Vol.1 The Astral Plane: The Beginning

Ch.13 Into the Underground Forest.

Thorpath - Son this forest that your going into is no cake walk. We gave gathered millions of beast from the Danger Zones from all five zones. The underground forest is blockaded so that no beast can attack our underground palace. While at the same time blocking other genius from trying to break out. This forest is block from all sides. Its just huge cube. The walls are thick so that nothing can break out. The only way to leave is to go through the gate that we will pass through in awhile. We also have some warriors that walk around the edges of the forest, just in case someone tries to dig their way out of the forest. Even the strongest beast will need a few hours to break out.

My son your probably wondering what the use for this is. The use for this is to put you in as many life and death scenarios as possible. As soon as you start your Ki cultivation. This creates stronger warriors while weeding out the weaklings. Be careful in there my son. Don't trust anyone else because other genius children will try to kill you. In this forest their are also some monsters that have develop enough intelligence to create clans. They are the most dangerous things in this forest, especially the ones that have develop their own Ki techniques. In the forest some children have stolen from those monster and manage to gain a scroll. These scrolls are very rare and special. These scrolls are why other children will try and kill you.

Yusuke - thank you father for this valuable information.

Thorpath - your soul beasts should be here at any moment. Now its time to tell you, your spirit beast on this journey with you aren't allowed to use Ki and magic. They can only be there for the purpose to be spectators and help you as much as they can't without breaking this rule.

Moments later Argos and Leo arrive.

Thorpath - Okay lets start to run there or at this pace we won't get there for a few days.

Later that day they finally made it to the entrance.

Yusuke POV - The entrance is a red gate thats 10 meters tall, with a dozen guards in armor and their soul beast watching the gate.

Thorpath - Goodbye my son. Here a gift from me.

Thorpath use his interspacial ring and a 5ft long and 2ft wide sword come out. The handle has a white handle.

Yususke - Thank you father, and goodbye

A few days after they go into the forest

Yusuke POV - Damn, why are the monster so strong. I came here only a few days ago, but I've hardly had any time to rest. Its only my 6 day in this forest and I just had to meet a Pack of Kripkees. This group has over 30 of them and I can't even hit one because they fly away when I'm just about to hit one. Argos can't do anything so hes being protected by Leo. What am I going to do?
