Chapter 1064
The Daemos elders told Adrian that the future is the most volatile of the timeline. It could change depending on the choices of the present and their choices are not determined. The choices of people could change the tide and that they could potentially be trapped in a timeline that is not following the main one.
This is type of reasoning also goes for the ones that have the ability to predict the future. They can only see the possible glimpse of the future as it has many possibilities. The Taowu that uses this ability only narrows it down to the future that it deems to be the most plausible. It is great but at the same time burdening when one can only see a dark future.
The Taowu regained consciousness, but Peridot once again used her dragon fists to pound the Taowu. This time, both Lycan and Kabrakan helped her in hitting the Taowu which made it scream it pain before briefly losing consciousness once again. For one of the Four Evils, it looks very pitiful right now as it is getting bullied by three people that are weaker than it in terms of level.
If others could see them then they might be shouted at for bullying a monster weaker than them. The Taowu continued getting knocked unconscious until it turned into particles of light. It emitted a pitiful cry before dying as it has received utter humiliation.
The only reason it could not finish off the three of them is due to the fact that its skills are sealed. It really is weaker when the opponents facing it are weaker than it and lesser in number. Even the last opponent of the Taowu was stronger than it when compared to levels and it could use most of its powerful skills.

"We finally won!" Peridot stated as she deactivated her Hybrid Ryujin Form.
Upon doing so, her body suddenly started to ache as she got overloaded with mana earlier from using the spell called Thunder God\'s Descent contained in the lightning crystal. She wanted to save that skill for later, but she knew that they might lose the battle if she did not.
The Taowu could predict their movements perfectly so the best thing that they could think off is to be predictable. They knew that the Taowu was very fixated on killing Peridot first, but it did not know that she was a Ryujin. She made use of the limited information that the field boss has to make sure that she could knock it down.
"The cost might have been a Mythical Tier gem, but it was worth it. Let us hurry and look for the things that we need." Peridot stated but she could hardly walk properly.
She had to summon Moksha in order to traverse the surroundings since her legs became weak. The backlash of a Mythical Tier spell that enhances the body is not something that she could easily make use of without detriments. She is lucky that she is only hit with severe body aches as a normal human will die from that backlash.
The three then hastily entered the ruined residence but soon noticed that nothing is there. Peridot tried using her senses to see if there are hidden rooms underground but all of it has caved in. Just as they thought that their efforts were fruitless, Lycan suddenly felt something is strange with a jade statue.
"Look at that thing! Are you not creeped out by that statue? It feels like it is alive somehow." Lycan stated as he pointed to a broken jade statue of a general riding a horse.
The general\'s body is no longer attached to the horse, and it is holding something up. Peridot tried touching the statue and she could feel something is really strange about it as it contains traces of energy, but she does not know which element.
"Can you guys find the other parts? I bet it is just near this broken statue. If we fix it, then we might find a clue." Peridot stated as the to other two hastily tried to search for the separate pieces.
Since they do not have a lead, searching for the pieces of the jade statue is better than nothing. Thankfully, the other people in the Den of Beasts are not bothering them because they concluded that the Taowu has already killed them. The fight did not last long which made them conclude that the Taowu did kill those that dared enter its territory.
"I found the other half of the general\'s body!" Lycan stated as he found the upper half in an area covered by rubble. It was really suspicious that it was not destroyed even when it was being flattened by heavier stones.
