Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God
chapter-801

After about half an hour, Amphorae had arranged her thoughts and calmed, "Tell me about this method you used on my husband. Is he still under its influence? If so, how do I remove it? Is his life in danger?"

"I - …" Luna's face was still buried between her knees, but it was clear that she had difficulty explaining. "I have the ability to manipulate energy as I see fit. Normally, cultivators are limited to what energies they can utilize by their cultivation, but I have no such limits. Not only can I manipulate them easily, it also comes with a host of other abilities even I'm not all too familiar with or aware of.

"One of my abilities allows me to subtly manipulate the emotions of others, and if that person is unconscious, I have no need of using any subtlety at all. The truth is that the energies of the universe aren't limited to essence, saint, celestial and enigmatic, there are other profound energies most aren't aware of and even less understand. One of these is the life essence of a person. This life essence decides everything from personality and temperament to vitality and life span…"

By now, how could Amphorae not understand? In fact, the mere fact she did horrified her. Was there really such an overpowered ability in this world?

Luna saying that she could manipulate all the energies of the world freely meant that Life Essence was no different! If a person was conscious, she could manipulate it subtly, changing small things. For example like… Making Amphorae believe every word she had spoken until now!

Amphorae suddenly realized why she was so trusting and why she felt conflicting emotions about protecting vs harming Luna.

Even further, what happened between her and Dyon was obvious. Someone had managed to knock her husband out and while he slept, Luna made him fall madly in love with her!

"His life isn't in danger… But, it's already impossible for me to undo what I've done. If it was so easy to make people fall out of love after it was already deeply seeded, I would have likely made him forget you long ago…" Luna said softly.

What she said wasn't without merit. Her mission would have been far easier if Dyon fell out of love with Amphorae and he would have been far easier to manipulate. From then until now, Luna still had no idea how Dyon resisted, let alone broken away from her. But, her means weren't by any stretch infallible.

In real life, just because someone has fallen in love, doesn't mean they couldn't learn to hate that person. Unfortunately for Luna, Amphorae had never once did anything to make Dyon hate her…

Years ago, Luna had tried once, but failed miserably. There was once a personal guard named Michael who Luna subtly manipulated to make him fall madly in love with Amphorae. It took time, but because so many had hidden feelings for this red-headed beauty, it wasn't too difficult either. But, even after he asked Amphorae to leave with him, Amphorae refused.

Luna never dared to tell this story. She knew that if Dyon knew this, his hatred for her would become so deeply seeded that her heart wouldn't be able to take it. Even though she never meant any harm and was only trying to give Amphorae the happy ending she had stolen from her, her actions had inadvertently led to Michael's death.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Luna hated herself. She was the cause of all of this, and even when she tried to help, she failed and was only hated more. Her once strong mind seemed to take hit after endless hit.

Eventually, Amphorae collected herself. The fact Luna dared to tell her this ability of hers likely meant she wasn't lying, but Amphorae couldn't help but be even more cautious.

"His life isn't in danger… In fact, his life span should be longer than a normal individual's now. Even if he doesn't achieve much on the path to cultivation, he should be able to live to a few dozen millennia old… That is the only gift I could give him…"

Amphorae was once again stunned. The life span of a celestial was only ten thousand years! Yet, Luna had practically just said that Dyon could live to almost 40,000 years old or more easily even if he doesn't cultivate any further. Just what kind of abilities did this woman have?! Where were her limits?!

When Amphorae thought back to Luna's explanation of Life Essence energy, she suddenly understood. Since it decided vitality and life span, since Luna could manipulate it, she would definitely be able to affect someone's lifespan to a certain extent!

However… What Amphorae didn't know was that this ability of Luna's could only be used by siphoning away her own Life Essence to another… Although she could also do this by taking the Life Essence of someone who was unconscious, Luna disdained to do so. How cruel was it to steal the life force of someone else?... She couldn't bear to do so.

There was only one person she had ever done this to. The only person she had ever hated with her everything and the only person in the world Luna believed deserved such a thing… The only person she had ever forcibly taken Life Essence from was her very own father…

...

Over time, Amphorae slowly learned of more of Luna's abilities… The more she learned, the more shocked she became… She became certain that if Luna said she wasn't a Goddess, no one was worthy of claiming the title.

However, in the end, it seemed that Luna's abilities were still too weak. She was still bound by many things and could only fully display her abilities if the target was unconscious. And even then, it had to be a deep sleep, making things even more difficult for her.

That said, her abilities were only limited by her ability to control when it came to everything else. Luna could even send a sharp wave of enigmatic energy if she so chose and the only price she'd pay was a bit of mental fatigue. She was truly heaven defying! It was no wonder those mysterious clans wanted her primordial yin so badly! If her virgin essence gave even 1% of 1% of the abilities she had, wouldn't it be giving whoever conquered her the wings of a God Above Heaven?

On top of all of that, that was only if that man was completely incompetent. If someone actually managed to properly refine such a primordial yin, gaining about 10% of Luna's abilities wasn't impossible!

One could only imagine what someone with a ruthless personality would do with such an ability…

"… yes, it's essentially impossible for me to be hurt by any energy-based attack if I don't wish them to. The same isn't true of physical ones though…" Luna continued to explain

"Alright, that's enough," Amphorae waved her hand, not inclined to listen anymore. "Then, tell me about these mysterious clans. Will they participate?" Amphorae already knew the answer to this question, but she had to. Luckily for her, because Luna's spatial ring was taken away, Laura had no idea that this questioning session was taking place.

"I don't know much about them…" Luna said softly. "I only know that the Universe Tournament attracted their attention because such large events don't usually happen on our small planet…

"When they came to check out of curiosity, they not only detected your spiritual vein, they also saw through the uniqueness of my body… Their methods… Are unfathomable…"

A solemn expression spread on Amphorae's features. She knew just how right Luna was.
