"For me?"

Yue Mingming held a Demon-Sealing Soul Artifact in each hand, looking surprised and stunned on the spot.

Having been chosen for the main lineup of the Red Cloud Team, he was about to represent Guanglin Base City in the National College Glory Battle, and resources were definitely not lacking. All departments would offer rich rewards. Among them, the main lineup could select two Demon Spirits with Golden Soul Skills as needed.

But in his hands were clearly two Demon Spirits with Purple Gold Soul Skills.

Their value was ten times higher than those with Golden Soul Skills.

Yue Mingming's Lifebound Demon Spirit was of the Space Attribute, making Spatial Soul Skills suitable for him to absorb, and he was naturally familiar with various space-type Demon Spirits.

He immediately recognized the two Demon Spirits in his hands.

The one in his left hand was a faint silver bird that looked somewhat ethereal inside the Demon-Sealing Soul Artifact.

This was an Eighth Grade Void Bird.

A rare existence among space Demon Beasts, it wasn't very strong, yet it held a Purple Gold Soul Skill, "Dimension Summon."

Out of ten Summoners, six refined Void Birds.

The Demon Spirit in his right hand was also precious, a grey Flood Dragon.

This was an Eighth Grade Flood Dragon Nether.

It held the Purple Gold Soul Skill [Space Sense], a Soul Skill suitable for Summoners; its effect was to enhance spatial perception abilities.

These two Soul Skills were what Yue Mingming had always dreamed of but dared not hope for.

He had seen the prices online; a single Void Bird cost 2.5 billion, while the Flood Dragon Nether was slightly cheaper, costing 2 billion.

In total, nearly 4.5 billion for the two Demon Spirits.

The mere price was enough to deter him, and given the rarity of space-type Demon Spirits, without Guanglin's major forces collecting them, even with money, they were hard to acquire.

"Aren't you touched, surprised!"

Seeing Yue Mingming looking as though he was about to cry, Little Sister Dong said with a chuckle.

"Did you guys exchange your own Demon Spirits for these two for me?" Yue Mingming asked.

The reward for the main lineup was two Demon Spirits with Golden Soul Skills each, but he had two with Purple Gold Soul Skills, and they were of the Space Attribute, several times more precious than regular Purple Gold Soul Skills.

Evidently, Lin Feng and the others sacrificed their own Soul Skills, or even some resources, to get these for him.

"What's so special about this Yue Mingming?"

Yu Qiao wondered.

He, too, had sacrificed his two Demon Spirits, feeling somewhat discontent.

If Lin Feng hadn't told him Yue Mingming's true identity as a Summoner, he would not have been so generous.

If Yue Mingming were a Summoner, it would undoubtedly greatly enhance the team's overall strength, making battles more diverse.

Yu Qiao didn't understand why, as a Summoner, Yue Mingming had such a rough life.

As a Legendary Profession, Summoners were in demand, and even with slightly lesser talent, many powerful forces would be willing to nurture them.

There was no need to hide oneself.

Could it be that his Soul Power was too weak, or was there some special reason preventing him from contracting with Demon Beasts?

If so, it would be understandable.

At this moment, Yu Qiao finally understood why Yue Mingming could join Lin Feng's team.

"A Summoner unable to contract with Demon Beasts? An Ancestral Demonization Half-beastman, and a Soul Martial as demonic as Lin Feng. This team, only Little Sister Dong seems normal," Yu Qiao muttered to himself.

"Alright, no need to get emotional, stop overacting, come with me for a bit." Lin Feng stood up.

Yue Mingming hurriedly followed.

"Where are they going?" Yu Qiao asked in confusion. Was it necessary to leave just to absorb Soul Skills?

Dong Yunan shook his head.

Lin Feng and Yue Mingming went into a secret room and closed the door.

"It's quieter here; absorb the Demon Spirit here." In the empty room, Lin Feng said.

"Brother Feng, these two are too precious; I'm not sure I can successfully absorb them!"

Yue Mingming hesitated a bit.

Though these were the Demon Spirits he'd dreamed of, if absorbed, they could change his life.

If there were a 100% chance, Yue Mingming would absorb them without hesitation.

Becoming a Summoner would make everything worthwhile.

Even though the price was high, if he became a true Summoner, he was confident he could earn it back.

But he wasn't too optimistic.

Space Soul Skills had always had a low absorption success rate, even if his Lifebound Demon Spirit had a Space Attribute, the success rate was at most one-third.

"You've already got them, why speak such nonsense? The unknown space Demon Spirit within you can communicate with the Exotic World, proving its strength. Refining it alone shows your excellent Soul Power talent. If you lack confidence, you certainly won't absorb it," Lin Feng said, and Yue Mingming, embarrassed, dared not argue.

Though Yue Mingming was a year older than Lin Feng, he, like Dong Yunan, showed some reverence in Lin Feng's presence.

"I understand."

Yue Mingming's previously hesitant gaze gradually became firm.

Yes.

He had the Demon Spirits, only the last step remained; only by successfully absorbing them could he not let down Lin Feng and the others.

"In a moment, I'll help you, don't be startled," Lin Feng said.

Yue Mingming was stunned and puzzled; could one even help with refining Demon Spirits?

Why would he be startled?

Though Yue Mingming was puzzled, Lin Feng didn't explain, and he didn't ask more.

Sitting cross-legged, Yue Mingming opened the cover of the Demon-Sealing Soul Artifact, reached out, and held the silvery bird in his hand. The Void Bird struggled in his right hand, letting out sharp, piercing cries. Taking a few deep breaths, he waved his right hand, sending the Demon Spirit into his Soul Sea.

Under Lin Feng's gaze, Yue Mingming closed his eyes; at first, his expression was calm, with no strong reaction. But a minute later, his brows furrowed, veins bulging on his face, seemingly enduring pain, and his whole body shook uncontrollably.

"Is he going to give up?"

A thought flashed in Yue Mingming's mind. Just as he felt desperate, thinking he was about to fail, he suddenly felt something cover his Dantian, and a familiar voice whispered by his ear: "Close your eyes, do not open them."

Yue Mingming's heart trembled, and before he could react, an evil, cold, and violent aura enveloped him, making him shiver.

"What the hell!"

Instinctively, Yue Mingming wanted to open his eyes, but he remembered Lin Feng's warning.

In the next moment, he was shocked to find that the Void Bird, which had been struggling violently in his Soul Sea, wilted, trembling as if it had met a natural enemy.

Is it Brother Feng?

At this moment, Yue Mingming finally understood what Lin Feng meant by helping him earlier.

What kind of ability is this?

A Soul Skill?

What Soul Skill has such an effect?

"Why are you blanking out? Hurry up and refine," Lin Feng scolded.

Yue Mingming snapped back to reality, quickly activating the Soul Skill to devour the Void Bird.

The Void Bird's resistance clearly weakened, speeding up the devouring process. At this pace, he had an 80 to 90% chance of successfully devouring it.

Standing beside Yue Mingming, Lin Feng's short black hair turned red and grew longer, and in his originally black pupils, two dark red vortices spun continuously, appearing extremely sinister.

A dark red ghostly shadow wrapped around him like a ghostly aura, making him appear as if clad in Flame Armor from afar.

On this Flame Armor, the fire flickered slightly, creating a visual effect that was both impressive and domineering.

However, this seemingly powerful Flame Armor had no real power, neither high temperature—it even exuded a trace of coldness.

"Hehe..."

With Nightmare Possession, Lin Feng heard a low murmur, both clear and sinister.

It was... the voice of the Nightmare.
