Chapter 713: Phantom Eagles

'Is that for real?'

Ajax was shocked by the system notifications in front of him and rubbed his eyes and checked once again.

'Ding,

Spirit beast name:- Phantom Eagles

Strength:- Rank 4, Rank 5.

Skills:- Phantom rush, Eagle storm, Phantom claw…and soon.

Information:- Phantom eagles can only live in flocks. Each flock has exactly 1000 phantom eagles. They can even kill a mid-rank 6 spirit beast or level 5 elite general realm cultivators while staying in the flock.

The information that appeared in front of him was about the complete flock of phantom eagles and the thing that shocked him the most was the information.

He thought that the 1000 phantom eagles were just some kind of secret cultivation technique; however, he didn't expect that they were the spirit beasts that lived in flocks of the 1000s.

'If the projection was able to summon that many phantom eagles, then it means that Elder Ramon must have 1000 phantom eagles. No wonder, he was called as Eternal nurturer,'

Finally, Ajax recalled the title given to Elder Ramon and nodded his head.

Eternal nurturer, as the name suggests, he could nurture anything. Be it a plant or spirit beast. As long as it is rare and useful for him, Elder Ramon would work on it for years to nurture it.

'It's getting interesting,'

Nevertheless, Ajax felt excited as he muttered, 'Spatial blades'

He only used 2500 units of the essence of nature as he felt it would be enough to kill them; however, he was wrong and not a single spatial blade was able to injure them, not to mention killing them.

'Holy heavens'

'How can my spatial blades be unable to injure them?'

Ajax was completely shocked by the earlier scene and hurriedly dodged their incoming phantom rush.

'Looks like there is some kind of barrier around them,'

Ajax was able to notice a thin barrier around them when he dodged their attack by an inch and started thinking of a method to clear the round.

'Why should I kill them? Instead, I can just kill their master, right?'

All of a sudden, Ajax changed his thoughts from the phantom eagles to Elder Ramon's projection.

On the projection's face, he was able to notice a little tired look which gave Ajax a small hope in clearing the hall.

He guessed that controlling 1000 phantom eagles is not a small thing and Elder Ramon was also maintaining an imaginary barrier around the three batches of the phantom eagles.

'That's it,'

Finally, he decided what to do and started working on it.

As long as he could kill the master, the contract spirit beasts would be killed along with them. So, he clenched the bloodlust spear in his hands and summoned his shadow clone.

'You look after those phantom eagles,'

After ordering his shadow clone, Ajax rushed towards Elder Ramon with the bloodlust spear in his hands.

'Heaven's destroyer spear...activate,'

When he was within a special range, he directly transformed the bloodlust spear into the heaven's destroyer spear, whose destructive power is comparable to a legend grade weapon.

'Swoosh'

The white shining spear pierced through the wind as it reached Elder Ramon within a few seconds.

"Got you,"

'Puchi'

However, unexpected to Ajax's exceptions, just when the spear was about to pierce through Elder Ramon, he disappeared and appeared behind Ajax and stabbed with a long green coloured sword.

"Don't get fooled by your enemies when they show you a slight weakness,"

Elder Ramon revealed a cunning smile as continued to say, "Better luck next time in killing me, Kid."

'Puchi'

While saying that he removed his sword and disappeared from his place before appearing at his earlier place.

'Thud'

Ajax fell to the ground with a thud as he looked at Elder Ramon with a surprised look on his face.

'Master,'

Necros hurriedly rushed towards Ajax; however, he was stopped by the flock of phantom eagles.

'You are not bad, kid. You just need to enter the general realm and I would have had a difficult time to deal with you…..,'

'Puchi'

Elder Ramon nodded his head at Ajax's battle prowess; however, a shining spear came out of his abdomen before hovering about Ajax's body.

'I guess, I don't need to wait till next time to kill you,'

Ajax revealed a slight smile before summoning back Necros.

Soon, Ajax's body started disappearing from the battle tower and appeared outside the battle tower.

On his face, there was a visibly tired look on his face.

"Ajax, you are too powerful,"

The moment Ajax appeared, all the personal disciples said the same thing repeatedly making him even more tired.

"Everyone, stop bothering him; instead, go and think what mistakes you have made and what you have learned from the battle tower,"

While Ajax was surrounded by the young cultivators, the guild master's low yet loud voice resounded in that area making all the young cultivators silent.

"Yes, guild master," 

All of them nodded their heads and they were embarrassed by their earlier actions and quietly started walking towards the small caves in the distances.

The guild master didn't ask anything about Ajax's various skills, techniques and weapons and at the same time, he warned others not to ask him any questions fearing that it might anger the powerful cultivator in Ajax's dream.

In Esmund's secret realm, these caves are the guest abodes and in those caves, the essence of nature will be pure; however, the purity is not compared with Elder Ramon's secret realm.

"Wait for a second,"

Just as they took a couple of steps, Elder Esmund asked them to stop.

Hearing his words, all the young cultivators stopped and looked at Elder Esmund waiting for him to complete his words.

"Take these crystals,"

While saying that, he threw some blue coloured crystals at the young cultivators and by the time they knew what had happened, a single crystal was lying in their hands.

"As long as you crush the crystal, it will help you remember everything that happened in the battle tower. So that, you can easily find your mistakes,"

After explaining the use of the crystal, Elder Esmund turned towards the guild master and all the vagrant cultivators started discussing something.

As for the young cultivators, they became excited and hurriedly rushed towards the caves and selected a cave before entering it.

Among them, Levi was also present. Just like Ajax, he killed the guardian in his first level; however, at the same time, he also died.

So, basically, he became a suicide bomber and killed the guardian in the hall along with his own life.

…..

"We clearly underestimated Ajax's battle prowess,"

After the young cultivators left, the guild master recalled how Ajax killed Elder Ramon's projection in the battle tower and said an excited look on his face.

"Yes...even though my projection has only level 1 elite general realm strength, it is impossible to kill it,"

Elder Ramon revealed a bitter look on his face while replying to the guild master.

Even though he didn't receive a slight backlash after his projection was killed, he was a little depressed.

"I think, after the champion's contest, we need to take Ajax to 'Him',"

Finally, the guild master replied with a serious look on his face and all the vagrant cultivators nodded their heads agreeing to his words.
