Cornered

Right now around 20 rank 4 beasts are surrounded Magnus is all front. Behind their circle there are two rank 5 beasts. If any normal cultivator with level 30 were to stand here they might have fainted by the sheer amount of force from the two kings.

Desperate Moment......

Magnus stands in the middle of the beasts who are all looking down at him. Magnus looks at every single one of them.

Soon everyone became silent. Both Magnus and the beasts all are in a pindrop silent. This is the moment before the tide. This is the moment calm before the storm.

And in that instant Magnus disappeared. The next moment he appears before a level 40 beast. The spear in his hand started shaking with the Qi as he shot down the head of the beast.

"Meteorite shoot"

The terrifying speed of the attack bent the head of the beast backward. Magnus didn't wait for the beast to respond inside he jumped towards another beast and attacked it.

Right now in Magnus's head he has already calculated multiple times, to be exact 1 million times. In those instances he finds out that the only way for him to win is to run. If he remains in standing he will die.

And his plan works perfectly. Magnus took the first attack as a result the beasts were disoriented. He took that chance to attack a few of them and started to cleverly traverse encircling but he himself knew that it's not gonna be easy.

Soon the beasts started to organise again and started attacking Magnus. He dodged multiple shots but it's still impossible for him to dodge all of them. Some attacks penetrated his body on multiple occasions.

Soon the two level 50 above beasts joined the fun. More than 60% of the beasts are still behind and they didn't encircle him properly. That's the problem with big encirclement. If you attack in one part the rest of the part will just sit idly or will take time to merge.

So Magnus attacked first. He knew that beast will take time to reorganize so in that time he will make his escape. But it didn't go as he planned. The attack soon started to become a bit too much for him to handle.

But Magnus didn't stop. The calculation in his head increases bit by bit. He also let his avatar control his cultivation and soon the Black Hole started to absorb world Qi tremendously.

"Ki ki ki ki ki.....Do you think you can escape? Pathetic. After we kill you we will also kill that girl and present you as a secrefise to our progenitor."

The Kind Serpent used its tail like a drill to attack Magnus. An attack of a level 50 beasts. The sheer amount of pressure is enough to faint a level 20 cultivator. Magnus used his Qi shield to maximum.

"Impact."

It's a like a breeze. Magnus is thrown away with the force of the attack. But he soon stands up.

"You are something. I never thought a level 30 cultivator to be this strong. You manage to withstand Serpents attack. But don't think you'll be lucky this time."

The second level 50 beasts, also knows as Tyrant Ape. Jumped towards Magnus and send a punch. And it was at that time Magnus made his move.

All this time he has been defending from the nonstop attack of the level 40 beasts. But when the level 50 beasts made their move, the lower ranking beasts decided to wait.

Magnus found a way. To be precise he already knew that they will behave like this. So when he defended the Serpents attack he already made preparation for the Ape's attack.

Ape shot his punch from above. As the punch is just about to land on him, Magnus sneakily let out some small rubber balls shape objects. They are simply looking objects but the moment they made contact with the ground all if them released a thick white fog and mist that surrounded the entire area.

Magnus throw a bunch of them and soon he disappeared in the mist. The last attack of the ape didn't hit anything. The ape itself is surprised and his attack somewhat interrupted and that's the split second Magnus used.

"Damnit. Everyone spread your senses. Anyone who finds him will be reworded." Saying that the Serpent soon took a mouth full of air in its body. It's planning to disperse all the mist by blowing them away. But Magnus is not a new born baby.

He run. He run faster than anything. Because of his extensive training on controlling the killing intent right now it's very hard even for a level 50 beasts to sense him.

Soon the beasts started to blindly chase him. The Ape and the serpent did notice him for a few time but he disappears soon after they noticed him.

"Damnit. Ape bastards use your fire breathe. Burn everything."

Serpent king ordered the Ape but he didn't listen.

"The progenitor wanted us to kill him not kill the lower ranking ones. Do you want to be crushed to death?"

Magnus heard some important talk but he didn't care about them right now. The mist will last about 3 more minutes. Magnus already reached the last area. All he needs to do is cross the serpent king who is still blowing air in his mouth.

At this moment Magnus stopped. In front of him is a medium size snake standing.

"What did you think boy? Did you think that I wouldn't notice that you'll be going towards the cave? I have two body. I purposely let my bigger body do that so you will let you guard down and try to run this way. In the end I am more genius than you human. Hahahahaha."

"Sighhh." Magnus let out the air from his lungs. The serpent king also made its move, "Die."

And just as the serpent king thought that he win, "Shaaaaaaaaaaaa" Magnus took a long breathe. In that second Magnus's 6 senses increases. The surrounding environment starts to move slowly. Everything is moving slowly. This is hyper State. One of the ability Magnus learned that he can perform after he started cultivating. Hyper State is a state where his brains computational power increases so much that in instantly touch the last limit. As a result the everything around him start to move slowly.

"Magnum Opus: Infinite Dash...."

In an instant Magnus disappears. The snake is about to hit him but the next second it hit only an after image. It took a second for the serpent to realize but it's too late. Magnus already crossed the mist and went directly towards the cave.

"Noo... He's in front of the cave. Attack him." Serpent king shouted as all the beasts started to move. The mist also cleared pretty much and the outline of a man running towards the cave is visible to them.

"Attackkkkkk.....Killllllll...."

Magnus didn't look back. Behind him there are countless beast and also the level 50 beasts. Magnus quickly reached the entrance of the cave and immediately throw another series of Mist bomb.

"Don't even think about it?"

The serpent king started to blow the air away. But Magnus didn't throw all of them in the outside. He throw them in the inside too. After that he dived inside the cave.

"Damnit After him."

Serpent king is angry as he let his minions to go after Magnus. But the moment the entered the cave, "Booooom" The entire cave and the ground shaked.

A fire works started visible in their eyes.

"Damnit this human is throwing bomb at us. Don't go inside like this. " Saying that the serpent king started to blow away the remaining mist. "Let's wait here for 5 minutes. It looks like mist will last for 5 minutes. Let's see how he can run. Surround the entire cave and the mountain. Increase your sense so that they can't even dug through the ground."

---------

Magnus escaped the encirclement. Serpent king may have think that he predicted Magnus would go through here. But Magnus predicted that serpent king will wait for him there.

Everything went according to his plan. Magnus let out his trapped breath and immediately all the exhaustion attacked his body. But Magnus hold himself strong.

The enemies didn't gone. They will be here in 5 minutes. And all he need is one minute. Magnus started to move towards the deepest part of the cave. Soon he saw a girls outline. The girl has a worried face as she is sitting quietly in a corner of the cave.

The deepest part doesn't have any light but the moment Magnus went inside Anna realised that it's him. She quickly run towards him and hugged him tightly.

"I thought something might have happen to you. I was so worried."

Magnus realised that she is really worried as her entire body is shaking in fear and worry. Magnus hugged her tightly to clam her down. "Don't worry. I am alive." Saying that he kissed her in her leaps.

Although it's a very subtle moment, that enough calmed her down. Magnus then let her go and soon started to analyse the entire cave.

"How long do we have?" Anna asked as she realised that they're not completely safe.

"2 minutes at best." they didn't talk much and soon Magnus started to analyse one side of the cave.

" What are we looking? "

"A door handle." Saying that Magnus went towards the wall and looked deeply towards a hole. He then put his hand down the hole and started to feel the inside.

"Found it." Saying that Magnus took out a two things from his ring. He handed down one to Anna, "This is a family heirloom kind of thing. It's easy to activate. Activate it."

Anna didn't ask much and took the artifact from him.

Magnus then put the second thing inside the hole. Inside the small hole in the wall has another hole. It's a sort of keyhole. Magnus inserted the object in the keyhole but soon a voice is echoed in the air.

"********Subject is not eligible to activate the account. Please wait and return stronger.*********"

Magnus and Anna both heard the mechanical voice that echoed in the cave. Magnus then took out the key and again inserted it. But this time he wait for a while before inserting and soon a the same voice is echos again.

"*****Subject is ready. Please Welcome. *****"

"****Initiating protocol, initiating subject verification, initiating control modules, initiating account transfer.*****"

"*****Please create a new account.******"

Soon the wall in front of the lit up. Magnus didn't wait a single second and quickly put his hand in the wall. Soon the screen lit up again. And another time the voice is echoed in the cave.

"*****Welcome. We registered you DNA. You can put you name later. The previous account has been transferred successfully.******"

"Robert I activation is comple...." Anna is forced to stop speaking. Soon I. front of her eyes the cave wall is curved open from the middle. There really is a door here.

Magnus quickly took her hand and went inside. The moment they went inside the door shut down from behind.

-----------

A few minutes later as the serpent king is about to went inside he heard a terrifying shout. All the beast and even the serpent king and other five level 50 beasts kneeled down in fear.

"Gggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" A light blue ray of energy shoot towards the sky. Soon it hit the barrier that the man in black created.

In an instant the barrier that even Rugbir a seasoned cultivator couldn't break started to shake incredibly. Soon the barrier and the energy attack went in an intense struggle. But after a few minutes of showdown in the sky the barrier is pierced open and the energy rays shot towards the sky.

The serpent king and other four beast looked towards the sky. The anger of their progenitor is making them shake in even more fear. What happened they don't know? But they're boss is angry and it's true.

----------

Elsewhere everyone in the northern land is watching the shining light in the sky as the entire land is illuminated by the light.

Soon the barrier surrounding the northern land is started to crumble down after the light in the sky is disappeared.

Soon a calm wind started to blow the entire Northern Lands as everyone realised that a terrifying strome is approaching.
