Chapter 561: Premature Hatching

osphere is off. Did the Action Team's mission fail"By the time she got to the end, her voice had dropped to a whisper."If it fails, it's okay. At worst, I'll get scolded. But the situation is a bit co..."Can you tell the difference between a contaminated phantom beast"

"Yes, they all have a great deal of hostility towards me, no matter if they can defeat me or not, they will attack me fearlessly. After I crush them, the demonic energy within them will burrow into my body, attempting to assimilate me."

Bai Feng answers all questions.

"Because you are the strongest mythical beast here"

Ripples raised an eyebrow and asked.

“The five-clawed golden dragon I borrowed is one of the powerful mythical beasts in this fantasy space. He wasn't supposed to hatch so early, but my arrival caused him to incubate ahead of schedule. His soul body was very well protected by me.”

"No wonder the demonic aura targets you. You are practically the boss of the Illusion Beast Space now. As long as you are corrupted, other Illusion Beasts weaker than you can all become parasites for the demonic aura under your suppression."

Ripples brushed against the magic staff in his hand.

“Yes, I only discovered this after being attacked several times. The entire Spirit Beast Island is like a honeycomb, with all the spirit beasts arranged in a sequence from low to high, occupying the caves from the bottom of the island upwards. Because of their own strength, lower-ranked spirit beasts are the most vulnerable to demonic energy invasion.”

And for Phantasmal Beasts of Tier three and above, due to their own strength and natural aversion to Demonic Qi, they will avoid it on their own. Of course, not all high-ranking Phantasmal Beasts can escape Demonic Qi, and Phantasmal Beast eggs that are incubating and lack the protection of merit will be contaminated, and they are extremely difficult to find.

Bai Feng talked eloquently. He had spent three years in this special space, and through his observations and constant probing, he discovered these rules.

"Ripple, what's the next step I'm all in with you."

Bai Feng asked directly.

You are responsible for driving the people off the island, and I will be in charge of purifying the contaminated egg.

Ripple knew that Bai Feng's merits had almost been depleted and dared not get too close to the bottom.

"Understood! I'll keep all of them out of Phantom Beast Island. I'll also let the phantom beasts above level three that have shed their shells go out to find contracts on their own. I'll try my best to clear this place out, so it's easier for you to move around."

Bai Feng immediately said.

OK, be careful yourself.

As soon as Ripples raised her hand, Bai Feng broke free from her finger and transformed back into a five-clawed golden dragon. This time, his size was three times larger than before. He circled the entire Fantasy Beast Island once, then let out a deafening dragon roar that echoed throughout the space.

The next moment, the fantasy beasts were like they received an order, starting to scramble and leave Fantasy Island, rushing into the void to seek their contract masters.

And the boys and girls who climbed onto Fantasy Island were frightened by the surging beasts, instinctively retreating and leaving Fantasy Island. As for those who remained, they were all quite strong, and Bai Feng didn't care about them.

Following Bai Feng's map, Lian Ri plunged into a tunnel and went down, winding through hundreds of caves until they reached an area where you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. There, they sensed the egg that Bai Feng had mentioned: an egg that never hatched but continuously produced demonic energy.

Ripple raised her hand, and a glowing magic circle formed in her palm. She then tossed the circle, which slowly expanded above her head, illuminating the entire cavern.

Then Ripple saw a black egg hovering in the middle of the cave, and wisps of gray threads were still emanating from its surface.

Because of the Light Magic Circle, Ripples saw that the black egg, twice her size, was becoming transparent. She could clearly see the phantom beast inside, forming like a mosquito coil, about to hatch.

The next second, the grey demonic aura that roamed the cavern, as if it had found its target, surged towards where Ripple was.

Ripple frowned, her lotus magic staff touching the ground and forming a golden magic circle beneath her feet, keeping all the demonic energy at bay.

Although the demonic energy was constantly corroding the magic circle Ripples had opened, it was unable to break through her defenses in half an hour.

Ripples raised her magic staff and poured the virtue power from her soul into the luminous magic array above her head. The magic array instantly expanded, shrouding the black egg in its glow.

As the golden light of merit descended, wisps of demonic aura seemed to encounter its nemesis, emitting a sizzling sound of vaporization. In an instant, it reduced the demonic aura by half.

As if sensing the might of the virtuous light, the demonic energy that was previously besieging Ripple instantly shifted its target back to the black egg, wanting to protect the phantom beast about to break free.

Ripple summons Byakuren through a contract seal:

"Bai Feng, this mythical beast is about to hatch, and he has already become a vessel for demonic energy. He cannot be purified, I must eliminate him, or all the other mythical beasts here will be corrupted."

Baifeng was waving his dragon tail to drive people away. After hearing the message relayed by Lianyi, his tail paused for a moment before he immediately said:

"I'll be there to help you right away!"

Just as Lian Yi finished her call with Bai Feng, the black egg cracked open a small fissure. The gray filaments that had been floating on the surface of the black egg instantly surged back inside.

Her eyebrows were furrowed so tightly, it seemed like the other party was eager to come out.

As expected, the next moment, the entire black eggshell shattered into pieces, and a nine-headed black serpent emerged from within. On the head in the very center, a gray rhombus crystal was embedded.

The black snake seemed to dislike the light magic circle above its head. After shaking its head, it opened its crimson eyes, revealing a gray vertical pupil. It raised its tail and directly smashed the ripple of light magic circle with brute force.

Then she coiled around the ripples, wanting to strangle the hateful man.

The ripple expression remained unchanged, once again expanding the golden magic array beneath her feet, spreading to where the nine-headed black serpent was. Then countless golden blades rose up, beginning to spin in a spiral, attacking the black snake and tearing at its scales.

Meanwhile, Bai Feng had already walked to Lian Yi's side. Seeing the nine-headed black serpent trapped in the magic circle, he suddenly felt an urge to run away. He hated snakes the most in his life, and this one had nine heads.

"Don't worry! We just need to focus our strength and attack the brain at the center, the one with the crystal on top."

Ripple kindly reminded.

"Why"

Because he hatched early just like you, but his power wasn't enough. The other eight heads hadn't developed completely, their eyes were still closed, and they didn't have the rhombus-shaped crystals that concentrate power on their heads.

Ripples looked closely, and she realized that her magic array attacks weren't actually targeting the central brain. Instead, they were attacking the other eight brains.

"Where did all the demonic energy go"

"They were all absorbed by him, which is how he was able to break out of his shell."

"He must have felt threatened, that's why he forcibly absorbed the demonic energy and broke free prematurely." Let me know if you need anything else translated!

Bai Feng glared with wide eyes, a golden light flashing in them. He was certain that the analysis of Patriarch Lian Yi was correct.

With a resounding "bang," the golden magic circle that imprisoned the nine-headed black snake shattered. Bai Feng directly departed from the underground cave, leaving ripples in his wake.a without arousing any suspicion. When she took out her compass, it reacted immediately."Tsk, really hiding here."After the ripple used a compass to determine its direction, it slowly moved in that di...
