Chapter 248 Enchanting Whispers
The demon officer's body was not yet completely cold, and the lingering burnt smell of arcane energy in the air had not yet dissipated when a sudden change occurred.
As if an invisible hand had plucked the strings of space, the surrounding light suddenly dimmed, and a thick, almost viscous pink mist appeared out of nowhere, rolling around like a living thing, quickly swallowing everything in the pass.
The line of sight was compressed to the extreme, and even the towering rock walls on both sides became blurred and distorted in the mist.
A cloyingly sweet aroma wafted through the air, filling the nostrils and rushing straight to the mind, attempting to dismantle all rational defenses.
Immediately afterwards, a faint chanting sound, as if coming from a distant shore, quietly arose.
The voice was ethereal and otherworldly, yet possessed a captivating and enchanting magic; each syllable seemed to gently scratch at the deepest desires and longings within the listener's heart.
Deep within the mist, a slender and graceful figure slowly materialized, appearing and disappearing—it was the enchantress Superses.
Instead of launching a direct attack as before, she hovered there quietly, like an eerie flower blooming in the netherworld.
"Hehehe..."
A clear and magnetic laugh echoed through the mist, penetrating the physical barrier and resounding in Lin Tian's mind.
The sound seemed to possess a magical power, easily arousing the most primal impulses and possessiveness in male creatures.
"Truly astonishing power, Lin Tian." Supersis's voice was languid yet filled with undisguised admiration, as if he were appreciating a masterpiece of art.
"With a mere gesture, you could reduce the elite troops under my foolish colleagues to ashes. Such immense power, confined to this small material plane, alongside those weak creatures—isn't that a terrible injustice?"
Her voice is like the finest wine, intoxicating and enticing, and like the most delicate feather, stirring the heartstrings.
The pink mist rippled slightly with her words, and the sweet fragrance grew stronger, attempting to construct illusions of power, beauty, and strength in Lin Tian's mental world.
Lin Tian remained expressionless, as if an invisible barrier surrounded him. The alluring voice and seductive fragrance that could make even ordinary hero-level experts lose their composure melted away like ice and snow meeting the sun when they approached him.
His high mental attributes give him almost absolute immunity to this type of mental attack.
His eyes remained clear and cold, like ice that never melts.
Celia stood behind Lin Tian, equally unaffected by this low-level charm, but her golden eyes were filled with icy killing intent as she stared intently at the figure in the mist. Superses' words were a double insult to both her master and herself.
Seeing that Lin Tian had no reaction, Superses was not discouraged. Instead, her voice became even more alluring and captivating, carrying a perfectly timed hint of regret:
"A powerful being like you deserves much more... His Majesty Kael'thas is eager for talent and greatly admires you."
The gates of Dark Erosion City will always be open to you, as long as you wish.
"The endless power of the abyss is at your disposal, and countless territories and servants are at your command. That will be a power and authority far beyond what you can currently imagine..."
Her voice paused, as if she were throwing out her final, irresistible bargaining chip, her tone carrying both seduction and a subtle, almost imperceptible threat:
"And all you need to pay is a negligible price—to return that despicable traitor by your side, and the [Abyssal Blood Core] that never belonged to her, to His Majesty Kael'thas."
At that time, you will become a distinguished guest in Dark City, second only to the leader, and even... share with us the eternal secrets of the abyss.
How about it? This deal couldn't be more worthwhile for you.
Each word was like a carefully crafted poison needle, attempting to pierce Lin Tian's defenses and awaken any potential greed and desire for power within him.
The pink mist thickened to its peak at that moment, and the chanting became high-pitched and seductive, as if countless enchanting witches were whispering in one's ear, promising all the bliss in the world.
Celia clenched her fists suddenly, her nails almost digging into her palms.
Although she believed in Lin Tian, Superses' words still lingered in her heart like a venomous snake.
She nervously watched Lin Tian's retreating figure.
However, Lin Tian's response to Sopersis was not words, but actions!
The moment the last syllable of Sopersis fell, Lin Tian's eyes, which had been calm and unwavering, suddenly lit up!
It is no longer the brilliance of stars, but seems to contain the absolute will that was created at the beginning of heaven and earth and that governs the birth and death of all things!
[Dominator's Eye] - Activate!
Without a roar or warning, a terrifying spiritual shock, invisible and intangible yet powerful enough to shake the very essence of the soul, crashed into the deepest part of the pink mist like a world-destroying thunderbolt tearing through the void!
This impact is not directed at physical existence, but rather acts directly on the spiritual and soul level!
"Buzz—!"
The entire pink, alluring field trembled and twisted violently, like a lake surface tossed with a boulder!
The cloying fragrance seemed to be purified by an invisible force, instantly becoming much weaker;
The captivating chanting abruptly stopped, as if its throat had been grabbed, leaving only an empty echo drifting through the pass.
"Hmm!"
From the depths of the mist came a muffled groan, strained to be suppressed yet still clearly audible, filled with pain and astonishment.
Sopersis's once flawless and seductive voice now showed an unmistakable tremor and distortion.
She clearly had no idea that Lin Tian's will was so firm. Under her full charm, he not only remained unmoved, but was also able to lock onto the approximate location of her spiritual essence in an instant and launch such a fierce, domineering, and soul-piercing counterattack!
The true mental damage from this [Dominator's Eye] attack may not have been fully realized due to the distance and the fog, but the "Dominator's Pressure" effect it contained still solidly impacted her soul, causing her alluring domain, which relied on mental power, to show signs of instability.
The pink mist began to churn violently, sometimes condensing and sometimes dissipating, revealing the instability of its owner's state of mind.
Lin Tian slowly withdrew his gaze, the terrifying will in his eyes receding like the tide, returning to a calm and undisturbed state.
He acted as if he had done something insignificant, without even his breathing becoming disordered.
"Hiding your head and revealing your tail, bewitching people." Lin Tian finally spoke, his voice calm yet carrying a chilling, judgmental tone.
"Is this the ability of Kael'thas's generals? Disappointing."
His words were like invisible slaps to the face of Supersis, who was hidden in the mist.
Celia's tense nerves instantly relaxed. Looking at Lin Tian's tall and straight back, her eyes revealed boundless respect and peace of mind.
A master is a master; how could such low-level seductive tricks sway him?
Deep within the mist, Superses's breathing seemed to intensify, and a hint of barely suppressed embarrassment and chill finally crept into her sweet voice:
"Fine...very well! Lin Tian, you really do...don't know what's good for you! Since that's the case, then let you experience firsthand the true terror of the abyss!"
Before the words were finished, the surging pink mist suddenly changed color, transforming from an ambiguous pink to a venomous dark purple, and the sweet fragrance in the air was replaced by a sharp mental pressure.
Clearly, after his verbal persuasion failed, Sopersis was ready to get serious.
Lin Tian watched all these changes indifferently. The [Star Devouring Staff] in his hand had appeared at some point, and the pitch-black core at the tip of the staff slowly rotated, as if waiting for the next destructive storm to arrive.
The seductive whispers have no effect; what follows will be a direct clash of power.
Lin Tian was already prepared to completely tear apart all obstacles, including this nauseating fog.
