The Primal Blood Demonic Dragon

Leopard staggered just after coming out. Even back lower limbs have been pierced with spikes through ending upto in its belly. Which is limiting its movements.

"Its back portion have gone through most of the impact."

’Master, you should check it’s lair after fight.’

’What took your interest suddenly.’ Gin wasting no time, moved at back of leopard and thrust his palm back to back on spikes making them going even deeper inside leopard.

Leopard’s scream echoed as it tried to move away from Gin but it was generally slower than him before. Now even more can’t lose extra hostility. It turned hundred and eighty degree to attack but Gin already moved with its movement of turning around.

It can’t get away from Gin nor can attack him. Eventually leopard stooped moving after constant harassment and excessive blood loss. It’s blood regeneration is still active even after leopard stopped moving and dropped on ground but even that couldn’t keep up with rate of which Gin made it bleed with help of spikes.

Finally Gin finished it with few more hits not wanting to waste any more time.

’So what is inside its cave.’ Gin sprayed water on leopard to remove all the blood while looking at the direction of cave.

’Things that will help increase overall force after a while. And something that will improve your physique even further.’ Musa kept mysterious not spilling even one name, making Gin more curious and loosing his interest even in corpse of the beast that painstakingly hunted.

"Let’s check out what is so special inside." Gin stepped inside the cave after collecting the corpse in bracelet.

"So many beast corpse!" Gin was astonished seeing literally small hill of dead beast.

"Master, this shadow leopard might have gone for hunting spree to stock food to last quite long time, just after detecting danger few days prior." A soul body materialised beside Gin.

Gin nodded his head absent-minded, still looking at stack of beast bodies.

"Master!"

Hearing Musa’s shout Gin looked away from the heap and looked at Musa, he was pointing somewhere.

"Elemental source fruit! and so many!"

At front is another heap of plants, fruits and herbs of various grades stacked together piled up.

"Master, no need to search for soul-body reconstruct materials anymore. All needed materials are here!" Musa almost wanted to leap directly inside the heap of materials which is clear from intensity of his soul body fluctuation.

Gin agreed nodding while looking around further inside the cave for source of light inside cave. It is too bright here inside, which is not normal.

Looking at his behaviour Musa understood what Gin was thinking. After all it is normal reaction seeing cave so bright.

"Follow me." Musa floated further inside while Gin followed behind him knowing he can’t find the reason anytime soon all by himself.

Cave became brighter and brighter as they kept moving inside, with finally only falling short of few points from brightness during daytime when they reached small pond at the end of cave.

An ethereal looking still water, transparent to the extreme, glowing light-blue-green illuminating and reflecting everywhere around the walls of cave.

"Seems quite deep."

"Maybe."

Hm! "Can’t your spiritual sense pass through the water?" Gin really is surprised at Musa’s uncertain reply.

"No" Musa straightly denied with very calm expression while his eyes on still water.

Gin looked again at pond and brainstormed his memory for a while trying to remember anything resembling the pond water.

After a while

"Is it pure water elemental essence?"

Musa was surprised Gin could even think of that but looking at the pond he felt it is natural come up with that name.

Holding his chin Gin once again entered into analysis mode.

"Then is it....."

"No." Musa denied every name Gin came up with, four times in row.

But Gin was set on not getting his help after five times failure.

"Is it essence energy in liquid form?" Gin asked this time with some uncertain tone, not being sure about it himself. After all pure essence energy is rare enough. Let alone such big pond filled with liquid essence.

Musa smiled this time while looking at Gin. "What do you think master. It is amazing right!" He spread both of his arm while looking at pond "So much essence liquid. A literal small force can be built with geniuses as foundation with this amount."

"Those matters can be discussed after leaving this trial star. For now we have to seal this cave until we return later." Gin had almost forgotten the objective of hunt because of such surprise findings.

Musa kept watching while Gin collected all beast corpse, alchemy herbs-plants, fruits with very quick pace. ’Is end of sudden boost of power coming near.’ If so he could understand what Gin was trying to do until now.

After clearing everything and knowing essence liquid is not possible to be moved by his current capability Gin sat infront of pond and meditated.

One hour later he stood up letting out steam from his nostrils.

Not wasting time to even greet Musa, Gin placed his palm on cave ground and sprout started growing all over throughout the cave. Taking back his palm he walked out of cave while Musa followed him.

While leaving pure energy kept coming out of Gin and merged with ground beneath him. Meanwhile sprout didn’t stop growing and have become small trees by the time Gin have reached the entrance of cave.

Coming outside Gin once again placed his palm on ground and release massive green burst of energy covering the cave fully.

In a while cave have become garden filled with lush green trees going upto height of cave ceiling.

Still Gin didn’t remove his palm and energy turned darker this time. While ground cracked at places inside cave and water came out, washing everything with it, be that smell if blood from corpses or scent of various material herbs and fruits.

’Hoho master, you aren’t taking any risk huh! Really fully clean and precise.’

"Let’s go, for next super beast." Turning back Gin indicated Musa to leave.

Musa turned ball of energy and went back inside his residing place.
