Living Life As A Game: Through And Through
/ Living Life As A Game: Through And Through 200 Wolf God Form
Moreover, along with her insufferable defense, combat on the ground was even more of a pain as spikes, poles, and all sorts of other constructs would extend therefrom to give the Spirit Realm expert help. From the lack of incantations being spoken, however, Elizabeth waged her enemy probably transcended the Mortal Realm as a Martial Practitioner instead of a Mage. Thus she at the very least felt glad things couldn't get much worse.
Still, fighting against an opponent while having to tank or evade the environment itself was too much to ask for considering she wasn't even in the Saint Stage. Thus, Elizabeth chose to transform into her Infantile Wolf God form for the first time in a battle. She had already experimented with the transformation during her days of cultivation along with her party in the Shadow Realm. But never had she used the form's deadly bloodline ability against another as it was too dangerous.
Now, however, she was going against a Spirit Realm expert that aimed to kill and more than likely steal from her. An expert that had a defense so great that her 6th Chaos Seal's activation along with a full out assault with her saber, myriad of auxiliary abilities, and spells, barely put a dent into her armor before it restored itself. Thus, with physical attacks being obsolete, she had to aim to damage her opponent's soul.
…
"Fuckin' hell man, what's with these kids?! Aside from that one boy, they're all supposed to be Kings, right?" One of the Spirit Realm expert's subordinates couldn't help but voice his frustration as he clashed against Sun who was being backed up by Jane.
"According to my probes, that'd be right..." The man's comrade also spoke in a depressed tone as Tristan put up an even fight against him despite there being a difference of four phases in their cultivation bases. Liam's existence spelled additional trouble as he would periodically send supporting attacks that would either scare his opponent or bring about mild injuries; always ending up as a dangerously close call.
"Hmph! The nerve of these people!" Sun said as he caught onto an opportunity to block his opponent's sword with the backside of his gauntlet. His free hand moved in to deliver a ruthless punch which only turned all the more devastating as it was infused with the limit of his controllable Space and Fire Qi.

If Elizabeth was present to witness the sheer potency of the yellow flames and partial reverberations courtesy of his Fire and Space Qi respectively she'd have to admit she was outclassed. As for the poor soul on the receiving end of this all-out attack, his armor nearly disintegrated at the point of impact as his body flew like a kite whose string had been cut.
Sun didn't know whether or not the man would be able to fight back or even get back up, but he didn't take his chances against someone a whole Stage of cultivation ahead of him. Without hesitation, he followed his downed opponent and made sure he'd stay neutralized. By taking a page from Elizabeth's book of doing things, he pulled out a pill, shot it into the downed Saint's mouth and then triggered an acupoint to force the man to swallow; thereafter rendering the man paralyzed for the foreseeable future.
Turning to his right, he found Tristan hefting what looked to be the corpse of his opponent, bringing it towards his direction. A moment later, the same corpse was tossed beside his partner and revealed to have only had his ability to move sealed away by a talisman of sorts. Jane only took a couple of seconds to encase both men's bodies in her most structurally sound ice before drawing up a formation to prevent any mishaps.
Just as she was finishing up, her hand couldn't help but tremble as a horrifyingly bleak screech and surge of True Qi in the immediate vicinity more than tripled. Quickly finishing up drawing the last line to complete her formation, she turned to face Elizabeth along with the rest of the party only to grow as pale-faced as the others shortly after.
…
"A filthy demihuman?" Elizabeth's Spirit Realm enemy questioned; the derision in her voice hard to ignore. "No, I would have noticed much earlier if that were the case… A transformation?" She suddenly gasped as she looked at Elizabeth as if she herself were the treasure she was after and with increased fervor she lashed out on the offensive.
"Bad move..." Elizabeth commented as she threw a most devastating kick to her opponent's midsection after blocking her sword. The physical potency of this kick alone was enough to blast the woman away several meters, yet it was the underlying soul attack that did any meaningful damage as it disrupted her ability to maintain her Earthen Qi if only for a split second.
Alas, that split second was all Elizabeth needed to draw out her pistols and lay waste to her opponent's vulnerable body. Elizabeth's Marigold aimed for her enemy's extremities, launching triple round bursts along the Spirit Realm expert's limbs while her Magnolia's slug rounds completely eviscerated her enemy's internal organs; punching out large holes along her intestinal tract, liver, lung, and even part of her heart.
Sadly, since people in the Spirit Realm possessed a body fit for proper cultivation and had embarked on that path, killing them became a ridiculous endeavor. Even with all the damage the woman sustained, both to her body and soul, it wasn't enough to end the battle as she could still move about; and move about she did…
Upon gaining the ability to defend herself after the pain of having her soul struck dissipated, the woman didn't hesitate to pull out a black pill and eat it. Instantly, her wounds began to stop leaking blood and close up as the woman screamed in what had to be the most pain she had felt throughout her life. She hatefully glared at Elizabeth before gripping her sword with enough force to split the skin on her knuckles and with tangible malice, she went on the offensive once again.
'Great, now she's sticking to long-range combat,' Elizabeth thought to herself as she dodged and shattered the earthen construct one after the other as they spawned all around her. 'My time limit's coming up as well...' She lamented.
For the next couple of seconds, Elizabeth continued chasing methodically as she let her body charge with Spatial Magic until her feet started quaking the earth without any added force.
"Huh?" By the time Elizabeth's opponent noticed, it was too late…
"Manifest, Gravity," Elizabeth muttered before unleashing the potential of her Spatial Magic against a plane of solidified space behind her. Under the effects of zero gravity, she accelerated at a frightening speed; the friction of her flight alone generating enough heat to ignite the air before she came within reaching distance to her enemy.
"You only have yourself to blame for this..." Elizabeth said as she traded her saber away for her Magnolia, using one bullet to stop her opponent's sword from approaching if only for the split second she needed to land the final blow; a palm strike to the temple.
"Game over," Elizabeth mumbled as she saw the light in her opponent's eyes fade as her body was catapulted headfirst into the ground with enough force to kick up a dust plume several dozen meters tall.
Elizabeth kept flying for another second as she couldn't instantly stop herself after launching herself. But when she turned back to assess the damage she felt confident enough to retract the wolf-like traits that had manifest alongside the Infantile Wolf God transformation. Her eyes returned from their current piercingly blue color to their original crimson, as her ears lowered from the top of her head back to their original position; hidden away by her long hair. The markings underneath her eyes also dissipated like dust in the wind and by the time she made her way back over to the spot where she had presumably killed off her opponent, her skin returned to its unblemished state; unblemished where she hadn't been struck or cut, of course…
"Mhmm… Hey, I know you're not dead," Elizabeth said after assessing the medical condition of her opponent. Of course, even if she wasn't dead, she wasn't far off.
"Hah, I lost to a trifling Mage at the peak of the King Stage. Even when I ambushed her group of Kings and Saints, no one died..." the woman wallowed in her spectacular failure as if to confirm that she is indeed not dead.
"Yeah, yeah, I know. Anyway, how'd you sneak by me? I had been scanning the environment every second since you left," Elizabeth said as she branded the fallen Spirit Realm expert with her Talent Stealing Blood Seal.
"Hahaha… Ptooe!" The woman spat at Elizabeth as a maddening look descended on her face, "Why would I tell you anything? I'm about to die, retard."
She was met with a sense of foreboding as Elizabeth's teeth shown through her grin. Before the downed expert could react, she was struck by several acupoint needles that ensured she wouldn't be able to move nor die. "Why? Don't you know there are worse things than death?" Elizabeth giggled as she activated her needles to trigger the woman's physical pain receptors.
"You ready to talk yet?" She asked after ten seconds of exposing her enemy to torture.
"Go… fuck yourself..." The woman uttered looking dazed as she felt like her body was being stabbed hundreds of times for every second she tortured.
"Mhmm, I wonder if your will would last against torture to the soul?" Elizabeth asked, looking almost delighted to take this chance to mess with another's soul.
"Wait? Wh AHHH!" It sounded like a pig was being slaughtered as anyone, regardless of what stage they were in the path of cultivation, would find pain to the soul dozens if not hundreds of times worse than any physical pain. The woman couldn't even last three seconds against this type of torture as her voice died out and her consciousness instinctively shut off to prevent herself from dying of shock.
Sadly, Elizabeth was an Acupoint Grandmaster with total control of the woman's body at the moment. As she wanted her to talk, it was hardly a problem to force her awake and keeping her in that state of agony until she got the information she needed was even less difficult.
"Now, are you going to talk anytime soon? I mean, sure every time I shock you unconscious by torturing your soul you lose out on a bit of lifespan. But as a mighty expert of the Transcendent Foundation Stage, it'll take a couple years to kill you in this fashion. You sure, you want to keep going?" Even the people in her party couldn't help but get chills as they watched their leader interrogate and torture someone so cruelly. Of course, no one did or said anything as this was par for the course in the world of cultivation. They had been attacked and most likely would have been subjected to the same kind of treatment or worse; depending on how sadistic their enemies turned out to be.
"Huu… I- Using my Earth Qi and… sensing the environment… I followed you from a distance… Fused myself and those two… with the environment as well to avoid detec-tion..." Amidst a fit of wheezing and gasping for air while still reeling from the pain, the woman managed to mutter out a string of words that Elizabeth pieced together. However, before stopping to ask for death as she knew it would soon be upon her, the woman began coughing up blood as she laughed psychotically.
"Bitch… you've sealed your fate… See you in hell soon… Hahah- ack!" Seeing as everything she needed to hear was spoken, Elizabeth activated her Talent Stealing Blood Seal and took in what was left of the woman's Dantian. Instantly, she dropped dead as the wounds on her body along with the backlash of having her cultivation base stolen instantly killed her.
