1275: Shadow's Lethal Weakness

Shadow's Lethal Weakness

As such, Lin Yuan used Faith Application to fuse with Dark Blue.0

Shadow had been slightly embarrassed when Lin Yuan tousled its hair. It was about to say something when it saw Lin Yuan transform into its Dictator's body.

The last time Lin Yuan transformed into the Dictator's body, Shadow had only dared to peek at him once before averting its gaze as it was afraid that staring would be regarded as blasphemous.

But that one glance had etched the magnificence of Lin Yuan's Dictator's body into Shadow's mind.

Now that it was looking at Lin Yuan's Dictator's body again, Shadow was just as shellshocked as before. But at the same time, it felt nervous as it thought that something had happened to Lin Yuan.

According to legend, Dictators only used their Dictators' bodies when they needed to flaunt their might.

"Shadow, I want to use you to test one of my abilities. It won't put you in any danger, so you don't need to be scared. If you feel uncomfortable in any way during the experiment, let me know immediately. At the same time, I'll observe your situation carefully," said Lin Yuan.

Shadow anxiously said, "Lord Dictator, use me to test whatever you need. I might be small, but I'm as strong as can be."

Shadow stood at attention, completely unguarded, as it awaited for Lin Yuan to do whatever he wanted. It was its honor to be experimented on by its Dictator in Shadow's mind.

Lin Yuan flicked his tail, and faith power gushed out from the shrine in his soul.

His liquid-like long hair changed from dark blue to vibrant amber, and 12 pillars of amber water shot out from the ground near his feet toward the sky.

All the faith power within the pillars of water made Shadow's eyes widen to the size of sockets. It was astonished by the ocean of faith power possessed by Lin Yuan's Dictator's body.

Lin Yuan pointed at Shadow, and the 12 pillars of amber water combined into one belt of water that shot into Shadow's body.

Shadow noticed that the totem on the back of its hand was starting to grow warmer.

Since Shadow had only recently evolved to Apostle, the faith power within its totem was at the level of extremely weak.

In the short span of a few seconds, the faith power in Shadow's totem started to rise in power until it became higher weal.

As Shadow felt the faith power surging within its totem, it thought, How could this be uncomfortable? I've never been more comfortable!

Faith power was the source of all Apostles' power.

Shadow had heard of how powerful Dictators were, but it had never heard of any Dictators who were able to use their faith power to strengthen the faith power of the Apostles.

Before Shadow could revel in this blissful feeling, it experienced what it could only describe as true discomfort.

The moment that the faith power rose from higher weak to below average, it felt the totem on the back of its right hand twist violently.

It was as though the pillars of water were trying to push air into a balloon that had already been stretched to its limit. If any more air were pushed into the balloon, it would burst.

Lin Yuan had been observing Shadow throughout. When he noticed a strange expression come over its face, he immediately stopped using Faith Gift or Robbery to inject faith power into Shadow.

Judging from the results of Shadow's experiment, Lin Yuan was able to estimate the limits of Faith Gift or Robbery.

Although he still had more than enough faith power left in his shrine, he would not inject faith power into Shadow when it could not take any more.

It was likely that using such an ability would only be able to strengthen the faith power of the Apostles by one large step before it started endangering the Apostles.

After Lin Yuan stopped injecting faith power into Shadow, it said with shock, "Lord Dictator, I can now use my source sacred body."

This immediately piqued Lin Yuan's interest.

He remembered both White Speak and the Dark Scorpion using their source sacred bodies during their fight.

The source sacred body was the second ability that Apostles had, and it could only be used when the Apostle's faith power reached below average.

Both White Speak and Dark Scorpion had changed into human form when they used their source sacred bodies. Not only did their power increase, but they could also use a power known as sacred absolute ability.

"Shadow, since you can use your source sacred body now, use it once so I can see what your sacred absolute ability is."

During his conversation with White Speak, Lin Yuan had learned that Dark Scorpion's sacred absolute ability was disintegration. When the ability made contact with a lifeform, the lifeform's cells would separate rapidly. This would cause significant damage to the lifeform.

White Speak had been able to swallow Dark Scorpion's sacred absolute because White Speak's sacred absolute ability was replay. This meant that White Speak would be able to swallow the sacred absolutes of Apostles that did not have a stronger faith power than it did. It would only be able to swallow a portion of the sacred absolutes of Apostles that had stronger faith power than it did.

It would then spit out the sacred absolutes it had swallowed to attack its targets.

The sacred absolutes of Apostles all had unique abilities.

Thus, Lin Yuan was almost uncontrollably curious about Shadow's sacred absolute.

Frankly, Lin Yuan was not only curious about Shadow's sacred absolute but the appearance of its sacred source body.

Now that Shadow already looked almost indistinguishable from humans, what changes would it undergo when it used its source sacred body?

Shadow immediately activated the faith power that Lin Yuan had injected into its totem.

The white parts of Shadow's body slowly became transparent while the black parts turned into shadows. It was as though Shadow had disappeared right before Lin Yuan's eyes.

However, he could sense through the faith power he had injected into Shadow that it had not moved an inch.

Lin Yuan thought, Shadow's source sacred body turns it into an actual shadow. This greatly increases its ability to conceal itself.

While Shadow was using source sacred body, he realized that the faith power he had injected into Shadow was slowly depleting.

Shadow deactivated its source sacred body and exclaimed, "Lord Dictator, my sacred absolute allows me to fuse with any shadow and explode it at will to inflict damage on the main body casting the shadow."

Lin Yuan's eyebrow twitched.

Shadow's sacred absolute seemed to increase its ability to attack from a distance. This enabled Shadow not to have to be near a body in a battle to attack it.

Lin Yuan noticed its flaw after understanding what Shadow Piercing Back Hibernation was all about. This seemingly invincible ability actually had a fatal weakness.
