That left him with the startled spearman, the thing that was flying towards them were the scarabs, from the information that they gave to Hentai, it seems that the two Pseudo Saints knights have used some kind of technique or treasure to increase their speed at incredible degree to the point that the scarabs weren't able to catch up.
Shadowslash knew that this would definitely be detrimental to his plan to slowly build strength on this part of the world but he wasn't that bothered, if the forces from the chaos world comes then he'll just release all of his scarabs and the recuperating One Hundred Poison Worm.
Two forces that are capable of killing Saints would definitely be able to deal with the army of the chaos world, the only thing he was a bit bothered is the fact that the pace of him helping the island recover from their chaos Qi infection would definitely slows down if more chaos beasts or knights arrive.
Bang! The spearman reacted but it was all too late as he felt his chest being stabbed by an extremely sharp object, knowing that he wouldn't be able to escape he decided to self destruct.
Angus have already chase after Shadowslash when he saw him charging towards Zeno but he saw that he was too late and felt the volatile energy coming from Zeno, he felt regretful but his eyes were now focused on his opponent.
If Shadowslash doesn't die from Zeno's self destruct then he would finish him off, his sword is now ringing with cries of killing intent, chaos Qi and sword Qi continue to surge towards his sword.
Shadowslash knew that he needs to act fast, without any hesitation he use his ability to devour the energy from Zeno's body, his eight fox tails then stabs themselves into Zeno's body to increase his absorption.
His dragon tail quickly coil itself to his target, Angus saw all of this and felt that the volatile energy that was flaring up from his teammate's body started to dwindle down.
Knowing that the self destruct sequence was cut off he attacks using all of his strength intending to kill Shadowslash even if it meant he would be killing his teammate.
Shadowslash knew that he wouldn't be able to dodge the attack so without any hesitation he gritted his teeth and his body hardens with his body cultivation technique, fortunately Zeno was bounded by his tails and with him as an energy supply he might survive the attack.
Swish! When the sword attack finally landed he felt a tearing and sharp pain coming from his back, he knew that his defence was cut apart and the sword Qi continue to advance, his flesh was slowly being cut apart.
He increase his absorption to offset the attack but since he was heavily injured his regeneration ability wasn't as fast or as great as before, when the sword Qi reaches his bones, his bones started flashing with mysterious golden light that blocks the sword Qi from cutting them apart.
Angus saw that his attack was no longer advancing and was prepared to throw another one, he put all of his energy on that earlier attack causing him to be exhausted, dishing out another one would be impossible in a short term.
Shadowslash knew that he only needs to hold on and just as he thought when the scarabs arrived Angus immediately sense an impending doom dawning on him, he looks at Zeno and the saberman and grips his fist before flying towards the saberman.
The scarabs chase after him, because of his earlier attack he was now out of gas and he could only use his essence as fuel increasing his speed but this means that he would no longer be able to advance unless he recovers his lost essence.
What he did not realised is that his aura only further increase the excitement and greed of the scarabs, Angus arrives at the side of the saberman and crushed something from his hand and he glows at bright light and they disappear.
Shadowslash now realised how the two Pseudo Saints managed to get away, it seems that he needs to regroup with Banjo to be able to capture the fleeting chaos knights bit first he needs to recover from his injuries.
He then orders his scarabs to help his clones taking down the chaos knights, he orders them to not devour the chaos beasts and only injure them and leave the rest to his clones, his injury needs large amount of medicine to recover but since there is none he could only use his ability to devour to recover.
Fortunately he had trained the Heaven Swallowing Technique to its peak level if not he wouldn't be able to recover from all the fight he had been through, after devouring all the life essence from Zeno, he decided to eat him, unfortunately he wouldn't be able to change his form right now because of the massive injury he has on his back.
He doesn't like eating humanoid form beings but this doesn't mean that he wouldn't, if the being is powerful enough to entice his hunger, then he wouldn't mind eating him or her.
There was only two clones left, if not for the scarabs arriving then there would be no longer any clones left, the two clones then brought the carcasses back to him, the two illusionary heads disappears.
Large amount of blood is still flowing out from his back, he ate on his current form, even though he is extremely fast, he wouldn't be able to devour an entire carcass whole.
He continue to eat while sweating because of pain, his consciousness continue to blink on and off because of the large amount of spiritual essence he used when he fought earlier.
The two fish were working hard to stabilized his soul with the help of Zeno's soul, after they killed him they immediately started devouring his soul, as a peak Xiantian Emperor Realm and an intelligent being his soul is much stronger and larger than anything that the two fish have refined.
The two fish also started to become bigger inside Shadowslash's spiritual world, and their level started improving and finally breaking through the next rank.
Shadowslash didn't know this and only felt his soul is recovering much faster than before, the Primordial Rune Scarabs have gathered next to him as the runes on their back started flashing in bronze light.
His devouring speed became faster and faster, the mountain of carcasses in front of him started dwindling down, Hentai had to work overtime to distribute all the energy he had obtain from devouring large amount of flesh.
Hentai used most of the energy to help him regenerate the flesh that was torn off from his back, because he needs to recover his weary body after devouring mountains of chaos beasts, he slept.
He woke up without knowing how many days it had been, but fortunately for him he had Hentai to ask.
It's been close to a month, he had been sleeping for nearly a month and according to Hentai he had only recover this quick because of the two fish helping him regulate his spiritual sense making it easy for Hentai to heal his body.
[Chaos and Harmony have rank up to Xiantian Realm, from the rank that this world has, they are Platinum Realm.]
His eyes lits up when he heard this but he became confused with the new term, he then asks 'Why do we need to make a new term for their cultivation rank?'
[Chaos and Harmony are spiritual elemental beings, they are much more suitable to use elemental energy, spirit Qi and Mana than using Xiantian Qi.]
Shadowslash understood this, Xiantian Realm would convert the spirit Qi inside the body and thd vital Qi to Xiantian Qi.
The stronger the body is the greater amount of Xiantian Qi would be used and the stronger it will become.
It is also the same for the spirit Qi because it is stored inside the cultivator's dantian forming a powerful spirit pool inside the body.
The two compliment each other very much but elemental beings doesn't have any dantian but their cores are much stronger than physical beings.
Shadowslash understood this and he became interested on seeing the change of the two fish, without hesitation he sat on a lotus position and his spirit body or soul appeared inside his spiritual world.
He saw the two carps leaping around the lake but this isn't a lake but his spiritual essence that they had been refining since they appeared inside this place.
Shadowslash quickly realised that the two have gotten bigger and their figures are much more vivid than before and the air of mystery that they exude have also gotten stronger.
He scans them to checkout their data
