The Universe Is Innately Just

A soul-wrenching screech left the creature"s horrific mouth, and the purple-colored tentacles darted toward the position of the sword.

But it was far too late, and the creature was half a beat behind Fell in terms of reaction speed. A deep line appeared in a minute intersection of the creature"s leg. The next moment a clear distinction arose in the glossy surface of the black colored leg. Without any surprise, the lower part of the leg began stayed in place, but the rest of the leg still attached the creature slid on what was left and began falling toward the ground.

A satisfied glint surfaced on the young cultivator"s amber-colored face, but that wasn"t all. A minute tremor ran through s.p.a.ce, and without any notice, another line appeared on the second leg that was attached in the middle part of the creature"s exoskeleton.

A wave of ephemeral and incorporeal sharp intent burst out from the line that surfaced on the glossy blackleg, and the same scene was repeated once again. Two long thin legs could be seen plunged deeply on the ground, but they were no longer connected with the spider"s body.

"Wryyyyyyyyyyyyy!", a blood curling screech reverberated through the s.p.a.ce around the humongous creature. The scream was filled with tremendous anger and pain, a bewitching wrathful intention that resented the puny human that had appeared in her senses.

Without any hesitation, her tentacles darted toward the human"s frail figure, with the intent to penetrate his fragile physical body. She couldn"t understand how the puny human had managed to take down four of her legs with her only noticing his work in the last moment, but she was h.e.l.l-bent on smiting him with wrathful anger.

Her soul-infused ghastly wails broke through the void and encompa.s.sed the figure of the young cultivation-who instantly felt the pressure around him raise- an alarm rose in his head, and he instinctively glanced at the ephemeral veil surrounding him.

What he saw nearly caused a jolt in his heart; Bubbles had made their appearance in the outer layer of the soul veil surrounding his body, and as the pressure from the spider creature rose around him, the bubbles grew in size. Showing the instability his defenses were going through.

He didn"t know what would happen if he faced the creature"s attack through his body alone. But an ominous hunch made want to avoid that situation at any cost, and with that thought, a change happened in his soul palace.

A fresh, chilling breeze left his soul palace and began attaching itself on the veil. The strange, cold, aura swiftly made the difference, and the noticeable bubbles on the soul-powered curtain diminished at speed noticeable for the naked eye.

"Soul power is the best medium to defend against another soul-based attack…", he thought in a split second before noticing something approaching his body at an extraordinary speed.

Seven, purple colored, tentacles made their way toward his position in an unstoppable spring. They pierced through the air and whipped at his position in the blink of an eye. An explosion reverberated in the place where he stood, and the wind screeched as shock-waves spread from the strength contained in the tentacles" momentum.

Fell panicked slightly when noticing the movement in his surroundings. But the refreshing sensation coming from his soul palace made his thought process faster, and calmer. He glanced at the purple tendril moving through the air and wasn"t especially surprised by their speed as he had already seen them in action.

At most, he would say that those tentacles were slightly faster due to the creature"s anger. He felt that his ego body still contained part of the spatial scripture, and he stepped forward.

The step was effectuated in mid-air and was did by Fell due to a peculiar gutsy feeling that the mystical seal could be used in such means. The action may be seen as dangerous, but ever since his soul palace had opened up, he had felt his mind turn keener on what he could do with his strength.

The step looked simple. Similar in many senses to how he had walked in his life, it wasn"t hurried and was composed as if he was walking among a group of individuals.

In the last moment, right where his feet were pressing on the air under him, a change happened.

His figure blurred, and multiple ghostly bodies appeared next to his own. Then, in a ghostly and surreal manner, his body blinked, and he disappeared in mid-air.

The tentacle hit the empty air where he had been, and the air visibly shook from the strength contained in the blow from the seven purple extensions.

The scene might have taken quite a bit to describe. But all of this happened in split seconds, before the young cultivator"s body even had the take to begin free falling. From his appearance in the humongous creature"s soul radar, to his lightning-fast attack using part of the scripture, then his escape in extremis.

In the humongous creature"s view, the puny human had appeared in a moment before disappearing akin to a ghost. Everything had seemed too ephemeral and surreal for it.

It had stood on top of the evolutionary chain. Abusing her strength left and right-growing stronger by the day- it had climbed to the peak of the place where it had lived.

Never in her beastly life had she felt resentment this big. And her mind jolted black when she felt her purple tendril hit the void, the pleasurable sensation of shredding the puny human to fleshly rags didn"t happen.

She sensed her large body shift forward even more, and a weird shriek escaped her horrifying mouth once again.

Not only did the otherworldly beastly scream contain her uncountable hate and anger toward the puny figure, something else was added to the mix.

Fear and ignorance had dissolved with her resentment to form an horrifying- heart wrenching- scream that reverberated through the battlefield.

Everywhere around the North Wall. The sounds, akin to a scream from the devil itself, spread through the entirety of the battlefield and was heard by every single life form that existed there.

The emotion felt by the creature were fully infused in that scream. And her special soul power made that component even noticeable by the most normal of mortal, be it among the beasts of the human present.

The purple tentacle-like tendrils were retraced back in a snap, and the creature did its utmost in balancing her body whit the two legs it had. It released multiple unG.o.dly sounds and noises from her horrific deadly mouth, but it was to no avail as it sensed her effort go in waste.

Having only two legs to support herself was too much for its heavy weight. And it was only a matter of time before her two forward legs broke from the overexertion.

Not far from the hazardously moving enormous creature, close to the mountain of beast corpses that laid in the hundred-meter radius of the creature. A frail figure, with a size ridiculous in comparison with the enormous creature, appeared out of nowhere.

An apparent black hue could be seen in the s.p.a.ce around the place where he had surfaced, with clear spatial fluctuation that took a few seconds to die out.

His face was pale, and he felt as if his whole body was shrunken to a ridiculous size before being sent in a vortex filled with twisted rotation streams. Yet, at the same time, he had felt a rising inward pressure colliding with his body, and forcing itself on him during the spatial mid-air step.

During that time, he had also felt the complete opposite. An outward pressure that gave him the sensation his body had more than tripled in size had taken hold of his guts.

His senses were in complete shambles, and his lips trembled continuously while the youth had troubled calming his twisted senses. His perception had gone through a roller coaster during the special moves, and the little amount of time that had pa.s.sed wasn"t enough for him to recover.

"What the h.e.l.l?!", he mumbled after a lengthy breath. A minute had pa.s.sed, and although his face was noticeably more colorful and seemed healthier. His eyes were still marked with the horror and panic his mind had gone through during the spatial step. "I"ll never try something new in a dangerous battle.", he briskly promised himself as his mind had truly gone through something he hadn"t expected.

"Unless I"m obliged, I won"t use technique I didn"t train in real battle… Unless I"m obliged.", he added with a slight smile on his face. Even with the fear he had felt still fresh, he still couldn"t block the wave of satisfaction and dopamine that washed his heart and mind.
