Chapter 250: Ocean Anomaly
Exquisite features, a crystal-clear fish tail - except for her black hair which differed from the Deep Sea Messenger Anna's dark blue hair - purely from appearance, Jia Na after completing Local Deformation was indistinguishable from a true Deep Sea Mermaid.
"Splash!"
With a gentle sway of her fish tail, in just an instant, Jia Na, transformed into Mermaid Form, easily swam over a hundred meters away at an astonishing speed she could never normally achieve.
"Truly a darling of the sea."
With just one instance of Local Deformation, Jia Na could clearly feel the surrounding water elements' favoritism towards 'herself'.
Although, when Jia Na cast Local Deformation, she only simulated the physical structure of a Deep Sea Mermaid, her magic attribute was still Plant-based. However, due to soul Transference, the water elements were also successfully 'deceived' by Jia Na and voluntarily accepted her command.
"The key reason why mermaids receive the sea's favor lies in their tails."
After Jia Na completed the soul Transference of the Deep Sea Mermaid, she could sense that the mermaid's fish tail, to some extent, already possessed the preliminary ability of a Sea Law Shard.
And this was the fundamental reason why Deep Sea Mermaids held absolute hegemonic status in the seas.
"Splash!"
Her fish tail swayed again. After experiencing the wonders of the Mermaid Form, Jia Na swam back to the side of the Sea Messenger - Anna.
"Although the Mermaid Form obtained through Local Deformation allows me to gain the same body as a Deep Sea Mermaid during the transformation, the difference in magic attributes cannot be eliminated."
To put it simply, the current Jia Na was still the Wizard with the Plant Affinity talent. She had just changed her body and 'molded' her soul into the shape of a mermaid's soul.
However, Local Deformation still couldn't change the most fundamental attribute difference.
"But there's also a benefit to this. After completing the soul Transference in advance, the effect of the Local Deformation I'm currently casting is almost comparable to the effect of a normal Beginner Transformation."
Local Deformation emphasizes the use of the 'Power of the Mind', allowing the caster to simulate deformation of specific parts of the body.
Beginner Transformation, on the other hand, is considered a preliminary step towards the threshold of soul Transference, allowing the caster to briefly complete 'Complete Transformation' by leveraging advantages of the same attribute.
Jia Na's current situation was no longer a preliminary application of soul Transference, but rather a complete soul Transference of the Deep Sea Mermaid.
This also allowed Jia Na to achieve the effect of Beginner Transformation when casting Local Deformation."
"Swish—"
After putting the still-sleeping Deep Sea Mermaid into a brand new crystal ball, Jia Na contemplated the fish tail that made up her lower body.
"By my will, I command you, summon - Thundercloud."
Crackling instantly?
Amidst a blinding flash of electricity, the cloud-like Thundercloud appeared within the contract magic circle.
"Thor, stand guard for me. If I show any abnormality, interrupt me immediately."
After instructing Thundercloud through mental communication, Jia Na, who had put away the crystal ball, returned to her human form.
"Transformation, manifold—"
As the twenty-seven Mysticism soul domain incantations of Elementary Transformation were chanted from Jia Na's mouth, Jia Na, who simultaneously completed the hand gestures for casting, immediately began to transform.
Just like when she first cast Local Deformation, Jia Na's lower body quickly transformed into a light blue fish tail.
"Splash—"
Magic flowed, particles transformed. As Jia Na simultaneously completed the soul Transference, her long black hair, which was different from the Deep Sea Mermaid's, also quickly turned light blue starting from the roots.
At the same time, a large number of surrounding water element particles, as if seeing a 'relative', continuously spun rapidly around Jia Na, and even the sea area around her fell into a vacuum state.
"Isn't this a bit too exaggerated?"
Looking at the surrounding water anomalies, a hint of surprise couldn't help but surface in Jia Na's eyes.
Jia Na had clearly released the Deep Sea Mermaid herself from the crystal ball just now, but there hadn't been such an astonishing anomaly around then.
"Hoo—"
She lightly exhaled. Seeing that the surrounding anomaly hadn't caused her any harm, Jia Na's attention shifted to the magic consumption after this transformation.
"Based on this magic consumption rate, I should be able to maintain it for about three minutes." Jia Na had originally thought that maintaining the Mermaid Form would at least double the magic consumption rate compared to transforming into the Grimace Treant Form.
However, Jia Na's experiment this time revealed that in the current sea environment with extremely high water element concentration, her Mermaid Form could still be maintained for the same duration as the Grimace Treant Form.
"Furthermore, after soul Transference, the effect of casting Beginner Transformation is infinitely close to a true Complete Transformation—"
Splash! Just as Jia Na was preparing to continue exploring the abilities of the Mermaid Form, she suddenly discovered that the water anomaly centered around her was not only not subsiding but was also showing a trend of intensifying.
"What's going on?"
Vortices formed, waves surged.
At this moment, the entire Water Element Plane was like a pot of boiling water, continuously generating various water anomalies.
However, these anomalies seemed to have a thick barrier between them and Jia Na, merely circling around her without showing any 'disrespect' towards Jia Na.
As if at this moment, Jia Na had become the absolute Master of the Water Element Plane, capable of issuing any command to this world—
"No!"
After a brief observation, Jia Na discovered that this Water Element Plane, which didn't even have a plane will,
actually intended to recognize her as its 'Master'. "Quick, leave!"
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Jia Na immediately dispersed the contract power and sent Thundercloud back to the Spirit World.
"Splash—"
Looking at the increasingly outrageous ocean anomalies around her, Jia Na immediately closed her eyes and forcibly terminated the Spiritual Body Shuttle talent.
"Buzz—" Accompanied by a strong sense of weightlessness, when she opened her eyes again, Jia Na had returned to the Main Material World.
"Fortunately, I ran fast. Otherwise, if I hadn't been careful, I would have been forcibly 'kidnapped' by the Water Element Plane and turned into its plane will."
In a world where a plane will hasn't been born, the operation of all Laws is in a fragmented and disordered state.
Precisely because of this, as long as a being that fits the existence of a plane will is born in this plane, all the fragmented Laws within the plane world will spontaneously revolve around that being.
Just like before, simply because of Jia Na's transformation simulation of the Deep Sea Mermaid, the plane world directly misinterpreted Jia Na as a newly born being of this plane.
