gracefully and nobly. With that, in a fraction of one second, several blades of air were hurled at those beasts who suffered the most from the influence of the Spatial Sword.
Swooish!
Swooish!
The blades flew towards the great bodies of the boars while these beasts felt a mortal danger approaching its.
Some of its tried to deflect with everything it had, but it was challenging to move in that place. It was as if something involved its bodies and increased resistance to movement.
Grrr!
Grrr!
Wailing sounds were heard when at last several boars were hit and hurled into the distance. Most of its were still alive, but about ten wild boars died in that single attack.
Riiinch!
Seeing the results of the first attack, Minos wasted no time and soon continued to attack while seeing that some beasts were already coming towards him with angry looks.
‘Well, come! With you, I can at least win!’ Minos thought about it while he fought.
Having his techniques ignored when he fought Ruth gave him a very suffocating feeling, which stressed Minos a lot.
Because of that, being able to destroy these spiritual beasts was quite satisfying for the young Minos at the time!
Spatial Sword!
Another set of blades was thrown while four wild boars hit Minos with full force!
Swooish!
Poof!
The attack of the four boars only pushed Minos back, while his powerful defense absorbed all the damage from the attack.
At the same time, yet another group of wild boars were making noises of pain for the last time before they finally stopped breathing.
…
While Minos fought with the group of boars, Ruth was watching and probing the fight the entire time. She knew that the young Stuart was powerful, but she was still worried about him.
That was 50 spiritual beasts!
Each of its was stronger than he. And even if it were from the same stage, this was still a difficult fight!
But when she saw Minos’ performance as he fought, Ruth soon put the worry aside and began to form a beautiful smile on her face.
She didn’t understand why, but she felt very good about seeing it. It was a feeling that was almost as if she was proud of him…
‘Hmm, it looks like he will be able to deal with all of its.’ She analyzed the situation calmly. Minos’ techniques really were quite dominating, and Ruth recognized this even more when she saw it were at work against other living beings.
‘If the difference in our spiritual energy was not so vast, I could never ignore these techniques…’ She thought as she sighed softly. Ruth then murmured to herself. “I have to try harder to increase my cultivation. Otherwise, he will leave me behind.”
…
Meanwhile, Minos had already killed more than 40 wild boars in the last 8 seconds, leaving him with only two more seconds before his defensive technique collapsed. And when that happened, Minos would be completely exhausted and would no longer be able to fight.
After all, he was using a grade-2, low-grade sword, which required a lot of his body these days. Minos then hurried and activated his attack technique once again, making several moves towards the vital points of the remaining enemies.
Spatial Sword!
Swooish!
Swooish!
The blades ran towards the seven remaining boars, which were now wholly stopped. It, too, had already exhausted most of its reserves and were no longer able to ignore the restriction imposed by Minos’ attack.
These spiritual beasts were sweating cold when it finally received their respective blows.
Boom!
The dead bodies were hurled at a distance while destroying a part of the vegetation in the vicinity where the fight was taking place.
“Ha… Haa… Ha…” Minos held on to the side of a tree, breathing vigorously, while his clothes were completely wet with sweat and with several tears. His defense technique was excellent, but it only protected the physical body of its user!
“Phew, it’s finally over!” He exclaimed in a low voice, trying to recover from the tremendous nighttime effort he had just gone through.
At the same time, seeing that the fight was over, Ruth descended from the sky with her great white eagle beside the land where they were camping.
Seeing this, Minos smiled at her but said nothing.
He just sat in a meditative position and began to circulate his cultivation technique, Solar God Breath. At the same time, several spiritual crystals appeared around him, while they shone brightly and had its energies gradually sucked out.
While Minos was cultivating, Ruth immediately started gathering the bodies of all 50 beasts in one place. After that, she instantly incinerated them so that the smell of blood would not attract other spiritual beasts from this region.
She and Minos had no interest in collecting the meat from these beasts. First, they both had large quantities of crystals, and second, they did not want to delay their trip to look for a place to sell these beasts. With that, it would make no sense to occupy the small space of their spatial rings with the corpses of beasts as worthless as these!
…
Three hours passed quickly, and Minos had finally fully recovered from the previous battle.
At that point, he and Ruth decided to alternate while one rested and the other watched the surroundings. After all, they were in a place called The Valley of the Beasts, so it wouldn’t be very good if they both went to sleep at the same time.
With that, time quickly started to pass when the day’s rays took place at night, while the surroundings gradually became clearer.
Right now, Ruth was at the top of a tree, looking around this region and waiting for Minos to finish his rest.
She had taken the second round since Minos had just cultivated after the fight, being full of energy at that moment. With that, after sleeping for a while, Ruth switched places with young Minos, reaching the current situation.
And after the day cleared, it was not long before Minos had woken up.
With that, the two ate some spiritual fruits and disarmed their tent when they finally left this place to continue their journey. Soon after, an embraced couple could be seen taking off on a large white eagle from this place, near a lake, at the foot of a hill.
