’It’s coming!!’ Davis instantly thought and without even waiting a single second, he ran in the direction of wherever it saw.
He didn’t know what was in that direction, but he certainly knew it caused his avid stalker to go restless and attack him.
Davis gritted his teeth and summoned all his strength to run at an incredible speed. He slightly glanced behind to see it plunging down at him with numerous other vultures in a formation.
’Shit! Hunting in a formation?!!!’ He extended his soul sense to the direction he ran in, and as he did, he sensed a group of people heading his way.
"100 kilometres?!" Davis’s Dave changed! It would at least take him 5 minutes to reach that distance even with his current speed!
An unprecedented level of seriousness flashed across his face as he stopped running and turned to look back at the vulture as he stood his ground.
He summoned a black spear that shined with a purple glow at its end.
Lightning sparkled on the spear blade, crackling and roaring while he tightened his grip on the spear while a silvery aura spread around the shaft from his arms.
Upon using Tyrant Aura Amplification, he murmured, "Berserk Change..."
Blinding light erupted around his body as a silvery aura around him glowed with mighty valour!
The vultures were already less than 5 kilometres away from him, ready to surround and make him mincemeat in a few moments.
"Celestial Needle Ocean..." He murmured again as a sinister grin appeared on his face.
Swirling currents of a pure thin line which looked liked needless formed above his head. The pure light of needless shot towards those vultures who were below the Grand Beast Stage.
Bird cries echoed miserably as the huge kettle of vultures had their souls miserable pierced by the needless.
The Ferocious Vulture angrily roared, easily blocking the area of effect technique and headed towards Davis with bloodshot eyes.
Davis shot towards Ferocious Vulture as he made a wide swing. His spear and its talons clashed as a metal sound rang out while he plunged down to the ground from the force as he spewed out some blood.
His body was heavily impacted while the spear flew out of his hands as a result of the torn muscles in his arm.
*Boom!*
As he crashed on to the ground while dust spread, the Ferocious Vulture roared in rage!
Davis had killed its whole family. How could it not be angry?
Blinded by its rage, it plunged down again as it extended its talons.
Davis could see it approaching with his soul sense. He quickly formed a Sacred Piercing Lance and threw towards it just when it was a few metres away from the dust.
The lance shot forwards, but it was blocked by the extended talons, causing it to shatter into nothingness.
"Sacred Soul Shield!" A barrier formed around him as he jumped sideways to evade its sharp talons.
Half of its momentum was struck down by the Sacred Piercing Lance, making it possible for him to evade it in the nick of time.
A grin slightly appeared on his face when a huge wing came behind him and sent him flying as it struck, causing his barrier to break.
Davis spat out a mouthful of blood as he flew, his soul force was spent upon from the two days of vigilance. His hair flailed wildly in the wind, and his face still had a slight grin on it that hadn’t faded into the abyss yet.
....
In the near distance, those few people who Davis spotted with his Soul Sense were dressed in various robes and armours. They rushed across saddled on top of their mounts which looked like well-bred mighty horses.
The one leading the group was a woman who looked beautiful and appropriately curvaceous in the precise areas.
Her eyes looked sharp while below it was covered with a veil, making her features unknown. Her velvet-coloured hair graciously danced, giving her a dashing appearance.
She wore a black silky robe which accentuated her sharpness and mysteriousness two-fold when seen with the perspective of strangers.
"Big Sister! Our target has noticed us and it seems to be following a... child?" A man next to her commented with a bewildered expression on his face.
"Hurry! We have to kill it before it can devour that kid!" The woman shouted, her voice had a tinge of worry mixed-up.
She noticed the kettle of Ferocious Vultures plunging down on him in an attempt to devour him.
"Not good!" She jumped and glided through the air with her eyes narrowed up anxiously.
Below her legs, a hazy path of wind formed, making her quickly sped up to the distance.
Cries of worry erupted as the others all shouted for their big sister to return, but it was of no use. So they had no choice but to quickly follow behind her in pursuit.
Suddenly, their eyes widened as they all saw the numerous vultures, drop-down lifelessly onto the ground like flies that had been mysteriously attacked.
They were all startled, "Big Sister, stop! There is something weird about that kid!"
The woman stopped and hesitated for a moment. She looked at the Vulture who was maddened and the kid who was going to die under its talons.
She gritted her teeth and rushed towards the boy, "This is our chance to kill it!"
By the time she neared, the boy was sent flying by the maddened Ferocious Vulture.
The woman snapped get finger and made a subtle finger movement, causing the flying Davis to slow down from the impact.
Davis slightly relaxed, seeing that these unknown people were going to save him.
He used the barrier to defend while simultaneously using the impact from the wing attack to be sent flying almost 5 kilometres away.
Adding on their arrival, especially the veiled woman who quickly dashed towards him, his plan worked out.
Supported by the formless wind, he stepped on the ground as he spat another mouthful of blood while he felt his mind go slightly muddled from the backlash of the soul barrier being broken, though it mostly came from the exhaustion of constantly using his soul for over two days.
