"Damn…..this Pain" I cursed in my heart. Earlier, I felt dizzy. Following that, now I'm having head-splitting pain. I clutched my head thinking don't know what to do next.
I started to massage my temple to relieve some pain. I mumbled by thinking, "Looks like the pain is not going away sooner." Thinking about it not going to help me. So, I focussed on the Black Tree Monster.
That sound is a passive ability of Black Tree Monster. Earlier, while escaping from that spot. I found an open space quite a distance away from the Black Tree.. So, I decided to take some rest here.
While Zack was taking a rest here. The atmosphere around the Black Tree is quiet down. The Branches no more swayed. Now, there is no difference seen between the Black Tree and Normal Tree.
The Scariest thing is the Black Tree appeared like a Normal Tree. A Terrible Monster in disguise.
A few minutes later. After that cut. The Black Tree Monster didn't continue to release the eerie sound. That terrible sound is nothing but the scream of the Black Tree Monster. It released the terrible sound due to pain.
The eerie sound in turn acts as a passive ability to cause mental attacks. It got frustrating Now, the Black Tree Sensed, no one is around here.
It didn't expect prey to cut down its parts. Now, it's become vigilant. Next, time if the prey dares come closer to it. It will use all its parts to kill him at one go.
Meanwhile, Zack started to put up a tent.
It's good that Black Tree Monster is not going anywhere. I can take this time to think of a suitable plan. Now, I know why Uncle James selected this spot.
This Monster is the perfect Training partner to me. After setting up the tent and placing sensors around it, I felt cozy, as I lay down on the bed to conjure a plan.
Several thoughts run through my mind. I don't know about the Monster's weakness. If I had forehand knowledge about it, I could have used it to kill that Monster.
Furthermore, the Black Tree Monster has different abilities. Having an injury at back, so it's impossible to kill that Monster right away.
Finally, I came to the conclusion. I'm going to practice Sword Moves on that Monster. Especially, the third Move. It will be a good long-range practice. After deciding that, I exited my tent.
I took the Black Sword from the Storage ring. And I dashed a little closer to the Black Tree Monster. I was at a safe distance not going anywhere near to its branches.
I'm planning to attack the body of the tree. "Trunk" I commented in my heart.
After done observing. I held the Black Sword in a vertical position. I took a deep breath and started to perform the third move.
The Sword Rune in the consciousness started to flicker. Wasting no time, I used the lightning energy in my Dantian immediately. The lightning energy started to cruise through my vein. After having weeks of training.
Now, I can control the flow of lightning energy. Without causing any damage to the vein. I transferred all the lightning energy onto the Black sword.
A violet colour particle is detectable around Zack. At the moment, the Black Sword in his hands is getting lightened up. Now, the Black Blade is brimming with lightning energy.
From the memories of the technique. I knew I had to choose a focal point to discharge the energy. I turned on my perception ability. It will be helpful for me to notice any sudden movements.
Then after charging up, I gripped the sword using both hands in a horizontal position. I took aim at the trunk of the tree. I focussed on the focal point. Wasting no time…
"Bang …. Bang" thunderous reverberated the area.
A violet colour blast liberated from Zack's Sword. The blast was so fierce that, it went like a bullet. In a second, the attack land a hit at the trunk of the tree. Where Zack was aiming earlier. The attack took a hit at the exact focal point.
It is detectable that the targeted area got eradicated. I saw smoke rising from that spot. It was so fast that, it took a moment for Black Tree Monster to release.
Following the attack, "Screech" an eerie sound again started to spread the area.
"Success" I commented in my heart. While I dashed towards the tent. Earlier, I felt nervous. I thought about the range is not being enough. Now, I'm glad that the attack reached the target.
Though, at the current level. I cannot execute the true form of the attack. Like the man from the memories who obliterated the mountain with a single move. But, I'm satisfied with having another trump card.
After reaching the tent. I took a deep breath. After that attack, I didn't even take a closer look at the target. Because I know the Monster would release that strange sound again. I don't want my headache to get worsen.
I looked at my Sci-Fi watch. Two hours more till mid-day.
If I do many attacks at the same focal point. I felt that, in no time, the monster would die. If it's any other monster. I can aim at its head. But, when comes to Black Tree Monster.
I don't know my choice was right or not. Only by doing many attacks, I can find some answers.
"Sigh" a huge sigh left my mouth. I'm thinking about doing many attacks. But, I forgot about the main issue here. I don't have enough energy in my dantian.
Now, I can only do one attack with it. Now, I'm frustrated. In these times, I wish to have a fire element. Then it would make my job easy.
When comes to lightning, it's impossible to cultivate here.
This Black Forest is not suitable for lightning elements. Having no choice. I decided to perform one last attack again. Before quitting.
A few hours later,
"The destruction around the targeted area got widened" I commented in my heart. I'm sure if I do many attacks in the same region. The destruction range would spread. In no time it would kill the Black Tree Monster.
