1308 Heavenly Samsara: Chapter 58

Chapter 1308

…

If Xin Ja was on the weaker side, then he would have already died. But even though he is weaker than his opponent, he still uses his brains in fighting.

He would not dare clash against that creature as long as he was not prepared.

"The spirit binding array is truly fascinating… I wonder if it works on stronger enemies…" he thought as he discarded the bunch of papers in his left hand which has now turned into dust.

These are the talismans that he had thrown while fighting the snake. He threw it to create a trap array that would seal his enemy's movements.

After the successful hunt, Xin Ja was able to gain more Ki energy as he greedily absorb them in his dantian.

In his absorption process, Xin Ja observe that there are traces of energy that he could not absorb. If he was able to absorb them, he could feel them entering his dantian but is unable to fill any gap in his vast empty pool of energy.

By this time after the harvest, Xin Ja decided to go to the town near the location of the dark forest where he is in. The place is called Aven town.

This town is near the dark forest. When the global catastrophe happened three years ago, Aven town was able to protect itself from the jungle outside because of a few awakened beings from the city.

Plus at that time, a military convoy passed by the town and helped in securing its people.

There are many who died at that time and the town has only been able to stand back up after a year of struggle in fighting against the beasts of the dark forest.

Now two years later, Aven town is well-known for being a trade town near the dark forest and tall buildings could be seen inside the walled town.

It is said that the town of Aven is one of the towns that have the strongest wall to protect its people.

Inside the town, civilization is thriving and one could tell that the people are living well.

The vehicles that look like vintage cars from the earth are not using petroleum oil as fuel but instead demon cores.

Most of the energy sources nowadays are using demon cores which greatly improved and enhanced the life of every citizen in every city or town.

However, besides using the demon core as energy, scientists discover that each demon core could also be used by awakened beings to slowly enhance their power.

But, absorption of such strong energy requires advanced machines to guide an awakened. If not, the energy from the core would kill an awakened if they are not careful enough.

The machines could automatically stop the absorption process and control the flow of energy.

It is said that only 1% could be possibly absorbed by an awakened and more than that, their bodies would have an adverse reaction.

So a single demon core of the lowest level demon would last and awakened for many months before they could fully absorb its power.

In the town of Aven, such technology is prevalent that sometimes the town is called the awakened haven.

The dark forest is a rich source of demon core, and many awakened like to come to this place to gather, hunt, and grow.

Of course, such a good prospect… comes with the danger and the risk of obtaining strength and power.

It was already nighttime when Xin Ja arrive in the town of Aven and a long line of awakened could be seen queuing up at the gate of the town.

Two high-powered machine guns could be seen on the side of the wall while soldiers donned in black uniforms are standing while watching the awakened enter the town one by one.

These soldiers are mixed with common and awakened but they wore the same uniform which makes it hard for anyone to create trouble here for fear of the awakened guard's power.

It is said that most of the awakened guards of the city are D and E level in strength.

As the queue nears the gate, Xin Ja noticed the people taking out their Union badges. When Xin Ja saw this, he suddenly frowned.

He did not know if the union is still looking for him, and also did not know if he is still being hunted like what he has heard. So when he saw that the union badge is being checked he wanted to turn around and leave.

"Do not worry my friend… take this…" a man who is standing behind Xin Ja gave him a badge.

Xin Ja scanned the badge with his absolute sense and saw no anomaly with it. So he held it in his hand and nodded his head to the guy behind.

"Thank you…" Xin Ja said.

"Hehe… No problem. This is just a minor thing compared to the help that you are giving us in the dark forest…" the man suddenly said.

Xin Ja was a bit stunned and then looks at the man.

"You might not remember me, but a few weeks ago… You saved me and my group from that demon monkey… if not for you, then we would have already turned into corpses." The man explained.

With a glad feeling in his heart, Xin Ja cupped his hand to the man.

He was able to enter Aven town and noticed that the town is actually bustling with people.

To call it a city is already an understatement with the huge number of people going to and fro on the street.

The night sky seems to have not affected the liveliness of the town as people trade and stroll around like it was daytime.

Xin Ja and two men walked towards a bar where there are people standing outside the entrance.

…

Xin Ja and the two men sit behind a round table while a tall and voluptuous woman walked near them.

p "What would it be for tonight gentlemen?" she said with a coquettish smile on her face.

"Ahhh… Merry… You've been getting prettier every day…" the guy name Peirce who was the one who helped Xin Ja greeted with a smile.

"Why thank you, Peirce…" she replied.

"The usual for me and my buddy here… Oh, this is my new friend… Xin Ja. Xin Ja... She is the owner of this bar… Merry the iron fist. Don't be fooled by her beauty now. Hehehe…" Peirce said while patting Xin Ja's shoulder.

Hearing Peirce introducing her to the handsome young guy like she was an amazon warrior made Merry frown.

She glared at Peirce who looks like a boorish man.

"Do not listen to that guy. I'm Merry and I'm a gentle person of course." She rebutted.

"So… are you going to have what they are having?" she asked.

"What are they drinking?" Xin Ja did not agree and asked instead.

"The usual bottle of ice-cold beer…" she replied with a smirk.

Xin Ja has not tasted the beer on this side of the world before so he nodded his head in agreement.

"Oh, and add a bottle of wine at that…" he added.

"Vintage?" she asked.

"Show me what you got…"

When she heard the calm and charming reply of the youth, Merry could not help but lick her lips and throw a flirty gaze, and then flash a naughty smile.

"You got it, darling…" she said as she swings her hips away from the trio.

This time, Pierce and his friend Grover gawked at the conversation between the two. They did not expect this jungle boy to be well versed with the ladies. He might look young but he has that swagger of a playboy while talking to Merry.

The blinking of his eyes and that handsome smile of his could make any woman who looked at him be attracted to him.

"Damn boy… You look innocent but I did not know that you have that player's blood on you… Hahaha…" Pierce chuckled.

The three of them talked and discussed while happily drinking the whole night.

Meanwhile, in one dark corner, several eyes are glued on Xin Ja and Merry could be seen talking to a man with a thick beard and red hair.

"Who is that new guy with them?" asked the guy.

"He is called Xin Ja… a weird name. But I think he resembles someone…" Merry said with a sly smile on her face.

Her usual coquettishness is now gone and a sly-looking woman could be seen standing next to the man.

"Hehe… So you've noticed."

"Yes, up close I could already tell who he is…"

"Adam Summers…" the guy said with a grin.

"Yes, the Summers in Ae city has sent us a message. They want him… dead." She said.

When the guy heard those words, he suddenly frowned.

"You know that the guy is a celebrity among the awakened that frequents the dark forest, right? If they knew that we did something to him, then we would face the wrath of the many…"

"Why are you chickening out? If we do this in secret no one would know…"

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

"In the city that would be next to impossible… In the dark forest, the more that it would be impossible as that is his territory…"

"Hehe… Just let the woman think… while the man does the hard job." She smirks.
