Chapter 174: Yearning for a Meaningful Existence
The next moment.
Under everyone's gaze, the girl named Amber, with her black hair, rose to her feet, then stepped back half a pace. She reached her hand to her collarbone and unfurled the two tightly strained buttons on her inner shirt.
Her fingers traced downward for a moment, then from the impossibly deep valley between her chest, she pulled out a pendant set with a gem-like piece of amber. Holding it in both hands like a prayer, she closed her eyes.
She spoke softly: "The mundane world is but a dream, a fleeting shadow of life."
Rustle—
Accompanied by the gentle incantation of transformation and waves of magic power, Amber crossed her hands over her chest. Behind her, the void conjured the phantom of flipping book pages, along with the sound of rustling paper.
Her clothes dissipated, and an amber-colored holy light traced every curve of her dreamlike figure with exquisite detail. It then climbed to the tips of her hair, infusing her tresses with a crystalline glow that matched the color of her eyes.
"Seal this very instant within the radiance of amber."
A spirit outfit gown woven from purple, black, and amber coalesced around her, outlining a graceful silhouette. The hem resembled layer upon layer of overlapping petals, and the Soul Gem was embedded in her chest just as it had been during Lin Guang's transformation.
