The unknown spirit slowly opened its eyes. The pitch-black pupils lacked any focus, the dilated irises expressionless. Brong's heart skipped a beat as he saw this scene. The spirit clearly seemed devoid of consciousness; it must have suffered a severe blow to have lost all emotions.
"Hahaha! Heaven helps me!" Brong's eyes narrowed as he looked at Bexia, filled with a murderous intent. Seizing the opportunity while the spirit was still not fully awake, he planned to make a contract. He would kill Bexia immediately, leaving only himself as the sole human in the vicinity. No matter what happened next, as the only living being remaining, the spirit would inevitably come into a contract with him.
"Act quickly, or uncertainty will arise after the spirit fully awakens and makes a decision!" Brong thought to himself. Suddenly, a burst of power erupted beneath his feet, propelling him like a bullet towards Bexia. His palm exuded a strong and terrifying aura, determined to fatally strike Bexia and eliminate any future troubles.
Bexia, however, was drawn in by the spirit's gaze and didn't notice Brong's ambush. Even when Christine finally spoke up to warn him, Brong was already in front of him. His claw-like hand fiercely grabbed towards Bexia's head. If he succeeded, Bexia would undoubtedly meet a gruesome end.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The terrifying aura exploded, but it was stopped by a thin barrier of light. Feeling the sturdy defense emanating from Bexia, it was like punching a steel alloy for an ordinary person. Brong's face turned pale at the sensation.
"This is a monarch-level defense... Ah!" Before Brong could finish speaking, a silvery light shot out from Bexia's body, directly hitting Brong's forehead. Instantly, his face turned white, and blood spewed out of his mouth in large amounts. The other six orifices also had blood, flowing like a stream.
Brong screamed in pain and stumbled back a few steps, clutching his head. Without the protection of runes, he was hit by Christine's soul impact, a devastating blow for him. He collapsed onto the ground after a few convulsions and became still, his life or death uncertain.
Buzzing sounds filled the air as the spirit in the sky finally fully awakened. A faint glimmer flashed in its dim eyes, and a powerful spiritual force swept out, undetectable by anyone below the monarch level. The speed was unbelievable, and the range covered the entire Godsend Continent, including the Akmuther Worm and a distant gorilla. They both trembled with profound fear.
The spiritual force appeared and disappeared in an instant, as fast as a beam of light. However, Bexia felt that he had been locked onto. The spirit in the sky slowly descended before him, and the previously red flower transformed into a pair of semi-transparent bodies floating behind her. A complex formation appeared between the two of them, restraining Bexia's movements. Even his eyelids couldn't blink.
"Bloodline contract!" The lips of the young spirit girl slightly parted, and as her voice fell, a dazzling blood light burst forth from the formation. The intricate patterns seemed to come alive, giving off the sensation of pulsating blood vessels.
"Hiss!" Bexia suddenly gasped in cold air as a piercing pain spread throughout his body. Countless snowflakes seeped out of his pores, but instead of falling, they hovered in the air. The same situation happened to the spirit girl in front of him, and their blood floated and gradually merged together.
The process lasted for about three or four minutes. When a fist-sized mass of blood completely mixed together, it instantly transformed into countless tiny blood beads that penetrated into the skin of the girl in front of me. Bexia suddenly felt a peculiar sensation rising in her heart, looking at the inexplicable affection in the eyes of the holy spirit girl.
The covenant ceremony ended with the disappearance of the magic circle. A glimmer of light flashed in the lifeless pupils of the holy spirit girl, and then her body seemed to disintegrate into countless particles of light. In the end, what appeared in Bexia's vision was a girl who had shrunk several times and was only the size of his palm. Before he had time to react, the alluring flower that was originally floating behind the holy spirit girl enveloped her and fell thunderously on his chest, imprinting a floral pattern on it. At the same time, his mind also flashed some special information.
"Master, the ghost clan member is gone!" Christine's voice suddenly sounded with suspicion. Bexia looked down and indeed, Borong had disappeared at some point.
"He can't escape!" There were remnants of blood on the ground, showing that Borong had fled while heavily injured. So, the trace was obvious.
"The warship is about to enter the self-destruct program. Countdown begins, 59...58..."
Suddenly, a mechanical voice that couldn't determine the gender rang out. Bexia was taken aback but didn't pay too much attention to it. The Thousand-Change Robe on his body gave him great confidence.
Bexia ignored the holy spirit girl who had made a covenant with him because he already knew the content of the covenant in his mind. Such an obviously non-threatening thing was temporarily put aside, and capturing Borong was the priority.
However, just as Bexia was following the blood trail to find Borong, he was hobbling up a small warship. Sensing the footsteps behind him, he immediately turned around to look at Bexia, and without hesitation, picked up the piercing cannon used by the warship guards, which has an attack power comparable to a champion.
"Die!" Borong's eyes were crazed as he pressed the button towards Bexia. The thigh-sized shell, with a long flame tail, shot towards Bexia. Borong immediately threw away the cannon barrel and leaped vigorously into the driver's cabin of the warship. At this time, the mechanical voice of the countdown had only ten seconds left!
"Damn you!" Bexia's figure suddenly appeared above him and grabbed his collar just as he was about to log in. Naturally, Borong resisted because at this moment, the warship had entered the final countdown.
"5...4..."
"Damn it, the warship is going to explode. Even a monarch-level can't withstand it. Do you want to die here?" Borong felt the countdown to death and immediately shouted.
Even a monarch can't withstand it!
Bexia was taken aback. At this moment, Borong heard the number "3", and he didn't know where he got the strength from. He immediately pulled Bexia into the driver's cabin and fiercely pressed the button of this small jump device.
"Space jump initiated!"
"3...2..."x2
The jump device and the warship's self-destruct countdown coincided mysteriously. When the final "1" fell, the entire warship exploded instantly. The convoluted surge of immense energy turned everything around it into a flat ground. A large number of Arkworms turned to ashes in an instant, and many champions were also engulfed within, without any resistance, completely disappearing without a trace.
