2159  2159. Poison And Zombie

The guttural and savage roar that the party heard when they approached the mana that walker had sensed was not what they expected. It sounded similar to a dragon roar, however, it was twisted. More like it had been done through a thick layer of water or mud, the sound had been muffled almost. What walker caught on to first though, was the changes in the manas. They had moved through the light elemental plane and even pushed towards what could be a deeper boundary to the elemental planes mixing here. The water and fire planes were still close. He could sense them. Yet, there was an oddness that made him reconsider the elemental planes and their positions. Specifically how there were others of his same Origin race that moved in to the unknown to find other elemental planes. The reason that he focused on this, was because he had not considered that these beings were bringing solid elemental planes toward the other elemental planes that had an established flow. Hence, they would be adding to the elemental planes rotating around the world and the flow. Chaos in to a form of unique order that remained balanced. This thought had been enough to shock him slightly. Especially since Walker felt that the chaotic outer areas between the world and the elemental planes was already so large, but what if that was just the difference in the manas learning to flow together. Their chaos was also a balance within itself. The true chaos would be outside the elemental planes flowing together. A place where entire elemental plans could condense and get broken down by the different colliding manas. Hence why there was a great deal of randomness and desires to find different elemental planes that have never been seen before. There was also the chance that the powerful Origin race beings were finding unique existence within those randomly appearing elemental planes. Monsters, intelligent races, and other things that had yet to be seen before. Literal discovery of new everything!

"I would say that there is more than just the undead fighting here." Gil's words broke Walker out of his own thought process. It was needed though, he was also shocked by what he was seeing here. 'Great Poison dragon

This is a dragon that pursued the unknown when they were young and able to manipulate their bodies much better. Through unknown means, they were able to discover the poison elemental plane which is exceedingly small due to the uniqueness of its existence. However, that was enough for them to alter their body to become that unique form of fused mana. A poison dragon is rarely seen in this shape and form. While possible, normal poison dragons are not purely poison. Instead, they are mixed dragons that result in the bonds between forest dragons and another slightly opposing dragon, often a dark dragon. This is a dragon that possesses unique poison mana which can alter to match various forms of poison. The poison elemental plane allows for the poison dragon to live comfortably, but the alterations to its body have pushed it to become very aggressive along with territorial. The damage it can do will often outweigh the damage a decaying dark dragon can do with its dark dragon breath. The poison breath has a decaying, weakening, and even soul poisoning effect.

Being able to resist its various and constantly changing poisons is something that very few beings can do. Only the poison elemental spirits often have the ability to do so, even then, they could be swallowed up by the great poison dragon living here…'

The form of the great poison dragon was similar to any other dragon. Large wings, defined claws, and scale. But it had a changing form, closer to a slime in some ways. The scales were hard, but when a large skeleton attacked them, they moved and the damage was reaped before solidifying again. Purple ooze came off of the glistening purple scales while the wings were also coated in the same. Wherever the purple ooze drifted, it became infected by it in a way. The skeletons that touched it were changing color. They were taking the poison on and adapting to it, but failing and melting their own bones. The immortal king was some distance away, but he was manipulating manas enough to tell that he had sent the skeletons to attack the great poison dragon to take away the mana there which was unique. If the skeletons could take on that mana, they would be extremely dangerous weapons. The immortal king could also use that to rebuild his body more too. A poison that could even affect the soul? That was something that they all knew was rare. However, the issue wasn't the poison of the great poison dragon, it was the fact that the entire plane was toxic and Walker was sure he did not grasp a proper understanding of the way poison mana came to be, to be able to defend the party. "Gil, start taking down the skeleton warriors with arrows. They have tougher defenses and denser skeletons, I have no idea what skeletons they are made of, but they have to be taken down before we can deal with anything else." Walker also reached out to the eternal codex, it had been absorbing mana like crazy, becoming more powerful in the sense that its internal manas had properly awakened what it was. Especially since Walker had begun to grapes space mana much better. As it changed forms and became a bow, it appeared to have various additional metal parts that had formed the bow to fire a denser mana arrow from it which could coat a solid physical arrow. Walker's thoughts were to match Gil's attacks and fire arrows at the other undead he could spot surrounding the distant immortal king. The more he damaged them the better since he wanted to take down the immortal king who was still fleeing from them while gaining more power. As he reached out in the air, one of the arrows from his high spatial storage appeared. It was a basic arrow made of dense iron, something most people would struggle to fire. They had been made during one of Gil's experimenting phases on arrows. Specifically for tougher bows and crossbows which used a lot more force overall to fire the arrows. The tougher arrow would deal more damage while also being able to handle more stress from the bows and crossbows. The reason that Walker had taken them was simple, they could handle the higher amounts of mana that he could cover them in. and since he knew that the eternal codex could change forms, he knew very well that these heavier and tougher arrows would be perfect to use with them in any situation. Especially since he had the battle skills for it. When he and Gil began releasing arrows, the immortal king did not stay idle. He sent more undead toward the party. Specifically some skeleton warriors surroundings a larger undead. 'Zombified saber cat

The earth affinity saber cat used to be one of the more dangerous predators of the world. As time went on, their size changed and they became lesser predatory monsters. This one, is an ancient body preserved perfectly using ice magic skills along with a unique method of parasitism. The formation of its body becoming zombified greatly enhanced its strength, flexibility, and aggression. It is considered one of the greatest guardians of the immortal king. So much so that he specially altered its skeletal structure to allow for two young dragon teeth to replace its natural sharp fangs. Because of this, it also received a natural boost from the remnant dragon blood it consumed through the zombification process used…'

"Remey, Su, Midnight. That zombified saber cat is very powerful. It was crafted by the immortal king using dragon teeth and enhanced by that even more. You three should be able to handle it while Gil and I handle the skeletal warriors. Onyx will be watching your backs." The plan was fine, but Remey could sense the additional pressure that the large zombified saber cat let off. The slight bit of dragon auras around it proved very much that dragon parts had been added to its body. The idea that these were just parts to the immortal king though, that was what made her angry. Remey knew that many alchemy ingredients could be from monsters as well, but they weren't just parts. They were important aspects treated with respect. They were not used to reanimate and create monsters. Playing with life and death was not normal. It was on a line that should not be crossed. Offending the balances that should exist. Definitely breaking the respect that other upstanding craftsman had for their trades.  …
