”This treasure resembles a type of parasite. Once it enters the body, it can use its supplementary state to form a layer of ice armor outside. Next, it will enhance the various qualities of the body. Moreover, it will also amplify them greatly!” Garen explained.

He spoke as he passed the Distorted Seed to the Two-faced Person.

The Two-faced Person took it with a steady expression on his face. The moment it touched his hand, he quickly began scanning and analyzing its composition with his Energy Machine Imprint. As for his task of coming here this time to punish the Scarlet Snow Sect, he had decided to pardon that minor incident some time ago. Since he was already at Level Nine Peak now, if this thing could really produce harmless increments throughout his body, Level Ten would truly exist if he could go any higher! When that time came…

A trace of nervousness flashed in the depths of the eyes of the woman behind the Two-faced Person suddenly when she thought of this as well.

Inside the banquet hall, the mummy and the two others were completely silent, save for the occasional cold sneers that escaped them. It seemed as though they were not giving the Two-faced Person any face at all. This was indeed true, considering the strength of their current alliance was already incredibly powerful. Since they did not have to yield to most of the large-sized sects, they were completely unafraid of the large-sized sects that were backed and represented by the Two-faced People Emissaries. If it was not for their positions as the Emissaries of the Alliance, these people would probably harbor intentions of striking out and getting rid of these Two-faced People.

The confrontational atmosphere in the banquet hall was clearly intense, despite being restrained by the three Level Nines.

”Indeed… This treasure possesses extremely powerful incremental abilities!” The Two-faced Person sighed in admiration and wonder as he put the Distorted Seed down. ”However, it has a deformity.”

”What deformity?” One of the male Emissaries could not help but ask.

The Two-faced Person glanced at him and said, ”Its attributes.”

”Attributes?”

A few Emissaries reacted and understood immediately. When they felt the chills that were being emitted by the Distorted Seed, they clearly understood what he meant when he mentioned its attributes.

”Its energy attribute is not bad,” The Two-faced Person looked at Garen and smiled. ”However, although this treasure can increase powers, it will turn the attributes of its parasite's hosts into frost-types. Moreover, it can even naturally collude with others of the same species through certain channels. In other words, after using this treasure, the user will theoretically be changed into a different race with a different type of genetic composition.”

”Lord Emissary is indeed amazing!” said Garen in a tone that displayed an uninhibited admiration. ”You could see its core with just one look!”

”What about the side effects?” The blue-haired female Emissary asked softly. She was somewhat interested now as well. However, she did not have to worry about conflicts in this aspect at all, as her genes did not have any attributes.

”The side effects are very simple,” said the Two-faced Person quietly. ”That depends on one's personality. Your personality will be affected and manipulated into becoming slightly colder. It is related to this treasure's energy transformation mechanics. Of course, in comparison to the functions, these side effects are simply negligible… Tch, tch, it's truly the epitome of a marvelous treasure…” He could not help but praise it.

”Colder personalities?” None of the people who were seated here considered it as a problem. After living for too long, it was almost inevitable that their personalities had already become cold.

”Lord Emissary, what are you trying to say then?” Garen opened his mouth and asked again.

”Why don't I test this treasure out first and see its effects? How about that?” The Two-faced Person smiled and looked at Garen. ”After all, as a Level Nine Peak, it might be a problem whether this increment will be effective towards me. I'm unsure whether there are great quantities of these treasures either.”

”You don't have to worry about the numbers. I only established this alliance because their quantities were too great. I was hoping to gather everyone's powers to protect this secret that belongs to us, the Energy Machinists,” Garen said in a 'calm' manner.

”If that's the case, I don't have to worry then…” The Two-faced Person nodded before opening his mouth and preparing to swallow the Distorted Seed directly. It was clear that he only knew that this was the best method of parasitism after analyzing it.

”Hold on!”

The blue-haired woman spoke suddenly the moment the Distorted Seed was placed at the side of his mouth.

The Distorted Seed was suspended beside the Two-faced Person's mouth before he placed it down again and looked at the blue-haired woman.

”Trisha Yuko, what do you think?” The Two-faced Person asked softly while furrowing his eyebrows slightly.

The gaze of the blue-haired female Emissary scanned across Garen and the few Guardians while her eyebrows were knitted together tightly.

”To be able to obtain a treasure like this so easily, it's almost as though they are gifted to you. Can such a wonderful thing really happen in this world?”

None of the three Guardians made a sound. They merely minded their own business and sat in their seats without batting an eyelid.

Meanwhile, Ice-Ocean, who stood beside Garen, smiled faintly.

”Lady Emissary, you might have misunderstood something. In the beginning, we dared not believe that such a treasure existed either. However, after numerous tests, we only let our guard down after discovering that they were indeed no serious side effects. It was only after then were we able to take such initiatives, because of our selfish motives. If we could drag a few lords into our alliance, our forces would become even greater as well. In reality, we who have used this treasure are already essentially considered as another race. We can even use this treasure to naturally transmit messages and communicate throughout great distances without using other technologically-advanced means.”

”Is it similar to telepathy?” asked the blue-haired woman while furrowing her eyebrows.

”You could think of it like that.” Ice-Ocean maintained his gentle smile. When he stood beside Garen, neither of them looked abnormal at all.

”Do you have any more questions? Miss Yuko!” The Two-faced Person was already somewhat unhappy now.

”I'm worried about letting you use the treasure first. You should let me go first instead,” The blue-haired woman named Yuko reached her hand out to grab the Distorted Seed from the Two-faced Person.

The Two-faced Person's gaze flickered. Nonetheless, he placed the seed down and allowed the other person to snatch it.

”I've known long ago that Miss Yuko possesses the Blood of Disintegrating Everything. This is a good opportunity to broaden my horizons. If this treasure can affect your genes and blood vessels, it's truly a priceless treasure then!”

Yuko declined to comment and did not even look at him when she stuffed the Distorted Seed directly into her mouth.

The blue Distorted Seed resembled a reel of thread that rolled directly down her throat into her esophagus. It melted and disintegrated speedily before being absorbed into the surroundings of the tube walls of her throat.

Woo…

Yuko's expression turned slightly strange. It seemed as though her body was undergoing some unspeakable pain.

Shrouds of faint chills began spreading across the surface of her body. This allowed Garen, who was slightly anxious earlier, to calm down now. After all, the Hellfrost Peacock was merely one of the Void Creature species. Since the universe was so vast, it was impossible for everything to pollute and invade it freely. He was suddenly worried after hearing the Two-faced Person say that Yuko's blood was the Blood of Disintegrating Everything. The Distorted Seed might not be effective towards that.

However, it looked like this female Emissary's genes did not seem to determine anything here.

Everyone waited quietly and looked at the changes that the blue-haired woman's body experienced.
