Chapter 502: The Blood Ghost Out Of Control

The Museum of Deadly Beasts rated this Rank 5 blood ghost quite highly. Among the Rank 5 beasts recorded thus far, it belonged in the top few, surpassing even Xiao Huo and the jade dragon. Outstandingly potent in all aspects, it had near-immortal vitality and supernatural capabilities.

A blood ghost like this one was almost impenetrable.

However, due to how remarkable its strength was, it wasn’t hard to imagine how difficult it would be to form a blood pact with it. Even if the blood contract succeeded, it would exist in an incredibly volatile state. If the contract owner were to lose his focus, they would end up being devoured by the beast, leaving not even his bones behind.

Hence, someone had come up with the idea of forming a blood contract with the powerful pet beast using two people.

However, such a method was rarely deployed. What’s more, these were two conjoined humans forming a pact with one pet beast.

A situation like this one was beyond rare but admittedly, this was the best method to exert complete control over the blood ghost.

Two individuals cojoined as one body, sharing the same veins and blood flow was most suited to form a blood pact with the blood ghost. In fact, these two were practically a match made in heaven. Still, no matter how harmonized their relationship was, the blood contract was built on a three-part structure. If one party collapsed, like the support pillar of a roof crumbling away, the blood contract would break down.

This had been Lin Jin’s aim. He quickly finished off one of the deformed men with the Thunderfire Needle so as to remove one of the supporting corners.

Almost instantly, the balance was destroyed.

The other deformed man looked frightened as he screamed for his brother to respond. However, his brother was already a goner, given that he had already lost his head. Also, since they were conjoined twins, he could also feel the pain so it became much more impossible for him to maintain the blood contract alone.

The Rank 5 blood ghost went berserk immediately.

The raging blood surged like crashing waves, and when pet beasts lost control, a common reaction was to attack the person nearest to them.

That would be its former blood contract owner, who stood right next to it.

Even if the deformed little man tried his best to regain control of the Rank 5 blood ghost, his power alone was clearly limited.

The surging blood ghost swallowed him up at once. Then, they heard the crunching sound of flesh, bone, and blood being churned together, followed by tragic shrieks. The screams went on for a little longer before stopping suddenly, but the sound of flesh mincing continued.

With that, Lin Jin was sure that his opponent was already dead.

One had died from his Thunderfire Needle while the other died from the blood ghost’s backlash. Comparatively speaking, the first one had died a quick and easy death while the other one was pretty agonizing.

As Lin Jin watched the blood ghost move around rampantly, he started forming ideas.

This blood ghost beast was too rare.

Its rarity was on the same level as Gu Mengzhong’s ink monster, perhaps even rarer.

The world probably had only one of its kind.

Today, the Blood Demon Twins and another expert had attempted to ambush and kill Lin Jin, but the predators ended up in the jaws of their prey. In fact, while formulating the plan to use the Thunderfire Needle to attack one of the deformed men, Lin Jin had already set his eyes on the blood ghost.

It was just that eye-catching.

If he could capture this rare beast, he would train the beast for his own use, or he’d give it to someone else.

Almost everyone in this world could form blood contracts with only one beast. At least, this was what Lin Jin initially thought. However, the more time he spent roaming the land, the more he started to doubt that truth.

Back when he was eavesdropping on Chu Gou’s strategy meeting, Lin Jin realized that Elder Ye had two pet beasts with him. In other words, the man formed blood contracts with two pet beasts.

From that moment on, Lin Jin had been thinking about this issue. Surprisingly, he didn’t manage to find a way to form a second blood pact with another beast in the museum.

What’s more, Lin Jin had already asked Shu Xiaolou about it.

Being a Rank 5 beast appraiser and having lived in this world for five hundred years, Shu Xiaolou explained to Lin Jin the possibility of forming a blood pact with a second beast.

There were actually a lot of people in this world who had blood pacts with more than one beast but not a lot of people were aware of this.

However, even if Lin Jin wanted to form a contract with this blood ghost, his first step would be to subdue it.

After devouring its previous owner, the blood ghost was completely freed from its bonds. Right now, it looked just like a large wave of blood.

The blood flowed to consolidate into a giant about ten feet tall. It took on the appearance of its former owner, the only difference being the fact that it was made completely out of blood. While it had human features, it did not feel “alive”. Rather, it appeared to be closer to a doll than a living being.

The freed blood ghost had to rely on its own strength now. It seemed wary of Lin Jin but it was reluctant to run away due to its desire to devour more human flesh to increase its size.

This was the nature of a blood ghost.

A bloodthirsty monster that could devour humans and beasts alike.

Lin Jin was rather troubled now. Subduing a Rank 5 blood ghost was extremely challenging. Moreover, while Lin Jin knew how to form a second blood pact, he had never tried it before. Should he fail, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Fortunately, Lin Jin had a backup plan. When he killed the deformed man with his Thunderfire Needle, he didn’t retrieve his weapon but left it in the man’s corpse. Since the blood ghost had devoured him, the Thunderfire Needle now existed inside its body. Lin Jin invoked a spell to control the Thunderfire Needle, with the hope of subduing the blood ghost from within.

To his surprise, once the spell was activated, Lin Jin found himself disconnected from the Thunderfire Needle.

As if his psyche on the needle was promptly removed, he couldn’t sense it anymore.

“Oh no!”

Lin Jin realized this situation was going from bad to worse. He hadn’t expected the blood ghost to be powerful enough to swallow his Thunderfire Needle. Lin Jin didn’t even have the time to mourn his loss, as he had to come up with a way to counter the blood ghost’s upcoming attacks.

Just as Lin Jin was about to take it head-on, a voice called out.

“I finally found you!”

It was Shu Xiaolou’s voice.

Lin Jin was overjoyed.

Looking up, he found a painting flying over, and then a person emerged from it. She was none other than Shu Xiaolou in her green maiden form.

What’s more, she wore a murderous expression.

Just now, she had been in Peach Blossom House with Lin Jin when her friend was suddenly attacked. The enemy had been brilliant enough to cage Lin Jin in a barrier-type spell before transporting him away.

Shu Xiaolu was obviously infuriated by this, given how her good friend had been abducted right before her eyes.

Thus, Shu Xiaolou commenced pursuit. Had it been anyone else, they wouldn’t have been able to find Lin Jin, but thanks to her skill and experience, she was able to reach this place by relying on minor clues.

“Shu Xiaolou, help me subdue this blood ghost.” Lin Jin was delighted at the sight of her. He alone might not be able to successfully subdue this Rank 5 blood ghost. It might even result in a dead loss in which he’d lose his Thunderfire Needle and gain nothing from the battle.

With Shu Xiaolou here, they should have a chance at capturing this creature alive.
