Sam looked at the spot, while specter proceeded to try and collect the soul from Rupurn"s body. He then came to the place where the disciple disappeared.
He closed his eyes and examined the place for the energy waves of spatial energy. There are small traces and he examined them deeply to see how turbulent they are and when he got the answer, he couldn"t help but smile.
He felt that what he left them is a perfect gift for the first-time meeting.
When the specter finished its job, he left the place and went for the last organization that is in his itinerary.
Meanwhile, somewhere far away from the organization, the disciples of the Butler Si are currently sitting around waiting for their companion.
At this moment, they felt the spatial waves outside the cave and one of them came out.
"Seniors come here."
The person who went out immediately yelled when he saw how the disciple who went to check on Sam reappeared.
The oldest of them all, Disciple One hurriedly came forward and examined him.
The disciple that just came back is bleeding all over and he is extremely weak and feeble. He is barely conscious and is unable to say a word out loud.
"Ten, Ten? Can you hear me? Ten?"
Disciple one yelled out and as he called for him. Disciple Ten could barely nod with all the energy seeped out of him. Disciple one is a bit relieved and started examining his body. After that, he hurriedly gave him some medicine and took him back inside to rest.
The rest of the disciples were solemn the whole time. This was just a scout mission and they believed that there would be barely any trouble, that is why they sent the junior disciple, Disciple Ten, who has the least experience on the field.
All he has to do is take a good hiding spot far away and then take a good look at what is in front of him.
Apart from that, he doesn"t have to do anything else. He should have come back scot-free. But the person in front of them looked like he was in a long battle.
Disciple one put the Disciple Ten to rest and explained the situation to the rest of his juniors.
"He is fine. But it will take some time for him to recover."
"What happened to him, senior brother?"
Disciple Nine, the person who went out first to check on the disciple ten-spoke out.
"I don"t know. But the traces of the wounds and the chaotic energy in the body indicate that this is from the spatial turbulence. He seemed to have had trouble coming through the spatial blink."
"What how is that possible?"
"We don"t know, we just have to wait until he wakes up and finds out. Meanwhile, Five, you go and keep an eye on the target."
"Yes, Senior."
With that Disciple Five left the cave and went back to the organization to see if Sam was still there, but to his disappointment, Sam already finished the remains of the organization and left the planet.
Disciple five took out a special bird from his beast pouch and sent the message back to the cave before leaving the planet as well.
Back in the cave, when the disciples got the news, they were not much surprised. But they are a bit troubled as they cannot move now. Disciple Ten"s injuries are indeed from the spatial turbulence, so he cannot go through the wormhole until he is completely healed.
Disciple One is still inspecting his body but still couldn"t figure out what is happening.
He checked for two days and didn"t see much progress, so he decided to take him back to his master.
And when he did, he was surprised by his Master"s Diagnosis.
"Be careful. Even though you have a higher cultivation level than him, it is possible for him to kill you easily, so be very very careful." Butler Si said with a solemn and thoughtful expression.
"Please elaborate master."
"The opponent knows the spatial elemental usage very well. When Ten is using the blink with the help of the token, there would be some temporary spatial nodes created that temporary gate for that moment and it should be completely stable to ensure safe travel.
But it seems like your brother was attacked when he was blinking, that part was correct, but he wasn"t attacked directly, the other party targeted the node and they managed to create a chaotic disturbance in the spiritual energy waves in the surroundings.
That created an unstable spatial tunnel that brought Ten out of that place damaging him like this. I can cure him, but he would need to rest for another week or so.
You can get back and tell the disciples to be careful about this."
Disciple One felt a bit pressured by this new information and he immediately went back to the rest of the disciples, he gave them the brief on what their master told him and all eight of them went to the next planet where Disciple five and Sam are currently at and decided to wait for his arrival.
This organization is a bit complicated and there are a lot of small branches spread all over the planet. Sam needs to take his time traveling around destroying them one by one and since he already knew these disciples are after him, he decided to throw them off track a bit.
Instead of going after the side branches first, he directly went after one of the three main branches first.
Even though they are prepared, they are caught off guard and they couldn"t do much about the situation. After that was done, Sam then went to the branch organizations. Disciple Five who already had some delay when following Sam was also caught off guard, he was thinking Sam would go after the nearest branch to the wormhole, but instead, he traveled for a whole day to reach the main branch first and destroyed it.
And then, Sam acted like a maniac and destroyed one side branch after another randomly. It is so random that Disciple Five couldn"t even connect the dots no matter what angle he looked at. And Sam is getting a lead of over a day, because of the delayed news he is getting.
He is tapping into the merchant information channels, which are the only channels left for them on the planet and they are sort of leisurely news distribution, so it is troubling him a bit.
After a series of constant failures, he decided to just wait in one location and let Sam come to that place. It is one of the main branches and that place has the strongest cultivators of the organization altogether.
Disciple Five figured that no matter how random Sam is, he would definitely deal with this branch at last.
Then when Sam arrives, he would be having a perfect look at Sam and understand how he is fighting. All this while, he has seen the traces of the battles left behind by Sam. All he could feel are some energy waves that are turbulent and a bit chaotic, but apart from that, there is nothing much he could gain, so he is really looking forward to seeing what kind of fighting style Sam has.
For the next few days, Disciple kept on hearing the news about what Sam is doing all over the planet and came to this main branch last.
He indeed met the expectations of the Disciple Five.
But Sam arrived there later than the Disciple five thought. He estimated Sam"s travel speed throughout the planet, so, he guessed that Sam would have arrived two days earlier.
Disciple Five didn"t think much of this delay, he just took up a perfect hiding spot and decided to take a good look at the battle.
Sam is easy to identify as he came directly through the front gate with his walking staff and the mask on. He knocked down the gates and went in. Disciple Five was eager to see the battle, but what awaited him was a bout of confusion.
The battle didn"t go as well as he imagined it to go.
Sam is not as aggressive as he hoped to be. He is slower than his estimation, he is clumsier than his estimation. It almost made him think that Sam lucked out with ambushes all this while, but he knew how farfetched that it is.
In the middle of the battle, Sam took a serious. .h.i.t and started running away from the scene. He is using his top speed and he didn"t even take a look back once. He just looked straight and used an energy barrier to cover his back and as he made his way out of the city and into the woods.
The elders of course didn"t dare let him slip out that easily. They are hot on his tail and Disciple Five who is looking at this battle in visible confusion followed them along sneakily.
