Chapter 158: Ink Creature


--- Chapter 157 ---

"Tracing..."

"On."

Huo Yuhao sat on the ground, skillfully rubbing his finger against the Fairy King's Canvas. He drew a small nine-tailed fox and added so many details that it looks too realistic, but this is necessary.

The All-Transforming Ink moved according to Huo Yuhao's will, squirming and solidifying itself into a pink nine-tailed fox. It stayed and jumped around for a minute before popping out of existence.

Poof!

[Tracing has leveled up]

[Tracing(C)]

"Good. I can increase the size of the "Tracing." skill now." Huo Yuhao commented while drawing with his finger, creating a group of foxes.

He watched the foxes and was amused by them, recalling Huo Yun'er Divine Fox Form. He picked up the pace and drew countless creatures until his inner energy depleted to 5%.

Taking a short break, Huo Yuhao consumed an "Energy Booster." potion from his inventory. Even though Huo Yuhao doesn't have his Alchemy Skills, he still has his mastery and memory to create things.

And with the medicinal ingredients of this world, it's not hard for Huo Yuhao to create a supplement that aids his growth. Recovering his inner energy quickly, Huo Yuhao returned to the grind and kept using Tracing to a certain level.

Rinse and repeat.

[Name: Tracing

[Type: Passive]

[Grade: C]

[Description: Tracing is the power to mimic everything with All-Transforming Ink. Anything created through Tracing needed a "Deep Impression." within the wielder's mind. The wielder was allowed to add more details and manifested even more powerful things]

Tracing is a powerful ability.

Huo Yuhao won't deny it.

Regardless, Tracing needed a specific level of quality to be triggered. It also required the wielder to possess a deep impression of the subject, like experience getting drawn out.

Huo Yuhao was restricted to a small object with his Tracing proficiency, trying to draw everyone in the homeworld once, and each attempt was a failure. In conclusion, he only has to raise his Tracing to B or A Grade.

[Tracing's proficiency has increased]

[Tracing's proficiency...]

[Tracing's proficiency...]

[Tracing's proficiency...]

[Tracing's proficiency...]

[...]

[...]

Huo Yuhao entered a state of emptiness, staring at the wall mindlessly and moving his hand instinctively. Each stroke caused an inner energy storm in the room and stirred small dust to all corners.

His perception of time becomes very vague, experiences a drown-like condition. He focused all his attention on the art before him.

Twelve hours later, Huo Yuhao opened his eyes and skimmed at the abstract drawing on the Fairy King's Canvas with a speechless look.

"Uh..."

"What is this??"

[Ding! Tracing has leveled up]

[Tracing(B-)]

[You have unlocked a way to add intent into your Tracing]

[You have created the first Ink Creature]

[Do you want to store it in Fairy King's Canvas?]

"Ink Creature..." Huo Yuhao has a weird look on his face.

A young deer with curved black horns on each side of its adorable head and fluffy yet cloudy blue fur appeared before Huo Yuhao. It released a meek-sounding squeak, which caused Huo Yuhao to be astonished for a moment.

"Ah..."

"You're a Mythical Qilin."

"Wee~!" The Qilin rubbed its head against Huo Yuhao's thigh.

[Name: None]

[Type: Ink Creature/Mimicked Mythical Qilin]

[Cultivation: 7th Class Beast(high)]

[Description: The Ink Creature, Mythical Qilin is inferior mimicry of youthful Huang Yuna. It possessed the power to manipulate all five fundamental elements and small luck around its creator]

"Can you transform into human form?" Huo Yuhao asked, to which the cloudy-furred beast responded with a shake of its head.

Patting the beast, Huo Yuhao pondered about something and stared at the Fairy King's Canvas.

[Name: Fairy King's Canvas]

[Type: Ancient Artifact]

A whirlpool appeared and bounced the red spear back to the purple-haired vampire.

BOOM!

The vampire exploded into a mist of blood, covering Titania's field of vision. Titania groaned in disgust, telling her guardian to clean the blood away.

"Finish him." She ordered the Heaven Devouring Ink Serpent to stop playing with Huo Yuhao.

BAM!

Huo Yuhao stepped back and witnessed the serpent leaping out from the ground. The fangs were about to reach Huo Yuhao's body, but the Fairy King's Canvas suddenly released a bright white light.

"Come... My old friend." A rare smile cracked on Huo Yuhao's emotionless face. It was a smile filled with nostalgia.

"This is..." Titania somehow could feel the heat in her Ink World. It should be impossible because Ink World is an absolute neutral field, where all Devil Force got nullified to nothing.

Even Huo Yuhao's Ink Creature, who performs elemental mastery, is debuffed by 75% of its full capability.

Gruggle!

The ink around Titania is starting to boil at an alarming rate.

The Temperature is soaring too fast for her to react.

BOOOM!

The Fairy King's Canvas released an intense white light and spewed out a massive creature, rivaling the World Devouring Ink Serpent.

It was a young western dragon with purplish black scales, possessing fierce purple flame around its muscular body.

"Burn this place down, Naga." Huo Yuhao's complexion is pale because drawing young Naga to this world consumed around 90% of his inner energy and stamina.

And this version of Naga basically possessed 5% of the real one could do.

ROAR!

The dragon roared to the black sky, covering the whole world with its purple thunderfire. The Ink World began to melt slowly but surely, leaving Titania speechless.

"Just what kind of creature did he imagine?" Titania tried to maintain her domain. "The Ink World might be weaker because I'm still in this state, but I have never encountered such a ridiculous dragon in my life."

"Even a 10th Class Devil Warrior couldn't defeat such a dragon..."

BOOOOOOOM!!

The whole world exploded into ashes.

"AAAAHHH, Damn it!" Titania blew her finger continuously and pouted because Huo Yuhao could destroy her Ink World. It took one drop of her All-Transforming Ink to make Ink World, but the burning effect still lasted on her finger.

"Phew, Phew~!" She sucked her index finger in annoyance.

"This unfilial inheritor, hmph!"

Huo Yuhao opened his eyes and looked around, locating Titania a few meters away. "Send me back, Titania." He said while feeling weak.

"I met the requirement already."

"I know... Shut your eyes for a moment." Titania responded coldly.

"..." Huo Yuhao put on a deadpan expression.

"Don't stare at me like that! Just shut your eyes."

Titania ordered, to which Huo Yuhao complied as he would never return outside with her mood like this.

Huo Yuhao closed his eyes and felt a gentle push on his lips, probing into his mouth gently. He opened his eyes and found Titania kissing him with a reddened face.

"D-Done! Go back now!!" Titania suddenly pushed him away, turning around quickly. She doesn't want Huo Yuhao to see her current state.

"Just said you want to kiss me, you know? What's this cliche tsundere moment?" Huo Yuhao shook his head.

...

...

[Ding! You have awakened Ancient Ink Devil's "Ink Domain." ability]

Huo Yuhao returned and was "abruptly." welcomed with a familiar stone ceiling. "Titania..." He rubbed his lips lightly.

"Unfortunately, this is only a simulation."

"She would be a good friend to everyone in the homeworld."

Stretching his body, Huo Yuhao walked out of the room and yawned as he needed a warm bath. He picked up a recovery potion and drank it on the spot.

"Hmm??"

Huo Yuhao glanced at the roof, feeling two 9th Class Devil Warriors approaching the Black Pearl Castle. "They are here." He whispered in delight.

Mercy and Clara are doing their job flawlessly.

Harmonia and Triana hovered above the Black Pearl Castle, seeing the area with surprised faces.

"Woah, this place... This place is no different than barren land. Monia thought there was grassland around the Black Pearl Castle. What happened here?" Harmonia commented curiously.

Triana nodded and added, "Yes, I'm curious..."

Harmonia shrugged and continued, "Let's find our little brother first, Triana."

"Mm."

"Let's find Theo."
