Chapter 348: Chapter 257: Contract (Part 2)

Yun Kai closed his eyes, as if feeling something.

“I’ll join too.”

Little Sister Dong raised her small hand, somewhat weakly.

She wasn’t afraid of any aftereffects, but was afraid of pain.

However, since Yun Kai, who was once part of the top configuration trio, had set an example, she naturally couldn’t fall behind.

“Haha.”

Seeing Little Sister Dong’s expression as if facing death, Lin Feng couldn’t help but laugh.

When the little monster opened its big mouth, Little Sister Dong’s screams were already sounding in advance, and after that, they became even more high-pitched. When the intense pain ended, Little Sister Dong was drenched in sweat, her face still showing lingering fear.

At this moment, new blue marks appeared on the little monster’s body, resembling Little Sister Dong.

“I’m next.”

Yue Mingming was third. He didn’t care about the aftereffects at all; could those little aftereffects be as important as Soul Skills?

After Yue Mingming, it was Ye Qiu.

His life was saved by Lin Feng, what were a few aftereffects to him?

After Ye Qiu, Yu Qiao also stepped forward. Since the other three from the Red Cloud Team accepted it, if he refused, he would be seen as not fitting in. Later, it would be uncertain if he would remain a main force in the team.

Moreover, he was known as the crafty one, very smart. Lin Feng absorbed the Peace Contract and was surely up to something big, they just didn’t know it yet.

To gain benefits, at least he had to board the pirate ship first.

“I’ll join too.”

Huang Tianze spoke, and soon after, a black mark appeared on the little monster’s chest.

Seeing the other six sign the contract, Zhan Tianyu and Yang Ningbing exchanged glances and made their decision.

By then, Lin Feng had gathered Ye Qiu and six others, making seven in total, including Lin Feng.

Seven super geniuses, representing the embryo of a force. In a few years, even the Ten Great Clans of Shangjing would have to take notice. If they two refused to sign the contract, they’d surely be excluded.

Besides recognizing Lin Feng, this was also why they were willing to sign the contract.

When eight marks appeared on the little monster’s chest, Lin Feng felt a stirring in his heart, and the little monster’s form gradually dissolved, turning into specks of light returning to his body.

At this time, except for Lin Feng, Yun Kai and the other eight had somewhat pale faces. Their soul power was devoured, leaving them in a poor state, looking extremely exhausted.

“Can you reveal your plan now?”

Zhan Tianyu asked.

He couldn’t believe that Lin Feng spent a significant amount to find the Peace Beast and expended a precious Soul Skill just to form an alliance?

Without benefits, such an alliance had neither attraction nor binding force.

After signing the contract, they could feel a slight connection forming between themselves and the others, able to sense everyone’s location even with closed eyes, which would greatly help in battle. But apart from that, it didn’t confer any other abilities.

As for the Peace Contract, it only prevented them from doing harm to Lin Feng. Since they had no intention of harming Lin Feng at the moment, it was irrelevant.

Under the curious gazes, Lin Feng slowly said, “I have a kind of ability that can improve your success rate in absorbing Soul Skills.”

As soon as the words fell, except for Yue Mingming, everyone’s expression changed in disbelief!

“What?”

Zhan Tianyu hurriedly asked, even suspecting that he heard wrong.

“You didn’t hear wrong, no need to doubt,” Lin Feng said.

Besides the sound of heavy breathing, the room became somewhat quiet.

Everyone exchanged glances, unable to hide the suspicion and shock in their eyes.

To a Demon Spirit Master, Soul Skills were akin to a second life.

Sometimes, Soul Skills even held more importance than their Lifebound Demon Spirit.

They had never heard of anyone who could improve the success rate of absorbing Soul Skills.

If such a person existed, they would undoubtedly become a national treasure, become a nation’s tributor, an entity unrivaled even among Emperors.

If Lin Feng indeed had this ability, he would become the world’s richest person.

“How much can it improve?”

Yang Ningbing suppressed the shock in her heart and asked word by word.

Lin Feng: “Several times!”

Several times?

Although Lin Feng didn’t specify the probability, even if it was only double, or even tens of percent, it would be enough to make their blood boil.

Knowing that for one Soul Skill, they sometimes had to spend tens or hundreds of billions of New Coins.

As children of destiny, heirs of great families, Yang Ningbing didn’t lack Soul Skills, even diamond-level ones; as long as she could absorb, the family could find them for her.

But finding them didn’t mean they could absorb them.

The stronger the Soul Skill, the lower the absorption success rate.

An excellent Soul Skill, if absorption failed, that aching feeling, they’d know it too well, sometimes it would take months to recover.

Some Demon Spirits containing great Soul Skills were not only costly but also rare to come by; if absorption failed, they might never find another.

Sometimes to improve the success rate, they’d compromise, abandoning their desired Soul Skills, opting for others of the same type but with lesser power, fearing that even replacement Soul Skills would be hard to find, which could alter the optimal nurturing path of the Demon Spirit.

But sometimes, facing the possibility of failure and the high-priced Demon Spirits, Demon Spirit Masters could only compromise.

“Is it true?”

Zhan Tianyu still couldn’t believe it. A multiple increase in success rate, what kind of concept was that?

His Demon Spirit, the Six-armed Celestial Demon, its innate skill, known as a divine level Demon Spirit, and its innate skill also known as a divine level Soul Skill.
