Multi-Gene

Chapter 272 - An Ancient Monster



"Multi-gene?" The second elder muttered in confusion. Then he turned towards David with an expression of greed.

"I don\'t care what secrets you hold, when you die everything will naturally belong to me." With that, the second elder struggled to breathe. His condition was only slightly better gan Davids\'. 

And after a few minutes, he stood up strenuously and then with his hands that was still a bit intact, he stretched them out.

The staff that was on the floor a few meters away from him turned into nano swarms and flowed from the floor, into the second elder\'s hand eventually joining together to form a staff once more.

He then began to walk towards david slowly. Pressing a button on the staff, a sharp blade emerged from the tip, making the staff no different from a spear.

David watched on silently but his eyes looked as though he had given up. They were blank as though he was reminiscing on his lives. 

The second elder approached and then looked at David who had a blank, lost and hopeless look on his face. He could see gay David was riddled with wounds and it was even a miracle he was still alive despite all his injuries. He couldn\'t help but admire his will power. 

"Kid, you should be proud you forced me into such a state, you deserve to be called a genius. Remember the name of the man who killed you... Chen Mao." With that he raised the spear high which was normally light in his arm had become incredibly difficult to carry. 

"I had always wanted to kill a genius anyways." The second elder\'s eyes glinted with excitement despite the tiredness he had been feeling. It was as though he was truly excited to kill someone with incredible talent. 

He immediately stabbed down towards David\'s heart. However, as the second elder did that, David raised his right arm in one swift motion with the last energy he had left and then, one of the bone fragment jutting out from the skin in his arm pierced out like and arrow. 

And immediately pierced through the second elder\'s neck, his flesh, then into his throat. 

Even as the spear pierced through his chest, he was barely able to shift his a few millimeters to the left, barely avoiding been stabbed at the heart. 

Then David fell to the ground, completely drained of energy and fell into unconsciousness. 

The middle-aged man looked with shock as his body shook. Everything had happened so quickly giving him no time to react and he was unable to dodge out of the way due to exhaustion.

Once the bone fragment stabbed into his neck, blood spilled out like a geyser. The second elder quickly held his neck in an attempt to cover the would but was only able to do so much. And it barely had any effect saving his life. 

He stared down at his own own blood dropping down the floor through the bone stabbed at his neck and couldn\'t help but laugh bitterly at the situation, making blood spill out even more. 

Of someone had told him a few moments ago that he would die from the kids hands, he would barely have believed such nonsense. 

With that, he staggered backwards and toppled to the ground. His life signs fading away like smoke. 

* * * * * * * * * 

Deep within the Black dorm jungle rain eventually started falling through the night skies and the moon started to fade away. 

Thunder rumbled as the rain fell heavily down the forest. 

The jungle was exceptionally silent and the stench of blood flowed away with the wind and the staines washed away by the rain. 

However, the bodies that laid on the floor showed testament to how deadly the Fight previously had been. 

. As the elderly man\'s life signs slipped away, his eyes shone an unyielding light, showing how deep his grievance was. 

Next to him, David laid on the floor, like a still corpse and one wouldn\'t know whether he was breathing or not. 

Suddenly the quiet forest was interrupted as a muffled thumping sound rang out admist the pitters and patters of the rain. 

It was as though somthing or someone was walking through the forest and eventually came to a stop near the tow bodies. 

It was an humanoid creature with strange features. It looked like a mixture between a wolf and a man. But his appearance was incredibly old. An ancient aura spread out from within him, making him look like one of those old thousand year monsters. 

"Humans... I sense the bloodline of my kin from one of them." The monster spoke in an hoarse voice as he glanced at the two bodies. It was both vague and bizzare as it sounded through out the entire forest. 

"One is dead, while the other struggle to live... What strong will power." The monster seen to mutter to himself. 

Then suddenly, the monster pointed at the second elder\'s corpse. Suddenly, the corpse began to wither and dry as though all the life essence in its body had been sucjed dry.

Blood mist eventually formed from within the corpse and flew up into the air, covereging into a crystal shaped blood nucleus. 

Without hesitation, the monster popped it into his mouth and swallowed it. 

Then it glanced at David and was about to do the same when his eyes suddenly flickered. 

"Interesting." The old monster walked around David for a while before it paused. 

"It\'s being long any of my kind survived, I might as well help you now. When you grow, I will come reap my seed." With that, it stretched his hands and slashed at his palm with his fingers. 

Golden blood spilled out from his hands and floated in mid air. 

Controlling the blood, he dropped it inside David\'s opened mouth which David gulped down. 

Suddenly David\'s body shook violently like he was having an ultra seizure. 

This caused the old monster to chuckle darkly as he said.. "But first, you will have to survive ingesting my blood into you body."
