Chapter 388: Sights From the Shadows

Hearing Jiang Chen's question, the robot fell into silence for the first time.

It was not asking the top management, but was desperately calculating whether the remaining two pet spirits would exceed the carrying limit of the Starry Sky Gate.

Before Jiang Chen could ask again, the robot gave an answer.

"No."

"That's good."

Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief. This Starry Sky Gate was not cheap at first glance. If it was damaged, he couldn't afford to pay for it.

Ten million Azure Horned Python Life Cores sounded like a lot, but they were really just that.

After all, Jiang Chen had spent nearly 20 million that day.

"In that case, Fa Cai, you go ahead and absorb it."

Da Da!

Fa Cai waved his little paws, and flew to the Starry Sky Gate with a flash. He looked at the starlight vortex with interest, as if he wanted to see the endless void behind it through the vortex.

"The baptism will begin soon, please be prepared."

The robot operated the controller, and the Starry Sky Gate began to expand immediately, and in an instant it became twice its original size.

Jiang Chen only took a look at the robot's operation and did not ask any more questions, because the star power had already fallen again.

Compared with the previous one, the star power this time was much larger in both scale and concentration, and it was obviously scared by the red, middle and white boards.

But even so, Fa Cai still absorbed it very easily, and even flew directly to the front of the vortex and swallowed it in large gulps.

Although Fa Cai's size is the smallest among all pet spirits, it is shown after extreme compression.

In terms of size, Fa Cai's current size is definitely the tallest in the team.

In addition to the improvement of the essence of life by the Tree of Truth, the amount that Fa Cai can absorb is definitely the highest in the team.

However, it is precisely because of this that the Starry Sky Gate, which had just been expanded, showed signs of overload again.

"Are you sure it won't break?"

Jiang Chen asked again, and got the same answer in return.

"No!"

"Uh, the robot is upset?"

Jiang Chen scratched his head and looked at Wen Quan beside him, feeling a little helpless.

I hope it won't break down.

On the other side, after receiving Jiang Chen's confirmation order, Fa Cai also let go and began to devour frantically. The power of the stars was even devoured as soon as it left the vortex.

In the end, Fa Cai simply put his mouth directly on the starlight vortex to absorb it.

If the starlight vortex did not allow other creatures to pass through, Fa Cai might even have to drill to the other side of the vortex.

Beep...

A spark suddenly appeared on the Starry Sky Gate, and Jiang Chen, who was originally full of expectations, suddenly became nervous.

"Will it really not break down?"

The robot was silent, just operating something on the machine quickly, and the Starry Sky Gate also became quiet.

A minute passed quickly, and Fa Cai finally stopped absorbing.

But compared with other pet spirits, Fa Cai did not seem to have any intuitive changes.

"Because it's too strong, it has no effect?"

Jiang Chen was a little disappointed. It seems that the effect of this star baptism is not that good.

However, when Jiang Chen saw the attribute board of Fa Cai, he no longer thought so.

[Race name]: Buddha Flying (Fa Cai)

[Attribute]: Gold

[Bloodline level]: Epic

[Combat power level]: Silver 9 stars

[Birth skill]: Law of Heaven and Earth (superb)

[Race skill]: Tree of Truth (Master), Claw of All Changes - Four Symbols (superb), Indestructible Buddha (Perfect)

...

"It actually directly upgraded to 9 stars. This upgrade is too exaggerated!"

Jiang Chen's mouth was almost grinning to his heels.

He originally wanted to use two baptisms to see if he could help Fa Cai upgrade to 9 stars, so that Fa Cai could upgrade to gold level as soon as possible.

What he didn't expect was that the effect of star baptism was proportional to the absorption capacity of the pet spirit, and Fa Cai was fully upgraded in an instant.

Although Fa Cai's terrifying absorption ability is also surprising, it is also surprising that Tianqi University really allows them to absorb.

This Tianqi University is pretty good.

Jiang Chen was immersed in joy, while Wen Quan on the side was full of doubts.

How could he remember that the rules of the star baptism were not like this.

Didn't the predecessors say that the amount of each star baptism was determined by collecting data in advance? How come it became a random absorption?

But, who cares.

Wen Quan didn't say much. Anyway, this is a good thing. It's good that Jiang Chen's strength can be improved.

"Next is Jiutong."

Jiang Chen smiled continuously and motioned Jiutong to come forward.

Swish...

Jiutong nodded slightly, walked towards the starry sky gate with steady steps, and then quietly waited for the arrival of the starlight.

As a qualified housekeeper, improving strength is important, but the image must also be guaranteed.

After all, it's not his own face that is lost, but the master's.

Seeing Jiutong coming forward, the robot's computing rate finally dropped.

According to the data they collected, this dark silk spider did not rely on its body to fight, so the consumption of star power would not be particularly large.

At least it could not be compared with the three guys in front.

The starlight fell and enveloped Jiutong completely.

As the robot expected, Jiutong's absorption speed was not fast, and it always maintained a fixed rhythm.

Such a stable frequency, it was as if Jiutong was deliberately suppressing its absorption speed.

In fact, it was really like this.

"There is still time to allocate the strengthening area of ​​star power. It's terrible to max out the control."

Jiang Chen smacked his lips. Unlike the three people of Facai who wolfed down and ate as much as they could, Jiutong was completely strengthening his body according to his own needs.

Although it sounds troublesome, Jiutong's absorption efficiency is actually not slow at all.

It's just that with Facai's pearls and jade in front, Jiutong's absorption seems to be slow.

"Although it's a bit of a waste, it's enough to meet my needs."

Jiang Chen knew Jiutong's style and had no intention of asking him to change.

Jiutong was not this way. Instead of absorbing energy crazily, it is better to strengthen it at a fixed point and purify the blood to the maximum extent.

In this regard, he absolutely believed in Jiutong's authority.

But the accident happened at this time.

Just when Jiutong was about to finish absorbing, a shadow suddenly appeared under Jiutong's feet, and it expanded rapidly and spread directly to the entire starry sky gate.

The starlight vortex that had begun to close was disturbed by this shadow. Not only did it not shrink, but it was forcibly stretched open, releasing more and stronger star power.

"What's going on!"

Jiang Chen's heart tightened, but he found that Jiutong was emitting a completely different breath.

This breath was cold and terrifying, which made people unconsciously think of darkness and death.

Especially Jiutong's eyes, which were extremely indifferent, and there was no trace of the past at all.

"What is this, a demonic possession?"

Jiang Chen was a little puzzled. He tried to take Jiutong back to the farm, but he felt his soul shaken and found himself in a dark world.

Above the world, a cold eye was staring at him.

On the other side, the power of the stars was still being released crazily, but not a single bit was leaked out.

All these star powers were actually absorbed by the shadow under Jiutong's feet.

"Alarm, alarm, small world invasion detected, defense mode activated."

The whole room suddenly turned red, and the Starry Sky Gate Building outside also trembled, attracting the attention of many people.

"Earthquake? No, why is there an earthquake here?"

"Could it be that Tianqi University has come up with some dangerous research again and blew up its own territory?"

"It's very likely, do we have to run away quickly?"

"Well, you go first, I'll be there soon."

"Get lost!"

Everyone was talking, and only a few people realized what might have happened.

"With such a strong dimensional fluctuation, the creatures in the small world can't hold back."

Xiao Yan stepped on the sky and looked down at the Starry Sky Gate below.

"However, the president is really excellent. He can make those guys in the Shadow Realm so impulsive."

"It's almost time..."

As he said this, Xiao Yan suddenly turned his head and looked at a corner of Tianqi University.

In that place, a similar shadow aura flashed by.

"Interesting, interesting, there is actually a mouse hidden that this young master doesn't know about."

Xiao Yan's face showed a bright smile, and his slightly narrowed eyes opened a little.

"Since you are out, then this young master will play with you."

The black fog emerged and swallowed Xiao Yan's body, and the sky once again returned to its original appearance.

"Is this movement a problem with the star baptism?"

Ye Chen, who had already walked under the Starry Sky Gate, raised his head and felt the powerful energy fluctuations coming from the top floor, frowning slightly.

The runner-up also had the opportunity to use baptism, but the number of times was much less.

Because of Taiyin Turtle's injury, Ye Chen came to baptize early, but he didn't expect that someone had already made an appointment.

It's easy to guess who the person who made the appointment is.

Just making such a big fuss, this guy really can't live in peace anywhere.

"Well, this way I can better recover the lost glory."

Ye Chen's eyes flickered for a while, and then he retracted his eyes and walked into the starry sky gate.

Top floor.

Jiang Chen's consciousness only stayed in the dark world for a moment before returning to the original world.

But it was not because of his own reasons, but because he was awakened by a sharp pain.

After the star power erupted, Jiutong's body seemed to have become a transmission medium, constantly absorbing the star power.

At the same time, a strong force was released from the shadow below, constantly washing Jiutong's body.

Being washed by two forces at the same time, Jiutong's body and will suffered a huge stimulation.

Moreover, this stimulation ignored the defense of the contract and was directly transmitted to Jiang Chen.

"Jiutong's change is indeed not accidental!"

Jiang Chen covered his head and tried his best to contact the farm.

Although he only saw it once, Jiang Chen was sure that this was the same eye he saw when he saw the magic eye on Jiutong's back.

In other words, what he saw before was not an illusion, but some kind of creature had done something to Jiutong.

Jiutong might have been noticed by a certain sight from the shadows at the beginning of its birth! (End of this chapter)
