Chapter 243: Dissolving (2)
A/N: Sorry for yesterday, caught cold.
***
Even if a 100000-year-old spirit beast, the Ghost Lightning Condor's specialty was it illusion-attributed white lightning. The greater the frequency of lightning strikes in a region, the stronger the illusion to the point that even a 1000000-year-old Yin-Yang Petals had to ruthlessly strike Ah Yin's mind while she protected herself. But for this absolute affinity with illusion and lightning speed came at a cost of general endurance and physical strength. While stronger than most spirit masters physically due to the virtue of being a spirit beast, Ghost Lightning Condor is weaker than most 100000-year-old spirit beasts when it comes to physical qualities. That's why even with such an advantage, the spirit beast hadn't revealed itself.
Now that Ah Yin's domain was spreading with the infusion of spirit energy from the Devil's Bark Left Foot spirit bone, she considered her options. She could use her sixth spirit ring but then she won't be able to utilize it again in 12 hours and even if the illusion is countered and struck the condor, who's to say it's going to be an absolute attack? As a master of illusions, the Ghost Lightning Condor is also extremely resistant to such mental plays and sheer lightning strikes only increase its overall combat ability. So, the terrain was also in the beast's favor.
"Get lost! Get lost!" The condor screeched, its wings constantly generating static shocks that collected into arcs of white lightning that struck Ah Yin's dome of the blue silver vine in an instant. As the vines charred, more and more vines bunched up over the destroyed one.
"While it's showing a lack of patience, it's shrewd enough to pull me into an illusion during a warning attack. This act of impatience may just be to bait me into a trap," Ah Yin narrowed her eyes. But she also feared that if the remaining three spirit beasts decided to descend then even escaping would be a task on its own.
A severe time constraint was recognized in an instant.
"What would Ja Sun do?" Ah Yin thought briefly. She could imagine Ja Sun directly intruding upon the three spirit beasts instead with the Ghost Lightning Condor chasing since illusions didn't work on him.
This caused Ah Yin to track another line of thought, "What would Ja Sun do if he had my resources and spirit skills?"
First thing, Ah Yin realized, Ja Sun would totally feel gleeful at the prospect of another 100000-year-old spirit bone due to the word losing not even in his stream of vulgar speech. Aside from the spirit bone, the condor's corpse could be useful, too. Again, unlike Ja Sun, Ah Yin wouldn't just hoard the things she didn't find any benefit from. After all, she easily shared her half of their immortal herbs and this spirit bone had a great chance of being given to others from her team. Probably Hu Lana. As for the corpse, she wouldn't gift it to Ja Sun but trade it since he has the necessary resources for that level of the transaction.
'It's certainly doable... the might of a million-year-old spirit ring is not something a 100000-year-old spirit beast can easily defend against, especially the physically weaker ones.'
Ah Yin ignored the constant screeches from the outside and began to think of various ways. Even though she can fatally wound the spirit beast, she needed to have absolute precision to not destroy the body of the Condor too much so that it can be used later on.
If the Ghost Lightning Condor could hear Ah Yin's words, he would have absolutely gotten enraged!
---
"Her domain keeps on expanding," Ghost Lightning Condor remained under the assumption that the growth of the blue silver plants indicated the reach of Ah Yin's domain. The Condor continued to flap his wings but felt innately suppressed when under the enemy's domain. Although the suppressive effect of Ah Yin's domain wasn't its greatest factor, it was still present. The condor glared sharply in Ah Yin's direction before reconsidering his approach.
No spirit beast at this level wouldn't be smart, especially the Ghost Lightning Condor who has had to rely more on its smartness than his physical strength to survive and grow until now.
Seeing that Ah Yin's vitality was mind-boggling and his major life-threatening attacks came from the subsequent mind plays once his lightning made contact, the Condor instantly decided to return and notify the other spirit beasts keeping guard.
With a single flap of its wings, the condor ascended yet its pace came to a screeching and painful stop.
'Huh?'
The Condor's head tilted and it saw crimson blood dripping from multiple tiny holes from its wings. Due to the constantly dripping blood, the condor failed to notice that the size of the puncture wounds over its wings happened to be petal-shaped.
'When was I attacked? From where?' The condor looked around cautiously but didn't move again. If he couldn't see the attack and there was no indication of it then it only meant that the owner of the attack went out of her way to hide it.
'Hidden... and I was injured the moment I moved. Not to mention her domain...' the more the condor thought, the greater the fear growing in his heart. This may just be a trick from his opponent. After all, even if a spirit beast turned human, the opponent should not have the level of strength that can harm a 100000-year-old spirit beast. So, if this attack really was a trick then it must directly counter his traits and the only way to get out of it safely was by figuring out the trick.
At this moment, the condor saw from afar and through the mist that the dome Ah Yin had covered herself in was slowly blooming, soon revealing her figure as she still stood horizontally with her left foot stabbed into the mountain.
*Zap*
The condor attacked in an instant. The thin arc of white lightning strangely... disappearing right in front of Ah Yin as if something devoured it completely.
The chill in the Ghost Lightning Condor's heart grew up by a notch but Ah Yin suddenly looked in his direction and smiled eerily, "If I were you, I wouldn't move."
"What did you do?!" The Condor questioned angrily. This was another difference between humans and spirit beasts, Ah Yin realized. The Condor was truly expecting an honest answer, Ah Yin knew. But, she had greater consideration.
"You're not the only one capable of camouflaging within the mist," Ah Yin narrowed her eyes. A low level of camouflage is one of her domain's abilities and the mist around them also helped her. But even after hearing Ah Yin, the condor felt a strange sensation of unrest as if he wasn't battling a fellow 100000-year-old spirit beast but someone much stronger. As if on a completely different level!
"You hid your attacks?!" The condor instantly questioned only for Ah Yin to sneer.
"I didn't. She did."
Ah Yin suddenly controlled the slowly rotating spirit ring divided in white and black hidden behind her with its shape smaller than a toothpick as a phantom of a beautiful bush of blooming flowers appeared in front of her. The petals of the bush were either black or white. However, the Condor's gaze was attracted to the unique spirit ring rotating around Ah Yin as she kept the pressure of her million-year-old spirit ring within her domain.
At this point, multiple white and black petals turned visible around the Condor as it looked at them with awe. He was surrounded by such petals but the sharp-eyed Condor could still observe a few spots through where he could escape.
"This is a spirit beast who made a contract with me and is very much alive," Ah Yin added. Every single thing she did had its purpose at the moment and she waited for the opponent's reaction before speaking again.
"Let me go." The condor stated somberly, "And I will leave this mountain without trying to fight you for the essence of the Thunder Hell Prison Vine."
Ah Yin narrowed her eyes and the petals around the Condor shot in his direction.
*Kaaaaaa*
The Condor screeched loudly and shot towards Ah Yin, expertly dodging the petals that seemed to have a strange dissolving force and shot out lighting at Ah Yin continuously.
However, it suddenly found its gaze turning sideways... no, upside down? Wrong again, it turned normal once more.
Ah Yin plainly jumped towards the direction of the condor as it was suddenly beheaded. Its head spiraled down only to be caught by a vine that finally turned more visible, its color shifting from white and black to blue-silver, and as a strange shockwave was produced at this moment that pushed away the mist quite a bit.
The strange shockwave didn't affect Ah Yin who stood on an extended platform of Blue-silver vines and stored the body of the condor in an instant, only leaving a crimson spirit ring floating in the middle of nowhere.
This was the effect of Ah Yin's seventh spirit ring.
Blue Silver Goddess True Avatar and the Dissolving Petals
The true avatar allowed the user to increases their spirit, mental, and physical attacks and defense by 2 times regardless of the level.
But Ah Yin didn't have enough energy for this true avatar and instead pushed all her reserves in the second skill from the million-year-old spirit ring.
The dissolving petals formed a shroud of black and white petals that dissolve anything it touches. It was used expertly by Ah Yin to dissolve the attacks of the condor and also camouflaged.
Strictly speaking, this wasn't an attacking skill but a control-type skill since she left obvious spots in the attack for the condor to move in. This allowed Ah Yin to finally consider one course of flight that Condor took and use the skill through her domain. Her blue silver vine temporarily took the same attributes of the dissolving petals and beheaded the condor in an instant.
Although amazing, this technique also had its restrictions. If an attack happened to be at a level greater than the skill itself, i.e. the level of a million-year-old spirit ring then even if the attack is successful, the effect of the skill will be reduced relative to the opponent's strength. This could be covered up by the effect of her true avatar. Alas, the condor wasn't anywhere near Petals' level.
What came next was something that isn't technically common knowledge. The death of the 100000-year-old spirit beast caused a forcefield to erupt that would keep any other human or Spirit beast away but Ah Yin wasn't interested in the treasure of the spirit world and simply acquired his body, gaining a core and a spirit bone alongside a rather unbroken corpse.
Not staying in one spot any longer, Ah Yin quickly dig out a cave using her vines and then concentrated her camouflage in a discreet corner as Petals continued to scout their surroundings. Of course, the dissolving demise of the Ghost Lightning Condor would attract the attention of the remaining three beasts but this would also give Ah Yin the chance to understand her opponents. As long as she remains in the dark while her opponents are in the light, she would have a higher ground. After all, her seventh spirit skill was a true trump card that directly threatened any 100000-year-old spirit beast if used correctly.

"She's doing so well..." Ja Sun muttered and then looked at the tumor-like flesh once again before resolving himself.
A million-year-old external bone... Ja Sun wanted to see what would become of it and if it really just caused him to grow tumor out of some part of the body then so be it. A large amount of energy will also be fully stored within his Immortal Buddha King Core to upgrade his rank efficiently later so it will be worthwhile.
Not waiting a single moment longer, Ja Sun spread his spirit energy and interacted with the strange spirit bone. The moment his spirit bone crawled over to the ball of flesh, it suddenly moved and expanded violently. But as it expanded, Ja Sun could feel its size being compensated by hollowing out from within yet what surprised him was the thin tendril of purplish flesh suddenly latched onto this index finger.
*Sssssss*
Even with a demi-divine physique, Ja Sun's skin began to melt at a pace visible to the naked eyes.
Painful!
He was being skinned alive as the terrible, toxic flesh began to cover more and more of Ja Sun. His expression, however, remained stoic. It wasn't the pain that moved him. It was hardly noteworthy to the current him. What made him feel extremely depressed was that his skin held something else.
'I'm going to get bald, aren't I?' Ja Sun scowled, 'Fuck!'
To think he would lose his luscious locks—
His thoughts came to a sudden end as he instantly felt how wrong he was.
His body shivered as his balls and penis were getting skinned alive.
"My lords!" Ja Sun gasped, his body spasming as it was confused regarding what Ja Sun should truly feel.
Pleasure?
Pain?
Or both?
Soon, Ja Sun found his body encased by purplish, thicker flesh while he sat onto the pool of his own melted flesh and blood.
