Poison God's Heritage

I took a breath, a deep one. Fortunately, my lungs still worked as usual.

I released a poisonous gout of fumes, that spread in every direction. It was not deadly, but it was certainly harmful to any living being. Even more so to those that could breathe.

The poison cloud spread out rapidly around me, causing the grass to turn brown and wither. Anything it touched wilted, decayed, and turned to dust in mere seconds. As it came in contact with the two tigers, they snarled and began sneezing. Their eyes watered as numbness and pain from the poison exposure took over their senses. They shook their heads trying to clear the abnormal condition and growled as they backed away slowly.

I scanned myself again and didn't seem to find anything wrong with me. No paralyzing poison, no suppressive force, and nothing stopping me from moving. This was awkward, why can't I move?

Slowly, however, I was able to move my fingers, then my arms. Then soon was able to sit up.

It was slightly awkward as if I had forgotten how to move.

"The hell is happening to me right now," I cursed as I stood up with difficulty.

I looked around. There was a large, dark forest right in front of me. I was on an open prairie just at the outskirts of the forest with nothing else nearby.

There were some animals in the distance, some of them far larger than what I was used to - but they were clearly just animals.

From the forest up ahead, I heard the rustle of leaves in the wind, and the calls of small critters and animals.

I let my bright divine sense spread out in all directions, as my eyes glowed a brilliant green.

The aura of my Divine Sense had a pale green color that was now visible to the naked eye. It spread swiftly around me, in the shape of a dome. Giving me information about every worm, every rabbit, every predator and every cat girl in sight.

Wait, cat girl?

I focused my divine sense in a spot and the woman from last time turned towards me then a wide smile on her face was plastered.

She went on all four and shot forward like a speeding bullet train toward me.

This was dangerous!

I retracted my divine sense and was about to turn to leave when the bushes in front of me parted open for her graceful figure as she jumped right on top of me slamming me into the ground.

I was ready to blast her away with my poison breath before she nudged closer took a sniff from my face and said, "You smell different. Even I smell different here..."

I frowned at her statement. I thought that she was aggressive, but there was not a hint of such intent or deceit in her.

"How are you able to move that fast?" I asked.

She tilted her head and her ears perked up, "What do you mean? It's how I always move," she said then she stood up from on top of me.

She then locked her fingers and held her hands up, stretching, "Ahhh! Such a good day," she spoke all casually as if the situation we were in was of no concern to her.

I stood up, with great difficulty as my body was barely responding to me, perhaps I'm in some sort of shock after being transported here.

"Where are the rest of your companions?" I asked.

"I don't know," she replied casually, "But they should be fine on their own," she added.

She then turned to me, with her eyes scanning all around me, "But where are your companions?" she asked.

"Same here I don't know, but let me find out," I said as I placed my hand to my side to take something out of my holding bag.

Only to realize, with great distress, that my holding bag was gone.

"Oh, same happened to me, someone stole my bag," she said, "It's not here, see," she said pointing at her very boisterous and full chest.

I shook my head, "Stop trying to charm me, I don't like it, also this isn't good if someone had taken our bags, or maybe you took it when you jumped me," I said.

She frowned awfully cute though, "I don't steal, also why would I want your smelly bag, I have all I need in mine," she said and turned to the forest.

"I smell something," she said.

"What are you, a dog?" I blurted.

"Don't look down on a cat's sense of smell, someone with the same smell as us is far deep in the forest and they're not having a good time," she said, "I also smell blood."

"Shit, let's go then," I said as I took a step forward, "God damn it what's wrong with my body!" I cursed as I took strained step after step.

"We'll arrive there by the time they are dead at this pace, let me go get them," she said.

And suddenly she bolted forward.

After a few seconds, I heard the sound of trees crashing and falling down.

Cursing, I summoned the Poison God's book. Though my holding bag was stolen, I didn't mind it much, since the more valuable things I possess are within the Poison God's book.

However, even the book didn't manifest.

"What the fuck is going on in here?!"

Feeling helpless and completely vulnerable I started thinking dark thoughts.

I'm fully incapacitated, unable to move or fight back if attacked. I don't have access to the Poison God's book, meaning I can't call Y, X, or Z, nor can I use the hoverboard.

"Automaton!" I called

But nothing showed up, not even the Lord of Lord's pagoda is available right now.

I cursed at how feeble I felt right now. Then I focused up, I slapped my sides and for a second I thought I was done for. But then the giant metallic arms came up from my sides.

"Nice at least I have these," I said.

The four arms were long enough that they were able to carry me and function as my legs.

I used them to move forward, two arms to move and the other two to beat down and break any tree boulder or bush in my way.

I was like a moving bulldozer as I moved forward.

Soon I came upon the body of one of the cultivators from the Fire Palace.

His face was fully charred and crushed along with the rest of his body.

In the distance was something that looked like a turtle, it was red and massive in size and seemed to have a miniature volcano carried on its back.

The turtle was looking up at one of the trees. I followed its gaze and saw the cat girl from before, holding on her shoulder the fainted Liang Yu.

"It's a dangerous turtle," spoke the cat girl, "Also those arms look interesting, can you show them to me later?" she said with a smile completely ignoring the Saint Class Beast in front of her.

"RUN!", I spoke.

The turtle opened its mouth and shot a fireball at the tree where the cat girl was on.

The cat girl wasn't even phased by the blast and waited until the tree almost hit the ground before she jumped with Liang Yu on her back and then rushed forward past me.

"You better run too, it's angry," she said in a wide smile.

And I wasn't going to argue with that, because the turtle seemed to be gathering energy this time in its small volcano like back.

I turned and used all four arms to run forward breaking past trees and rocks alike.

A loud explosion echoed out and it was coming my way.

"This way!" I heard, and when I turned, I saw the cat girl diving into a hole under a gigantic oak tree.

I moved towards the hole and dove into it.

The explosion echoed out and rattled the very ground we were under. But thanks to the thick and powerful roots of the tree, we were safe. Although very shaken up.

The ground kept rumbling, but it seemed that the turtle was moving away – which meant we were somewhat safe.

"Damn that was close," I said as I took a wide breath and then walked out of the tight hole, we were in.

Looking around, there didn't seem to be any forest fires, even after that flaming explosion happened. Not a single branch was singed nor was a single tree set ablaze.

This place is strange...

"That was a fun-looking turtle," she said all smiles.

"You're a bit whack," I said.

Tilting her head she said, "What is a whack? Is it something interesting? Like those arms?" she asked as she pointed at me, ears all perked up and eyes wide.

"Ah... This will need some explaining, who are you though?" I asked then moved one of the arms on me to check up on Liang Yu.

"I'm Lin De, one of the daughters of De Huang," She said.

"Oh...the Earth King...and you're a Princess, interesting..." I said.

"Not a princess, the princess is already chosen, I'm just a daughter, anyway what are those arms?" she asked.

"Sub-Dimensional Bionic Arms," I replied.

She tilted her head the other side with one ear flopped and the other perked up, "What does that mean?"

"Spare arms that I can hide in a different dimensional space. I can't move for some reason, so I'm using these to walk and move about. Anyway, let me check up on Liang Yu," I said as I placed Liang Yu carefully on the ground.

"Are you a physician?" she asked.

"Not quite right I'm more like a doctor..."

"Doctor? Doctor Who?"

"That's Copyrighted! No, Doctor isn't my name it's a title, I'm... never mind, you can call me Shen."

"Okay Shen, interesting Shen, what do you do? Can you cure her?" she asked.

I sent a Divine Sense wave around Liang Yu and said, "No, I can't," I replied.

"Then are you a 'Doctor' if you can't cure a person?"

"I can't cure her, because she is fine and awake. Hey, stop pretending to be asleep!" I said and tapped Liang Yu on the forehead with my knuckles.

"Ow, that hurt!" she said as she rubbed on her forehead.

"Why were you playing Dead? The monster is already gone," Lin De said to Liang Yu.

"I was just making sure that mister here was not planning on adding more women to his harem," she said.

"Harem? You have a harem, just like my dad?" she asked me.

"No, and no!", I said to both of them. Man, this feels like the beginning of another headache.

"Also, how come you can move easily?" I asked Liang Yu.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm still fully paralyzed since I woke up, I can only breathe, but I can hardly move my body. I have nothing physically wrong with me, but I still can't move. Also, do you have your holding bag on you?" I asked Liang Yu.

She looked to her side and said, "Apparently not..."

"God damn it... I really don't like this cave..."
