Insidious Root

In the center of the eruption.

The elongated root-like flesh shot toward Achilles at a speed that made his eyes widen in fear. It was even faster than what the Komodo dragon and the Kraken were capable of.

As the flesh root approached him, he knew that something terrible would happen to him even if only a small part of him came into contact with it, so he had to move away, now!

Channeling his essences, the Steady Heart released a subtle glow before multiple rock walls were raised in front of him, blocking the insidious root from reaching him.

However, to his dismay, the root instantly shredded through the first three thick layers with ease and only lost a tiny bit of its momentum before regaining its speed. On the contrary, it appeared that the thing was only headed faster than before.
