Chapter 196: Giant Shadow Spike!
Translator: Tofu Editor: Tofu
The stunning flames were like a volcano spitting out energy. The gigantic fist shaped flames had turned everything on the stage into black powder.
As the violent flames came forth, they surged toward the location of the Mother Beast as they engulfed everything.
The Mother Beast’s reaction was quick. She jumped using all four limbs, quickly racing to the bottom of the stage. If she was hit by the full force of a Spirit grade Intermediate Magic, she would naturally die!
She began to frantically run, as though trying to outrace the giant Fiery Fist unleashed by Mo Fan!
In the end, the Fiery Fist still engulfed her. The flames swept over her body, blasting her into the air.
“Sssssss~~!!!”
The Mother Beast’s body fell beneath the stage, covered with flames. The scales on her body were visibly scorched, with traces of heated swirls on her flesh.
The Mother Beast had barely been able to endure the flames of the Burning Bones, and her green scales had only displayed a little red color. However, at this moment, not only did her scales get burned into nothing, but her horrifying body still had lingering flames scorching her!
The Mother Beast let out a scream filled with pain while being burned by the flames. Her face was extremely distorted.
However, she did not die!
After receiving such an incredible attack, this thing was still capable of crawling right back!
She was furious, and continuously let out shrieks of pain.
She didn’t seem to care that there were flames still burning on her body, she charged once more towards Mo Fan!
Her speed was by no means slower than when she was uninjured. Moving with that kind of speed usually meant normal people could not even see her properly.
“Mo Fan, Mo Fan! They’re about to charge in!” Lingling’s voice was very urgent.
“I understand!” Mo Fan’s eyes were fixed on the Mother Beast racing over.

“Run away, don’t let the Mother Beast kill you!” Lingling said.
Mo Fan did not reply.
Run?
If he was to run now, that was only a road to death. With the speed of the Mother Beast, she would be able to overtake any running human in no time!
Mo Fan stood there as he hurriedly scanned the area around the intercrossed shadows while he watched the Mother Beast charging at him.
Mo Fan could feel the hatred and hostility of the Mother Beast. At this point, the Mother Beast was totally set on shredding him to pieces!
“Star Atlas Book!”
As he raised his hand, a black scroll appeared in front of Mo Fan.
The book imbued with the mana disappeared like tinder, and what remained was traces of little lights.
The shadows interwove and turned into a diagram, a Star Atlas that could be used to call upon the stars. Mo Fan’s Shadow Nebula’s forty-nine Shadow Stars lined up according to the patterns!
The arrangement of the Star Atlas Book was not very fast. However, Mo Fan only stood there without a single movement.
The Mother Beast’s speed was extremely fast. She had scuttled from the area she had fallen from and jumped back onto the stage, and from there was charging toward Mo Fan… During this entire process, Mo Fan was still trying to connect his Stars according to the book. It started from a normal Shadow Star Path, and it then doubled, which then began to intertwine with the first one…
The forty-nine Stars were being set up according to the Star Atlas, racing against the speed of the Mother Beast!
If the Star-linking speed was slower by even a little bit, then it was very likely that Mo Fan would be shred into bloody bits by the Mother Beast, before he was able to complete the spell.
At this moment, Mo Fan did not have any defensive tricks at all.

He was gambling!
He bet the speed of his Star Path drawing would be even faster than the Mother Beast!
“Ssssssss!!!”
The fishy stench that the Mother Beast let out came forth, the monster was right in front of him!
Mo Fan didn’t dare to be distracted, or else the effort he put into the Star Atlas would go down the drain!
At last, rays of Shadow emerged in front of Mo Fan. An incredibly large Shadow Silhouette that looked like a massive magic spike formed up. It was floating within an alternate dimension, completely different from those that were plastered onto the shadows!
“Giant Shadow Spike!”
Mo Fan hurled out the Shadow Spike filled with Dark Energy. This strange object immediately disappeared, you could only see its incredible shadows pass by through the intertwining lights.
The Mother Beast was already very close, her claws were reaching toward Mo Fan. This claw was enough to cut Mo Fan’s head from his body…
Mo Fan raised his head, seeing the claw that was about to take his life. His face began to split as the wind from the Mother Beast’s claws came forth, from his forehead to the bridge of his nose, from the corner of his eyes to his cheeks…
Just the wind from the claws was able to split apart the skin of a person, let alone after the claws landed; his head would be cleanly cut in half!
The claws slashed down.
However, she wasn’t able to touch Mo Fan’s face.
It was like she didn’t properly calculate the distance; her powerful claw barely missed Mo Fan’s face!
“Ssssss~~!!!!!” Mother Beast hissed out in anger.
It was like she was being held up by something. If the Mother Beast took yet another half-step forward, then she would be able to split Mo Fan in two.
Unfortunately, she seemed unable to move. Her frantic charge had come to an abrupt stop, just short of him!
After the Mother Beast turned her head to look, she realized her shadow had been stretched out by the lights on the stage. What made her extremely angry was there was an extremely large spike, like a sword, stuck into her shadow. Her shadow was firmly pinned to that area!
Once her shadow had been pierced through, the Mother Beast’s entire body seemed to be restricted. The Mother Beast was stuck in one place!
If the shadow can’t move, then the body won’t be able to move, either!
The Mother Beast’s claws were flailing hysterically while her legs continuously kicked in place. However, her pinned waist was not able to move a single step!
“Thunderbolt!”
In front of Mother Beast, not even a meter away, Mo Fan’s eyes suddenly lit up bright purple!
He was focused on the Mother Beast’s ugly face, while at same time, his own bloodied face displayed a satisfied smile.
The Element Stars that were the strongest between Heaven and Earth began to line up in front of Mo Fan. These Stars were those that Mo Fan was the most familiar with, and were much faster than the Shadow Stars!
As the Stars turned into Star Paths, and the Star Paths had intertwined into a Star Atlas, the Lightning Star Atlas emerged immediately. The majestic power seemed to flood in as it condensed within Mo Fan’s finger!
“Die!” Mo Fan jumped back as he pointed toward the Mother Beast’s head with his finger.
The Lightning Cloud immediately formed, the aura was extremely powerful!
A loud rumbling of thunder split the air!
Above the very center of the chaotic gymnasium, a thick Lightning Bolt split open everything as it descended!
The breath-taking purple color and its destructive power made it seem time itself had frozen as it exploded on the stage!

Why turn me into a monster who sees all yet cannot participate in the competition for power that you have arranged? WHY HAVE THE HEAVENS FORSAKEN ME? From birth I saw everything, nothing could escape my sight. However, the heavens made me a cripple, they put me in the shadows and I can’t help but yearn for the light. Why am I still of the living then? Well, Why should I give the Heavens the satisfaction of seeing me give up? I will not submit to the heavens nor will I submit to the bastards that wish to use me.

I shall carve out a new path for all those like me, a path that will go against the very constitution of this world. How will I do this? I do not know. But I will! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I will upload a chapter a day on Royalroad (maybe more) however if you want more of the story at a quicker pace then go to fantasy-books.live. There are currently 110+ chapters of Path of Blood there. P.S - I started Path of Blood about a year ago so the first fifteen chapters have some problems character wise however I'm currently working with an editor to remedy these to make the story a better read. Anyway, these issues don't last long and since Pob is a story that rewards the patient, only those who've read till the latest will understand how good the story really is....I designed it to get better with every ark, surprises planned at every corner and the eventual ending of Pob will definitely not dissapoint, so stick around and give it a chance. :D

The WereLionesses Mate
She was running out of breath, but that didn't matter, all that mattered was getting away from him and proving him wrong. Branches scraped her face and her arms, her body burning hot; but cold from her sweat as the wind blew over her skin. Her pants soaked from running through the streams, her shirt ripped to shreds around her stomach from very low hanging branches. Her hair, a tumbling fiery mess of tangles, and waves slipping through the ponytail she had quickly fastened trying to tame her wild hair. Running and crawling on the ground through the forest floor, trying to get back to the camp grounds so Whhooossshhhh! All of a sudden a giant gust of wind flew past her nearly lifting her off the ground and throwing her into a tree. Where in the world did that wind come from? She thought, but she kept running like it had never happened. She jumped over a fallen log, ignoring the fact that she almost fell in the process. She zoomed past all the trees and sprinted over the roots coming out of the ground. She rounded another tree coming to a sudden halt at seeing him standing there with a drink in his hand laughing and joking. She stood there wondering how in the world he could have beaten her here; He looked at her then, He looked, well, handsome, his faced was clean shaven and his button up shirt was all unbuttoned minus the three at the bottom. She could still visibly see his bronze chest and the top of his ripped-hard abs. He walked over to her and smiled, showing all of his teeth, the smile reaching his eyes. His eyes were dark and stormy, their color was usually a nice honey brown but now his eyes looked mid-night black. They looked like they could kill a man at eighty paces, but could sweep a woman off her feet at the same time.
