The Story Never Ends

All the flowers here whistled and their petals ejected one by one into the air. When he extended his right hand towards one of them, he felt like he had touched the sharp edge of a blade.

"As I thought," he muttered as he saw a small gash on his hand.

"Swish..swish…"

The petals began flying around him in a circular arc with a tremendous speed causing tornadoes to appear. If it was anyone else except Davion here, they would have already been minced into meat paste.

"I can't stay here any longer and have to find a way out." Although he was strong enough to stay here, he would surely get grinded to death steadily.

"Baphomet Summoning" Like Aiden, he used the ability of his axe.

However, it was completely different from that time as a huge phantom of the Baphomet emerged behind his back and two small children with wings were flying in its sides. Not only this, but rather it was much larger and radiating varieties of colors.

"Go!" he yelled, and he swung his axe forward.

The two children clasped their hands and from them, a strong wave of energy was released which slowly spread around him.

This energy clashed with the petals and as a result, he was protected for the time being. While the children were busy, the Baphomet had already elongated its hands into snakes and made a way for him ahead.

"Pretty good. This weapon is not as bad as I thought. Maybe Aiden was too weak to bring out its full potential," He smiled and rushed out from this area.

"Explode." Before leaving, he didn't forget to blow it up. He believed that it would cause some damage to Julia.

"BOOM"

A terrifying explosion took place and as he thought Julia was indeed hurt.

"Damn, how dare he do that?" She cursed as she faded a bit more due to that eruption. Currently, she was sitting cross-legged on her lotus and absorbing the aura emitted from it. This would have helped her recover her soul Qi but now it didn't seem to be so effective.

"I found you."

While she was in this state, she heard his annoying voice once again. She looked in that direction and saw him approaching her rapidly.

"Woman, you can't run now." He took out his halberd too and was prepared to end this for once and for all. Thus, he slashed towards her with both of his hands.

Two multicolored energies came from his weapons and they reached her while combining on the way.

She had a solemn look on her face as she felt how strong this energy was. So, in response, she channeled her spiritual energy into her lotus. The petals instantly closed and covered her whole body.

"Bang"

The energy crashed on the lotus and it was flung hundreds of meters away. Nonetheless, it didn't crack, and Julia seemed to be protected.

"Hehe, I didn't know that it was a defensive artifact too." Davion laughed as he was impressed by it. Not only could it cast a lifelike illusion and attack but it could also defend. He became happy because it would definitely belong to him soon.

However, his laughter immediately came to a halt.

"How dare she?" He saw her flying towards the sky in her lotus. He couldn't believe that she would try to run away.

So, without wasting any time, he chased after her.

"Crack"

The illusion abruptly cracked and broke in the blink of an eye when that lotus reached a certain distance away from the ground.

"Did I return?" Davion found himself back inside the isolation created by the staff. But he didn't get the chance to relax as he caught the sight of the lotus moving towards the staff.

"Don't tell me.." he panicked and tried to catch her as fast as he could. But he was too slow to reach her.

The petals opened and Julia straight away grabbed the staff. The moment it was caught, the white light surrounding them disappeared at once. This didn't end here as she put it into her spirit ring and escaped.

"What the hell!" He had his mouth wide open in shock. It was unimaginable. How could the isolation vanish this easily?

"No. I still got a chance," He thought of a plan and went towards the place where he had left Leyla. It was a hole that he had created by smashing the ground. Then he transformed back to his human form and left with his soul. As for his body, he let it be there. This was because he had to be careful if someone else came here and did something to his body.

"Although I'm in my soul form, it would still be difficult. After all, she has that overpowered artifact," he was filled with jealousy.

"Haiz, let's forget about it," He shook his head and used his Mind-eye.

"This…" his mouth curved as his smile grew wider and wider.

"Haha, it looks like she forgot to hide her traces in a hurry. I can feel her breath." He chuckled and dashed off in a certain direction.

***

"Wew, I've escaped. I can't sense him with my divine sense."Julia sighed in relief. But her heart was still beating wildly due to fear. She didn't even know how many miles she had flown to. Not only that, she finally realized how Aiden might have fallen.

"But there is another problem now. I don't know where this place is." She gazed at the landscape ahead and saw a strange island surrounded by water where sparks were generated frequently. However, she couldn't see inside it as the lightning falling around its perimeter was so heavy that the golden core cultivators would turn into dust in a jiffy.

"I'm having a bad premonition here. But there is nothing else I can do. I can only enter." She had spent a huge amount of her soul Qi on the way. As a result, her soul looked transparent and was in a precarious state already.

So, she had to rest somewhere and recover her soul Qi quickly. Thinking about all these things, she proceeded towards the island. Bolts of lightning rained down on her directly, the moment she entered inside. Nonetheless, she remained unscathed as she was still inside her artifact.

"My God! I can't believe such a beautiful place existed in this Secret Realm." After reaching there she became speechless with the scenery of this place. She saw plain grasses and plants growing here. Along with them, she saw traces of animals and birds.

It was her first time seeing some lifeform existing in the Secret Realm except for the guardians. But this was not what surprised her but rather the huge trees that were hundreds of meters tall. Especially, the one in the middle seemed to be even bigger. This tree absorbed all the lightning falling down which resulted in the island becoming like this instead of being rocky and barren as outside.

"Let's descend first and find a safe place to restore my soul Qi." She didn't even dare to use the artifact to fly anymore since every bit of her Qi was valuable now.

She landed on the ground and scanned everything with her divine sense. Soon she found a good location and went there at once. It was one of the huge trees where a small hole could be seen in the middle.

"This should be it," She muttered and set foot in.

Afterward, she sat on the ground in a lotus position and took out some pills from her spirit ring.

"However, these might still not be enough." Since one couldn't ingest the pills in their soul form, they would have to steadily refine it from the outside. Thus, it would take a long time and won't be as beneficial as usual.

Thinking about this, she took out some rare materials of heavens and earth that could help her recover much faster. She felt her heart pricking when taking them out.

"Everything is gone and it's all because of him. Just you wait. I will definitely have my revenge." She would never forget this incident. Although she could leave instantly after using that talisman, she would get caught if she went out in this way.

Not only that, she didn't even have any energy remaining to take over someone else's body. As for the body prepared by the emperor, it had long been destroyed.

When she was about to begin, suddenly she heard a childish voice coming from outside.

"Mother, are you here?"

"This.." Her expression changed in an instant.

"Are there humans here too?" She was confused as she didn't sense anyone around with her Divine sense. While she was pondering, she heard that voice again.

"Mother, I found you."

"Eh!" She exclaimed as she saw a child entering inside. It was a male who looked to be about eight years old. He had short blue hair, purple pupils, and a strange tattoo covering half of his face which made him look extraordinary.
