The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 767 - 315: Holy Scorpion Demon

"Oh? Have you already come out?"

Ye Aobai’s swaying folding fan suddenly closed, and three heads lined up in front of him:

"This king’s timing is quite fortuitous."

"Neither having foolishly stood here for half a day nor missed the opportunity due to not having reached the summit, could it be that this had been tailor-made for this king as a preparatory Fond Spirit?"

"It turns out that Your Excellency also has a narcissistic side."

Ye Buchun grinned and laughed, "If you get scared till you’re running and pissing yourself later, that would indeed be quite a show."

"Let’s wait and see."

Ye Aobai flexed his fingers, his piercing cold gaze making it hard for anyone to look directly at him.

"As expected, the number of Holy Ancestral Veins isn’t just one... I wonder if the quality of the bloodline will be reduced..."

Ye Mo’s lips pursed, her expression solemn.

Similarly, observing carefully, Ye Hanjun faintly discovered.

The three altars that emerged from the heart of the earth were now positioned at the very center of the mountain’s summit, now forming a perfect equilateral triangle against each other.

On each altar, an outer ring consisted of layer upon layer of protective formation patterns, serving to seal.

At the innermost, there lay a dull black egg, roughly ten meters tall.

Initially, these three eggs were devoid of any breath, resembling dead objects.

As the formation patterns dissolved one by one, hexagonal fissures grew, and the three eggs became violent, with blood vigor fluctuations more vigorous than those of giant dragons, enveloping the mountaintop.

"This sensation... It doesn’t quite feel like a newborn."

"Rather, it seems like it grew for a while and was resealed using a secret technique in the form of an egg..."

Ye Yunruo, her delicate brows furrowed, summoned her Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits.

It was a trio of soundwave attribute special life forms, Demi-human’s "Cricket Women," round-headed, large-chested, and winged.

Her chewable mouthparts and filamentous antennae gave her an exotic look.

Her extraordinarily developed long legs were not only covered with fluffy spikes but also bent in an inhuman posture, concealing a terrifying bounce that would surely startle any enemy.

Tri-Heart Cicada, Fond Spirits of Demon possessing three hearts.

The sound-producing organs appeared to be located at the root of the wings, but upon tracing the origin, they were inextricably linked to the three thoracic chambers.

Stupid Sound Rabbit, a soft downy pink-purple eared rabbit, petite in form and soft in fur.

If one thought such Fond Spirits were harmless, the price often paid was death.

"Hmm... Seems there’s a thread of pure Demon Qi? It appears this emperor won’t leave empty-handed."

Ye Mochou suddenly stepped forward, the Abyss of Destruction slowly spreading beneath his feet, the Devouring Heaven and Eating Earth Demon Snake King scaling the abyss’s walls foot by foot.

His Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits, White Bird Demon, Medicine Demon, Fission Snake Demon, also emerged from the Contract Space, immediately taking a fighting stance.

"Click—Scratch!"

The eggshells completely shattered, and three dark figures leaped forth.

They didn’t emit any fierce screeches, unusually falling into silence instead.

But the ancient primordial aura spread atop the summit, and the surrounding Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits, feeling the pressure of their bloodlines, started to roar fiercely.

"&#%@#!"

The smoke and dust slowly settled, and naturally, the strongest individual was the first to jump into view.

Ye Hanjun’s magatama eyes suddenly deepened, and as the purple phosphorescence flickered, he saw a humanoid creature sixty meters tall.

It surprisingly had the head of a scorpion, the body of a human, arms like pincers, and legs holding two tails.

Atop its head, a single black shiny horn forcefully stood erect.

Black hair like a thicket stretched down its back, and from the side, it bore a slight resemblance to a hedgehog.

Further down, this monster also bore an abundance of black fur, coupled with some black scales.

The most terrifying and discomforting aspect was probably the two scorpion tails splitting from its heels, their curved arcs resembling the fangs of a vampire, and the shadowy miasmic poison gas that lingered around within a radius of three hundred meters, rapidly corroding the rocks and soil, forming its unique ’miasmic soil’."

"Truly unexpected, I didn’t think a ’Scorpion Demon Human’ would still be alive here."

"This lineage, born in the Near Ancient Era, Second Epoch."

"Although it only survived for one epoch, they did not go extinct due to weakness but because they were too extreme—fond of killing their own kind, essentially fighting themselves to extinction..."

Ye Aobai’s eyes gleamed with astonishment, and his surging fighting spirit was hard to restrain:

"This king is tempted."

"If it were transformed by my power into ’Scorpion Skull’ or ’Human Skull,’ its combat power would definitely grow even further!"

"Hahaha, the bloodline of the Scorpion Demon Human is unique; you force a grotesque mutation on it, have you asked for its opinion?"

Ye Buchun guffawed wildly, the chains in his hands jangling:

"Better leave it to me to nurture!"

"I love fierce Fond Spirits the most. Isn’t it wonderful that they kill their own kind? As long as they can become the ultimate victor, those fallen kin will not have sacrificed in vain."

"Twilight Nether Soil, Hell’s Barren Cemetery, they will witness the rise of their race in the form of the deceased!"

"Thinking back to the end of the Ancient Cosmos, the ancestor of my Ye Clan was just so!"

"The Scorpion Demon Human was merely a temporary failure; since there is still a remnant lineage, there is still a chance to start anew!"

With that, there was nothing else in Ye Buchun’s eyes, as his Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits ’Black Shark King,’ ’Violent Lizard Dragon,’ ’Violent Jumping Rat,’ charged the Scorpion Demon Human from three directions.

"Compete with this king, and be careful not to lose your head."

Ye Aobai’s finger pointed, Blood Skull, Rot Skull, Rock Skull, and from six eye sockets, six beams of light shot out straight.

"&￥#@%!"

The Scorpion Demon Human, being hunted, evidently possessed a certain degree of intelligence.

Yet, its racial language was too obscure, and not a single person present could understand it.
