Chapter 879 Branching Out
High above Dominique, Mira nodded her head with a slight smile. 'She's become quite strong, hasn't she?'
Rather, Mira thought that Dominique's blood affinity was extremely powerful. All she needed to do was create a tiny cut on her opponent, and she was at an advantage.
'It's not something that most people would try to defend against either, considering how rare her affinity is.'
Now that she thought about it, Mira wasn't quite sure how to defend against Dominique's affinity. Not taking a hit would be the best solution, but for people around the same strength as her, that was a tall task, considering she trained the girl.
There was also the fact that using other people's blood was like turning their own strength against them. The quality of her Qi, while still important, didn't matter as much as the quality of her opponent's blood.
'In that aspect, I guess her physical strength is more important than her cultivation since all she needs is a single cut to win the battle.' Mira speculated but wasn't inclined to incorporate that into her training.
She wanted Dominique to excel in every aspect, not just one.
'Anyways,' She shook her head and slowly drifted away from the area. 'It looks like Elenei is doing a good job, and Dominique is finding her own opportunities. I'll leave them be for now, lest my bad luck rubs off on them.'
Then, she shot off into the distance, wanting to find something to fight.

Mira soared through the sky, her iridescent [Paragon Wings] shimmering behind her. The cold air rushed past her, but she hardly felt it. Her eyes scanned the landscape below for any sign of a worthy opponent. n((o()v)-e(/l--b--1--n
It didn't take long before she spotted a colossal figure lumbering through the forest – a towering Mid-Stage Rank 9 Ice Golem. Mira's lips curved into a smile; this would work.
She dove toward the Ice Golem, her wings folding neatly against her back as she picked up speed. The Ice Golem sensed something approaching and turned its massive head towards her.
Just as she neared the golem, Mira executed a sharp turn, avoiding a sweeping arm that shattered all the nearby trees and ripped up chunks of the Thicket. She landed gracefully on the ground, her wings vanishing as she drew her scythe.
She wasn't unhappy about the fact that she's only ever destroyed people's lives throughout her existence, but that she might not fully understand how to use one of her innate abilities simply due to her disposition.
Even now, she was thinking about using her creations for destruction. Everything she did revolved around her ability to obliterate. Her techniques were rated based on their efficiency at killing. The way she judged other people was determined by how much devastation they could cause.
Nothing else mattered, and she still believed that. All she cared about was getting revenge and removing a crazy stalker who wanted nothing more than to steal her freedom. In order to do that, she needed to survive this harsh world, and the only way she knew how to do so was through destruction.
'...Maybe it's time to branch out?' She questioned, but that thought made her feel a bit uncomfortable. If she did that, it'd take away from her time training, improving her cultivation, and getting stronger. 'But, if it can help me use one of my abilities, then it might be worth it. I'm not pressed for time, anyways.'
If it were anything else, she wouldn't even be having these thoughts, but as her Creation and Destruction tails were on the same level of strength and complexity, she figured it'd be more than worthwhile how to use both.
'They are two sides of the same coin, right? If I learn how to create better, I should be able to better understand how to dismantle.' That last thought brought a smile to her face.
'I guess it's time to explore creation in a way I never have before,' she mused.
With that thought, Mira decided to take a different approach. She would start by studying the natural world, observing how things were created and sustained without her interference.
She ventured deeper into the Glacial Thicket, her Soul Sense keenly observing the intricate patterns of frost on leaves, the way ice formed on branches, and how snowflakes intricately designed themselves as they fell from the sky.
As she walked, she tried to mimic the natural processes, creating ice crystals and snowflakes with her Qi. She paid attention to their structure, the balance of elements within them, and how they interacted with the environment.
She created a snowflake, letting it drift down onto her palm. It was beautiful and delicate, yet it lacked the natural perfection of a real snowflake. She frowned slightly, realizing she had much to learn about the subtleties of creation.
'Creation is more than just power. Most of the things in the natural world aren't all that strong, but they are there for a reason. Maybe I should start there before I try and brute force my way to destroying mountains,' Mira thought.
She sat down on a frozen log, closing her eyes to concentrate. She visualized the structure of a snowflake, its symmetry, and its delicate form.
Opening her eyes, she tried again. This time, the snowflake that formed in her palm was closer to what she had envisioned. It was more intricate, more balanced. A small smile crept onto her face.
'Progress,' she thought, but her smile widened when she thought of a better way to do this.
'Rather than wasting my time walking around, searching for insights, it'd be much more efficient to make my own.' With lighter steps, Mira walked deeper into the icy forest. 'But, before that, let's see what secrets this Thicket has to offer.'
