Murim Recurve

The Balou kicked with its legs and continued to charge the beast into the walls, pressing its body while pressuring it, causing it to scream in response. The beast's right arm tried to swipe the Balou but as the Balou held the beast's arm joint, it was unable to hit it.

Even then, its mouth opened, trying to clamp on the Balou constantly. The Balou adjusted its position and barely evaded the attacks, at times receiving numerous inch-deep scratches on its armoured body. But, it couldn't evade for long, losing footing as it wasn't able to charge into the wall continuously.

The beast was beginning to overpower it in a contest of strength. Right at this time, Re'Kha leaped and swung her sword, making a cut on its arm. She frowned, for the cut was shallower than she had expected. The muscles of the beast were significantly tough.

It was like trying to hack on her Balou. The beast's serpentine body coiled around the Balou as its hand dug into the cave walls, using it as a lever as it threw the Balou towards Re'Kha.

Re'Kha slid through the gap between the flying Balou and the ground as it crashed into the place she stood before. She hadn't even finished the sliding evasion when the hand of the beast slammed into her.

Re'Kha unleashed a Palm Projection with all her strength, negating the beast's attack as she slashed with her sword before backing out. She noticed that the Beast didn't try to attack once she had gone beyond its reach.

It seemed it didn't wish to leave the two eggs unguarded. After rolling on the ground a couple of times, Re'Kha got up and panted, observing the Beast's actions as she took in deep breaths, recovering her Water Qi.

The Balou managed to get up by now as it shook its head, gathering its bearings as it charged towards the Beast. But this time, it aimed for the eggs, since the Beast seemed intent to protect them.

As for Re'Kha, she frowned, noticing that Water Qi barely did much damage to the Beast. 'Just what is this beast?'

But upon seeing the traits exhibited by the Beast, she frowned, 'Just where have I heard about such a Beast before?'

She then rushed forth the moment the Balou slammed into the Beast that tried to defend its charge. She leaped into the air, dodging the tail swipe from the beast as she plunged her sword into it, causing it to scream.

Through her Water Qi perception, she noticed that the Water Qi seemed to be fighting against something within its tail. And, the moment she sensed it, her heart thumped intensely as she felt fear build up in her heart.

For a moment, it caused the pumping of Water Qi by her Pranic Heart to slow down. Re'Kha pulled out the sword and slammed a Palm Projection at the hand that tried to swat her. She barely managed to stop it as her Palm Projection splashed everywhere like water.

But this time, the Beast exerted even more strength into its attack, moving its hand once again. Quickly dropping her sword, Re'Kha slammed another Palm Projection, sending the Beast's arm flying back a little.

In the meantime, the Balou dented part of the Beast's body through its charging attack, beginning to push it back little by little.

'If only it had eyes that it relied on.' Re'Kha grunted, deactivating her Water Qi Essence as she took in a deep breath, changing her element to wind as she jumped straight at the Beast.

Coordinating through their shared thoughts, the Balou charged straight into the Beast's mouth and bit on its teeth in the upper jaw, using its legs to stomp on the Beast's lower jaw.

Having leapt into the air, Re'Kha raised both her arms, bellowing as she brought them both slashing down, emitting grey radiance before unleashing two Wind Blades. The Wind Blades hacked into the Beast's arm joint, one over another, severing most of it.

The attack caused the speed of its arm's movement to slow down as Re'Kha evaded an attack and slammed another Wind Blade into the arm joint, almost severing it. She then jumped and landed on the Beast's head, unleashing another Wind Blade to finally sever its arm completely.

The Beast jerked its head, throwing off Re'Kha as she leaped back at the same time, slashing with both her hands as she unleashed two Wind Blades. They made long gashes on its head as she had expended all her Elemental Qi reserves, hurriedly changing to the water element as she activated the Water Qi Essence and dodged a lash from the Beast's tail.

She then rolled on the floor, continuing to roll as the tail slammed into the places right after she moved past. From rolling, she changed into a four-legged posture, leaping like a wild animal before continuing to roll. Upon seeing that she had escaped its range of attack, the Beast decided to finish off the Balou first.

It used its tail to coil around the Balou's lower body, trying to pull it out as it rolled on the ground, hitting the cave walls as dust dropped from every impact. The Balou desperately held on despite the damage it sustained, keeping the Beast struggling to kill it.

In the meantime, Re'Kha grabbed the sword and activated it, leaping forth as she attacked the Beast's body whenever a chance presented itself. Even though she had wounded it a lot of times, the Beast hadn't bled even a single drop of blood.

And, the moment she looked into its wounds, intense fear enveloped her body as even her Water Qi flow slowed down. Thankfully for her, her eyes absorbed the Fear Qi generated in her body, allowing her to move immediately after.

That was how she managed to dodge the Beast's attacks on time. But soon, the Balou was no longer able to hold out as the Beast finally managed to clamp its mouth shut, piercing its teeth deep into the Balou's body, drawing out copious amounts of blood.

Re'Kha used the chance to hack with all her might, plunging the sword through its head until only its hilt remained out. She pulled it out immediately, took her Water Qi Essence, and stuffed it through the wound, plunging her sword right back in to lodge the Water Qi Essence deep into its head.
