"He's just a waste. If he dies, he dies. I don't believe that old Blaze Ash can come after me." Caressing the centipede at his feet, Snow Fang smirked darkly.
"If he does come, be prepared. I'm going to sever the soul contract."
With that, Snow Ahmad formed a seal with one hand, and with a splutter, a mouthful of blood sprayed from his mouth. Seeing this, Snow Feng quickly stuffed a pill into Snow Ahmad's mouth.
"We've been at odds for over ten years, Regret. Today, your fate ends on your own turf." A sinister grin curved on Snow Feng's lips.
"The so called Spirit possession is when the spiritual master exerts partial control over the spiritual beast by severing half of the soul contract in advance. In this state, it's challenging for other spiritual masters to perceive the ownership of this spiritual beast. It's a ruthless method used for assassination and ambush. Most targets rarely get to experience such treatment."
The reason it's described as ruthless is because once the Spirit possession is completed, the spirit master cannot recall the spirit contract anymore. In other words, this spirit beast cannot form another contract with the spirit master in the future. Once the bond is severed, the spirit master will suffer severe backlash, at least for the next three months, during which the Spirit possession cannot be formed again, unless a large amount of spiritual medicine or elixirs are used.
Regret clicked his tongue, wondering who had such a great grudge against him to go to such lengths. Apart from Snow Feng and Kartis Man, in this ancient Veloria city, he really couldn't think of a second person.
If Red was just a low ranking third stage novice, then today his life would definitely be left in these deep mountains and old forests without a doubt. But looking at the current situation, all he could say was that the other side was just wasting their time.
"Be cautious, the Spirit possession is completed," the voice of Master Magi came again during contemplation.
"Now that it's done, let's finish it off," Regret said indifferently.
"Roar!"
Red's body slightly arched, then suddenly pounced out without any hesitation. His right claw began to burn with a hint of flame, and as he swung it, a sharp whistling sound could be heard in the air.
The confusion in the eyes of the Earth split Scorpion retreated, replaced by endless fierceness. Its pincers tore through the air fiercely as it met the attack head on.
"Clang!"
The collision of the two figures, completely unmatched, occurred. The Earth split Scorpion stood firm as a rock, while Red tumbled backward, clearly at a disadvantage in the simple clash.
Naturally, due to their race, the petite Flame Cat is in a league of its own when it comes to pure strength, only comparable to the Earth split Scorpion if it is overwhelmed, otherwise it is impossible to be on par with it.
At this moment, a faint red light shone in Regret's eyes with some red light swirling about. On his right hand, there was also a faint glow emanating.
"Spiritual power resonance?" The master Magi looked at Regret with interest.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the Earth split Scorpion closed its pincers and heavily hammered them down towards the ground, causing sharp ground spikes to tear apart the earth, quickly spreading towards Red.
"A spiritual beast without a spirit Mastert's control dares to kill me, how foolish!"
Regret snorted coldly, slowly raised his right hand, then suddenly twisted it. The two flaming claws of Red rose with searing flames, shattering the incoming sharp earth spikes instantly into pieces, scattering them all around!
"So this is spiritual power resonance." Regret sighed lightly in his heart, feeling as if he had merged with the Red. Even if he closed his eyes, the sights that the latter could see were also presented before him.
"A spirit master who cannot control spiritual beasts is no different from an ordinary person. If you can't even perform spiritual power resonance, what's the point of a spirit master? You've only just begun to experience the wonders of the Spiritual Beast Continent; the road ahead is long." The master Magi circled around, finally diving back into that old book, leaving only a faint voice lingering in the empty space.
"Feeling quite good, as a token of my gratitude for improving my mood, I'll gladly accept the gift from the snow family without hesitation."
Regret smiled, his handprint suddenly changed, a strange light flashed in the eyes of Red, then suddenly swooped towards the Earth split Scorpion's back. The two intersecting Cat claws left clear red traces in the air.
"A loud bang!"
With a deep muffled sound, amidst the dust, the enormous body of the Earth split Scorpion slowly fell to the ground while the vitality in its eyes gradually dissipated.
Atop the corpse of the Earth Split Scorpion, Red panted heavily, lowering its small head. Under its claws, the shell of the Earth split Scorpion was already covered with wounds of various sizes, the deepest one clearly located near its head.
"The resonance of spiritual power does wield formidable power, but the consumption of spiritual power is also terrifying."
Regret also looked weary. The sixth order Earth split Scorpion was far stronger than the Snow Ape, and being of the rock type spiritual beast, it had a certain restraint effect on fire type spiritual beasts. If someone were to command it, the outcome of this battle might not be so simple.
Jumping to Regret's side with the last of its strength, Redt's legs trembled slightly before curling up beside him. This was a clear sign of complete depletion of strength and spiritual power. Looking at the wounds on the Earth Split Scorpion's body, one could only guess how many times it had attacked.
"Now, I should be able to use the Flame Spirit Grass."
Gently lifting Red, Regret took out the Flame Spirit Grass from his bag. It had to be said that spiritual herbs were truly exceptional, far beyond the likes of materials such as Purple Profound Leaves; it was difficult to destroy them without significant impact.
