Chapter 189: The Throne's Mutation

~6 min read 1,088 words

"And you, let me see what changes you have."

Naimi Xisi took out the Throne, which had now turned completely crimson; besides his own power breakthrough, another gain was the gem before him.

Throne

Grade: Unknown

Source Council: Once a month / Opens Throne Between.

Twisted Assassin: Aberrant creature suppression; any attack by the holder inflicts irrecoverable wounds on aberrant creatures.

Twisted Mana: Converts Star Realm Mana into Twisted Mana.

Twisted Eye: Manipulates Mana to twist matter.

Administrator Clause: Grants management permission for the Throne Hall.

Fengrang's Contamination: Distorts Crystal Wall system laws, causing worldwide biological mutations (suppressed by Magic Net, usage unknown).

(Hidden side effect: Twists holder's will, turning them into a follower of Yangmu, suppressed by Magic Net.)

After reading the message transmitted by Magic Net, Naimi Xisi's eyes widened.

The reason is that this time Magic Net's information was unprecedentedly complete.

Naimi Xisi knew that before siphoning the alien evil god's power this time, the Throne's Twisted Mana effect had always displayed as garbled error code.

Obviously, the Magic Net then could not parse this power, or perhaps simply did not wish to reveal it.

This time, for reasons unknown, Magic Net actually narrated the source behind its power.

"Yangmu."

Naimi Xisi confirmed that this evil god differed from the one he met last time; the Gray Dwarf he recalled worshipped someone called Ierwashi?

The previous time he drew Ierwashi's power, the Throne gained the Twisted Mana ability; this time, perhaps because Yangmu projected more power than Ierwashi, the Throne obtained three abilities.

First is that odd Administrator Clause; after Naimi Xisi's investigation, he found it actually applies to the Throne Between.

As the name suggests, the current holder of this crimson Throne, Naimi Xisi, has obtained the manager permission for the entire Throne Between.

For now, this permission has little effect; Naimi Xisi can only use it to bar any duke he dislikes from entering the Throne Between.

Regarding several council members, Naimi Xisi has no objections, and he even wishes to communicate with other Crystal Wall systems and even planar beings, so he feels this permission is probably unnecessary for now.

The second ability, called Twisted Eye, directly affects the material realm more than Twisted Mana.

"Interesting, twisting matter?"

Feeling something, Naimi Xisi turned his gaze toward a distant mountain nearly a kilometer tall.

A deep violet dragon eye displayed a swirling pattern, torrents of Twisted Mana surged into his eyes, and Naimi Xisi felt a massive tearing force in his gaze.

He immediately projected this power outward, and the next moment, a terrifying scene unfolded.

There was no warning, no sound, only a faint tremor spreading across the earth. Above the mountain, an invisible force displayed its majesty, like a formless giant hand effortlessly twisting the boundaries of space and matter. The texture of the rocks grew hazy, solid stone seemed to melt slowly, and the flowing mountain appeared as a bizarre liquid in the interplay of light and shadow.

The towering peak seemed insignificant before this sudden mutation. Its body gradually disintegrated in the twist, countless tiny fragments drifting helplessly like leaves battered by huge waves. The once cloud‑piercing summit now was merely dust blown by the wind.

"As the name suggests, twisting matter is truly a terrifying power."

Naimi Xisi inhaled a cold breath, feeling a hint of awe toward the master behind this new ability. Yangmu's power was clearly more bizarre than Ierwashi's; through experiments, Naimi Xisi discovered that under Mana's influence, any material can be twisted under his gaze.

A literal twist.

Twisted Eye can warp and sever any truly existing material; the mountain was destroyed in this way, the twisting force shredding every tree and rock on the peak into tiny fragments.

The only regret is that after each use, Naimi Xisi feels excruciating eye pain, requiring at least a minute of relief before reusing, and the more Mana he invests, the stronger the pain.

"Sss"

Retracting the Twisted Eye's power, Naimi Xisi immediately felt a sharp pain in his eyes, a strand of blood dripping from the massive dragon eye, and his vision blurred.

This condition persisted for a minute before improving slightly.

"Seems it can't be used routinely."

Naimi Xisi sighed; the cost of Twisted Eye even overwhelms the True Dragon's mighty eyes, and an ordinary human would likely go completely blind after a single use.

He shook his head and looked at the third ability—Fengrang's Contamination.

Just describing this ability is terrifying; it affects the entire Crystal Wall system range, causing indiscriminate mutations.

!

Recalling the mutated state of the Niksalan people he had seen before, Naimi Xisi felt a chill; if this ability were activated, perhaps the entire Tianyu Realm would become a monster's paradise.

Even Magic Net suppressed this ability along with the Throne's side effects.

This is why Naimi Xisi was stunned by the information; his intuition told him that Magic Net's restriction not only protects the Crystal Wall system but also protects him.

If the ability were triggered, something truly horrific would likely occur.

It gave Naimi Xisi the illusion that Magic Net was warning him to be cautious when wielding these evil god powers.

This made him even more vigilant.

After retracting the Throne, Saifal and others rushed to his side; seeing his greatly enlarged form, Deronaeu couldn't help but feel alarmed.

"You've broken through another age tier? No, how could it be so fast!" Deronaeu exclaimed.

Naimi Xisi smiled, "Just gained a little harvest."

Before the Red Dragon could speak, Saifal excitedly looked at the crystal sphere in Naimi Xisi's claw and asked, "Is this the Sun God's tribute?"

"May I borrow it for a few days of study?" Saifal asked cautiously.

Naimi Xisi nodded, tossed it to Saifal, and said, "Here you go, but I have a condition."

He no longer needs the Sun God's tribute; a Mage Tower cannot house two Spell Amplifiers, unless it's to prepare for building other Mage Towers later.

Then it's better to expand the existing Mage Tower, finding a way to make it a mobile Mage Tower more cost‑effective, right?

"No problem, you name it!" Saifal waved his hand generously.

"I wish to trade this crystal sphere for all your Spell Models of the seven and eight-circle spells, except for Spellcraft and prophecy spells," Naimi Xisi smiled.

His level rose, but the ammo cache wasn't full; he had almost no seven-circle Spell Models, so he might as well use the Sun God's tribute to exchange for some now.
