Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 326 Ashimimon, evolve!
Ashmi came forward, holding a flat silver-white holy grail in his hand.

In the Holy Grail, a rich liquid 'mystery' was swaying slightly.

Bai Shi took the Teardrop Holy Grail from Ashimi and nodded.

Ashmi successfully found the Teardrop Holy Grail, so the next thing to do is clear.

It's time to drink the liquid from the Holy Grail and quench Ashmi's thirst.

So, under Ashimi's eager gaze, Bai Shi drank the dark purple liquid in the Teardrop Holy Grail.

The dark purple liquid 'mystery' is like steel and has a very strange taste.

As the liquid in the Holy Grail entered Bai Shi's body, he once again felt the strange feeling when he first drank from the Teardrop Holy Grail.

A deep darkness emerged before Bai Shi's eyes, and everything fell into complete silence.

All things are gradually moving away, as if time and space have lost their meaning.

That was the same feeling that Bai Shi had when he first met the Outer Gods.

After drinking the liquid in the tears, Bai Shi also entered the same state.

But last time, this state only lasted for a moment before disappearing.

But this time, Bai Shi maintained this state.

He immersed himself in it intently, feeling this special mysterious power.

It's like the unity of man and nature.

However, this state soon dissipated gradually, and Baizhi had to be pulled back to reality.

Although he didn't know what the use of this state was, Bai Shi still tried hard to maintain the aftertaste, unwilling to let it dissipate easily.

After a short while, Bai Shi finally completely came out of this state.

Although it feels like some time has passed, in fact, time is still at the moment when the liquid just enters the mouth.

Ashmi's core continued to wriggle, absorbing all the liquid.

Her core contracted and then relaxed back to its original state, repeating over and over again like breathing.

Now Ashmi only needs to wait to absorb the liquid in the Teardrop Holy Grail to complete another transformation.

While Ashimi was absorbing the power of the Holy Grail, Bai Shi once again tried hard to recall the feeling just now.

After a while of attempts, Bai Shi finally succeeded in entering that mysterious state again.

Time no longer stands still, but instead flows at a very slow speed.

Although it is a little different from the state introduced by the Teardrop Holy Grail, it will be much easier after you gain experience.

As long as you keep trying, you will eventually master it.

Bai Shi began to think about the use of this state.

Maybe it’s a good choice to use it to communicate with outer gods?

But beyond that?
Maintaining this state, Bai Shi suddenly felt a silver mist covering the core of Ashmi in his body.

And the mist is still spreading, like gushing mercury.

At the same time, Bai Shi realized that a larger mass of air was emerging from his body.

There was a ball of brilliant solar flame on his body, surrounded by storms and gravity lightning.

Not only Bai Shi and Ashimi, it seemed that all the living things around them were attached to a ball of air.

Bai Shi immediately realized what it was.

This is not the kind of energy used to control the sword of Oher, but the energy of life.

No matter how small it is, as long as it has the power of life, Bai Shi can sense that ball of air.

In addition to feeling the strength of various lives, one can also see the source of their power from their state.

All of Ashimi's power comes from her own imitation, so she only has the purest tear essence.

Bai Shi's body is a mixture of the forces of the sun, storms, gravity, etc.

Therefore, the strongest sun takes the lead, and the rest of the forces provide protection.

It seems that this is indeed the application of the attribute of 'sensing'.

The attribute 'sensing' is somewhat abstract.

It is completely unlike other attributes, where the external numerical performance is very obvious.

It was not until now that Bai Shi finally mastered the relevant usage.

In future battles, we will have the advantage of understanding our opponents' strength first.

At the same time, Ashimi's core gradually grew and expanded inside Bai Shi's body, becoming much larger in size.

After absorbing the power of the Teardrop Holy Grail, she continued to evolve and improve herself.

Ashmi's fighting power is still rising!
Bai Shi felt the movement of Ashmi in his body gradually subside, and asked:
"Ashimi, how are you feeling?"

Ashmi's core began to spin on the spot, and he was very happy.

"Host, I have become much stronger!"

"The weak me in the past is dead! Now I am so strong that it's terrifying!"

But then, Ashimi's core began to wriggle again, and he seemed a little depressed.

'Well……'

'I'm sorry, host.'

"My previous feeling seems to be wrong..."

'Although the thirst has been almost quenched, it is still a little short of being satisfied.'

"Even before, I thought that the power of this Holy Grail alone would be enough to completely heal it..."

Ashimi emerged from Bai Shi's body and condensed his body.

Then Ashimi displayed all her strength and momentum without reservation, allowing Bai Shi to clearly feel her current strength.

Bai Shi felt the power that was almost identical to his own and shook his head silently.

He already knew Ashmi's current problem.

Now Ashimi and his power are very, very close...

But there was still a little difference, just that little difference.

That was the only thing missing from Ashimi at that moment.

Ashimi also spoke up:
"Host, I can now use more than 90% of your strength."

"When I have completely absorbed and digested the power, my imitation will be even more perfect than it is now."

"Maybe I can exert half of my strength at that time."

"The power of the Teardrop Holy Grail is unquestionable, and the extent of the improvement is actually about what I expected."

"But I can feel that this last bit of difference cannot be made up by an ordinary Teardrop Holy Grail."

Ashmi suddenly started thinking.

"No... maybe I know what's going on."

"In my memory, there seems to be a completely different Holy Grail."

"That seems to be a special great grail equivalent to the biological mother."

"Yes, this last point is no longer a matter of quantity alone."

"Please find the Great Holy Grail, the Great Holy Grail that contains the secrets of the great stars..."

Faced with Ashimi's earnest request, Bai Shi had no reason to refuse.

He had already promised Ashimi that he would help her evolve completely, and this would be a great help to him too.

"Well, since we've already found two, it won't be a problem to find one more."

"When I get the news, I will take you to find it." If nothing unexpected happens, the final teardrop Holy Grail should be in the 'Unknown Eternal City' at the bottom of the deep roots.

Ashimi nodded, dispersed his body again, and floated back into the core of Bai Shi's body.

Ashimi still needs some time to digest the power of the Teardrop Holy Grail.

But Ashmi also gave another piece of news:
"Yes, host."

'I was looking for the Teardrop Chalice just now and found a strange place.'

"It seems to have the same aura as your sword, but I was so anxious about the Holy Grail that I didn't take a closer look."

'Perhaps you could go and have a look?'

Bai Shi was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he could actually find clues about the Shadow of the Stars?
But that's true, there are only three "Eternal Cities" in total, and two of them have been explored now.

If there is no information from either of them, then there is basically no way to unseal the Shadow of the Stars.

Bai Shi thought about it and decided to go there first.

Anyway, Lani said that we should call her when we are ready.

After pointing out the way, Ashimi fell into a state of sleep and standby.

She needed some time to digest and absorb all the power in the Teardrop Holy Grail.

After absorbing it all, the power she can exert will be even greater.

Although he couldn't imitate it completely, Bai Shi was already very satisfied.

Perfect imitation is Ashimi's ultimate goal of self-improvement. Failure to complete it is like choking in her throat, which she cannot accept at all.

But for combat, being able to exert more than 90% of the strength is completely sufficient.

While on the way to the destination, Bai Shi also planned the next route.

First, there is the work to be done in Nox Stella.

Now go to the place Ashmi said and take a look there, then help Lani kill the shadow of disaster.

After finishing all these, you can decide whether to take a bath in the Corruption Lake.

As for what happens next...

Although Lani asked him to go to Yatan Plateau, there was no rush.

Now Lani has not locked the position of the two fingers, so she can't solve the problem in one step.

It's just a matter of giving a gift, there's no need to be in a rush.

The few people in Shadowlands are the biggest problem right now.

Not only was Bai Shi unable to sit idly by, Melina was also distressed by the suffering that these compatriots had once endured.

Bai Shi certainly couldn't bear to let Melina watch these rare people continue to suffer.

This time, I returned to the border to try to solve the problem of the rare people.

Just now, Bai Shi and Lani talked for a while, and he briefly recounted what he saw and heard in the Shadow Land.

By the way, Bai Shi also asked Lani if she had any ideas on how to solve the problem of rare people.

It’s a pity that Lani had never heard of such a thing.

She said that she couldn't give an answer if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, and she couldn't spare the time now.

However, Bai Shi can bring petite Lani over and let her see the situation for herself.

No one else can help...

Let’s get Hilbert out of Red Lion City later.

Although perfumery is probably of no use in treating that condition.

However, perfumer is a serious medical profession after all, and can always play a role.

Even if it's just a matter of mixing more aromatic herbs to help those people recover their mental state.

Speaking of Gaileed, it seems that progress there is also very slow...

Bai Shi thought about this and sighed.

Now the only progress worth looking forward to.

It was probably about him repairing the Elden Ring and making him the King of Elden.

Excluding the Shadow Land, Bai Shi only needs to deal with the volcano and the royal city, and there will be no more obstacles.

Except for the Yatan Plateau, most places on the border have already welcomed the royal army.

I'll go to Lani's place after a while to check on the situation, and also collect some information on the plateau.

Also clear up the achievements and collect some Fengling Yueying times.

After going to the Shadow Land to calm down for a while, Bai Shi was ready to attack the Yatan Plateau and take up the throne of the royal city.
-
In just a moment, Bai Shi arrived at the place where Ashimi pointed.

This is a building far away from Nox Stella, shrouded in dark fog.

When Bai Shi saw the ominous black fog, he immediately felt that he had come to the right place.

The fog that permeates the place reveals a terrifying and blasphemous force that seems to be incompatible with Nox Stella.

But it is this kind of strange power that Bai Shi is looking for.

The aura emitted by this black mist was very similar to the feeling that the hunting finger knife gave Bai Shi.

Bai Shi stepped directly into it, and a pool appeared in front of him.

It was an exquisite circular pool. Even though the exterior of the building was dilapidated, this part was still exquisite and intact.

The statue in the pool is that of Brother Knox holding a stone basin.

Looking at the pool here, Bai Shi immediately connected it with somewhere on the border.

It seems that there is also such a pool in the Church of Destiny, with exactly the same shape.

The pool in the church can be used for atonement and is filled with a holy atmosphere. As for this place...

Not only did the pervasive black fog give off an ominous aura, but the pool was also filled with corpses.

Countless corpses raised their heads and stretched out their hands towards the sky, while their lower bodies dissolved into a dark purple mud-like substance and stuck together.

This doesn't look like a place for atonement.

But Bai Shi began to look forward to it.

The Hunting Finger Blade is a knife born from corpses, a secret treasure of the 'Eternal City' Noklongn.

Isn't the current situation here just right?
The material of the Star Shadow is exactly the same as that of the Hunting Finger Knife, so they can be said to be a pair of weapons.

If this is the location where the seal is lifted, then it can also correspond to the paired relationship between these two "eternal cities".

Bai Shi walked forward and stood at the edge of the pool.

After taking out the Shadow of the Stars, Bai Shi really felt a desire from the knife.

This sword also seemed to be eager to be unsealed.

After thinking about it, Bai Shi took out a bottle of star tears.

Since the shape of this place is exactly the same as that of the Church of Bonding, it might be a place where Star Tears can be used.

The white consciousness floated to the front of the statue of Brother Nannox and dropped the star tears into the stone basin in his hand.

Starlight gradually emerged from the black fog, and a force began to pull.

The shadows of the stars are constantly shaking.

Bai Shi loosened his grip, and the sealed sword floated in the air on its own.

The dark fog gradually gathered, and the corpses and molten mud in the pool floated up against gravity.

In the end, everything seemed to be swallowed by a whirlpool and poured into the shadow of the stars.
