Chapter 790: Chapter 261: The End of Extreme Cold (Two in One, Seeking Monthly Pass)_3
The Holy Alliance group, all five members, had harvested plenty.
Even Secretary Jin Xiaoxiao, responsible for the entire trip’s coordination, was lucky enough to contract a Sea Siren.
It was said the Sea Siren’s song could not only confound enemies but also heal allies, which suited her night owl habits well.
Soon, the group returned to the hotel amidst laughter, and everyone went their separate ways.
Back in his room, Lin Su lay on the bed, exhausted.
Days of exchanges and challenges had left him tired yet happy.
Fortunately, he would be going home soon, and by then, he planned to take a well-deserved break.
"Caw! (。⊙‿⊙。)" (Are we going back to Shenwu?)
Ghost Ghost approached Lin Su, blinking its big eyes.
During this period, Lin Su had exchanged technical knowledge with other researchers, and as his pet, Ghost Ghost had been present the whole time, covertly picking up on plenty of new theoretical knowledge.
Far from falling behind in its comprehension of Rule Power, this theoretical knowledge actually aided Ghost Ghost in its understanding.
Now, Ghost Ghost’s perception of Rule Power had reached the first stage, and the proficiency level of its core technique, Shadow Magic, had reached Rank V.
After reaching Rank V, Shadow Magic underwent an unprecedented transformation.
Having grasped the basics of the dark rules, from that point on Ghost Ghost’s Shadow Magic would no longer be confined to environments with shadows.
Its Shadow Concealment ability no longer required shadows; Ghost Ghost could open and slip into the Shadow Space from anywhere at any time.
Even surrounded by light, it could conceal itself with a mere thought!
The Shadow Lock ability also transformed significantly. Before, Ghost Ghost could only lock onto an opponent from their shadow and would be immobilized while doing so.
But from then on, after locking an opponent, Ghost Ghost’s real body could leave the shadow and attack while maintaining the lock!
When the Transform Shadow ability reached Rank IV, it could turn anything it touched into a shadow form immune to physical attacks.
At Rank V, a mere thought would allow it to turn any area within a certain range into shadow form!
Ghost Ghost’s ultimate sub-ability, Shadow Escape, had also changed.
Whereas previously it could transport someone into stealth, at Rank V, Shadow Escape could rapidly relocate everything within a certain area to another position.
With Ghost Ghost’s full effort, it could even transport an entire house.
Calling it a Home Moving Technique wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
A tool of the Ghost Stone Hammer indeed.
The Shadow Clone ability had also taken a qualitative leap.
From then on, as long as Ghost Ghost constructed a Shadow Clone, it could exist permanently like an independent entity and wouldn’t fade away naturally!
Moreover, the clones, which previously could only use Shadow Concealment, could now also use Shadow Lock, Transform Shadow, and Shadow Escape, the three sub-abilities of Shadow Magic.
Although still non-offensive, they had become much stronger support.
Quite some time ago, Lin Su had discovered that Ghost Ghost’s Shadow Clones seemed to possess their own consciousness.
This consciousness only emerged when Ghost Ghost and the clone were not in the same world and lost contact with each other, as if deliberately avoiding Ghost Ghost.
Therefore, although Lin Su was aware of the clone’s presence, he had never met it directly.
About this benign clone consciousness, Lin Su and Ghost Ghost had discussed and decided to let it be.
After the transformation of the Shadow Clone, Ghost Ghost left a clone in both worlds, hidden within Lin Su’s shadow.
This ensured that when Lin Su traveled between worlds, the clone in the world without the original could look after things, serving as a guardian.
Beyond the core technique reaching Rank V and undergoing metamorphosis, Ghost Ghost could now use the powers of the dark rules in every move, so all other dark-related abilities, despite unchanged proficiency levels, were more powerful to some extent.
Merely by grasping the first layer of the rules, Ghost Ghost had benefited tremendously.
It’s a pity that the level-eight Dark Crystal couldn’t bear the deeper dark rules power from the Dark Kirin.
As Ghost Ghost finished understanding the first layer of rules, the Dark Crystal naturally shattered.
Its energy was fully absorbed by Ghost Ghost, allowing its normal energy level to break through seven hundred thousand.
Ghost Ghost’s other level-eight item, the claw bone of the Shadow Ghost Dragon, hadn’t been fully absorbed yet, but Ghost Ghost, with its high dark-affinity Talent Skills, had already awakened a new talent ability, Shadow Ghost Claw, and its racial rank upgraded from a lower to a middle-tier Emperor species.
With the help of the Illusion Dream Stone, the freshly awakened Shadow Ghost Claw bypassed its infancy, forcibly raised to Rank IV, and shone brightly in the recent challenges and exchanges with the Holy Alliance Beast Tamers.
"Right, let’s sleep," Lin Su said, rubbing Ghost Ghost’s head and settling Youyou, preparing to pull Ghost Ghost back into the Beast Taming Space.
He then lightly patted his shadow and slowly closed his eyes.
When he reopened them, he was surrounded by a world covered in ice and snow.
"Brother Lin, you awake?" Lu Ziye chuckled, greeting Lin Su with a smile.
"Hmm," Lin Su curiously glanced at the sword in the Forging Furnace in front of Lu Ziye, which now had taken shape and looked wholly different, "Is your spirit weapon almost ready?"
"Right!" Lu Ziye puffed out his chest, his face beaming with pride, "The power of ice here is formidable, even higher quality than I expected. I decided to go all in and reforge my spirit weapon completely using the power of both ice and fire."
"Once it’s finished, it’ll be a quasi-medium-grade spirit weapon!" Lu Ziye chuckled, "Without reforging, on the day I breakthrough, it will naturally advance to a medium-grade spirit weapon."
