The Sunflower Emperor doesn’t need to advance temporarily, so contracting with it doesn’t carry psychological burden and won’t hinder the Sunflower Emperor’s future. And the Space Pelican is a precious pet beast with spatial attributes, theoretically, Ye Bai should contract with it first. However, it possesses an ancient mirror that can conceal its body aura, thus won’t be discovered for now. Finally, the fourth contract position fell to the Sunflower Emperor. Ye Bai feared the Sunflower Emperor would be disappointed again, as for the Space Pelican, it should be understanding. Big Gray probably requires Ye Bai to break through Tier One to have a chance. "Sunflower Emperor, let’s sign the contract." The Sunflower Emperor’s soul power surged, a contract appeared as Ye Bai’s blood dripped onto the Sunflower Emperor. Its body shimmered with radiant light. And the technique Ye Bai inherited from the Sunflower Emperor was Holy Light Shining. Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm—Steel Armor. Little Charcoal Dog—Rapid Run. True Dragon Spirit—Dragon Roar. Sunflower Emperor—Holy Light Shining. None of these are combat skills. He silently placed his hand on his head. According to this logic, if he contracted the Space Pelican, the skill gained from it would likely also be supportive. Currently, with 50 days until the high school exam, Ye Bai plans to thoroughly go through the botany books left by his grandmother. To increase his knowledge reserve. Skills like Unforgettable, for Ye Bai to leverage this ability, require him to read large amounts of books. His ultimate goal is, when Ye Bai thinks of a search term, numerous contents regarding the term will surface in his mind. Big data retrieval is the best use of the Unforgettable talent. The sky suddenly turned dark as ink, and drizzle fell from above. Streaks of golden thunder light slashed down, heavily landing in the yard. This year’s rain is particularly abundant. Ye Bai looked out the window and sighed deeply. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦·𝘯𝘦𝘵 Hopefully, nothing will happen recently. He glanced at the recent intelligence reports. [1. It is said that an ancient ancestral house in Jiaying City will randomly appear on rainy nights, inside this ancient house is an ancient sacrificial spirit, being used by the evil Evangelical Association with the power of the Tomb Whip transformed into a bloodthirsty creature, in the ancient ancestral house, the sacrificial spirit has an absolute domain control, light skills are its nemesis.] [2. There are a total of two Tomb Whips, which are important artifacts of the Necromancer, one of the leaders of the Evangelical Association. They can resurrect the dead and possess the power to curse the living. One whip named Departure allows the undead to return to hell, and the other, Return, can temporarily bring the deceased back to life.] [3. The Tomb Whip in Celestial Harmony City has already started resurrecting the undead. They return from hell, with extremely strong attack power. Those killed by the undead will also continue to resurrect under the influence of the Tomb Whip, becoming part of the Necromancy Legion.] [4. In the Imperial Capital Research Institute theft case, a main suspect fled into a secret realm and, before dying, placed the stolen intelligent brain core on a towering tree within the realm, which bears the marks of a hexagram.] [5. Summoning the Demon God can ignore space shielding, needing only blood to draw the summoning ceremony and prepare the offerings.] After seeing these five intelligence reports, Ye Bai gritted his teeth, the first report is so obvious. Could it be that he’ll encounter the ancient ancestral house? In this case, he must immediately prepare food and clean water. As for the situation in Celestial Harmony City, Ye Bai had reported it long ago, but why has nothing happened for so long? Ye Bai plans to continue observing, if nothing changes, he’ll send an email to further urge Chairman Zhang. Jiaying City Pet Beast Union. Chairman Wang paced on the floor with his hands behind his back. Inspector Fang Ritu, one of the inspectors, disappeared in Jiaying City. Old Wang cannot bear this blame. Now the higher-ups have asked Chairman Wang to deploy search members to find Fang Ritu’s whereabouts. "Why are more and more things happening lately?" "I feel like there’s going to be a change in the heavens." Old Wang murmured, looking out the window. When the weather cleared the next day, Ye Bai went to Five Finger Stone to investigate Purple Jade Mushroom. According to intelligence, there is a Purple Jade Mushroom production area near Five Finger Stone. Shark Hunter was scouting around, lazily lying in a flower blooming grassland. Ever since following Ye Bai, eating well and drinking well, her belly grew fatter in a blink. Space Pelican brought Ye Bai the Divine Blood Stone. The whole Divine Blood Stone was the size of a basketball, radiating a bloody scent. Ye Bai casually placed the Divine Blood Stone into the Pet Beast Space. At this moment, Ye Bai heard rustling sounds. And Shark Hunter showed a frightening expression. She lay on the ground, and Ye Bai also felt surrounded by thick gray fog. The ground continued to shake. And Shark Hunter placed her ear on the ground, observing the situation. At this point, her face suddenly changed. "Not good, we are surrounded by a large number of exotic beasts." "Judging by the crawling sound, they must be snake-like beasts." "Ye Bai, be careful, find a safe place to hide." "The visitors are not friendly." At this moment, the ground suddenly cracked open. Tier Four Iron Armor Barbaric Snakes appeared one after another. Its body was cloaked in steel armor, with a unicorn horn shaped like a blade on its head. The whole body was black iron in color, and when it opened its mouth, one could see the red flickering tongue of the Iron Armor Barbaric Snake. Its back was filled with spikes. [Name: Iron Armor Barbaric Snake] [Attribute: Gold/Poison] [Trait: Solid: Passively enhances one’s own defense capabilities.] [Level: Tier Four, Level One] [Mastered Skills: Highly Poisonous Fang (Skilled): Inject venom into its sharp two fangs to attack the opponent; the venom is corrosive, and if it hits the opponent, the opponent will enter a poisoned state in a short time. Poison Needle (Skilled): Emits purple poison needles from the mouth to attack the opponent, causing the opponent to instantly enter a poisoned state. Great Snake’s Suppression (Skilled): Shoots a terrifying gaze, the opponent will be 100% hit, falling into a state of fearfulness. Super Impact (Skilled): Uses the unicorn horn to ram into the opponent.] [Evolutionary Path 1: Steel Armor Barbaric Snake, must devour large amounts of toxins and minerals to trigger.] [Rating: Specifically cultivated here by the Evangelical Association as Pet Beasts, they are guardians of the ancient Ancestral House.] Ye Bai squinted his eyes slightly after seeing the evaluation. Combining the intelligence he had seen earlier, he instantly understood that this was a trap specifically set for him. Even the information about the Purple Jade Mushroom was probably released by the Evangelical Association. But why the Evangelical Association went to such lengths remained a mystery. Ye Bai racked his brains but couldn’t think of an answer. Since the Evangelical Association’s people were specifically monitoring, he dared not release Big Gray for the time being. Ye Bai was very wary of the Necromancer of the Evangelical Association. Because this guy could contract with the dead spirits, he might be the one who captured Big Gray back then. If he rashly releases Big Gray, he might provoke this person, which would be a sure-death situation. Ye Bai glanced at his phone only to find that the Evangelical Association had set up a signal jammer here. "Damn it, I’ve encountered defensive gold-element beasts." "What are these Iron Armor Barbaric Snakes, is someone deliberately breeding them here?" Shark Hunter felt it was a bit tricky. She could dodge by herself, but with Ye Bai, she found it difficult to unleash her full strength. Shark Hunter summoned her Pet Beast, which looked like a Gun Shark, but was much larger, resembling a mortar cannon, aptly named Mortar Shark. At the same time, Shark Hunter also had two gun sharks shaped like pistols in her hands. Ye Bai understood Shark Hunter’s talent; she could summon all shark-shaped Pet Beasts. This included the Gun Shark clan. And Gun Sharks are a kind of equipment-type Exotic Beast. Shark Hunter jumped around the Iron Armor Barbaric Snakes. Bullets fiercely bombarded the Iron Armor Barbaric Snakes. The armor on the Iron Armor Barbaric Snakes had some dents, emitting trails of sparks. "Such hard armor, I refuse to believe I can’t break through your armor." Shark Hunter was instantly furious. She directly switched Shark Hunter’s bullets. "Ye Bai, run, find a safe place to hide immediately." As soon as Shark Hunter’s words fell, Ye Bai was already sitting on the Space Pelican’s back, flying towards the distance. At this time, Shark Hunter leaped into the air, and several Iron Armor Barbaric Snakes also jumped up directly. They opened their bloody mouths, biting towards Shark Hunter. The bullets fell into the Iron Armor Barbaric Snakes, with violent explosions sounding out. The Iron Armor Barbaric Snakes exploded entirely, like large shotguns, blasting out. Their armor was exceptionally tough, so the shrapnel pierced directly through the remaining Iron Armor Barbaric Snakes’ defenses. A dark shadow saw Ye Bai leaving and showed a faint, cold smile: "Ye Bai has already left; it’s time to start the action." "Hmph, dare to offend the Evangelical Association, we’ll make sure this is your end." "Fang Ritu has already been trapped inside by us, and locking up another one isn’t difficult." "Then, they will both be made into puppets by us, their souls harvested, becoming part of the sacrificial spirit." If Ye Bai saw this guy, he would find that this guy looked exactly like the Poison Dove Priest, only the Poison Dove Priest looked a bit younger. The Space Pelican flapped its wings, flying towards the distance, with some Iron Armor Barbaric Snakes chasing after. "Hurry up, Space Pelican, hurry up." Ye Bai urged the Space Pelican, several times almost getting bitten by the Iron Armor Barbaric Snakes on its leg, narrowly dodging each time. Sunflower Emperor shot numerous sunflower seeds from its petals. These sunflower seeds exploded upon impact with the Iron Armor Barbaric Snakes, emitting large clouds of black smoke. Using the smoke to obscure the vision. Sunflower Emperor threw down its clone. As long as these clones ran out of the Five Finger Stone’s location, they would send a message to Chairman Zhang using Ye Bai’s phone.
