Ryuu stretched as he looked back at the remains of a 'Storm Devouring Hydra', 'Shame such a beautiful beast died because it crossed path with me, there was a time when I wanted to bond with a Hydra as my spirit beast but now I killed one, if it were not for Dhaeq I could have used its venom to increase my immunity but oh well it's poison is weaker than the one I received.'
Ryuu then turned towards the dead beast as he mused with a slight drool on his face, 'Well I can eat it after all big sis Shamiran said that this species of Hydra albeit it's deadly and toxic face is tasty.', his fantasy about Hydra meat ended when he heard some voice, "Is that a Hydra?"
Ryuu's shoulder shagged as he spoke, "Yes yes it is."
Ryuu turned to look at one of his companions as the person spoke, "It is pity that except its venom and maybe its bones, such a pity."
Ryuu shrugged at that while inwardly he was fuming, 'I was about to have it for dinner but now I cannot because of them, if I eat it in front of them they will start to question about my poison resistance and might figure out my limits something like that will be foolish, since I do not know if those people who tried assassinated me still have someone from their group alive amongst us.'
"It is a pity that the meat is too toxic for us to eat and this swap is full of such creatures if it continues we might die of starvation."
Ryuu as he wordlessly acquiesced at his words with a nod, the challenge for them was simple open the gateway to the other level and survive till you succeed survive, it was simple the word survive meant for them to kill some dangerous animals spend sometime in the swamp but then it happened as all of a sudden pangs of hunger and thirst hit them like a wrecking ball. Cultivators as they ascend through various realms their strength goes through a dramatic increase but at the same time the one of the basic but a very important necessity of any organism otherwise known as 'sustenance' loses its value it is true that spirit food helps a lot to heal may be even boost cultivation but there are various medicinal pills that do the same but in a much better way, the need of sustenance is not necessary but a guilty pleasure, and for cultivators like Ryuu who can survive decades if not centuries without a drop of water.
After entering the 4th level of Eden they were forced to seek sustenance and to make matter even worse anything that would classify as food or water including any alcoholic beverages, spices anything excluding medicinal pills would become stale and would become unfit for consumption shortly after being taken out of the space ring or space bags, as such they are forced to hunt and scavenge for food and water but it was proving to be incredibly difficult because the swamp was full of poisonous creatures and fresh water was even rare, only a few plants when their stems were cut provided them with water, they had been forced to stay in such a condition for a good few months already and even though they had already found the doorway to the next level the means of activation was unfortunately out of their reach at the current moment.
True-Spear strolled into the place shortly after as he let out a small whistle as he spoke, "Well looks here someone killed a Hydra."
Ryuu pouted as he spoke, "Well it is not my fault I was minding my own business it decided to attack me."
True-Spear snorted at that as he spoke, "Well if you all have finished then we should move the last thing we need is other beasts being attracted here because of the smell of blood."
No sooner did he speak a loud boom was heard and Ryuu shared a glance with True-Spear before they dashed to the sky along with others hot on their heels as they reached to sky, they were greeted with screeches and screams of various creatures who were fleeing was heard.
Ryuu looked at what seemed to be a giant Iceberg had fallen over the swamp, True-Spear tensed as he looked at the battle raging on as he spoke in a tensed tone, "That KI I know it, Frost Flames is fighting someone, and Zywia should also be with her."
As True-Spear dashed forward towards his martial sister's location, Ryuu raised his brow as he noticed slight bit of panic in his voice when he mentioned Zywia's name, he then followed after him as did the others.
Zywia was currently enjoying her present company Frost Flames that might be because she was learning a lot about True-Spear, and she liked it very much amongst all the male she had met he seemed to be the most honorable single person except may be his brother and may be even Ryuu but he was too young not even a hundredth of her age.
When all of a sudden one of the people who were travelling with them shouted out in alarm as he was flung hard against a rock protrusion, the others brought their weapons out, which included her Zither as she looked at that creature a cold pit formed inside her stomach.
As True-Spear reached the place he was greeted large amount of destructions and many cultivators lying on the ground injured his eyes fell to one particular cultivator who was lying on the ground as blood flowed from her stomach he screamed with fear at the top if his lungs, "ZYWIAAAA!!!!!"

Ryuu casted a glance towards Zywia but since True-Spear was making his way towards her as such he did not make a move to reach her but his attention was drawn towards another Frost Flames was on the ground as her assailant was about to finish her.Frost Flames dress was in tatters, her veil missing not to mention the numerous wounds that had appeared on her body, even though she her opponent was vicious she did not give up and fought valiantly but alas she was slowly but surely overpowered and now her enemy was about to finish her off, when suddenly a talisman appeared in front of her as a barrier protected her, the creatures attacked hit the barrier before it was flung away from her.
"Sorry we were late, can you stand and do you need any help?", came a very familiar voice to her ears.
Frost Flames looked at Ryuu with a grateful but tired smile on her face, he looked down towards her as he extended his hand towards her, she caught his hand before being pulled to her feet only to stumble as Ryuu caught him as he spoke, "Easy there it did a number on you, you should rest."
Frost Flames blushed being such a close proximity to a male before she schooled her features before she spoke with a wince, "I am okay brother Ryuu though we should focus on the enemy, it is very strong as such we should fight against this together."
Ryuu nodded as he released his hold on her as he spoke with a sigh, "You are injured and you should rest but if you wish to fight then please be my support while I will be the vanguard."
A roar announced the arrival of the enraged enemy Ryuu gripped his sword hard as his eyes narrowed as he looked towards his enemy, a tall humanoid looking creature with its upper half looking like a human clad in bony armor while the lower half was that of a snake, its head looked like covered by a helmet with a single glowing red eye not to mention its six menacing hands that ended into sword like claws, it helmet parted to what seemed like a mouth with long tongue as it let out a bone chilling laugh, 'Ghi Ghi Ghi…', before it dashed towards Ryuu as he spoke with a smirk on his face, "Ho a 'One-Eyed Sword Raksasha'."
Six sword like claw slashed towards Ryuu swift and hard, trying to tear him apart, only to be stopped by his sword as they clashed a few dozen times with the creature, parry attack, parry was all he did as he fended all six swords gracefully without any problem as others watched the deadly dance between the two.
Up, left, down, right, upper right his sword sung with joy and anger as it clashed against the beast joy for being used and anger against the creature that defied its master, Ryuu felt elated at being able to fight such a duel with its sword the creature was fighting on even footing well maybe not as Ryuu was pressing forward when all of a sudden Ryuu broke its guard making it falter and Frost Flames did not waste the chance as with a yell she chopped off two of its hands.
A cheer was heard as the Frost Flames gained a smile on her face only to disappear as the creature disappeared only for her eyes to widen as she watched Ryuu swing his sword towards her head, a loud clang followed as she was pulled towards Ryuu as she turned back she was greeted by the creature that had tried to cut her down and would have been successful if not for Ryuu her eyes widen as two new fresh hands appeared from its bleeding stump.
"Stay on your toes it can not only teleport but has very high regeneration, if you are not careful it would take it …..", Ryuu stopped speaking as he cursed out loudly, "Shit…", before he dashed towards one of the injured cultivators as the creature had teleported directly in front of injured cultivator with intent to kill him.
