章 292: Chapter 292. Yasenia's New Domains. Evelyn's suspicions.
Yasenia sighed in relief. "Finally, some advancement in my cultivation technique. To complete the [Connection with the Celestial Bodies] realm, I will have to be at least in the Unification realm. I can't do much more about it for now. What skills this I unlock this time?"
Yasenia looked into herself and absorbed the knowledge she unlocked after advancing the cultivation technique.
Since they were about learning to control the elements in the surrounding, her three new skills were all domain-class skills.
Although [Moonless Night] has served her enough until now, Yasenia began seeing its limits.
The amount of slow it dealt to her enemies was between five to ten percent, depending on the opponent's strength in comparison to her own. It was not bad at all, and in a battle against someone with similar power, it could mean the difference between life and death. However, the domain skills she has seen through her years were so much better than [Moonless Night] that it could only compare when the special effect activated on the nights without a Moon.
For those that don't remember, the Domain's extra effect was absorbing the energy of those who were inside of it. A very powerful ability, however, as explained before, this effect could only be activated once a month, whenever there was a moonless night.
Yasenia had never managed to activate it meaningfully with the extra effect. The condition was honestly very infrequent. Of course, this didn't take the strength of the skill whenever she triggered [Day and Night cycle], where all her abilities would be dealing their additional effects.
In short, it was a nice domain but nothing too crazy. The Domains she just unlocked were much stronger.
The first Domain was [Scorched Sun Domain].
When Yasenia activated this Domain, it constantly created sun-fire pillars below those that Yasenia considered hostile. If they hit, these pillars were as strong as receiving a full-strength [Sunset]. Moreover, it also increased the strength of Yasenia's Sun attributed skills more than twofold.
If Yasenia had this skill activated and used [Noon], the results would be impressive, to say the least.
The second Domain was [Freezing Moon Domain].
After it spread in the surroundings, it would create silver snow in a large area around Yasenia. This Domain was much wider and larger than the other two. Those snowflakes exploded in contact. The explosion wasn't big; it was a small, melon-sized silver explosion.
However, the chilling Moon attribute was very damaging and could freeze body parts, making their attacks slower and more cumbersome. Moreover, there were so many snowflakes inside the Domain that the damage wasn't any less than [Scorched Sun Domain].
Like the previous Domain, it only activated when they touched something that Yasenia considered hostile, and it also increased the strength of all Moon-attributed skills.
The third and final domain was [Star night Domain].
This Domain was different from the other two. It wasn't an attack domain but a defensive one. When Yasenia activated this domain, her surroundings would darken, and countless floating stars would appear in the surroundings. These stars would move at high speeds and block any incoming projectiles.
However, that wasn't all. Yasenia's star-attributed skills needed [Starry Sky] to generate stars and become stronger. After activating this domain, the [Starry Sky] skill would become much faster in forming stars, and Yasenia would also be able to use the Domain's floating stars in her skills. The Domain's stars were weaker than the ones created by [Starry sky], but there were many more, compensating in numbers.
The domain also helped defend against projectiles to all the allies inside of it. It was a very versatile and powerful domain.
In short, the Sun Domain was better in small-scale battles, the Moon domain in wide-scale battles, and the Star domain in defensive battles. It wasn't an absolute since fighting against a speed user would instantly translate to using the [Freezing Moon Domain], but that summary was generally accurate.
Yasenia inspected them and experimented with them for two more hours, making a full twenty-four-hour cycle since she began cultivating. "If I had these three domains, they wouldn't have had to die…."
Yasenia shook her head and sighed, "Stop thinking about it. I've already gone berserk once. I don't really want to experience that feeling of betrayal again."
Then, she took the communication device and noticed that she was somewhat nervous. 'I haven't talked to them for more than twenty years. I thought that cultivating and breaking through would relax me, but it seems that I couldn't.'
The dragoness frowned and walked in circles, 'What if they notice something different? Will they mind? They shouldn't, right? But... How will they react when they know about my Trial? Especially Cecile... Shit, the more I think about it, the worse it becomes.'
Yasenia groaned, 'Ugh, let's get over it. The fastest I call them, the fastest it would go by. I will also not talk about the Trial until we are all together. Speaking face to face is best for these kinds of situations.'
Yasenia looked at the orange and blue device and induced her energy inside. The lines across it glowed, and she connected with the other end of the device.
The first one she had called was Angel. 'She was very clingy, so she should miss me a lot, right? Angel should be a good choice to start speaking with them again.'
Yasenia waited for the communication to get received by Angel. After five minutes of waiting, Yasenia's brows began to approach each other. Yasenia's nervousness transformed into worry, and she couldn't help but question. "Why isn't Angel answering? Is she in the middle of something? Normally, she would have answered my call rather quickly, right?"
Yasenia began pacing back and forth, her tail hitting the ground as her thoughts wandered. 'Let's think logically. When I was in the middle of my Trial, I also couldn't answer. Angel went to find out about... That thing... Right, the [Crystal Key]. Maybe she is in the middle of her Trial.'
Her brows locked as her heart felt bad. 'However, I will have to make sure. First, let's communicate with the others, and then I will return to the town and find Han Xue. She should be able to tell me where to go.'
Yasenia waited for half an hour more, in case Angel answered, but only silence returned from the communication device.
The dragoness shook her head and thought about who to call next. 'I should call Kali, right? She is the closest one... Or at least should be the closest one to me.'
With that in mind, she activated the device again and called Kali.
Her golden slit eyes locked onto the orange-green communication device as if staring at it would make the call go through.
However, no one answered.
Yasenia became so restless that her tail began slapping the floor with enough strength to make a hole. "Why are they not answering!? Did something really happen? What if-"
Yasenia stopped her train of thought and took in a deep breath. 'Relax. A calm mind is the best thing you can have in these situations. Don't become hasty, don't jump to conclusions, and don't let your negative thoughts cripple your thinking ability. Nothing good comes out of it.'
In just some breaths, the restlessness around her seemed to evaporate as her entire demeanor became calm and collected. Her eyes were now like a placid golden lake, devoid of ripples and profound enough to leave an impression on anyone.
This was another thing she learned during the twenty-plus years, to control her emotions. There were times were her getting carried away resulted in the death of many, so it was a skill not learned by choice but by need. And these skills learned this way stayed with a person for life. 'Which are my options? They might be stranded in a Trial zone, a place where communication with the outside is impossible, or have fought and lost their devices in the way.'
Yasenia calmly analyzed, 'However, we can't ignore the other possibilities. They can also be captured, dead, or unconscious. If so, I have to move fast and track them down. Still, I will call the others while returning to the Lost Town. If none of them answer, then it is clear that there is a problem. If any of the others answer, I will be able to figure out what is going on.'
Yasenia thought about it and decided on Evelyn. Andrea and Cecile could already be in their way if something had happened. But, if I remember correctly, Evelyn was doing a Trial herself, so she might also be in trouble. Evelyn not answering would practically lift Yasenia's alert bells to the max.
Yasenia called Evelyn.
At first, the person on the other end didn't answer. When Yasenia's brows began locking, a mischievous voice leaked from the device. "Hi, Hi, Hi! What does my beautiful and big-breasted dragoness want~?"
Yasenia stared dumbly at the communication device for a good second.
Right after hearing Evelyn's voice, her feelings of longing burst out, and her eyes became teary. 'How long has it been since I listened to Evelyn's voice? How many nights have I dreamt about them? I can finally hear one of them again...'
On the other side of the communication device, Evelyn was somewhat confused. Yasenia would normally answer right away, "Hm? Yasenia is something wrong? Why aren't you answering?"
Yasenia coughed to control her voice from choking up and spoke with a normal and casual tone. "Ah, ahem. Sorry for that, Evelyn. I finished what I had to do and wanted to reunite with all of you. Where are you?"
On the other side of the communication, Evelyn was already frowning.
Our mischievous girl was very perceptive. The moment Yasenia spoke, she could already feel that Yasenia was acting strangely. 'Not a single comment or laugh. She normally would have chuckled slightly at my comment. Moreover, her tone is… off. Too calm without the typical coquettishness she has. Did something happen?'
Evelyn decided to answer first and continue listening. Her dragoness had only spoken a single sentence, so she was unsure. "I've just finished my thing over here. You will be surprised at my burst of cultivation~. I'm going now to retrieve the lightning treasure with Sierra. Then, we can finally stay together! I've really missed youuur Heavenly tits!"
Yasenia answered calmly with her slightly deep and mellow voice. "Good. When you are done, call me again, and we can start planning how to meet each other."
Evelyn blinked repeatedly and looked at the communication device. 'Who is the one on the other side of the device?'
Evelyn asked, her voice serious."Yasenia, are you okay? Did something happen?"
Yasenia was confused. She didn't understand why Evelyn would ask this question so suddenly. 'My tone was perfectly normal. Why is she asking that?'
Yasenia answered, her voice maintaining a calm, rich, and mellow tone. "Why do you ask? I'm perfectly fine. Although some things have indeed happened, I've already dealt with them."
Evelyn thought, 'I will ask her directly when we meet again. My Yasensor is tingling, so I'm sure that something is off!'
Yasenia suddenly thought that Evelyn might know about Angel and Kali, so she asked. "By the way, do you know where Kali and Angel are? I can't get in touch with them."
Evelyn looked at the communication device with a bewildered face, 'Am I really speaking with Yasenia? What is this "by the way"? She would have normally asked about that first!'
Nonetheless, Evelyn could guess that this calm person was Yasenia, so she answered her. "No, the last time I spoke with them was some weeks ago. I was too busy with the Thunder Throne, so I didn't try to contact any of them."
Yasenia nodded to herself. Then, she said goodbye, "I will call Andrea and Cecile now. See you soon, Evelyn."
Evelyn answered, "See you soon; I love you."
Yasenia smiled and answered, "I love you too."
Then, she cut the communication, leaving a stupefied Evelyn behind. 'Where is my lovey-dovey goodbye banter!?'
