Shining Duos

Barely turning around, Elder Wayne faced a whirling dark white tiger claw. Speeds such as this he could've initially easily avoided was now near impossible to even guard against.

'CHI!'

"ARRRGH!" Right through his shoulder, the claw viciously tore a hole in it. White slaughtering tiger sudden attack made the executioner cloud chains flying towards the four youths disappear.

With one claw embedded in the elder's shoulder, another one came roaring down, ready to claim his head. But Elder Wayne fiercely bit his tongue at the last second jolting himself enough to strike the tiger square in the c.h.e.s.t, pushing him a little bit away while the claw only slashed his face.

White slaughtering tiger arms now were fully coated in tiger fur, and his face grew more beastly qualities. Although half of his fur coat was missing, his whole body got mangled up.

Even then, in a wild and critical state, he still has enough power to sneak attack Elder Wayne and severely wound him.

"Ah, shit! Your Qi, it's still rampaging." Gritting his teeth, hard Elder Wayne put a hand to his hole open shoulder in an attempt to stop the chaotic slaughtering Qi.

"That will only be the start of the torturous hell you all will experience!"

An out of nowhere turn of events stunned the three girls, but Kazami only yelled to them while still looking forward; "Ignore them! More coming, hurry up!"

Kazami shout quickly brought them back to reality as they finally manage to reach the hole and, without a moment of hesitation, flung themselves out of the cave.

"Damn it! My f.u.c.k.i.n.g treasure! If I'm dying, you will die as well!" No difference from a frenzied beasts Elder Wayne shrieked, jumping towards the tiger. Crazed as well, white slaughtering tiger matched him until three bodies crash-landed right before them.

"The f.u.c.k?!"

"The hell?!"

Confusion and screams ranged out the two because the bodies were the spider woman, the scorpion, and Elder Michi! However, on their bodies, disgusting looking black sludge was pulsating all around their bodies.

Neither side moves, but in that very second, suffocating dark, terrifying feelings shrouded their heart and mind. This feeling was so sudden, and it has gotten the two to whip their eyes around everywhere, trying to locate what was this dark feeling.

'BOOOM!'

What they didn't see coming were the bodies exploded in black sludge covering them whole with it.

"AH! WHAT IS THIS!" Wailing as if he were experiencing torture, Elder Wayne's body was dissolving under the black goop. Despite being near death, this was still the body of a Heaven Ruler cultivator, beings able to shatter mountains! And yet under the black sludge, they crumble like paper.

White slaughtering tiger body was significantly more stringent than Elder Wayne because of his slaughtering Qi and beast abilities, allowing him a few extra time to see an ambiguous all clothed black youth strolling over.

"To think I almost let myself get in that dangerous situation, but I still failed..." This youth was the one thought initially to abandon Shade. Only now, his demeanor majorly changes, walking upright behind his back, smiling viciously.

"W-w-ho" Struggling to breathe out a word, the tiger got caught short when black sludge jumped right into his mouth.

"In your next life, remember to work for a different and stronger boss, or you'll meet the same tragic fate." Mocking him, Shade enjoyed watching the look of horror on the tiger face as dissolved under the black sludge.

Even on the highway to death, he couldn't also sense what realm this youth was as if he had no power.

'But to think we will get four interesting potential subjects soon. This planet shall receive a huge wake-up call shortly.' Chuckling and thinking to himself, Shade only glanced at the opening in the cave before transforming entirely into black sludge.

…

Right when the cave slaughtering was transpiring, Kazami, Kuzumi, Lun Yuo, and Brenda were all sailing straight down towards a lethal white lake. The aura coming off from it screamed to their senses certain death if they even touched it.

"Right out of a death trap into another one, what shit luck..." Kuzumi chortled out, as they all had no more energy to even try to protect themselves from the water.

Lun Yuo and Brenda's eyes were wide open, gradually losing hope as no miracles could possibly save them at this point. It was a significant drop-down, and everything felt slow motion for them descending towards their death.

They were mainly rag dolls at this point; however, Kazami mind went to overdrive near death once again. The strange phenomenon of communicating with Kuzumi through bloodline still ranged inside his head continuously, giving him a wild idea.

Kazami refused to naturally give up and concentrated harder than he ever attempted before. His train thought hastily went on to 'If I could even do that, maybe I can imagine for something to protect us.'

Kazami, after a couple of seconds, raised what little energy he could scr.a.p.e up into raising his arm and striking himself puking out purple blood.

"Argh! Don't resist!" The girls couldn't even question what he was doing when a purple barrier covered them all, and a purple aura surrounded Kazami.

'Splash!'

Sinking down fast in the white color lake, the pressure from the outside still affected the girls knocking them all out. Although it works, all of them were safe inside the lake and not dead, at least.

Kazami mind and body could barely hold on feeling extremely light-headed. All he could at this point was to let the lake currents washed them to wherever place it would end too. Movement from him was not an option at all now as he has to focus intensely to keep up the barrier.

In his mind, he prayed to the good fortune he eventually comes across a safe place.

His eyes struggled to stay open, but he couldn't keep them open for long until it shut completely; only his purple aura and barrier was still up.
