Chapter 553: Chapter 12: Hidden Among the Fairies
The emerald beams of decay pierced through the shield like poisonous needles, striking Lynch squarely in the chest with precision! A cold sense of alienation exploded instantly, his flesh turning ashen and collapsing, while deep brown bark-like patterns crazily spread, tearing the skin and sucking away his immense life force.
The patterns of decay had already climbed up his neck, and his bones emitted faint moans. His soul was drowning in weakness and the stench of rotting vegetation—he seemed on the verge of transforming into a twisted, withered tree in the garden!
Just as Lynch appeared doomed to be buried here, a mark of time flickered in his eyes.
Immediately, a barely perceptible but extremely concentrated silver ripple spread outward from his body, gently enveloping the surrounding space within a few feet. Everywhere the ripple touched, it seemed as though an invisible hand forcibly turned back the frame of time by a notch!
The greedily spreading patterns of decay rapidly retracted as if in a reversed image! The withered skin became plump again, regaining its color; the splitting “bark” healed as before; the drained life force rushed back into his body. Even the lingering scent of decay in the air bizarrely rolled back.
In just an instant, the silver ripple vanished.
Lynch stood there completely unscathed, as if the harrowing transformation of decay had never occurred. His position subtly shifted back half a step, precisely at the moment before the deadly beam struck, when he had just turned his head with alertness, his gaze locking onto the peculiar fairy.
Only a faint trace of spatial and temporal fluctuation remained in the air, and the slightly tilted head of the strange fairy species, with its cold silver eyes reflecting an almost human-like curiosity, revealed the miraculous reversal of life and death moments ago.
Having successfully escaped certain death, Lynch immediately raised his hand and clenched it in the direction of the fairy.
“Imprison!”
With a buzzing sound, several semi-transparent light screens, flickering with complex space runes, suddenly appeared around the fairy!
They closed like precisely cut crystal prisms, forming a perfect cubic barrier that trapped the palm-sized fairy tightly within. The power of space flowed over the barrier, unbreakable and strong enough to confine powerful magical creatures.
The fairy inside the barrier seemed momentarily stunned. Its cold, emotionless silver-white pupils swept over the surrounding barriers, showing no fear, only a mechanical scrutiny. In the next moment, its slender arm made of vines and petals once again lifted, aiming at one side of the space barrier with its fingertip.
“Zzz—!”
Again, that point of intense emerald light burst at its fingertip! But this time, instead of shooting out, it collapsed and condensed upon touching the space barrier, transforming into a green thread finer than a hair and nearly invisible to the naked eye!
A bizarre occurrence happened! The seemingly indestructible light screen engraved with space runes unexpectedly melted open a tiny hole, like butter meeting heat, before that razor-thin green thread!
The thread pierced through without resistance, and the fairy’s entire body also turned into a blurred emerald stream, shooting through the needle-sized hole following the thread!
Lynch frowned: ’Has the magic failed again?’
Seeing that point of emerald stream about to vanish into the distant flowers without a trace.
At the critical moment, a peculiar symbol suddenly flickered in his pair of gray-white eyes, immediately locking onto the fairy ahead.
While these eyes gazed at the fairy, he saw a pair of large gray eyes also emerging within the fairy’s Spiritual Sea.
This was the Eye of Death God’s summon!
’Stop, sleep!’
Buzz!
With this deep voice resonating, a powerful and strange shockwave did not affect the body physically but instead penetrated directly to the core of the fairy’s cold consciousness, striking it fiercely! Like a boulder thrown into a silent valley, causing endless, layered echoes!
The rapidly flying emerald stream suddenly halted, dropping from mid-air like a kite with a broken string. For more chapters visıt 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝕟𝕖𝕥
Its body composed of exquisite petals trembled slightly, and the cold, silver-white eyes that occupied half of its face lost their ruthless gleam meant for attack, replaced by intense confusion and struggle.
The struggle lasted only a brief moment. Quickly, the confusion in the fairy’s eyes settled, becoming a blank stare.
It hovered half a foot above the ground, its wings fluttering weakly, completely ceasing resistance, like a puppet controlled by invisible strings, quietly awaiting the master’s order. Those silver-white pupils lost all their luster, as if they were dust-covered glass beads.
Under the amplification of the Eye of Death God, the power of soul resonance was significantly strengthened.
Having successfully taken control of this strange fairy, Lynch immediately reached out a hand, and the fairy floated towards his palm.
Holding the fairy, Lynch began to examine it closely, and after a thorough look, his expression turned peculiar.
“Forest Fairy?”
One must know, the fairy species before him had just completely ignored his defensive magic, delivering a lethal blow, and even easily broke through his barrier.
One would think it was a formidable fairy species, at least reaching the level of Second Tier Mystic Technique, yet the truth was eye-opening for Lynch.
Forest Fairy.
They are among the lowest fairy species, with power generally only at the Apprentice Rank, and even with exceptional cultivation, could at most reach the Wizard Level, their bloodline potential essentially capped at this level.
“Strange, no special modifications are visible…”
Lynch observed again, feeling even more puzzled. It was not impossible for a Forest Fairy to possess formidable power, through bloodline modification and enhancement, just like the Forest Fairy Shea he raised.
However, after careful observation, he did not find any special modifications on the Forest Fairy in his hand; it was truly an ordinary Forest Fairy.
“What’s going on… Hm? This is…”
At that moment, Lynch suddenly noticed a faint green energy emanating from the Forest Fairy. On reflection, during the previous engagements, it was precisely this green energy that had allowed the Forest Fairy to breach his defense shield and subsequently his barrier.
“This energy…”
Lynch raised a finger to cut out a small barrier in the air, enclosing the portion of green energy inside, and then opened his Elemental Vision to meticulously observe the energy within the barrier.
Upon this observation, Lynch finally found the answer.
“This… this is…”
Under Elemental Vision, it was clear that the elements in the green energy formed some specific and irregular arrangement, one far above his current secret skill level and completely novel and high-level.
This arrangement was unmistakably—
“Domain!”
