Skinwalker Belle – Chapter 101 – Spatial Cutting
Ah Hu knelt on the ground, his body trembling violently.
The fiery red Crystal erupted with berserk energy fluctuations within his body.
On the surface of his skin, lines like molten lava appeared.
The lines started from his chest and spread rapidly across his entire body, emitting a scorching glow.
“Argh—”
Ah Hu let out a low, guttural roar.
His muscles continuously expanded, contracted, and then expanded again.
His entire being was like a volcano on the verge of erupting.
Ten seconds.
Twenty seconds.
Thirty seconds.
The lava-like lines began to slowly dim.
Finally, they vanished completely beneath his skin.
Ah Hu gasped for breath, dense beads of sweat forming on his forehead.
He slowly stood up and clenched his fists.
He was indeed a tiny bit stronger than before.
But that was all.
Ah Hu froze for a moment, then shook his head with a bitter smile.
“Lei Jie, I… I failed.”
His voice was tinged with obvious disappointment.
Lin Fan said nothing, merely watching him quietly.
Ah Hu took a deep breath, forcing himself to rally.
“But at least there are no side effects. If there’s another level-three Crystal, I can try again.”
However, he knew in his heart how precious level-three Crystals were. Perhaps after this one failure, he would forever remain a level-two Evolved being.
Lin Fan nodded.
“There will be.”
Her gaze shifted to Zhou Ming on the other side.
Zhou Ming’s state at this moment was completely different from Ah Hu’s.
There were no agonized roars.
No violent energy eruptions.
He just knelt there quietly, a faint, transparent halo appearing on the surface of his body.
The halo would sometimes distort, sometimes shatter, only to re-form in the next second.
It was as if his entire person was drifting on the border between reality and the void.
Lin Fan’s Mental Strength swept over Zhou Ming’s body.
Rеaԁ оn ΚаtRеaⅾiոɡCαfе
She could clearly sense that the Spatial Ability within Zhou Ming was undergoing a qualitative transformation.
The spatial power, which could originally only be used for short-distance Teleportation, was now frantically reorganizing, compressing, and sublimating.
Finally.
Zhou Ming opened his eyes.
He stood up and raised his right hand.
With a gentle swipe.
Not a sound was made.
The air in front of him suddenly split open, revealing a pitch-black Rift.
The Rift was about half a meter long and no wider than a finger. Its interior was utterly dark, as if it could devour even light itself.
Zhou Ming stared at the Rift, a trace of shock flashing in his eyes.
He slowly extended a finger and gently touched the edge of the Rift.
“Tss—”
A bloody gash was instantly cut into his fingertip.
Blood dripped.
Before it could hit the ground, it was completely devoured by the Spatial Rift.
“Space Severance.”
Lin Fan’s voice rang out in the quiet room.
Zhou Ming whipped his head around, his eyes filled with excitement.
“Lei Jie, I succeeded!”
“This attack… I can feel it. It’s sharper than any sword or blade!”
Lin Fan walked up to him, carefully sensing the Spatial Rift.
Her Mental Strength attempted to touch the edge of the Rift.
The next second.
A small portion of her Mental Strength was directly severed.
Lin Fan’s brow twitched slightly.
“It is indeed very strong.”
Her tone was calm, but a hint of satisfaction flashed in her eyes.
Space Severance.
This was a true defense-ignoring attack.
As long as one was touched by this Rift, be it flesh and blood or a Mental Barrier, it would be instantly severed.
“Try your Teleportation.”
Lin Fan’s voice sounded again.
Zhou Ming nodded.
He closed his eyes and concentrated.

The next second.
His figure vanished from the spot.
When he reappeared, he was already at the other end of the room.
Immediately after.
He vanished again.
Appearing on the ceiling.
Vanished again.
Appearing behind Lin Fan.
The entire process was as smooth as flowing water, without the slightest pause.
“What’s the distance?”
Lin Fan asked.
Zhou Ming took a deep breath, a flicker of excitement in his eyes.
“At least five hundred meters!”
“And, I feel like I can now… bring someone with me.”
Lin Fan’s eyes lit up slightly.
“Bring someone?”
Zhou Ming’s face suddenly turned red.
He stammered.
“But… there has to be physical contact.”
Lin Fan didn’t hesitate.
She reached out and took Zhou Ming’s hand.
Zhou Ming’s body instantly stiffened.
He looked down at that fair, slender hand, which was like a work of art.
That soft touch.
That faint, pleasant scent.
It was enough to make his entire being practically melt.
“Try it.”
Lin Fan’s voice pulled him back to reality.
Zhou Ming took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the fluttering in his heart.
He focused his mind.
The next second.
Both of their figures vanished from the spot simultaneously.
When they reappeared, they were on the rooftop.
Rеаⅾ on КαtRеαdіոɡCаfe
The night wind blew past.
Then, in an instant, they were back inside the room.
Lin Fan released Zhou Ming’s hand, a trace of satisfaction in her eyes.
“Very good.”
She turned to look at Ah Hu, whose eyes were red with envy.
“Ah Hu.”
Ah Hu immediately stood up straight.
“Here!”
Lin Fan took out all the remaining level-one and level-two Crystals from her Storage Space.
The Crystals floated in mid-air like a brilliant river of stars.
“All these Crystals are yours.”
“Register and catalog them, and establish a comprehensive management system for Evolved beings.”
“All distribution of Crystals must go through your approval.”
Ah Hu’s eyes lit up instantly.
“Yes!”
Lin Fan paused, then continued.
“In the future, if there are any more level-three Crystals.”
“You get priority.”
Ah Hu was taken aback.
“Lei Jie, this…”
Lin Fan said flatly, “You’ve already used a level-three Crystal once. Although you failed, your body has already adapted to that energy.”
“Next time, your success rate will be higher.”
Ah Hu’s eyes instantly turned red.
He nodded heavily.
“I understand, Lei Jie!”
“I won’t let you down!”
Lin Fan turned to Zhou Ming.
“You, form a Special Operations Squad.”
“Your Spatial Ability is currently one of a kind.”
“I want you to become this base’s sharpest blade.”
Zhou Ming’s voice was low and firm.
“Yes!”
Lin Fan looked at the two men before her, the corners of her mouth curling into a faint arc.
The current Hangzhou Base.
Rеаⅾ oո КаtRеаⅾiոgСаfe
It had one level-three Evolved being.
A dozen or so level-two Evolved beings.
And several hundred Crystals in reserve.
This force was already enough to crush any surrounding factions.
It could even go head-to-head with the three major strongholds in Jiangcheng.
Just as Lin Fan was about to say something else.
Suddenly.
Her Mental Strength captured an abnormal fluctuation.
It was… the roar of an engine.
And it was moving very fast.
It was racing toward the base.
Lin Fan’s brow furrowed slightly.
She turned and looked in the direction of the base’s main gate.
In the darkness of the night.
A piercing car headlight approached from a distance.
It was followed by the screech of brakes.
Ah Hu and Zhou Ming also noticed the anomaly and looked toward the gate with vigilance.
“Who is it?”
Ah Hu asked in a low voice.
Lin Fan didn’t answer.
She just stood quietly at the edge of the rooftop, looking down below.
The car lights went out.
The door opened.
A man covered in blood, his face pale, stumbled out of the car.
He leaned against the car door, gasping for breath.
Lin Fan recognized him.
Liu Qiang.
The squad leader under Zhang Jie from Jiangcheng’s North District Industrial Park.
Liu Qiang raised his head and looked at the silver-white figure on the rooftop.
His eyes were filled with desperation and pleading.
“Lei Jie!”
His hoarse voice echoed in the night.
“Help me!”
