God's Eyes

Chapter 874 - Youths?

With Artemis' wings accelerating his speed, Jason appeared in front of the closest human just a few seconds later.

He was holding a shortsword, but that didn't bother Jason.

Instead of evading the sword's slash, Jason accepted it readily as he manifested huge chunks of ice out of his arm and lifted it.

Facing the sword with his normal ice affinity would be suicidal, but after intertwining the moonlight affinity with the ice affinity, it was more than enough to face the simple sword slash.

The young man opposite him was not even circulating any energy through his sword, evidently reluctant to injure him.

But, he didn't show the same partiality to Jeniffer.

After all, it was crystal clear that he had been out to injure Jennifer without any hesitation.

And Jason, who knew this, didn't think of wasting this great opportunity, as he enveloped the young man's entire sword arm with several layers of ice before launching an attack.

Leveraging himself above his opponent using the fact that his own arm was a little stuck in the huge chunk of frozen ice blocking the arm of his opponent, Jason used every inch of strength within his body to kick his opponent in the neck.

Even though he was close to killing the young man in a single attack, Jason had intentionally missed his targeted area and broke his collarbone instead of his neck.

After this, the impact caused the ice to break, and the young man was flung several meters to the side.

Because they were flying in the air, the young man was bashed into the ground like a rock.

He was unable to move for a few seconds before he felt insufferable pain coursing through his upper body.

Jason might have felt a little bit guilty about this if he were to be only sparring with someone, however, he knew that Jennifer's life was on the line.

As such, he didn't feel any regret about not having held back in his attack.

He then turned his attention to the other man, who had shot towards Jennifer.

Perceiving the man's killing intent, Jason quickly exerted the Hermes Celeration technique with his moonlight transmuted mana, and a portion of his replenished divine energy.

Only a moment later, he unleashed his Celestia aura and activated his stigma in order to further accelerate himself.

Within the blink of an eye, he had reached a terrifying speed that created faint ripples of air around him as he shot ahead like a comet.

His high speed allowed him to emerge next to the opponent who was only a few meters away from Jennifer. She wasn't waiting for her opponent idly and had also geared up for the fight.

But before the human could even raise his hand to attack her, Jason's fist connected with his side as he punched hard into his waist.

The sound of breaking bones could be heard, and Jason was unable to keep himself together either as his fists began to ache heavily.

This caused him to feel a little bit odd because he was pretty sure that the second young man was only a little bit stronger than his friend in terms of cultivation base.

Yet, a low tingle in his fingers made him look at his hand, where he saw that two bones had cracked a little.

Even if he was not in his most powerful form right now, this was still astonishing.

And, as he looked at the young man whose waist seemed fine with no visible deformation, he felt a little bit astonished.

Nevertheless, instead of looking at the young man he had flung backward, Jason circulated the purest form of his moonlight affinity, and divine energy through his hand in an effort to tend to the broken bones as quickly as possible.

As the two bones were cleanly broken into two pieces, it wouldn't take long to be healed, even less with the capabilities he had.

However, this didn't mean that he could avert his focus from the young man.

His opponent's body was suddenly enveloped in a thick translucent membrane that revealed faint black traces

The outlines had an uncanny resemblance to a humanoid Lizard, but from the looks of it, the transformation was still underway. It almost looked like the young man was unable to control himself properly.

Having no idea about what was going on, Jason could only look at the young man and the transforming membrane. As he watched in a daze, it slowly took the form of a bipedal being, resembling the earth dragon he had seen before to a great extent.

This astonished Jason greatly, and looking at the situation that unfolded in front of him, he could only wonder about one thing.

'Did he bind a wandering soul to himself??'

What he was currently seeing was certainly different from what humans from Argos were capable of doing.

Jason presumed that he could also bind the wandering souls owing to his soul world core's reaction.

However, he couldn't really be sure of that because none of the other humans from Argos had done this before…or, if they had, he simply didn't see it!

The fact that he had not come across anyone who had bound a wandering soul didn't mean that it was not possible at all.

But, after thinking about Linus, or the other humans from the settlement, they should have all been eager to bind a wandering soul.

Not only were the wandering souls extremely powerful, but their soul amplification should be interesting too.

And by looking at the young man, Jason couldn't help but feel that he knew why his bones gave in so easily.

The young man was screaming out in pain, and unable to control what was happening to the wandering soul that began to envelop him.

"He bound a beast that was too powerful for him!"

Mumbling this to himself, Jason couldn't help but feel a little bit odd.

Even though the young men had wanted to kill Jennifer, a closer look at them told him and Jennifer that they were not even close to their age.

They were at most 16 years old, which was shocking.

Yet, instead of dwelling on this, Jason felt that there might have been a misunderstanding between them.

As such, without thinking about killing the young man, he shot towards the screaming youth as he offered him some respite from his pain.

"Listen carefully! If you don't want the wandering soul to take over your body, look me into the Eyes, NOW!"

After asking Petri to replace Artemis, he had momentarily fused with the Cursed Basilisk, before manifesting his reptilian eyes.

Through this, the curses Petri harbored became much stronger, and with the additional use of divine energy and the strengthened moonlight affinity, the two curses, and his abyssal effect were more than enough to take take the young man out.

The only issue was that he had to look into Jason's eyes which he seemed reluctant to do.

"LOOK!" Jason thus shouted once again as his aura that had been transmuted by Petri's fusion pierced through the wandering soul that was being released by the youth.

At the moment the King's aura of Petri pierced into the young man, forcing his eyes to open.

With a shocked expression, he faced every single effect or ability Jason had, as the highest enhanced curses and abyssal effect were displayed in their true glory.

Within a moment, the youth passed out, and the wandering soul retracted. Jason could barely regain enough strength to break the young man's fall, who was about to crash into the ground, just like his friend.

At his moment, Jason couldn't help but smile dryly, feeling a little bit weak because forcing the youth to lose his consciousness had been much harder than expected.

'The mysterious energy enhanced his mind far more than it is the case with someone cultivating in the path of Spiral!'

As this realization sunk in, Jason, who was holding the youth, found something even more astonishing.

He was wondering what kind of race the youth belonged to. As far as he knew, not a single human from Argos should be able to reach the Ascendion stage…at the age of 16!
