Chapter 1557 Artrus 2
The message was too suspicious even though it came as a notification. He felt like it was not something from the System. The notification uses "We", meaning there was a group behind the message. It could be the Administrators, and that was even more suspicious.
Everything was so fishy, including the abrupt teleportation. It would be unfair for the last team who arrived in this place. They finished their second stage trial, and they had to take the third one immediately with no rest.
\'Are they trying to take Ophelius and Ophelia?\' Avyn asked in a solemn voice.
Tang Shaoyang also sensed Zara in the Spirit World. The two spirits were forcefully recalled back during the teleportation. But for what happened in the first stage, it might be possible there was a group of administrators trying to take Ophelius and Ophelia.
"I want to take my time and enjoy the fight, but we need to finish the third stage quickly."
No one disagreed with Tang Shaoyang\'s decision. Not because they agreed with him, but because of Avyn. It seemed his spirits were concerned about the angry Avyn.
"But before that, let\'s add a new family," Tang Shaoyang checked his surroundings with Chaos Eyes, making sure no one was around.
After ensuring no one was nearby, he poured all the calamity\'s corpses into his inventory. It was the corpse of Rank 7, Rank 8, Rank 9, and also the Unique Rank Calamities.
It was not all of his harvest because The Skelly Family took what they killed during the city defense. But these were all he had in his inventory. He emptied his inventory from the corpse and wanted to try summoning a new spirit with calamity as the sacrifice. Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
Tang Shaoyang floated ten meters in the air and directed his hand at the corpses below him. Then he activated his skill, [Spirit Summoning].
Right after he activated the skill, crimson-mixed-purple-colored flame swallowed the corpses. The fire did not spread to the trees or the surroundings. It just burned the corpses until nothing was left, and it happened in five seconds. Thousands of calamity corpses disappeared in five seconds.
Nothing happened for five seconds, and then suddenly the surroundings turned dark. Tang Shaoyang could not see anything even with his Chaos Eyes. He could not sense any presence or even see anything. It was just purely dark. He did not even know if it was still the same place, or if he was teleported to another space.
It lasted for ten seconds until he felt the surrounding temperature surge. He could feel the heat despite his resistance to the fire which was rare. Then the same colored fire flared up. He was surrounded by crimson-purple-colored flames.
The flame tried to reach him, but they could not. They stopped at five meters, forming a circle with him at the center. As if the flame was angry, the flame blazed up, trying to break the invisible barrier. But it went up instead, up to a thousand meters in the air.
It lasted for thirty seconds before the flame calmed down. The fire went down and kept blazing at Tang Shaoyang\'s height. Then the flame suddenly split up, forming a twenty-meter-wide path. At the end of that path, he saw the shadow of a creature.
It was bigger than Doombringer, around fifteen meters tall. From the shadow, he could see the silhouette of a lion with a mane. The creature walked forward, slowly coming out from the shadow.
The first thing that came into his sight was the face, and he guessed correctly, that it was a lion. Of course, it was not the same lion in the zoo. Its left eye was crimson, and its right eye was purple. It stared straight at Tang Shaoyang, releasing its noble aura and yet terrifying aura. As it fully came out of the shadow, it let out a deafening roar.
In terms of shape, it did not look much different than the lion he saw in the zoo. The difference was the size, and its fur and mane were made of crimson-purple flame. It was not an elemental body, but just the fur was made of flame until the tail. Its mane blazed, and the lion looked majestic, a king.
[You have summoned an Archaic Spirit, Artrus The King of Calamity!]
"Who are you, human? And how do you come to this King\'s domain?" Artrus stood behind the barrier that separated him and Tang Shaoyang.
"Wait… Are you really human?" The lion was confused for a moment, "A part of you is human, also a demon and a dragon…." Then its eyes widened in surprise, "You have Chaos Energy? This is interesting. No human could handle Chaos Energy, their body will be destroyed from the inside or they will explode, but thanks to your bloodline, you managed to control Chaos Energy."
"But wait… The two bloodlines that are supposed to oppose each other in your body are now residing in your body in harmony and creating Chaos Energy. What are you!?"
The lion waved its paw before Tang Shaoyang answered it, "There\'s no need to tell me because I will find it out myself. Let\'s get to the main topic."
"The only way for you to form a contract with me is by beating me. However, I will make an exception for you. I will establish a contract with you with one condition. As soon as you form a contract with me, you have to use Spirit Integration with me. That\'s my only condition. I will discover your mystery by myself."
Because all his spirits were now Archaic Spirit, there was a clear indication that differentiated them. It was the sub-rank, and he knew the lion in front of him was on the same level as Avyn. Artrus was the Peak of the Archaic Spirit.
The condition of this lion was slightly suspicious. If he had a choice, he would fight the lion. However, his strongest spirit, Avyn, was still in a weakened state. On top of that, he was short on time. For Ophelius and Ophelia\'s safety, he needed to establish the contract and finish the trial quickly before something bad happened to the twins.
\'It\'s just an integration, and I will integrate with him sooner or later anyway.\'
"I agree. Let\'s establish the contract!"
