Skinwalker Belle – Chapter 194 – The Shape-Shifting Witch

The cave was deathly silent.

Lin Fan stood naked, her silver hair flowing like moonlight, her seven-colored eyes coldly observing everything before her.

On the ground, the unconscious Long Yan’s breathing was steady, his chest rising and falling faintly.

The Dragon Bone that had belonged to “Long Ningshuang” had achieved a Perfect Fusion with him and was now slowly repairing and remodeling his body in a domineering fashion.

On the other side, two Skins lay quietly.

One was the dark green Skin of Long Ningshuang, which had lost all its luster. Its edges were even beginning to show signs of damage.

The other was the Skin of Su Rou, which emitted a faint fluorescent glow, its fur a mix of dark orange and pure white.

“System,” Lin Fan issued a command in her mind. “With my current body, what is the success rate of fusing with both ‘Long Ningshuang’ and ‘Su Rou’ at the same time?”

[Fusion Subject: Main Body]

[Fusion Sub-bodies: Long Ningshuang (Epic-grade, Near-death state), Su Rou (Perfect-grade)]

[Calculating comprehensive data… Original fusion success rate: 0.1%]

As expected.

Lin Fan was not the least bit surprised by this number.

Fusing with high-grade Skins was difficult to begin with. This time, it involved fusing two Skins with rare bloodlines simultaneously, not to mention that Long Ningshuang’s Skin was on the verge of shattering.

“Using the Skins I’ve already acquired as fusion buffer material, how many would it take to raise the success rate to 100%?”

[Calculating…]

[Option 1: 99 Excellent-grade Skins + 20 Exceptional-grade Skins.]

[Option 2: 150 Excellent-grade Skins.]

[…]

“I’ll go with Option 2,” Lin Fan said without hesitation.

She had previously mass-produced 242 Excellent-grade Skins. Using 150 was more than enough.

With a thought from Lin Fan, the female slave Skins she kept as materials instantly poured out of her Storage Space, densely covering the entire cave floor.

Cat-girls, snake-girls, deer-girls, wolf-girls… Skins of various races intertwined, forming a bizarre yet spectacular tapestry.

“System, begin fusion.”

Lin Fan sat down cross-legged, her voice devoid of any emotion.

[Fusion request confirmed…]

[Fusion materials confirmed: 150 Excellent-grade Skins.]

[Fusion success rate adjusted to: 100%]

[Confirm fusion?]

“Confirm!”

Voom!

The 150 Excellent-grade Skins on the ground simultaneously transformed into 150 streams of multicolored light. Like weary birds returning to their forest, they all surged into the near-shattered Skin of Long Ningshuang!

Immediately after, Su Rou’s Skin also turned into a stream of orange-and-white light, following closely behind.

After absorbing this immense energy, the originally dim Long Ningshuang Skin instantly erupted with a dazzling, dark green radiance.

Within the light, the Skin’s form began to change drastically. The damaged edges repaired themselves, and the dark gold scales once again shone brilliantly.

The orange-and-white stream of light, like a nimble fox, coiled around the dark green ball of light, continuously penetrating and merging with it.

Lin Fan closed her eyes, actively welcoming the ball of energy that mixed the auras of the Dragon Clan and the Nine-tailed celestial fox.

The moment the ball of light slammed into her body, what erupted was not pain.

It was “decomposition.”

Crick… crack…

She heard the wails of her own bones. Under the tyrannical power of the Dragon Bloodline, they were crushed inch by inch into the most primitive powder, preparing to be reshaped into new Dragon Bones, only to be coated again by a layer of the cerulean crystal bone unique to Blue Star humans.

But in the next second, the Nine-tailed celestial fox bloodline, like all-pervasive mercury, seeped madly from the depths of her soul. It carried a bone-corroding gentleness, intending to turn her soon-to-be-formed dragon body into a vessel for ultimate charm.

Two completely different top-tier bloodlines waged a war of extreme ferocity within her body!

“Urgh…”

Lin Fan’s body arched backward violently as an irrepressible groan of pain escaped her throat.

On the surface of her skin, fine, pure-white Dragon Scales instantly appeared, hard and cold.

But before the Dragon Scales could fully cover her, her skin became as smooth as jade again, and the phantoms of nine fox tails even exploded uncontrollably from behind her.

Torn apart, reassembled, torn apart again, reassembled again…

Her body had become a bloody grindstone.

But Lin Fan’s consciousness remained absolutely clear, even tinged with a pathological excitement.

Come on… It’s not enough…

How can this level of pain be worthy of the path to godhood!

An unknown amount of time passed.

Rеαⅾ οn ΚαtRеаdіոɡСαfе

The violent energy fluctuations within the cave finally, slowly, subsided.

Lin Fan slowly stood up from the ground.

It was just the simple act of rising, without using any strength, yet the rock walls of the entire cave groaned as if unable to bear the weight, and dust trickled down.

An indescribable, terrifying aura—a mixture of the sacred, the majestic, the demonic, and the seductive—emanated from her, filling the entire cave.

She raised her hand.

The water vapor in the air, as if summoned by a god, spontaneously gathered before her, condensing into a water mirror clearer than any other.

The person in the mirror still had that long, silver hair that flowed like moonlight, and still had those seven-colored eyes that held nebulae within them.

But her face was even more perfect than before, as if it were the Creator’s most outstanding work of art, where adding a single stroke would be superfluous and removing one would leave it lacking.

And on either side of her smooth forehead, a pair of small, exquisite Dragon horns had grown, like they were carved from white jade.

Far from ruining her stunning face, the Dragon horns added an indescribable touch of majesty and divinity.

With a thought.

Behind her, the phantoms of nine fox tails, formed from pure Mental Strength and burning with white flames, slowly unfurled, both demonic and holy.

Lin Fan opened the system panel.

[Fusion successful!]

[Current Main Body: Lin Fan]

[Physical Fitness: 5643]

[Mental Strength: 5936]

Rеαⅾ οո KatReaⅾіոɡCafе

[Innate Abilities: Advanced combat techniques, Advanced weapon mastery, Advanced medicine, Advanced physical enhancement, Advanced mental strength control, Advanced fire element control, God-level charm, Low-level Dragon Bloodline, Low-level Nine-tailed celestial fox bloodline (Upgraded via fusion)]

Looking at these terrifying stats, Lin Fan finally revealed a satisfied smile.

Her physical fitness and Mental Strength had doubled!

And her originally incomplete Nine-tailed celestial fox bloodline had been completed through the fusion upgrade, advancing to “Low-level.”

Though it was only a jump from incomplete to low-level, the difference between them was as vast as heaven and earth.

She could feel that her control over her Mental Strength had reached a whole new realm.

If before it was “control,” now it was more like “incarnation.”

She was Mental Strength, and Mental Strength was her.

[Ding!]

[Detected that the host used over one hundred Skin materials in a single fusion…]

[Triggering special reward…]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the unique title: Hundred-Faced Enchantress]

[Hundred-Faced Enchantress: The host can expend a small amount of Mental Strength to change into the form of any previously fused Skin at will, perfectly simulating its aura. The disguise cannot be seen through.]

The smile on Lin Fan’s face deepened.

This ability…

She looked at the unconscious Long Yan on the ground, and a thought flashed through her mind.

Voom…
