Interestingly, the drop of blood didn't extinguish, nor did it ignite the ghost blood beast's body. Instead, the unique drop of fire blood was swimming around, trying to fuse with the beast.
This process didn't last long before the drop of fire blood melted. The flames didn't go out either. Instead, they glowed brightly as they flowed into the ghost blood beast's body.
It was as if the blood veins in the ghost blood beast's body were outlined in thin air.
It looked like the veins on a leaf, intricate and complicated, but they all converged into a single point at the center.
Lin Jin's drop of blood became the center of the ghost blood beast. The fire patterns spread across the veins as if they were about to gain complete control over the ghost blood beast.
However, both Lin Jin and Shu Xiao Lou knew that forming a blood pact with a second pet beast, especially a Rank 5 one, wasn't going to be easy.
Sure enough, in the next moment, the originally calm Ghost-Blood Beast suddenly swelled up and let out a terrifying roar. The aura it released was like a gust of wind, uprooting the trees in the distance.
At the same time, a ray of bloody light shot out from the ghost blood beast's body, coalescing into a scythe that slashed at Lin Jin.
It looked like it was going to cut Lin Jin in half.
Lin Jin quickly invoked a spell and used the power of their blood contract to forcefully stop the ghost blood beast's counterattack. However, it was still a dangerous situation. If he made the slightest mistake, he would be killed by the ghost blood beast instead.
Shu Xiao Lou wanted to help.
However, she knew that outsiders couldn't help when it came to blood contracts as the chances of failure would be higher.
However, Shu Xiao Lou wouldn't just watch Lin Jin die. If things really didn't work out, she would still lend a hand. But now wasn't the time.
Besides, Shu Xiao Lou wanted to see how Lin Jin planned to solve this problem. If he could solve it, it would mean that Lin Jin's blood contract method was even better. If not, Shu Xiao Lou could tell him her method and lend him a hand.
The ghost blood scythe was now only a few feet away from Lin Jin. His expression was solemn.
Lin Jin knew full well how difficult this task was. The deformed man from before had to rely on the two of them to barely maintain his balance. Now that he was controlling the ghost-blood beast, Lin Jin was alone and he had only formed a second blood contract. The difficulty of controlling the Rank 5 ghost-blood beast was close to impossible.
Lin Jin was well aware of this, but the perfect blood contract method provided by the Museum of Deadly Beasts could solve this problem.
"Xiaohuo!"
Just then, Lin Jin suddenly shouted.
The next moment, Xiao Huo leaped out from Lin Jin's arm as if he had received Lin Jin's order and knew what to do next.
After Xiao Huo came out, he roared at the sky and actually forced out a drop of blood from between his brows.
Blood of Fire Wolf.
Then, he injected the drop of wolf blood into the struggling Devil-Blood Beast.
Seeing this, Shu Xiao Lou's eyes widened in disbelief.
"What, what does this mean?"
She didn't expect Lin Jin to force out the blood essence from his first blood pact pet beast to fuse with his second. Before this, she wouldn't even have dared to imagine this happening.
"Doing this won't help. Is he trying to use the blood contract with the first pet beast to suppress the second? That's impossible, it's just a trick to deceive yourself, there's no meaning to it. "Shu Xiao Lou was knowledgeable and immediately rejected this possibility.
The reason was simple. If they were to use the power of their blood contract, the first pet beast would be the same as the blood contract owner. There wouldn't be a one-and-one-equal-two outcome.
Because essentially, the first pet beast had already fused with its owner. They were one and the same.
However, Shu Xiao Lou knew that with Lin Jin's capabilities, he wouldn't do something so meaningless on purpose. There must be a deeper meaning behind this.
Shu Xiao Lou pondered for a moment and suddenly, a possibility came to her mind.
"That can't be."
Her eyes were filled with shock and ecstasy after figuring out the problem. After all, she was a painting spirit who had studied beast appraisals for five hundred years in the Beast Appraisal Hall. In terms of knowledge and ability, she was definitely one of the best beast appraisers in the world. Lin Jin wasn't just making things up when he thought she was a Rank 6 beast appraiser.
"I understand now," Shu Xiao Lou mumbled to herself. Xiao Lou mumbled to himself, "Lin Jin isn't using the strength of his first pet beast to suppress his second pet beast. He's trying to make the first pet beast form a blood pact with his second pet beast. To think there's such an unbelievable solution in this world. No, it's still missing the key. The cultivation method is the one that allows a blood pact beast to form a blood pact with another pet beast. This is the key. Lin Jin must have it or he wouldn't be doing this."
Once Shu Xiaolou figured it out, his gaze toward Lin Jin immediately burned with passion.
Just like how she had asked Lin Jin for the pulse-seeking technique a few days ago, she was now even more interested in this secret technique Lin Jin possessed.
If Lin Jin wasn't at a critical juncture in forming a blood contract with his second pet beast, she might have pounced on him and asked for his guidance. As long as Lin Jin was willing to teach her, she would be willing to do anything.
For example, teaching him everything she knew about beast appraising.
Shu Xiao Lou was like a cat on a hot tin roof. She was getting impatient but she knew that this was not the time to disturb Lin Jin.
Just then, there was a commotion in the distance. Several flying beasts were approaching from afar.
Shu Xiao Lou sensed it immediately. She frowned and her figure flashed. In the next second, she was already in front of the group of people.
These people were the teachers of Heavenly Jade Academy.
Among them was Zhong Zifeng.
Besides Zhong Zifeng, the other teachers of the academy, Appraiser Yan, Appraiser Ouyang, and the others were standing beside them.
The teachers were enraged that someone was suddenly standing in their way.
"This person must be one of the thieves who snuck into the academy and attacked Teacher Lin." Panting with rage, Appraiser Ouyang was about to make a move when Zhong Zifeng stopped him.
"Everyone, stop! This isn't a thief but a senior of the academy," Zhong Zifeng shouted when he realized it was Shu Xiao Lou. Then, he stepped forward and bowed.
"A senior of the academy?" The other teachers were stunned. Some of the quick-witted ones seemed to have realized something as they looked horrified. Still, they quickly followed Zhong Zifeng and bowed respectfully.
Heavenly Jade Academy had existed for more than six hundred years. Naturally, there were all sorts of legends surrounding it. It was common knowledge that Heavenly Jade Academy had a Rank 5 beast appraiser.
Everyone knew this. Moreover, this important person was now the State Preceptor of Heavenly Jade Kingdom. His name was Sima Qing.
State Preceptor Sima was Mister Zhong's junior.
He was a prominent figure in Heavenly Jade Academy. However, there was also a rumor that Heavenly Jade Academy actually had another Rank 5 beast appraiser.
However, this Rank 5 beast appraiser was extremely mysterious. Not many people knew about him, but in the past, important figures of the academy had mentioned this powerful senior.
Seeing how careful and respectful Zhong Zifeng was, everyone naturally thought of the legend of the Five Rings.
