Murim Recurve

Connected Sight!

Re'Kha used one of the abilities of her eye immediately, making a connection with the village head. This was just in case they had plotted something, she would be aware of it immediately. All she needed was a moment of eye contact for the ability to take effect. 

The village head hadn't sensed anything amiss. 

Re'Kha closed her eyes for a moment as she was able to see through the perspective of the village head, seeing her appearance. She then opened her eyes, noticing that she was back to her own perspective.

She alighted from her horse and tied it at the village's entrance, looking at the village head as she commanded, "Take care of the horse."

"Yes, my lady!" The village head bowed, showing his utmost respect. 

Holding her Quasi-Magic Artifact, the sword named Water Wave, Re'Kha walked through the village, soon reaching the end as she looked at the cave's entrance, smelling a thick stench of earth. She touched the cave walls and frowned immediately, 'The Earth Qi here is too dense. How is this possible? This village is well within our territory.'

Frowning, she entered the cave, walking for a short distance before she closed her eyes, seeing everything the village head saw. She noticed that his line of sight trailed to the bag of supplies she had placed on the horse. 

He then seemed to shake his head before conversing something with the villagers. Based on their lip movement, Re'Kha was able to make out what they were speaking.

"Is this really okay? She seems young. What if she fails to kill it and causes it to grow even further?"

"Prepare the messenger bird to inform the city. The moment we hear any strange sounds, send a message immediately. Just in case, we must be ready to block the cave's entrance."

"…" Upon making out the context of their conversation, Re'Kha shook her head. Their worries were normal. And, in the case she died, blocking out the cave was a barely wise decision. But, even then, as the beast was able to drill through the earth, blocking the entrance wouldn't hinder it even the slightest.

Though, if they blocked the entrance while she was still alive, that would be an entirely different issue. They might be punished severely. In the worst case, the cities would wash their hands off the village, forcing it to starve to death.

Re'Kha took out a Water Qi Essence from her storage ring and placed it within her armour, activating it as she expanded its range to six times her height. This was the limit of a Pranic Art. Though, the range of her Hand Projection was only four times her height. The extra range was to give her enough time to react. 

If she wished, she could increase the range further. But, it would serve no use. After all, the Water Qi would only collide into the dense Earth Qi in the walls and annihilate each other. So, it was better to not waste it, even if she had a tremendous reserve to bank upon.

The mine only had a couple of routes. And, even though it was considerably long, it didn't matter to her. After all, she had already scouted its entirety using her Wind Qi perception. And, she noticed the beast at the end of one of the routes. 

Only after that did she switch to using her Water Qi Essence. In the Wind Element, she only knew the Wind Blade. But, she wasn't able to replenish her Wind Qi reserves easily. After all, she only had one Wind Qi Essence. She planned to use it to increase her speed of comprehending Wind Qi. 

So, using it to replenish her Wind Qi reserves would waste it and would expend it faster. After all, upon continuous use, an Elemental Qi Essence only lasted for a decade. And, Re'Kha needed that until she reached the peak as a Harmoniser. 

So, using Water Qi was a better option. As she already knew where the enemy was, Re'Kha quickly paced through the cave, proceeding about it as she skipped past the dugout soil at many places. 

There weren't any tracks at the place as it seemed all the mined-out materials were transported manually, judging by the carts situated at every nook and cranny. Even though she was travelling at a considerable speed through the place, Re'Kha was alert, maintaining her Water Qi perception against any sneak attacks. 

Her hands were poised, ready to unleash a Palm Projection immediately. But, it seemed the beast had no intentions to ambush her, judging by the way it remained at the same place from the start. At times, Re'Kha stopped, deactivated her Water Qi Essence, and switched to using her Wind Qi perception just to see where the beast was. 

And, she frowned upon noticing that it hadn't moved from the place since the start. And, even if she wished to perceive what it did, she was unable to do so. The place around the beast was too rich in Earth Qi that there was no Wind Qi in the place to allow her to see. 

Even the image of the beast was only blurry. This was another reason she was using Water Qi. Without enough Wind Qi in the air, her Wind Blade would have the least effect, only as strong as the amount of Wind Qi she had used in it—one unit.

It wouldn't receive any environmental amplification. Moreover, the Earth Qi of the place would further weaken it, turning it into a weak attack. At least, with the Water Qi Essence, her water-based attacks would retain enough power to pack a punch. After all, she was moving around with a domain that would amplify her abilities. 

Soon, she stopped before a corner, pausing as she took in a deep breath before condensing a spherical blue radiance before her. By expending 10 units of Water Qi, she summoned her Balou, intending to probe using it first. 

Moreover, since her Balou was a defensive type, it was the perfect solution to use in the place. Thinking so, she smiled as the Balou turned around the corner and instantly accelerated towards the beast, building up significant momentum.
