BXBX NOVEL Chapter 21 - Making The Move
An armored golem was standing before the boundary of the black smoke.
It held a black heavy spear in its right hand and a heavy black blade was attached to the waist using a stone belt.
It held a dark black metal chain in the left hand which was tied to a big stone vat, even bigger than the golem itself.
The golem was carrying this Vat on its back a big gourd was also tied to the vat .
Even though the gourd was not as big as the vat, it still had half its size.
The black chain that was used to tie stone vat and gourd was the Shackles of Maya, which had once sealed the Evil sword.
It was a few days ago, when Sam suddenly had a feeling that someone was observing him.
At first he didn't see any living creature nearby, so he used his spiritual sense and then he found that there was something like a snake on the ground and it was staring at him.
It could perfectly hide itself at times and disappear completely.
When the chain saw it had been seen through, it became visible ones more.
It stood up like a snake and started wagging its tail like a dog.
In the beginning he was really careful with the chain, but the chain acted like a homeless puppy that was following someone kind to find a shelter .
But Sam couldn't adopt this puppy, because it had an owner and that owner might have attached a tracking device to the collar of this puppy.
And sooner or later he or she could come and find him one day, which will most probably be disastrous for Sam.
The chains were diligent and kept on following Sam, it started helping Sam slowly with different chores.
The chain could increase and decrease its size according to its will, but the process cost a lot of energy.
It was really a good helper and it would fetch anything that Sam asked instantly.
The backside was he had to supply the energy from his dantian.
Sam also understood that unlike the sword which acted like a grown up person, the chain was like a little kid or a growing weapon spirit in it's puberty.
Even Though young the chain was still a super weapon it was invulnerable to anything.
It was not at all affected by any of the mountains, even though it couldn't go inside of these weird mountains as some kind of formation was stopping it.
It could move on the mountains easily without getting affected by the heat, cold or space distortion.
One day Sam had also found that it could go out and come in through the boundary as it pleased without activating the formation.
Which made him further ascertain that, this might be another top tier treasure that the owner had left behind.
Sam had deliberated many times whether he should take the chain with him and came to the conclusion it is better to leave it behind.
But in the end he didn't abandon the chain, he thought if the person who created this place was really a super power as he imagined.
Then the person would surely have multiple ways to track him down and it wouldn't matter whether he had taken the chain or not.
Sam thought " At least this guy helps diligently in almost all the matters, unlike someone whom I have personally rescued and is ungrateful and more of a burden...."
.....
Sam has been standing before the boundary for 5 minutes , taking a long sigh he walked forward without turning back in firm determination.
" good bye friend, even if not intentionally you still provided protection to me in this dangerous place ... Thank you "
These words lingered at the boundary of the black smoke.
Without waiting for any new variable to appear, he used Earth skipping technique to move towards the burrow.
Within a minute he was standing before the burrow .
Even though his Earth skipping was little affected by the black earth, he could still skip about 9 meters easily.
What made this technique more valuable was that this was a continuous technique and if one was not stopped one could gain continuous acceleration bringing the person's speed to an unimaginable level .
This was because as his speed increased, the force he exerted on the earth also increased which further increased the speed like a continuous cycle.
But once his speed crossed a certain limit, he was unable to control the direction properly and one skip might take him to a place beyond the coverage of his spiritual sense ...
He put down the stone vat and the gourd to the side of the cave entrance.
The Shackles of Maya detached itself from the vat and gourd slowly and wound itself on the golem's right hand like an arm protector.
A black sand storm started forming around the golem.
This was the third technique that he created.
He created a total of 4 techniques from the inspiration he gained through the brown fruit.
Earth skipping technique an agility and speed focused technique...
Earth golem technique an attack and defense focused technique...
Sand storm technique, a wide area affect and micro control focused technique...
One with the earth technique an escape and scouting focused technique ...
