Chapter 437. Princess Nan Xi
A believer’s black eyes stared intensely, as if they could pierce through her soul. The star-skirt woman suddenly snapped back to reality, her imperious vertical pupils narrowing. She pursed her lips, displeased. “You are not allowed to call me Miss Evil Dragon!”
“Okay, Miss Evil Dragon, so do you know what a Spirit Artifact Body means?”
“!”
“You bad believer!” Di Si scolded inwardly, her expressionless face explaining, “That should be an ability of the Spirit Face Great Calamity.”
Spirit Face Great Calamity? Xia Feng felt the name was somewhat familiar. Before entering the Calamity Realm, King Pu Xiu seemed to have mentioned it. Huaze Tuo had been converted into a Calamity Eater by the Spirit Face Supreme two hundred years ago. This was a Supreme-class Nightmare God from the Imaginary Number Royal Court.
“The racial talent of the Spirit Face Clan possesses the ability to share human spirit artifacts. As long as they sign a contract with humans and complete a certain ritual, they can use human spirit artifacts. Therefore, this clan was very fond of raising humans in ancient times, trying every means to increase the probability of humans awakening spirit artifacts.”
“And the Spirit Face Supreme, as the god of the Spirit Face Clan, possesses the authority called [Spirit Face Calamity Solution].”
Mentioning Calamity Solution, Xia Feng recalled that he seemed to have learned about it before. Calamity Solution was a special ability possessed by Calamity Eaters due to the empowerment of Nightmare Gods, similar to Spirit Unsealing. It was an ability that could be used without learning or cultivation. The most well-known were [Bone Face Calamity Solution] and [Spirit Face Calamity Solution].
Bone Face Calamity Solution originated from [Bone Face Supreme]. Some Calamity Eaters with relatively stable souls, under the divine bestowal of the Bone Face Supreme, used their own souls and bones as sacrifices to fuse with a [Fetal Nightmare Beast]. After the fusion, the Calamity Eater would become the Nightmare Beast’s host body. The benefit was that they could command the Nightmare Beast’s racial talent. Xia Feng understood Bone Face Calamity Solution; the Spider Man he encountered before, with the bone spider on his head, should be some kind of Fetal Nightmare Beast.
Di Si continued, “Spirit Face Calamity Solution is when a Calamity Eater uses a spirit artifact as a sacrifice, allowing the spirit artifact to fuse with a [Low-level Nightmare Beast with less than four eyes]. The spirit artifact becomes the Nightmare’s physical body, and this Nightmare then possesses a Spirit Artifact Body, along with the spirit artifact’s abilities and the Nightmare Clan’s racial talent.”
“So, Spirit Face Calamity Solution doesn’t actually offer many benefits to Calamity Eaters. Bone Face Calamity Solution can even command the Nightmare Beast to some extent, but Spirit Face Calamity Solution is equivalent to giving one’s spirit artifact to a Nightmare Beast without being able to control it. The only benefit is that the Calamity Eater and the Nightmare Beast’s lives will be bound together, and the spirit artifact will be strengthened to a certain extent based on the Nightmare Clan’s racial talent.”
“Generally, the higher the spirit artifact level, the more pronounced this strengthening becomes.”
Listening to Miss Evil Dragon’s explanation, Xia Feng thought of the Heavenly Gift Great Calamity of the Burning Heaven Sacred Hall. Its authority was also related to spirit artifacts, but it directly turned spirit artifacts into living beings with consciousness. The Spirit Face Great Calamity caused spirit artifacts to fuse with Nightmare Beasts, making the Nightmare Beasts the consciousness of the spirit artifacts. Xia Feng had tried it; he could copy spirit artifacts under the effect of the Heavenly Gift Great Calamity ability. As for whether his copying ability would be effective on this Spirit Face Great Calamity, he didn’t know. However, no matter what, he would find out when the time came.
Xia Feng browsed around again and, after figuring out the direction of the Mei Ling Tribe’s royal city, began to move towards it. His secondary goal now was to find the Mei Ling Queen and try to ‘gift’ her a Dragon God Token to bring her under his command. Solve the problem from the root cause. Well, of course, this method was a bit far-fetched and difficult to achieve. Therefore, his primary goal was to find Huaze Tuo within 24 hours, snatch the Heart Calamity Demon Blood from him, and see if he could copy the spirit-faced spirit artifact. He just didn’t know what Huaze Tuo’s spirit artifact level was; he hoped it wasn’t too weak.
While contemplating, Xia Feng sped along the path. He saw numerous promotional posters for ‘Princess Nan Xi’s Grand Wedding’. He had to admit, the scope of this Calamity Realm was truly vast. He ran for ten hours, passing by unique cities, before reaching the outskirts of the royal city. He estimated that there were unique teleportation methods between these cities, but Xia Feng, to avoid alerting anyone, did not seek out these teleportation points. Along the way, he saw that every city was brilliantly decorated with colorful charming lights, and various plaza broadcast high platforms were built with charming phantom stones. The entire Mei Ling Calamity Realm was preparing for the grand wedding about to begin.
*
The Royal City, a certain castle.
On a dark and ancient throne, a woman in a wedding dress was leaning back. The wedding dress was designed in a noble and elegant Baroque style, with a silver-white, waterfall-like lace train trailing on the ground. Her fair, long legs were lazily crossed beneath the layers of ethereal gauze. She propped her delicate hand adorned with a light pink lipstick against her chin, her long, charming phoenix eyes glancing around, cold and displeased.
“Huaze Tuo, didn’t I tell you that before the wedding, you are not allowed to leave the royal city or cause trouble? Are you taking my words lightly?”
Below the royal platform, a man in a crisp white suit leaned lazily against a pillar. Huaze Tuo was accustomed to the woman’s tone. This Mei Ling Princess had long been conquered by his charm and deeply in love with him. However, the Mei Ling Princess was naturally arrogant and always looked down on humans, and naturally looked down on him as well. Huaze Tuo chuckled inwardly, his peach blossom eyes charming. “My dear Princess, are you worried about my safety?”
“Huaze Tuo, straighten your attitude!”
!
Princess Nan Xi’s gaze turned cold. Her exquisite face was filled with arrogance, and she said sarcastically, “You should consider yourself honored to be liked by this princess, as a mere human.”
“Buzz—”
A powerful pressure descended. Huaze Tuo’s expression slightly changed, and he immediately knelt on one knee, no longer daring to tease this arrogant princess.
“Is the human carrying a large amount of Heart Calamity Demon Blood dead yet?” Nan Xi asked casually.
Huaze Tuo straightened his attitude and said in a deep voice, his head lowered, “Not yet, we are still searching.”
“Useless.” Princess Nan Xi sneered, her exquisite face incredibly arrogant. “You don’t need to worry about this matter anymore. This princess will tear that lowly human to pieces and deliver them to you.”
“Yes.” Huaze Tuo replied respectfully in a deep voice, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. That rat with the spatial spirit artifact was probably out of luck. The Mei Ling Princess was different from other Mei Ling; she greatly disdained humans and would not rest until she had thoroughly tormented any human who displeased her.
“Buzz—”
Just then, the space vibrated. Huaze Tuo looked up. Above the head of the woman in the wedding dress, a three-dimensional eye outlined with black and white lines floated. The pupils of the eye were a cross of horizontal and vertical red lines, which were now rotating clockwise at an accelerated pace. A clear, red light wave rippled outwards, and the woman in the wedding dress slightly raised her beautiful eyes. The clear red goat horns on her forehead also lit up with a scorching red glow, emitting countless red threads that floated into the air and connected finely with the eye above. With a sudden pull downwards, the eye was pulled to the woman in the wedding dress’s forehead, fitting perfectly.
[Fusion Successful—]
[Time Consumed: 100 years, 16 hours, 3 minutes, 9 seconds]
[Spirit Face Contract Successfully Established—]
Huaze Tuo could feel that his life was now connected to the woman in the wedding dress, and at the same time, he had lost control of the [A-class Spirit Artifact · Eye of Misplacement]!
