Chapter 431: Legendary Path's Might



Minutes later, Sylas was still standing on the icy lake. However, he now had one Arctic King Bear in his right hand and an Arctic King Cobra in his left.

Blood dripped down from his fingers and drizzled into the lake, forming crystal shards of violet blood as they froze over.

Both were Level 19s... and they didn't last very long in his hands at all.

Sylas raised up the Arctic King Bear and squeezed down.

PA.

Its head shattered into a rain of blood. Though, while it looked like he had done it with pure strength, it was instead because of Winter's Edge.

In a region of such high ice Aether concentration, the Gene Talent was far stronger.

What Sylas also noticed was that it flowed much more smoothly in the past, likely because of a combination of his Dual Class Constitution and the fact he had gotten rid of Blade Aura, giving him far more space to maneuver.

Slowly, Sylas raised up the Arctic King Cobra.

The snake writhed, but its eyes were clearly pulsing with fear.

Sylas had been gone for a quarter year, and it was clear that while these beasts were more intelligent than normal, it wasn't to the point of truly being human-like.

Though, honestly, even for humans, such a time was already enough for them to forget. Sylas' Will bore down and the Arctic King Cobra had its ability to resist fall to nothing.

[Arctic King Cobra (FFF)]

[Level: 19]

However, this person had neglected one thing.

The King Character of the Arctic King Cobra.

The Arctic King Cobra was similar to the Clandestine Apes, but for completely different reasons. The Clandestine Apes adapted to any extremes, but the Arctic King Cobra suppressed

all extremes.

Meaning...

Sylas pressed a finger to the forehead of the Arctic King Cobra and closed his eyes. He

breathed in slowly and exhaled.

If one could see inside the body of the Arctic King Cobra, several of its Genes were being rearranged, shifted, and changed. At the same time, Genes from the Arctic King Bear were rising up and fusing into it along with Sylas' own personal Ice-Poison Runes.

He had already felt a moment of clarity when he used Insight on a Mesmeryx. But compared to

that, it was leagues easier on a Common Beast... to the point where the complicated Genes that Sylas couldn't even begin to manipulate in the past were like clay putty in his hands.

And in just three hours...

A subtle smile curled Sylas' lip. It was that very same giddy feeling he used to get as a child when he completed a difficult puzzle... long before they became too easy for him to care about

anymore.

The feeling of accomplishment was something he hadn't felt in a very long time.

What truly made him happy wasn't the fact his Intuition had worked so well. No. The reason

he was so happy was because he was correct.

When he first saw the list of Legendary Paths, he hadn't been sure which to choose. But after reading the cumulative total of all possible Beast Master Paths, he came to the conclusion of choosing Were-for-the-Invincible, One Kind For Me, and Taboo Bond, not because they were individually powerful, but because he knew that together they would be a truly monstrous

combination.

And now, he was proven more than correct.

Without the Insight Talent One Kind For Me gave him, it would be impossible for him to see through such complicated Runes at his level.

But, without Taboo Bond, even if he could sense those Genes, he wouldn't be able to directly

change them.

And even if he had those two Talents, without the Hibernation Realm, it would take years for

his new Arctic Emperor Cobra to adjust to its new evolution.

But now... it wouldn't even take five minutes. With a wave of his hand, the Arctic Emperor Cobra vanished.

It was time to return to the Grimblades.
