Chapter 233
In the underground room, puddles of blood were everywhere on the ground .
Noah was sitting among them, quietly cultivating to aid his recovery .
He had just vanquished the assault of the Excavating worms and had used again some of his potions to refill his centers of powers .
'There were rank 1 and 2 specimens this time . I'm getting closer to the leader . '
He thought .
The last ambush featured weaker beasts, which meant that the number of rank 3 specimens had been drastically reduced .
'Maybe this is another trap though, I don't really know how cautions I have to be against something with a Bloodline inheritance . '
The knowledge about that rare case was limited, something like that had happened only a few times for it to be successfully studied .
'I should dump part of the corpses somewhere, I don't really have any use for them . Also, I have four space-rings to inspect . I should probably go deeper in the lair before doing that . '
He had fought twice in that underground room, the traces of battle had become too evident .
He wasn't afraid of the other cultivators in Daniel's group, if he met them, he would simply kill them or lie .
Yet, he was sure that the pack of worms was planning another assault .
'I don't know if the rank 4 creature thinks as a beast or as a human . It's obviously trying to probe me but I don't know if its plan is to exhaust me or something else . I should probably spend a day or two hidden in a small cave to recover with my potions, using the "Breath" blessing now would be too dangerous . '
He had initially thought that the "Breath" blessing was his biggest advantage in that environment but he had to reconsider that idea .
He didn't expect for other cultivators to arrive, using that mineral would expose his position to them and facilitate their regroup .
'The worms aren't a problem but I don't think I can win against two cultivators as strong as that woman, especially if Daniel is one of them . '
The battle against Phoebe made him realize that his real advantage was still his Demonic form .
His technique was slightly superior to hers but he couldn't achieve a fast victory with just his martial art .
He was dealing with nobles older than him after all, they were powerful and well equipped .
'I need to save my mental energy and the liquid "Breath" in my body for the fight against the rank 4 beast . I've already spent too much of the latter . '
The mental energy recovered while the cultivator rested, it wasn't affected by the external environment .
However, the liquid "Breath" in his body depended on his dantian which was struggling to refill itself in the dungeon .
Luckily for Noah, he had a large accumulation of potion and pills which could help in any situation .
'Let's find that cave and rest . '
He thought, enveloping his figure with mental energy and moving toward a deeper part of the lair .
Meanwhile, a young man was running at high speed in one of the tunnels .
