The Chronicles of the Immortal God - Chapter 298
Chapter 298: Demonic Unicorn
Will Fang Lin allow himself to be captured like that? Of course not, but he was still curious on what these men want from him.
But with the signal cord on his wrist, Fang Lin will find it hard to use any abilities before it can be detected.
“Then why not just use two at the same time? The signal cord might detect that as just one use!” Fang Lin smiled as he decided to bet on that.
First, he circulated the qi on his body as he attempted to employ a self-explosion. Fang Lin was sure that the signal cord will detect that.
He decided to make the preparation for that explosion so massive, that the signal cord will be focused only on this.
Fang Lin used every scrap of qi on his body to make sure that his attempted self-explosion will appear as fatal as possible.
“Hehehe….”
But while he was doing that, he also activated one his Essence Cores as he decided to use its ability.
Since the signal cord was preoccupied with the surely fatal self-explosion that Fang Lin was building up, it might not be able to detect the essence core ability that Fang Lin will use.
And that Essence Core was of that of the Demonic Unicorn.
As everyone knows, a unicorn was one of the purest and most innocent Divine Beast there is. They are so innocent that they only allow virgins to ride them.
But the Demonic Unicorn was the quite opposite.
It is unscrupulous, sly and quite mischievous. It usually plays fatal pranks on poor practitioners that it takes fancy too.
It is known to be a scheming villainous Divine Beast whose goal was to wreak chaos upon others. In terms of category, a demonic unicorn is a chaotic evil.
There was even a story where a Demonic Unicorn pretended to be a normal unicorn, enticing some virgin women to interact with it. Once they did that, the Demonic Unicorn decided to show its real form, kidnapped the women and brought them to its lair.
There, the Demonic Unicorn acted like a tyrant, making these women its servants. These women were only saved when one of the fathers of these women rushed to the demonic unicorn’s lair and fought battle with it.
The father prevailed at the end, marking the end of these certain Demonic Unicorn’s reign.
But that story already made the Demonic Unicorn as a tyrannical character.
But even with that kind of reputation, Fang Lin still chose the Demonic Unicorn for his Horse Form because of its abilities.
The ability of the Demonic Unicorn was to create powerful and sometimes realistic illusions. These illusions were the things that allowed the Demonic Unicorn to mess with others in the past.
Now, Fang Lin was employing its use.
As for how the illusion ability works, it was just quite simple.
First, Fang Lin must choose something to sacrifice in order for him to conjure a ‘realistic’ illusion. The more complex and more realistic the illusion that he will create, the higher quality the sacrifice must be.
Only after employing the sacrifice that Fang Lin can conjure the illusion.
Regarding his situation today, Fang Lin decided to create an illusion of his own body! This means that Fang Lin wanted to make an illusion that will look like himself.
Fang Lin’s original goal was to fuse his body to Fang Yu in order to temporarily leave the prison.
But if he does that, these guards will be suspicious on Fang Lin suddenly disappearing. That will not be good, since he also wanted to get information from the Head Warden.
So Fang Lin will leave behind the illusion of his body so that it will act for him.
With the Demonic Unicorn’s abilities, this illusion of Fang Lin’s body will be extremely realistic!
Not only will this illusion look like Fang Lin, even its aura, behavior and movements will be similar to Fang Lin.
And unlike other illusions, this realistic illusion of Fang Lin’s body was so real that it can be even touched!
This was the ridiculous illusion prowess of the Demonic Unicorn.
The only problem with this body is that even though it will be a realistic illusion of Fang Lin’s body, it had zero combat abilities.
The illusion will only emulate Fang Lin’s appearance, body structure and aura. But since this was only an illusion, it’s just there for appearance! This illusion body was just ultimately an imitation of Fang Lin, something meant to fool people, not fight them.
In other words, the illusion body that Fang Lin will create cannot fight.
This limitation meant that Fang Lin meant that Fang Lin could not just create thousands of illusions of his body to fight an opponent since none of these illusion bodies will be able to deal any damage at all.
The best these illusion bodies can do was to serve as distraction, given their extreme similarities to Fang Lin.
But as long as Fang Lin trains properly, it will be possible in the future to create an illusion of his body so realistic that it can fight too!
That was the ultimate goal of any illusionists, especially the Demonic Unicorn. But sadly, there are no recorded cases of this happening yet.
Another reason that Fang Lin will not spam this illusion ability was the fact that the more complex the illusion was, the more important the sacrifice must be!
Anything can be chosen as a sacrifice, even things that are theoretically hard to sacrifice.
In this case, Fang Lin had to sacrifice his libido in order to create an illusion of his body.
Fang Lin’s libido will be gone as long as he keeps his illusion body running.
His libido will only return once Fang Lin disperses his illusion.
But this might have a good benefit for him, since Fang Lin could not afford to be distracted on this mission. By removing his libido for the time being, Fang Lin might be able to perform his task more efficiently.
Seeing that one body requires his libido just to work, then what will Fang Lin sacrifice to make an illusion of something more complex than a body like a town or even a planet?
Fang Lin had shivers just by thinking about that.
“Fizzz….”
Fang Lin suddenly felt slightly hollow, as if he lost something inside him. He knew that his sacrifice had been accepted already. As a test, he tried to remember the fun times that he had with Xue’er, but it felt like he was just watching a bland movie. He did not feel any arousal at all.
Once he confirmed that the sacrifice worked, Fang Lin immediately created the illusion of his body before fusing his body with Fang Yu.
“Woosh!”
The whole process happened within just a second.
“Boom!” It was at this moment that one of the wardens of the prison arrived. It received the signal from Fang Lin’s cord, telling him that Fang Lin was about to self-explode.
The warden, knowing the importance of Fang Lin, rushed here personally to stop him.
To the warden’s relief, Fang Lin seemed to have stopped his attempt.
The warden then watched as the hand chop by one of the guards landed on Fang Lin’s neck.
“Thud.”
There was a slight thud as Fang Lin who was in the sac fell on the floor, turning unconscious with that chop on the neck.
“Ok. Haul him to the Head Warden. She has her tools ready. She wants to ‘do’ him now.” The warden said as he walked away.
“Yes sir!” The two guards saluted as they dragged the sac towards the Head Warden’s room.
Both guards felt pity for Fang Lin as they knew that the Head Warden loves using creative ways to obtain information from people.
“Good luck old man.” The two guards said before leaving the sac in front of the Head Warden’s room. The two guards then did not waste time as they ran away, leaving Fang Lin behind. They were clearly scared on meeting the Head Warden personally.
******************
“Torture? Oh my, that really is bad…” Fang Lin muttered as he stretched his body on the bed.
He was able to leave his illusion body on the prison while he fused with Fang Yu.
Now, Fang Lin’s original body was here in the Goddess’ Planet.
With his original strength here, Fang Lin’s confidence was slightly restored, despite the fact that he was shaken earlier by the death of Orias and his companions.
“Just what is that black arm….” Fang Lin muttered to himself as he stood up from the bed.
Tang Li was back with Genie, as they continued tormenting the prisoners. Andromeda on the other hand was sleeping, evidently tired by the chain of events.
“…”
Fang Lin cricked his neck as he decided to meet Shax right now. That large, black hand made Fang Lin slightly anxious right now.
Talking with Shax might be able to enlighten Fang Lin about more things on this planet.
Of course Fang Lin will not blindly trust that man, as that Shax might have prepared traps on their meeting place.
“Sigh.”
Fang Lin sighed as he decided to create one more illusion of his body. This time, this body will be the one who will meet with Shax.
For this body, Fang Lin decided to sacrifice his ability to move.
Actually, he can just sacrifice his appetite, but Fang Lin knew that Shax has talent with illusions.
Shax might be able to detect his illusion if Fang Lin just sacrificed his appetite.
So Fang Lin decided to sacrifice more than necessary so that his illusion will appear more realistic.
“Thud.”
Fang Lin fell down on the bed as his second illusion body left the room, heading towards Shax.
“…”
Much to his dismay, Tang Li suddenly came out of the storage. Tang Li looked at Fang Lin, who lay unmoving on the bed.
Right now, Fang Lin’s body donned the appearance of Fang Yu.
This means that he had Fang Yu’s pretty face and body as he laid unmoving on the bed.
Anyone who sees him like this will definitely try to take an advantage of it. Tang Li was no exception.
“Poke poke.” Tang Li poked Fang Lin’s cheeks, trying to elicit a reaction from him. Upon seeing that he did not react, Tang Li decided to slap Fang Lin’s hips, stomach and chest.
With his body unable to move, Fang Lin was not able to retaliate even a little.
Tang Li then let out a mischievous smile as she realized that Fang Lin cannot move, no matter what she did.
“What’s with that noise?” Andromeda muttered as she stood up from her bed. She was woken up by what Tang Li did.
“……”
“……”
“……”
Andromeda then saw and realized Fang Lin’s inability to move.
Both Andromeda and Tang Li slowly approached the inwardly panicking Fang Lin.
“I did not realize this day will come Fang Yu. Now, I will pay back with all the name-calling that you did to me before.”
“Letsh pway Sis!”
