Chapter 227: You've become stronger, but you've also become darker!

This flame was as spectacular as when Uchiha Madara used the Majestic Destroyer Flame against the Allied Shinobi Forces in the Fourth Great Ninja War.

The flames spread out like a tsunami.

The blood-colored skeleton soldiers could not dodge in time and were engulfed by the flames while wailing.

They struggled as they turned into charred remains, and the Soul Fire within their skulls was assimilated by the flames spat out by the Little Charcoal Dog, transforming into a sliver of the Little Charcoal Dog's origin power.

Even Blood Saint was hit by a wisp of flame; he felt a burning pain on his scalp, and when he touched his hair with his hand, he only felt a smear of black ash.

A bad premonition welled up from the depths of Blood Saint's heart.

He waved his hand directly at the Blood Pool, and blood spilled out from the pool, condensing into a full-length mirror in mid-air.

In the mirror, Blood Saint saw a black ghost with all his hair burned off and his entire body pitch-black, staring at him unblinkingly.

"Ah!"

Looking at his appearance, which resembled a braised egg, Blood Saint was so angry that he crushed the mirror with one hand.

The blood crawled directly along the back of Blood Saint's hand and onto his face.

His scorched, pitch-black face recovered instantly, but there was no way to fix the burned-off hair.

"Hahaha, Blood Saint, is this what you mean by 'I've become stronger, but I've also become bald'?"

Ye Bai clutched his stomach and laughed loudly; this look of his had directly amused Ye Bai.

At this moment, the Space Pelican walked out of the Thunder Pool step by step, its whole body flickering with Thunder Light, and in the next second, it arrived at Ye Bai's side.

A contract rune appeared between its brows; it seemed the Space Pelican couldn't wait to sign a contract with Ye Bai.

"Contract with me, Space Pelican."

Having advanced to a Fifth-rank Pet Master, Ye Bai naturally possessed the quota to contract the Space Pelican.

He bit his fingertip to release a drop of blood and let it fall onto the Space Pelican's brow.

Immediately, the Space Pelican signed a contract with Ye Bai.

At this time, Ye Bai could feel the Space Pelican's mood.

At the same time, he also sensed the brand-new thunder-type skill the Space Pelican had comprehended in the Thunder Pool—Thunder Cutter.

【Thunder Cutter: Concentrates all the electric arcs on its body onto its wings, emitting a chirping sound like a small bird; wherever it passes, a scorched black mark will appear on the ground.】

"Space Pelican, first take Lan Fa and Yun Luo away from here."

"I want to have a showdown with Blood Saint."

"After I finish dealing with Blood Saint, I will come to find you."

Lan Fa and Yun Luo's Pet Beasts had already rushed out of the Thunder Pool.

Currently, only the Paper Puppet, the Sunflower Emperor, and Dahui remained in the Thunder Pool.

The Paper Puppet walked toward the center of the Thunder Pool as if it were soaking in a hot spring; the closer it got to the Thunder Pool, the denser the Thunder Essence contained within, even mixed with a trace of Thunder Origin.

It was undergoing a process of turning from yin to yang; once successful, it would transform from a Weird into an existence like an incense god or a sacrificial spirit.

Dahui had already formed a thick, giant blue cocoon and was currently undergoing a rebirth.

In the Sunflower Emperor's storage space, the Life Branch, after being stimulated by the Thunder Essence, was actually plundering the Thunder Essence in large quantities.

A leaf radiating Thunder Light emerged from the tip of the Life Branch.

The trace of life aura emitted by the Life Branch allowed the Sunflower Emperor to enter a state of epiphany.

Being asked by Ye Bai to leave, Lan Fa and Yun Luo still wanted to say something.

Suddenly, the Space Pelican flapped its wings violently, and the surrounding scene shifted directly.

They appeared at the entrance of Thunder Canyon, where bolts of Thunder Light in the distance were striking the ground one after another, emitting a buzzing sound.

The Space Pelican looked at the two of them deeply, then arrogantly flapped its wings again and disappeared from where it stood.

"Lan Fa, Ye Bai is inside facing the notorious Blood Saint; should we go in and help him?"

Yun Luo asked Lan Fa.

"Not going in to cause trouble is the best help we can give Ye Bai."

"Didn't you see he already sent us out? That means don't add to the chaos."

"Now we need to collect as many treasures in the Secret Realm as possible so we don't lose to others."

"We have to go to Imperial Capital University with Ye Bai."

Lan Fa said with extreme determination.

At this moment, at the entrance of Thunder Canyon, the ground began to shake slightly.

Then a crack split open, and more and more blood-colored skeleton soldiers struggled to crawl out from the ground.

Their entire bodies were wrapped in blood-red baleful aura, and they held blood-colored nine-ring broadswords.

In their hollow eye sockets, ghostly blue Soul Fire appeared.

They were looking at Lan Fa and Yun Luo with fierce and malicious expressions.

Lan Fa and Yun Luo looked at these blood-colored skeleton soldiers with faces full of rage.

Since their anger had nowhere to vent, they might as well use these blood-colored skeleton soldiers to stretch their muscles.

At this time, Leizhidongku.

Blood Saint did not show a surprised expression regarding Ye Bai moving his teammates away in advance.

Instead, he grinned.

"That was a rare Space Pelican, wasn't it?"

"It is introduced in the ancient books of the Blood Saint lineage."

"If it is allowed to grow up, it will be a quite troublesome opponent."

Blood Saint grinned.

"But it doesn't matter; as long as I finish you off, I will skin and debone the Space Pelican, extract the space bloodline within, and transfer it to another Pet Beast, allowing it to possess the ability of Space Transfer."

"The Space Transfer ability of the Space Pelican has a certain distance limit."

"If I haven't guessed wrong, you must have buried a spatial coordinate at the entrance of the Thunder Canyon."

"I am not talented, but to prevent you from escaping the Thunder Canyon, I specifically separated some Blood Skeleton Soldiers to lie in ambush underground."

"If your companion is transferred there, that would truly be catching a turtle in a jar."

"I estimate they will all be caught by me without a single one missing."

"I don't believe a fourth-rank Pet Beast Master and a third-rank Pet Beast Master can defeat so many Blood Skeleton Soldiers."

The Blood Saint sneered; he could not let these people leave alive.

Otherwise, the secret of his possession would be leaked.

This concerned a major plan of the Resurrection Society.

He himself was the most important foreshadowing of this plan.

If it weren't for his good relationship with the Elder, such a matter would not have fallen to him.

"Blood Skeleton General, finish it off!"

The Blood Saint stood with his hands on his hips; he felt that the Blood Skeleton General alone should be able to finish off Ye Bai.

The Blood Skeleton General picked up the blood-colored spear and charged forward, riding the bone warhorse.

The Blood Skeleton General brandished the Flood Dragon Spear and initiated the attack first; the ghostly blue flames in the bone warhorse's hollow eye sockets flickered violently.

At this moment, the Myriad-Change Silkworm transformed its body into a heavy war chariot, crushing toward the direction where the Blood Skeleton General was located.

However, the Blood Skeleton General had long been guarding against this move; it pulled the reins sharply, and the bone warhorse leaped into the air.

The Bone Spear stabbed directly toward Ye Bai's throat.

At this time, the bronze-colored True Dragon Sword appeared, transforming into a cyan stream of light, striking down heavily.

Bang, bang, bang.

The True Dragon Sword and the Bone Spear collided in the air for several rounds, emitting a large amount of Mars.

The Blood Saint seemed to notice something; this longsword was actually evenly matched with the Blood Skeleton General.

At this moment, the Blood Saint's face was ashen, and he said with great certainty: "This equipment-type Exotic Beast is fifth-rank!!!"

"Ye Bai, when did you break through? It seems I have to change my thinking."

"You are only a high school student, yet you have become a Fifth-rank Pet Master; it seems your talent is exceptionally good."

"I must seize your body and refine you into an obedient blood puppet."

The Blood Saint licked his lips, making goosebumps break out all over Ye Bai's body.

At this moment, Ye Bai felt that the Blood Saint was suitable for playing a character, and that character was called Dongfang the Invincible.

The Blood Skeleton General's spear technique was fierce, each strike carrying the sound of tearing air, attempting to directly crush the defense of the True Dragon Spirit.

The True Dragon Spirit transformed into seven Dragon-Slaying Swords, weaving flexibly in the air, dodging the Blood Skeleton General's attacks while seeking opportunities to counterattack.

At this time, Dahui in the Thunder Pool began to wake up. The Thunder Origin within its body had been replenished, and the crystal core in its mind had been completely repaired.

Dahui no longer had to worry that it would suddenly leave this world.

Huge claws emerged from the giant blue cocoon.

It was stirring the entire Thunder Pool.

A huge vortex appeared in the Thunder Pool.

A large amount of thunder essence adhered to Dahui's fur, forming armor that flashed with Thunder Light.

At this time, Dahui crawled out of the Thunder Pool and swam toward the stone in the center.

However, the closer it got to the stone platform, the greater the resistance it encountered.

The Thunder Origin struck heavily against Dahui's body, forcing it not to approach.

The Thunder Origin forcibly poured into Dahui's body, making Dahui extremely uncomfortable.

But after so many years of wind and rain, as long as it approached the Thunder God Axe and grabbed the Thunder God Axe, it would be able to obtain the power of the Guard.

Dahui had been looking forward to this day for a long time.

At this time, Dahui climbed onto the stone platform.

Golden Thunder Light struck Dahui heavily, and Dahui was struck until its head felt slightly dizzy.

However, it quickly regained consciousness and walked forward step by step.

It did not know how long this path took; in just a few meters of distance, Dahui endured countless bolts of wild thunder.

Finally, its Zhua grasped the Thunder God Axe, and it heard a deafening sound.

Violent thunder rushed into Dahui's body, and a deafening voice fell into Dahui's sea of consciousness.

"Let go, let go quickly, you simply cannot withstand my massive Thunder Origin."

"Let go quickly, or you will explode and die."

The Thunder God Axe advised loudly.

It was originally the weapon of the Thunder God; it did not know why it had ended up here.

Many of its memories were lost.

However, the Thunder God Axe knew that to gain its recognition, one had to persist for fifteen minutes under the violent thunder.

Dahui had already been electrocuted until its eyes rolled back, and it fainted while standing.

However, its hand remained tightly gripping the Thunder God Axe, not letting go for a moment; it was scorched black by the electricity and almost perished.

After the time was up, the Thunder God Axe let out a long sigh; it submerged directly into the center of Dahui's brow, helping it recover its body.

Just a little bit more, and this fellow's life would not have been saved.

It was the first time the Thunder God Axe had seen such a determined individual.

Dahui let out a deafening roar.

The blood-colored skeleton soldiers affected by the sound waves had their Soul Fire extinguished one after another.

Dahui leaped out from the stone platform and landed heavily on the ground.

The violent pressure was enough to make the blood-colored skeleton general avoid its edge.

The white bone horse was restless, and the Soul Fire within its skull fluctuated violently.

"A Tier 6 Exotic Beast?"

The words of the Blood Saint were squeezed out from between his teeth.

He understood that the blood-colored skeleton general he summoned simply could not hold out.

After all, that was a breakthrough of a major realm.

"Hmph!"

As long as the green hills remain, one need not worry about firewood.

The Blood Saint planned to grease the soles of his feet and get far away from here.

At this moment, Dahui had already engaged the blood-colored skeleton general.

The Thunder God Axe in its Zhua was the nemesis of the blood-colored skeleton general, while the True Dragon Spirit watching covetously from the side was very interested in the Flood Dragon Spear.

If it could strip away the Flood Dragon Soul of the Flood Dragon Spear, the True Dragon Sword would likely be able to reach a higher level.

The blood-colored skeleton general retreated further as it fought, while the True Dragon Spirit interfered from time to time from the side to prevent it from escaping.

After a fierce confrontation, the blood-colored skeleton general gradually showed signs of fatigue.

The True Dragon Spirit took the opportunity to launch the final attack—seven Dragon-Slaying Swords combined into a powerful sword array, surrounding the blood-colored skeleton general tightly.

Under the siege of the sword array, the defense of the blood-colored skeleton general finally collapsed.

With a loud bang, its blood-colored bone body was slashed to pieces and turned into nothingness.

The Dragon-Slaying Swords shuttled through the blood-colored skeleton soldiers.

The blood-colored skeletons turned into ashes one after another.

At this time, the Blood Saint felt a trace of fear.

"Hmph, Ye Bai, even if you finished off all my subordinates, so what."

"It's all thanks to your Zuoweihui for giving me a Space Talisman."

"If you have the ability, come over and hack me."

The True Dragon Spirit heard the defeated Blood Saint speaking to it like this, so the seven Dragon-Slaying Swords stabbed at the Blood Saint in unison.

"It's coming, it's coming, the Space Talisman is about to be triggered."

"Ye Bai, we are not finished."

Pfft, the seven Dragon-Slaying Swords passed through the body of the Blood Saint.

The Blood Saint had an expression of disbelief: "Why is the Space Talisman not working on me?"

"You activated a shield."

"Haha, I finally remembered that this Thunder Chinchilla is not the Pet Beast that the Death God Society has been searching for so bitterly."

At this time, blood flowed out from the seven orifices of the Blood Saint.

Just at this moment, the Blood Pool floating in the air shone brightly.

"Haha, Ye Bai, you didn't expect this, I still have a means to save my life!"

The Blood Saint turned into a streak of blood light and rushed out.

"Hey, don't go that way, there's danger!"

Ye Bai stretched out his hand in an Er-Kang gesture, pretending to hold him back.

As a result, just as the blood light exited the cave entrance, the thunder and lightning in the sky rushed over like a cat stealing fish.

"No, no, no."

The eyes of the Blood Saint were filled with terror; he had exhausted all his trump cards and had no strength left to block the wild thunder falling from the sky.

Only a startling flash of Thunder Light was heard, and the Blood Saint's Soul returned to heaven and earth.

Oh my, fever from COVID, sigh, why are there always various accidents, my head is splitting, I typed this out character by character on my phone.

My head is splitting, let's see if it improves tomorrow!
