Chapter 536: Chapter 408: Spirit Cleansing, Memory Erasure
Two phantom blades tore open a ten-meter long cold light, leaving two deep wounds on the Wind-binding Spirit’s body.
Soon, fissures appeared on the Wind-binding Spirit’s body, which were caused by Mo Ye’s previous Homeless Flame Fox. Now, being torn and burned by the Crown Flame Claws once again, these wounds began to expand continuously!
“Zzzzzzzz~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~”
The Wind-binding Spirit, in immense pain, swayed its body in the sky and flew around the entire battlefield, trying to alleviate the invasion of Mo Ye’s Crown Flame.
Chu Mu’s goal was to defeat this high-ranking, eighth-stage Wind-binding Spirit, not to kill it. So, when he attacked, he deliberately asked Mo Ye to lower the power of the Crown Flame. Chu Mu knew that once the Crown Flame invaded the wind-binding spirit’s body, it would definitely ignite along the cracks caused by Mo Ye’s previous Homeless Flame Fox, and if the Wind-binding Spirit’s vitality was not strong enough, its insides might be burned to ashes.
“Whimper~~~~~~~~~~”
Mo Ye didn’t continue to chase the Wind-binding Spirit but stepped forward, walking slowly towards Chu Mu.
Mo Ye’s silver body was covered in crimson blood, which was all his own…
The Crown Flame burned on Mo Ye’s body. As he took steps towards Chu Mu, his body shrank gradually in the burning fire and finally turned into a delicate and pet.i.te Nine-Tailed Little Fox…
With Mo Ye maintaining Chu Lian’s State, the wounds he suffered would shrink proportionally along with his body. Mo Ye, however, didn’t care, as he lightly jumped onto Chu Mu’s shoulder and lay there licking his wounds with his little tongue.
The dim shadows on the battlefield gradually dispersed, and the bright moonlight fell down, shining on Mo Ye’s body.
Bathing in the moonlight, Mo Ye’s shallow wounds began to heal noticeably fast…
Mo Ye could heal himself from injuries at this level, and self-healing would also mean another growth for him, so Chu Mu didn’t use any medicine to help him recover. Instead, he gently touched Mo Ye’s head and said, “Take a good rest.”
“Whimper~~~~~~~” Mo Ye whined playfully and mischievously swept Chu Mu’s face with his tail.
Under the effect of Moon Coagulation, Mo Ye’s strength should have been on par with the Wind-binding Spirit. Mo Ye, who had been fighting non-stop since the first rank first stage, made Chu Mu never doubt his victory, even when there was no more moonlight in the end.
As Chu Mu talked to Mo Ye, the Wind-binding Spirit finally landed in the center of the battlefield, lying on the ground weakly. With its black Chaos Wind eyes, it fixed its gaze on Chu Mu and Mo Ye.
Chu Mu could see its unwillingness from the eyes of the Wind-binding Spirit. It wanted to rise again, but only after the Homeless Flame Fox had shattered its body would it be impossible to stand up later.
“Now it’s up to Chu Mu’s luck,” said Ye Wansheng.
The effect of the Eighth-Level Memory Liquid wasn’t very strong. For the Wind-binding Spirit, an intermediate monarch at the eighth rank advanced stage, the success rate was only around 30%. If the Soul Pet Master’s Soul Sense is higher, or the Wind-binding Spirit’s mind is weaker, the success rate would be even greater…
In short, a 30% success rate wasn’t very promising. It indeed depended on Chu Mu’s luck.
Chu Mu knew that the Wind-binding Spirit no longer had the strength to continue fighting, so he slowly walked in front of it.
Compared to humans, the Wind-binding Spirit was relatively pet.i.te. However, having witnessed the Wind-binding Spirit’s powerful wind element skills, Chu Mu didn’t find anything inappropriate about its size. On the contrary, he thought that this body size provided more agility in battle. As could be seen from the battle, Mo Ye’s victory was a bit hard-won.
“Zzzzz~~~~~zzzzz~~~~~~” The Wind-binding Spirit made a strange sound, as if venting its anger.
Chu Mu couldn’t understand the language of elemental soul pets and could only stare into the Wind-binding Spirit’s eyes, reading its emotions from the eyes of this soul pet…
It was inevitably unwilling. Failure was hard to accept for any proud soul pet. However, Chu Mu felt that the Wind-binding Spirit’s unwillingness was not just due to its defeat against Mo Ye.
Without further thought, Chu Mu immediately recited the Soul Contract Spell, activated his completely repaired Fourth Soul Contract, and tried to capture the Wind-binding Spirit directly without the use of Memory Liquid.
The blue Soul Contract Halo slowly formed, vividly surrounding the Wind-binding Spirit’s head. The symbols and spells composed of the soul pet master’s memory and soul floated in order, as the Halo began to shrink. As long as the Halo slowly disappeard onto the soul pet’s forehead and finally branded its soul, the Soul Contract would be successful.
However, Chu Mu’s Five Thought Soul Master’s soul contract hadn’t started shrinking yet. After the Wind-binding Spirit put up a strong spiritual resistance, the Soul Contract Halo shattered into fragments, conveying a thick sense of anger and resentment to Chu Mu.
“Its emotions are far more unstable than ordinary Soul Pets. Fox Elder, should I continue?” Chu Mu sensed this feeling from the Wind-binding Spirit’s resistance.
“Proceed. These things are, to a certain extent, a matter of luck. If you’re lucky, you’ll succeed; if not, you won’t.” Fox Elder replied.
Chu Mu nodded. In fact, any Soul Pet will experience this kind of emotion after being defeated. Perhaps being a proud Intermediate Monarch, the Wind-binding Spirit is more resistant to submission and enslavement. Once its soul is cleansed with Memory Liquid, the resistance will decrease significantly.
Chu Mu took out the Eighth-Level Memory Liquid and, following Fox Elder’s instructions, first infused his Soul Sense into it.
Originally, the Eighth-Level Memory Liquid was a normal liquid. After Chu Mu infused his Soul Sense, it began to display a beautiful l.u.s.ter, exuding a strange aura…
“Now make it drink half of the Memory Liquid, then use your Soul Sense to guide the Memory Liquid into the Wind-binding Spirit’s soul for cleansing,” Fox Elder said.
Half of the Memory Liquid is used to cleanse the Soul Pet’s soul, while the other half is used to imprint the Soul Pet Master’s soul contract. Thus, the Memory Liquid soul contract signing process is divided into two steps.
Chu Mu began the first step. The Wind-binding Spirit, already exhausted, didn’t resist as he poured half of the Memory Liquid into its mouth. It watched a certain direction with its Chaos Wind-filled eyes, completely resigned to its fate.
Once the Memory Liquid entered the Wind-binding Spirit’s body, Chu Mu could feel his Soul Sense flowing within it.
Quickly, Chu Mu’s Soul Sense locked onto the Wind-binding Spirit’s weary soul, and without any hesitation, started gently cleansing it with half of the Eighth-Level Memory Liquid.
During the soul cleansing process, Chu Mu could feel the Wind-binding Spirit’s soul emit an extremely sharp cry as its memories were being erased!
Memory Erasure!
At first, the Wind-binding Spirit didn’t realize the purpose of the potion. When it felt itself forgetting, it exhibited immense pain and struggled desperately under the effects of the Memory Liquid despite being completely weak.
Chu Mu quietly stood there, his pupils becoming slightly scattered as the Memory Liquid cleansed the soul.
For some reason, Chu Mu could see some scenes being transmitted by his Soul Sense, all of them taking place in the Wind Belt.
Storms, Wind Caves, Wind Nests, Wind Belts…
In almost every scene, Chu Mu could see unfamiliar Wind Element Soul Pets flying proudly in the sky. Chu Mu’s standpoint allowed him to experience the icy, contemptuous and mocking gazes of those powerful Wind Element Soul Pets. High above and possessing extraordinary wisdom, they never considered the weak and lowly as lives.
This feeling was all too familiar to Chu Mu, as it was the constant att.i.tude of the strong ones standing at higher heights towards him on the path of becoming a Soul Pet Master…
“Are these scenes from the Wind-binding Spirit’s memories?” Chu Mu was secretly astonished. Why could he see the memories of the Wind-binding Spirit?
“Some Soul Pet Masters can see the memories being erased by the Memory Liquid while others cannot. The fact that Young Master can see the Wind-binding Spirit’s erased memories indicates that you possess a natural affinity for Soul Pets. These types of humans are superior to other Soul Pet Masters because they can establish a special spiritual communication with various creatures. Many old scholars have researched this issue, and concluded that it is related to one’s bloodline, intelligence, temperament, and soul apt.i.tude…” Fox Elder’s voice drifted out.
The memory erasure process was quick, so the majority of what Chu Mu saw were chaotic scenes that didn’t provide a clear understanding of the Wind-binding Spirit’s past.
“Young Master, you should be grateful. You belong to the rare category of Soul Pet Masters who are truly lucky. I believe this may be partly due to your father’s philosophies…” continued Fox Elder.
As Fox Elder finished speaking, Chu Mu completed the soul cleansing process for the Wind-binding Spirit. Now, all Chu Mu had to do was withdraw his Soul Sense from its body and carry away the erased memories.
“It’s done. Now withdraw your Soul Sense and pour the other half of the Memory Liquid into its soul while reciting the Soul Contract Spell. I feel that the memories of this Wind-binding Spirit have been thoroughly cleansed, and its eyes appear empty without any sign of resistance. This indicates a high probability of it signing the soul contract with you,” continued Fox Elder.
