Limitless Evolution: The Path To Immortality

Chapter 180 Final Objective [3] - King's Sword Style

?

When they all looked back, a horrific scene unfolded before their very eyes.

Nymira's eyes were filled with horror that was about to turn into a rage; however, when she saw whose head had fallen to the ground, her eyes softened slightly while a sigh of relief left her mouth.

"Thank god..." She muttered to herself, yet, that relief didn't last long.

Before them was a spider web that completely blocked off their exit.

She had no idea when it had been placed there, but she knew that they were fucked.

'I just have to protect Syra until I can somehow find a way out of here.' Nymira thought while stepping in front of her.

However, Syra wasn't in her right mind to even realize this.

Her eyes were locked on the head on the floor, while her eyes were filled with tears.

As the boy fell to the ground, Zelon, who was on his back, rolled over beside him with a surprised expression.

"Damnit, David. Don't drop me-" Zelon's eyes finally fell upon his friend; however, he wasn't the same as before.

After all, how could he remain the same when he no longer had a head?

"D-David..." Zelon, who had been trying to rest on David's back the entire time, didn't see what had happened.

He only opened his eyes when he felt something warm on his face while he fell on the ground, and now that he was looking at his friend's corpse, terror could not help but seep into his soul.

His friend... No... His best friend was lying dead before him, with his head having already been detached from the rest of the body, and flung away as it was a piece of trash.

"D-David!" Tears streamed down his face.

"NOOOOOO!" He screamed so loud that it would have woken up the three unconscious people if not for the fact that they were all so tired.

However, even those who were still conscious didn't pay him any attention.

Syra, who was still staring at David's corpse, felt like puking. Yet, before long, she composed herself as quickly as she could.

Her breathing grew steady, and with a stoic expression, she looked in the same direction as Eclipse and Nymira.

At first, she was a little surprised to see them look at something with so much fear, but when her eyes landed upon the thing they were staring at, she immediately understood what they were feeling.

Because she felt it too.

Her eyes widened quickly, and her previously calmed state began to shift into one of panic.

"W-What is that." She asked with a shocked tone.

"That..." Nymira paused and bit her lip.

The once giant spider was on the floor with a huge cut going from its head to the end of its back.

It looked like someone, particularly powerful, had slashed it; however, everyone there knew that wasn't the case.

Slowly, out of the cut, the figure of a woman began to come out of the creature's body.

"Is that what I think it is." Eclipse thought aloud, but he didn't get an answer.

The figure of a woman slowly got out of a hunched position to show off her new body.

Everything from her lower armpit was covered with an exoskeleton, but in a way, it looked easily removable.

The woman didn't have eyes like a normal person. She had four eyes where a normal human would have had eyes, and they were closer to a spider's eyes than a human's.

However, two of those eyes looked like that of a human, while the other six looked like that of a spider. Her skin was a marble-like lavender purple.

She had long bare purple arms, and a head of silky black hair that went all the way down to her waist.

Everyone thought that she would have a full human body; however, she she walked out of the corpse of the spider queen, they saw that her waist was attached to some kind of spider. It looked like an ordinary spider. It was much smaller than the rest; however, it was still about a meter tall on its own.

"A metamorphoses." Nymira muttered under her breath.

"Shit. Don't get distracted." Eclipse looked away from the spider woman with a strained glare.

"I'm not attracted to women." Syra said with distress in her voice.

She could tell that the creature before them was insanely powerful, even if it didn't release its cultivation's magical aura.

"It doesn't matter. That's a Soul-Weaver Spider. No... It's an evolved version of one. They take seductive forms in order to lure in their enemies and kill them. The entrance you with those presence alone, so look away to lower the effect." Eclipse explained, making Syra immediately look at the ground.

However, there was one among them that didn't look away from the creature before them.

"Nymira! What are you doing! Look away!" Eclipse said, but Nymira didn't say anything.  I think you should take a look at

Instead, she lowered herself into a fighting position and took a deep breath. 

"No..." She muttered under her breath, and in a single second, she let out the full power of her toki control.

"That-" Syra suddenly looked up as she felt the power coming off Nymira.

"Eclipse. Find a way out of here. Make sure Syra isn't hurt." She took a step forward.

"Wait! Nymira, no!" Syra shouted, causing Nymira to look back with a hint of surprise before a smile appeared on her face.

"Get to safety." She smiled and looked back at the monster before her.

"This thing is mine!" Without a moment of hesitation, Nymira launched forward with everything she had.

Her body immediately turned into a blur, and before any of the humans could react, she was right in front of the spider creature.

"You... Strong." The female spider smiled maliciously as it spoke in broken human tongue.

Nymira's eyes widened momentarily, but she didn't stop her attack.

Suddenly, her sword flared with tremendous power as toki erupted out of her body with so much ferocity that Eclipse and Syra, despite being so far away from them, had to take a step back.

However, the spider stood its ground with a menacing grin.

"King's Sword Style." Nymira muttered and changed her breathing.

Suddenly, in the eyes of the creature before it, it had become much more threatening. The creature took a step back, but it was far too late.

"Royal Decimation." Nymira's sword flashed with a milky-white light as it descended upon the monster before it.

Nymira wasn't holding anything back, and this attack was her strongest.

The woman quickly raised her arms to block the attack, but something happened that made her widen her eyes.

The visible toki aura around the sword was passing through her arm as if they weren't even there. Actually, they were passing through her exoskeleton unperturbed, yet, the moment it touched the woman's skin under the exoskeleton, a burning sensation sent a jolt of pain through her body.

*Swish*

*BOOM*

A flash of blinding white light caused Eclipse and Syra to shield their eyes despite how hard it was to do so while carrying people on them.

The spider quickly weaved its threats to block as much of the attack as possible, but it could barely create 30% of the web before the attack would land.

In the next instance, that very same bright light coming off the sword shot through the cavern's roof and into the sky.

"Sir... What's that."

Back in the town, people looked toward the forest. It was already dark, yet the sky was being illuminated by something.

The man that had been previously talking to Syra looked in that direction and widened his eyes.

"C-Call the academy... I feel that something is terribly wrong!" The man said with a distressed tone, and everyone did the best they could to do what he told them to.

However, he was not the only one who felt that energy.

On the other side of the Xylem kingdom, a man sitting in the lotus position could be seen cultivating.

Mana entered his body at an extremely quick rate as something burned within his stomach with a bright light.

The mana he was gathering was almost milky-white in nature; however, it wasn't very thick right now since he was at the end of his cultivation.

The giant's blood drop burning within his stomach for a while longer, and at the end, the young man's eyes slowly opened, revealing a pair of luminescent emerald eyes that burned with a vigor that could not be seen in many.

It was filled with many emotions; however, they quickly died. down as the young man looked in a particular direction.

"Hmm? I wonder why they didn't wake me." 

And in the next second, he was gone... But not just from the room.

He was gone from the city itself, and it had only taken him a second to do so.
