115: Chapter 115 SSR-level [Spirit Beast Contract] Superpower! Like a mythical golden crow descending to earth?

The next moment, Norbu waved his arm again, and ice cones shot out from his wrist.

"— — Screech!"

The Golden Eagle sensed danger and let out a high-pitched cry. Its shimmering golden wings flapped, and like a fighter jet, it instantly dodged the incoming ice cones.

These ice cones were no ordinary objects; they were formed from Norbu's Ice-type Fusion ability and possessed a terrifying, life-tracking nature!

Under his gaze, the ice cones followed the Golden Eagle's movements. In the blink of an eye, they pierced through the air current and struck the Golden Eagle's body.

A touch of human-like fear appeared in the Golden Eagle's sharp eyes. An energy protective layer urgently surged from its powerful body, but it was too late.

Crack— — Bang!

Before the protective layer could even form, it was shattered into fragments by the first few ice cones that arrived, exploding and disappearing completely.

"Pfft!"

Having lost its Transcendent energy protective layer and hovering near the ground, the Golden Eagle was no different from a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Soon, it was pierced by the subsequent ice cones, its wings injured.

Drops of bright red blood, radiating powerful vitality, flowed from its wounds and fell to the ground, where they were completely absorbed by the vegetation to nourish their own growth.

"Screech!"

The Golden Eagle cried out in pain, flapping its injured wings as it tried to escape, unwilling to engage in close-quarters combat with this terrifying youth.

"Little Eagle, give up the struggle."

Seizing the opportunity, Norbu leaped up, formed a fist with his right hand, and headed straight for the Golden Eagle's position.

Boom!

A shimmering ice-colored energy halo erupted from Norbu's fist, resembling an immensely compressed iceberg that froze the surrounding air to a standstill!

The force of this punch also carried a terrifying piercing power, directly blasting the Golden Eagle's body down from mid-air and creating an eight-meter-deep crater in the lush, grassy ground!

"Woo..."

Norbu landed steadily on the ground, shook his fist, and looked with satisfaction at the Golden Eagle in the crater, which was whimpering in pain.

He knew how to control his strength and hadn't severely injured the Golden Eagle; he only caused it to temporarily lose its ability to fly so he could complete his "Spirit Beast Contract Ritual"!

That's right, at the beginning of the great changes in the world and the Spiritual Energy Revival, Norbu had awakened two Innate abilities!

Besides that, he had also signed up for the Luck Competition, wanting to compete in the future against Prodigies from within the Eastern territory and even across the globe!

Norbu was in no rush to contract the Golden Eagle. With a thought, he looked at his personal panel in front of him:

[Name: Norbu] [Abilities: Ice Flame Nine Calamities (Prototype), Spirit Beast Contract (Prototype)] [ID: 0249911] [Luck: 1] [Race: Human] [Strength: 27] [Agility: 26] [Physique: 26] [Mental Energy: 28] [Overall Life Rating: E] ...

[Ice Flame Nine Calamities] Ice-Fire Fusion-type SR-Grade Innate Ability. Ability Seed Color: Ice Amber. This ability is relatively difficult to grow and requires Ice-type and Fire-type Spiritual Plants to assist in Cultivation. Once it grows, each calamity brings a new level of power, possessing the terrifying effect of attacking the Physical Body and burning the Soul.

[Spirit Beast Contract] Fusion-type SSR-Grade Innate Ability. Ability Seed Color: Purple-Gold. An extremely rare top-tier Fusion-type ability; it is an ability talent with the mysterious effects of the three Prajna-type elements: 'Desire', 'Dream', and 'Illusion'. It can establish a bond between oneself and a beast, used to contract helpers for joint combat.

The contract is divided into three types: Refinement Contract (Refines the beast into a Puppet without any self-awareness; the contractor can share the Puppet's sensory perception and remotely control the Puppet. The Puppet cannot grow on its own and requires massive consumption of spiritual resources to undergo metamorphosis.), Servant Contract (Establishes a master-servant relationship with the beast; the contracted beast's growth foundation will be restricted, and its future potential will be limited.), and Pet Beast Contract (Establishes an equal relationship with the beast; it is the best choice for joint combat and Cultivating and growing together. In certain extreme situations, the Pet Beast can consume its Qi, blood, and life to provide the beast tamer with a short burst of Transcendent energy.).

The number of contracted beasts is related to one's own Mental Energy; a Second-Order Transcendent can contract a maximum of two.

"I am currently an [E-Grade Transcendent] and can contract a maximum of two; that's enough." After carefully reading the ability introduction several times, Norbu thought to himself, his gaze returning to the crater.

The Golden Eagle lay weakly in the dirt and debris, its head tilted to the side, glancing at him fearfully from time to time.

He jumped into the crater and stared straight into the Golden Eagle's sharp eyes. His calm tone carried a hint of killing intent: "Submit to me and sign a Pet Beast Contract with me, or become a dish in the pot!"

"Screech, screech— — Woo."

The Golden Eagle possessed extraordinary intelligence. Although it could not speak human language, it could perceive Norbu's meaning. Upon hearing "dish in the pot," it trembled all over. It did not refuse, instead voluntarily bowing its kettle-sized head, responding with a low hiss from its beak.

"Little Eagle, you know when to be sensible."

A smile appeared on Norbu's face. He stepped forward and placed his hand on the Golden Eagle's head, closing his eyes. A wisp of faint, grayish-white special Mental Energy emerged from between his brows. The Mental Energy flowed down his arm and into the Golden Eagle's mind. Under the mysterious influence, a contract bond was quickly established.

Through the mental contract bond, Norbu could clearly perceive the Golden Eagle's thoughts and its physical condition. Norbu had chosen the third type, the [Pet Beast Contract]. He was a Prodigy with powerful abilities and lacked no combat helpers, but he did lack a beast pet to grow with.

"This bond is truly mysterious; even from ten thousand miles away, I should be able to perceive the beast pet's thoughts..."

Norbu concentrated and experienced it for a while, then untied the cloth bag from his back and took out a green fruit, the size of an apple.

The green fruit was a mutated First-Order exotic fruit that Norbu had accidentally discovered yesterday while training in a valley filled with tall trees outside the town. The tree bore many fruits, but only five were mutated. He had refined and absorbed one, his mother had eaten one, and three remained. He had only brought one this time, originally intending to consume it if he encountered danger and was injured on the road. Now that the Golden Eagle had become his beast pet, there was no need to hide it; he might as well let it consume it to heal its injuries.

With the great changes in the earth, Heaven And Earth Treasures were springing up like bamboo shoots after rain. As long as one searched carefully, there was no shortage of spiritual items.

Norbu's brows relaxed, and he looked at the Golden Eagle with a light smile, "Little Eagle, eat this. Not only will your injuries heal quickly, but you will also be able to reach a higher level."

"...Yes... Mas... Master..." Within his mind came the Golden Eagle's mental fluctuation. It sounded slurred and a bit timid, but it was trying hard to learn. The Golden Eagle opened its beak, and Norbu placed the green fruit into its mouth.

The green fruit contained pure Wood-type life force. Upon encountering the stomach acid in its abdomen, it was like ice water meeting heat, and the energy dispersed. It flowed through its meridians and bones, repairing the external skin injuries and slowly "transforming" the Golden Eagle's Bloodline foundation.

"It's about to have a Breakthrough..." Norbu waited outside the crater for over half an hour. He saw a thin layer of energy, like a silkworm cocoon, radiating around the Golden Eagle. He could clearly perceive the Golden Eagle's body within the thin layer undergoing evolution and transformation.

"— — Screech!" When the surrounding Spiritual Qi stopped rushing into the crater and the thin energy layer gradually disappeared, the massive figure of the Golden Eagle was revealed once again. It flapped its wings and soared into the sky. Under the illumination of the blazing red sun, the Golden Eagle's golden wings were blindingly bright, resembling a small sun, making one wonder if it was the 'Golden Crow' from myths and legends appearing in the world?
