Chapter 628: Chapter 547 Their Secret Chapter 628: Chapter 547 Their Secret No matter what type of Guardian Spirit, they surpass the Western transcendent by several streets in specific applications.
This was Roger’s most direct feeling after experiencing it these past few days.
Guardian Spirits exist between solid entities and pure energy; they have no internal organs, flesh, or skeleton, yet they possess a certain degree of Spiritual Wisdom.
Over these few days, Roger and Higurashi Chika had been flying using paper butterflies created by Aoki Kazuo, while the other two directly summoned their own Guardian Spirits.
The Flame Tiger had the ability to fly, and the Divine Deer was nimble in its movements, moving quickly through the woods. Over a few days, the distance between the group and Michihiro Morita gradually closed.
If they picked up the pace a little, they might have the chance to encounter Michihiro Morita today.
They only traveled during the day and sought nearby caves to rest at night, occasionally encountering a few monsters.
None were as strange as the Hundred-Eyes Monster; they were all common creatures, but even so, they were not something that the others, apart from Roger, could easily handle.
The monsters they encountered were at least middle-stage Third Tier.
The power level of Everworld was far higher than reality.
In the real world, reaching Third Tier would be enough to lead the transcendent forces of a slightly larger city.
Here, though, it seemed to be nothing more than cannon fodder.
It is possible that the strengths of the wild monsters here are generally higher. One day, just before nightfall, Roger sensed a powerful presence from afar.
According to his guess, the other party was definitely Fourth Tier, at least as powerful as Green without using the Sword of Destiny.
Comparing the two, the world where the Privy Council itself exists must be similar to this one.
Such was the might of the Privy Council.
It seemed that the Privy Council might not lack the energy to deal with the issues of the real world, but rather, they simply didn’t care…
“We’re very close now.”
Yukiko took out the pendant. The surface of the red crystal stone was already covered with numerous cracks. After several days of use, the item was on the verge of collapse.
Moreover, once they were close enough, it could only give a vague indication.
She put on the pendant, the guidance of its form no longer needed for the journey ahead.
“There might be some danger from here on out,” Yukiko hesitantly said to Roger.
“I’ll be fully releasing the power of the Guardian Spirit. In this process, every living being nearby will be able to sense my location, and to the majority of monsters, this is considered a provocation.”
“I’m not sure what we’ll face; it could be far more terrifying than anything we’ve encountered before.”
“How long will it take?”
They felt Morita’s presence was very close, yet without a clear direction, simply searching blindly; it was uncertain how long it would take to encounter him.
They would be constantly in danger during this process, but if Yukiko’s method was indeed viable, it was worth a try.
“At most a single breath.”
Roger thought for a moment and then nodded.
“If we encounter danger later, you all should quickly leave and meet up with Mr. Morita. Leave the rest to me.”
They nodded in agreement, understanding that with their levels of strength, they would stand no chance against powerful foes.
Hearing Roger’s words, Yukiko no longer hesitated.
With a delicate shout and her arms crossed over her chest, restless flames burst forth from within her in the next moment, lasting for half a breath, during which Yukiko’s face turned ashen pale.
In that instant, she released all her power. Now, without the protection of Spiritual Power, her physical condition was about equal to that of a Demon Hunter Apprentice who had taken Green Herb Medicine.
The next moment, the assembled Flame Tiger roared skyward, its voice shaking the forest. Almost instantly, Roger felt malice from all directions.
It was as if the prey willingly exposed itself under the muzzle of a gun.
Yukiko’s body swayed, ready to fall, but a smile appeared on her face shortly after.
“I’ve found him; he’s over there!” She pointed her hand toward a place out of everyone’s sight, where two auras of the same origin merged.
Roger let out a low shout, and at the same time, the Sword of Destiny appeared in his hand. He stood, sword ready, as Quinn’s power enveloped the three of them.
Then, he released the Pale Blood within him.
This power, completely different from everything in this world, made him the target of all.
A creature with an eagle’s head and a human body descended from the sky. Before it could get close, Roger casually swung his sword.
Blood sprayed the sky as the creature was cleaved in two by Roger.
Immediately after, Roger saw a wild boar as large as a truck, with bristles as hard as steel spikes. The ground cracked open, and a flaming wheel-like creature rolled out with a fierce ghost face at the center.
Roger wasn’t particularly concerned about these monsters because he sensed a Fourth Tier fluctuation a little further away.
The world was far too dangerous. Although he could still manage the current situation, Roger was now eager to enhance his power.
While Roger was attracting the attention of all monsters with his Pale Blood, Higurashi and the others had already dashed ahead at top speed with the help of Onmyoji Techniques.
As time went by, Yukiko gradually sensed that familiar presence.
Soon, they felt the violent impact from behind them, indicative of the fluctuations caused by a Fourth Tier in battle.
