Bai Bin's situation confird the doubt that had long lingered in Liu Bai's heart.
Regarding the existence of beast pets, Liu Bai had always harbored suspicion. Back when he fused Beast Souls, it had already given him a conjecture, a conjecture concerning Beast Soul Points. Since the essence souls of spiritual beasts could be enhanced, then could a real, living spiritual beast also be enhanced?
Unfortunately, after Jiu You appeared, things did not proceed as he had imagined. He had been unable to use Beast Soul Points to enhance or evolve her.
Originally, Liu Bai had thought that his system golden finger simply did not possess such a function, until now…
"Can you tell why Jiu You cannot use Beast Soul Points to enhance and evolve?"
For once, Liu Bai once again raised a question toward his golden finger.
If Jiu You could also use Beast Soul Points to enhance and evolve, why would they have taken such risks to co to the Divine Beast Plains in search of Undying Bird essence blood?
This ti, the system golden finger once again gave him an answer. It was very simple, only one sentence: She does not belong to you.
Just a few words, yet Liu Bai imdiately understood the system's aning.
Although he and Jiu You shared a bloodline link, it was the most equal kind of relationship. They were independent individuals without any subordinate bond. Therefore, under the system's judgnt, Liu Bai could not apply the system's abilities to Jiu You.
But Bai Bin was different. His life and death were completely controlled by Liu Bai. He had entirely lost his autonomy, so naturally the system's abilities could extend to him.
Of course, Bai Bin himself was unaware of this.
The corner of Liu Bai's lips curved slightly. Glancing at his Beast Soul Points that had already reached six digits, he directly invested twenty thousand Beast Soul Points into Bai Bin.
Bai Bin, who had just been pale from handing over his soul blood, suddenly felt a fla burning within his body. A powerful force from deep within his bloodline erupted. In an instant, the chill around him increased by seventy percent. His cultivation also rose directly from early Seventh-Grade to peak Seventh-Grade, even only a single step away from breaking into Eighth-Grade.
This sudden change left Chi Hongwu and the other mbers of the Phoenix Clan stunned. The mbers of the Heavenly Roc Clan and the Heavenly Crane Clan also widened their eyes in shock.
"Bai Bin, what happened? Why has your bloodline power increased so much?"
Chi Hongwu demanded loudly.
At this mont, whether in bloodline talent or cultivation, Bai Bin had already caught up to Bai Ming who had just fallen. This was absolutely not sothing he could accomplish on his own. Everything had happened too suddenly.
The only possible change was his acknowledgnt of Liu Bai as master.
But how could that be?
"Many thanks to Master for granting rebirth!"
In the depths of his soul, Bai Bin knew that his transformation was because of Liu Bai. At this mont, not only had his initial humiliation and fear disappeared, his heart was instead filled with fanatical worship toward Liu Bai, like a true zealot.
It was difficult to say that the system had no influence in this.
Hearing Bai Bin's words, everyone inside the grand array was stunned. Then the way they looked at Liu Bai beca strange.
"As expected, everything was orchestrated by this man."
But how Liu Bai could cause a divine beast's bloodline power to rise again within such a short ti remained a mystery in everyone's hearts.
Liu Bai paid no attention to that. His gaze turned toward the others once more as he said calmly, "You have already seen the benefits of acknowledging as master. I can guarantee that by becoming my beast slaves, even evolving into Super Divine Beasts in the future will not be impossible. So, who else is willing to submit to ?"
Silence filled the grand array. Many exchanged glances, yet no one stepped forward.
Liu Bai's gaze swept across them, but he had already lost the patience to continue waiting.
His objective had been verified. Whether these people were willing to accept his conditions no longer held much aning.
With that thought, Liu Bai's eyes gradually turned cold, killing intent undisguised within them.
"I am willing to serve you as my master!" Suddenly, a heavy voice rang out.
Everyone hurriedly looked over, only to discover that this ti the speaker was Zong Qingfeng from the Heavenly Roc Clan's team.
"Zong Qingfeng, what are you doing? As a mber of the Heavenly Roc Clan, you actually submit to a human. Have you forgotten the nurturing of our Heavenly Roc Clan?" shouted the genius from the Heavenly Roc Clan who had previously taken out the Roc Spirit Pearl.
"Hmph. A low grade bloodline is indeed a low grade bloodline!"
If Zong Qingfeng had still felt so struggle in his heart before, hearing that final sentence suddenly cald him completely.
No matter how outstanding his performance, no matter how far his talent and cultivation surpassed these Heavenly Roc Clan geniuses, in their eyes he was still that low grade bloodline mber of the Roc Clan.
Although his teacher had never looked down on him and had even given him this opportunity at the Divine Beast Plains to obtain inherited essence blood and elevate his bloodline level, the other Heavenly Roc Clan mbers had never truly regarded him as one of their own.
Thus, the guilt in his heart instantly dissipated.
Raising his head and looking directly at Liu Bai, Zong Qingfeng said, "I am willing to serve you as master, but I also hope you will keep your promise and elevate my bloodline level."
Liu Bai raised his brows, a trace of pleasant surprise flashing in his eyes.
He had not expected that his sudden idea would actually allow him to obtain a top genius.
This was far better than Bai Bin that useless fellow.
"I promise you," Liu Bai gave Zong Qingfeng another firm reply.
At this point, Zong Qingfeng had no more hesitation. He directly condensed a drop of soul blood from his glabella and handed it to Liu Bai.
Condensing soul blood caused considerable harm to a divine beast, especially to its divine soul. Thus, Zong Qingfeng beca weak, his face pale.
"You dare acknowledge a human as master. Zong Qingfeng, you deserve death!" The remaining five Heavenly Roc Clan mbers were enraged. One of them imdiately manipulated the Roc Spirit Pearl, intending to kill Zong Qingfeng while he was weakened.
This matter absolutely could not spread. Otherwise, if their Heavenly Roc Clan produced a traitor who had voluntarily defected to the enemy, they would beco the laughingstock of all divine beasts.
However, they clearly thought too much. Within this grand array, every move they made was under Liu Bai's control.
But this ti Liu Bai did not act personally. Instead, he directly added twenty thousand Beast Soul Points to Zong Qingfeng. The latter instantly recovered to his peak state. Not only that, his bloodline underwent another qualitative transformation.
A hundred zhang giant Kun suddenly burst forth from the spiritual light behind Zong Qingfeng. At the mont it soared into the sky, it transford into a golden giant Roc.
At this mont, Zong Qingfeng had finally broken through the final shackles and successfully advanced into a true Heavenly Roc. This scene left the other Heavenly Roc Clan mbers dumbfounded.
"This… how is this possible!"
"Back then Elder Beiming expended such great effort and only allowed him to initially awaken the Heavenly Roc bloodline. Why is it that now, in just a brief instant, his bloodline power has already developed to a level surpassing ours?!"
The Roc Clan possessed the Golden Winged Great Roc bloodline and also the Heavenly Roc bloodline. Previously, Zong Teng, who had been killed by Liu Bai, had awakened the Golden Winged Great Roc bloodline. Zong Qingfeng, because he was valued by the elders of the Heavenly Roc Clan, had been guided toward evolving the Heavenly Roc bloodline.
After successfully evolving his bloodline, Zong Qingfeng swept his gaze across the scene. He already understood Liu Bai's intention, which was for him to personally end the lives of these Heavenly Roc Clan mbers. He was more than willing to do so.
The golden giant Roc in the sky suddenly dived down, carrying terrifying pressure as it charged toward them with overwhelming force.
"This is bad. He has gone mad. Kill him quickly!"
The Heavenly Roc Clan mbers were shocked and hurriedly controlled the Roc Spirit Pearl, releasing terrifying devouring power in an attempt to swallow the newly evolved Heavenly Roc true form in one move.
Reality quickly told them they were mistaken.
Originally, their strength had already been inferior to Zong Qingfeng. Otherwise, the Heavenly Roc Clan would not have made him the leader of this exploration team.
With Liu Bai's help, Zong Qingfeng had not only awakened the complete Heavenly Roc bloodline, but his cultivation had also advanced further due to the elevation of his bloodline, stabilizing at early stage Eighth-Grade Sovereign.
Although the apparent increase was not as great as Bai Bin's, there was a clear gulf between Seventh-Grade and Eighth-Grade. Thus, the current Zong Qingfeng completely possessed the strength to exterminate these Heavenly Roc Clan mbers.
After a terrifying cry, under everyone's shocked gazes, the golden giant Roc directly swallowed the Kunpeng Spirit Pearl in one gulp. Then it opened its beak and spat out tens of thousands of lightning rays.
The great lightning seal that Zong Qingfeng had previously used to resist the Void True Fla within the array flew out along with the thunder. It expanded to a hundred zhang in size and suppressed the Heavenly Roc Clan mbers below.
["Ding. Your Beast Pet has killed one Seventh-Grade Sovereign enemy and obtained three hundred thousand experience points and seven thousand Beast Soul Points."]
["Ding. Your Beast Pet has killed one Seventh-Grade Sovereign enemy and obtained two hundred eighty thousand experience points and six thousand five hundred Beast Soul Points."]
"…"
The corner of Liu Bai's lips lifted. As expected, since Beast Pets were recognized by the system as belonging to him, their kills were naturally attributed to him as well.
More importantly, the experience gained from a Beast Pet killing an enemy was judged based on the Beast Pet's own cultivation level. Thus, when Zong Qingfeng as an Eighth-Grade Sovereign killed a Seventh-Grade Sovereign enemy, the experience gained was reduced by half, rather than being reduced to one third or even one fifth as in Liu Bai's case.
As for Beast Soul Points, a Seventh-Grade Sovereign Heavenly Roc divine beast provided far more Beast Soul Points than an ordinary spiritual beast.
When all five Heavenly Roc Clan mbers were killed by Zong Qingfeng, the forty thousand Beast Soul Points Liu Bai had just spent were almost fully recovered. This made Liu Bai inwardly delighted.
His gaze swept across the few remaining people in the field. Everyone who t Liu Bai's gaze felt a chill in their hearts as coldness enveloped their entire bodies.
"There is one last spot remaining…"
As Liu Bai spoke, Bai Bin and Zong Qingfeng also looked at the remaining people with sharp eyes, as if ready to pounce and tear them to pieces at any mont.
At this ti, only Chi Hongwu and three Ice Phoenix Clan mbers remained on one side, while the Heavenly Crane Clan still had a team of five on the other.
"Hehe, Liu Bai, is it? I must admit, you are strong and cunning. But my Heavenly Crane Clan has no one who survives by compromising. There is no need to waste your effort. If you wish to kill , then do it directly."
The leader of the Heavenly Crane Clan held a blood colored crane beak longsword. His bearing carried the pride unique to the Heavenly Crane Clan, showing no fear of death.
Liu Bai sighed inwardly. Although these proud fellows were often irritating, it had to be said that they were worthy of their status as divine beasts.
As for the two who had chosen to acknowledge him as master, there was no need to speak of Bai Bin. He was truly a useless person, a rare disgrace among divine beast clans.
Zong Qingfeng was more complicated. It was likely related to his experiences within the Heavenly Roc Clan. The reason he was willing to serve a human was naturally tied to his own bloodline.
To elevate his bloodline, he was willing to abandon freedom and bear infamy. It had to be said that Zong Qingfeng was an extre individual.
Looking at the Heavenly Crane Clan group who appeared ready to face death, Liu Bai did not waste words and directly activated the grand array.
Under the Void True Fla, only a blood colored longsword remained once more.
Seeing that only the four of them were left, Chi Hongwu exchanged a glance with the three Ice Phoenix Clan mbers. Imdiately, terrifying spiritual energy fluctuations erupted from their bodies.
"This is bad. They are preparing to self detonate!"
Liu Bai frowned. He had not expected these four to be so resolute. Perhaps they had been angered by Bai Bin's cowardice and did not want Liu Bai or the Nine Nether Sparrow Clan to think that the Phoenix Clan were all people who feared death.
With a wave of his hand, four surging streams of Five Elent Spiritual Energy flew out and entered the grand array, shooting directly into the bodies of Chi Hongwu and the other three.
In the next instant, the spiritual energy that had been rapidly expanding within their bodies suddenly deflated like a punctured balloon and vanished completely. Because of the sudden disappearance of their spiritual energy, the four fell heavily from the sky and crashed onto the stone platform below.
The grand array in the sky had already been withdrawn by Liu Bai. At this ti, he and Jiu You and the others also returned to the stone platform.
Bai Bin and Zong Qingfeng landed before Liu Bai, saluted him, then stepped aside. Liu Bai looked at the four lying on the ground and said calmly, "I will give you a chance. Acknowledge as master, and all of you can live."
The main reason for keeping these Phoenix Clan geniuses was Mo Ling. Since Liu Bai had already decided to nurture the little girl and allow her to enter the Phoenix Clan in the future, he needed to leave her a few capable helpers.
As for why he chose to nurture Mo Ling instead of Bai Bin who had already acknowledged him as master.
Although the slave contract was relatively concealed, Liu Bai could not guarantee that flaws would not be detected when facing the Super Divine Beasts of the Phoenix Clan.
Especially for a genius who would be fully nurtured, there would certainly be close scrutiny. For safety, it was better for Bai Bin and Zong Qingfeng to remain low profile.
As for Mo Ling's future growth without the enhancent of his system ability, he could simply follow the example of Jiu You. Although the difficulty would certainly be greater, it would also be safer.
Liu Bai could not imagine the consequences if the old fellows of the Phoenix Clan discovered that a human had dared to plant insiders within their clan. At that ti, he would likely be torn to pieces.
