Chapter 328 - Woodland Wonderland

Arthur didn't even bother waiting for Purple Mist's reply, as he thrust out, immediately using an Attribute Control Skill.

Despite the Silver Waning Moon possessing the least amount of strength out of all of his Attribute Control Skills, it possessed the best synergy with his "twisting" Intent. With it, he could freely change the direction of a seemingly linear Attribute Control Skill.

Numerous beams of faint silver-green light shot out from the tip of Arthur's Wood Piercing Bident, flying towards Purple Mist at an blindingly vast pace.

The numerous Corpses that littered the martial grounds between Arthur and Purple Mist meant absolutely nothing to the Boundless Forest Yearning, Arthur's right arm immediately glowing, with numerous faint symbols and ancient letterings swirling around his arm.

Purple Mist narrowed his eyes, immediately flicking his fingers, commanding his defensive Corpses to block the numerous beams of piercing light.

When fighting a Taming Fae Master, the best thing always do was target the Fae Master first. Once they died, all of their controlled existences would either regain their consciousness, or fall to the ground, without any direction from their master.

Arthur might possess an Attribute Control Skill, but if he were to fight through every single Corpse that Purple Mist threw his way before targeting the leader, he would inevitably run out of origin essence.

Numerous defensive type Corpses, with thick external carapaces, and skeletal armour gathered around Purple Mist, while some of the longer range offensive Corpses returned fire, launching numerous balls and bullets of acid and burning blood towards Arthur.

Purple Mist just smirked, before noticing the faint light in Arthur's eyes.

The younger man just smiled, before spitting out a single word.

"Rise".

All of the Silver Waning Moons that Arthur had launched out immediately twisted ninety degrees, turning upwards as they launched towards the sky. Purple Mist glanced upwards, his eyes widening before another word left Arthur's lips.

"Fall".

The sky above the martial platform lit up, as the night sky glittered with dozens of Silver Waning Moons. The Fae Masters in the audience had already retreated several dozen meters away, but even they looked up at the glittering night sky with wide eyes and expressions of awe on the faces.

Arthur was only nineteen, younger than the vast majority of people present, and yet he could already do something like this....

Cloudy Moon's eyes lit up.

"Is this the power of a Sovereign Boundary Physique?".

The beautiful landscape aside, Purple Mist just narrowed his eyes, summoning hundreds of tiny bird corpses to take the barrage of Silver Waning Moons' that were raining above him. As one of the few core disciples of the White Dominion Sect, Purple Moon had access to all the facilities of the White Dominion Sect, in addition to a few of the Attribute Control Skills created by previous Elders and Sect Masters.

The purple locks in his hair grew more numerous, to the point where half of his raven black locks were also purple. One of his eyes changed colours as well, to the point where his sclera also turned purple.

Controlling all of the Rank 1 Avian Species Corpses in the air above him, Purple Mist clasped his hands together.

"Corpse Attribute Control Skill: Night of Ten Thousand: Orbit".

The hundreds of Avian Species Corpses suddenly fluctuated, their movements suddenly shifting, gathering in a large ball of feathers and rotting flesh above Purple Moon. The numerous Silver Waning Moons that fell from above collided with the ball of Corpses, but none pierced through.

Violet Sunglass gazed at the massive construct of flesh and feathers, showing a terse expression glancing at Purple Mist.

"What a formidable defensive type Attribute Control Skill. Even with just Rank 1 Corpses it is still-".

"Defensive type Attribute Control Skill! We'll see about that!".

Violet Sunglass' eyes widened, and another wave of corpse type spiritual essence exploded outwards from Purple Mist. The force field around Purple Mist expanded in terms of both size and density, reaching a point where even the Fae Masters in the audience were slightly pressured, despite being so far away.

Both Arthur and Vladimir raised an eyebrow, noticing the power of laws clear exceeded the first level.

Purple Mist just grinned, tilting his head back.

"This is where the advantage of being older comes into play! With your talents Arthur, you would've undoubtably reached the first level of Wood Laws, possibly even the first level of Emotion Laws! But Law attainment requires time! And you little boy, are lacking such a-".

Purple Mist's words halted, as a formless pressure was released from Arthur's body.

Just like his exertion of Corpse Laws, Arthur was focusing his own Wood Laws externally, affecting the area around him.

It was easier to see the affects of Wood Laws than Corpse Laws as well, as was evident from the sight in front them.

The gardens, which were directly beside where the martial gathering was held, suddenly came to life, every bit of flora and plant life suddenly bloomed, releasing a refreshing and extraordinary vitality!

The leaves grew stronger, the grass grew greener, the flowers bloomed vibrant reds, yellows and blues. Several of the newly grown plants suddenly sprouted upwards, under the influence of Arthur's Wood Laws. The speed was relatively slow, however the fact that they were growing at speeds that the naked eye could perceive was amazing!

Throwing out several plant seeds, Purple Mist's eyes widened, as Arthur clasped his hands together as well.

"Wood Attribute Control Skill: Woodland Wonderland".

The core Fae around this particular Attribute Control Skill was one that Arthur had requested the Returning Galaxy Auction House to obtain for him. He wasn't the original creator of this Attribute Control Skill, but rather it was one that had been used against him in his previous life.

And now, it was his.

Within Arthur's origin essence sea, a faint root-shaped Fae glowed as it was activated. The core Fae of this Attribute Control Skill was-

"Growth Fae".

The seeds that Arthur threw on the floor suddenly wriggled, before exploding outwards, roots, branches, leaves, vines, thorns and a plethora of other plant parts grew all over the stage. These were all plant life native to the Winter Rain Mountain, and as such, possessed a Wood Attribute, in addition to a powerful vitality.

However-.

"What the fuck!".

Arthur smirked.

The Boundless Forest Yearning had mixed in numerous seeds from spirit plants within that lot. The vast majority of which didn't possess an Imprint, which means that Arthur couldn't control it, although considering that there was so much meat and blood right in front of them, they couldn't resist not targeting the group of Corpses gathering around one spot.

Violet Sunglass' eyes widened.

"Flesh Eating Fly Trap! Blood Drinking Tree! Origin Essence Devouring Vines! Thought Absorption Roots!".

Arthur wasn't just planning of defeating Purple Mist. He planned on thoroughly destroying him!

All of these spirit beasts.... were specifically used to target Corpse specialist Fae Masters!

Purple Mist leaped into the sky, gritting his teeth and clenching his fist as he gazed at the sight below.

All of the Corpses that he had nurtured and developed himself were all being devoured by the spirit plants that Arthur had just created. Due to them being created with Wood Laws, they wouldn't possess nearly the same lifespan or vitality as an actual properly grown plant, but during a battle, such a thing wasn't a problem.

Standing on his flying Avian Species Corpses, Purple Mist just gazed at Arthur from across the platform, suppressing his urge to say something, lest Arthur makes a fool of him again.

The younger male just smiled, tilting his head slightly.

"What was that about age being one of your advantages again?".
