Spirit Master Girl: Contracting with an SSS-Level School Beauty at the Start-Chapter 77: Resolving the Seven Great Federations

Xiao Zhan didn’t even glance at the corpse split in two, continuing his run towards the signal location.

His body was brimming with Spirit Manipulation Energy, as the Death Demon Scythe, while inflicting damage on others, also absorbed a portion of the Spirit Manipulation Energy to feed back into him.

And this feedback became significantly more pronounced after his strength reached the Second Grade, and especially during a killing spree.

If the initial feedback rate was about one percent, now it was at least three percent, and this rate would continue to increase with his strength breakthroughs.

The Spirit Manipulation Energy that Xiao Zhan had expended in running and attacking was mostly replenished by the lives of Char and Hilman in an instant.

It was almost as if he hadn’t used any energy at all.

He suddenly considered a possibility. If he were to face a First Grade Spirit Master, could it be that he wouldn’t just be able to handle twenty or thirty of them?

Given the current battle situation, the energy needed to instantly kill a First Grade Spirit Master was approximately five percent of the total Spirit Manipulation Energy reserve.

Spend five percent, get back three percent.

Following this calculation, he could potentially take on a hundred First Grade Spirit Masters at once.

Just the thought of that number was terrifying.

Moreover, the feedback effect of the Death Demon Scythe would only become stronger, so thinking about perseverance in battle was unimaginable.

Xiao Zhan suddenly understood why Ye Wuming was called the ’God of Death’.

With such an attribute, he was practically slaughtering demon beasts at the border without restraint!

It’d be strange if the demon beasts weren’t terrified to the core.

Stabilizing his emotions, Xiao Zhan rapidly advanced.

Signal Rally Point!

Twelve people were to gather here, and of the seven Federations, six had already arrived. Now, only the last Federation’s members were yet to come.

One member from a Federation checked the time and frowned, "What’s going on? Why hasn’t ’Ears’ arrived after so long?"

"Could something have happened? Even if they were unlucky and ended up in the farthest reaches of the Secret Realm, they should have made it by now."

"It shouldn’t be an issue. Aside from the unspoken rules of the Secret Realm, with ’Ears’’ Sharp-Hearing Ear Talent, he should be able to sense danger in advance and react."

"Give him another ten minutes. Without his talent, we’d be at a disadvantage. If he doesn’t show up in ten minutes, we’ll set off."

Everyone nodded in agreement, as per the prior arrangement, if someone didn’t gather within the set time after the signal was sent, they wouldn’t wait.

But ’Ears’ was special, being the scout of the team, so they granted him an extra ten minutes.

The seven Federations had very clear roles.

One ’Signal’, to inform about the rally point after entering the Secret Realm.

One ’Ears’, for environmental surveillance and enemy detection.

One ’Medical’, to sustain combat medicare and provide relentless assault.

Four ’Blades’, responsible mainly for attack.

This team configuration was the result of repeated discussions by the seven Federations, guaranteeing the highest chance of victory for all seven Federations.

The so-called ’Ears’ they mentioned were none other than Char and Hilman, who had perished at the hands of Xiao Zhan.

"No need to wait for them. I will take you to meet him right now."

Just then, a chilling voice reached their ears.

"Who’s there!"

Six people instantly went on alert, their weapons readily appearing in their hands.

Looking towards the source of the voice.

But they saw nothing; they could only witness a black mist, like a torrential flood devouring everything, rushing towards them.

In just an instant, before they could even react, they were engulfed by the black fog!

All visual senses vanished, panic, and bewilderment ensued, but fortunately, they were death soldiers with strong mental fortitude and quickly steadied their minds.

However, steadiness didn’t mean they could take any effective measures.

While they were contemplating their next move, suddenly, a Fish Lamp appeared before them.

Just one, yet all six saw six lamps.

They could only see the lamp, not the others.

This Fish Lamp, compared to the one previously cast by Xiao Zhan’s Fish Lamp Soul Summoning, had a hazier light and was even more captivating, ensnaring one’s gaze at first glance.

What followed was Xiao Zhan’s swift and merciless attack!

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...

One strike per card length of distance, six strokes, accompanied by six screams. When the Death Aura dissipated, there were six corpses on the ground.

Up to this point.

The so-called seven Great Federations, before they began their journey of hegemony, were strangled in their cradles by Xiao Zhan.

Having dealt with these six groups of enemies, there were ten more groups left in the Secret Realm.

But Xiao Zhan didn’t know where these ten groups were hiding; he needed to find a way to locate them or draw them out.

But drawing them out carried some risk, as those bold enough to come forth would undoubtedly be quite powerful; they might even be beyond the Second Grade.

Although Xiao Zhan wasn’t afraid, he knew that caution is the parent of safety since some people had unique Talent Skills.

So it was better to seek them out directly.

Those found would be unsuspecting rabbits—no risk, one scythe stroke carrying away a comrade!

Therefore, he set his sight on a direction and started his search.

...

A week later.

By a crystal-clear lake, a man and a woman with dark skin scooped up water with their hands and drank eagerly.

The sweet, refreshing lake water wetted their throats, making them feel nourished from the inside out.

"Ha~"

"I’ve finally broken through to the Second Grade. This Secret Realm will be dominated by the Black Dog Federation!"

The man laughed proudly, fantasizing about slaughtering his way through shortly thereafter.

But they were completely unaware that just behind them, a mass of black Death Aura was ruthlessly closing in!

The aura was chilling and swift, causing the vibrant green grass where it passed to wither into a dull gray.

Getting closer.

Suddenly.

The man sensed danger behind him.

He spun around with his Artifact Spirit appearing in his hand.

But it was too late for him to have reacted at this point. His Talent Skill hadn’t yet been deployed when Xiao Zhan’s Death Demon Scythe, carrying the Death Aura, was already in front of him.

In a face-off, a successful stealth attack on the Comrade Black, the Demon Scythe smashed against his head. A massive burst of energy instantly blew it open like a watermelon!

Blood splattered everywhere.

Together with the Artifact Spirit, which was flung into the lake, disappearing without a trace.

With a splash!

The man’s body unwillingly fell into the lake, creating ripples that instantly turned red.

He was full of regret. He had just broken through to the Second Grade, he had just had a sip of water, his reign had yet to begin—how could he perish so soon?

Xiao Zhan stood by the lake, looking at the body floating in the lake, his brow furrowed as he complained, "Babe, why exert such force? I said to be gentle, don’t contaminate the water—we need to drink it too."
