When the bone dragon’s clone army kicked up the dust Mike would use it to stealth travel to Ji Feng. Even though his pebble body would come off as odd, with so much dust and mud flying around it would be difficult to notice the tiny pebble’s oddness. But the same shit would not work if he wanted to get through the battle array and reach his next target.
The reason why Mike could not use the same tricks and distractions to get to his next target unnoticed was that the battle array formation heightens and connects the sense of the card apprentices that have come together to set it up. All the senses of the card apprentice that had set up the formation were near omnipotent in the formation. Therefore Mike’s tricks and distractions would not be able to get him past the battle array formation to his next target. Amidst a battle, card apprentices would definitely find a pebble that moves on its own very suspicious. Therefore Mike would have to get creative to get to his next target and the idea that came to his mind earlier was just that.
That was simple but brilliant. It was for him to switch places with Ji Feng. That was to say that He would transform Ji Feng into a pebble using the myriad devil’s hex and he would transform himself into Ji Feng using the myriad devil transformation at the same time, this way he would be replacing Ji Feng. And using his new identity Mike would not only have a chance to get close to his next target but also gain the strength to kill him.
But to achieve this small distractions like using dust were not enough. He would have to think of something that would fill the gap of time that would take him to successfully switch places with Ji Feng. Though this time gap for Mike to transform Ji Feng into a pebble and himself to transform into Ji Feng was less than a second, for a seasoned card apprentice it was enough to be noticed.
After thinking of it a while MIke could only come up with an idea that was not sure-fire but seemed enough, that was to have his clone army suddenly surround Ji Feng completely blocking the view of Ji Feng’s temporary partners. Giving Mike the opportunity to switch places with Ji Feng without getting noticed.
Having come up with a will-do-idea to switch places with Ji Feng, Mike first used the blood of Ji Feng that he had gathered to use them as the medium for his abilities Myriad Devil transformation and Myriad Devil’s hex. Having made the preparations Mike hurriedly ordered his bone dragon clone army to surround Ji Feng from all sides. The bone dragon’s clones acted upon his instructions and immediately closed in on Ji Feng from all sides making it impossible for others to check up on Ji Feng’s situation.
Once the bone dragon’s clones had played their part, Mike simultaneously used Myriad Devil transformation and Myriad Devil’s hex to turn Ji Feng into a pebble and himself into Ji Feng, but just then a complication occurred.
Mike was able to use Ji Feng’s blood as a medium to turn him into a pebble using the Myriad Devil’s Hex but he could not seem to use the same blood as a medium to turn himself into Ji Feng. Though Mike did not know what went wrong it did mark a tragic failure of Mike’s well thought and executed plan.
Mike had trained the abilities of Myriad Devil’s hex and Myriad Devil’s transformation countless times and each time he had used the same blood of the practice subject as a medium to train both the abilities. And all the time he was successfully able to use both abilities despite having to use the same medium for activation of the two abilities. So Mike knew that the problem did not lie with the medium he used to activate the Myriad devil transformation. And also because if the medium was at fault here then the Myriad Devil’s hex should not have been successfully able to transform Ji Feng into a pebble.
At this point forgetting the chaos and confusion outside Mike got to thinking about why his myriad devil transformation ability failed. The only time his myriad devil transformation ability failed was when used it to transform into beings of a higher realm than his realm. But that was not the case here because Ji Feng was not of a higher realm than him. And if it were really the case here then the Myriad devil’s hex too like the myriad devil transformation ability should have failed instead it had successfully transformed Ji Feng into a pebble as he will it to.
Was Ji Feng equipping a high-level curse resistance card? Mike immediately discarded this thought because if Ji Feng did equip a high-level curse resistance card then it would have been impossible for Myriad Devil’s hex to successfully transform Ji Feng into a pebble too. Instead, only the myriad devil transformation ability failed.
Unable to find the reason why his myriad devil transformation ability failed while the myriad devil’s hex was successful Mike became obsessed not even bothering with the confusion he had descended on his enemies by having their temporary partner suddenly vanish as if he was never here, to begin with.
The Myriad Devil body origin card was Mike’s biggest trump card, therefore when he saw it fail for the first time he could not help but stop everything else and obsess over it. But no matter how much he obsessed with it he was not able to uncover the reason why he was not able to transform into Ji Feng using the Myriad Devil transformation ability of his origin card.
Unfortunately for Mike no matter how much he obsessed over it he will never be able to find the answer within him or Ji Feng as the problem lied elsewhere.
