BXBX NOVEL Chapter 512 - Death Of A Loved One
"ROARRR!!!" A ear-rending roar sounded out from behind Yohr, which was terrifying enough to momentarily paralyze his body even if he sensed the humongous five-meter ethereal beast pouncing upon him from behind.
It had a huge tigress-like body with a white mane and shimmering light blue stripes covering her body with small bright red gems embedded along her spine. Her eyes were blood red, and an intense aura of bloodthirst was emanating from her that could make one\'s soul cower in fear.
Who could it be other than Valentina, who sensed that something was wrong the moment Damien began to feel that Yohr was an enemy. Since she and Damien\'s souls were connected, she could feel the tension, anxiety, and fear Damien felt for reasons she had no idea, especially since Damien was not near her.
So all she could do was seek him out by herself and was surprised to come upon a secret icy cave and slipped inside easily with her unique powers. And as she got closer, she only felt that Damien\'s emotions were going through tumultuous changes, which only worried her even more since she had never felt these kinds of emotional changes from him, and it only smelled like he was in grave danger for her.
And the moment she finally stepped into this big icy chamber, she was shocked to see a giant snake-like ethereal beast with several heads attacking Damien with the intent to seriously hurt him.
Her blood boiled in rage, but she didn\'t immediately act but instead decided to use her presence to take this monster by surprise at the most opportune time. She knew acting on her impulsive emotions might result in distracting Damien and also putting herself in danger since she could sense that this large monster didn\'t look like an ordinary ethereal beast and could even talk.
But most of all, she could sense that this ethereal beast was very powerful despite looking bloodied and injured. Her instincts were already warning her to not fight against it, which meant that she was no match for it.
However, she could see that Damien\'s aura and strength had increased to higher levels beyond her expectation which excited her and made her feel relieved, thinking there was indeed a chance for Damien to defeat this monster as long as he could hold up for a while.
But seeing her lover\'s face turning pale as blood continued to leak from his lips, she could see that the power he was harnessing was costing a huge price to his body. This was something she had already known before whenever he used to battle others, and his aura suddenly increased. But this time, the extra power he had gained was coming at a higher price.
However, she was impressed and awed to see that Damien was able to cut off several of its necks with his powerful lightning attacks, but in the end, seeing him collapse on the ground with barely any consciousness made her heart drop and finally take action by transforming into her large ethereal beast form.
Yohr was eagerly about to initiate the process of taking over Damien\'s body when he suddenly sensed danger behind him.
But what shocked and confused him was why was he only able to sense its presence when it got so close to him? It was as if this unknown mysterious beast just randomly manifested behind him.
However, when Yohr was able to sense what kind of beast it was, he was yet again shocked since this ethereal beast reminded him of something, "Impossible!"
But he didn\'t have the luxury of thinking much about it as Valentina\'s claws dug into his flesh, though she wasn\'t able to dig them deeper because of how strong Yohr\'s physical body was. There was no way of closing that gap with her present cultivation.
However, she wasn\'t planning to hurt Yohr through her claws but by using her large sharp fangs to bite into one of Yohr\'s necks.
"HISSS!!" Yohr hissed in pain and anger as her fangs not only pierced his skin, but she was doing something to his precious blood.
He found his body becoming numb as if he was losing control of his body and couldn\'t even use any of his ethereal arts even if he wanted to.
It was as if he was prevented from accessing them.
However, he still didn\'t stop struggling and was using his pure brute strength to shake off Valentina and was slowly taking back control of his body.
Valentina inwardly became tense, knowing that she wouldn\'t be able to suppress this monster forever, though that was never what she planned to do.
Instead, she injected her venom into this monster\'s body, paralyzing Yohr much to his shock, and immediately got off from his back and jumped towards Damien while reducing her size to her cute cat form.
Yohr\'s eyes were widened to the extremities as he stood frozen on the spot, his body paralyzed. But his body began to fight back Valentina\'s venom quickly and was already in the process of regaining control of his body.
Because of this, Valentina didn\'t waste any time and took a great risk by making herself vulnerable and biting Damien\'s neck to rejuvenate his blood and infuse him with her ethereal and spiritual energy, hoping that her energy would be enough for him to wake up and fight.
"Uhh…" Damien stirred awake the moment he felt a warm, soothing sensation fill his entire body. If he previously felt like an empty water container in a desert, now he felt like he was getting filled by the water of life in the spring of life.
Damien quickly woke up since he remembered the situation was in and sensed Valentina near him. Valentina removed her fangs seeing that Damien had woken up but…
"DIE!" Yohr growled, and Valentina involuntarily turned her head towards him to look at Yohr and prepare herself to protect Damien.
Damien\'s eyes widened when he saw Valentina in her cat form beside him and looking at Yohr standing right in front of her, his eyes widened as he shouted, "NO!!"
Yohr snickered as his eyes glinted with a bright azure light, and before Valentina could turn her head back around because of Damien\'s warning, her whole body froze as she turned into an lifeless ice statue instantaneously.
"VALENTINA!!"
