Chapter 805: You and I Are Like Old Friends at First Sight (A Late Second Update, Begging for All)

In this way, four of Li Zhangsheng's five Temporary Spirit Pets had already advanced to the Demon King level, leaving only the Golden Dragon guarding the Dragon Lair still struggling at the Lord level.

Of course, Li Zhangsheng also had several main Demon Pets that were likewise at the Lord level, but they all possessed great potential, and given their rate of progress, the possibility of them catching up later was extremely high.

Upon seeing the quality of the Myriad Phenomenon Spirit-Devouring Rat, a joyful smile appeared on Li Zhangsheng's face; the Myriad Phenomenon Spirit-Devouring Rat had become the first Half-Step Epic Temporary Spirit Pet in his possession.

If others knew about this, there is no telling how jealous they would be; to actually use a Demon Pet with Half-Step Epic Quality and Robust Bloodline as a Temporary Spirit Pet—if this isn't squandering a heavenly treasure, what is?

Li Zhangsheng was also helpless; if not for the restrictions on contract slots, he would never have used a Temporary Contract.

Judging from the data, due to its advantage in quality, the strength of the Myriad Phenomenon Spirit-Devouring Rat was stronger than the Secondary Ancestral Black Dragon and the Heavenly Heavy-Pupil Bird, and only slightly inferior to his few Demon King level main Demon Pets, placing it at the level of sitting in eighth and eyeing seventh.

Soon, with Kailan's translation, Li Zhangsheng learned of the inheritance the Myriad Phenomenon Spirit-Devouring Rat had obtained.

During this evolution, the Myriad Phenomenon Spirit-Devouring Rat gained the Sandstorm trait, a rare weather-type trait; once activated, it forms a sky full of wind and sand, which not only serves to obscure vision but also significantly increases the opponent's physical stamina consumption.

This was also the third trait of the Myriad Phenomenon Spirit-Devouring Rat, following the Earth Force and Swift traits.

In addition to traits, the Myriad Phenomenon Spirit-Devouring Rat also comprehended an inheritance skill called Earth Spirit Binding.

As one can tell from the name, Earth Spirit Binding belongs to the auxiliary binding type of skills.

Earth Spirit Binding: A Bloodline Inheritance Skill; summons earth spirits to bind the enemy and inflicts a certain amount of binding damage on the opponent, depending on the enemy's realm; when the user has an advantage of one realm, it will inflict lethal damage on the bound enemy.

Simply put, Earth Spirit Binding is a single-target binding skill with extremely strong binding capabilities, and when the Spirit-Devouring Rat has a major realm advantage, it will cause the bound enemy to die.

This is yet another auxiliary skill; the Myriad Phenomenon Spirit-Devouring Rat can be said to be going further and further down the path of an auxiliary Demon Pet.

Just as Li Zhangsheng was preparing to retract the Myriad Phenomenon Spirit-Devouring Rat, he suddenly noticed, faintly, that the distance ahead had suddenly brightened.

The five senses of a Pseudo-King are extremely sharp; even the slightest change can be easily detected.

The situation before him was not hard to guess; clearly, someone had broken the energy barrier of a Treasure Vat, which was why such a scene appeared.

"Attack together!"

Li Zhangsheng had no intention of retracting his Demon Pets and immediately mounted Aixi, as nine Demon King level Demon Pets swarmed toward the place where the light had been triggered.

In just a few breaths' time, Li Zhangsheng faintly caught sight of a human figure.

Besides that, there were several other shadowy figures nearby; clearly, others had been attracted as well.

At this moment, the other party also discovered Li Zhangsheng and immediately wore an expression as if facing a formidable enemy.

There was no helping it; the momentum of Li Zhangsheng's arrival was too astonishing.

Just on the surface, there were nine Demon King level Demon Pets, and each one gave off a feeling of being not to be trifled with, which made the other party feel immense pressure.

Li Zhangsheng did not act immediately, taking the first moment to observe the other party and the surrounding situation to avoid being attacked by the crowd; even though he considered himself comparable to a King, if he were besieged by multiple Pseudo-Kings, he would inevitably feel a headache, and it would very likely cause losses.

In the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm, if a Demon Pet dies, although it can be resurrected, it cannot be used again until one leaves the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm.

That is to say, for every Demon Pet lost, the contestant's combat power will be weakened to a certain extent, until there is nothing left to weaken or until they leave the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm.

Ye Youdao was holding a Treasure Box, and when he saw the nine Demon King level Demon Pets staring at him covetously, his face was filled with shock, and even more so, apprehension.

When Ye Youdao saw Li Zhangsheng on Aixi's back, he recognized him immediately; just as Li Zhangsheng had memorized the top-tier Pseudo-Kings of various regions, Ye Youdao had made the same preparations.

Ye Youdao was a top-tier Pseudo-King from the Southeast region and possessed five Demon King level Demon Pets, but compared to Li Zhangsheng, he was undoubtedly eclipsed.

"So it is Brother Li; I am Ye Youdao from the Southeast region. Truly, hearing of your reputation is not as good as meeting you in person; a pleasure, a pleasure!"

Ye Youdao wore a forced smile on his face while secretly harboring thoughts of fleeing; although he was an outstanding member of the younger generation in the Southeast region, no matter how he looked at it, he could not possibly be Li Zhangsheng's opponent.

"So it is Brother Ye, famous throughout the Southeast!"

Li Zhangsheng did not immediately start a fight, appearing as refreshing as a spring breeze on the surface, while inwardly weighing whether or not to finish off Ye Youdao.

With his current strength, he was indeed confident in being able to keep Ye Youdao, and he himself would basically suffer no damage.

However, if Ye Youdao put the Treasure Box in his hand into his Space Ring before being finished off, then Li Zhangsheng would not only have done useless work but would have offended a top-tier Pseudo-King for nothing.

Seeing that Li Zhangsheng did not act immediately, Ye Youdao felt a sense of relief; as long as Li Zhangsheng wasn't a blockhead, as long as the other party was willing to communicate, that was fine—what he feared was having no room for communication at all.

Under these circumstances, Ye Youdao felt the Treasure Box in his hand was like a hot potato; he did not want to stop here because of this unknown treasure.

As long as one goes further in the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm, the treasures obtained will be better, and even if one is unfortunately eliminated, the Heavenly Dao will bestow better rewards.

Ye Youdao knew very well that he had to make a decision quickly, otherwise he feared he wouldn't even have the chance to choose, and by then, even regret would be too late.

Acting on the thought that one must be decisive, Ye Youdao endured the heartache and said with feigned heartiness: "Brother Li, you and I can be said to be like old friends at first sight. I am overjoyed, so I shall offer these flowers to Buddha and use this as a greeting gift."

Ye Youdao did not dare to approach Li Zhangsheng, so he let a Lord level Demon Pet send the Treasure Box over.

As Li Zhangsheng took the Treasure Box, Ye Youdao sighed inwardly, though he still did not lower his guard.

Li Zhangsheng pondered slightly and said: "Brother Ye is so generous, I cannot fail to show some appreciation!"

Ye Youdao's heart tightened violently, fearing that Li Zhangsheng would suddenly attack, in which case he would truly have no way to voice his grievances.

Under Ye Youdao's wary gaze, Li Zhangsheng handed an object to Ye Youdao's Lord level Demon Pet, signaling that it could go back to finish its errand.

Since Ye Youdao was so sensible, Li Zhangsheng could not fail to show some appreciation.

Not to mention that Ye Youdao was only one step away from being a King, just the power behind him was enough to make Li Zhangsheng feel apprehensive; finishing him off would bring far greater disadvantages than advantages.

"Brother Li, then we shall part here. If one day I am fortunate enough to come to the Bashu Diguo, you must remember to notify me; I will certainly host a banquet for you myself!"

Ye Youdao was visibly relieved; he had no time to look at what gift Li Zhangsheng had returned and immediately commanded his Demon Pets to slowly retreat.

After retreating a certain distance, Ye Youdao, fearing that Li Zhangsheng would go back on his word, immediately mounted his fastest Flying Demon Pet and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
