48: Contract Saint Pill

Deep within the Fallen Phoenix Mountain Range.

In the Void Realm, Ying Yi watched the Four Fierce Beasts approach, their massive bodies shaking the entire space.

"Boom!"

"Buzz~"

As an Ancient Emperor, Ying Yi immediately unleashed a torrent of powerful Slaughter Law power from his body.

Instantly, the entire Void Realm was covered by a murderous aura, which made the already ferocious Four Fierce Beasts even more bloodthirsty.

"Roar~"

"You ant, This Lord will devour you..."

"Whoosh~"

The four beasts simultaneously transformed into afterimages, charging towards Ying Yi. Seeing this, he raised one hand, drawing in the Slaughter Law.

"Swish swish..."

In the blink of an eye, under Ying Yi's control, the Slaughter Law instantly transformed into four cages.

"Buzz~"

"Whoosh whoosh..."

"Bang bang..."

The Four Fierce Beasts had just charged, only to be trapped by the cages.

"This is bad..."

Taotie's scarlet eyes stared at the cages, which emitted a faint, dark red divine light.

"Roar~"

A furious roar echoed through heaven and earth, and then it raised its sharp claws, trying to tear them open.

"Cling..."

The cages formed by the Slaughter Law were even harder than Universe Profound Crystals; how could these Emperor-level Vicious Beasts tear them open?

The raging Four Fierce Beasts continuously struck the cages with their sharp claws, but they couldn't even leave a single mark.

"Owoo~"

Seeing that their sharp claws were ineffective, they began to continuously enlarge their bodies, hoping to burst the cages with their sheer size.

"Buzz buzz..."

Within a few breaths, four enormous, spherical Four Fierce Beasts appeared in the Void Realm.

They never expected the Law cages trapping them to be so incredibly tough.

"Roar~"

"Damn ant, if you have the guts, don't use such underhanded tricks; fight This Lord in a grand battle."

Ying Yi held a long black thread-like object in his hand; this was the Law chain connecting the four cages.

He slowly walked through the Void Realm towards where the Four Fierce Beasts were trapped. With each step he took, the cages shrank by several times.

"Buzz~ Buzz..."

"Hmm? Ant, what do you want to do?"

The Four Fierce Beasts saw the cages continuously shrinking, forcefully squeezing and deforming their bodies.

In addition to the physical pain, their Divine Souls were also being corroded by the Slaughter cages.

That kind of pain was a crushing sensation from within their Divine Souls, like being cut by a knife, or being whipped.

"Owoo~"

Tragic roars shook the heavens. The tens of millions of Vicious Beasts below, seeing their kings being abused, all howled towards the sky.

"Roar~"

"Noisy~"

Tian Kui, worried that the beast horde would disturb his Young Lord's viewing, waved his sleeve.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Countless Law-transformed swords, like a rain of swords, pierced through the air, compressed space, and charged towards the tens of millions of beasts.

"Bang bang bang..."

"Chirp chirp chirp..."

"Roar~ Roar~"

"Boom!"

Immediately, the scene descended into Chaos. Among the beast horde, some died, some fled, and the earth-shaking roars continued without end.

"Roar~ Damn ant, if you have the guts, release This Lord; I will surely devour..."

"Ah, owoo~"

These words were spoken by Qiongqi, but before it could finish, another whipping pain came from within its Divine Soul.

"Release you? Hmph~ If Your Highness didn't want you alive, let alone that you are only at the Great Emperor level now.

Even if it were in the past, when you weren't suppressed by that little Phoenix, you wouldn't have been able to withstand a single move from This Venerable One."

Ying Yi arrived in the middle of the four cages. The Four Fierce Beasts were now compressed by the cages to the size of monkeys, held in his hand.

Taotie's underarm eye glanced at Ying Yi, sensing that this person was indeed not someone they could contend with now.

"Who exactly are you?"

When this question was asked, even Feng Haoran, who was watching from the side, perked up his ears, wanting to see how he would answer.

Ying Yi suddenly paused. The eyes behind his mask rotated continuously. However, at this moment, a voice from deep within his heart told him:

"You are merely an assassin by my son's side."

"I... am merely an assassin by Your Highness's side..."

As soon as these words fell, Tian Kui, who was in the distance, lowered his raised hand.

Because Ying Yi's previous pause made him think that he had broken free from his master's control.

However, he had overthought it. How could anyone break free from Feng Qianjue's control?

As long as he didn't die, Ying Yi would never be able to recover in this life; otherwise, how would he dare to let him stay by his son's side?

"What? Such a powerful being is merely someone else's assassin... Impossible..."

Taotie, Qiongqi, and the other Four Fierce Beasts couldn't believe it. One must know that they, too, were Ancient Emperors in their time.

But facing an Ancient Emperor of such power, they simply couldn't muster the will to resist.

Especially the Slaughter power emanating from this person, which was even greater than theirs.

"You talk... too much. This Venerable One will ask one question, and if the answer is unsatisfactory, you know the consequences.

This Venerable One wants you... to become the mounts of those by Your Highness's side. Are you willing?"

"Roar~"

"Let This Lord become an ant's mount? Impossible..."

"Owoo~"

"Roar~"

Before they could finish speaking, a stabbing pain came from their Divine Souls. Although their bodies were small now, their voices shook the heavens.

The four Vicious Beasts rolled on the ground in their cages, continuously roaring.

"Roar~ Damn it, We are Chaos Vicious Beasts; how can we be reduced to someone else's mounts?

If you push This Lord too far, do you believe We will self-detonate right now?"

"It seems... you are still too comfortable..."

As soon as Ying Yi finished speaking, he instantly exerted force on the hand holding the Law iron chain.

"Buzz~"

The four miniature cages immediately emitted a dark red divine light.

"Roar... Owoo~"

"Roar~"

The excruciating pain from within their Divine Souls made them continuously roar.

In the distance, Feng Yukong, Jing Zhan, Xing Chen, and Zi Yuan looked towards Feng Haoran.

"Your Highness, perhaps we should just give up. Such Vicious Beasts are not so easily subdued."

Feng Haoran saw the four people's gazes and at this moment, he also considered giving up.

After all, they were Vicious Beasts. If they submitted now, there might be unforeseen problems in the future.

Although they possessed powerful strength, if they were disobedient, it would be counterproductive.

As he was deep in thought, just as Ying Yi was about to suppress them, the System's voice rang out.

"Ding! The System has detected that the host cares about his subordinates' mounts and rewards four Contract Saint Pills.

This pill only requires a drop of the subjugator's essence blood to be fused. If the Four Fierce Beasts consume it,

From then on, the master and beast will be connected in mind, and for this life, they will be loyal to their master and never betray them."

"Haha... System, you did well this time; you didn't let This Lord lose face."

Feng Haoran had sworn earlier that he would help them suppress the beasts, making them feel at ease.

He almost lost face, but thankfully the System appeared to help.

"Ding! The dog will never hold its master back, always upholding the Law of 'Master First'."

"Good, good, good... You are the most loyal, hurry and extract the Contract Saint Pills."

"Buzz~"

Feng Haoran flipped his hand, and four blood-colored Saint Pills appeared in his palm.

"Yukun, Jing Zhan, Xing Chen, Zi Yuan, each of you take one.

Drip a drop of your essence blood onto it, then take it and feed it to the Vicious Beast you prefer."

"Yes, Emperor Lord."

None of the four hesitated. Each took a pill, dripped their essence blood onto it, and then flew to the Vicious Beasts that were still rolling on the ground.

Ying Yi looked towards Feng Haoran's side, and seeing him nod, he stopped whipping the Four Fierce Beasts' Divine Souls.

"Roar..."

The Four Fierce Beasts felt their Divine Souls no longer in pain, but their bodies were still twitching. One by one, they whimpered like dead dogs.

Yukun and the others seized this opportune moment.

"We understand your arrogance, but the world says it's better to live a shameful life than to die a glorious one.

Moreover, as our mounts, you will not lose out. Our Feng Clan is an existence that all beings look up to.

Our Your Highness is even more extraordinary; he possesses a Forbidden Celestial Body. When he matures, breaking through this Universe is only a matter of time.

I believe this won't be too long. At that time, if you follow us and fight together into the outer heavens, wouldn't that be better than dying?"

Yukun's words, after being heard by the abused Four Fierce Beasts, suddenly made some sense to them.

What's more, among these beings, there was even a legendary Physique. At that time, their return to Chaos would be just around the corner.

The Four Fierce Beasts' gazes turned towards Feng Haoran's direction, seeing the Baize beneath him.

Their hearts instantly understood everything. Then they withdrew their gazes and spoke to the people beside them in weak voices.

"Alright, We are willing to submit..."

Yukun, Jing Zhan, and the others exchanged smiles and handed over the Medicinal Pills in their hands.

"Eat it. It can repair the damage your Divine Souls just sustained."

The Four Fierce Beasts didn't hesitate, opening their mouths and devouring the Contract Pill.

"Buzz~"

Immediately, their bodies glowed with golden light, eventually transforming into a star-shaped needle.

"Buzz~ Whoosh~"

The star-shaped needle gradually shrank, finally disappearing into their glabella.

And at this moment, what the Four Fierce Beasts were thinking, Yukun and the others also knew.

Now, they couldn't even harbor any rebellious thoughts towards their masters.

"Masters~"

The Four Fierce Beasts simultaneously prostrated themselves before Yukun and the others, showing their sincere submission.

"Alright, Senior Ying Yi..."

Ying Yi looked at Feng Haoran, and seeing him nod, he withdrew the Slaughter cages.

"Buzz~"

Jing Zhan was extremely excited at this moment. He only had the cultivation of an Immortal Saint King, but his mount was now an Eighth Level of Great Emperor Chaos beast.

Xing Chen was also like this; he excitedly looked at the Ninth Level Great Emperor Taotie beside him.

Yukun chose Qiongqi, also at the Ninth Level Great Emperor, while Zi Yuan chose Taowu, at the Eighth Level of Great Emperor.

The strength of the four individuals was not far apart, and the strength of the four beasts was similarly not far apart.

"Haha... This makes everyone happy."
