After Cole gave the equipment and weapon he bought from the System Shop to his pets, a strange sight of everyone flexing their own gift happen in front of his very eyes.
And the one who taunt other the most is Blue as he run in Shelly's back with black cloud looming in its head, releasing an occasional lightning flash.
Woo~~
Woo!!
Owo~~~
Everytime Blue pass on the others, he won't forget to cry, calling their attention.
The others also show their own unique way of enjoying Cole's gift.
For instance, Bell is in front of the small lake, looking at her reflection in the water.
Groot have also worn the Deceptive Mask but since Cole had the [Heavenly Eye] which could always dispel and nullify any illusion, he can't tell whether the said mask is properly working.
As for Coal, it was controlling the chained hammer, striking the air with high temperature. It was unfortunate that the latter can't test its might by smashing rocks lest it want to be throw out by Shelly.
Still, Cole could see that the little lizard is enjoying the experience.
The Sun Crystal Gem Orb and Moonlight Disc was already embedded on the water elemental body of Pis-ces, absorbing its own unique fuel which was the light of sun and moon.
Since the two was already a ten, if not hundreds, years old, they weren't as childish as Blue and only swam in the air in the very relax manner. But since Cole already knew the two for some time, he could tell that it was their own unique way of enjoyment.
Celia is currently meditating on her position, already trying to increase the rank of her own gift.
As Cole said before, everything that he bought was a Growth-type weapon and equipment. In a sense, it was the same as his [Transforming Soulbound Feathers] he acquire from his [Immortal Regal Phoenix Special Physique].
Only, different from his [Transforming Soulbound Feathers], the equipment he bought from the System had their own way of increasing its rank. For him, his [Transforming Soulbound Feathers] will level up along with his level and stage. But for others, let's say Blue's Tribulation Punishment Cloud, it needs to absorb the tribulation cloud before it disperse. It also need a huge amount of [Heavenly Punishment Lightning] but since Blue had comprehended that [Concept], he could provide the needed amount of Heavenly Lightning.
Virgo is already clutching the Overflowing Temporal-Sand Vase, sending out a terrifying amount of Time-Energy in the equipment and already produced a hill of time sand. Only, since it was just a Mortal Grade Equipment, the produced temporal sand was more on quantity than quality.
Despite the massive cost of the equipment, Cole felt contended while looking at his happy companion.
Only, now those weapons and equipments also need massive amount of time and investment in order to increase its grade.
But for now, he'll put them aside as he could see from the dungeon map in front of him that he's near the place of Holy Beast Mountain.
And by that time, he could hear the different cry of beasts!
In the sky, there's also massive blazing bird, spewing out fire! It was the beast form of Lady Scarlet, the Vermillion Phoenix!
Using his excellent eyesight, Cole watch from the distance after arriving.
And the first thing he could say was that... the situation of Holy Beast Mountain are in disadvantage side.
As of now, the status of the battle looks a little strange as the four wolf pack beast, the Thunderfire Alpha Wolf, along with the Lightningfire Wolf, are actually attacking the Black Sharp Stripe Sword-Fang Tiger and Frost Lynx. And due to number superiority, the pack of wolf is on the winning side as they grind to exhaustion the tiger and lynx.
Different from their action, the four wolf beast show a face of indignation. It was apparent that they don't like to attack their ally.
On their back was a disheveled woman that had a human shaped cocoon. And since Cole was quite sensitive to corpse-energy, he could clearly felt its existence in the woman's body. Without a doubt, that woman should be the team leader of Corpse Refining Sect's disciples.
But different from the others, she could actually control a living creature instead of corpse puppet!
The said woman actually control the wolf pack by using an unknown thread! In the distance, she look like a common puppeteer from Earth.
On the other side not far from the battling beasts, there's a literal blood domain. The huge amount of blood was well controlled and create a sphere that was floating in the sky. This sphere and domain of blood was the thing that Lady Scarlet is trying to burn by spewing a scorching breath of fire.
Only, as though the blood was inexhaustible, the evaporated amount by the fire is immediately replaced, forming a stable sphere and domain of blood.
Tens of blood vines formed every second and was trying to catch the blazing Vermillion Phoenix. But since the Phoenix was a avian beast and had natural sky movement superiority, the numerous amount of blood vines fail to catch the bird.
If the Vermillion Phoenix wanted to, she could escape and save her own life. But it seems the beast had human like emotion and can't make herself abandon her ally.
Occasionally, perhaps due to fatigue of Lady Scarlet, blood vibes will reach her body and try to constrict her.
Fortunately, in the Phoenix's back is the familiar Princess Rainbow Oriole. The small but terrible bird will spew its own fire breath and disperse the blood vine that managed to catch the Vermillion Phoenix.
The five colored bird will also release an occasional green light that heal the injury Lady Scarlet receive. It was a wood-type healing skill.
Since the caster of blood domain guard from the fire of Vermillion Phoenix, he or she is probably hidden inside the blood sphere. But definitely, the hidden human is the team leader and the most powerful disciple of Blood Demon's Creed.
Just like the other sect, there's ten beast from the Holy Beast Mountain. But from what Cole could count from his current position, there were only a total seven beast in the site, including the three controlled wolf beast.
The Lurking Gecko, Dark Crow and Yin Poison Snake is nowhere to be found...
Eventhough the first mentioned two was best on hiding themselves but those stealth and hiding skills had no effect under Cole's [Heavenly Eyes]. Still, he don't see information appear on his eyesight...
He just hope that the other three were just in another location and not on another realm... Like the realm of dead.
After watching and checking the situation for more time, Cole decided to intervene after some time.
But much to his surprise, the disheveled beast controlling woman raise her head and look at his direction!
Cole immediately frown. It seems that the unkempt woman is more than what meets the eye. She's definitely an expert of her own rights!
"Ou~~ A spatial-type Tier-5 beast? That is way more better than this group of dogs!" After the unkempt woman talk to her self, the single thread that connects and control to one of Lightningfire Wolf was severed by her and send towards Cole's direction!
Seeing this, the woman truly felt the presence and pinpoint their location. And base on what she said, it was apparent that she had the intention of controlling Shelly and make him her own beast puppet!
Hostility instantly flash in Cole's eyes. He immediately thought of using powerful move to greet the unscrupulous woman!
"Blue, use [Lightning Descend] on that woman."
All of his pets already felt his emotional state through their soul contract.
Upon receiving the command, all of Blue's fur stand up and howl to the sky, "Woo~~ Woo!!" Blue colored lightning that was the Heavenly Punishment Lightning appear on the fox body like a group of lively snake.
At the same sky, black clouds appear on the sky, on the top of the unkempt woman.
The fluctuation produced by that single attack is very strong that the moment the black clouds appear, all of the creatures at the site felt its arrival.
The unkempt woman who's already sending her mind controlling mystic thread stop on her track and look up to the sky, "Ability to summon a tribulation cloud? That's definitely a Divine Ability!" She exclaimed in surprise.
"Unfortunately, that ability is too slow to cast that it gave the target a chance to escape!" She added with tone of mockery as she fled from her spot. She also place the wolf pack on her last position!
What a vicious woman! Now that she had another beast target to control, she want to dispose the three wolves using borrowed knife!
Also, the moment the unkempt woman sever the thread from the three wolves, the three beast seem to recieve a heavy injury to their soul. Eventhough they were controlled no more, they can't escape as they lose their consciousness!
Unfortunately for her, she was just the same as him, a Peak Nascent Soul-Stage demonic cultivator. No matter how powerful she was, she won't be able to escape from one of his spirit!
"Virgo, restrain her. Bell, stop her in her track using [Mental Shout]."
Upon hearing his command, a pair of wings appear behind Virgo and immediately vanish from her spot. At the same time, Bell inhale a deep breath of air and release a jingle like sound, which sound pleasant and harmless.
But fleeing unkempt woman instantly stop on her track and clutch her head while her dirty face show how deep the mental injury she recieved. There were even some blood trickle from her ears!
In the end, the unkempt woman was just a Nascent Soul-Stage which was equivalent to Tier-4 while Bell is already a certified Tier-5 Spirit!
If not because the unkempt woman had a powerful mental strength, she would've lose her consciousness from Bell's sound attack, if not dying directly!
The unkempt woman is a team leader of her respective demonic sect after all. She might've lose to Levi when it comes to artifact and his whole battalion of ghost, but she wasn't any inferior when it comes to natural talent and ability.
"Ugghh~~ Sound attacks are very nasty! But don't think that it's enough to defeat me!" The unkempt lady exclaimed and threads appear on her head, covering it like a helmet. Pinkish aura also covered it.
And much to Cole's surprise, that pinkish aura was made of Fate-Energy!
In addition to cultivating Corpse-Energy, the unkempt woman unexpectedly had another method and could use Fate-Energy!
This means that the said woman didn't control the three wolves through their minds but more like control their life and fate using mystic thread!
And in the next second, as though the unkempt woman felt the threat, she started to transform...
Her face quake and change its color to black hue, her eyes increase to four pairs and her mouth turns demonic with rows of sharp tooth... Four pairs of bone spears sprouted from her back...
It wasn't before long and the unkempt woman transform into a human faced demonic spider!
If Cole is not wrong, the unkempt woman also had a special physique, just like his Immortal Regal Phoenix Special Physique!
Her transformation only happen for a second and was instantly finished.
But the moment she finished, Virgo appear on top of her, her wings is widely spread and releasing waves of greenish Time-Energy!
"[Time Field]." The same with her cold face, Virgo chanted her skill with cold tone!
