However, even in such a seemingly desolate scene, the overwhelming aura of dominance could not be concealed.
Indeed, it was a Twelfth-Level Beast; even after being dead for hundreds of years, its energy field remained unparalleled.
If it weren't for its demise, we probably wouldn't even be able to approach within a hundred meters of it.
Although Lin Yao's Eleventh-Level Psychic Ability had followed her from her past life, her current body was too weak to dare unleash it. With her current Third-Level physical abilities, if it weren't for the protection offered by Scientist Zheng against this energy field, she might not have been able to get within several hundred meters.
Commander Zhou Zhu of the stationed troops observed for a while and noticed a particularly striking bone among the pile of dirty bones. He casually picked it up.
Is this a skull? It looks somewhat like a snake, but why does it have an extra horn?
Scientist Zheng glanced over and remarked that it resembled the skull of a dragon-like creature.
Seeing his interest, Zhou Zhu eagerly handed it over, "Scientist Zheng, would you like to take a look?"
Zheng nodded noncommittally, preparing to take it when suddenly a flash of light burst forth from the bone, shooting straight towards Lin Yao's forehead.
Before anyone could react, the light vanished into Lin Yao's brow, and her eyes instantly lost their luster; she stood frozen in place.
What... what is this? Zhou Zhu was utterly shocked.
After pondering for a moment, Scientist Zheng furrowed his brow and said, "Hiss... if I’m not mistaken, this should be the legendary psychic entity invasion."
Psychic entity invasion? The crowd gasped in astonishment.
When a beast advances to Fifth Level, there is a certain probability that it will awaken intelligence and become a commanding beast capable of leading other beasts.
These intelligent commanding beasts will condense a soul core in their brains to protect their psychic entities. As their level increases, their intelligence rises as well, and their soul cores become more powerful.
Some powerful beasts can preserve their psychic entities within their soul cores for extended periods under special circumstances until they find an opportunity to invade another person or beast's mental sea, devouring their psychic entity and occupying their body.
It seems that this high-level beast's soul core sensed that this little classmate was the weakest, which is why it chose her, Zheng lamented.
Isn't someone whose mental sea has been invaded by a beast's psychic entity in great danger? Zhou Zhu said cautiously as he looked at Lin Yao, who stood rigidly in place. Should we prepare in advance?
Scientist Zhang waved his hand dismissively. "No need to rush. Even though this beast was high-level in life, it's been dead for so many years; its psychic entity should be quite weak now. It may not even be able to overpower her."
"But..."
"Don't worry; there are so many of us here," he reassured them. "Even if it does manage to invade successfully, it will still be limited by this body and won't suddenly become something we can't handle!"
With Academician Zheng's words, no one dared to act rashly; they could only keep a close watch on Lin Yao. At this moment, Lin Yao's mental realm was indeed under siege by the spiritual entity of the White-scaled Serpent, just as Academician Zheng had said.
However, as soon as the White-scaled Serpent's spiritual entity invaded, it was intercepted by the system, which blared an alarm: "Invasion detected! Invasion detected! Requesting interception! Interception!"
Lin Yao confirmed the interception, and her consciousness entered her mental realm. In the instant the interception command was issued, a transparent bubble suddenly appeared in her mental sea, trapping a mini snake-like spiritual entity inside.
The White-scaled Serpent thrashed about, trying to break free from the bubble, but it couldn't budge it at all. Realizing its efforts were in vain, it stopped and transmitted a message to Lin Yao: "Little girl, I am the spirit of the Beast God. If you don't worship me quickly, how dare you let this thing trap me!"
What the hell is this Beast God's spirit? What era is this White-scaled Serpent from?
Lin Yao ignored it and attempted to communicate with the system: "Can you erase this spiritual entity's consciousness?"
The system fell silent.
Lin Yao thought to herself: Sometimes this system feels like a low-level idiot!
With no other option, Lin Yao decided to take matters into her own hands. She tried to channel her mental power into the bubble and successfully entered it. When she attempted to channel her mental power back out, that went smoothly too. She confirmed that this bubble was specifically designed to trap the invading spiritual entity.
In the end, she would have to fight this battle herself. Lin Yao focused her mental power and pressed down on the White-scaled Serpent's spiritual entity.
Sensing the murderous intent, the White-scaled Serpent dared not act tough anymore and quickly begged for mercy: "If you let me go, I'll tell you where my treasure is hidden!"
"You've been dead for how many years? The world has changed beyond recognition; how could you possibly find anything!"
Lin Yao was too lazy to waste more words with it and directly tightened her mental power.
Only then did the White-scaled Serpent's spiritual entity panic: "Wait!"
The villain perished due to excessive chatter.
Lin Yao was determined not to delay, as it could lead to hidden dangers. With a powerful mental strike, she extinguished its consciousness and then consumed the unconscious mental entity with her own spiritual body.
Before immersing herself in digesting the mental entity, Lin Yao opened her eyes and said, "I have already eliminated that mental entity. I will report back after I finish digesting it!" Once she received a nod of approval from Academician Zheng, Lin Yao felt reassured and returned her consciousness to the sea of spirit to digest the mental entity of the White-scaled Flood Dragon.
The mental entity of the White-scaled Flood Dragon appeared small but was incredibly pure, containing some special elements that seemed capable of elevating mental power. Her spiritual body, inherited from her past life, was already formidable; if it truly ascended, it could lead to her own destruction.
However, at the critical moment of digestion, Lin Yao found she had no control over the situation. She watched as her mental power expanded rapidly, threatening to burst her spiritual sea. The system, which had seemingly crashed, began to sound an alarm: "High pressure detected in the spiritual sea. Should intervention occur?"
"Intervene!" Lin Yao gritted her teeth and uttered the command. Immediately, she felt that powerful energy being drawn away, circulating around her body before vanishing deep within the spiritual sea.
As the explosive pressure dissipated, Lin Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to carefully digest the remaining mental energy. Within the mental power of the White-scaled Flood Dragon were fragments of memories; as she digested the mental energy, she also absorbed these memory fragments.
From the memory fragments of the White-scaled Flood Dragon, Lin Yao learned that although both alien beasts and star beasts were classified as beasts, they were actually two completely different species with distinct genetic backgrounds. Star beasts were born from special life energy generated deep within the universe and could naturally traverse space. They could survive for many years without food or water, relying solely on absorbing energy from the cosmos.
In contrast, alien beasts evolved from ordinary beasts or were bred from their predecessors. Except for those with special abilities, alien beasts generally could only survive on planets. However, when an alien beast reached a breakthrough in its life limits, it had a chance to ascend to a higher existence known as a Void Alien Beast.
