Chapter 526 – Vajra Strength
The Vajra Baboon had cultivated to the ninety thousand-year level, so it was probably no problem for him to break through to the one hundred thousand-year level in the future.
“You’ll become my summoned beast? Through what summoning method?” Lan Xuanyu asked doubtfully.
The Vajra Baboon giggled. “Easy, easy. Look.” As it spoke, it pointed to its forehead and a golden rune appeared. The rune actually resembled the Gold Silk Ape and Lan Xuanyu immediately sensed it.
“I’m also here,” the Diamond Baboon said. “I’m different from a Spirit Soul, but you can summon me to your side at any time to help you fight or do something else. However, your spiritual power is still quite weak. If you want to summon me, you’ll have to expend a lot of energy. You’ll need some a.s.sistance, so I’ll teach you a ritual. You can try it later.”
Lan Xuanyu was surprised. “It can summon across planets?”
“s.p.a.ce is extremely mysterious,” the Vajra Baboon replied. “With the existence of the contract, you’ll be able to sense my spatial coordinates no matter how far away we are. Once you’ve awakened your spatial ability, you’ll be able to summon me easily. And right now, isn’t there a porcupine with you? If you ask it to help you, it will definitely consume its energy and you’ll be able to summon me at any time.” As it spoke, it pointed at the Thorn Dragon.
“Call me a porcupine again and you’re dead.” The Thorn Dragon glared at him.
The Vajra Baboon scoffed. “You’re about to become a Spirit Soul, what’s there to be c.o.c.ky about? You? I’ll punch you to death.”
The Thorn Dragon scoffed but didn’t refute. The Vajra Baboon’s most terrifying aspect was its pure strength. It was a soul beast that cultivated its strength to the extreme and all of its abilities were based on its strength. The various abilities it derived from its strength had exceeded an ordinary understanding of strength. There weren’t many soul beasts that could defeat the Vajra Baboon in a one-on-one battle.
Lan Xuanyu looked at the Thorn Dragon and asked, “Is it doable ?”
The Thorn Dragon said, “With your current cultivation, it will be a little troublesome. It’d be better to wait for you to awaken your s.p.a.ce type ability before you can truly summon it. If we do it forcefully, I will have to sleep for three months.”
Lan Xuanyu nodded. “I understand. It’s quite useless then, right?”
The Thorn Dragon was amused. “That’s right, that’s right, it’s useless. What can this big baboon do? It can’t go with you.”
The Vajra Baboon couldn’t take it anymore. “How am I useless? I’m very, very useful. I have your contract mark. Although you can’t summon me at any time, I can give you some of my abilities. You just have to activate the contract and you’ll be able to feel it. You can try.”
Lan Xuanyu’s heart stirred as he focused his attention and probed the contract imprint that he felt previously. Immediately, he felt a strange aura appear in his heart. The aura was very unique. Incomparably vigorous spiritual fluctuations spread throughout his entire body. In the next moment, he felt all the muscles in his body bulging as an indescribable sense of strength filled him.
He raised his hands subconsciously and realized that there was an additional layer of faint gold on the surface of his skin. It was different from the scales that came with the Golden Dragon Body. After this layer of gold appeared, it instantly fused with his bloodline and the strong power felt like it was about to seep out of his body.
“Vajra Strength. This is the main ability you’re able to borrow from me for now. Although I’m not your Spirit Soul, I can provide you with similar abilities. And I don’t even occupy one of your soul rings, how good of a bargain is this !” The Vajra Baboon lowered its body and smiled.
Vajra Strength? Lan Xuanyu nodded slightly. “It seems to be of some use.”
He could even feel that because of the appearance of Vajra Strength, the golden part of his bloodline seemed to be slightly agitated, and the speed at which his bloodline revolved increased. It was somewhat similar to the stimulation from the Explosive Blood Fruit, but it was purely stimulating his golden bloodline.
“Alright, that’s all for now. When will I be able to summon you?” Lan Xuanyu asked doubtfully.
The Thorn Dragon next to him said, “When you reach the level of a six-ring human soul master and awaken the power of s.p.a.ce, it should be enough.”
Six-ring ? Power of s.p.a.ce?
Lan Xuanyu’s heart skipped a beat. Every time he increased his cultivation by one ring, he would gain another type of control over the elements. Could it be that when he had six rings, he should be able to control the s.p.a.ce elements? If that was the case, it was pretty good!
Not bad. Although he didn’t obtain a Spirit Soul, the contract with the Vajra Baboon wasn’t bad either. It gave him a useful ability. Vajra Strength was quite interesting. He would try it out when he got back.
“Then that’s it for today. We’ll be leaving first. The soul beasts that have chosen a partner will follow us, right?” Lan Xuanyu said.
The Thorn Dragon quickly nodded its head and those chosen soul beasts looked at him excitedly.
“Let’s go back, then.” Lan Xuanyu waved his hand and walked in the direction he came from. After taking two steps, he felt that something was wrong because everyone was looking at him. Other than Dong Qianqiu who was still by his side, no one else moved.
Lan Xuanyu turned his head and realized that his cla.s.smates were all staring at him with their mouths agape. Some of them were even drooling.
He finally realized what the problem was.
In the beginning, he communicated with both the Thorn Dragon and the Yin Yang Chaos Bird through their thoughts. At least, the soul beasts communicated with him through their thoughts.
But when the Vajra Baboon arrived, everything happened through human speech. At least the Vajra Baboon, Yin Yang Chaos Bird, and Thorn Dragon were speaking in human language. More importantly, they addressed him as ‘Lord’.
At this moment, how could these first years not understand that Lan Xuanyu was the true instigator for them to be recognized by the soul beasts and by so many of them!
Lan Xuanyu coughed and said, “If I told you that I don’t know why they are acting like this, would you believe me?”
He saw a group of students shaking their heads.
“Then do you guys still want to fuse your Spirit Souls?” Lan Xuanyu asked.
Everyone immediately nodded.
Lan Xuanyu smiled. “Then, do you guys know what to do?”
“It’s a secret, we must keep it a secret.” Ding Zhuohan was about to become Lan Xuanyu’s lackey, so he immediately replied.
“That’s right, whoever doesn’t keep it a secret is dead meat.” Bing Tianliang jumped out as well. Purple Lightning Bear! Ten thousand-year Purple Lightning Bear! What Lord or not, he didn’t hear it. He only wanted the Purple Lightning Bear, this was his current mental mindset.
The first years all came to a realization. That’s right! What could be better than having such a suitable Spirit Soul?
“What happened previously? I got a little deaf just now.” Li Bin dug his ears.
Li Han said righteously, “How could you do that? Weren’t you shouting in my ear just now? I didn’t hear anything.”
Jia Yu was about to speak when Lan Xuanyu grabbed his shoulders. “The forest is fine, but so is the sea.”
Jia Yu’s eyes lit up and he quickly nodded. “Cla.s.s leader, I didn’t hear anything either.”
The first years all parroted each other.
Lan Mengqin rolled her eyes. ‘These flattering guys are doing all this just for a Spirit Soul?’
‘But why am I so envious of them? Why don’t I have one ?’ Lan Mengqin pouted, but she didn’t say anything in the end. The entire cla.s.s came to an agreement.
When Lan Xuanyu and his team returned to the starting point, the few big shots who were waiting there were stunned.
At this moment, including the Tang Sect, the War G.o.d Temple, and the Spirit PaG.o.da, there were also some students who returned with the soul beasts that acknowledged them. But there were definitely not many of them!
