We’re probably nearing the final Transformation stage now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve read about some of these stages too,\" Holt nodded, his slender fingers lightly brushing the storage bag at his waist, ensuring the Earth Elemental Golem Core was safe:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But the specifics have always been a School secret. Seeing it firsthand is truly overwhelming.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trish’s gaze fixed on the crystal structure, her brown hair appeared especially dark under the crimson light:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These crystals... they seem like some sort of living tissue that’s been solidified. I can sense a faint life pulsation within, like the heartbeat of an ancient tree, but more... twisted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three of them advanced cautiously, each step taken with care, fearing to trigger some unknown trap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A peculiar scent permeated the air, cold like metal yet possessing some indescribable warmth, as if they were within some massive creature’s body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron suddenly raised his hand to stop the two, his gaze sharp as an eagle’s: \"Stop.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he spoke, all three felt a faint ripple coming from ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a very subtle sound, like a small creature swimming in water, accompanied by gentle splashes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a shadowed corner of the crystal platform, a small figure moved lightly, making tiny splashing sounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A head of silvery hair shimmered with an unusual luster reflected by the crystals, and large violet-blue eyes appeared even deeper, almost navy blue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that... Dale?\" Ron frowned, his first instinct being that the Little Sea Siren by his side had somehow run ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the next moment, his intuition told him something was off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The aura emanating from this \"Dale\" was entirely different from that of the real Dale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a more primitive, colder aura, lacking the unique warmth that Dale had.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s a replica.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He confirmed through his Extraordinary Recognition skills, sensing that the energy fluctuation from this \"Dale\" exceeded that of normal creatures:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Bloodline Altar might have created replicas of each of us, and this is hers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This \"Dale\" looked almost identical to the real Dale, but her demeanor was entirely different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her movements were smoother than Dale’s, each small gesture carrying a predatory grace and lethal elegance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze was sharper, with her pupils glinting with a primitive, cold predator instinct, sending a chill down one’s spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Ron felt the real Dale beside him tense up, but she quickly relaxed again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that... me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dale’s voice was unafraid, instead, filled with curiosity and excitement: \"It looks like me, but also not like me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The replica seemed to sense their presence and turned its head, an eerie smile spreading across its face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The smile seemed innocent, yet inexplicably creepy, as if hiding some real horror behind a mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, is big sister here to play with me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The replica Dale said in a naive tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hopped forward a few steps, each step accompanied by splashing droplets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master is here too, how wonderful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The replica tilted its head, droplets sliding off its silver hair, only to halt midair, transforming into a miniature ice blade:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Master, may I devour big sister? I want to become stronger, so I can better protect Master...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the murderous intent in her words, the air temperature plummeted, as if an invisible cold current emanated from the replica.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Frost began forming on the crystal platform, white mist lightly exhaled from her mouth and nose, condensing into translucent ice crystals, gently falling in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, even though it was just a replica, it seemed to harbor no hostility towards him, perhaps he should feel touched?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron calmly assessed the situation; he could feel that this replica was much stronger than the normal Dale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Life energy fluctuations were more active, but also more unstable, like a container forcibly filled with too much energy, on the verge of breaking apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She is indeed powerful,\" Ron whispered:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But also very dangerous, with overly enhanced bloodline traits entirely driven by instinct.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dale gazed at her replica, her eyes glinting with some understanding:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She is a part of me... that part which only obeys instinct.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Instinct?\" The replica Dale tilted her head, her expression naive and confused, silver hair drifting with her movement, forming into tiny ice crystals:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you talking about? I’m just... hungry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she uttered the last few words, her voice suddenly shifted in tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like dozens of voices speaking simultaneously, her pupils dilated, almost engulfing the whites of her eyes, filled with uncontrollable greed and desire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The replica Dale’s form began to transform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her fingertips elongated, turning into sharp blue claws, their surface covered with dense scales;\u003C\u002Fp>",860,"2026-05-29T14:43:43.888Z","2026-06-01T04:29:33.427Z",1,"novelbin.me","a3eeca1658c33c0114a63828c77edb693a2dbb7cfc17ad951c6f592d8ef92283","wizard-unlimited-profession-slots-chapter-320","wizard-unlimited-profession-slots-chapter-318",911,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwizard-unlimited-profession-slots-cover.jpg",{"terms":25,"userReplacements":26},[],{}]
