Chapter 656 - 312: Fang Mu at the Pinnacle of the Sequential Rank!_1
Usually, only powerful Beast Masters can possibly transform into evil spirits after death.
Beast Masters can only transform into undeads after their death, which clearly differentiates evil spirits from undeads.
This is why evil spirits never take on beast form.
Fang Mu originally wanted to ask about Liu Xi’s situation before death, but he could genuinely feel that Liu Xi had little understanding of his previous life.
Moreover, when bringing up some things about his previous life, Liu Xi would unconsciously reveal feelings of reluctance and sadness.
This indicates that Liu Xi went through a lot in his previous life.
Just as Shu Liangjun had said, Liu Xi couldn’t have been an unnamed nobody when he was alive.
If he really had been a nobody, Liu Xi couldn’t have become a Handsome Rank Evil Spirit!
Fang Mu no longer pondered the meaning of the poppy fruit of the bitter infatuation, but instead asked Liu Xi aloud.
“Liu Xi, you have control over Huang Yuan. Through the soul of Huang Yuan, you must have a deep understanding of this world.”
“Especially the power structure of this world.”
“What level of strength can you achieve now!?”
Hearing Fang Mu ask about his strength, Liu Xi confidently but modestly answered.
“Master, my capabilities primarily revolve around charm manipulation and control, and I’m not proficient in close-quarter physical and elemental combat.”
“In close-quarters combat, I can only barely keep up against Sequential Four assault-type Guardian Beasts.”
“When fighting a Sequential Three assault-type Guardian Beast, I’m at a disadvantage.”
“Without using my charm abilities, I might even be killed by the opponent!”
“But if I’m facing sequential Guardian Beasts, I can freely use my charm ability.”
“As long as it’s not a Sequential One Soul-System Beast, I can mostly control it!”
“When facing a Sequential One Soul-System Beast, it depends on whether my charm ability or its soul strength is stronger!”
Hearing Liu Xi’s description of his own power, Fang Mu couldn’t help but widen his eyes.
Although Ground Evil Spirits correspond to Sequential One to Sequential Three Guardian Beasts, Fang Mu hadn’t expected Liu Xi, who had just become a Ground Evil Spirit, to have the qualifications to fight a Sequential One Guardian Beast.
If it was an evil spirit or Spirit of Hero that relied on physical body and elemental energy for combat, it couldn’t reach the level Liu Xi spoke of.
But Liu Xi can control the soul of the opponent with his charm ability.
No matter what level a Guardian Beast’s power reaches, its soul is always its weak point.
Liu Xi wouldn’t kill his opponents in combat, but control them.
In a battle, this was akin to Fang Mu directly having two combatants of Sequential One to Sequential Three.
This made it difficult for Fang Mu to meet an opponent at this level of power.
This increase in power had surpassed Fang Mu’s understanding.
If put in a martial arts novel from his previous life, Fang Mu contracting Liu Xi using the Covenant Blood Essence and Blood Aged Wine and promoting Liu Xi to a Ground Evil Spirit.
Could be likened to a martial arts nobody falling off a cliff and acquiring an opportunity at the bottom, becoming a martial arts master after coming out.
This sense of control over top-notch power made Fang Mu’s heart more settled.
Many times before, Fang Mu’s calmness was forced.
But afterwards, Fang Mu no longer needed to pretend to be calm.
With Liu Xi around, Fang Mu could naturally face any power that did not exceed the Sequential level.
Shu Liangjun, Shui Miao, Qin Shao and Jin Ya were all waiting outside and Fang Mu didn’t keep talking to Liu Xi inside the space of the Abdominal Territory Worm’s Sanctuary.
After giving Liu Xi some instructions, Fang Mu took Liu Xi and left the Sanctuary.
Liu Xi, concealing his aura as per Fang Mu’s instructions, immediately retreated into Huang Yuan’s body after leaving the Sanctuary.
Huang Yuan, who was originally rolling on the ground in agony, instantly got up as if nothing happened.
After giving Fang Mu a light bow, he quickly returned to the Panfeng Royal Court.
At this time, many things were waiting for Huang Yuan to handle.
Huang Yuan had been away from Panfeng Royal Court for too long and it could cause chaos within the Qingdian Clan.
As for letting Liu Xi possess Huang Yuan, Fang Mu wasn’t worried that it would be detected by the Qingdian Clan or the other Beast Controlling Forces.
Liu Xi had previously taken control of Huang Yuan.
If anyone belonging to the Qingdian Clan and Beast Controlling Force had noticed that Huang Yuan was controlled by an evil spirit, they would have revealed it long ago!
Seeing this scene, Shui Miao, Shu Liangjun, and Qin Shao realized,
That Fang Mu had somehow taken control of this evil spirit, or had entered some deep cooperation with it.
If it’s the former, the three could rest assured, but if it’s the latter, it would be somewhat troublesome.
Evil spirits are not a group that keeps their word!
Qin Shao quickly came forward to remind Fang Mu. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
While Qin Shao was advising him, Fang Mu didn’t interrupt but listened attentively to Qin Shao’s description of evil spirits.
Through Qin Shao’s words, Fang Mu gained a deeper understanding of evil spirits.
He also learned that he should not trust any non-contracted evil spirit unless it’s absolutely necessary.
Fang Mu contracted Liu Xi using the Covenant Blood Essence, Liu Xi’s body contained Fang Mu’s bloodline and viewed him as its master.
Fang Mu had become the most important bond in Liu Xi’s heart.
Trusting Liu Xi was equivalent to trusting himself.
Fang Mu solemnly said to Qin Shao.
