Chapter 92: The Power of the Magic Ring Unleashed, Without Warning
Dark Bone Dragons, level four dark-attribute spirit beasts, inherently evil, with a preference for living in groups. Originally dwelling on Demon Island at the southernmost tip of the Profound Cyan Continent, they were discovered by Mo Yue by chance and brought back to the Blood Sect using Canghen Crystal, kept at the darkest depths of Luoji Mountain. Though not individually powerful, when gathered, their destructive force is astonishing. Remembering the time when nearly clashing head-on with the forces of Demon Island, Mo Yue felt a lingering fear.
"Sect Leader, it seems the Dark Bone Dragons have been startled by something, otherwise, they wouldn't make such sounds."
Ghost Howl lowered his head and said.
"It's not fright, it's a summoning."
Mo Yue's jade-like face bore a hint of contemplation, "Haven't you noticed, after that young man emitted that dark crimson aura, the entire ominous aura of Luoji Mountain was stirred up? Not just the bloody aura, but even the dark-attributed Bone Dragons were disturbed."
Ghost Howl's heart was astonished, and he looked at Su Chen with an added degree of fear. The dark Bone Dragons at the bottom of Luoji Mountain numbered in the hundreds, with some as strong as level five or even level nine. Their overall power was enough to rival a Beast Demon-level Beast Cultivator. Normally, they would either consume the Beast Cultivators slain by Mo Yue or obey her summoning, devoid of any other consciousness. Even if Bai Ya and I teamed up, it was uncertain they would submit.
But this slumbering boy can make these emotionless Bone Dragons resonate, what is going on?
"Ghost Howl, go and check what's happening. I'll wait for you here."
Mo Yue suddenly instructed; Ghost Howl nodded immediately and turned to leave. "Additionally, see if that Witch Demon has awoken?"
Ghost Howl's footsteps paused, a slight fear appeared on his face.
The Dark Witch Demon—far more terrifying than Bone Dragons by several tens of times. The weakest infant Dark Witch Demons are at least level nine dark blood dual-attribute spirit beasts, not to mention those in their growth or peak stages. And it's said that the strongest Dark Witch Demon King is several times stronger than the Sect Leader's level eight spirit beast companion!
What a terrifying spirit beast, perhaps only a Beast Demon or Beast God-level expert could possibly tame it?
Thinking this, Ghost Howl couldn't help but quicken his pace, flying like a streak of blood towards the deepest part of Luoji Mountain.
"You little guy, you've really given me many surprises."
Mo Yue gently caressed Su Chen's face, her face carrying a slightly intoxicating blush. She leaned forward slightly, revealing a dazzling expanse of snow-white before her chest.
Su Chen's indomitable will, his transformation after the torturous Bone-Devouring Heart-Eating Ants, and the extremely bizarre dark red aura all startled this ruthless Sect Leader of the Blood Sect.
Though unable for the moment to see through the mysterious power within Su Chen, Mo Yue had already decided to have Su Chen fulfill her revenge against the Carefree Sect and the righteous factions…
Su Chen slightly opened his eyes, arduously straightening up to see Mo Yue still lost in thought before him.
In her quietness, Mo Yue's beauty was breathtakingly stunning. Her perfect figure, exquisite face, and mysterious, captivating aura all made Su Chen's heart race.
It's a pity that such a heavenly beauty is the leader of the world's number one evil sect. He lamented inwardly.
"What are you looking at, little rascal?"
Mo Yue's dazed face suddenly broke into an enchanting smile, startling Su Chen, who quickly recoiled.
"Hehe, all heart and no courage, even a child like you behaves like this."
Mo Yue seemed to mutter to herself, her face showing a recollective look, "Back then, that fool was like this too, clearly could embrace me, yet could never open his arms..."
Just as Su Chen was about to ask who she was referring to, he saw Mo Yue's expression change suddenly.
"Not good, someone's coming!"
She hastily pulled Su Chen up and swept out of the room like the wind, the flickering Beast Oil Lamp snuffed out by the cold breeze with a whoosh.
At the very bottom of Luoji Mountain, in the abyss of darkness, winds howled from all directions, the aura of death stretching hundreds of meters around.
Ghost Howl furrowed his brow, looking at the massive shadow like a night canvas before him, speechless for a long time.
This is the Dark Witch Demon. With a humanoid shape, shrouded entirely in a black robe, its features concealed, wielding a black scythe. Normally, a Dark Witch Demon would exhibit nothing but silence, devoid of any emotional fluctuation. Yet the mid-level eighth-grade Dark Witch Demon before Ghost Howl was clearly in an exceedingly sensitive state.
Its dark aura was continuously spreading outward. It was like clusters of black mist, endlessly expanding, seemingly in response to something. The dark aura represents the emotions of the Dark Witch Demon. It was searching.
"Ghost Howl, why are you still dumbfounded?"
Mo Yue's voice suddenly came, startling Ghost Howl from his daze.
With a pale face, he said, "Sect Leader, the Dark Witch Demon seems to be agitated too, look..."
Mo Yue cast her gaze on her spirit beast companion. This Dark Witch Demon was captured by her in the Forest of Death; after years of both sternness and leniency, it had only agreed to enter into a blood contract with her. A blood contract, a soul magic formation that could only be established after reaching beast soul level, acts as a bridge between a Beast Cultivator and their spirit beast companion. With the constraints of a blood contract, no matter how formidable a spirit beast, it must obey its master's orders.
Yet, why was the Dark Witch Demon communicating its aura to someone other than herself?
She couldn't help but look at Su Chen, who was as shocked as ever behind her, with a faint red glint passing through her eyes.
