The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1050 - 409: Cockroach Emperor

Lieyang Mushoucong gradually frowned.

With such reasoning, his side’s combat power was already quite strong.

Yet they were ultimately a pieced-together version, competing against the Divine Trace Lineage developed over multiple epochs was too risky.

"I have an unexpected opportunity here, with ’Zombie King’ and ’Zombie Queen’ being the main Guardian Saint Spirits around me."

"They are both at Minor Saintly Perfection, ranking slightly insufficient."

"However, they belong to a corps type, and when the two zombies combine their forces, they can summon a ’zombie army’."

"Once the steady influx of soldiers piles up, the overall combat power displayed won’t be inferior to someone with Supreme Sacred Great Achievement..."

Ye Yin briefly outlined his opportunities, causing Ye Liuying and Ye Hanjun to glance sideways.

Relying solely on himself to win the favor of the Holy Saint Embryo and to have it follow orders—this opportunity couldn’t just be glossed over lightly.

Writing an autobiography about his encounters over the years wouldn’t require any effort.

"The Gloomy Rose has three dark council members, two of whom—one died a natural death, the other perished accidentally—causing a steep drop in peak combat power."

"The remaining one is also very old."

"But the Gloomy Rose possesses a sealed Medicine Beast at Supreme Holy Completion, very proficient in combat."

"As long as one becomes a dark council member, the Medicine Beast will assist the council member, becoming his right-hand support."

Ye Yin’s thoughts spun rapidly, maintaining composure amidst the crisis, he said:

"We still have some buffer time."

"Since there is a gap in our power, we must gain the trust of this ’Rose Princess’ Medicine Beast."

"Lord Han, I need your help."

"I am only a candidate for the council, and there is another strong Competitor on par with me."

"We need to defeat him in the shortest time possible and then take control of the Gloomy Rose."

"That way, we have a chance to break into the Hai Xiong Clan’s fortress before the banquet starts and forcibly rescue Ye Mochou..."

"This plan is feasible," Ye Hanjun lightly nodded.

The banquet was in public view, and action there would instantly become the target of many arrows.

Only if they moved before the Hai Xiong Clan and the Cloud Witch Goddess, Light Witch Goddess officially met would they have a chance to meet the attack.

"How many soldiers does the Hai Xiong Clan have?" Ye Hanjun asked.

"I’m not sure, but it’s certain that they haven’t moved their entire tribe into the Cloud Sea."

"Their idea should be to first forge an alliance, which would avoid conflicts with the original dominant forces of the Cloud Sea. The deployed forces would necessarily be the vanguard, elite but not the entirety."

Ye Yin exhaled powerfully, speeding up his speech:

"I estimate at least one or two Holy Kings."

"Counting the other messy trump cards, even if the rescue fails, we won’t have a problem defending ourselves."

"Let’s start implementing it."

Ye Hanjun asked calmly:

"Where is the council member candidate? Time is pressing, we must decide the battle quickly with him."

"Someone’s unlucky today, running into the Godslayer Asura, an unwarranted disaster."

Lieyang Mushoucong shook his head, appearing very concerned for the other party.

"Follow me."

Ye Yin looked around, locked in the direction, stomped his foot, and immediately leaped from one cloud to another.

Ye Hanjun followed suit, hence, an unusual feeling of weightlessness enveloped his body.

It seemed like "jumping," "hopping."

The actual experience, however, felt more like swimming, with strong resistance suspending the body, the further each jump, the higher the height, the greater the pressure on oneself.

"No wonder it’s one of the Nine Seas, the natural laws here are so magical!"

The carefree GuaGua tried to move at "Super Light Speed."

The skill activated smoothly, and in no time, it completely adapted, asking excitedly:

"Cockroach Boss, how far is the Gloomy Rose’s territory?"

"Cockroach Boss?"

Ye Yin blinked, then realized this was the "GuaGua brand exclusive title."

He dismissed the confusion in his eyes, thought for a moment, and seriously answered:

"There’s a ’Teleportation Cloud’ nearby, a kind of spatial wormhole nurtured by heaven and earth."

"Using the Teleportation Cloud, we can arrive at the northwest area of the Cloud Sea within five days; the Gloomy Rose’s station is there."

"Awesome, let’s rescue the ’Evil Emperor’ in one go!" GuaGua was exhilarated.

"Ye Yin, what about your third Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits and the Blood Covenant Fond Spirit benefited from the ’Missionary’?" Ye Liuying suddenly asked.

She had always been unaware of Ye Yin’s situation, it was useful to get a lay of the land while they were on the road, and it would facilitate cooperation later.

"After advancing to the Seventh Rank, I didn’t rush to make contracts, but later when I met the Zombie King and Zombie Queen, I signed a contract with a ’Zombie Cockroach King’ possessing Holy Beast bloodline within their dynasty."

"As for the Blood Covenant, I was extremely lucky, bonded with the ’Cradle Mother Tree.’ The reproduction ability of Cockroach and Mantis increased fiftyfold..."

"Holy shit!"

Lieyang Mushoucong’s mouth twitched madly:

"Cradle Mother Tree? A rare Demon Beast that went extinct in the Near Ancient Era?"

"Its evolved form is the ’Cradle Mother Empress Tree’... The Taimo reproduces with no sperm or eggs, borrowing blood, while the Cradle Mother Empress Tree helps couples shorten the birth period, speeds up offspring growth, enhances future potential... and also acts as a mobile space station, accommodating young descendants to reside for long periods..."

"Ye Yin, how did you become a humanoid Cockroach battleship? Little GuaGua’s title has no faults at all!"

"That’s right!"

GuaGua completely dropped the somewhat pleasant nickname of "Lucky One," firmly affirming Ye Yin’s future name.

"I actually considered whether to develop in other directions."

"But the Blood Covenant Fond Spirits aren’t mine to decide. Since fate bound me with such creatures, maximizing the advantage could only exponentially increase my combat ability."
