Dual Cultivation: Beasts and Women!

Chapter 182: Result of the Hunt

"Oh, fuck!"

The moment he turned around, Robert saw a creature with golden and silver fur, with large wings on its back and huge teeth in its mouth, appear flying only a few meters away from him, with him as its primary target.

'Silver-Winged Leopard!'

Robert was in an unprivileged position to face the Silver-Winged Leopard. But his situation wouldn't be good even if he was prepared. There wasn't much a 4-Star Spirit Master from the third realm could do against a creature two levels higher than him while he himself was without his Spirits.

But the situation was much worse than not having his Spirits at his side. The beast attacked Robert as soon as it spotted this group, one of those that had the smell of the devices that made it have to come out of its hibernation earlier.

It leaped at the leader of the Spirit Masters on the outskirts, for a moment ignoring the others who didn't show strong cultivation.

Liam and the others widened their eyes as they saw the creature approach Robert at a frightening speed. Some of them paled severely as Liam realized the problematic situation they were in.

"Get ready to fight!" he shouted to his allies.

They had no choice but to fight for their lives!

Before any of them could move, the creature reached Robert, cutting through parts of the man's armor, while bringing its mouth down on the helpless Spirit Master's head.

Robert wanted to scream to the world and escape death, but he was in an unfavorable situation. When he felt the creature's half-ton body fall on top of his, with parts of his wounds intensifying, he recognized his end moments before it came.

The creature used its firm, sharp teeth to rip Robert's head from his body, showing the surrounding cultivators the most brutal scene of their lives.

They watched in horror as a 4-Star Spirit Earth cultivator died, while their eyes and hands trembled.

Liam didn't miss his chance and attacked alongside Thal'Korr, both using Power Amplification simultaneously, while acting on opposite sides of the creature.

Liam threw his Spirit a Third Class weapon, while he himself had a sword of that rank in his hands.

They both used Shadow Projection, making the dawn shadows try to hurt the creature, or at least immobilize it.

Their auras grew stronger as the remaining Spirits of their allies attacked with them. Those Spirit Masters were terrified, but their Spirits were moving along with Liam and Thal'Korr.

When it reached the creature in the midst of Robert's assassination, Liam and Thal'Korr inflicted wounds on the creature's body, using the advantage they had over an opponent who had just made a serious attack.

Liam sensed that the creature's mana was not at its best, and given some superficial wounds staining its silver and gold body, the creature had fought others before coming here.

The Silver-Winged Leopard roared in fury at being attacked like that. It dropped Robert's head to the ground and moved away, turning its attention to Liam, the enemy now holding a sword stained with its blood.

Liam signaled to one human standing there and said. "Use the Mist of Senses!"

As the group behind the Beasts Hall, the Leopards had advanced knowledge of how to deal with beasts, and had even brought tools with them from the coliseum.

They knew that the Silver-Winged Leopard was stronger than the strongest of their men. But with their tools and weakening items for beasts like that, they had their methods of defeating the creature.

The Mist of Senses was the primary means of action they had planned against the magical creature preparing for a voracious attack on Liam.

The man with the Mist of Senses understood what he had to do, while the others summoned their tools from the coliseum to deal with the enemy.

But they were not in the situation they would have liked to be in and were naturally feeling their hearts pounding as they acted.

Liam prepared to defend himself along with the action of the allied Spirits, using the bodies of mana in his surroundings to fend off the fast-moving, powerful creature.

The Silver-Winged Leopard was not easy to fight. With its large, powerful wings, it simply sidestepped the most troublesome enemies in its path, destroying a Spirit before reaching Liam with one of its claws.

Liam's eyes widened as he felt the creature's attack, while he did his best to raise his defenses.

When the attack reached his body, however, his Third Class armor showed itself, potentially saving his life!

The armor was cut from his left chest to his lower right abdomen, with a subtle trail of blood appearing on Liam's body.

Liam felt the sting of the wound the enemy had inflicted on him as he stood very close to the creature. Fortunately, he hadn't suffered anything worse!

He swung his sword at the creature's neck, forcing it to dodge and move a little away from him at that moment.

Thal'Korr soon caught up with the creature and give his master some space.

'Shit! This beast is too strong!'

Liam retreated a few meters, when he felt a pain in his soul, as Thal'Korr disappeared from the area after being destroyed by the beast.

At that moment, a golden dust spread around the area, creating an affected area of over 300 square meters around everyone involved in the situation.

The Spirits and their masters continued with their perfectly normal senses, but the beast threatening them lost parts of its sight, hearing and sense of smell. Even the area's mana made it feel disturbed by what was around it.

"Attack!" Liam knew these effects wouldn't last long and shouted to his companions as he ran at the beast.

Two of the three remaining individuals advanced with the Beasts Hall's magical tools in hand, while Liam attacked with his sword.

One of them reached the creature's neck with a special tool for controlling creatures like this leopard from a distance. Such an item could weaken the mana of magical creatures and facilitate the work of tamers.

Meanwhile, the other tried to attach similar items to the legs of the creature, one from the back and one from the front of the animal.

Their aim was to force the creature to the ground while Liam delivered the killing blow.

Liam jumped with his sword pointed toward the beast's head, using much of the mana he had to strengthen his movement.

Just as he was about to reach the creature's body, its eyes flashed a golden hue, and it changed direction in a very conscious way.

'Shit! The Mist of Senses has lost its effect!'

thought the last man, who was at the rear, ready for Plan B.

The creature felt furious at having parts of its body learned by its enemies and struggled, trying to escape from the opponent's tools.

It was weakened from the effects of those items, but those holding it back were still only Spirit Lords, while it was about to enter the last part of the third realm.

It moved its body with great force and speed, causing the men connected to it by their tools to overbalance and fall in its vicinity.

The only thing it wasn't fast enough to dodge was Liam, who fell on its back, missing the cut to the head, but hitting the creature's right lung.

The beast roared in pain as an enemy fell on top of its body.
