Walking through several dozen cavern tunnels for multiple hours, they encountered several more beast groups.

Fortunately, none of them was strong enough against the force of more than one hundred prodigies with their soulbonds.

Most soulbonds were already at the Lowest Lique stage which was not surprising, given the fact that these prodigies hailed from strong families.

As such it was not a difficult task to catch a beast at the lowest Lique stage beast or abduct a cub.

However, what astonished Jason was the fact that most prodigies didn't fight with their soulbond!

Rather than that, they forced their soulbonds to utilized their affinity without thinking that it was required to let them fight in close combat.

After Jason sized up everyone's mana core in a detailed manner, he concluded that most prodigies had a combat prowess close to that of a Lowest Lique stage or had crossed this combat prowess already.

Jason noticed this unbothered and he was only attracted by some affinities he had never seen before.

There was even someone with a blue wind affinity which he found extremely interesting.

Unfortunately, Jason was unable to approach this person because she was surrounded by several underlings and pursuers.

Seeing that, he couldn't help but stay away from her even if the young woman's elemental affinity was interesting.

During the fights against multiple beast groups, Jason found out that Milan and Isga were a well-matched team.

This told him that they had already fought together, probably multiple times.

Adding Jason, who was good at adjusting himself into their team, the three massacred their way through the opponents.

This allowed the other prodigies who were also holding themselves greatly against their opponent, to break through.

There were only a few powerful beasts that required the help of several Lowest Liques stage soulbonds and humans who worked together.

However, what made everyone doubt was the fact that there has yet to be a Low Lique stage beast, or also called late Magical ranked beast.

Rather than that, there were only a few Mid-Magical ranked beasts that appeared and none of them harbored a curse.

Yet, the closer the group of prodigies came to their final destination, the more noises they could hear!

These noises echoed through the whole cavern complex which told everyone that there were powerful beasts fighting against each other.

In the beginning, these noises didn't cause much ruckus within the group of prodigies and they were able to remain calm until they deciphered the sounds of three particular beasts.

"F*ck!" Milan suddenly said as his face paled.

Jason was wondering what shocked Milan so much and averting his gaze he saw that everyone's face was as white as paper.

His mana eyes were fully utilized and he knew what was going on far ahead, several hundred meters in front of them.

A few minutes earlier he had injected more mana into his mana eyes which allowed him to see mana fluctuations and details in the distance better.

As such, Jason was fully aware of what happened nearby the mana vein whose dense mana currents distracted his mana eyes from the beasts' mana fluctuations in the surrounding area.

However, he was still able to decipher all beasts before anyone else, thus he not astonished when Isga suddenly said

"I understand why the Boneflame Centipede and maybe even somehow why the petrification serpent is below the surface, but what the hell is the Demonic Three-eyed Wolf doing here???"

Nobody was able to answer Isga's question because everyone was wondering about the same thing as their expression soured.

Only Jason was able to remain calm

What he currently saw was favorable in multiple ways.

First, he figured out that they were close to the mana vein which was definitely a good sign.

On the other side, there were so many beasts Jason could see and all of them were trying to approach the mana vein to receive more benefits.

This allowed him to see the second advantageous fact. Not only were the Boneflame Centipede, the Demonic Three-eyed Wolf, and the petrification serpent fighting against each other with all their might.

But there were also several Crimson-death Hell Spiders and other strong cursed Low Lique stage beasts.

Thus, Jason could say without any doubt that there was a huge massacre happening.

Furthermore, the number of dead bodies littering the ground was already enormous.

However, there were still other things Jason noticed as his eyes squinted for a moment before he smiled lightly.

He stepped towards the end of the cavern hall, before entering the tunnel next to the one that would have brought them to the mana vein without waiting for Suo or anyone else to say anything as he saw something attracting his attention.

The only problem was that he couldn't see it perfectly, and that was after he injected more mana into his mana eyes!

Unfortunately, Isga and Milan noticed his departure and regained their composure before they rushed towards Jason to hold him back.

"What the hell are you doing??" 

Jason had already forgotten that he was inside the cave with Isga, Milan, and more than one hundred more prodigies. 

Scratching the back of his head he plainly said

"Don't you hear that the noises are mostly filled with pain and not as vigorously as they should be? If my guess is not wrong, there should be many strong beasts fighting against each other and I doubt that the Demonic Three-eyed Wolf or any other beast will be strong enough to fight against several hundreds of thousands of Mid-Magical ranked beasts…" 

Jason was aware that he exposed a lot of information right now, but he didn't say the most important.

Not only was every beast he perceived with his mana eyes, injured, which included the three most terrifying beasts but the potential indication colors enveloping the Demonic Three-eyed Wolf, Boneflame Centipede and petrification serpent were extremely weird!

The Demonic Three-eyed Wolf had a dark blue color enveloping it, while the Boneflame Centipede was enveloped by the thick purple color.

This told Jason that they were an extremely strong beast with the potential to reach the Guardian or even Lord rank which was comparable to the Mid and Late Lique stage.

However, more confusing was why nobody even thought about encountering a Guardian ranked beast. Everyone was worried about the most terrifying cursed, peak-Magical ranked beasts, but  that was it!

Ignoring Isga and Milan who were thinking about his words, Jason asked

"Why are there no Guardian ranked beasts inside the Mythic Garden?" 

Distracted from thinking about what Jason said before, Milan subconsciously answered 

"There had never been a beast above the peak-Magical ranked inside the Mythic Garden. Maybe it's a restriction?" 

When Jason heard this, he was confused because he was reminded about the green planet he saw just a few weeks before, when he had stepped through the Mythic Garden rift.

'Isn't the Mythic Garden a whole planet? How can the whole planet be restricted...?' He began to wonder, confused about what Milan said.

Jason was unsure whether his assumption was right or wrong but it was clear that Milan didn't think that there had been a single Guardian-ranked beast before.

As such, his mana eyes were either wrong or there was something wrong with the Mythic Garden.

'Does it not only restrict who steps through the rift but also how strong one can become inside a certain area, which is the Mythic Garden itself? That's...good, I guess?'

Jason was glad that it seemed to be impossible to become stronger than a certain rank because he wouldn't have to face stronger opponents than the three beasts at the most terrifying beast ranking.

Furthermore, all of them were at the Low Lique stage which meant that Jason had a chance to fight them in a year or so.

However, if he were to consider his growth, the Mythic Garden might expel him for being too strong.

That was if he would be able to enter it a year from now.

This was not his plan, but nobody could say what would happen in the future.

Nevertheless, the most shocking was neither the information that there was an advancement restriction for beasts at the Low-Lique stage nor the fact that the Demonic Three-eyed Wolf had the potential to reach the late Lique stage or also called Lord stage.

Rather, it was the petrification serpent with two particular facts!

He saw the petrification serpent's strong man fluctuations which he had only seen two times in his whole life.

Not only was Jason completely unable to see its true color, but there was also the fact that he could see several different mana fluctuations within the petrification serpent's body.

They were still alive and close to each other, the size of one's fist.

'The petrification serpent is about to lay its eggs!!'
