Wilderness: I Tame Beasts to Survive

Chapter 405: Chapter 278: Silent Watch, Ghost Twins

Fei Lin’s face was taut. The black veins covering her body receded, reforming into a menacing gauntlet on her right hand.

At this moment, the Artifact Spirit that sustained the Biological Armor’s Spirituality had transferred to the Flesh Puppet, Hom. Its single, bloodshot eye was squeezed shut, as if it were dead.

"Eee..."

A hazy red mist, visible to the naked eye, seeped out from the now-solid forms of Fei Lin and the Star Dream Unicorn—from their cheeks, abdomens, and limbs—and began to rapidly swirl around them.

Their unique ability was that their bodies could freely switch between a flesh-and-blood state and an Undead form, granting them immunity to physical attacks.

"Hrrn~"

The Star Dream Unicorn’s large, bright eyes remained fixed on its master, Fei Lin. It was the first to transform, its dark, unicorn-like form completely dissolving into a mass of mist that pulsed with a deep crimson light.

Fei Lin followed suit, her slender form gradually dissipating into the air.

"This?!"

Unlike with Yin Yi and Egg Pancake, Han Ning was witnessing a completely different method of evolution in Fei Lin.

A little over ten seconds later, the gossamer-like red mist began to change color.

The precious Curse Materials Yin Yi had previously placed on all four sides were disturbed by the Spirit Absorption Array below. A powerful Spiritual Pressure stirred them, shattering them into ink-black specks that floated in mid-air. These specks were then drawn toward the blood mist that had been Fei Lin and the Star Dream Unicorn, converging into it. Within the underground hall, they formed four ribbons of debris, like tethers of pure Darkness.

The color slowly shifted from the dark red of blood to a blackness that held a faint glimmer, giving it a profound and mysterious aura.

The ribbons floated to a spot three inches before where the foreheads of Fei Lin and the Star Dream Unicorn would have been, merging into what looked like a spinning nebula.

Immediately after, within Han Ning’s Spiritual World, a primal, instinctual hunger surged from the Star that represented Fei Lin.

The next second, that craving abruptly transformed into an endless, vicious torrent of malice.

A cacophony of negative emotions detonated like a bomb.

In an instant, his Spiritual World was violently scoured by a torrential tide of negative emotions.

Han Ning’s pupils dilated slightly.

A faint, dark gleam flickered in his brown eyes.

This dark gleam held an incredibly intense malice, one that seemed to want to crush everything in the world and grind it underfoot.

"This is the negative influence from the Curse Materials! Suppress it, quickly! Otherwise..." Hom, sensing something was wrong with Han Ning, looked on with concern and hastily sent out a warning with his Spiritual Power.

As the mental "words" were being sent, Han Ning suddenly turned his head, his gaze filled with vicious hatred as he stared fixedly at Hom.

But in an instant, the venomous, raging aura vanished from Han Ning’s eyes without a trace.

’Phew... That was a close call. Luckily, my Spiritual Power is strong enough.’

Han Ning’s expression turned serious. Pearly white Starlight emerged from him, faintly swirling around his body.

An invisible wave of Spiritual Power formed a small vortex, suppressing the intense negative emotions within the four Curse tethers to an extremely low level.

’According to the panel, Curses can’t be subjected to Purification. They can only be suppressed for Fei Lin to absorb bit by bit. This step is crucial—it’s the key to her evolution!’

With the Curse Power within the materials forcefully suppressed by Han Ning, the pressure on Fei Lin lessened rapidly.

The fragments of material in the four jet-black Curse tethers no longer lingered around her. Instead, they broke down into fine particles, invisible to the naked eye, and plunged into Fei Lin’s blood-mist Body like moths to a flame.

Gradually, a spiraling ribbon of dark purple light replaced Fei Lin and the Star Dream Unicorn. Their bodies seemed to have completely merged into this slowly rotating band of light.

The spiral of light gradually became transparent, revealing a complex skeletal structure taking shape within.

Then—the skeletal Growth was complete. Scarlet blood flowed through transparent vessels, and a dense neural network spread from the brain and spine throughout the body.

Afterward, as Spiritual Energy washed over the form, organs, skin, and hair began to generate.

Behind the Energy Body, the shadow of a large steed with a long, spiraling horn on its head gradually solidified, like a guardian spirit appearing behind the new body of flesh and blood.

"NEIGH~"

An ethereal cry suddenly rang out in the vast, empty underground hall.

The sound was like the song of a nightingale echoing from a deep, dense forest on a silent night.

It was also like a faint melody drifting in from outside a window as one hovers on the edge of sleep.

Just hearing it made one’s entire body relax. It created an overwhelming desire to find a place to lie down for a long, comfortable sleep, ignoring all the love, hate, and grudges of the world.

Even for Yin Yi, a Half-Elemental Life form, the flames burning in her eyes began to waver, flaring and shrinking as if she were struggling between sleep and consciousness.

A heavy drowsiness crept over Han Ning’s mind at the same time. The Spiritual Shield automatically constructed within his consciousness immediately materialized as a web of faint lines, blocking the distant, ethereal cry.

Meanwhile, the bloody mist continued to gather rapidly in the air.

First, light and shadow flickered, forming the pattern of a massive, slowly blooming dark purple flower.

THUMP THUMP THUMP~

The dark light rapidly extended both upward and downward.

Head, neck, shoulders, torso, limbs, legs, and feet.

In an instant, a slender figure a full two meters tall, emanating a deep, muted dark light, appeared before Han Ning.

The dark light slowly receded, replaced by the soft sound of two feet touching down on the floor.
