At this moment, in the eastern district of Nanjiang City,
A Silver-ranked Beastmaster stood with a cold expression, his eyes obscured by black mist, as he controlled his contracted spirit in a frantic battle.
"I'll stop him! You go knock out Old Zhang!"
The two men looked at the out-of-control individual before them and instantly made the most logical decision.
With that, one of them summoned three contracted spirits and immediately went into battle, forcibly engaging the opponent's contracted spirits.
The man frowned and shouted,
"What are you still dawdling for? Knock him out!"
His gaze swept over, and he instantly froze, his heart sinking abruptly.
He saw the other person standing still, while a faint, eerie black energy appeared in his eyes.
"It's over!"
The man's expression drastically changed. He hadn't expected both of them to be controlled.
His contracted spirit wanted to come to his protection, but instead, it was entangled by the opponent and found it difficult to break free.
The person standing in place, with a cold expression, summoned three contracted spirits and directly issued the order to kill.
Roar!
The three contracted spirits advanced. Facing a Beastmaster made of flesh and blood, the outcome was self-evident.
Just as this person was about to close his eyes and await death, his gaze suddenly froze. He looked behind his controlled teammate, as if he had seen something incredible.
"Huh?"
Despite his mind being invaded, the out-of-control individual still retained his instincts and immediately sensed that something was wrong.
However, as soon as he turned around, he was forcibly covered by a sack.
Bang!
Chen Shu delivered another punch, easily taking care of him. The opponent's three contracted spirits also returned to their Beast Taming Space.
He moved like a ghost and reappeared behind another out-of-control individual, swiftly dealing with another one.
"Brother Fierce Bandit..."
The survivor felt a sense of having narrowly escaped death, his eyes filled with gratitude.
"Live well."
Chen Shu nodded, threw the two onto Little Yellow's head, and disappeared again.
If he hadn't appeared in time, this person would have certainly died.
Similar situations were happening all over the country, and the resulting casualties and unrest were imaginable.
Half a day passed in a flash.
Chen Shu had already dealt with over a thousand out-of-control individuals.
Little Yellow had transformed into a thousand-meter-tall behemoth, with countless out-of-control individuals covered in urea sacks spread across its head, a truly spectacular sight.
However, even so, the disaster in the country had not ended.
His processing efficiency was quite high, but he still couldn't keep up with the increasing speed of the out-of-control individuals.
"Damn it! The number of out-of-control individuals has exceeded ten thousand. What kind of contracted spirit could be so heaven-defying?!"
Chen Shu couldn't help but curse as he looked at the dense red dots on the screen.
"And such a heaven-defying thing, I don't even have one?!"
Thinking of this, his efficiency in dealing with out-of-control individuals became even faster…
However, his personal strength was always limited, and it was practically impossible to control the internal chaos.
Now, the fierce beasts' offensive was fierce, and large numbers of powerhouses had to be deployed on the main battlefield, resulting in too few people to handle the internal unrest.
If the current situation continued,
Even if they could deal with all the out-of-control individuals, humanity would be severely weakened.
Who would have thought that a single Ling Chen could achieve so much?
While the various Beastmasters were striving to resist the fierce beasts and handle the out-of-control individuals, the old man was not idle either.
At this moment, above Longyuan City,
The old man stood alone in the sky, overlooking the entire city. There was a touch of emotion in his eyes as he murmured to himself,
"I didn't expect that I would need you so soon..."
As soon as he finished speaking, his expression shifted. His body emanated a dazzling blue light.
It was the boundless soul power within his body!
The next second, the light gradually withdrew from the old man's body.
Pure soul power flowed, instantly transforming into the appearance of an old man, identical to the old man himself, as if it were his own soul.
It was the soul-contracted spirit that had been residing within him all along!
The old man looked at his soul-contracted spirit and said calmly, "Let's begin!"
The soul-contracted spirit nodded, closed its eyes simultaneously, and immense soul power spread out, as if summoning something.
In an instant, Longyuan City, covered by soul power, underwent a change.
The once silent city seemed to come alive!
It was not endowed with life, but rather because the souls hidden within had awakened…
Roar!
At this moment, a faint but majestic roar sounded.
On the ground below, brilliant blue light suddenly appeared.
Immediately after, a giant dragon formed from soul power flew out. Although it had no physical body, it still exuded the pressure of a top-tier King-ranked existence!
And on the dragon's back, a middle-aged man stood with a dazed expression, seemingly not fully awake.
He was also a soul body, without a physical form, but his face was exactly the same as it was in life.
If Ning Bufan were present, he would undoubtedly recognize the person at a glance.
It was his mentor, and the former principal of Huaxia Academy!
"Xiao Xu!"
At this moment, the old man in the sky spoke softly, but his voice was like thunder, instantly waking the middle-aged man below.
"Old... Old man..."
Xu Cang's eyes widened, and he quickly bowed respectfully, his eyes still filled with admiration.
The old man smiled slightly and asked, "How do you feel?"
"It's a magical feeling, as if I've been reborn..."
Xu Cang touched the soul dragon beneath him, his eyes also filled with surprise.
"How has your strength recovered?"
"Peak is impossible, but to have seventy to eighty percent, I think it should be enough."
Xu Cang closed his eyes slightly, and at the same time, his mind moved.
Two contracted spirits at the peak of King-rank suddenly emerged from the ground beside him!
As for his other two contracted spirits, they had already fallen in battle, not even leaving complete corpses, so they could not awaken.
"That's good."
The old man nodded and said, "Now that Shenzhou is in trouble, we need you."
"It is our bounden duty!"
Xu Cang's body was as straight as a spear, his eyes filled with unwavering determination, without any hesitation.
"Good!"
The old man nodded and said, "Wait for the others to awaken together..."
At this moment, the legendary-ranked soul-contracted spirit beside him summoned again.
Longyuan City below trembled, echoing with waves of terrifying roars!
Dark ground, blood-stained city walls, magnificent buildings—soul creatures drilled out from them, their bodies emanating terrifying auras!
And on their backs stood Beastmasters with dazed expressions!
Everyone who appeared now was a hero who had fallen in battle in Longyuan City!
