"The bone-transformation method? No, I don't know any bone-transformation method of your White Bone Path. I just have a few little tricks of my own."
Naturally, Li Ling would not tell Hundred-Eyed Boy that he was using the Myriad Incenses Illusory Form, derived from human-refined incense.
This divine ability originated from Yan Buyong's Thousand-Face Illusion Art. Li Ying had originally obtained it and developed an evil secret art that slaughtered cultivators and refined their flesh and divine souls into incense.
After purging his sect, Li Ling had destroyed the original version, but he had not wholly abandoned its power. Instead, he had transformed it into the great divine ability, Myriad Incenses Illusory Form, which possessed the power of mimicry.
In the hands of other Incense Path cultivators, this divine ability would have been no more than an ordinary art of mimicry. But bolstered by Li Ling's Fragrance-Sensing Talent and the incense ancestor origin he had mastered upon advancing to Spirit Transformation, it produced transformations beyond imagining.
In essence, this was a power of transformation!
Using the law of transformation, Li Ling assumed the form of a White Bone Dharma Aspect. He even inexplicably stirred resonance with the Great Dao of heaven and earth, temporarily acquiring the abilities that such an aspect should possess!
In a subtle way, this also accorded with the mysteries of the Incense Path's fumigation and transformation.
If an object were placed before someone whose eyes were covered and ears plugged, and who was forbidden to touch it, its scent would become its defining quality.
The art of fumigation and transformation could deceive the Great Dao of heaven and earth, passing the false off as true.
Of course, this method also had an inherent flaw: he had to preserve his own essential nature to keep it functioning.
