The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 634 - 270: A Reckless Tune, Gift to a Bosom Friend_3

As the lightning symbol at her brow glowed brighter and brighter, her coercive force grew heavier. With a flick of her thought, dozens of Sand Dragon Scrolls flew out in succession. She summoned them over ten times, without feeling any strain.

Soon, the battlefield was filled with swirling tornadoes.

Some of the demon dragons, provoked further, directed their fury towards the closest enemy demon dragons, descending into more intense combat.

"Hahaha, seems like the little one’s Thunderbolt Eye Drops aren’t as exciting as this!"

Goose Immortal appeared spirited. Initially, he was beaten savagely by the leader of the crow demon dragons. Now, however, he was even able to retaliate a few times, forcing the opponent to dodge his fierce attack.

The instigator of all this, the Heavenly Zither Thunder Demon, Absolute String, still immersed himself in his piano music.

His piece —’Reckless’ — was as boundlessly arrogant as its name suggested.

Raising, chopping, smearing, picking, prying, hitting, plucking, rotating, pulling, piercing... His ten fingers transformed into afterimages, with his piano playing as pressing wood, everywhere was fierce, every sound was real.

His slender arms sometimes carried a mountain, sometimes pushed running water. His absolute relaxation mentally made the piano sound more and more full-bodied.

Even on the brows of Ye Hanjun and Ye Liuying, there were accompanying lightning symbols.

They were shuttling in the darkness, with their speed visibly increasing.

Their inward desire for battle and desire to win were visibly strengthened.

Wings sprint by the lake and brandish freely, while blade tips demonstrate flamboyant beheading skills. Demonic Qi stirs the heart to aim high; blood sprays wildly as the heart becomes wild.

In one word — refreshing!

Despite the large number of enemies, Ye Hanjun and Ye Liuying gradually shifted from a cautious and suspicious state to a stage of acting freely.

This didn’t mean any flaws appeared in their cooperation; nor did it imply a stronger killing intent. They would not stop until they killed the demon dragons and took the demon lotus.

On the contrary, their fighting became even more effortless.

It felt as though a voice in their hearts was constantly reminding them that they could easily handle such a small scene.

Whether it was the crow demon dragons in squads, or the sinister and cunning Yin Wind Demon Dragon, or the Corpse Demon Dragon whose head was still hopping around after being cut off, killing them all was just a matter of time.

...

After an hour of killings, hundreds of demon dragons have died.

The badly injured Goose Immortal, with the help of GuaGua’s aid, had most of his injuries healed.

He danced to the piano music again, showing the momentum of a bird piercing the sky with its powerful wings.

The equally injured leader of the crow demon dragons, having been fighting with other tribes for a long time, could no longer support himself.

But it refused to flee. It rushed to the Purple-Gold Demon Lotus in Demon Lake time and again, intending to harvest the spiritual medicine and escape.

"Ah! Ahh!!"

It bypassed Goose Immortal, broke through Huazhu’s whirlwind, and bit at the purple-gold Demon Lotus petal that was over five meters in diameter.

Goose Immortal chased after it, hovered momentarily, then ascended at an even faster speed.

"Whump!!"

A tremendously large Bream Demon Dragon King leaped into the air.

The crow demon dragon leader, unable to change the course of its dive, together with the Purple-Gold Demon Lotus, was swallowed by the enlarged Bream Demon Dragon King in one gulp.

"Plop!"

The Bream Demon Dragon King disappeared. Its huge fins waved twice and it gradually sank back to the bottom of the lake.

Ye Hanjun took a deep breath, observed for a few seconds, couldn’t detect it, and then chose to continue fighting.

However, the treasure they had been fighting for was seized by a sky-earth level demon dragon, leading to the death of their leader. The Crow Demon Dragon, still possession of its sense, chose to withdraw from the battlefield under the lead of its deputy leader.

The remaining Yin Wind Demon Dragons also escaped, leaving behind only the Corpse Demon Dragons that knew not of intelligence, continuing their bloody battle.

...

"Boom!"

By the time the last Corpse Demon Dragon’s corpse core shattered to pieces, its vital life force was thoroughly extinguished.

In a corner of the Demon Lake, a river of blood and scattered corpses lay all around.

The melody of the Absolute String began to gradually die out. The illusion, seemingly unsatisfied, returned to the body of the zither. The bloody eye on the forehead of the zither, half-closed, seemed to be still enjoying the lingering sound.

"Slaughter!"

Ye Hanjun began to clean up the battlefield.

The bloodshed here was too heavy. While other demon dragons dared not approach during the fight, it did not mean they would stay away after the battle ended.

Ye Liuying also lightly moved about, only looking for demon dragons of the biggest size and highest rank.

The Corpse Demon Dragons didn’t have much value, but the Yin Wind Demon Dragons had the heart of the Wind Dragons within them. The feathers and horns of the Crow Demon Dragon were decent spiritual materials. Collecting some more could only be of help.

"Ahhhhh---"

The calm only lasted ten minutes before small, sensitive types of dragons came to scavenge one after another.

With ready-made corpses all around, they risked life and death for a few bites. The Life Wheel Level demon dragons might even get a chance to advance to the Annihilation rank. As for those already at the Annihilation level, they could feast to their full, relishing the oily taste on their lips.

"Let’s go, time to retreat."

Ye Hanjun called out and Ye Liuying spread out his Wings of Night, the two of them quickly withdrawing.

They stayed away from the Demon Lake for a while, found a cave, took turns between standing guard and taking a light sleep. After one rotation of rest, they slightly recovered their state.

Once they had fully recuperated and were ready to explore Demon Lake again in search of Illusory Demon Dragons, an unusual piercing shriek caught their attention.

"Enemies on a narrow road, it’s them again."

Ye Liuying twirled the dragon bone knife in his hand, a radiant smile slowly blooming on his face.

Being fought right now were a bunch of Mysterious Blue Demon Dragons, against a Cavity Thorned Xuan Fish covered in spikes.

On the shore, there was also a Shadow Fire Skeleton conjuring up a fire-style skill, waiting for the opportunity for a one-shot kill.

"This time, we’re the hunters."

Ye Liuying flapped his wings, slowly disappearing into the dark depths.

Ye Hanjun followed suit but he additionally opened his Darkest Demon Eye, making his merging into the darkness smoother.

Although they only spied from afar and did not see any figures for the time being,

Since the Cavity Thorned Xuan Fish was Ye Min’s Contracted Spirit and Shadow Fire Skeleton was Ye Hu’s Contracted Spirit, they both must be close by, impossible to be too far away.

In the years Ye Liuying has had his territory, they have been constantly harassed by them, to the point of being thoroughly annoyed.

The Contracted Spirits they had signed during the trials, although killed by Ye Xueman, these two were the biggest culprits in fueling the fire. If there is a chance to punish them, such an opportunity absolutely cannot be missed.

"Ye Min, be careful, it seems that a great battle has erupted in this vicinity. The smell of blood is very strong."

"What’s there to be afraid of? Fortune favors the brave."

"Did you see the Mysterious Blue Demon Dragon that’s being heavily escorted and protected? It’s pregnant. As long as we cut open its stomach, we can obtain the dragon seeds. Then, my Cavity Thorned Xuan Fish can accumulate life energy. When I break through the 6th Rank, there’s a chance that, by leveraging the accumulated dragon veins, it can ascend and evolve into a Cavity Thorned Dragon Fish."
