figuring out a new plan

After calming himself down he started thinking....

"Should I take a gamble and create a golem suit, by compressing the earth to the maximum of my power and making it as big as possible. 

Along with the help of the golden sphere, I can last for a long time in the black smoke... 

The problems are the wild beast and how far the black smoke exists.. 

If I get attacked and lose my protection for even a second, I don't think it would be good... and that thing that just appeared above the smoke, if I meet something like that there won't be any chance..... 

I will start some experiments, along with the search of the borders for any less dangerous paths or clues.... "

Even though he knew that the humongous monster didn't seem to be interested in him, He was determined to wait it out for some time, to be safe....

.....

A month passed by, he covered about 50 percent of the boundary and he made many new discoveries.

There were two types of monster in the smoke, the first kind were different kinds of snakes and the second were animals red in color with a bloodthirsty nature.

The red monsters were aggressive and attacked any moving thing in front of them. 

There were 2 blood beasts and 4 snake beasts in the nearby surroundings, both sides engaged in fights every now and then.

Both sides were equally matched because the red beasts were more powerful than the snakes and more aggressive.

He never saw the humongous monster again after that one time, he was greatly relieved about this.....

.........

One day he saw a red bear with a single horn on its head fighting two pythons. 

After fighting for some time the bear found that it was unable to kill the snakes as they were fast and slippery.

So it allowed one of the snakes to bite and swallow one of its hands, which gave the bear a chance to grip on the snake's tongue. 

After catching it by the tongue the bear started pummeling it with its other hand, while still taking a beating from the second snake...

After killing the first snake and getting injured seriously, it still fought the other snake and bit the snake to its death. 

When the fight ended the bear had lost one of its hands, bones were broken and protruding out of its side.

Still, it broke open the head of the two snakes and took two brown colored orbs, and limped away…

That scene was still etched in Sam's mind, as a person from the modern world. He was new to this gory and savage ways of the jungle, where the strong eat the weak... 

In a way this was the true nature put forward in a direct manner, rather than the same nature hidden in the modern society...

He had experimented with the Earth golem he had created, he could control the earth golem in the 300 meter area.

But within one hour the golem would turn black and corrode.

After the time limit the golem  turned into the black soil which became one with the black earth... 

Once the golem went out of the border, it could not come back in. So he could only observe using spiritual sense.

He even made the golem move into the area of one of the snakes, the result was it couldn't even take one hit from the snake... 

So he put the idea of creating a golem suit and going out on hold.. He had to find other solutions.

All this while the Evil sword didn't make any move, it didn't even leave his dantian.

But from time to time it would absorb energy from his dantian. 

He had almost forgotten that such a thing existed inside him ....

He was also coming up with other ideas like killing one of the beasts and trying to figure out how they could survive in this smoke. 

But to his bad luck, he saw the two pythons getting corroded slowly after death.... which proved that even the animals inside the smoke will slowly corrode and disappear after their death due to the effect of the black gas.

But after more than one month of searching he found something, a ray of hope...
