Chapter 96: The Power of the Netherworld
After Xiao Yi finished speaking, he handed the red spider lily to Zhu Zhuqing and motioned for Zhu Zhuqing to take it.
Zhu Zhuqing was a little dazed as she looked at the red spider lily. She couldn't understand why such a precious thing was given to her just like that. You know, if this magical herb was placed outside, people would definitely snatch it up, but in Xiao Yi's hands, it was given to her just like that.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yi looked at Zhu Zhuqing who was in a daze and didn't respond to the red spider lily and asked.
"No, this is too precious." Zhu Zhuqing came back to her senses and replied.
"It's okay. This thing is for eating. Since you have become my woman, and this thing suits you, just take it." Xiao Yi said.
Zhu Zhuqing hesitated for a moment after hearing what Xiao Yi said, but still accepted the Netherworld Red Spider Lily.
"Now that you've got it, just absorb it directly. There's no outsider here anyway." Xiao Yi said.
"Yes, Zhuqing, just refine it. After the refining is completed, you will be level 30. Then you can go to settle the marriage contract and obtain the soul ring at the same time. As for the academy, put it aside for now." Dugu Yan said.
After hearing what Dugu Yan said, Zhu Zhuqing naturally stopped being pretentious and simply sat cross-legged on the ground to begin refining the Netherworld Red Spider Lily.
Three hours later, Zhu Zhuqing woke up from refining the Netherworld Red Spider Lily.
After Zhu Zhuqing finished refining it, Dai Mubai, who was far away in Soto City, felt as if something was missing.
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing's condition was very delicate, and her aura appeared and disappeared intermittently. If it weren't for the fact that their eyes could see where Zhu Zhuqing was standing, everyone would have thought that Zhu Zhuqing was not there.
"Huh? What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Zhu Zhuqing said confusedly after opening her eyes.
"Uh, Zhuqing, look at yourself." Dugu Yan said.
Zhu Zhuqing was stunned when she heard Dugu Yan's words, and then she felt something different about herself.
First of all, it’s the figure. Zhu Zhuqing’s figure was already good enough, but after taking the Netherworld Bianhua, her curves made it more comfortable to look at, and the overall proportions were more coordinated.
Then the soul power has reached level 30, but because of not obtaining soul rings, the soul power is at a bottleneck. I won’t say more about this.
The biggest gain was that Zhu Zhuqing felt as if she had mastered other powers, but she didn't know what it was, so she subconsciously tried it.
Zhu Zhuqing's figure disappeared from the original place in an instant, and then appeared somewhere else the next moment. Zhu Zhuqing felt that this ability was particularly interesting, and he was in high spirits and tried it several times.
Moreover, she felt that the martial soul fusion technique was disconnected and she could no longer sense the existence of the White Tiger.
Xiao Yi and the other two looked at Zhu Zhuqing flashing around and felt that their brains were not enough, so they just spoke directly.
"Zhu Qing, stop for a moment. What benefits did you gain from refining this red spider lily?" Dugu Yan asked.
Zhu Zhuqing stopped when she heard Dugu Yan's question, sorted out her gains, and then began to tell her story.
"First of all, my soul power has reached level 30, but because I don't have a soul ring, I'm stuck at a bottleneck. Only after I get the soul ring can I know what level it is now."
"Secondly, I feel that my martial soul level has been improved. Now I can no longer feel the existence of the martial soul fusion technique."
"The biggest gain is this. I don't know what it's called, but now I can hide in another space and then appear in another place like I did just now, and I've also awakened a domain." Zhu Zhuqing explained. "The effect of the domain is to form a fog within 50 meters around me and summon a shadow. The shadow has 60% of the combat power of the main body. When there is only one enemy, the damage of sneak attacks is increased by 50%. The vision of enemies in the fog will be affected by the senses, the defense of enemies in the domain will be reduced by 15%, the damage and penetration of teammates will be increased by 10%, and my own speed will be doubled. And I can also switch positions with the shadow." Zhu Zhuqing explained the effect of the domain.
"And this is just the most basic level. It will evolve slowly," said Zhu Zhuqing.
After listening to this, Xiao Yi felt that Zhu Zhuqing had acquired more abilities than just this. Logically speaking, the ability of Netherworld should be very strong.
"The netherworld, the underworld, and the underworld represent the place where the dead live. They are called differently, but they are the same place."
The power gained by combining the Netherworld Red Spider Lily with Zhu Zhuqing's Netherworld Spirit Cat should be very strong, so he decided to try whether the ability he had imagined existed.
"Zhu Qing, I won't use my martial spirit to attack you. I feel that you can do more than just hide. Maybe you have other uses." Xiao Yi took out a dagger from the soul guide.
"Yi, let's not do that. It would be bad if Zhuqing gets hurt." Dugu Yan said.
Although Dugu Yan also wanted to see if he had any other abilities, she couldn't help but feel worried when she thought about Xiao Yi's strength.
"Am I that unreliable? I will control the power and make sure Zhuqing can react." Xiao Yi said, patting his chest.
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Xiao Yi and hesitated for a while, but the look in Xiao Yi's eyes did not show any intention of harming her, so she nodded and agreed to the request.
After getting Zhu Zhuqing's consent, Xiao Yi directly used his mental power to control the dagger and attacked Zhu Zhuqing.
Looking at the flying dagger, Dugu Yan clenched her fist nervously. Although Xiao Yi had promised, Dugu Yan was still afraid that Zhu Zhuqing could not dodge it.
The dagger quickly flew in front of Zhu Zhuqing, but Zhu Zhuqing was not afraid. Instead, she summoned her soul power.
The dagger went straight through Zhu Zhuqing's chest. You read that right, it went straight through her chest, just like it passed through air, and Zhu Zhuqing didn't even move.
Dugu Yan and the other girl saw that Zhu Zhuqing was pierced by a dagger, but her clothes were not damaged, and Zhu Zhuqing did not even hide just now, so they turned to look at Xiao Yi and waited for Xiao Yi's explanation.
Zhu Zhuqing was also confused as she saw the dagger piercing through her body but she did not feel any pain and was very confused.
Xiao Yi watched the dagger penetrate and confirmed what he was thinking.
So Xiao Yi organized his words and began to explain: "You are curious about what happened just now, right? The dagger had clearly penetrated Zhu Qing's chest but he was not hurt, and Zhu Qing did not disappear."
"This is one of the powers of the Netherworld. Her body briefly enters the Netherworld. Simply put, she has entered an invincible state at this time. In this state, she cannot touch others, and others cannot touch her. In other words, she has become virtual."
After he finished speaking, Xiao Yi felt it was outrageous. The domain could summon shadows, and the shadows could be exchanged with the original bodies. Plus, with the ability to become hollow, when the levels were raised in the future, wouldn’t it be just Obito plus Madara?
Zhu Zhuqing felt very amazed at this moment. A magic herb could allow her to gain so many abilities. If it were her, she might not have this opportunity in her life. If she had not met Xiao Yi, at most she would have fought against Dai Mubai and then lost to her sister and been killed. Now with Xiao Yi, she had the magic herb, her soul power was improved, and she could comprehend the underworld. What else could she be dissatisfied with?
