God's Eyes (Web Novel)
chapter-362

Running through the Mythic Garden while the weightless steps movement technique had been fully exerted, Jason was able to cross a large distance in a short amount of time.

Adding the fact that he was able to continuously conceal his mana core, he didn't encounter a single beast.

This was also thanks to his mana eyes and Jason didn't have any issues with other young prodigies obstructing him in any way either!

Thanks to the young woman's detailed guide with the exact location where he had to vent through in order to enter the reclusive area of the Mythic Garden, only a few hours had passed before Jason arrived in the adjacent area.

Looking around, he searched for the path through the mountain range which he approached.

Jason was not sure if it was the same mountain range he had seen before but it was definitely far away from the area he dug the burrow below the gigantic tree.

As such it didn't really matter and if it were to be the same mountain range, the reclusive area would be larger than he assumed it to be.

Almost half a day passed before Jason found a path through the mountain range which was only possible because of his mana eyes, otherwise, it would have taken much longer.

They perceived tiny mana fluctuations extremely well which allowed him to predict where hollow areas were and where a path through the whole mountain could be.

After his mana eyes had been refined, his eyesight increased by a few times too!

This allowed Jason to not only see further and more in detail, but the mana fluctuations became more vibrant too!

If there was nothing covering the mana fluctuations, Jason was confident to see these fluctuations over a distance of more than 1,000 meters, detailed at that!

As such, Jason entered the narrow, hidden path which he had found, carefully.

Even if his mana eyes were almost perfect, Jason was still uncomfortable with the thought of encountering beasts similar to the Untraceable Drakes that his mana eyes couldn't perceive through their completely concealed mana cores and mana fluctuations.

However, this didn't hinder him from walking through the narrow path with fast strides.

He was still careful but Jason was also aware of the fact that maneless beasts or beings that could conceal their mana completely were very rare.

If he were to act slow and overly cautious on every occasion, he would waste too much time, too many times.

The narrow path was filled with strong mana currents and Jason felt energetic, absorbing them while walking through the path for more than three hours before he saw a bright light at the end of the path.

Refraining from rushing towards the entrance to the reclusive area, Jason used his mana eyes to see how the surrounding area looked like.

This was important to see whether the area he would enter was placid or currently filled with ferocious beasts, tearing each other apart.

Surprisingly, what his mana eyes perceived was weird. Not only was the area littered with several dozen dying beasts at the late-Unblemished rank but there were still more than a hundred beasts fighting against a small group of humans and beasts.

'Should I take a look?' He asked inwardly, not knowing what exactly he should do right now.

However, Jason had to leave through the narrow path either way!

As such it might be better to encounter a small group of humans!

It was not like everyone in contract with the Jual family would be bad because the group he encountered prior to them didn't seem hostile either!

Jason entered Mythic Garden's reclusive area with his pseudo-mana grade-2 light longsword unsheathed, ready to fight at any time.

He knew that it might be unnecessary but it was still better to be on the safe side than dead.

Dazzled through the light, his eyes required a few seconds before they adjust to the bright sunlight that was a strong contrast to the dark, narrow path.

Taking a look around, he saw that the surrounding area was a large jungle with many tropical-looking trees, bushes, and plants.

Everything released strong mana fluctuations and Jason was sure that there was not a single, cheap bush or plant around him.

The mana in his surroundings was also much denser and purified to a certain extent which astonished him a little bit.

However, before he could awe the reclusive area further, Jason noticed that the small group of humans with their soulbonds seemed to be in a prickly situation.

This was because they were fighting against a large group of Thunderstorm horses at the late-Unblemished rank.

There were even two Magical ranked Thunderstorm horses that fought against the only Lowest Lique stage in their group!

Fortunately, she also had a Lowest Lique stage soulbond, which was equivalent to the low-Magical rank that was fighting with her against the two lowest Lique stage thunderstorm horses.

Their fight was on equal terms and nobody was overwhelming anyone which caused the fight to stagnate.

Unfortunately, this couldn't be said for the other young prodigies who were at the peak-Master rank, fighting against more than 100 late-Unblemished thunderstorm horses at once.

Out of the four youths at the peak-Master rank, there was only one who was able to fight against the Thunderstorm horses head-on.

Rather than that, one could even say that he was stronger than them, while the other three youths were being overwhelming which caused the youth with blond hair and blue eyes to fight against everyone alone.

Staring at this youth, he noticed a shocking familiarity that was proven correct when he noticed that this youth was the one he had already encountered after he entered the Mythic Garden.

His light affinity was amplified by his physique that had been refined and only now did Jason realize that there was a small beast on his shoulder.

It was a white meerkat with faint blue stripes on it.

This meerkat was at the initial phase of the Lique stage which it showed by manifesting thin, compressed needles of light it shot towards the thunderstorm horses.

They were unable to evade the needles of light that pierced through them without any resistance.

After Jason saw this, he was confident that the small human group would come out victorious without any issue.

This was, as long as the thunderstorm horses at the lowest Lique stage were unable to overwhelm and kill the young female prodigy that was also at the Lique stage.

In the end, the only disadvantage the small human group had was to face or evade over a hundred attacks, manifested out of the thunderstorm horses' thunder affinity.

While three out of four peak-Master ranks were overwhelmed and injured the same happened to their soulbonds that were weaker than Jason expected.

Only the blond-haired youth with the light affinity was balancing out the other's seemingly shallow strength.

However, Jason also noticed that this youth was unable to use versatile attacks which one might use against multiple opponents at once.

The meerkat was restrained to manifest light needles, spears, and other means to attack single individuals one after another, while the youth with his light affinity was proficient in using his spear.

'Is that the light affinities' disadvantage?' Jason asked inwardly when he saw the young woman at the Lowest Lique stage was injured by two compressed thunder strikes.

This would change the tides of the fight completely and Jason couldn't help but sigh as he took the pitch-black mask he received from Shane out of the spatial ring.
