Beast Taming: Slaughter Atlas-Chapter 567 - 511: Subduing the Soul Suppressing Pearl
Chu Chen couldn’t help but show a trace of distress, but this was not the time to worry, for the Soul Suppressing Pearl was emitting a blinding earth-colored light, with a faint gray-white color emerging from its center.
"Not good, the Soul Suppressing Master is recovering. Lei Yao, come quickly to help suppress it." Chu Chen said urgently.
Lei Yao suddenly opened its mouth, and the blood remaining on the ground instantly surged into it, and its injuries were rapidly healing.
After doing all this, its figure flickered and appeared in front of the Soul Suppressing Pearl, raising its paw in a virtual grab, the thick Star Power directly covering the Pearl, instantly dissipating the gray-white gathering around.
Seeing this, Chu Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he dared not delay, and quickly stepped towards the Soul Suppressing Pearl.
The ruins here were collapsing and would completely crumble soon; he had to leave before that happened, or he might be trapped forever.
Just as Chu Chen came close to the Soul Suppressing Pearl, it seemed to sense the danger, and an invisible energy swept around.
Chu Chen’s pupils suddenly contracted, thinking it bad; at such a close distance, there was no time to evade.
He only felt his soul being directly oppressed by a towering mountain, instantly losing focus, his body softened and collapsed on the ground.
Lei Yao’s situation wasn’t much better than Chu Chen’s, just persisting for a breath before collapsing on the ground.
Zhao Qingzhu saw the situation and immediately retreated, urgently saying, "Quickly use Divine Purification."
Die Wu immediately snapped back to reality upon hearing this and dared not delay, promptly executing two Divine Purifications.
As two holy lights descended, two muffled grunts came from both the person and the beast.
The Soul Suppressing Power of the Soul Suppressing Pearl was far beyond that of the Soul Suppressing Master, and its power continued to be released; Divine Purification was just a drop in the bucket.
Clutching his head, Chu Chen forcibly got up and quickly instructed Die Wu, "Keep using Divine Purification." Then he bit his index finger and slowly reached for the Soul Suppressing Pearl.
Just as he was about to touch the Soul Suppressing Pearl, it suddenly shook and a Soul Suppressing Power multiple times stronger than before surged from within.
Chu Chen let out a miserable scream, his expression once again dazed, his body went soft and collapsed again.
Seeing this, Die Wu immediately gave a delicate cry, and a rich Holy Light directly fell on both the person and the beast.
"Roar"
Lei Yao let out a roar of anger, its Star Power turning into a large hand that directly grabbed the Soul Suppressing Pearl, greatly diminishing the Soul Suppressing Power.
Chu Chen hurriedly got up and called out to Nirvana and the other beasts, "Come over and help, Die Wu, do your part next."
Upon hearing this, Die Wu dared not hesitate, allowing Holy Light to flash separately on Nirvana and the other beasts.
Not daring to delay, they rushed to the front of the Soul Suppressing Pearl, the dense Star Power layered upon it for protection.
For a moment, the Soul Suppressing Power was firmly suppressed.
Chu Chen only felt a lightness in his head and immediately regained clarity; without delay, he got up and began to carve the Blood Covenant.
The Soul Suppressing Pearl felt the crisis and struggled even more violently, with the Soul Suppressing Power becoming incredibly strong.
Lei Yao and the other beasts issued low growls, pouring all their Star Power into the Soul Suppressing Pearl, pressing it down hard. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Knowing the situation was urgent, Chu Chen took a deep breath to calm his emotions, his hands moving faster.
As time passed, the surrounding air seemed to freeze.
The breathing of the seven Guardian Beasts grew heavier, and Die Wu was exhausted, slumping on the ground, unable to move.
Chu Chen had no time to check the state of the Guardian Beasts, his fingers flying as one intricate rune after another appeared on the surface of the Soul Suppressing Pearl.
After a few breaths, Chu Chen’s finger suddenly stopped, then he shouted, "Bind."
As Chu Chen’s words fell, the blood-colored rune suddenly emitted a strange blood-red light, enveloping the Soul Suppressing Pearl.
The Soul Suppressing Pearl continued to tremble, the Soul Suppressing Power reaching unprecedented strength.
At this point, the blood-red light became blinding, accompanied by a buzzing sound; the struggling Soul Suppressing Pearl was directly suppressed, and the Soul Suppressing Power vanished without a trace.
Lei Yao and the other beasts suddenly felt a significant reduction in pressure; they quickly withdrew their soul power, panting heavily, with Lei Yao collapsing on the ground from fatigue.
The side effects of using their trump cards kicked in simultaneously, leaving Lei Yao, who was already exhausted, even more weakened.
Seeing this, Chu Chen quickly took out two porcelain bottles from his chest, extracting several Elixir Pills and stuffing them into the mouths of the Guardian Beasts.
These were the Healing Pill and Star Power Pill Chu Chen had prepared in advance from the Spatial Ring, as a precaution, though he hadn’t expected to actually need them.
After taking the Elixir Pills, Chu Chen quickly instructed, "Refine them quickly; we may need to act again in a while."
The beasts’ expressions changed upon hearing this, and they quickly lay down on the ground, beginning to refine the medicinal power.
At this moment, the blood-colored rune was contending with the Soul Suppressing Pearl, with the Soul Suppressing Power continuously impacting the rune, which in turn desperately attempted to suppress it.
As time passed, the blood-red light gradually dimmed, while the Soul Suppressing Pearl, like an indomitable warrior, increased its assault strength.
Seeing this, Chu Chen’s face immediately sank, and he quickly asked Zhao Qingzhu, "Is there a possibility for the Blood Covenant to fail?"
Zhao Qingzhu shook her head and replied in a low voice, "I’m also not sure; the ancient texts didn’t mention it, but the Blood Covenant should be similar to the Soul Covenant, it may have a failure rate."
Looking at the collapsing ruins, Chu Chen couldn’t help but shake his head, "Prepare to leave, if the Blood Covenant fails, we’ll leave immediately." Saying so, he directed the beasts to collect all the severely injured Soul Suppressing Beasts into the Beast Taming Ring.
At this moment, the blood-colored rune once again burst out with blinding blood-red light, then the blood light turned into a bloodline shooting straight at Chu Chen’s forehead.
Seeing this, Chu Chen’s expression suddenly changed; he intended to dodge but it was too late; everything was too sudden, even Lei Yao and the other beasts couldn’t stop it in time.
The bloodline directly entered Chu Chen’s forehead, but that wasn’t its final destination; instead, it burrowed all the way into his Soul Sea.
Soul Power continuously flowed along the bloodline towards the blood-colored rune, gradually reviving the dimmed blood-red light.
The speed at which the bloodline drew Soul Power was incredibly fast; within a few breaths, Chu Chen’s Soul Sea fell by a tenth.
"Are you okay?" Zhao Qingzhu asked worriedly.
Chu Chen gravely replied, "The bloodline is drawing my Soul Power at an extremely fast speed; if I can’t completely suppress the Soul Suppressing Pearl soon, I might be in danger."
Hearing this, Lei Yao and the other beasts immediately became anxious, issuing a low roar intending to gather Elemental Power to destroy the Soul Suppressing Pearl.
Chu Chen quickly stopped them, saying, "Wait a little longer."
He still wanted to hold on; after expending so much effort, he couldn’t bear to return empty-handed.
Hearing this, Lei Yao and the other beasts stopped but prepared to act.
It was uncertain whether the Soul Suppressing Pearl felt the threat or ran out of energy.
Within a few breaths, the Soul Suppressing Pearl lost its ability to resist, and the speed of the bloodline’s absorption of Soul Power slowed down.
The blood-colored rune gradually contracted, finally completely enveloping the Soul Suppressing Pearl.
It seemed like forming a Blood Covenant, but more like some kind of sealing.
"Could it be that Zhao Qingzhu gave me a seal instead of a Blood Covenant."
As Chu Chen pondered, the Soul Suppressing Pearl suddenly exploded with a burst of blood-red light, then directly aimed at Chu Chen’s forehead.
This time the speed of the Soul Suppressing Pearl was several times faster than the bloodline; before Chu Chen could react, it had already dashed into his Soul Sea.
At this moment, Chu Chen was no longer suppressed by the Soul Suppressing Stone; he could mobilize his own Soul Power, and it seemed that he was tightly connected to the Soul Suppressing Pearl by a line.
"Boom!"
A loud noise echoed, and a large boulder fell, followed by a second, and a third.
"This is bad, it’s going to collapse, we must leave immediately." Chu Chen exclaimed in alarm.
