The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 783 - 320: Yuezun_2

"I dare not make too many promises, but within my abilities, I will do my utmost to ensure proper settlement," assured the junior.

"Much appreciated."

The Chimera let out a soothing sigh:

"The Ye Clan’s kindness to me will be eternally etched in my heart until death."

"I pray for the Ye Clan’s everlasting prosperity, and should there be an afterlife, with my fervent blood, I wish to become the Holy Spirit of the Ye Clan, protecting the tribe for tens of thousands of years without decay."

"Boom—"

The Chimera’s remains, as if losing their spiritual essence, could no longer sustain the skeleton to float on the blood pool.

It collapsed thunderously, and before its soul faded, its last lingering words echoed in Ye Hanjun’s mind:

"Young man of the Night Family, the essence remaining within my carcass has been fed to my offspring over the years, barely one in a hundred survives."

"However, the residual energy of this blood pool can still greatly benefit you at your current level."

"Enter the pool, soak in it, it can help your Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits ascend further in rank."

"As for the other Supreme Saint’s ancestral veins, those are tests set up by the Asura King, beyond my control. Perhaps after ten thousand years when the great tomb reopens, they will wake one after another, serving as a foundation to be passed down to generations of the Yushi Clan..."

The Chimera’s soul flickered out.

The roaring blood pool gradually returned to a state as tranquil as a mirror.

Ye Hanjun glanced at the three eggs, from which fresh life was already emanating.

It wouldn’t be long before the creature inside would break its chains and embark on its own spectacular bestial life.

"That’s not right, I’ve also heard of the Chimera Clan. As far as I am aware, this clan has never been extinct, no?"

Goose Immortal, who had remained quiet until now, expressed doubt after confirming the extinction of the Chimera’s holy soul:

"If they come from a single lineage, associating with the Chimera Clan might bring the Fighting Dragon Clan and that Yuezun into the picture; they could see us as thorns in their side, potentially dragging us into trouble."

"If it’s not a single transmission, then this hidden danger is quite unpredictable; who still remembers a holy beast from a hundred thousand years ago? Even the Titan War God has perished, and if another Savage Clan’s king were to appear, it wouldn’t make any difference, would it?"

"You’re right; that’s not an absolute danger," Ye Hanjun replied.

"The Chimera Clan originates from the Ancient Era, crossed over into the Near Ancient Era, and there are individuals active in the New Era."

"But their bloodlines are dispersed, lacking a strong sense of racial belonging."

"If uneventful, individuals from this clan practically never interact from cradle to grave."

"Then it’s no problem at all, let’s raise it, the holy offspring must be taught from a young age."

The Goose Immortal, flapping its wings, landed at the edge of the blood pool and peeked inside:

"Isn’t this a divine gift from heaven? The plasma refined from dissolving the holy corpse, the chance for me to ascend to Great Completion between heaven and earth, might just lie here."

"You soak, be careful. If you rush for quick results, you’ll end up with an inferior outcome," Ye Hanjun warned.

"Don’t worry, this Immortal wanders outside Ghost Gate every day; with such a profound foundation, I can withstand various forms of body tempering."

Goose Immortal dove into the blood pool without concern, then suddenly inhaled sharply, grimacing and screeching:

"Hiss, there’s still a trace of sinister aura lingering from the fall of the holy beast, piercing into the flesh as if being impaled by myriad blades."

"Huazhu, don’t imitate me. It’s best you apply a small amount of plasma on your skin, gently adapt to it, then decide whether to continue or not."

"Alright, I got it."

Huazhu trusted Goose Immortal’s judgment, her contemplative gaze revealing a hint of caution.

"I don’t like the essence of a grand holy beast’s flesh and blood, no soaking for me," declared GuaGua.

Operating the Ninth Layer Lotus Platform, GuaGua floated above the blood pool, looking left and right before scooting away without a hint of attachment:

"I will wait by the eggs, anticipating the birth of Xiaoqi!"

"Once it’s born, I’ll be its senior and teach it the language of the Human Race and various strange and ancient knowledge. There’s much homework to prepare!"

As it spoke, the little one turned into a small knife and began chiseling away at a wall, leaving behind a series of crooked Human Race characters.

"Big tadpole, you better not compete with me for this!"

"Giving a creature fish is not as good as teaching it how to fish!"

"I haven’t played the role of a teacher yet; it’s time to show my true skills!"

Ye Hanjun could not help but smile, his tone indulging:

"Then I’ll be at ease, won’t I? Why would I compete with you?"

"You prepare well. Once the Chimera is born, you’ll be the little teacher, responsible for its growth."

"No problem!"

The little knife that the youngster had become was raised high, its spirit vibrantly animated.

"You all seem to have a lot of free time on your hands..."

Upon releasing her Dominant State, Aegifura immediately checked herself in a mirror.

After confirming that her face bore no wounds, she breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and disdained the blood pool:

"The Holy Beast Blood Pool offers me no significant benefit," she proclaimed.

"But this little bird, on the verge of death, would better serve being refined by me for ascending to Great Completion with ease."

Aegifura’s gaze settled on the mangled body of the Nightmare Falcon.

The last time she showed such covetous eyes, Ye Hanjun vaguely recalled, was in the Demon Cave when the Ape King mentioned how the Youth Tree could sustain everlasting youth. She went from disinterest to an extraordinary desire in an instant.

"The Nightmare Falcon offers significant benefits to your growth?"

"Of course!" Aegifura rolled her eyes, "Its power to control dreams is the Illusion System’s Supreme Saint’s ancestral vein!"

"If I could consume it, my status would advance, and my demeanor would surely become more ethereal!"
