Chapter 148: Chapter 148: Sacrifice: 400% Boost!
Under Aster Grant’s nearly frenzied gaze, the heart of the Monarch Level Demon Clan member suddenly tightened.
This human...
Actually made him feel like he was being targeted by an ancient vicious beast, causing his blood to stagnate.
But in a moment, he suppressed the unease in his heart.
Ridiculous...
The person before him was clearly just a Commander Tier Two ant.
No matter how unparalleled his talent, it was simply impossible to possess power that rivaled a monarch at the Commander Tier!
However—
When his peripheral vision caught sight of the divine pattern on Aster’s brow, his pupils abruptly shrank into needles.
"Divine Pattern?!"
His lips involuntarily curled into a bloodthirsty smile.
"This saves me a lot of effort!"
In front of Lythos.
Chloe Grant gazed up at the familiar figure in the sky, her beautiful eyes suddenly widened.
"Little Star?!"
She distinctly remembered that her brother should still be in the Sacred Beastbond Pool, how could he suddenly appear on the battlefield?
Just then.
Vera controlled the vines to gently lower Crystal Winslow, soaked in the Spring of Life, to her.
Following was Aster Grant’s voice, suppressed to the extreme:
"Sis, I beg you!"
Chloe Grant looked down at the unconscious Crystal Winslow, the girl’s pale face causing her heart to tighten, and she nodded heavily.
But after protecting Crystal in her arms, Chloe’s gaze fell on the Monarch Level Demon Clan in the sky.
After hesitating for a moment, she still didn’t stop Aster from leaving.
She didn’t know when, but the brother who always followed behind her had long surpassed her.
The current Aster Grant had grown to a height she could hardly reach.
Even against Monarch Level Demon Clan...
She firmly believed Aster could win.
If it really came to the worst...
Then the two siblings could just die together today!
Above the sky.
Aster Grant felt as though his sea of consciousness was repeatedly pierced by a thousand steel needles.
This pain...
Usually, when activating the soul-devouring state, it would also put pressure on the spirit, but it was never as agonizing as now.
The special state of the soul-devouring talent activated at this moment...
His spiritual power became incomparably violent!
Controlling it was extremely difficult!
Looking at the Life Tree Leaves left behind after Sally’s sacrifice.
Aster reached out trembling, firmly clutching this leaf.
Sally...
This was her only remaining legacy.
The conditions to trigger the soul-devouring sacrifice were extremely harsh.
He once attempted to randomly contract a beastbond for sacrifice, but failed.
After countless studies, he finally understood:
To complete the sacrifice, three conditions must be met simultaneously—
Firstly, it must be an officially contracted beastbond; temporary contracts are invalid;
Secondly, the beastbond’s bloodline must come from the top tier race;
Thirdly, and the most demanding...the beastbond’s feelings for him must reach an unwavering degree of loyalty.
But...
Why...why was it Sally...
Aster’s hand, gripping the golden leaf, continued to tremble.
He had imagined countless times whether he would use this talent in dire situations, but he never had an answer.
He couldn’t accept losing any contract partner.
But now...
Facing the true dire situation, Sally sacrificed herself before him.
When Sally, trembling amidst the blood flames, spoke those words with a trembling voice.
"Master Aster, may I call you master?"
At that moment, he felt as if his heart was fiercely clenched, making it difficult to breathe.
His little maid sacrificing...
Aster’s body continuously trembled, his fingers embedding into his palm due to the force.
Clearly, Sally was neither his beastbond nor from a top-tier race, yet...
How could she meet the conditions for sacrifice?!
Feeling the Life Tree Leaves in his hand...
Suddenly, his mind recalled the second part of the prophecy Sally had mentioned.
Prophecy?!
Could it be that the Elf Queen foresaw today a thousand years ago?!
If so, why not leave a solution?!
Why did the cat clan have to sacrifice?!
A series of unanswered questions swirled in his mind.
But no one could give him the answers!
He trembled as he returned the golden leaf to the Beastbond Space, slowly raising his blood-red eyes, fiercely locking onto the Monarch Level Demon Clan before him.
But no matter what...
This demon clan—
Must die!
"Lazuli, Veridia!"
Aster’s voice exploded in the wind.
The eyes of the two spirit beasts burned with overwhelming fury.
It was their first time facing the fall of a companion!
No need for any command—
"Ghost King’s Body!"
"Doomsday Angel Form!"
At the moment of their transformation, Aster’s blood-red spiritual power surged down like a tide, enveloping them completely.
400% full attribute amplification!
Under the stack of multiple states, the breaths of the two spirit beasts surged, breaking through limits in an instant!
[Ghost Race (Veridia)]
[Level: Commander Tier Two]
[Talent: Myth Five Stars]
[Strength: 15000→90000]
[Constitution: 14000→84000]
[Spiritual: 13000→78000]
[Speed: 14000→84000]
[Skills: Ghost Race Four Techniques, Ghost King’s Body, Returning Ruins, Ghost King Domain]
[Special State: Twin Resonance!]
With the 1.5x attribute bonus of Ghost King’s Body and the 400% increase from the sacrifice...
Veridia’s strength attribute directly reached 90000 points!
This terrifying figure was already infinitely close to the Demon King Level before him.
Black ghost qi crazily gathered above Veridia’s head, gradually forming a sky-covering ghost king phantom.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Lazuli also completed her transformation.
The Ultimate Fire surged like a tide, covering her entire body, and twelve flaming wings suddenly unfolded.
The raging Ultimate Fire poured down from the wings, instantly turning the ground into a sea of fire.
[Divine Angel (Lazuli)]
[Talent: Myth Five Stars]
[Level: Commander Tier Two]
[Strength: 15000→180000]
[Constitution: 15000→180000]
[Spiritual: 15000→180000]
[Speed: 15000→180000]
[Skills: Blazing Angel Form, Doomsday Angel Form, Blazing Burn, Celestial Fire Domain]
[Special State: Oath Guardian]
After breaking through Commander Tier Two, Lazuli’s basic attributes had soared to 15000 points.
At this moment, under the dual enhancement of Doomsday Angel Form and the sacrificial state...
Her various attributes astonishingly broke through the 180000 point barrier, officially stepping into the Monarch Domain!
The surrounding space began to distort and shatter, unable to control Lazuli’s power.
Even though the power of the two spirit beasts had already reached their peak, Aster did not dare to relax even a bit.
Demon King Level Demon Clan...
All possessed the "Demon King’s Body" skill.
Which could significantly enhance their attributes.
As a Monarch Level Demon Clan, this enhancement was even more terrifying.
Just as Aster expected.
Even feeling the imposing aura of the two spirit beasts.
This Monarch Level Demon King remained calm under pressure.
Instinctively trying to unleash domain suppression, he was horrified to discover—
Domain... failed?!
Aster synchronized the activation of the Second Domain the moment he initiated the sacrifice.
Realizing the domain failed, the demon clan’s gaze finally became solemn.
This human...
Seemed far more dangerous than that human race girl before...
