"This is?!"
"My legendary contract spirit."
"???"
A Liang’s eyes widened, and he was instantly stunned…
"This is its initial form? Could it be a rare shapeshifting contract spirit?"
Certain special contract spirits can change their forms, and their combat power will naturally increase step by step. Generally speaking, such contract spirits are not too weak…
"Of course… not!" Old Xie said indifferently, "It only has this one form."
"???"
Not only A Liang was bewildered, but Fang Si and Xing Ling were also speechless.
"No, how can this little thing fight?!" Although the combat power of a contract spirit is irrelevant to its appearance, you can't be this outrageous…
"Why fight?" Da Feng Novel Network
"???" A Liang’s forehead was covered in black lines, and he fell into deep silence for a moment. Do you want to listen to what you're saying?
"Uh…" Old Xie also realized he had misspoke, coughed lightly, and said, "It's a purely supportive contract spirit."
As he spoke, the insect butterfly fluttered its wings and flew into Old Xie's hand, swallowing the green seed in one gulp.
In an instant, the insect butterfly’s aura became completely different. Its body was enveloped in a verdant glow, and a tender green sprout grew on its head…
"Ah, this…" A Liang stared at the strange scene before him, completely stunned.
"What is its specific function?" Fang Si also asked, his heart filled with surprise.
"All of my insect butterfly’s skills have now undergone a qualitative change," Old Xie said, crossing his arms confidently. "There is nothing in the world that I cannot find."
"Really?!" Fang Si raised an eyebrow, a hint of disbelief in his eyes. Even in the ancient era of beast tamers where experts were abundant, such a legendary beast tamer specializing in reconnaissance was extremely rare, a true oddity among oddities…
"Of course," Old Xie smiled faintly. "If even I can't find it, then no one else can."
"However… my combat power… you understand…"
"No problem!" Fang Si nodded. "This is exactly the effect we want."
"Get ready, we're leaving immediately!"
"So urgent?" Wang Jue was slightly taken aback, then said, "I don't need to prepare anything, I can leave right away."
"Don't you need to adapt to your power?"
"No, I'm not participating in the fight."
"…"
In August of the Resurgence Calendar 997, Xie Sunan, known as the 'Savior of Cowards,' successfully broke through to the legendary level…
…
With Old Xie's addition, the combat power of Fang Si's small team increased again. The three gathered, discussed their next plan, and the next day, the Fang Si trio left the Starry Sky Ruins once more…
"Be careful!" Almost as soon as they emerged, the insect butterfly in Old Xie's hand issued a warning.
"What is it?"
"Near Longjiang on the continent, there are three terrifying fierce beasts!" Old Xie frowned and said, "One is a newly advanced lower-level legendary, and the other two are… upper-level legendaries!"
"As expected…" Fang Si was not surprised. Because of the Crimson Eyed Pig Demon, the fierce beasts would not give them any more chances to hunt.
"Let's go," Old Xie shook his head. "If we fight, our win rate is less than one percent."
"Huh?" Fang Si was slightly stunned. "How do you know?"
"The insect butterfly can roughly analyze it," Old Xie said, a hint of pride in his eyes. "However, this is just an estimate; we can only analyze the true win rate after fighting them."
"That amazing?!" A Liang's eyes were filled with surprise. He had not expected the other party's insect butterfly to have such a function.
"It's not just that," Old Xie continued. "The insect butterfly can actually see the enemy's talents, skills, and weaknesses."
"These too?!" Fang Si and A Liang were completely stunned on the spot. At this moment, they realized they might have underestimated Xie Sunan a bit…
"Reconnaissance isn't just about searching…" Old Xie saw their expressions and said, "I can understand all sorts of intelligence."
"Uh…" Fang Si and A Liang exchanged glances. They had only expected Old Xie to help find stray beast emperors, and they hadn't anticipated such an unexpected bonus… Now, it seemed Old Xie's support ability could be considered legendary.
"In that case, let's begin the slaughter!" The three left the Divine Continent and headed straight for the spatial passage in the extreme north of Blue Star, preparing to travel to the Ancient Beast Taming Continent.
…
Three days later, with Xie Sunan's assistance, the trio successfully hunted a newly promoted beast emperor. Old Xie not only found isolated beast emperors but could also see through enemy information and weaknesses, making his role undeniably significant. This action also enraged the beast emperors. They never expected the other party to dare to infiltrate their lair; this was surely Chen Shu's style… Angered, the beast emperors began to search for the three on the continent. However, with the existence of teleportation potions and Old Xie's early warnings, Fang Si and his companions did not encounter any crises. After the pursuit yielded no results, the beast emperors’ anger gradually subsided, and their vigilance increased. They had thought that with Chen Shu's death, humanity would be crushed and pose no threat. But now, it seemed they had underestimated this race. Under the arrangement of the fierce beast Xiangliu, legendary fierce beasts were paired up, and newly promoted beast emperors were inevitably protected by an upper-level fierce beast. This way, humans would find no opportunity to strike. After Fang Si’s trio hunted a beast emperor, they returned to the Starry Sky Ruins to allow another person to break through.
"Give it to Wang Jue." Fang Si looked at Xing Ling and made a decision.
"Uh… isn't it Xiao Xing?"
"Now we have teleportation potions to save our lives," Fang Si said. "Besides, Wang Jue is of the space element and also provides a bit of protection."
"Both of them are focused on support, so there's no difference, right?" A Liang was also stunned. Wasn't it decided to be Xiao Xing earlier…
"I changed my mind temporarily," Fang Si said calmly. "We've hunted two beast emperors, and the fierce beasts won't give us another chance. If we want someone else to break through, we can only plunder resources."
"Wang Jue's spatial bird can carry a large amount of resources; this is very important."
"That makes sense…" A Liang was slightly stunned and did not object further.
"Xiao Xing, next time for sure…" Fang Si glanced at Xiao Xing, who was still in secluded cultivation within the ruins. Resources are now scarce, and without spiritual energy supply, breaking through is not an easy task. However, Xiao Xing cannot easily leave the breakthrough state, otherwise, it's unknown when the next breakthrough will be. Thus, he can only maintain this state…
