Another Level 7 Battle Pet!
"Awooo, roar!"
Just as Cao Fengqi easily dealt with the level 7 Aberrant Witch Worm, the screams of the Xiaotian Dog came from ahead.
"..."
Cao Fengqi looked over and saw the Aberrant Witch Worm, the Venomous Thorn Vine, awakened from the Illusion World, radiating a blood-red light and violently whipping the Xiaotian Dog with its thorns.
Every blow left a terrible bloodstain on it!
"This Venomous Thorn Vine is probably the strongest among these three level 7 Aberrant Witch Worm."
Cao Fengqi looked over, his figure moved, and the Flame Wing Feather Sword in his hand instantly burst into terrifying flames.
The Flame Wing Feather Sword's special effect, Flame Feather, is activated immediately!
The Heavenly Shadow Lost Trace Movement Art: Shadow Skimming Wind Chasing, striking in an instant!
"Fire melts black metal, and sharp blades are completely destroyed."
"Melt Edge Dissolve Iron Form!"
Cao Fengqi rushed forward instantly, the Flame Feather on his sword completely enveloping him.
"Boom!"
"Roar roar roar!"
When the Xiaotian Dog saw its master approaching, it immediately began barking wildly, emboldened by its master's power.
With a swift movement, it unleashed its beast technique, Gloom Ruins Shadow Splitting, and pounced in unison!
"Click-clack!" "Click-clack!"
The Venomous Thorn Vine, which was initially injured by the Xiaotian Dog, was completely unable to withstand the combined attack from Cao Fengqi and his battle pets.
Its single, menacing eye on its main trunk throbbed wildly, locked onto the Xiaotian Dog, completely ignoring Cao Fengqi's attacks, and fought the Xiaotian Dog to the death!
"Awooooo!"
"..."
Cao Fengqi couldn't help but chuckle when he saw this guy completely focused on Xiaotian Dog, ignoring his attacks.
His sword strikes were relentless, slicing through thorns one after another.
The Xiaotian Dog fared much worse, with bloody wounds all over his body!
"It's time to end this, Crimson Flame Burns the Spirit!"
Cao Fengqi saw the wide-open weakness, his gaze sharpened, and he thrust his sword forward.
This attack, without the branches to block it, pierced directly through the Venomous Thorn Vine from behind.
"Crash!" Its body trembled violently and slowly collapsed.
"Roar!"
Seeing the Venomous Thorn Vine fall, the Xiaotian Dog, its eyes gleaming, went straight to its corpse and began tearing and biting at it, clearly not intending to leave the creature that had whipped it with a whole body.
"..."
"Awooo!" "Zhizhi!"
Around them, the remaining level 6 Aberrant Witch Worm began to die one after another as they faced attacks from traps, Mirage Rat, and Nightmare from above!
Cao Fengqi looked over and immediately charged forward with his sword.
With the troublesome level 7 Aberrant Witch Worm gone, the following battles were much easier!
Haha, what a close call!
When he killed the last witch insect, Cao Fengqi's face showed excitement.
He stared intently at the corpses of the witch insects around him.
There are 25 Aberrant Witch Worm, including 3 level 7 ones.
The gains were enormous.
"First, we'll form a contract with that Burrowing, Aberrant Witch Worm; its abilities are rather insidious."
Cao Fengqi stared intently at the level 7 witch insect that was under the Mirage Sleep.
He likes evil beasts and spirits that seduce people.
Cao Fengqi has a cheat code that allows him to surprise evil beasts and spirits that lurk in the shadows.
If he could form a contract with such a treacherous evil spirit or beast, it would be easier for him to scheme against people in the future.
Cao Fengqi and walked up to the Aberrant Witch Worm with two long, rusty claws, and curiously examined it.
There is no record of this Aberrant Witch Worm in official documents.
"You'll know the information after the contract is signed."
He thought to himself, and immediately used the Evil Herding Art to extract a piece of its soul.
"A spiritual cry pierces the void, a binding seal solidifies into form;"
"The Abyss Soul summons the beast, the secret seal seals the evil."
"Beast Contract, Condensed."
"It's a success."
With Cao Fengqi's professional skills, he could form contracts with almost any evil spirit or beast, unless it was particularly ferocious.
[Battle Pet: Aberrant Witch Worm. Guilou]

[Skill 5, Protective Blade: Envelops the body with hand bones and claws. In this state, defense is increased by 100%, and the skill lasts for 3 minutes.]
"Guilou? Its skills are indeed very strong, possessing two talents: Burrowing and Devouring..."
Cao Fengqi looked at its attributes, his eyes flickering slightly. "Devouring can enhance itself? This 'Devouring'... means it Devouring other Gu worms?"
A thought struck him, and he conveyed his meaning to it with the Beast Herding Heart.
"Sizzle!"
The Guilou, which was holding onto the severed claws, sensed his mental information and immediately responded.
"That's true. For Aberrant Witch Worm battle pet to improve, it needs Devouring other Aberrant Witch Worm, or other bloody, toxic, or dark items."
Cao Fengqi slightly. The evolution of Gu worms relies on mutual Devouring.
"Any battle pet that can evolve is a good battle pet."
Cao Fengqi was very satisfied with his new battle pet.
This is comparable to a superhuman who has just entered the Third Sequence.
His gaze swept over the corpses of the remaining Aberrant Witch Worm, and he walked over to them one by one.
"These Aberrant Witch Worm are not very large, and most of them are poisonous insects."
Cao Fengqi examined them one by one, then slowly frowned. "There are relatively few Aberrant Witch Worm of the mental type. Three of them were killed in battle. Even if they weren't killed, the Mirage Rat wouldn't improve much after absorbing them. So now there's a problem... my own Mirage Rat can't improve."
If the Mirage Rat doesn't improve its abilities, I still won't have a good way to deal with the Gray Feather Moth my left.
The only aerial battle pets he could deal with besides the Mirage Rat were Nightmare, but Nightmare was too weak.
Furthermore, Nightmare is a spirit-type battle pet, so absorbing these witch insects through Soul Siphoning is obviously not cost-effective.
"This is bad. Although I've dealt with the witch insects here, the Gray Feather Moth on the left are still a problem. This is troublesome."
Cao Fengqi looked helpless and shook his head, temporarily putting the problem aside.
He looked at the corpses on the ground. "The Xiaotian Dog is still a bit weak, equivalent to a rookie in the Third Sequence. These Aberrant Witch Worm are very small. Would the Xiaotian Dog digest them faster if it ate them? Would it improve its strength faster? That's something worth studying."
"The Guilou isn't very strong at level 7, so we can upgrade Guilou. This guy is seriously injured and needs to recover."
"Also, I need to improve myself."
Cao Fengqi pondered for a moment, and finally made a decision.
"There are still a lot of resources I haven't collected yet. If the resources I acquire later aren't enough to advance me to the Third Sequence, I'll collect the souls of these Aberrant Witch Worm."
As he thought about it, his eyes gradually brightened as he looked ahead.
Ahead, there are still 10 level 6 supplies, 8 level 7 supplies, and 1 level 8 supply.
"Hopefully there will be something good!"
After collecting the corpse of the Aberrant Witch Worm, Cao Fengqi walked away with a look of anticipation on his face.
"Metal material... metal material... metal material... a level 6 staff?"
"Staffs are valuable items; they cost two level 6 souls or five level 5 souls."
"Another level 7 bone knife, hahaha, 12 level 6 souls acquired."
"Huh, what's this?"
