YM778.TV Chapter 131 Spirit Guardian Summoning
Spirit Guardian Summoning was the ultimate skill of a tier 5 warrior.
While using this skill, a warrior would call forth an illusory image of their spirit guardian into the real world. And once summoned, the spirit guardian will enhance the warrior\'s power while using many skills to assist them in combat.
It was akin to temporarily allying with a deity. As a result, the strength augmentation it provided far exceeded the boost gained by possessing a spirit guardian.
The spirit guardian of the divine butterfly tribe, as its name implies, manifested as a colossal butterfly possessing extraordinary temporal abilities. This mythical creature was believed to traverse time and even foresee the future—a god-like entity existing beyond the natural laws of this world.
Upon uttering the phrase \'Spirit Guardian Summoning,\' Chitra\'s closed palms formed a dense energy sphere. Swiftly, the energy dissipated from her form as if a mere illusion. In an instant, a connection was forged, trading energy within her.
This process resembled the opening of a portal to another realm. The condensed energy aided the temporary descent of the spirit guardian into the real world.
Chitra\'s body began to radiate light at that precise moment. The emitted glow intensified every passing second, potentially blinding any onlookers.
This luminous aura surrounding her separated, coalescing into a river of shimmering particles that condensed above her, materializing an illusory image of a colossal butterfly.
"Flutter… Flutteer…" The gentle sound of wings in motion roused Alex from his stupor as he observed Chitra.
Although the scene before him looked like it was straight out of some movie, he could grasp the reality instantly. What he was seeing was absolutely real.
The Divine Butterfly that materialised behind Chitra looked immaculate and beautiful. A being made of pure light.
The fluttering thin wings of this being held sparkling dots similar to stars in a night sky while its eyes resembled black holes, like a deep abyss that you could never escape from. What it was seeing and experiencing was something beyond human comprehension.
Under the gaze of the colossal butterfly, Alex felt a surge of energy coursing through his body, as if it was delving into his past, present, and future in a mere instant. His existence seemed laid bare before the entity.
Unintentionally, his energy responded to the Divine Butterfly\'s gaze, snapping him out of his daze. Despite not being an adversary, the mere presence and gaze of the illusory Divine Butterfly held a tangible influence over his body and mind.
However, when he looked at Kain, he saw a person that was looking nonchalantly at the image of the spirit guardian that appeared.
\'Is he not experiencing the same sensations I am?\' Alex mused, a chill creeping down his spine.
Meanwhile, the spirit guardian scrutinized the beings before it. Its all-seeing eye delved into the future, attempting to foresee the battle\'s outcome.
initially, it looked towards the towering mass of flesh. The horned mutant was the first in the list of dangerous beings present. When Chitra called it forth, it knew instinctively that it was related to this towering mass of flesh.
Past, present and future merged into a single frame in its eyes. All information about the horned mutant began to unravel before the Divine Butterfly\'s eyes. Every life experience the horned mutant had became instantly clear before it.
And some of the possible divergent futures were also revealed before the Divine Butterfly\'s eyes.
Within seconds, it could judge the inevitable outcome of the battle that was about to begin.
The Divine Butterfly looked at Chitra with pity after that.
\'Do you desire knowledge?\' Though conveyed through a mere gaze, Chitra instinctively grasped its meaning. The spirit guardian extended an offer to share its insights.
\'Please, reveal it to me,\' she communicated through the established telepathic link.
Observing this exchange with mana vision, Alex discerned a unique quality to this energy transfer—it almost resembled an individual\'s life force.
This vital energy existed in limited quantities within a person, sustaining their life. However, the substantial portion Chitra transmitted could potentially shorten her lifespan by a year.
Was such a sacrifice necessary? Alex pondered as he bore witness.
Before he could form a complete thought, a mysterious occurrence transpired. A solitary star upon the wings of the Divine Butterfly radiated more brilliantly than its counterparts. After a brief moment, it detached from the wings, descending toward Chitra.
With open arms, Chitra accepted the star. Alex deduced that, in exchange for her life energy, she gained something.
The fallen star held the insights gleaned from the Divine Butterfly\'s observation of the horned mutant. It encapsulated the mutant\'s experiences and the myriad potential divergent futures.
Chitra\'s form trembled as she absorbed the star-like particle of light. The deluge of information proved overwhelming to assimilate instantly.
Yet, the Divine Butterfly\'s inquisitiveness remained unsated. Despite the immediate danger posed by the entity in question, it continued to regard Kain, probing his life experiences.
However, this time, the insights gained from Kain were not transmitted to Chitra. The spirit guardian recognized the present unsuitability of such knowledge.
Subsequently, the Divine Butterfly directed its attention to Alex.
\'???\'
Its focus intensified.
\'???\'
Yet, it encountered an enigma—something obstructing its ability to read this individual\'s experiences.
What is it? It didn\'t know.
A form of energy impeded its perception, an occurrence entirely unprecedented in the lower world.
There is hope!
Amid its astonishment, the Divine Butterfly chose to postpone further investigation. More pressing matters demanded attention, as the horned mutant prepared to launch another assault.
While Chitra assimilated the new information, the horned mutant launched its attack. Similar to before, it showed its physical superiority as it jumped towards Chitra who was floating in the air.
"BOOM!" Creating a small shockwave and crushing the part of the floor beneath its feet, the horned mutant launched itself towards Chitra.
However, a thick layer of energy forced the horned mutant to the ground. It was none other than the Divine Butterfly that protected Chitra.
–
"Do you still believe that it can defeat a tier 5 warrior?" Alex asked Kain who was sitting beside him.
"Not in its current state." He paused while looking at the horned mutant that was thrown to the ground.
"Although the Divine Butterfly tribe was said to be one of the weakest in combat, their abilities are not weak. They are worthy to be called one of the nine major tribes. It\'s always fascinating to witness a tier 5 warrior battle without holding back."
"But even then, the power of the spirit guardian summoning was within the scope of my prediction. Currently, the mutant is at a standstill with the warrior. Neither are going to win or lose if the situation persists." Kain elucidated with a smirk.
"If the situation persists without any change? What do you mean?"
"You will see soon. But let me observe why my creation is struggling. Maybe I can improve it in the future." Kain was still thinking about improving his creation.
\'Even now, he is planning to destroy many lives.\' Alex realised the underlying meaning behind Kain\'s words. After all, Kain was not a person that was going to be regretful of his action. He was a psychopath obsessed over mutant research that was willing to do anything to achieve his goals.
–
The protector and Karthi swiftly navigated their way out of the subterranean labyrinth, retracing the path they had initially entered through.
However, upon emerging from the depths, an unexpected sight awaited them—an assembly of countless warriors from the Divine Butterfly Tribe. Most among them bore the marks of a fierce battle, evident through the bloodied scars and wounds that adorned their bodies.
Bafflement clouded the minds of the protector and Karthi as they absorbed the scene before them. A shared question echoed within their thoughts: What transpired here?
However, this doubt was short-lived. The moment they stepped out of the modest hut and cast their gazes beyond, the rationale behind the Divine Butterfly Tribe warriors\' battered appearance became chillingly clear.
Multiple corpses, both human, beast and mutant were piled near the hut. The area itself had been cordoned off by the warriors, who had triggered a citywide emergency alert.
One of the eminent members of the Divine Butterfly Tribe stepped forward to welcome the protector. They were treated with respect by the members of the Divine Butterfly tribe.
Seeing this, the protector wanted to quickly explain the situation under the ground. He wanted to call for help if he could.
But just as he was about to speak, a pillar of energy rose from under the ground. Suddenly, the members of the Divine Butterfly tribe felt their spirits tremble. Their bloodline was reacting with the surge of energy.
Even though Karthi and the protector only sensed the surge in the energy. It was a completely different experience for the Divine Butterfly tribe. They instinctively knew what it was.
\'Spirit guardian summoning! Something bad is about to happen.\' The members of the Divine Butterfly tribe thought simultaneously.
-
"BOOOOM!" With a thunderous sound, a sturdy metal door within the residence of the Divine Butterfly tribe was broken open. A middle-aged woman who was in solitary meditation emerged from behind the door.
That was none other than the head of the Divine Butterfly tribe. Even she was shocked by the torrent of energy released by the summoning of the spirit guardian. With an ominous feeling gasping her heart, she stepped on thin air and began moving towards a direction.
