462: Strong enemy attacks

In the vast sea of fire, two thunder dragons were tightly entanglement around the Flame Tiger Emperor's body.

Although the Flame Tiger Emperor's aura had weakened, he was still struggling relentlessly, likely not to die anytime soon.

Qin Shilei had dragged on for too long, fearing something might have happened on the Mountain and Rivers Map side. After a moment of thought, he once again cast a spell.

Thunderous Nine Heavens!

A lightning bolt as thick as a bucket descended from the sky, forcefully striking the Flame Tiger Emperor's neck.

Boom!

Even though Qin Shilei had intentionally controlled the power of Thunderous Nine Heavens, this lightning bolt still blew away a small part of the Flame Tiger Emperor's neck.

Blood gushed out like a fountain.

The Flame Tiger Emperor immediately stopped struggling and fell straight to the ground.

Qin Shilei quickly caught up and grabbed him, lifting him up.

At this moment, An Qian also flew back, holding a phantom contract grimoire.

"Quick, any later and I fear he might die."

An Qian thought for a moment, summoned her pet, the Wind Demon King, and chose to release her contract with it.

After watching the Wind Demon King fly away, she took out a purple contract scroll, activated it, and threw it towards the Flame Tiger Emperor that Qin Shilei held in his hand.

The phantom contract grimoire in her hand simultaneously shot a white light towards the Flame Tiger Emperor.

With the help of the contract scroll, An Qian's spiritual power penetrated deep into the Flame Tiger Emperor's spiritual sea, preparing to brand a master-servant mark deep in his soul.

"Roar!"

The previously unconscious Flame Tiger Emperor suddenly woke up, and raging flames once again erupted from his body, quickly spreading towards Qin Shilei.

"Stay still for me."

Qin Shilei took out the Giant Que Sword and quickly stabbed the Flame Tiger Emperor.

The fiercely struggling Flame Tiger Emperor instantly stiffened.

Perhaps it was the efficacy of the phantom contract grimoire, or perhaps the exotic beasts of this world were easier to be taken as pets.

Ten seconds later, An Qian had successfully taken this Flame Tiger Emperor as her pet.

Qin Shilei immediately took out more than a dozen bottles of healing potions and poured them all onto the wound on the Flame Tiger Emperor's neck.

After a simple treatment, An Qian temporarily recalled the Flame Tiger Emperor into her pet space.

Then she took out several bottles of spiritual potions, uncapped them, and drank them in one gulp.

"Are you alright?" Qin Shilei asked with concern.

"I'm fine, just a bit too much spiritual power consumed," An Qian shook her head.

Qin Shilei considerately stepped forward, hugged her, and flew back towards the mountaintop.

Boom!

Just then, a huge impact sound suddenly came from the mountaintop.

"You go back first, I'm fine," An Qian said with a worried expression.

"It should be fine, Qing Shu has already released that Qilin," Qin Shilei increased his speed again.

Upon reaching the mountaintop, they saw a phantom of a Qilin chasing and violently beating a Snow Spirit Horse.

Kong Qingshu, Zhang Xiaoli, and Zhang Qiang were also fending off three Snow Spirit Horses of Platinum Realm and above.

On the ground lay the corpse of a Platinum Nine-star Snow Spirit Horse, which was likely slain by Zhang Xiaoli's sword talisman.

"Qing Shu, control that Qilin, don't kill that Snow Spirit Horse!"

Qin Shilei shouted to Kong Qingshu, then instantly teleported beside a Platinum Seven-star Snow Spirit Horse, and with a few sword strikes, he brought it to a near death state.

He threw the heavily injured Snow Spirit Horse into the Blessed Land, and then, using the same method, he also heavily injured the remaining two Snow Spirit Horses and threw them into his space.

At this moment, the Qilin had already heavily injured the Diamond Eight-star Snow Spirit Horse and was about to open its mouth to spew flames and burn it to death.

Kong Qingshu used the summoning token to disperse the Qilin in time.

The dying Snow Spirit Horse immediately fell straight down from mid-air.

Zhang Xiaoli, receiving Qin Shilei's signal, quickly sent out vines to entangle it, suspending it in mid-air.

"Where's Mary?" Qin Shilei scanned around but didn't find Mary.

"Just now, two Diamond Realm Snow Spirit Horses appeared in total. Mary voluntarily took on one of them. She used the contract grimoire to take the Snow Spirit Horse, but she herself fell into a coma as a result. Luckily, Sister Qingshu rescued her in time, otherwise, falling from such a height, she would have been severely injured if not dead."

Zhang Xiaoli pointed to the Golden Winged Thunder Roc flying above, indicating that Mary had been placed on it.

"I'll go check on her. The two of you discuss who wants to take this Snow Spirit Horse as a pet."

After Qin Shilei finished speaking, he flew up to the back of the Golden Winged Thunder Roc.

Mary was lying among the soft feathers, and two water-element ability users were continuously casting healing spells on her.

"I'll do it."

Qin Shilei dismissed the two Night members, took out a bottle of purple spiritual potion, and fed it to Mary.

After a while, Mary finally slowly woke up.

"Ah!" She cried out, clutching her forehead as soon as she woke up.

"You likely had insufficient spiritual power but forced the use of the contract grimoire to contract a Diamond Realm exotic beast, leading to a spiritual backlash. It's fortunate that your contract grimoire was powerful enough not to turn you into an idiot."

Qin Shilei reprimanded her with a cold face, then handed her another bottle of purple spiritual potion.

"You were so late in returning. If I hadn't acted, I fear your woman and subordinates would all have died. What would you have done then, coming to settle accounts with me, your ally?"

Mary snorted weakly but didn't take the spiritual potion.

"It's my fault. I thought you were greedy for a powerful pet and overestimated yourself by forcibly contracting a Diamond Realm exotic beast. Drink this spiritual potion quickly, or you'll really turn into an idiot."

Qin Shilei twisted open the cap and directly poured the spiritual potion into her mouth.

After drinking another bottle of spiritual potion, Mary's face finally regained some color.

"What about the other Diamond Realm Snow Spirit Horse?"

Qin Shilei replied, "I've already captured it. I was just about to ask you for another phantom contract grimoire."

Mary took out her contract grimoire, and after inputting spiritual power, a phantom contract grimoire quickly appeared before them.

"Hmph!"

Mary, still recovering from her injuries, couldn't help but let out a muffled groan from using her spiritual power again.

Qin Shilei thought for a moment, then took out another bottle of purple spiritual potion from his Qiankun Ring, preparing to feed it to Mary.

"No need, I'll just use ability beads or green spiritual potions. Don't waste such a precious spiritual potion."

Mary gently shook her head, took out a green bottle from her spatial ring, uncapped it, and drank it in one gulp.

"Take it, just take it." Qin Shilei unceremoniously shoved the precious purple spiritual potion into her hand.

The purple spiritual potion, even for him, was an extremely precious single-use potion.

One bottle, and even someone as powerful as him could recover half of his spiritual power within five minutes.

After giving away another bottle, he only had three bottles left in his hand.

If strong enemies were to attack again soon, it might be slightly insufficient.

"You rest here, I'll be back shortly."

Qin Shilei used his vital energy to pick up the phantom contract grimoire and flew down towards Zhang Xiaoli and the others.
