--- Chapter 74 ---
The seven members of Wild Lion Gang were stunned on the spot. They swallowed their saliva nervously, witnessing 49 people appear with a burst of four-colored flames.
These people surrounded them with no route to escape, standing over faint red lines in the sky. It makes the evening atmosphere more menacing than before.
Even though these people appear to be of various ages, ethnicity, and appearance, they have one thing in common. All of them are 6-star Dou King Cultivators.
As if they were prey trapped in the spider webs, the Wild Lion Gang felt dread of death right now.
Baek Ain smiled at them and commented, "It's seven against one for each of you now. Don't think it's unfair because there is no such thing as fair in this world, right?"
"Y-You..." Tang Li shuddered in a cold sweat.
"Go." Baek Ain added while staring at Tang Li. "Leave the leader alive because he could be a good puppet for taking over the Wild Lion Gang. Another Black Ranking Faction would be under my control soon."
"Yes!" Forty-nine replies echoed in the cliff.
Like a bunch of shadows, the Wild Lion Gang witnessed several enormous silhouettes of tigers. The Wild Lion Gang's members couldn't do anything because of the strength difference between their group and Baek Ain's Fire Avatars.
Fighting is useless.
They could only witness the death reaper come and take their lives.
BOOM!
CLANK!
BAM!
SPURTS!
"ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHH!!!"
Tang Li is blasted from the ground and lands a few meters away with a ripped right arm. After coughing a mouthful of blood, he breathed heavily and watched his comrades brutally murdered.
'Just what happened?'
'Everything should be under my control. Our enemy is barely a Dou King, so where are these monsters coming from??'
"Blame your greed and luck." Baek Ain suddenly commented.
"Black Corner Region is pretty safe for people from big factions like the Wild Lion Gang, but you seem to forget that power triumphs over anything in this place."
"Just one small bad luck of offending a wrong person, and you're dying like this."
"Well, anything can happen in this world. You only have to be strong enough to survive it."
Baek Ain stood before Tang Li and indifferently continued, "Oh yeah. Your comrades are unlucky to have you as their leaders."
"I-I'LL KILL YOU!"
"I'LL KILL YOU, YOU MONSTROUS BASTARD!!"
"AAAAAAHHH!"
Tang Li heaved his chest and lunged toward Baek Ain, only to get slapped in the face heavily.
BAM!
Tang Li's head was "immediately." buried under the ground as Baek Ain looked down on him with a condescending gaze. At the very least, he didn't die and just fainted.
Baek Ain stretched his palm and summoned one of his parasites, releasing a squirming blob of green fleshes. "Be a good pawn and work for me from now on." He commented while fusing the parasite into Tang Li's body.
"Fix his body a little, Shakan."
"Spread your influence to Wild Lion Gang. You have a month."
"As your wish, my lord." Tang Li spoke in a somewhat monotonous manner.
Baek Ain nodded and released his avatars, sending them into thin air. He glanced at the other Wild Lion Gang members and ordered, "You can eat the rest for more energy, Shakan."
"Be careful not to leave any evidence."
"Okay." Tang Li bobbed his head awkwardly.
Leaving the possessed Tang Li, Baek Ain chased after Yafei and noticed her sitting on a massive yet tall tree with rotating silver threads around her right waist. Yafei is ready to attack if someone escapes from his grasp.
"Let's go. Your birthday gift is waiting at home." Baek Ain smiled at Yafei.
Yafei smiled back and kicked the branch, utilizing the rotating silver threads to float in the air for a few seconds.
She used the silver threads like platforms and accelerated in the sky, approaching Baek Ain quickly.
Returning to the Beast Taming Gate, Baek Ain entered his room and pulled out the Three Lives Ice Bird's Heart, refining it to create a new parasite.
Baek Ain told Yafei to wait a day or two, but it shouldn't be hard because he had a rough idea about this new parasite.
"This will be a little bit painful." Baek Ain breathed in and stabbed his chest, pulling out his beating heart.
Yafei and his other loved ones would get mortified if they knew how the parasite was "actually." created, but Baek Ain was willing to perform this small sacrifice for their safety.
Was it painful? Not really.
After creating over 69 elite parasites and hundreds of normal ones, Baek Ain felt numb when using his flesh and blood. And those lost chunks of organs or flesh would regenerate back anyway.
[Ding! Pain Resistance has upgraded]
[Pain Resistance(S) >>> Pain Resistance(SS)]
[Ding! Healing Factor has upgraded]
[Healing Factor(S) >>> Healing Factor(SS)]
Baek Ain ripped his heart out and experienced a moment of silence as a new heart formed quickly. He breathed in to circulate more oxygen into his new out and spewed a mouthful of blood into a container.
"Phew..."
"Perfect."
[Enhanced Hybrid's Heart(S)]
[Enhance Hybrid's Blood(S)]
[Three Lives Ice Bird's Heart(-S)]
Baek Ain grabbed a chair and sat down slowly, arranging the components on a sterile table. Calming himself for a moment, Baek Ain activated the King of Parasite(SS) Skill and synthesized his heart with the magical beast's heart.
The King of Parasite(SS) characteristic is the change in Baek Ain's eyes, which had pupils cracked like spider webs. The color of his eyes also changed from hazel-gold to crimson gold, appearing to be more menacing.
There is not much physical change happening to Baek Ain besides his skin tone, which becomes slightly darker or tan. Even Yi Xian teased Baek Ain a week ago because he looks like chocolate milk.
[You have chosen Enhanced Hybrid(S) as primary item]
[You have chosen Three Lives Ice Bird's Heart(-S) as a subsidiary item]
[Synthesizing...]
[You have obtained Imperfect Ice Phoenix's Heart(S+)]
A beautiful heart made of ice that was "seemingly." carved by a master craftsman appears before Baek Ain's eyes. It oozes extreme coldness in the form of white mist, giving off an incomplete majestic sensation.
Baek Ain grabbed the heart with his bare hands, forcing the coldness to submit with sheer physical force alone.
[King of Parasites(SS)]
The Imperfect Ice Phoenix's heart squirmed under Baek Ain's control, turning into a blue blobby mess. Adding his blood, Baek Ain concentrated on the parasite's function and perfected its gem-like shape.
Since the strongest parasite is made from precious internal organs(after so many experiments), Baek Ain created most of his elite parasites after sacrificing over 69 of his hearts.
They are strong, durable, and possess immense vitality because of it.
Some even gained traits from Baek Ain's body, able to use various abilities like Super Jump and Poison Mastery.
Of course, the abilities are limited, but still better than nothing.
"Your name will be Luan." Baek Ain smiled at his new creation, which responded by creating a small tendril.
[Name: Luan]
[Type: Heart Parasite]
[Grade: S+]
[Description: Luan is a parasite created from "Imperfect Ice Phoenix's Heart." and "Enhanced Hybrid's Blood." and possesses the fundamental ability of a parasite, which is enhanced by a few times because the material used is high-quality]
[Luan could control water-based elements, leaning to Yin Elements and a tiny Yang Element. It granted its host with micro-parasitic hearts, which allowed the host to have three more lives]
Baek Ain transferred all the necessary knowledge about parasites' duty to Luan, joining the newly created parasite into the hivemind.
"It's my pleasure to serve you, my lord." A pleasant voice of a woman echoed in Baek Ain's workshop.
Baek Ain snickered and replied, "Likewise, Luan. Now I'm going to transform you into the parasitic suit."
"With it, you can serve Yafei and me better."
"Of course, you can take any form after it."
By transforming a parasite into a suit, parasites could shape their bodies easily, as Cross Tail gave them more elasticity. After all, they are parasites and still rely upon their host.
"This is going to take time..." Baek Ain patiently changed Luan's bits into threads and sewed them in a suit.
...
...
Three hours later.
Baek Ain proudly looked at the tight blue suit with white feather-like patterns. It is similar to an embellished leotard for a ballet dancer, which somewhat explains Baek Ain's taste.
[You're a pervert, host] Alicia suddenly commented.
[Admit it]
Cough! Cough!
Baek Ain cleared his throat and said, "Yes. Yes, I am."
"Are you happy now?"
[...]
[Sex really changes a virgin, huh?]
"Oy!"
Walking out of the workshop, Baek Ain quickly went to Yafei's room and caught her playing with rotating silver threads.
Baek Ain appeared before her eyes and said, "Here is your gift."
Yafei blinked and saw the embellished leotard, giggling because this showed Baek Ain's taste. Even though Yafei has been in a relationship with Baek Ain for months, his quirkiness never stops surprising her.
She knew the leotard was the parasitic suit. And to give a leotard to your lover for a birthday gift? Yafei bet only Baek Ain could think of such an idea. Not only that, this leotard could also save her life.
'The design is nice.' Yafei thought as she grabbed the leotard, feeling the cold sensation upon touching the feather pattern.
"I like it."
"Really?" Baek Ain asked back.
"Yeah, fufu. Want to see me in it?" Yafei teased him.
"O-Oh, sure."
Yafei snatched the leotard and disappeared into the dressing room. "I bet you will like it as much as me soon~!"
After that, let's say Baek Ain and Yafei did a lot of bedroom gymnastics until morning. And The leotard adds more spiciness to the game.
