CHAPTER 61

Elcio is someone that he decided to nurture after seeing how loyal he is, in fact, if not for the fact that he wants to nurture more warriors for his current family, he would not accept any warriors under him.

Suddenly, he senses something, and so does Leon.

Without hesitation, he transforms into his Thunder Cloud Dragon Form and roars as he rises to the sky.

Leon grabs his tail and jumps into his head, and the two of them go to the sky.

The sudden turn of events stuns everyone.

The one who reacted faster to the dazed warriors was Elcio, who stood up and shouted. "Enemy attack!"

In the sky, thousands of flying birds with purple feathers can be seen flying towards their camps.

Cleo opens his mouth and unleashes a dragon roar, but is destroyed by a piercing cry.

A giant eagle creature appears above him.

[Warning! The host is currently facing a true supernatural lifeform! Disengage! The system repeats! Disengage! ]

Cleo does not know why, but inside of him, something is telling him to fight.

The system notices his mood and can only become silent as it takes control of Leon once again.

The bird actually looks at him with disdain, clearly indicating that it has intelligence.

It spreads its wings and flaps them, creating a hundred wind blades.

(Elemental Transformation)

His body becomes illusionary, but even with this, he takes damage with every wind blade.

This shocked him, and the bird raised its head and once again let out a piercing cry.

It was a sonic sound type attack.

BOOM! He crashes to the ground together with Leon, the latter was riding on one of his clouds, trying to cut the wind blades but failing because of the power behind them.

He coughs out blood as his transformation returns to physical, he raises his head with indignation, a roaring voice is screaming inside of him to not give up, his blood starts boiling, and the Gemstone of Life starts glowing brightly inside of his chest.

ROAR! He flies once again, and Leon follows him by riding one of the clouds.

The commotion finally attracts the attention of nearby camps, who are shocked.

"Little brother!" "Little Cleo!" Flare and Margaret's expressions changed as they sensed the aura from the purple eagle.

They morphed into their soul blessings, one was a silver phyton, and one was a red bird.

The purple eagle easily dodges Cleo's attempt to attack, an eagle is the predator of snakes.

The Thunder Cloud Dragon might not be a snake, but its form is slightly similar to it, making this fight quite disadvantageous to Cleo.

It grabs him and tries to tear him in half, but Leon leaps into its head and stabs its eye, only to be slapped away by one of its wings.

Cleo deactivates his transformation after realising that he is no match against his opponent in his current form.

(Dragon-Tiger Transformation: Dragon X Tiger)

The purple eagle was surprised when it sensed him escaping its clutches.

(Tiger Pounce)

His muscles bulge as he grabs its talons and starts swinging it in a circle, the sudden pull catches the purple eagle by surprise.

BOOM! It was thrown to the forest.

Its flock is furious and is about to attack Cleo when they hear its furious cry.

They instantly freeze and stop on their tracks, and they decide to target the humans below.

Many of them had eyes on Leon, who was injured by the slap earlier.

If he had not been caught by the clouds before Cleo deactivated his Thunder Cloud Dragon Form, he would have died and returned to the Soul Slot.

'Danger!' His enhanced instinct screams to him, he tries to move away but is too slow to completely dodge the attack, a large chunk of his left side was destroyed in an instant, the expression of the two girls becomes pale, he roars as he swings his tail to the side but hits nothing.

As his blood drips to the ground below, he looks at his opponent, who is looking at him with eyes full of mockery.

[Warning! The host's opponent has the ability to control wind elements.]

'So this is a true supernatural lifeform, even if it is not using its supernatural ability, its strength is already so strong!'

His eyes gleam dangerously as he charges towards his opponent without any fear.

The purple eagle was surprised by his courage, but it still was not alarmed.

Wind gathers around it, creating a whirlpool of wind.

With their distance, it is confident that he will not reach it.

(Dragon Flight)

His speed instantly increased, and he clenched his fist hard before throwing an absolute haymaker on its eyes.

The blow interrupted its attack.

He continues punching it's eyes but is slapped by one of its wings.

He can only harm it by using it's attitude towards him, but it seems that even this is not enough.

Blue Rage Monkey Transformation, Silent Matis Sword, and Armoured Deer Armour.

He summons three soul blessings to assist him, they might not increase his strength greatly since they are not on his soul slot, but they are still considered an asset for someone like him.

Even though he summons three soul blessings, only the Silent Mantis Sword can be seen, any physical transformation that he uses only buffs the dragon-tiger transformation but does not change his current form.

His heart starts beating at a much faster rate, he immediately knows what is happening, it is his talent [Overwork] being activated.

With one of its eyes shut, the purple eagle no longer underestimates its opponent but still has the arrogance that it will win, as the difference between them was just too massive.

Meanwhile, both Flare and Margaret were preoccupied by two supernatural level purple eagles, but they were clearly fake supernatural, they seemed to be in their juvenile phase.

With his dragon flight still inactive, he can only rely on his instinct to follow the movement of his opponent.

The purple eagle was using its speed to fly around him.

'The difference between us is just too large; with its speed, my dragon's eyes are unable to see through its weakness!' He grumbles inwardly as both he and the system try to lock on the figure of their enemy.

[Go down!]

The system's warning was slower than his reaction, as he already dives down, he feels something sharp passing through his head.

'That was too close for comfort!' He screams inwardly.

Meanwhile, the purple eagle was confused as to how he managed to escape its attack, according to the speed at which it was flying, that attack should have cut off his head already.

'I really am glad that we managed to fill up my genetic enhancement before meeting this baby!' He wipes the cold sweat from his forehead.

SCREECH! A loud cry was released.

He easily solves the mental attack, but he acts like it is affecting him.

The purple eagle spreads its wings and swings one of them, creating a giant wind blade.

"F*ck!" He cannot believe that his opponent would be so cautious after losing one of its eyes, he thought that it would approach him and try to end his life, but it seems that just like him, the true supernatural lifeforms also developed their sixth sense as long as they were focused.

The purple eagle starts swinging its wings, now, not only wind blades but also sharp feathers fly in Cleo's direction.

They are too fast.

It seems that the purple eagle gave up on its lethality and decided to just increase the speed of his attacks by decreasing the size of his attacks.

Even with the weakened version, the attacks are still causing heavy damage to someone like Cleo, who is already gravely injured.

BAM! He tries to block the talon of the purple eagle, but under the barrage of the sharp wind blades and feathers, he fails.

The talons nearly killed him, if not for the fact that his one complete wing flaps himself out of the sharp edge, he would have died.

BOOM! The impact causes the ground below him to cave in.

He might have dodged the sharp edge of the talons, but the power is still there, he was thrown to the ground by the force.

He starts coughing out blood once again, this time, the amount is clearly greater.

He quickly realises what happened, and he cannot help but bitterly laugh.

His internals are injured, this time, it is not light.

"Wretched creature! You dare harm the descendants of my family!" Suddenly, an aged voice was heard as a white-haired person wearing rather modern clothes appeared.

"Lord Widowmaker, are you making a move?" This person was not a stranger to the Oriend Family, he was known as one of the oldest supernatural warriors of the family, but because of his age, he rarely makes a move.

The injuries that he suffered in the past prevent him from ascending to the second realm.

Actually, according to some private documents from the Oriend Family, during hunts on supernatural lifeforms, many would be too injured to ascend, causing them to wait in the first realm in hopes of recovering or finding a treasure that would at least help them ascend.

"Old bxstard, be careful, that thing is not like those inferior supernaturals, it can be considered one of the superior ones." Another person arrives, he is a rather fat individual.

Besides him was a thin guy continuously coughing, as if his life depends on it.

He realises that the situation is dire for the pillars of support of the Oriend Family, who are now making a move, and there is a high chance that all of them will die in this battle.

If they disappear, then the enemies of their family will definitely not let this chance go by, but unfortunately for them, drastic times call for drastic needs.

He shouts at the top of his lungs. "We can win! Bring me food!"

Elcio and the flare guards instantly know what he means by his order, without hesitation, they grab the bird that was killed by Leon and run to his side.

The three old warriors are confused as to what they are doing, but they do not reprimand him, after all, in their eyes, holding back such an entity all alone already earns him the highest praise.

Just as Elcio was about to cook the bird that he brought, Cleo grabbed it and put it into his mouth, ripping it to shreds.

With the flesh torn off from the bones, it instantly entered his stomach with the help of Hungry.

Elcio's eyes sharpen, and without hesitation, he transforms into his hound form.

With a loud cry, he breaks the bones into small chunks.

Cleo immediately grabs them and throws them into his mouth, disappearing.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining an advanced gene! Due to the limit, the gene enhancement is converted into gene power in order to unleash the full power of the genetic lock.

[Current level

First Gene Lock: 1/100

[Second Gene Lock: 0/100]

He is surprised by such notifications, but he decided to ignore them first.

Right now, he needs to recover, the flesh and bones of his destroyed side are already starting to grow, but the process is anything but pleasurable.

The pain made him grimace, and this is already him trying his best not to make any reaction.

His pain tolerance is already so great that he can endure having his sides destroyed and still continue fighting.

He did not expect that the pain from his recovery would be ten times or even greater than getting injured.

The three old warriors seem to be experienced in fighting against true supernaturals, they even have a title for them, superior lifeforms.

The purple eagle that was fighting against the three warriors freezes, accelerates, and creates some distance from the three.
