Seth’s mind was first hit with a feeling of impending danger, and immediately he used his soulsense to check the area, and just then, he felt a powerful qi just enter the range of his soulsense.

A terrifying qi was approaching, a qi the likes of which he was a little familiar with, while not the same, the terrifying qi and the residue of qi he had felt from the beast he had woken up in after his recent beatification, shared a certain property.

Due to the powerful chaotic qi surrounding it, all he could make out was the rough outline of a figure which was similar to that of Slowly.

Back when Slowly had stayed back on the tree despite his presence, he had thought of Slowly as really stupid, but it seemed Slowly wasn’t stupid, but really arrogant, if his guess was right, then the owner of the terrifying qi was Mama Slowly.

After being beside such a powerful being for a long time, the extraordinary qualities of his mother’s soul must have rubbed off on Slowly, and coupled with Slowly’s relatively high cultivation and arrogance, it was able to fight off its instincts to flee his presence.

He didn’t have to think much as there were only two options left for him with the approaching calamity, flee or flee.

Yep, that was right he had the option of either fleeing alone and dooming this town or fleeing with Slowly and putting his life on the line.

“Is there a problem master?” Sonia asked fearing there was something wrong with the food.

Seth came out of his thoughts and glanced at his just newly gotten pet, while he knew she was being all submissive to him right now because of her misconception of his power, she had still accepted to be his pet and he was all for disciplining a wayward pet if the need arose.

Currently, Seth had no way of healing her, but he was quite confident he could figure out something out with the help of the consciousnesses, and there was always Rose if everything else failed, she did say she came from some advanced civilization.

‘Besides she’s now my pet, I can’t be an irresponsible master”𝗈𝗏𝓵xt.𝗇𝓔t

He had planned to have a taste of her later today and maybe even stretch that asshole of hers, but this approaching beast was wrecking all his plans.

He really wanted to fight this approaching annoyance, but both he and his blood knew the end result, the approaching being could kill him with just a concentrated sneeze.

Seth abruptly stood up and grabbed Sonia by the ass, his hands having a hopefully not last feel of them,

“How long before your cultivation level drops?”

“4 or 3 months” Sonia nervously replied seeing his strange behavior.

“Master is something wrong?”

“Be a good girl and wait for me to come get you within the next three months”

Seth smiled and gave her a kiss seeing her confusion.

“A rank 8 beast is coming here in pursuit of me, I’m going to see if I can lead it away, so stay down here and ehhh prepare the town if you can,” Seth said, and with a flash of intense black lightning, he shot off.

…..

Sonia had felt like a bolt of lightning had struck her when she heard that a rank 8 beast was going to arrive here, there had only ever been a sighting of a single rank 7 beast in Lukta forest.

Areas with rank 7 beasts and above inhabiting them, always had grade 0 cities somewhere nearby.

Lukta forest was the only exception as its only rank 7 beast was a slow beast that hardly moved around, the thought of a rank 8 beast coming to Ukota left Sonia with dreadful scenes in her head.

She was just about to question him when she felt his aura spike with power and instinctively she immediately covered herself with her qi to protect herself from his violent qi.

She watched Seth shoot off, but was surprised at his average speed given how intense his aura had been, but just as she released the qi covering her, she was once again surprised when she felt Seth’s lingering qi.

Thrice she swept her spirit sense through Seth’s residue qi and each time she arrived at the conclusion that this was the qi of a cadet stage cultivator.

As a woman who had worked her way up to her current level of cultivation, Sonia had to be very smart in all she did, but today this same smartness worked against her as she found a jumble of thoughts flowing through her mind.

“Impossible I felt his soulsense yesterday, and even today in the library I confirmed that what he had was indeed soulsense”.

“Ranked cultivators can’t disguise themselves as cadet stage cultivators as their qi already has their soul or spirits imbued in them, so he can’t be hiding his cultivation”

“Could I have been tricked by this man, have I been put under an illusion?”

Filled with confusion and desperation for answers, Sonia turned and chased after Seth, but she hadn’t moved more than 10 steps when she froze as a terrifying aura washed over her, and she found herself trembling all over, unable to move an inch.

“Rank 8 beast” she silently whispered in fear.

….

Seth didn’t bother opening the doors or waiting for them to open, he smashed through everything in his path and finally came out of the temple for the first time since his entry.

He didn’t pay any attention to the warm morning sun but instead headed for the agitated Slowly, he pushed as much qi as he could spare into his soul sense and surrounded Slowly in his aura.

Luckily he was just in time as seconds after, a powerful aura fell on Ukota town, had he been a little late there was a high chance that the powerful aura would have wiped out whatever means his higher evolution state used to tame Slowly.

He could see several people who were just walking around the compound explode into pieces of flesh when the terrifying aura pressed down on them, so without further delay, he mounted Slowly, commanded it to take flight and immediately head west, out of the town and away from the approaching beast.

Minutes later, Ukota town was in the distance and the aura of the approaching beast had moved in his direction, confirming his thoughts on its owner’

“Why do all kids with tough parents always have to be arrogant, ” Seth said out loud with a chuckle.

“ha hah hahh, hah hah”

Seth laughed as he stretched out his hands, there was no need to lie to himself that he had only two options, there had been a third.

He had the option to use his soulsense and command slowly to quickly begin flying away.

This option would have kept him and everyone in the village safe, and allowed him to study his seals and fuck Sonia some more, but in the end, he had not chosen it.

Sure both he and his blood accepted that trying to combat such a terror was stupid and very futile, but no one said being chased by said terror wouldn’t be thrilling, the thought of making a mockery of this powerful beast by leading it around and then successfully escaping it while still riding its child whom it was after was just too much of sick exhilarating humor for him to resist acting out.

So here he was Cadet Stage cultivator planning to entertain himself with an angry rank 8 beast.

“Now let’s see just how awesome I can be “.
