Starting With Contract Pets-Chapter 275 - Am I A Genius?

Chapter 275 - Am I A Genius?

From a distance, the 10,000 Dragon Blood Pool was like a huge blood lake in the middle of the world with its diameter of more than ten kilometers. It was filled with dragon blood and seemed to have magma flowing at the bottom, causing the water to boil continuously and emit scarlet heat.

However, upon observing it with mental power, the evaporation was all dross and the scarlet water contained majestic energy.

In the center of the vast pond, a keel tree grew. Its branches were made of dragon vertebrae and leaves made of dragon heads.

Each dragon head had a small blood-colored fruit in its mouth; the energy and nutrients of the blood pond were continuously being absorbed by the blood-colored fruits through the dragon bones.

There were two of such ponds: one was the corpse of a God Dragon and the other was the corpse of a Giant Dragon. The God Dragon Blood Pool was in front of Su Bai.

"This is the 10,000 Dragon Blood Pool. Little Dragon, open your mouth and eat this. See if you can break through."

Su Bai jumped onto Planet Eye, took out a scarlet ball of light, and threw it to his pet dragon.

This was a Blood Curse left by a sovereign, dragon-blood dual attribute monster. Qin Miao had given him the Blood Curse before, but he had not used it. At this time, it was just the right time to use it with the 10,000 Dragon Blood Pool.

Little Blood Dragon had been stuck at the low-level emperor for a long time and had turned many pets into its blood subordinates. Now, its origin was stable enough to be promoted again.

"Roar!" I'll live up to Ah Bai's expectations!

Little Blood Dragon swallowed the scarlet ball of light, turned into a five-kilometer-long body, and plunged into the blood pond.

As it entered the blood pond, it let go of everything and began absorbing the power inside with all its strength.

In the same way, the sovereign Blood Curse, which it had just swallowed, burst out; all the power crazily penetrated all parts of its body.

A scarlet vortex formed around it, and for a while, all the various forces in the blood pool burrowed into its body, seemingly wanting to burst through it.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, the deep, guttural roar of his pet dragon sounded from the blood lake, and then an evil and terrifying aura erupted from it. This aura was far more terrifying than any eruption of Little Blood Dragon in the past.

Now, it was full of evil, filth, tyranny, and greed. That kind of deep evil was extremely ancient as if it were the origin of all evil between heaven and earth. When it appeared, it made all the creatures tremble to the depths of their blood.

It was the first time Su Bai had seen his pet dragon erupt with such a terrifying aura. At this moment, the world darkened, and all the dragon pets within a thousand meters fled quickly.

The blood in the scarlet pool suddenly calmed down, seemingly being subdued by Little Blood Dragon, which slowly absorbed it.

Su Bai looked at the blood pond; his dragon's pair of eyes had changed from black to blood-red.

The aura on it kept soaring, and soon it reached the mid-level emperor grade, before continuing to rise to the high-level emperor grade.

Su Bai felt that something was wrong and quickly checked the information of his dragon. After reading the data, his hanging heart gradually calmed down.

However, his eyes narrowed as he stared at the scarlet pond; a trace of solemnity gradually appeared in them.

The aura of Little Blood Dragon continued to grow stronger and soon broke directly to the mid-level emperor. It had directly been promoted to a high-level emperor and was still rising.

Time slowly passed, and after a long time, its aura finally stabilized at peak high-level emperor, which was one step away from the sovereign grade.

In fact, it could continue advancing, but Su Bai's contract book was only a three-star diamond.

That was equivalent to a high-level monarch; his pet could only be one level higher than him at most, so his pet dragon was currently stuck at its grade now.

Little Blood Dragon opened its eyes and their scarlet color gradually returned to normal.

"Roar." Ah Bai, I've succeeded.

It flew toward him.

"Wait a minute. Go to the blood pond to see if there's a dragon-shaped statue at the bottom. Find it and bring it to me," he said suddenly.

"Roar~" I understand~

Little Blood Dragon did not ask the reason why and directly plunged into the blood pond, swimming toward the bottom of it.

"Wait—stop! Let's discuss it first!"

Suddenly, a dragon apparition appeared in the blood pond and shouted.

Su Bai sneered coldly. "When you dealt with the Ancestor Blood Dragon earlier, why didn't you expect this result, Dragon Spirit of the God Dragon World?"

When he called its name, this Dragon Spirit was stunned on the spot. It had no idea that humans would be able to recognize it and had even seen his attack moments prior.

"Wait. Since you know me, let's discuss things. Don't do it! Let's talk about it first…"

The Dragon Spirit panicked upon feeling the Ancestor Blood Dragon approaching and directly plunged into the bottom of the pond to stop it without haggling with him.

"You can't do this; I'm the Dragon Spirit of the God Dragon World! I can give you everything. Don't take my statue…"

This Dragon Spirit was going crazy. It did not understand why this human being was so sure that the statue was at the bottom of the blood pool.

No, how did he know its identity and know that the statue was here? It clearly had not told anyone about this.

Get lost!

Little Blood Dragon swept it away with one claw, shaking the keel at the bottom of the pond. Immediately, it saw a black dragon-shaped statue buried under the white bone.

"Roar!" I've found it!

Its eyes lit up and it lifted its claws to grab the statue before flying out of the blood pond.

Ah Bai, isn't it this? it placed the ten-meter-high statue in front of him and asked.

"Yes, that's right." He glanced at it and nodded.

It was a pity, though, that the Dragon Spirit had abandoned this statue and escaped.

He was not helpless and turned to look at the blood pool. "Although you've escaped in time, if you don't come out again, I'll leave this world with the statue."

Before he finished speaking, the Dragon Spirit emerged, staring at him vigilantly. "Let's discuss things first. As long as you're willing to return the statue to me, I can exchange it with any treasure."

It was very helpless now in the face of this monster.

First, the Blood Dragon, the Ancestor Blood Dragon of the evil camp that had been completely wiped out long ago, had unexpectedly reappeared in its world.

This was impossible because it had been completely eradicated and should never have appeared again.

Second, and what shocked it even more, this Ancestor Blood Dragon was actually contracted by a human.

This was once the root of evil, the terrifying existence feared by countless monsters in the endless void. How could it be a contracted pet at this moment?

Thus, it had decided to take advantage of it to advance by using the ability to awaken the ancient memory hidden deep in the Ancestor Blood Dragon's bloodline. It could truly awaken this way.

It would then take refuge in it. Anyway, the God Dragon World was destroyed, and no one cared even if he relied on the Blood Dragon, the Ancestor Blood Dragon of evil camp.

However, after doing all this, the Dragon Spirit was surprised to find that all had been useless.

This was the Ancestor Blood Dragon, but there was no memory at all in the depth of its bloodline, only ancient power.

In other words, this was actually a brand-new Ancestor Blood Dragon, which was simply unreasonable.

The most terrifying thing was this human being, though. He was like the Mermaid Recorder of All Things in the legend, knowing everything.

He actually knew that he was the Dragon Spirit of the Dragon World that had been shattered for tens of thousands of years and even knew exactly where the statue was staying, which was simply terrifying.

"My lord, I have a part of the Ancestor Dragon cursed bone. It's well preserved; I originally prepared it for myself, but I can give it to you now.

"You should also know that your Ancestor Blood Dragon is actually not a complete body, but if you have this Cursed First Dragon's bone, it has a 90% probability of awakening its strongest natal characteristics and may even obtain some of the origins of the cursed dragon, thereby gaining some characteristics or skills that belong to the cursed dragon," the Dragon Spirit looked at Su Bai from a distance and said. It was so far away and did not give him any chance to attack at all.

Su Bai looked at the stone statue in front of him. It had some effects, but compared with the bones of a Cursed First Dragon, it would be far behind.

This Dragon Spirit was right; the Ancestor Blood Dragon really had to be awakened.

"Of course, if you take out the corpse of the cursed dragon, I can return this statue to you. I'm a man of my words and I never lie." He nodded and gave this promise.

The main reason was that he could not catch this Dragon Spirit if it truly wanted to run away.

"This is an exchange contract; you can sign it."

The Dragon Spirit condensed a special rune and floated in front of him.

"I want a complete dragon corpse," he looked at the contract and said indifferently.

"The Cursed First Dragon doesn't have a complete corpse at all. It's torn apart to death. Each part of the corpse is buried in different areas, and I only have its spine here," the Dragon Spirit explained.

"I don't believe you; dragons are all cunning creatures." Su Bai shook his head.

"I vow on the void."

As soon as the Dragon Spirit issued a special oath, it melted into the void and disappeared.

This confirmed its honesty.

"Then this isn't enough; you have to get me three more treasures that contain the law of life," he said.

"Human, you're insatiably greedy." The Dragon Spirit's eyes turned red. This d*mn human being is greedier than a dragon!

"If you disagree, then forget it."

He put the dragon-shaped statue directly into his storage ring and moved to leave.

"I only have two treasures that contain the law of life, not three!" the Dragon Spirit hurriedly shouted. If only it had the confidence to best this strong Ancestor Blood Dragon, it would really try to kill this d*mn human with a bite!

"Give me the two treasures containing the law of life, along with the spine of the cursed dragon, then. Draw up another exchange contract," Su Bai turned around and said.

The Dragon Spirit obediently revised the contract, and Su Bai dripped a drop of his blood on it.

As soon as the contract was established, the black dragon-shaped statue in his storage ring disappeared into thin air.

A huge spine with a length of more than five hundred meters and a diameter of three hundred meters and two branches of a tree appeared in front of him.

Obviously, the spine was that small section of the cursed dragon's skeleton. He checked its information and found that it was indeed the spine of a Cursed First Dragon. Moreover, the Dragon Spirit had already wiped out the curse attached to it. There was no need to deal with it anymore, and he could use it straightaway.

He then glanced at the two branches containing strong laws of life. Both were from a kind of plant core called the Tree of Life.

"Thanks a lot," he said with a smile.

"Hmph!"

The Dragon Spirit snorted coldly and looked aggressively at him. It had taken tens of thousands of years to eliminate the curse originally attached to the cursed dragon's spine, wanting to make a body for itself.

Who knew that it had actually been making a wedding dress for a human being and had even given away two more tree cores? D*mn it!

There was no other choice, alas. The statue was made of Dragon Heart Stone, a precious material from the God Dragon World. It had absorbed a lot of dragon energy and had been very well-maintained.

If it were taken away, the Dragon Spirit would continue to weaken. Although it would not die, it would never have the chance to leave this world.

"You'd better not act rashly. You just hid the statue at the bottom of another blood pond; don't think that I don't know." Su Bai sneered.

"Impossible! How did you know?" The Dragon Spirit's eyes widened, shocked and in disbelief.

How could this human have guessed where it hid the statue anew? It gradually felt a deep-seated fear inside.

This human being was definitely related to the Mermaid Recorder of All Things, or else how could he possibly find the location of its hidden statue again.

"Don't worry; I won't interfere with you. I promise." The Dragon Spirit completely gave up, afraid of this scary human being.

It did not know that the culprit who had exposed the statue's location was actually itself.

It was precisely because Su Bai saw it that he knew the location of the statue.

After swearing, its figure flashed and disappeared without a trace. It did not want to stay with him for a second longer.

Su Bai was nonchalant. It could run away as it liked since it would still be trapped in this world.

There was no way to take it now, but that did not mean that he could not do so in the future.

He took out the branches of the Tree of Life and summoned his contract book. After thinking about it, he still integrated them in his contract book.

In fact, he was unsure whether he could advance his current diamond contract book to amethyst grade this way.

This was because, starting from the diamond level, the promotion of contract books no longer solely depended on materials.

It also required a Pet Tamer's aptitude, that was, his mental power. Only enough mental power combined with materials could advance the contract book.

In fact, mental power was not needed until the diamond contract book. It was also needed before, but only a small and negligible amount.

When it came to the diamond grade, though, a contract book needed a lot of mental power to advance; the difficulties were, hence, heightened.

Mental power was difficult to improve just by relying on external forces; the most important thing was to rely on oneself.

Although spirits could provide backfeeding, the innate aptitude of summoners were also very important, or else even if he contracted all spirits and monsters, it might still not be enough for his subsequent promotion.

Generally speaking, the amethyst contract book could still be upgraded with the help of external forces, but it was said that the epic contract book required a certain qualification of the Pet Tamer.

This was also why the number of heavenly king-level Pet Tamers was relatively small.

What did it mean to have outstanding talent?

That depended on whether the spiritual sea experienced any changes when the contract book was promoted to the diamond grade.

Undoubtedly, Su Bai's sea of spirit had changed at the beginning and had evolved into a galaxy model.

If anyone could see his spiritual sea, they would definitely be surprised because it seemed like a miniature galaxy.

There was a golden ball of light like the sun in the middle, which was composed of Su Bai's spiritual power and soul. It was continuously absorbing the mental power and slowly growing.

On the outside of the golden sphere were many small spheres of light like planets. Each had a different breath, but all were slowly revolving around the golden sphere.

It was just like the relationship between the sun and the eight planets. Su Bai did not know whether this mutation was a big one or not because he had never asked anyone about this issue.

"Forget it. Let's just give it a try."

Following this, his contract book exuded bursts of the law of life and pulled in the Tree of Life's branches.

With the integration of the materials, it flew back to Su Bai's spiritual sea and fell above the golden sphere of his spiritual power and soul.

He then felt a steady flow of spiritual force being drawn by the contract book.

He was a little scared; if his mental strength was not enough, would he become a fool?

While he was still worried and afraid, his contract book suddenly shone brightly and was directly promoted to a one-star amethyst grade.

"Huh?"

Was it not said that, in general, the spiritual power of summoners was barely enough to advance their contract books?

"Am I a genius?"

Su Bai looked at this scene in his spiritual sea and was a bit puzzled. This was because the spiritual power just absorbed by the contract book was not even one-thousandth of his total spirit.

Had something gone wrong?

However, his contract book had obviously successfully been promoted to the amethyst grade, which was again a certainty.

He took out his contract book and examined it. It was really an amethyst grade contract book, with an increment of six pages, reaching a total of thirty-one pages.

In addition to this, he found that he had an additional summoner skill, which was called Life Chain.

Life Chain: The skill of a Pet Tamer. The summoner can condense the special life chains of the contract book as well as mental power and establish a connection with the pets. The life damage of all connected pets will be shared equally and distributed to each pet evenly.

His eyes lit up upon seeing this summoner skill. Was this not just a disguised life-sharing skill?

Now, he could control all of this artificially. One must know that he had the existence of vitality-exploding pets, such as the Starry Omnivore Kraken and the Ancestor Blood Dragon.

This was mentioning the ten unhatched krakens at home. Once those krakens grew up, he would use Life Chain to connect all his pets together. Coupled with the power of the Blood Moon divine skill, he estimated that he could easily fight with existences two major levels above him.

"Am I a genius?" He was still a little unsure and felt that he had to go back and ask Qin Miao or Chen Ruoxue.

For the time being, he suppressed the idea inside. His contract book had reached the amethyst grade and he was just one step away from becoming a title-level Pet Tamer.

The next step was for Little Blood Dragon to swallow the spine of the Cursed First Dragon and see what kind of gains it would obtain after doing so.

He really wanted to thank this Dragon Spirit; otherwise, he could not have had such a big gain.
