The phantom crouched on the ground, clutching her head. Seeing that Lin Xu showed no further intention to attack, she let out a sigh of relief before groaning as she stood up.
"This is of course the power of the elves! Those creatures are extremely adept at manipulating life force; all the great elves possess the ability to grow larger or smaller! This overlaps with the abilities of our Shadow Clan, therefore they are heretics who have betrayed the divine messengers and should all be eliminated!"
Lin Xu touched his chin.
I see.
As expected, advanced elves all possess the ability to change their bodies.
For example, Tao Yao and Xiao Yu.
Tao Yao possesses life-changing abilities, so it's only natural that she can grow larger or smaller.
Xiaoyu wasn't originally a life-type spirit, but Lin Xu could observe that Xiaoyu's body had been growing taller since birth. Moreover, this girl seemed to be able to adjust her height, maintaining the same height as Taoyao.
It turns out this is a talent possessed by great elves, something every elf has.
This is somewhat similar to the changes in the Phantom's height.
However, when the topic of elves came up, Lin Xu remembered his own ability to enlighten others.
He can now cast his Enchanted ability without cooldown.
His ability to transform things was not fully realized simply because there were no suitable high-quality materials available.
The Phantom, a member of the Shadow Clan, had now piqued his interest in this regard.
When Lin Xu learned about his enlightenment ability, he wondered what would happen if he used it to enlighten humanoid creatures.
Given the Phantom's quality, it is absolutely qualified to be enlightened.
What would happen if we enlightened her now?
Lin Xu looked at the phantom:
"Have you ever heard of the power of enlightenment? It's the ability to transform matter into spirits?"
The Phantom was taken aback:
"Enlightenment? I've seen some humans summon spirits, but they all do so through special methods. The ability to transform an object into a spirit out of thin air... only that one..."
As he said this, the Phantom opened his mouth wide, revealing a dazed and confused expression.
Lin Xu was waiting for Mei Ying to continue, but when he saw Mei Ying's expression, his lips twitched.
The Phantom's mentally challenged appearance is what it looks like when it experiences amnesia.
Has she forgotten some crucial information this time?
What kind of important person would have a similar ability to enlighten others?
Seeing that Phantom's expression was becoming increasingly blank, as if she had completely lost her brainstem, Lin Xu had no choice but to reach out and poke Phantom's cheek.
"ah!"
The Phantom suddenly awoke:
"What did you just ask me?! I almost turned into an idiot!"
Lin Xu's lips twitched:
“Even if I don’t ask you any questions, you are fully deserving of this title.”
"Huh?" Phantom didn't immediately understand Lin Xu's veiled sarcasm.
Before she could figure it out, Lin Xu waved his hand:
"What were you trying to say? Is there anything that can enlighten spirits?"
The Phantom's expression briefly returned to that dazed look, but she quickly shook her head violently, recovering from her amnesia:
"I don't remember! But he was indeed a very remarkable and powerful figure! That person also seemed to have a grudge against our Shadow Clan! It was that person who could conjure elves and create these evil creatures out of thin air!"
Lin Xu raised an eyebrow.
If someone can be called a big shot by the Phantom, then how high must their status be?
Could it be some kind of divine messenger or racial leader?
However, the fact that the ability to enlighten was a power that only such a person could possess secretly shocked Lin Xu.
It seems that, apart from his unique talent, his ability to enlighten others is indeed a golden finger, and his potential is extremely huge.
But the more this was the case, the more certain he became that he couldn't just show this ability to others.
Unless others sign a slave contract to ensure that the secret will never be revealed, he will not show his enlightenment ability to others. Like his unique talent, it is his trump card.
Lin Xu saw that Phantom was once again in that dazed, mouth-open state, and knew that this female demon was foolishly thinking about the memories she had just lost.
He nudged the female demon again, waking the Phantom up once more.
Then Lin Xu asked:
"Don't go on about the crucial role of enlightenment abilities. What I want to know now is, what would happen if I used my enlightenment abilities to enlighten you?"
"To enlighten me?"
The phantom's eyes widened suddenly, then she clutched her chest and retreated hastily.
"No! The Shadow Clan and the Elf Clan are opposites! If you use your Enlightenment power on me, I will surely be reduced to ashes! You will kill me!"
Lin Xu was somewhat surprised:
"On the contrary? So this is the relationship between elves and shadows... So enlightenment can kill the shadow race?"
After thinking for a moment, Lin Xu asked again:
"But killing you should only be a side effect, right? I've tried the Enlightenment ability. This power can turn the rotten into the miraculous. Even if Enlightening the Shadow Clan will lead to your demise, there should be some benefits in return, right? What are these benefits?"
"A reward? You want a reward too!"
The Phantom shouted:
"I'm about to die, and you still want something in return..."
Seeing Lin Xu continue to stare at her, Phantom couldn't help but say:
"I don't know! I've never seen anyone else enlighten shadow creatures, so of course I don't know what the reward will be!"
Lin Xu's eyes flickered.
Don't you know?
In other words, it's not necessarily true that there will be no return...
This is definitely worth a try...
Ever since Lin Xu heard that the shadow creatures were the darlings of the gods, he was certain that this race was quite extraordinary.
If we could obtain the means to develop the value of this race, that would be ideal, as it would greatly help him become stronger and more powerful.
Therefore, it's definitely worth trying to enlighten a shadow creature.
On the contrary, judging from the Phantom's attitude towards other members of its race, this group clearly does not care about the life or death of its own kind.
Seeing that Lin Xu remained silent and stared at her in deep thought, Phantom felt increasingly chilled.
Is this human really so depraved that he wants to try and enlighten her?
She wasn't lying; the power of enlightenment, the ability to create spirits, would absolutely kill shadow creatures if used against them.
So, this human was indeed toying with her, trying to give her hope and then shatter it?
Moreover, this man wasn't just going to destroy her things; he wanted to take her life...
The more Meiying thought about it, the more horrified she felt. She recalled the faint sweetness that had welled up in her heart when Lin Xu touched her head, and now she felt even more ashamed and chilled.
As expected, humans are all evil and greedy. They tormented humans in the past, and now they are finally going to face human revenge!
When Phantom noticed that Lin Xu was still squinting at her, she felt even more certain that she was doomed this time.
The female demon gritted her teeth in hatred, then decisively stood up, spread her limbs, and fell backward to the ground:
"Come on! You cold-blooded human! Since you want to enlighten me, then start now! I will no longer be fooled by you! I have seen through this trick of giving me hope and then shattering it!"
As she said this, Phantom closed her eyes, pursed her lips, and looked as if she were going to her death, trying to accept Lin Xu's enlightenment.
Lin Xu snapped out of his deep thoughts and then heard and saw Phantom's words and actions.
He was speechless for a moment.
This female demon, although she had some mental problems before her body shrank, her mental weaknesses were completely exposed after her body shrank.
Compared to Tao Yao, this female demon's brain seems to be even more crudely developed.
Lin Xu couldn't help but shake his head:
"If you meet Tao Yao, you might get along very well with her."
