YM778.TV Chapter 292: Chapter292:Magic Shadow Divine Arts
This aura puzzled her, but she dared not ask.
She stood quietly to the side, watching as Enzo placed his hand on the inheritance stone tablet. When his hand made contact, the tablet suddenly vibrated violently, its patterns shifting as light surged toward Enzo, eager like a pet reuniting with its owner.
"What… how is this possible?" Elsie was stunned.
As one of the few remaining members of Magic Shadow, she understood the nature of the inheritance stone better than anyone.
This was a bloodline tablet. Only those with the corresponding bloodline could access its inheritance, a common practice among all clans to prevent outsiders from gaining it. Yet, this mechanism failed with Enzo.
Even without a matching bloodline, he could still receive the inheritance.
Could he do the same with clans possessing rarer bloodlines and stronger inheritances?
Elsie\'s thoughts began to spiral.
Meanwhile, Enzo continued to absorb the inheritance of Magic Shadow divine arts. Bypassing the bloodline restriction wasn\'t overly complex—it stemmed from The World Tree.
After mastering the Soul Fortress divine arts, Enzo\'s soul had greatly strengthened.
He could now connect with The World Tree\'s consciousness externally, rather than needing to touch it directly. The World Tree, an ancient entity existing since the dawn of creation, possessed the bloodlines of most living beings.
Elsie, unaware of this, was deeply astonished.
Receiving the Magic Shadow divine arts inheritance didn\'t take long. Soon, Enzo withdrew his hand from the inheritance stone tablet, his eyes sparkling with surprise. He realized that the Magic Shadow inheritance was far more powerful than he had anticipated.
Turning to Elsie, he asked, "Shall we go out now?"
Elsie snapped back to reality and nodded.
As the Magic Shadow crystal consumed the many Shadows within the Magic Shadow space, Enzo completed the inheritance from the stone tablet on Magic Shadow divine arts. However, the Magic Shadow space began to destabilize, and it was likely to collapse soon. Staying any longer wouldn\'t be wise.
Additionally, there were still many areas in the Otrank Mountains left unexplored.
This experience also cleared up the tension between Elsie and Enzo.
Once outside the Magic Shadow space, Enzo turned to Elsie earnestly, saying, "If you encounter any trouble, just let me know."
His intention to help was unmistakable.
Elsie nodded gratefully but chose not to express her thanks immediately. Instead, she replied, "I will, but before asking for your help, I want to see if I can manage on my own. The inheritances in the Magic Shadow crystal are powerful, and the crystal itself is a treasure."
Hearing Elsie say this, Enzo nodded slightly and didn\'t say much more.
The two then left the resting place and set off towards another area of the Otrank Mountains.
…
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Furious thunder crashed down from the sky, pounding the ground and creating deep craters. The silvery lightning filled the air with an explosive energy, making everyone afraid to approach.
However, beneath that thunder, there was a massive creature.
It was a three-tailed silver wolf, sporting special markings on its forehead. The lightning seemed to strike the three-tailed silver wolf mercilessly, but it couldn\'t inflict any harm on the three-tailed wolf.
Around this strange phenomenon, a crowd had already gathered.
"This creature is just lucky. It somehow got its hands on the blood containing the essence of Eomaia\'s life. How many have searched for so long without finding it, yet he gets it so easily…" A man clearly felt jealous, unable to hold back his curses. However, in an effort to maintain his image, he ultimately chose to grumble a bit instead of outright cursing.
Others weren\'t so restrained.
Another person spoke up, "It\'s just a mindless beast. Even if it has Eomaia\'s blood essence, so what? Once this thunder dissipates and the creature completes its blood purification, it\'ll just be our prey!"
"Aha! This brother makes a good point!" Laughter erupted from the crowd.
Soon, the laughter spread.
Enzo and Elsie blended into the crowd, piecing together the situation from the conversations around them.
The three-tailed silver wolf under the thunder was merely an ordinary beast from the Otrank Mountains, but it had fortuitously consumed a drop of Eomaia\'s blood essence. This led to a transformation in the wolf\'s ordinary bloodline, gradually turning it into a supernatural creature.
Moreover, it wasn\'t just any supernatural being. Enzo felt a hint of threat from this three-tailed silver wolf, which was genuinely alarming.
If a single drop of Eomaia\'s blood essence could create such a powerful creature, what about Eomaia itself, or its flesh and other biological tissues?
At that moment, Enzo was filled with curiosity, but he refrained from acting rashly, instead quietly observing with Elsie.
After more than half a day, the thunder finally faded, and the ground below had become a patchwork of craters. The three-tailed silver wolf had also undergone significant changes. Its size had increased several times, and a mocking human-like expression glimmered in its eyes. It howled several times, then crouched down, revealing its sharp fangs, and lunged at the onlookers in an instant.
Such a behavior undoubtedly provoked the crowd.
"Looking for death!"
"The beast is just a beast, completely unaware of life and death!"
"Kill this wild wolf and refine the essence of Eomaia blood in its body!"
"..."
The crowd kept shouting.
But the shouting quickly turned into screams. The speed of the three-tailed silver wolf was simply too fast, appearing before everyone like a flash of lightning. Then, with a gentle swipe of its paw, it dismembered many people, who barely had time to react.
Enzo scanned his surroundings and sensed that the three-tailed silver wolf wasn\'t the most dangerous presence.
Some individuals had already hidden away, observing from the shadows.
Realizing this, Enzo said to Elsie, "Elsie, we need to leave. Don\'t get involved."
The three-tailed silver wolf was clearly the target of many. Although Enzo felt invincible after mastering the Magic Shadow divine arts, it was only temporary. From what Patricia had informed him, the temple had sent many people, and those individuals were unlikely to be ordinary characters. They were probably powerful deities.
The Temple of the Seven Gods had sent their people, but what about the other forces in the Underground-River starfield?
With a bit of thought, it was clear that this seemingly localized conflict in the Otrank Mountains had turned into a chaotic battle among major powers, possibly even involving immortal deities.
No matter how many divine arts Enzo mastered, he wouldn\'t survive in such chaos.
After all, his current level was still too low for that kind of battle.
Elsie didn\'t reject Enzo\'s proposal.
After obtaining the true inheritance from the Magic Shadow crystal, she was no longer interested in fighting for treasures in the Otrank Mountains. She just wanted to find a safe place to quietly comprehend those inheritances. Enzo\'s suggestion aligned perfectly with her thoughts, but as the saying goes, plans often go awry, and unexpected events are common.
Just as Enzo and Elsie were about to leave, the three-tailed silver wolf locked its gaze directly on them. Its limbs bent slightly, gathering strength, and then it leaped high into the air, pouncing toward Enzo and Elsie, claws slashing in midair.
"Looking for death!"
Enzo cursed angrily.
He hadn\'t intended to get involved in this situation, but the three-tailed silver wolf had chosen to confront him.
Faced with this, Enzo decided to stop holding back.
The Soul Fortress, towering like a mountain, came crashing down. Before the three-tailed silver wolf could reach Enzo, it landed heavily on the ground. It seemed to suffer no significant soul damage, just a momentary daze.
But that was enough.
In a battle between strong opponents, every moment is incredibly precious.
Often, it\'s in that split second that the outcome is decided, and this was no different. As the three-tailed silver wolf hit the ground, dazed, Enzo moved forward without hesitation. He gathered a fireball and a lightning ball, hurling them at the three-tailed silver wolf. This wasn\'t some powerful spell. It was simply a blast of elemental energy.
Yet, the elemental energy Enzo wielded was immense. As the two energy balls struck, the three-tailed silver wolf let out a painful howl.
At that moment, Elsie seized the opportunity to attack. Her body became ethereal, resembling a swirling shadow of gray and black. She swiftly glided through the massive form of the three-tailed silver wolf, leaving a long, narrow gash on its abdomen.The gash was constantly bleeding, and this blood contains great vitality. When it falls to the ground, it instantly grows numerous plants.
This left Enzo astonished. It was almost akin to Life Water.
It\'s important to note that the current Life Water was synthesized from The World Tree, and only Enzo had the ability to do this in the entire Starry Sky.
