Chapter 28: Storm of Calamity
The power of the humanoid catastrophe beast far exceeded Shen Ling's expectations.
Perhaps this was not a Legendary Disaster Beast, but rather a True Spirit Level catastrophe beast, surpassing even the legendary tier?
Shen Ling had no answers, and given the current situation, it seemed unlikely that the catastrophe beast would provide any.
"An interesting human, a shattered soul, a frail body. Yet within you lies a spark of starlight. I despise this feeling!"
Telepathy!
Before Shen Ling could continue pondering, a terrifying wave of mental energy surged toward his consciousness.
"Weakling!"
"Ridiculous persistence!"
"Transform into my follower, and I shall grant you the power of rebirth, bestowing upon you true strength!"
"Let the flames that consume the world brew within your body, roaring through the sea of time, transforming into the ultimate radiance!"
...
Endless thoughts surged like a fountain, like a tsunami. In that overwhelming tide, Shen Ling felt genuine helplessness and fragility.
Is this my fate?
Was my rebirth merely to die in this manner?
I refuse!
I am unwilling!
A strong obsession surged within Shen Ling, firmly rooting itself in his mind as he fought alongside Shen Ling against the brainwashing from the Nameless Calamity Beast.
Reality is ultimately cruel.
Shen Ling's furious roar lasted but a moment before being drowned in a torrent of information, vanishing without a trace.
At a certain moment, Shen Ling's consciousness completely detached from this body, leaving only the heart within the shell to beat slowly.
I!
Who am I?
Though Shen Ling's consciousness was awake, it had lost all sense of soul; in that instant, he even forgot the meaning of "I."
"You shall be the great immortal true spirit, the supreme god born amidst storms and chaos, the first apostle of the storm disaster—Katonias. You are my progeny!"
"You will lead your entire clan to become my followers of Katonias; you shall become the glory of your people!"
"Your name is Stormborn - Caspedes!"
As these words were spoken, a massive dark cloud suddenly appeared in the heavens, shrouding the entire sky. Countless dark red lightning bolts ravaged the air, resembling a hellish scene.
Shen Ling mechanically recited Katonias's words.
“I am, Stormborn - Caspedes?”
“Hmm?”
Katonias let out a cold snort in response to Shen Ling's question.
However, Shen Ling unconsciously repeated, “I am? Casperdes?”
“No!”
Suddenly, Shen Ling clutched his head as a deep crimson hue flooded his eyes, and an icy killing intent that did not belong to any human descended upon him.
“I am, Shen Ling!”
The words were extremely crisp and chilling!
Yet, anyone who knew Shen Ling would not recognize him in that moment.
His scarlet eyes resembled those of a demon, disdainfully sweeping over Katonias, who felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
“How many times has this been?”
“Countless!”
“Ah Qing, wait for me a little longer. In this life, I will definitely find you!”
"Brother, in this life, I will definitely protect you."
Shen Ling's voice was extremely low; although he spoke with a blank expression, it was filled with overwhelming resentment and obsession.
"Who exactly are you?"
Katonias was clearly shocked by the scene before him, his body retreating imperceptibly by a step.
Yet Shen Ling did not even glance in his direction, continuing to speak to himself.
"How long has it been? A hundred years? A thousand years? This time, I must not fail again!"
As he watched the self-talking divine dragon, Katonias felt a growing urge to flee. This was clearly just an ordinary human, yet he had ignored Katonias's most proud soul attack, facing even his True Spirit Level self with such indifference.
This person was definitely not simple.
Run!
Even if he would be mocked by other disasters afterward, he had to escape!
In that instant, Katonias unleashed all his power.
"Disaster Domain: Eye of the Storm activated! Raging Sea…"
Katonias's words were abruptly cut off. Just as the Disaster Domain of the True Spirit Level catastrophe beast was activated, Shen Ling had seemingly teleported in front of him, effortlessly raising a hand to lock him in mid-air.
What on earth was happening?
Unease surged within Katonias; such a terrifying human seemed only capable of what the legendary figure could achieve.
Wait!
Katonias suddenly recalled something, his four eyes widening in shock.
At that moment, Shen Ling softly uttered a few words, and upon hearing them, Katonias instantly descended into madness!
The elemental wind energy within him spiraled out of control, and in that instant, Katonias actually contemplated self-destruction!
"You are the ultimate..."
Before Katonias could finish his sentence, a silver-white magic circle appeared, suppressing the raging wind elements within him.
Self-destruction was not an option!
As the silver light flashed, Katonias's expression froze, trapped in eternal stasis.
The Silver Magic Circle gently enveloped Katonias, slowly rotating.
About ten minutes later, the Silver White Array vanished, and Katonias's form had completely disappeared.
All that remained was a slender white longsword, entirely silver-white in color. Its material seemed to be a blend between metal and porcelain; rather than a weapon, it resembled a piece of art.
Shen Ling's crimson pupils gradually dimmed as he gazed at the setting sun on the horizon. A faint smile appeared on his face as he brought the sword down heavily onto the ground.
Before self-destruction, what Katonias heard was...
"Talent Jie Ling, activate!"
Under the starlight, Shen Ling lay quietly asleep.
Thanks to the Space Storm, although the area was in ruins, no catastrophe beast dared to enter this region.
Suddenly, Shen Ling's index finger twitched slightly, and then Shen Ling opened his eyes.
At first, his gaze was vacant and devoid of life, but then it seemed as if he finally remembered something, and he began to look around nervously.
Space Storm!
The terrifying humanoid catastrophe beast!
Where am I?
Am I still alive?
A series of questions left Shen Ling's freshly awakened mind in utter chaos.
Until, inadvertently, Shen Ling caught sight of the Silver-white Weapon on the ground. What is this?
For some reason, as he pondered this question, a sharp pain shot through his forehead, followed by a strange piece of information appearing.
Talent [Jie Ling] has successfully awakened!
[Jie Ling]: ???
What? What on earth is happening?
Why have I awakened a new talent?
Then, Shen Ling inexplicably picked up that weapon. Although there was no evidence, Shen Ling had a strange intuition that this weapon was related to the new talent.
Just as Shen Ling was about to continue exploring the details of the new talent, he found himself at a complete loss; he couldn't glean any information about it at all.
Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his forehead, and this time, Shen Ling received a mysterious message.
【Jie Ling】: Check after becoming a Master-Level Contract Spirit Master!
What kind of talent is this?
The prerequisite is actually to become a Master-Level Contract Spirit Master myself?
What a ridiculous joke!
However, no matter how hard Shen Ling tried, the only information he could obtain was this. Eventually, he gave up.
Forget it; being alive is good enough!
Shen Ling was quite open-minded. After all, with the existence of Soul Grazing Touch, he wasn't worried about whether he could become a Master-Level Contract Spirit Master.
What Shen Ling was most concerned about was how long it would take.
