Roar!
A loud bark, deafeningly loud, instantly awakened all the beasts around it that had been affected by the soul shock.
Seeing the purple light in front of them, they jumped up and dodged it.
The Demon Eye Beast stared with its huge demonic eyes, looking extremely ferocious, and stared intently at the Shadow Moon Dog.
Zhou Ran smiled slightly beside him. "You dare to use this soul-shaking technique? I've seen techniques that are countless times more powerful than yours. You're joking!"
Just now, Zhou Ran immediately awakened the Liu Ying Huan Yue Dog through the spirit beast contract. This was the power of the Supreme Spirit Beast Contract. Not only could it awaken a beast that had fallen into a coma, but it could also instantly bring back a beast that had accidentally gone berserk.
Ou Chen, standing nearby, witnessed the entire process. Why was this young man almost unaffected by the soul-shaking attack, yet still remained calm?
"What is the background of this person... and how does he possess a ninth-tier beast?" Ou Chen's eyes flickered as he fell into deep thought.
"Erbao! Enough playing around, kill them!" Zhou Ran's eyes were cold as he transmitted his killing intent to the Liu Ying Huan Yue Dog.
The Demon Eye Beast never imagined that its strongest killing move would be so easily defused. Originally, once the Death Extinction was released, it could have killed them all, but now everything had failed.
At that moment, the Liu Ying Huan Yue Dog, having received Zhou Ran's killing intent, curled its lips slightly, its body trembling violently as it fully emitted the unique aura of a ninth-tier beast. The purple crescent moon on its head shone brightly, complemented by its blood-red eyes, making it appear utterly overwhelming in combat power.
Upon sensing the aura emanating from the opponent, the Demon Eye Beast grew timid. This was a direct suppression based on bloodline; even if it had mutated successfully, it could not withstand such oppression.
Even if the opponent was only a sixth-tier upper-tier beast and still immature, there were so many other beasts around, so out of instinct, it prepared to flee.
But how could the Shadow Moon Dog let it get away?
"Hell's Demon Slayer!"
With a loud roar, its body instantly transformed into seven demonic messengers wielding judgment scythes, charging疯狂地 toward the Demon Eye Beast.
Along the way, it emitted an eerie laugh, "Yahaahaha!"
Swish, swish, swish!
The Demon Eye Beast was now filled with fear, unable to resist, standing there like a statue, allowing the demonic messengers to slice its body to pieces.
Zhou Ran sighed softly. It was still a bit off!
This ghost-type beast was indeed difficult to kill! Its innate skill was soul projection, allowing it to abandon its physical body in times of danger and escape with its soul.
However, this technique isn't something it can use casually. It would likely take several years to regenerate its physical form, and it would suffer severe damage to its vital energy, causing its strength to decline. It might even drop directly to the seventh rank.
Seeing Zhou Ran once again defeat a beast of a higher rank, Han Chengyong and the others weren't particularly surprised.
"Lin brother, impressive skills! I am completely impressed." Han Chengyong no longer dared to treat Zhou Ran as a junior; it seemed that the leader of this group had quietly shifted to Zhou Ran.
Ou Chen, however, looked terrified. "A sixth-tier cultivator defeating an eighth-tier peak-tier beast? Goodness! What a prodigious young man! And he looks so young, almost younger than me..."
Zhou Ran's icy gaze gradually relaxed, and he exhaled softly before addressing the Liu Ying Huan Yue Dog: "This Magic Eye Beast's body looks delicious. Er Bao! Go taste it."
The Liu Ying Huan Yue Dog was already eager to eat. Upon hearing Zhou Ran's command, it immediately began to tear into the Demon Eye Beast, swallowing large mouthfuls.
"Are you sure you don't want some? This is a great tonic!" Haha!" Zhou Ran waved to Han Chengyong and the others behind him.
Seeing this, the others couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed. After all, usually after they killed some powerful beasts, they would transport the corpses back to exchange for honor points, rather than just eating them like this...
But it wasn't always the case. For example, demon-type beasts would usually turn into dark energy after death and couldn't be brought back.
But you can't blame Zhou Ran; this was a habit he had developed in the system plane. Every time he killed a beast, he would command his own beasts to eat it, never wasting anything. Once, after killing a Bloodstain Pig, even Zhou Ran himself ran over to cut off a few pieces of pork and roast them over the fire. The taste was far superior to that of ordinary domestic pigs.
"Lin brother... actually, this corpse can also be exchanged for honor points," Han Chengyong said with a wry smile.
"???"
"Why didn't you say so earlier? Erbao, spit it out!" Zhou Ran rushed over and tried to pry open the mouth of the Liu Ying Huan Yue Dog, but it was too late—most of it had already gone into its stomach, and it let out a satisfied belch.
"Never mind, Lin Xiong..." Han Chengyong laughed.
Then he sent a command through his mind. The Dark Gold Magic Bear, drooling beside him, couldn't wait any longer and pounced on it, gnawing away.
The other beasts, having received their master's command, also rushed over wildly, devouring it as if they hadn't eaten in ages.
"Um... what kind of bizarre team is this?" Ou Chen and Chen Xue stared blankly.
Soon, the Magic Eye Beast's corpse was reduced to a pile of bones, piled up like a small mountain. The sated beasts lay lazily, looking very comfortable.
"Ou, do you remember where your Six-Tailed Spirit Fox went missing?" " Han Chengyong asked.
"It was probably near a cliff. The Demon Eye Beast cornered us, and we had no choice but to fight it. During the battle, the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox was accidentally hit by a purple beam from the Demon Eye Beast and fell off the cliff." Ou Chen said with a bitter expression.
"Oh? It fell off the cliff. Could it be dead?" Zhou Ran suddenly asked.
"No, the spirit beast contract in my mind is still there." Chen Xue exclaimed excitedly.
The Six-Tailed Spirit Fox is also a noble-blooded beast, possessing an eighth-tier bloodline. It is said to be the offspring of the legendary divine beast, the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox, and is extremely powerful. It is also said that under certain specific conditions, the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox can undergo evolution—a form of atavistic evolution!
"Alright, let's get moving then."
"Do you guys remember the way?" Han Chengyong asked.
"Of course. My Earth-Drilling Beast can remember any place. Following it is definitely the right choice." Ou Chen hurriedly replied.
Soon, a strange beast resembling a mole appeared before everyone. It had a massive spiral horn on its head and was intimately familiar with the terrain. Any place it had been to was etched into its memory. It could also emit a strange ground wave capable of detecting conditions up to a hundred meters underground, making it a standout among reconnaissance-type beasts.
Soon, after two hours, the group arrived at the edge of a cliff, surrounded by traces of battle and the lingering scent of the Six-Tailed Spirit Fox.
Zhou Ran looked at the bottomless cliff and said with a grim expression, "It's so high, you'd either die or be crippled if you fell...".
