BXBX NOVEL Chapter 907 - Trickery
He was even confident enough to step up a level, and forge an Ascendion ranked weapon.
However, before he could do so, he got wind of the news that one of the Soul Monarch\'s Guards had shown up near Liun\'s walls.
Because of that, Jason felt a little bit restless, and hoped that nothing bad would happen, before returning to Jennifer, who was still cultivating.
If something were to happen, he wanted to be with her as they could flee together at a moment\'s notice.
This was the most important, and Jason knew that everything would be too chaotic if they were to be separated while an attack was about to happen.
Yet, while returning, his Emperor Eyes perceived that many Mid- and even Late ranked Specta stage powerhouses were hurriedly evacuating the city, and advancing towards the presumed location of the Guard at the Peak of the Specta stage.
Somehow, it made Jason uncomfortable to figure out that just one of the 12 Guards was already at the Peak of the Specta stage because that indicated many things.
Either, the other Guards were equally strong, slightly weaker, or even more powerful than the guard, while the Soul Monarch was bound to be stronger!
As such, it was likely for the Soul Monarch to have entered the next cultivation realm.
Considering the news Jason had received from before, all of this meant that the wandering souls of the Yinar race had increased their cultivation base at a very rapid pace.
This was quite bad in his opinion, and Jason couldn\'t help but hope that this elevation of their combat prowess was a one-time thing.
If that was not the case, they were bound to face severe problems.
However, instead of thinking too much about this, he reunited with Jennifer, who had also heard the news about the Guard\'s attack.
Thus, she was already waiting for him and grasped his hand the moment he arrived.
A trace of worry gleamed in her eyes, but Jason\'s rather calm expression caused her worry to disperse.
He was not all that worried about the aftermath of today\'s attack.
Rather, Jason felt that the Soul Monarch was testing the waters, or pursuing a different goal.
This was the only logical reason he could come up with for the attack on only one Guard, and not everyone else.
There were not even wandering souls that had been prepared to attack them along with the Guard.
As such, it was a one-man attack, nothing else.
Just as Jason thought about this, his Emperor Eyes perceived faint traces of a crude Soul force, manifesting in a specific location not too far away from them.
There were only a few streets and the amassed Soul force fluctuations between them, and by inserting some moonlight transmuted mana inside the Emperor Eyes, he could see everything much clearer.
\'A Spatial portal manifested by a wandering soul!\'
The moment Jason understood what was manifesting just a few hundred meters away from them, he couldn\'t help but feel a little bit uncomfortable.
However, rather than witnessing the expected attack of Specta stage powerhouses that emerged in the center of Liun, he saw that a few dozen Ascendion stage beings emerged instead.
They were even wandering souls at the Peak of the Prismar stage that emerged from the portal, which astonished Jason.
He figured that all of the wandering souls near them were weaker than him and Jennifer.
It was something that confused him, but before he could make sense of it, the wandering souls seemed to have disappeared.
Even the Emperor Eyes couldn\'t detect them just a moment after they emerged from the spatial portal.
As such, Jason felt extremely uncomfortable all of a sudden.
This made him act instinctively as he inserted more moonlight transmuted mana in addition to divine energy in his Emperor Eyes.
He didn\'t want to miss out on spotting anything that might be important, or possibly even dangerous to them.
Because of that, he even used his Stigma to enhance his eyesight, which was the final means to see everything around him.
Fortunately, this was enough to perceive almost untraceable Soul force fluctuations of the wandering souls that had begun to rush through the streets of Liun as if it was their home ground.
This made Jason believe that they were well versed with the infrastructure of the city, and also what they were looking for.
Their path led them in three different directions, and all of the directions were ways towards the most important places of the city.
First, it was the warehouse, which was the place most wandering souls seemed to approach, followed by the dojo, where the majority of manuals were located.
As for the last place, it confused Jason a little bit as some beasts approached the Ninad beast realm portal that would teleport them to one of the planets controlled by the Yinar race.
The last destination could have multiple reasons to be chosen, but Jason didn\'t know the exact one.
However, what he understood clearly was the fact that nobody was able to perceive the appearance of the untraceable wandering souls.
If he was not wrong, they were invisible and could conceal their fluctuations nearly perfectly.
Even with the use of his Emperor Eyes, moonlight mana, divine energy and his Stigma was Jason barely able to perceive them.
With that in mind, he knew that the places they targeted would be raided, which was the worst that could happen.
Thinking about it for a few seconds, he couldn\'t help but look at Jennifer before he told her.
"I think we have to move around a little bit. There are quite a few problems we have to fix!"
Smiling lightly at Jennifer, Jason pulled her slightly towards himself, before showing a serious expression.
This didn\'t even allow Jennifer to think about denying his suggestion
Rather, it made her think that it was essential to move around.
Opening her wings, Jennifer indicated to Jason that she was ready.
Thus, they both took off from the ground and while flying through the air, he focused in one direction because he was unable to split himself either way.
With Spyro a few things were possible, but it would decrease the strength of his split-up individuals tremendously.
Thus, without doing anything that might kill him, Jason shot in one direction, allowing Petri to enter his soul world which increased the strength of his physique the most.
While charging up to the wandering souls he could only subtly perceive, he didn\'t even unsheath Byakur.
Instead, he covered his fist with scales and was ready to punch out at the wandering souls the moment he brushed past them.
Breaking their neck was as helpful as slicing off their head.
With that in mind, Jason chose the quickest way to eliminate all threats without wasting too much of their precious time.
This was the most important, and something Jason was doing.
He gave her a quick update including important pointers she had to keep in mind while continuing to fly, but she was unable to sense anything.
Because of that, the only thing Jennifer was able to do was to follow Jason.
This annoyed her, causing Jennifer to try focusing even more on the direction they were flying to.
\'I can\'t sense anything! Are there really beasts that can make themselves invisible, while concealing themselves perfectly? I cannot even hear their footsteps!!\'
