With these done, Fifth He's mind plunged into chaos; he had completely lost his sanity.
Blood continuously seeped from his nostrils...
Watching this, Huangfu Chenyi's expression remained indifferent, but he shook his head and said, "Truly a madman."
Opposite him, four contracted beasts stood shoulder to shoulder in front of Fifth He, exuding an imposing aura.
They were poised for action, awaiting Fifth He's combat command!
Fifth He pressed his hands to his head, a maniacal laugh spreading across his face.
"Come on! Fight!"
His eyes blazed with fervent battle intent, his mad demeanor resembling a human combat machine.
Responding to their master's call, the four contracted beasts simultaneously launched an attack towards Huangfu Chenyi!
"Dragon Bo! Use Radiant Paradise again for the main assault!"
"Desert Siren! Use Sinking Sands of Sin to slow the opponent's movement!!"
"Gigantus! Use Metal Guardian! Cover their attack!!"
"Phantom Wraith! Attack from the rear using Shadow Kill Formation for a surprise strike!"
Even in his disoriented state, Fifth He's combat commands were still orderly!
Without a doubt, he was a genius. But genius lies on one side, and madmen on the other; there was only a fine line between them.
This wave of attacks was a strategy he had specifically prepared for Huangfu Chenyi. He was confident that few people across the Beast Taming Continent could command four contracted beasts to fight simultaneously!
This was his final trump card!
Facing the ferocious charge of the four contracted beasts, Huangfu Chenyi's expression remained unchanged.
"To be my opponent, you are still lacking," he calmly commanded, "White Dragon, continue to use Absolute Defense."
The next moment, the attacks from Fifth He's four contracted beasts surged towards Huangfu Chenyi from all directions like a tide.
Then, all the attacks vanished the instant they touched the white, curved energy shield before him!
All attacks were blocked by White Dragon's Absolute Defense!
However, White Dragon's expression, compared to its previous calm demeanor, now showed a hint of strain and seriousness. Clearly, fending off these attacks was extremely taxing for it!
After a long while.
The relentless assaults from the four contracted beasts finally ended, and the various colorful skill effects slowly dissipated.
White Dragon retracted its shield, panting heavily.
It tilted its head to look at Huangfu Chenyi, its eyes filled with confusion and strong displeasure!
It possessed an intense desire to fight, appearing as if it was saying, "Don't stop me! I want to beat them to a pulp!"
Huangfu Chenyi stroked its head, smiling and shaking his head.
"Fighting here will only cause spatial collapse. Our objective is to retrieve this soon-to-be-born Star Domain Contracted Beast."
Contracted beasts of its SSS rarity were highly intelligent and understood the weighing of pros and cons. They would definitely not, like a certain dog, betray for a meal.
Fifth He, of course, was unaware that Huangfu Chenyi was conversing with his contracted beast.
In his mind, this assault could at least force the opponent into a direct confrontation!
This attack was unilaterally launched by Fifth He, but the commotion made it seem as if a great battle had just occurred. This was the destructive power brought by a Beast Master of his caliber!
The previously flat ground was now a mess, pockmarked with holes, kicking up dust and sand.
As the dust and smoke slowly cleared.
Fifth He stared intently at the changes on the field.
His gaze was piercing!
However, when he saw what happened next, he was utterly despairing!
Because in his vision, he did not see Huangfu Chenyi in a sorry state. The man and beast stood perfectly fine! Their clothes were even still neat and immaculate!
Fifth He's eyes widened in fury!!
"Why!" he roared with unyielding resentment.
This was almost his limit, yet he hadn't even managed to break through the defense of one of the opponent's contracted beasts!
He felt as though all his past efforts and sacrifices had become a joke.
He began to question his entire life.
Suddenly, it was as if a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind, and he shuddered.
His neck began to twist unnaturally, his limbs moving uncontrollably like a machine.
Arcing electricity appeared on his left cheek, which was covered by a silver mask. With a "zzzt" sound, the mask slowly fell off, finally dropping to the ground.
Revealing his mysterious left half of his face!
That half of his face was devoid of flesh and blood, with sunken eye sockets; it was terrifying and bizarre.
Most astonishingly, it was a face made of metal!
Seeing this, even Huangfu Chenyi frowned slightly. He thought to himself, "Could it be an android?" Then, as if he had guessed it all along, he smiled, "No wonder its voice sounds so unpleasant."
Huangfu Chenyi was already amazed, let alone Lu Fei, who had been secretly watching. After witnessing Fifth He's attack firsthand, he had already exclaimed "What the hell!" multiple times in his mind. Now, seeing Fifth He's true face, he didn't know what expression of pure shock to use to convey his astonishment.
Completely out of control, Fifth He, like a marionette, raised an arm, and his Beast Taming Scroll emitted another light.
The next moment, two more contracted beasts flew out from the Beast Taming Scroll.
Simultaneously, Fifth He's entire body began to smoke, emitting crackling sounds.
His contracted beasts all looked towards their master, their eyes filled with worry and fear, but they could not disobey their master's commands!
Huangfu Chenyi gave a wry smile, "You will die this way."
Several "kaka ka" sounds emanated from Fifth He's body, like a grotesque laugh.
"Alas..." Huangfu Chenyi sighed deeply. "Die Jia, let him sleep."
A dark figure appeared silently behind Huangfu Chenyi. A colorful bubble flew towards Fifth He, landed on him, and then burst.
The previously frenzied Fifth He, after a final unyielding struggle, finally collapsed onto the ground, falling unconscious.
The contracted beasts he had summoned looked at Huangfu Chenyi with grave eyes, filled with gratitude, as they entered their Beast Taming Scrolls.
Huangfu Chenyi naturally paid no attention to Fifth He's injuries. Stopping his frenzied self-destruction was already his utmost benevolence. Moreover, he had important matters to attend to.
He turned and continued towards the altar.
Lu Fei blinked slightly and quickly crouched down, using the shadows for cover.
This "great nephew" had said that if they met again twice, he would deal with him ruthlessly. He greatly valued these two opportunities!
Huangfu Chenyi's steps appeared casual, but his speed was astonishing. He began to ascend the altar.
In a flash, he stood before the giant black egg.
As if talking to himself, he asked, "Die Jia, is it her?"
A cackling laugh echoed, and Die Jia's dark figure slowly emerged. Well, it looked quite healthy; a mere seven orifices bleeding could heal within a few days for it.
Die Jia circled the giant black egg once and sniffed it with its nose.
Finally, it confirmed, "Yes, it's her!"
"Drakul!"
