Chapter 991: A Bizarre Power
-----
Aside from the enhanced and improved version of all its original effects, the evolved Colony Mind also had an amazing enhancement to my Soul.
And as if that wasn't enough, also Telepathy and Telekinesis, things I never thought I could get out of one of Terra's Skills at all.

{Telepathy}: You can connect your Mind Waves with the Mind of another target and directly speak inside their minds. Targets must be willing to let you speak inside their minds for the process to be secure. When using this on a foe, it might be possible to attack their Minds instead, though the power of such an Attack will be based on the Skill Level and the Power of your Soul.
{Telekinesis}: By spending Mana, you can wield Psychic Powers and manipulate objects with an invisible Mind Force. The Power, Dexterity, and Ability of the Psychic Mind Force is based on the Skill Level, Mana used, and the Power of the Soul. Invisible barriers of this Mind Force and other forms can also be created using it.

Does this mean that Terra can wield Psychic Powers? I haven't seen her using them yet.
Maybe she'll have to Evolve the Skill first, something she hasn't done yet unfortunately.
With this I have the power to talk to minds, transfer information sneakily, and even attack other minds, though that feels a bit risky because they might be able to attack it back too.
And then there's good ol' Telekinesis, you can never go wrong with this one. It'll surely help a bunch; I've always wanted something like this!
Divine Beast Skills are directly connected to the Soul through the bond I have with my Divine Beast Familiars, so I think I might be able to use these powers in the real world.
Sounds really crazy, although I can't read minds with Telepathy though, only transfer thoughts and information and hear the voice of other people if they share it to me.
Or… well, attack their minds. Maybe if I do that I can read their thoughts? Though I don't plan on doing something so creepy to anybody that isn't a really horrible and bad person that deserves it.
Hmm, anyways, the other Evolved Skill…
-----
[Space-Warping Eldritch Spirit Body: Lv1/200 (Divine Beast Skill) (Evolved I)]
The Evolution of the [Space-Traversing Eldritch Body] Divine Beast Skill Inherited from your {Divine Beast Familiar}: [Mimy]. This Skill cannot be leveled up through Skill Points and can only Level Up through constant usage of the Skill.
A Skill inherited from a monstrous Eldritch entity capable of partially trespassing through the boundaries of space itself. By activating this Skill, your body transforms, taking into consideration all your Skills, Titles, Stats, and other feats, you become an Eldritch Spirit, an Abyssal embodiment of your very being.
Once transformed, your Stats increase by +1100%, with an additional 9% with each Skill Level, but you constantly use Mana and Spiritual Essence, with a Duration of 10 Minutes and a Cooldown of 12 Hours.
When transformed into your Eldritch Spirit Form, you can shapeshift your body without restraints and with utmost ease, and you can partially trespass physical and spatial boundaries through the constant usage of energies. Even without transforming, you can now also use these abilities without problems.
Additionally, you can produce Abyssal Outer Essence, which can be used to activate a variety of Abilities that be unlocked ever 50 Levels.
Accumulated Abyssal Outer Essence: 935.740/2.000.000
Available Eldritch Abilities:
[Aberrant Eldritch Existence]: Unleash true terror on your foes, your existence cannot be comprehended, and their minds will become insane. Decreases all Intimidated Foe Stats by -50% for 10 Minutes, with a chance to inflict [Paralysis], [Horror], [Soul Damage], and [Agony] for 1 Minute. Cost: 10.000 Abyssal Outer Essence.
[Void Channel]: Channel your Abyssal Outer Essence to summon the power of the mysterious and rare element of the Void, which you can permeate your body with and gain its properties to both trespass physical matter and negate it. Defensive and Damage Power of this Ability increases based on Skill Level, your Bond Level with your Familiar [Mimy], and Abyssal Outer Essence used.
[???]: Yet to be unlocked.
When fighting alongside Mimy, Skill EXP earned increases by x10.

This one was not bad at all either. Rather similar than before, but the bonus stats are even higher now. +1100%, huh? That's a lot! I haven't completely tried this transformation before though, mostly because it costs a lot of energy and lasts very little time, but I might as well give it a try once we fight those monsters we're about to confront.
And the new Ability [Void Channel] does sounds enticing to use. This Void Element sounds strong, but it requires its own special energy to summon, similar to Rita with her Malice. And this essence accumulates alone over time, mostly when I am transformed or using this Skill's other abilities.
Now, what else? We're getting close.
Ah, right, I did have some Skill Books, right? I wonder if I can use them to evolve one Skill like it has happened before.
I quickly took out the Skill Books I had inside my inventory, checking them one by one.
And then, it happened.
Two of them opened, flashing with bright light.
Ding!
[The [Skill Book: Iron Body (B Grade)] and [Skill Book: Enhanced Five Senses (B Grade)] have reacted to the [Robust Body: Lv10 (Max Level)] Skill!]
[Do you wish to use both Skill Books to Evolve the [Robust Body: Lv10 (Max Level)] Skill?]
[Once used, the Skill Books will disappear.]
[Yes] [No]
So that can be done! Right, the Robust Body Skill! A rather old Skill I haven't used all that much. It might have great potential. I remember it enhanced my physical strength and vitality; I think.
Okay, let's use these two Skill Books to evolve it then!
Even if it won't affect my real body back on Earth, getting my Avatar stronger is all what matters right now.
I pressed the [Yes] button and the Skill Evolution immediately began.
Both Skill Books opened their pages and then disappeared into particles of light, fusing into my body.
And then, the Skill evolved.
FLASH!
