Chapter 356
“This Scarlet Flame Snow Wolf is mine!” Senior apprentice-brother Qi shot out a huge spiritual arrow at Long Chen .
This was something made of Spiritual Strength, and it appeared like water in the air . This was a soul art that took incorporeal Spiritual Strength and turned it into a tangible attack .
The reason Beast Tamers were powerful wasn’t just because of their powerful housepets . Their spiritual attacks were also terrifying .
This spiritual arrow was three meters long, appearing like a translucent spear that stabbed at Long Chen .
Long Chen punched out . His punch contained his powerful will, and it smashed apart the spiritual arrow .
However, although the spiritual arrow’s outer form had been destroyed, its spiritual attacking power had not weakened at all . A formless energy surged into Long Chen’s forehead .
A spiritual attack was specialized in attacking the soul, and outer forces were unable to affect it . It was impossible to use physical strength to block it .
That Spiritual Strength surged into Long Chen, and he immediately felt a burst of intense pain, as if tens of thousands of needles were stabbing into him . He hastily circulated his own Spiritual Strength to defend .
Long Chen had no techniques when it came to how to properly use his powerful soul . He could only use the simplest and crudest defensive method to block the spiritual attack .
He involuntarily took a couple steps back, his face slightly pale . Although he had blocked it, he still felt an immense pain .
This was the first time Long Chen encountered true Spiritual Strength attacks . They were extremely terrifying . It was no wonder why senior apprentice-brother Qi, while only being ranked a core disciple in his sect, was still so arrogant .
Little Snow was connected to Long Chen’s mind and soul, so he immediately roared and attacked senior apprentice-brother Qi when he saw Long Chen was injured .
“Come be my housepet!” In the face of Little Snow’s charge, senior apprentice-brother Qi wasn’t the slightest bit afraid . In fact, a fanatical expression appeared on his face and he quickly formed hand seals . “First let me erase your spiritual imprint!”
Following his hand seals, a bizarre mark appeared in front of him . It shot towards Little Snow and directly landed on his head .
However, senior apprentice-brother Qi was shocked to find that there was no reaction at all from Little Snow, and a huge claw smashed down on him .
“What?! There’s no spiritual imprint?” He had never imagined that Little Snow was a contractless Magical Beast .
His technique was used to erase Long Chen’s spiritual imprint . Beast Tamers had an understanding of Magical Beasts that others simply did not possess .
If the spiritual imprint of a contracted Magical Beast was erased, that would be a huge impact on the Magical Beast’s soul, and they would instantly faint .
Removing the spiritual imprint in this manner would cause a great deal of harm to a Magical Beast’s soul . A spiritual imprint on a Magical Beast was like a lock on a door .
Only the owner possessed the key . If they wanted to, they could remove their own spiritual imprint and grant a Magical Beast their freedom .
However, the more domineering method to remove that imprint was to use a powerful soul art and barbarically erase it . It was like taking a hatchet and forcibly cutting off the lock of a door . Naturally, that would badly damage the door as well .
Senior apprentice-brother Qi had already realized that Long Chen was only a dabbler and not a true Beast Tamer . He fundamentally didn’t understand ways to use Spiritual Strength . It was unknown just what trick he had used in order to obtain this mutated Snow Wolf .
That was why the first thing he tried was to remove Little Snow’s spiritual imprint and make him lose consciousness . Then when he awoke, he would place his own spiritual imprint and make Little Snow his housepet .
However, Little Snow didn’t have a spiritual imprint . And yet, he had clearly seen Little Snow be summoned out of Long Chen’s spiritual s.p.a.ce .
Before senior apprentice-brother Qi even realized what was going on, Little Snow’s claw ruthlessly smashed into him .
BANG!
A s.h.i.+eld suddenly appeared in front of senior apprentice-brother Qi’s body . That wasn’t a physical s.h.i.+eld he was holding with his hand, but a s.h.i.+eld formed from Spiritual Strength . It floated in front of his body and blocked Little Snow’s attack .
Senior apprentice-brother Qi retreated quickly after blocking his attack . He was completely bewildered .
“Fine . Since you don’t have a spiritual imprint, then I’ll help you gain one!” He once more formed hand seals . This time, his Spiritual Strength was completely activated, and a strange mark appeared behind him .
Long Chen recognized that as a character from ancient times: SLAVE . He wanted to enslave Little Snow . Killing intent surged out of Long Chen .
Senior apprentice-brother Qi seemed fanatical as he poured in more Spiritual Strength . Millions of threads began to shoot out of the SLAVE character, attempting to reach Little Snow .
Little Snow instinctively had a bad feeling, and shot backwards . He felt an extremely uneasy sensation when he looked at that character .
“Hehe, it’s useless! You’ve been locked onto by my soul so you can’t run! Just obediently become my housepet!” Senior apprentice-brother Qi smiled sinisterly . Currently, all he was focused on was Little Snow . He didn’t even glance at Long Chen .
From his previous attack, he could already tell Long Chen’s strength . Although Long Chen had a vast Spiritual Strength, he had no idea how to use it . He could easily kill him whenever .
However, he felt that killing Long Chen just like this wouldn’t be able to resolve the hatred he had for him, so he was thinking of subduing Little Snow and then using him to kill Long Chen .
To die to his own housepet, that was an interesting punishment . And so he chose to ignore Long Chen for now and focus on Little Snow .
Now that he was on guard, even if Long Chen wanted to sneak attack him, it would be useless . That was why he was brazen enough to ignore him .
