After saying that he and JM left to continue scouting the area leaving the dazed wolf.

They then continued doing it until sundown. Good news is, they were able to have a bountiful harvest since both of them even advanced their level. Also, they found 3 different kinds of plants, these are:

​​

5 White Yin Lotus [Blue Quality]

=(A plant that can thrive in a water full of yin energy)

3 Sunflowers [Orange Quality]

=(A flower that absorbs the sun's energy converting it into its own)

Dark Rose(Seedling) [Violet Quality]

=(A flower that has an ability to absorb dark elements) (It needs a decade to fully bloom) (Can hasten growth by using different dark type fertilizers)

After collecting those rare plants, he immediately put the lotus one on the Yin Pond. Meanwhile, the Sunflowers are placed near the Luminous Tree of Life. Lastly, the Dark Rose was planted in a much farther location to absorb any darkness and cultivate it.

After having dinner this time, all of them slept early because of their training. It needs to go on and at the same time have them to continually consume that of the dragon's meat. They only needed to fight to raise up their levels.

The next morning, they have continued training and as usual Shadowslash brought JM to search for other rare plants as which will be added to their collection. They hunted Silver Rank monsters along the way while searching for plants.

The next day everyone was startled when they heard a loud roar. Then, they saw Karl has already finished his evolution.

He was now twice as big as before. In addition, its skin became blood red in color. Furthermore, it was releasing a baleful aura that even suppressed that of the others. The data that Shadowslash gained from scanning him was:

Karl

(Silver Lvl 7)

(Superior)

(Flaming War Lion)

(Strength and Fire Type)

He was very happy with Karl's evolution. Shadow was actually searching for another helper to assist them in searching for prey to make Flora and JM Rank up into Silver Ranks.

JM should have been the lowest level of all of them but it was also the very monster that was accompanying Shadow during hunting and searching of items they need. As a result of this, JM was able to advance than the girls.

The three girls, excluding Flare, were already in Bronze Rank Level 9 so their level was actually a little bit the same as them currently.

Shadowslash had everyone gathered at the Yin Pond and told the girls that it was ready for drinking. He also told them to just train inside the cave since with the daily intake of yin water and dragon meat, they will have rapid improvement. He made sure to instruct that only after becoming a High Level Silver Rank monster can they travel outside with pairs.

After telling them that, he had assigned Karl to help them train thrice a week before leaving the cave with Flora and JM.

He decided to hunt deeper into the forest and even dared to have an idea of hunting Gold Rank monsters.

After searching for 3 hours, they finally found a prey they want. The only hard part is, they are 3 of them as of the moment. He is not quite sure of this.

Current beast:

Sharp Clawed Groundhogs

(Silver Lvl 4-5)

(Normal)

(Ground Type)

Seeing them eating a monster, he had a rough idea of ambushing them with a [Rapid Fire Flame Bullets].

He then blended with the shadows and sneaks closer to them. When the groundhogs were still focusing on their food and eating voraciously, he attacked.

Rains of [Flame Bullets] hit the groundhogs making them squeal.

After the attack they saw 3 dead groundhogs. One of them even have at least 10 holes in its body.

He then had JM devoured all of them before continuing hunting. They need to hunt at least 3 different types of monsters: Yin, Steel and Fire.

They continued hunting until finally they stumbled upon a Fire Type monster.

Infernal Panther

(Silver Lvl 6)

(Rare)

(Fire Type)

Like before, he sneaks closer to the panther and killed it using [Double Dark Slash]. At the end, he gave the monster's remains to Flora.

He became profecient in ambushing, especially now that he has some powerful skills.

As of the moment, the two of them are halfway through ranking up. JM only needed to eat Steel Type monster while Flora can now return and use the yin water as the catalyst for her promotion. Nevertheless, he wanted to know what happens if Flora ate a Silver Rank Yin Type monster and also drinking the yin water.

After searching for a couple of hours more, they heard an exceptionally loud shriek. They immediately dashed towards where the noise is originating from.

When they finally arrived at the scene, they saw a green anaconda attacking a monkey. When he scanned both of the monsters he was stunned by the monkey's data.

Foolish Gluttonous Ape

(Bronze Lvl 3)

(Good)

(Strength)

Poison Fanged Anaconda

(Silver Lvl 8)

(Excellent)

(Poison and Strength Type)

What shocked him was the monkey. How could a Bronze Rank monster come here all by itself and what's funny is, it kept throwing stones at the Poison Fanged Anaconda making the latter even annoyed.

However, the most thing that caught his interest was the tree where the monkey is attacking. In addition, it seems that the Poison Fanged Anaconda is greatly interested on the fruit as well.

Scanning the tree, a myriad of information was displayed to him:

(Energy Tree = A tree that amasses energy. It will bore a fruit that is named Energy Fruit which contains bountiful energy, thus attracts monsters.

QUALITY : Pseudo Violet Quality

REMINDER : The Energy Fruit is safe to be eaten by any type of beings because the energy that it contains is extremely pure and doesn't have a type.

TIPS : The Energy Tree can bore fruit faster or even evolved into higher quality if given numerous amounts of fertilizers)

After seeing the tree's attribute, he called Sans over and then dashed towards the Poison Poison Fanged Anaconda. He needed the plant more than ever. After getting close to the monster, he used [Double Dark Slash].

The Poison Fanged Anaconda felt an incoming attack and used its tail as a whip to attack Shadowslash.

Their attacks were producing sparks. Shadowslash lost in strength so he was sent back a meter away but unharmed.

The Poison Fanged Anaconda looks at its tail and hissed angrily, even though it won from the direct confrontation, it also got somwething in return as there were now 8 white marks on its tails: 4 marks in the left and right side respectively.

Shadowslash saw that unlike the other monster he met, this snake was actually a great fighter. Too bad he was now low on SP so he was not able to level up any of his skills.

He then used [Flame Bullets] and kept targeting the Poison Fanged Anaconda. He did not activate his Rapid Fire because he might hit the Energy Tree.

The Poison Fanged Anaconda saw Shadowslash shooting some kind of fireballs but it was unusually fast to be the fireball it knows.

*Bam* *Bam* *Bam*

The [Flame Bullets] kept hitting the Poison Fanged Anaconda. Consequently, it couldn't dodge due to the speed of the attack. However, with its tough scale the [Flame Bullets] have not injured it greatly.

The Poison Fanged Anaconda don't want to be just a target for Shadowslash so it spits a green spittle as a retaliation. Nonetheless, it was not as fast as the [Flame Bullets], frustatingly, it was also not that slow either.

Shadowslash dodges the poison spit but the Poison Fanged Anaconda kept spitting it seems that it also had a great range skill

He, afterwards, charge towards the Poison Fanged Anaconda again while continuously shooting [Flame Bullets]. When he got close enough, he used [Shadow Clones] creating two exact image of himself.

Him and his shadow clone split and used pincer attack making the Poison Fanged Anaconda confused on where is the true form of Shadowslash.

It then sweeps its tail towards the three only seeing one back off, while the two leapt to dodge targeting the Poison Fanged Anaconda without stopping.

The Poison Fanged Anaconda, however, was especially cunning and directly fired two poison spits towards the two Shadowslash coming at it.

One of the attack hit its target but the other one was dodged by Shadow.

Shadowslash was sneaking in the back while the Poison Fanged Anaconda was still busy on his two clones. He saw that one of his clone was hit by the Poison Fanged Anaconda's attack and have known that it was weakening before it finally became immobile. His clone did not turn into a vapor meaning it was only paralyzed as of the moment.

He then started his another assault targeting the back head of the Poison Fanged Anaconda using [Double Dark Slash].

*Ping* the attack collided causing a small injury on the Poison Fanged Anaconda's head. The problem is, it still did not manage to kill it even though it was caught unguarded.

The Poison Fanged Anaconda was about to attack the remaining Shadowslashs that were in front of it when it felt that a sudden hit on the back of its head. Due to this, it immediately realized that the two were just clones used for distraction. The real enemy was on the back. It hurriedly smacked the clones and searched for the real Shadowslash's position in order to defeat him.

Shadowslash was now hiding behind the tree. He was carefully sneaking towards the Poison Fanged Anaconda. However, he never thought that the Poison Fanged Anaconda was able have find him easily, then he saw a tail coming towards his direction.

*Boom*

The tail smashed onto the ground creating a crack on the surface. It seems that it really is using all its strength in attacking him.

Shadowslash now have no other choice but to activate his [Clairvoyance]. This Poison Fanged Anaconda is not a pushover, it has been proven to have a great fighting instinct. After this fight he already have decided to recruit it. This kind of monster is what his team really needs.
