Novel Full Chapter 820 - Twilight
Chapter 820 - Twilight
It was a rather known fact that bloodline genes would be able to be stirred and stimulated not just through gene purification, but also through a severe emotional outburst.
Remorse, sadness and anger. These were the emotions that were wreaking through Emery's mind at the moment. Conveniently or not, these emotional turmoils was also the necessary key Emery needed to push and break through the bottleneck he experienced ever since his gene essence had reached 30%.
[Your Bloodline went through changes]
[Bloodline limit breakthrough]
Just like the previous instances, at the moment of breakthrough, Emery caught a glimpse of a figure within his mind. A massive wolf figure with half of its body seemingly covered by shadow while the other by light.
A seemingly perfect embodiment of union, as it howled loudly, Emery could understand the message it wanted to deliver across, as it immediately popped into his mind.
"Devour and Life."
This time, however, Emery felt a huge pressure coming from up above. Lifting his head, he saw that the moon in the sky was shining brightly, before it suddenly turned red as blood and the atmosphere abruptly turned somber.
It was a terrifying sight for others, but within him, Emery felt something majestic. He instinctively knew its presence brought strength to the wolves and therefore included himself.
[Battle power increase exponentially]
[Battle power has increased by 20 points]
[Calculating ancestor blood essence percentage…]
[Analyzing genes]
[31% Twilight Fey Wolf essence found]
[Fey Wolf Bloodline evolved to rank 6]
[Rank 6 - Fey Warlock]
There was a sudden surge of spirit force that rushed towards Emery's core, intending to enter. However, its advance was quickly blocked and then floated around his two cores in a mist-like form.
When Emery saw the peculiar sight unfolding within his body, he quickly assumed it was because of his 1,000 points of spirit force. That surge of spirit energy was denied entry because his cores couldn't take anymore. Fortunately, the emerging spirit energy seemed to be able to stabilize itself.
Meanwhile, in the next second, Emery felt that now his physical form's turn to receive the next round of boosts.
His body grew and enlarged, just like when his [Night Transformation] was in effect. Jet black fur swiftly emerged from his skin and covered him from his arms up to his shoulders. Mysterious intricate tattoos began to appear on his chest and neck, while the fang tattoos under his eyes became even more pronounced.
Finally, the change caused his hair to be very different from his usual self, becoming completely silvery white. Moreover, the color of his eyes also changed and started to emit a golden yellow light.
[You have just activated a new innate ability]
[Twilight Transformation]
[Battle power increased by 50]
[Battle Power 234 (316)]
With the completion of his new transformation, not only did his [Jade Skin] reform, as if nothing had happened, Emery also suddenly possessed the strength to resist the molten chain that bound him and break free from the restraints by destroying them altogether.
CRACK!!
Emery stood there, as the blazing molten chains crumbled powerlessly around him. His body was full of energy, brimming with seemingly unstoppable strength.
Emery's current form - the [Twilight Transformation] was certainly a combination of both the overwhelming battle power the [Night Transformation] and the extraordinary spirit force the [Day Transformation] granted.
At the moment, Emery was experiencing a miraculous sensation throughout his entire body. It was as if he had been reborn.
The warden was entirely dumbfounded when he saw the spell he was so proud of broke apart so easily.
"Impossible! This must be some kind of trick!" It was clear the man was very rattled by what he was seeing, to the point he started spouting whatever he was thinking. "No, no! A rank 8 can't break free from my spell. There's no way you are rank 8! That must be it! You must be a magus!"
The warden once again cast [Molten Serpent], this time manifesting twice the previous number and looking much stronger than before. Emery, on the other hand, just slowly brought his right hand to the air.
His palm was facing the warden, as he was about to cast his spell of preference, an epiphany suddenly came to his mind and caused him to modify the spell before it took effect.
Emery did slightly change the spell and, as a result, its effect. The time needed to use the spell lengthened a bit, but the power it possessed increased exponentially, as the previously hardened dark roots were enveloped in a greenish glow.
Without him noticing, Emery mouthed the spell he had just cast.
[Jade Binding Root]
The now glowing green, dark roots swiftly moved and blocked the incoming group of molten chains, under the shocked gaze of the warden and his subordinates, it managed to stop it.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The roots Emery had created were still being burned by the molten chains, but this time they managed to recover as quickly as they burned. This meant the chains could not pass through and reach Emery, who was protected behind.
"Impossible! It's simply not possible!" The warden yelled in disbelief.
It was only moments later the man realized his disgraceful appearance and, out of embarrassment, he quickly told his dozen subordinates to attack.
Though somewhat hesitant, the dozen or so saint-level guards still followed the order and quickly began transforming in order to boost their strength. After their transformations completed, each of them took out their weapon of choice before charging towards Emery simultaneously.
Seeing them brandishing weapons at him, Emery quickly raised his other hands. More jade roots swiftly shot up from the ground and slithered towards the incoming group. It didn't take long for them to clash with each other.
With their variety of spells and artifacts, they managed to cut down and destroy some of the roots. However, no one from those twelve people managed to approach Emery. No one.
Instead, one by one they were taken down by the jade roots. When one of them got completely strangled by the roots, the others would try and help but instead only found themselves being embroiled as well.
Emery smiled as he controlled and watched as the roots thrashed the guards against their will. He never had so much fun with a spell before. This wasn't just because the spell had been improved, but also because of the tremendous spell power boost that his transformation bestowed.
On the other hand, the warden was utterly speechless watching his subordinates getting played around. This was the first time in his entire life to see a rank 8 acolyte have such an absurd strength.
"Ugh! There's no way this is true! It was all a trick!" The man had become delusional.
Knowing his prized spell [Molten Serpent] couldn't tackle Emery's roots any longer, the warden seemed to have decided not to underestimate his opponent anymore and finally give his all.
Emery watched as the bald man suddenly tore off his clothes and let out a loud roar, before his body started to change and metallic red scales appeared on his skin.
"Sshh… You..." The warden glared at Emery as if he was a sworn enemy. "...will definitely die!"
Those were the last words the man spoke, before Emery suddenly felt the other party's battle power rise rapidly and saw the man once again transform to an even larger size. In the end, the warden's figure was no more, being replaced by a 20 meter long monstrosity of a snake with blazing metallic scales.
Seeing this, Emery quickly threw all the bound saint-level guards aside and prepared himself for the upcoming battle. A battle-thirsty grin appeared on his face, as he stared at the creature before him.
This fight should be sufficient to blow his anger away.
