Chapter 193: The Beast Spirit Contract of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle
Little Purple was very fast this time. After a while, Little Purple and Zhurong appeared in the secret chamber again. This time, Little Purple didn’t speak first. Instead, it quickly released the Godly Sea Steadying Needle and Kun Peng.
“Master, I’ve sensed it. The thing on the ground that’s used to hide the fragment of Senior Zhurong’s Spirit Pool is definitely the body of a Deep Sea Dragon that has been refined!” As soon as the Godly Sea Steadying Needle came out, it rushed to Ye Chen’s side and said, “I can’t be wrong. I’m too familiar with that aura!”
“As expected.” Ye Chen’s expression became serious as he turned to Zhurong. “Are you planning to dig out this fragment of the Spirit Pool first to replenish your strength?”
Zhurong nodded matter-of-factly.
“I’ve already sensed that the mental energy of this fragment of Spirit Pool is inferior to mine. The consciousness it formed is also incomplete. If I can obtain its mental energy in advance to complete mine, I won’t have to worry about anything happening when I weaken the secret chamber tomorrow.”
In order to weaken the secret chamber, they had to trigger the trap together in the two secret chambers to avoid the imbalance of power between the two sides. The overflowing power could not be offset and would ultimately implicate Ye Chen and all the mutated beasts here. Therefore, Zhurong naturally would not have the idea of taking the other fragment of the Spirit Pool for itself now. This was because that would cause the secret chamber in the fire array to collapse, which was extremely disadvantageous to everyone’s escape plan.
What it wanted to do was to break the cover on the fragment of the Spirit Pool and absorb the mental energy inside to avoid losing consciousness midway and causing the plan to fail.
This actually also explained another problem. Zhurong’s mental energy had already been exhausted to the point where it needed to consider whether to absorb the energy of the other fragments of the Spirit Pool. It could be said to be very serious.
However, Ye Chen still rejected it.
“This condition probably can’t be satisfied. You should rest a little longer and accumulate mental energy.” He said to Zhurong, “The cover on the fragment of the Spirit Pool can’t be removed now, but it will naturally be melted after you trigger the trap. It won’t be too late to absorb mental energy then.”
Zhurong looked very confused.
“Is its material very special? But I feel that if I were to attack, it would be destroyed in an instant.” It said, “Unfortunately, it’s in the secret chamber of the fire array and my mental energy hasn’t increased. I’m really afraid that when I mobilize my Spiritual Energy, it would trigger the trap. Otherwise, I would have done it myself long ago.”
Ye Chen waved his hand. “Your feeling is right. You can indeed break this thing quickly, but the other Divine Beasts here can’t do it. This isn’t a matter of combat strength but of the nature of Spiritual Energy.”
As he spoke, he pointed at the Godly Sea Needle.
“It also said just now that the concealment item was smelt from the body of a Deep Sea Dragon. I’ve read a saying in the book before that after smelting the corpse of a mutated beast, it can maintain some of the mutated beast’s original non-offensive Divine Abilities for a long time. From what I see, the rebound and the illusionary mist here should be caused by this. As a mutated beast with mainly water-type Spiritual Energy, it certainly needs fire-type Spiritual Energy to break through.”
“In that case, you should be able to do it even though I can’t do it, right?” Zhurong continued to question. “You also have Fire Spiritual Energy. What’s wrong with you breaking it?”
At this moment, the leader of the Feather Dragons, who had been silent for a while, interrupted. “You seem to have misunderstood Mr. Ye. This is something that humans created later on. If he breaks this cover, he won’t be able to maintain a contractual relationship with that Divine Beast called the Godly Sea Steadying Needle in the future.”
After it said that, the Godly Sea Steadying Needle immediately looked over in shock. “How could that be? Although I’m from the Deep Sea Dragon Race, I don’t hate Master because of this!” It said strangely, “I do want to preserve the corpses of my seniors as much as possible, but if I don’t destroy them now, it will cause Senior Zhurong’s mental energy to be insufficient and affect everyone’s escape plan. Of course, I have no objections!”
The leader of the Feather Dragons shook its head. “It’s not as simple as you think. This thing can actually be considered a trap specially used by humans to deal with their own kind.” It explained to the Godly Sea Steadying Needle, “This is also what my kind discovered while observing humans. These refined skeletons all contain extremely strong resentment. If it is destroyed, humans will no longer be able to form a Beast Spirit Contract with such mutated beasts. The original Beast Spirit Contract will also be invalid and will even affect the mutated beast’s consciousness.”
The Godly Sea Steadying Needle was stunned. “Master, is what it said true?” It asked Ye Chen, “But Master, isn’t the way you and we acknowledge each other unrelated to the Beast Spirit Contract? This kind of curse shouldn’t be able to restrict us!”
Ye Chen sighed. “What Little White said is true, but I really don’t want to take this risk,” Ye Chen replied. “If it was Kun Peng and Little Purple, I wouldn’t be worried. However, your way of recognizing a master is different from theirs. You still have the Beast Spirit Contract on you. If it affects your consciousness, it will still be an obstacle to our plan.”
Ye Chen was telling the truth.
The Godly Sea Steadying Needle that was forced to form a Beast Spirit Contract with Gao Ming in the beginning showed no signs of disappearing after recognizing him as its master. Not to mention that it did not form the red totem on the other Divine Beasts, even the pattern of the contract seal did not change into Ye Chen’s Divine Court totem.
However, it was an important member in maintaining Little Purple’s perception. At this moment, no one wanted Ye Chen to take the risk with it.
However, two Divine Beasts spoke at the same time.
“Master, Senior Zhurong in the golden feather said…”
“I say, haven’t you heard—”
The ones who spoke were Monkey with the golden feather and the speechless Zhurong.
Hearing the other party’s voice, the two Divine Beasts were stunned.
Zhurong seemed to have heard what Monkey said clearly and shook its tail lazily.
“Since you want to convey what the consciousness in my other fragment of the Spirit Pool said, it’s probably the same as what I want to say.” It said to Monkey, “Just say it out, that’s the way to solve this problem.”
