Palpable Tension
Intersection was a beautiful city, and unlike many other cities in the world it didn’t have the problem of overcrowding. There weren’t that many slums, and the people were well taken care of. Intersection’s walls were tall and fortified with barriers that hid it from the outside world. So even if one was able to go past the three Great Mountains, they wouldn’t be able to get into Intersection without permission.
At the centre of this grand city was a large palace. The palace was built with red stones similar in structure to White Stones. They were strong and tougher than White Stones, and could only be breached by Nightmare Level Powerhouses! This palace was the home of the Barbarian Lord and his family. And it was this very same palace that housed the Barbarian Ancestors whenever they were present in Intersection.
Currently the most important men and women of the Barbarian Race were gathered in this mansion. They were all gathered within a larg

Hunters: The Prequel Entering the Dark Valley
Dark Valley: a land that flowed with blood and reeked of death. It was located in the furthest part of the wilderness and was said to be a place protected by the gods. There were many legends about the place, but perhaps the most famous of them all was the Legend of the Fruit of Immortality. It was believed that Dark Valley was a land that grew the mythical fruits called Fruits of Immortality. It was believed that when this world was created, an Immortal Tree was born with it. And this tree bore Immortal Fruits every 200 years. It was also believed that anyone who ate of these fruits would live forever. It was said that the reason why Dark Valley was so dangerous was because there were powerful beasts christened by the Creator of this world to guard the tree. Apparently these powerful beasts were the ones that dealt with every person who entered Dark Valley.As for how such a legend came about, it was likely because of the fact that even from far away, people could see a towe
Hunters: The Prequel Fire Phoenix
“That’s the last one,” Mane stated as he tossed a humanoid creature onto the ground. This creature was shaped like a human. It had arms and legs and even a face. However its arms were longer than the average human’s, and its fingers held sharp and pointy claws. The ugly beast was stockier than an average human but shorter. The creature was green with very thick skin, and had pointy ears. Its eyes were the same color as its skin, green, and its teeth that were exposed from its open mouth were sharp and pointy. This creature was called a Green Goblin.Once the dead goblin fell onto the ground its body was engulfed in crimson flames that swallowed it whole. The flames lit up the dark environment, and several other burnt up corpses could be seen littered all around the place. The corpse of the beast was quite tough, for it took more than three seconds for it to burn up completely. And this was a magnificent feat considering that Mane’s flames couldn&
Hunters: The Prequel Running Into A Crystal Monkey
Mane and Lily rode their Red Maned Horses side by side. Naturally because of Mane’s ability to sense everything around him once they were within 500 meters, he was able to engage in casual conversation with Lily without worrying too much about being caught unaware by a sneaky beast. The light from their second Light Grass illuminated their surroundings and allowed them to see what was ahead of them and around them. They came across a lot of goblins, and so far they had been able to handle them fairly easily. Mane mostly burned the goblins they came across with his father’s technique, Fire Phoenix Flames. He was basically using them to train his fire proficiency. Of all his elements, Earth was the one with which he had the highest understanding, and although the elements weren’t skills, one’s level of elemental mastery was measured like one measured skills: Beginner Level, Intermediate Level, Mastery Level and Full Mastery Level. Earth and Water were the only

“To think that we would meet a Crystal Monkey here,” Mane smiled bitterly and said. Unlike Lily he still had his blades sheathed. Which meant that he didn’t feel that the Crystal Monkey was life threatening.“I have never seen one before. And I have been to several worlds.” Hildegarde stated as she admired the beautiful beast. Although the Crystal Monkey definitely wasn’t here to make friends with them or invite them over for tea, Hildegarde was gazing at the creature with a slightly infatuated look on her face.“Wish you could take it with you?” Mane smiled and teased.“Actually, yes,” Hildegarde smirked and replied. Her reply almost had Mane laughing, but ultimately the presence of Lily was enough of a reminder that he was not alone here. He didn’t want to explain why he was laughing all of a sudden like a crazy person. It wasn’t like he could use Lock-On for that.Crystal Monkeys w
Hunters: The Prequel Battling the Crystal Monkey
*Bang**Bang**Bang*“I can’t believe it,” Lily still had her sword in her hand, but she wasn’t using it. And it didn’t look like she would have to. She was stroking the mane of her mount, Skimpy. Her eyes were glued to the figures charging at each other from within the darkness. The two were like bright flickering lights, bringing warmth to this otherwise dark space. They clashed over and over again, neither really gaining an advantage over the other.Lily wasn’t fond of fights but what was happening before her was unbelievable to the Elemental Princess. And it was because she could feel Mane’s aura as he fought with the Crystal Monkey – barehanded!“How is he able to face that beast with his strength only at the 1st Stage of the Profound Realm?” Lily wondered. That was what she found unbelievable. She couldn’t accurately judge the strength of the Crystal Monkey because s

The large pearl-like eyes of the Crystal Monkey were slightly dazed. However, once it felt its newfound strength coursing through its veins it was excitement that filled its being.*Roar*It gave a loud roar filled with elation as the power of an 8th Stage Earth Realmer was fully unveiled. Its body trembled slightly with excitement and the cracks that Mane had inflicted on its chest began to heal. It still lay on the ground, but its large eyes were now glued to the human who stood on its chest. This usually demeaning action didn’t seem to annoy the Crystal Monkey. For it only looked at Mane with gratitude and with a bit of curiosity.“What an interesting fellow,” Mane was astonished by what had just occurred. He used Devour to suck out the Edict from the earth around them and transferred it to the Crystal Monkey, hoping that it would aid in its recoveries. After all, it was a Pseudo Legendary Class Magical Beast. A beast of that leve
Hunters: The Prequel Displeased Barbarians
“We are here,” a group of 15 men and women were at the entrance to the Dark Valley. Most of them wore nothing but trunks and small top with weapons of varying sizes and types hanging on their backs or strapped to their waists. Some had swords strapped to their waists. There were light sword users and heavy sword users. There was even a woman with a zweihander strapped to her back. There were also people with axes and hammers. There were also about two of them who had spears clinging to their backs, and two more with clubs made from pure metal. Yet the one thing they shared in common was their auras. Each of them had the aura of a powerhouse. Some had auras denser than the others, but of all of those here none was weaker than a Pseudo Nightmare!Of the fifteen, 5 were at the High Level of the Pseudo Nightmare Realm. Another 5 were at the Peak of the Pseudo Nightmare Realm. And the last five people were at the Nightmare Realm! Of the five who were at the Nightmare R
Hunters: The Prequel Matriarch
“Are you sure it was okay to let them go?” a man clad from head to toe in a large black cloak spoke in a raspy voice that showed signs of ‘un-use’. As if he wasn’t pleased with the way his voice sounded, he cleared his throat several times. The man was tall and had a sword strapped to his waist. He wasn’t alone, and his words weren’t meant for himself. Next to him was another person also fully covered in a black cloak. He was referring to an ambush that they had set up. They ordered some of their top class teams to tail and intercept a group of Barbarians and whittle down their numbers. And the mission had gone off without a hitch. However, now he wondered if it was the right thing to do when they could have just killed off the entire group.“Yes,” the person next to the tall man replied. This person was different from the man. For not only was she a woman, she was an old woman. Her back was slightly bent and her hunched f
