The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 687 - 288: Human-faced Cockroach_2

"Clan of Strange Jades brother, it’s your turn now!"

"No need for your reminder!"

The Rakshasa Celestial Body ascended the battle platform in an extremely shocking manner, feet standing on the ground, eyes glaring into the void, carrying innate supreme majesty.

Mist Head became furious, and gray-white streams of air transformed into two arrows, sprinting forth, aiming directly for the head of the Celestial Body.

At that moment, Golden Hoop Rakshasa chanted incantations, endlessly casting spells that fell upon the Ancient Bell Rakshasa.

Taking advantage of the situation, Ancient Bell Rakshasa propped up the Ancient Bell Wall. With a resonating clang, the wall cracked, but the two approaching fog arrows were also significantly weakened, leaving behind only a fraction of their might, no longer fatal.

...

"This is not a battle between equals, the gap is too wide..."

Ye Hanjun withdrew his gaze, dispelling stray thoughts, focusing on the present.

The enemies of the two Young Emperors were already at the Unlimited Foetus stage.

And he—being hunted down by a group of Heaven and Earth Stage creatures, with his clothes barely covering him, hardly looked free and at ease.

"Where’s Ye Yin, and where is he now?"

After fleeing for a long time, employing the strategy of avoidance rather than fighting, Ye Hanjun managed to cling to life.

At this time, even Ye Buyi, who could summon hordes of Undead Servants, was pounced upon by a Zombie Dog and thus met his defeat.

Ye Hanjun, who had been quietly observing his clansmen’s performance, had confirmed many of the sealed clansmen’s authorities and abilities, but still had not seen any sign of Ye Yin.

"He’s over there..."

His arm bitten by a Zombie Dog, but using the Medicine Beast’s Blood to block the spread of the virus, Ye Liuying escaped from the beast horde and pointed outside the Star Battle Platform, with a hint of oddity in his voice:

"He was originally hiding behind a group of people, not so easy for Zombie Dogs to hunt, it seemed quite safe."

"But the Mist Head in the sky, so far away, should not have affected the ground with its aftermath."

"Yet he got hit again, his entire face ashen as rock, if not for the faint rise and fall of his chest, one might suspect he had suffocated to death..."

"That unlucky?"

Ye Hanjun’s right eyelid twitched twice, he pressed on with his questions:

"Did you see his Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits?"

"It looked like a cockroach..."

Ye Liuying was uncertain, "I caught a glimpse in haste, if I’m not mistaken, it should be the ’Human-Faced Cockroach’."

"That so-called ’Indestructible Cockroach’ among the Insect Ability spirits?"

This time, Ye Hanjun’s expression took on an odd turn as he murmured:

"Does this mean he has a full understanding of his own fortunes, fearing to harm his Contracted Spirits, so he chose a species with strong survival instincts to contract with?"

"And the other one? Also of the same type?"

"No."

Ye Liuying shook his head, hesitating slightly in his tone:

"It seems like he contracted with two Human-Faced Cockroaches... one male and one female, their relationship very intimate..."

"?"

Ye Hanjun’s mouth hung slightly open, as numerous guesses flashed through his mind.

Generally, Patrons would choose different species to suit their authority.

Choosing the same species isn’t impossible, but it would certainly lower the combat effectiveness under different threats.

But Ye Yin—seemed to have not considered how to battle at all?

Human-Faced Cockroaches, this kind of insect, loathed in appearance, are actually quite mild and not easily provoked into rage.

They may seem filthy, but in reality, they keep thoroughly clean, each limb glistening like new, and they do not carry dangerous viruses.

"This person is too mysterious."

Ye Liuying nodded towards the area beyond the Star Battle Platform:

"We can’t see through him just by observation, not asking him directly."

"Even if we asked him now, I’m afraid we wouldn’t get much out of it."

Ye Hanjun had his own thoughts, "Without reaching the 6th Rank, without showing the special and rare nature of a Protector, how can we exchange sincerity for sincerity, and have him tell us the true abilities corresponding to our authority?"

"So?" inquired Ye Liuying, glancing sideways.

"First, we elevate our rank."

Ye Hanjun dodged a paw, "Once everyone evolves, we will visit him, then we will have convincing power."

"Let’s do that then."

Ye Liuying nodded, then suddenly his complexion changed, and with a fierce movement, he lowered his head.

"Whoosh!"

A Zombie Dog leaped over his head, its rotting belly and murky blood dripping down.

"The Young Kings who joined the skirmish from the start... many have been injured..."

"Only Ye Yunruo, Ye Buchun, Ye Lingwu, and those close to the Young Emperor rank among the sealed, they are the main force of the skirmish..."

"The surviving Zombie Dogs... are there a hundred left?"

Ye Hanjun looked around, seeing fewer and fewer who could persist, apart from him and Liuying, the 5th Rank clansmen were scarce.

"After all, it’s an enclosed area, even if one tries to escape, there will still be limitations."

Ye Liuying glanced at his wings with a fright, "If I didn’t have these Wings of Night, I would’ve been carried out sideways long ago, how could I have lasted until now."

"Keep your distance from me, I’m about to make a scene."

Ye Hanjun whispered softly:

"Those sealed clansmen, who have heard the stories but never seen my full splendor..."

"And Ye Yin... I don’t know if he’s awake now, but showing the value of oneself... is probably an effective way to communicate."

"I get it."

Ye Liuying swooped down with a whoosh, slipping into the shadow of a Zombie Dog corpse, silently lying in wait.

"Absolute String, will you play or shall I?"

Ye Hanjun took the Guqin from his back, rubbing the head of the zither, a blood eye slowly opening.

"I’ll play, unless you use your last-ditch move, you won’t reach the ’Sound of Perfection.’"

"You play, subduing the Heaven and Earth Small Achievement will be easier for you than for me."

"Hahaha, then I shall!"
