The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 930 - 369: Weather Witch, Battling the Swan Lord

Comprehensive communication deepened everyone’s perception of the "Pioneer Sect Leader."

The junior members primarily enjoyed "Death Challenges," enhancing their combat skills and accumulating real battle experience.

The authority of intermediate members, as long as it was B-rank or lower, could be forcibly promoted by one grade in a Superior Level manner, reaching up to A-rank in strength, and achieving a breakthrough in hierarchy.

High-ranking members received the "Pioneer Blessing" and had a certain chance of summoning "Guardian Beasts" for help when in danger.

Among these—the "Pioneer Blessing" and "Guardian Beasts" are among the core abilities of the Pioneer Sect Leader.

The latter refers to Ye Hanjun’s Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits, and once successfully summoned, they act as stand-ins for attacks, reducing the energy of the original body without causing it harm.

As for the "Pioneer Blessing," based on the bound Guardian Beast, its effects are mostly fixed.

For example, GuaGua’s characteristic is "Flawless." High-ranking members who choose GuaGua as their Guardian Beast can slightly reduce various forms of negative conditions affecting both human and Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits, enhancing resistance.

Aegifura enhances charm and spiritual resistance;

Mo reduces pain and damage;

Absolute String purifies the mind, significantly immunizes against sound-based attacks, strengthens lightning resistance, and enhances the Thunder Element;

Huazhu forms a Wind Element shield, strengthening the Wind Element;

Goose Immortal increases strength and boosts combat instincts;

Sword Thunder Child is the most special; perhaps because of the Heavenly Gifted Mark, for hundreds of years, no one has been able to bind it, it can neither become a Guardian Beast nor provide a Pioneer Blessing, completely independent.

"Swoosh!"

The conversation was interrupted, and Ye Hanjun lit up the tadpole mark on the back of his right hand.

The Summoning Array activated, and a streak of white light flashed and vanished.

Looking again, in the comfortably usual round table conference room, a small beast lay on the table, belly up, sound asleep.

Sensing the change in environment, it let out a string of bubbles from its slightly open mouth.

Then, it flipped over, its eyelids struggling to open a slit, drowsily almost closing again.

"Eh? A big tadpole? I’m not seeing things, am I?!"

GuaGua leaped hundreds of meters high, slamming into the ceiling with a yelp of pain.

Ignoring the small bump swelling on its head, it rode the Ninth Layer Lotus Platform and dived straight into Ye Hanjun’s arms, eagerly sniffing his scent.

"Yay, yay, yay! You’ve finally woken up! I was so bored, stuck in the Contract Space, nothing to do but sleep a lot!"

The high-spirited little guy immediately started a playful ribbing.

Then, it performed a set of Frog Style punches, hammering away at Ye Hanjun’s chest to check his physical state.

"Croak, croak! The big tadpole looks very healthy!"

"That’s great! We’ve made it through this ordeal! From now on, the world’s as vast as my leaps; the Fetus of God Sealing—here I come!"

GuaGua, full of joy, buried its head in Ye Hanjun’s neck, then climbed into his golden hair, rolling around, unable to sit still for a moment.

"Golden hair, eh! Just like the Little Black Hat!"

"Your pupils are so strange, gray in color, not dark and gloomy, but rather like an old noble, wise and reserved..."

"This white robe is also amazing! So clean and tidy, it matches my color well!"

...

Ye Hanjun chuckled, scratching the little one’s chin and then caressing its cool jade-like back, overwhelmed with emotion.

The bitter journey had come to a sweet end; it hadn’t been easy.

The little guy must have been worried for a long time, right? Those years spent in a daze, unable to communicate, enduring the feeling of loneliness, it must have been tough...

...

Ye Hanjun’s pupils—froze for a moment.

After breaking free from the restraints of the Heavenly Dao and gaining the potential for further ascension, the heavily suppressed rank of the Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits naturally welcomed explosive breakthroughs.

Yet he had the inheritance messages, and he didn’t pause on the words "Radiant World Embryo - Minor Achievement."

Even the five skills, representing the limit of the Radiant World Embryo with 300,000 Marks each, only elicited a gasp of admiration before he rapidly moved on.

Current state... Ancient God Protection... What is this?

Before returning to Without-Sun City, Ye Hanjun had not seen such a description on GuaGua’s attribute panel...

"Big tadpole, what’s going on?"

"I’ll tell you, I’m really powerful now! I’ve been practicing my skills during my spare time; my casting speed is hundreds of times faster than before, it’s so quick!"

As it spoke, GuaGua wriggled out of Ye Hanjun’s palm, turned into a streak of white light, and started zipping around the conference room.

It moved faster than lightning but didn’t bring any piercing sound of breaking the air.

Just a gentle "swoosh," like a sheet of paper falling to the ground, and GuaGua could circle around the room and then return to the center of Ye Hanjun’s palm.

"What incredible speed... Is this the new skill, ’Super Light Speed’ you’ve mastered?"

Ye Hanjun’s once-frozen gaze gradually thawed, he smiled faintly, and, supporting the little one’s bottom, he held it securely in his hand.

"Right, right! I’ve learned to accelerate! This isn’t the same as Little Black Hat’s short burst of movement! I have a lot of stamina! I can run lots and lots of rounds without getting tired!"

"In the future, I can take on scouting tasks! Leave enemy reconnaissance to me with confidence!"
