Chapter 98 - A Deadly Mistake



A red arrow head was projected right at the top edge of his vision.

Astonished, David raised his head upwards to inspect where the life signal was coming from, but he saw nothing apart from a heavy shade of trees, keeping the sun rays from pirecing through.

There was nothing on the trees but as David tilted his head sideways, the red dot in his vision remained still at a particular branch of a large tree.

David let out a smirk and he retracted his gaze from its upwards stare, casually moving forwards, as though he was ab it to leave his position.

His spine suddenly tingled and David felt his hair stood on end as his body switched to its lazy but optimal posture.

Whoosh!

Instantaneously, his body swayed and his figure seemed to want to fade as a yellow blur of something flew past his ears with astonishing speed almost comparable to that of a bullet.

If David hadn\'t performed the technique in that instant, it was unknown what would have happened.

David\'s eyes glinted with a cold light and he simultaneously sent his arms soaring backwards, towards the yellow flying thing that had missed him.

"Got you." he caught the yellow blur in midair with his hands.

David laughed coldly, looking at the tiny little thing squirming with fear, lying between his hands.

It was a little yellow snakelike beast with a flat and streamlined body which allowed it to glide in the air for short periods of time with astonishing speed.

In his lectures, David had heared about the snake before, although nothing much but he still heard bits and pieces of the information.

The Soaring Threadserpent can be a very dangerous beast in the wilderness if one knew nothing about its features and its characteristics.

But, if one was informed about it in the first place, it would be quite easy to take care of.

One of its characteristics was its speed. Its speed was definitely very fast, to a terrifying level but it can only move in a straight line on the air.

And it uses its sharp horn like tail to pierce through its opponent just like a bullet would.

A new Spryher would definitely die if it encountered something like this but a season Spyher whose blood revolution had surpassed 1 cycle per second could easy dispatch a beast of such caliber only if he or she was aware of its information.

But an unaware seasoned Spyher, it was unknown what would happen.

Especially when bitten by it.

A Soaring Threadserpent rearly uses its mouth, releasing its toxins as it contains a very powerful toxin it had accumulated for a few decades or even centuries.

Even a 3 cycles per second Spryher would die upon being bitten if not treated within a few days.

Its other characteristics was that, its flies. One might be thinking so what if its flies.

But that was truly ignorant thinking because it flies backwards!

As David was about to get a closer look at the beast in his hands, he felt something was off as he recalled the information about the Treadsnake moreover, his instincts hasn\'t relaxed yet.

In that moment, he suddenly recalled the words and a single word came to David\'s mind as he shouted in his head.

\'F*ck!\'

His heart skipped a beat and his legs muscles inflated by more than three times its previous size. It was as though his leg had been pumped full of air but the alarming twisting veins in his legs said otherwise.

And as he swiftly stomped his foot to the ground, he hastily made an explosive retreat and his right hand which had been holding on to the beast quickly released its hold, but still, not without activating Scorching fury.

The temperature in his hands rose like the scorching sun and his body exploded backwards.

Previously he had used the Cyclonic Kick art as a Motion technique and since he had reached the perfection state, he could utilize it as he wished, using it as a Motion technique made his movement speed quite fast.

But Cyclonic Kick art was only a low-tier black grade technique.

Its speed in the perfection state could never match the speed of the Three-Fold Step in its Prosaic state or even the Glimpse state.

He was like a bullet shot out from a machine gun as his body shot backwards. If Rex saw this right now, he would definitely be frozen in shock.

The speed David displayed was simply too astonishing.

But sadly that wasn\'t enough to save him from his current predicament.

Although his speed was amazing enough to stun anyone, he wasn\'t faster than the snake that he had been previously holding.

Two thing happened in that scenario.

Another characteristic of the Soaring Threadserpent was that, its thinnest part was its tail.

No, it was its head. Normally a snake would definitely have a slight circular shape at the end of one part and a eyes with a mouth born with it which indicated that it was the head part of its body.

But a Soaring Threadserpent was true at its deception.

Its head was cylindrical, the same as its body but only smaller which would definitely allow someone to mistake the head for the tail and its tail had the perfect contour on a snakes body with a sharp horn to boot.

With its speed, it was able to pierce its prey with ease but on the premises that it was unable to do so and its prey suddenly got a hold of it, it would definitely be surprised to realise that the head which it had caught was just it\'s tail.

But that simple second for it to take the prey to confirm it\'s conjecture was enough for the serpent to strike a deadly counter attack.

First was that,

He had cleanly and perfectly gotten hold of the little beast but as he recalled the information regarding the beast, he was fast to make an explosive retreat.

But that wasn\'t enough.

The Snake\'s head suddenly rose like an anaconda, its speed surpassing all limits as it immediately but at David\'s retracting hands.
