Path of Absolute Transcendence

Chapter 68: 68. Echos



Kai searched for a long time, but he didn't find a single living being on his path.

'Something is wrong with this place.' Kai soon realized the problem.

The fog started affecting his mind, and he had been walking around a circle for the entire time.

'But why did it affect me?' Kai thought about the reason. With the existence of Will Power, he should be able to find the difference, when he is under an influence, but Kai didn't find any influence on the fog.

Soon, Kai found out the reason after an investigation. The fog didn't affect his mind directly; instead, it affected him using his sense of smell.

It is odorless, and Kai wasn't able to find it, after getting inside his body, it easily confused him.

'Why are these terrifying mists on the periphery? Is this forest sentient and put this fog in it to protect it from invasion?'

Kai thought about the reason,but he didn't find any, so he decided to leave the problem and go inside the forest.

This time, he didn't circle the same place and started navigating the forest.

"Do you want more power, wealth, or women? I have everything with me. Come on, ask; I will give you anything you desire."

While walking, he heard the sound of these tempting echoes. But he ignored them and continued walking.

'Seriously, why does that sound childish?'

After walking inside for a long time, the fragment reacted for the first time.

'Finally, I found a clue.'

The fragment is pointed in a certain direction, and Kai needs to move in that direction to find another fragment.

'Ahh! I had a bad premonition about this!' Kai's intuition suddenly kicked in. He knew there was danger in that path, and that was the reason he felt uneasy.

'Maybe I should leave and find the other fragments first.' Kai thought about leaving the place, but considering that he didn't know the location of the other fragments, he decided to risk it.

Kai walked in the direction shown by the fragment. After walking for a while, Kai saw a huge ape sleeping on his path.

'I know there may be danger on the path, but I didn't expect it to be on this level.' Kai complained.

The huge ape on his path is called Thunder Ape, known for its speed and strength. It has the bloodline of Titan Ape, one of the behemoths of the Beast Kingdom.

It was also a Tier 4 beast. Kai left the place without even turning back. He didn't want to disturb the ape and get killed.

The ape can kill him without even lifting its hand, so Kai doesn't want to mess with that.

'So, how should I pass this thunder ape? Maybe I should circle the entire forest to find the treasure.'

'It seems I don't have any choice.' Kai eventually concluded after seeing that he didn't have any choice.

Kai went back and started making a long round around the forest. On his way, he encountered a lot of beasts, but all of them were killed by him before they could even make a move.

Kai finally stumbled on his first challenge on his path. It was a group of ice wolves, and the pack leader was at the Tier 3 high stage; the remaining ones were at Tier 2.

'Okay, it should give a little warm-up.' Kai thought excitedly.

He didn't fight a single one to his heart's content after coming here, so he itched for a good fight for a long time.

Kai used his Will Manifestation ability to form a sword and went straight at them.

The Tier 2 wolves used an ice blast at him. Kai didn't change his path or slow his speed; instead, he used the Will shield to block all the incoming attacks and accelerate his speed.

Seeing the enemy coming near, the leader personally took action to save his minions. It gathered an aura around its mouth to make a powerful attack.

'Do you think I will let you do that?' Kai thought and used his Will Manipulation and Will Manifestation simultaneously.

A large fireball appeared behind the leader wolf and struck its head. The wolf fell, and its head cracked a little. Blood splattered on the ground.

Kai didn't give any chance and reached the Tier 2 wolves. They were able to react when he suddenly arrived. Kai used his sword intent on his Will sword and swung it.

His speed wasn't visible to the naked eye; the wolves weren't able to react; they could only run away in desperation to save their lives, but it made it easier for Kai, and he took all of them without breaking a sweat.

"It was the easiest fight I ever fought in my life." Kai mocked the leader, Wolf.

The leader wolf didn't care about its minion; instead, it got angry at Kai's words.

It became huge by activating its bloodline power, and an icy aura started permeating around it.

"You know I don't like cold temperatures, so please turn it off."

Kai said this and used his resonance with the surroundings. All the fire elements in the surrounding area started getting hotter and hotter.

The cold air permeated by the leader wolf was extinguished, but the hotness didn't decrease a bit; instead, it increased to a level where a mortal would die if he arrived here.

The leader wolf also started to feel uncomfortable and pounced towards Kai.

Kai didn't move a single bit and smiled while staying in his place. Just when the wolf was about to come near him, a sharp horn pierced from the ground into the abdomen of the wolf leader.

The wolf escaped the fatal wound with its timely instinct, but it wasn't able to completely dodge it.

"See, no matter how much you struggle, you can't make me move from this place," Kai said mockingly.

The wolf became furious and started attacking him without any injuries, but it was useless since Kai appeared near it and was killed with a single sword.
