The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 816 - 331: A Series of Disasters_2

"Phew, we made it through another ordeal."

Ye Yin, reactivating his sensory organs, slowly came to.

After confirming everything was mostly okay, he breathed a sigh of relief, though fear still lurked in his eyes.

"How is Mo? He didn’t explode, did he?"

"No, at the critical moment, I interrupted its absorption," Ye Hanjun shook his head.

"That’s good, that’s really good."

Ye Yin patted his chest, his emotions gradually stabilizing.

Clearly, he feared the Great Disaster Demon Curse Body more than the Magnetic Field Storm.

Under the storm, one might be injured or maimed.

But the Great Disaster Demon Curse Body attacked nearby living beings indiscriminately—it was a deadly disaster, potentially annihilating everyone!

"Hiss..."

The snake’s head, blood frothing from its mouth, widened its snake’s eyes, which were streaked with blood.

The condition of Lion Head wasn’t much better. Although it wasn’t bleeding, its spirit was sapped, a rare sight to behold.

"Big Tadpole, Yang Xiaoqi and She Xiaoxiong seem unable to shut off their sensors; they endured the impact of the Magnetic Field Storm!" GuaGua, transforming back into a Bodhi Frog from its jade state, exclaimed marvelously:

"Eh, Little Lazy Lion is almost uninjured just like us?"

"Out of the three heads, it’s actually the smartest, gifted with an amazing talent for mimicry?"

"Roar... puff... roar... puff..."

Little Lazy Lion, sound asleep, faintly heard someone calling it and shook its head, pretending not to hear.

But under the gaze of several pairs of eyes, it suddenly threw up a large blob of saliva, its eyes popped open, and it roared furiously.

"Roar!!!"

Like the sky collapsing and the earth splitting, its roar turned into thunder pouring into their ears.

Ye Hanjun and Ye Yin both groaned, visibly shaken by the force.

They looked horrified and could not understand why Little Lazy Lion was agitated when the disaster seemed past.

The next moment, Lion Head and Snake Head also raised their heads to the sky and let out deafening cries that left everyone blank with shock.

"Boom, boom, boom!!!"

Blood surged like rivers into the sea, tumultuous and raging.

The Chimera cub’s body grew inch by inch, reaching a size of one hundred fifty meters from head to tail in a blink, the three heads growing as large as drums—each with its distinct demeanor: one majestic without anger, one lively, and one fierce.

"Evolved?"

Ye Hanjun’s mouth fell open, his eyes bewildered,

Soon, he snapped out of it, his face reflecting realization.

After all, the Chimera cub wasn’t from any ordinary Supreme Saint lineage but possessed the most pure-blooded direct descent of the Supreme Saint.

Such a bloodline could inherently be the Holy Saint Embryo, beginning with extreme might.

If not, even if its status fell, its growth would still progress far quicker than normal creatures, rapidly raising its status by several or even dozens of times until it returned to its original bloodline strength.

"Hiss!!"

The Snake Head, which had seemed rather pitiable just a moment ago, now surged with vitality due to a minor increase in status, healing most of its internal and external hidden injuries.

It buzzed with excitement, its cries bold, as if it could contend with the heavens and earth.

Ye Hanjun, who was just feeling happy for them, suddenly heard a crisp snapping sound, his smile instantly freezing.

"Crack... snap... boom!!"

Wood splintered, and the ship’s hull cracked.

From fracture to total explosion, the entire process took less than ten seconds.

In a frantic rush, Ye Hanjun pressed the Passage Order against the Chimera cub’s belly, grabbed the handsome merman with one hand, and grasped Ye Yin with the other.

The agile GuaGua acted on its own, stepping on his shoulder to rebalance itself.

"Plop!!"

Like a meteorite hitting the water, a massive sound echoed, black water splashing high.

Looking again, most of the Chimera cub’s body was submerged in Nether Water, only the high-positioned Lion Head and the long-necked Snake Head emerged first.

"Glug, glug, glug..."

After swallowing several mouthfuls of Nether Water, enough to explode a Heaven and Earth Stage creature, Lion Head suddenly burst out of the water, fully alert.

It looked bewildered, not understanding what had just happened.

Wasn’t it sleeping soundly? How did the ship suddenly break, and why was it now a soggy lion?

"A series of sudden calamities..."

Ye Yin swallowed, struggling to calm his rapid breathing.

The severity of their current situation needed no explanation.

The two men and several beasts were all standing on the back of the Chimera cub.

And the Chimera cub, not adept at swimming, barely floated on the water’s surface, courtesy of the miraculous effect of the Passage Order, with a constant risk of sinking.

"We’re doomed, the ship is gone?"

"The little fish just experienced the largest Magnetic Field Storm of his life, and now we’re plunged into Nether Water... one disaster follows another, must it be so perilous?"

Holding his head, the handsome mermaid let out another wail of despair.

"How long until we reach the nearest mermaid tribe?" Ye Hanjun asked sternly.

Stopping his wailing, the handsome mermaid calculated while pinching his fingers:

"Due to the storm, we’ve veered off the original course."

"The nearest tribe should be the ’Faceless Mermaids,’ and finding them would take at least half a month."

"It’s over... it’s all over; this Passage Order, when fully charged, could last ten years,"

"Given the remaining energy isn’t sufficient, hastily granting it to this fierce beast is equivalent to overclocking; we likely won’t make it in time..."

"Stop being gloomy."

Ye Hanjun chided, then turned to Ye Yin to discuss:

"Didn’t expect the disaster would come in this form."
