Beast Taming, my intelligence updates daily.

Chapter 391 The Bible of the Dead
Damn it, I was careless again.

Ye Bai clenched his fists secretly.

Why didn't I think of the fact that the Great Gray's soul was injured?

He only cared about whether Big Grey's lifespan would be affected and whether the Death God's curse had been lifted, but he never paid attention to whether Big Grey's soul would be affected.

According to intelligence provided by the Yan Kingdom, if a pet beast with a damaged soul tries to force its way to the seventh rank, it is very likely that its soul will collapse, leading to its death and dissipation.

The simplest and most effective way to replenish one's spirit is to find rare and precious natural treasures that contain spiritual essence.

To repair the Great Gray's soul using a spirit, it's best to use a treasure of the same elemental origin as yourself.

Ye Bai didn't want his longtime companion to die in an accident.

Whether the soul is damaged or not, each city's pet guild has a palm-sized sacred soul stone.

You can tell just by getting close to the Divine Soul Stone and observing the intensity of the light it emits.

I realized I had made a mistake by not taking the soul test.

Fortunately, the Thor Crystal repaired Big Gray's soul, otherwise Ye Bai would have felt guilty for the rest of his life.

Big Grey was sitting cross-legged on the ground.

It is silently absorbing the Thor consciousness within the Thor Crystal.

Despite being struck by lightning, Big Gray remained completely unaffected.

Thunder can return to its original form, filling the source of the Great Gray.

It's fair to say that Big Gray, having reached the seventh tier, is already the strongest of Ye Bai's pets in terms of combat power.

Thunder is one of the most powerful laws in the world.

With Thor's Axe and Thunder Armor in hand, Big Grey is destined to become a figure like the Thunder Lord in the future.

However, to Ye Bai's surprise, the Thunder War Bull also followed Big Gray to the mountaintop.

Despite being riddled with holes by the thunderbolts, it still walked up step by step.

It seems that the power of role models is incredibly strong.

It was precisely because they had a stabilizing goal that Thunder Bull persevered to the end.

It is precisely because of this that the bloodline of the Kui Niu has been fully awakened, and the Thunder War Bull is constantly transforming in the direction of the Kui Niu.

However, Ye Bai couldn't estimate how long this improvement would take; it might only take a few minutes, or it might take ten days to half a month.

For Ye Bai now, all he has to do is wait, wait for the final ripe fruit to appear.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ye Bai plans to compile several papers and publish them on the platform.

For example, the evolutionary process of the Rose Queen and the origin of the Ice and Fire Rock.

These findings were only published in the United States, and Ye Bai has not yet had time to compile them into a paper.

However, since it was published in the United States, Ye Bai didn't need any supporting materials; the United States would naturally vindicate itself.

Otherwise, the Global Youth Research Conference would become a complete joke.

This is being broadcast live globally; only a fool would deny Ye Bai's research findings on the spot.

Ye Bai can use these papers to accumulate enough points at Beijing University and quickly complete the doctoral program.

To graduate with a doctorate, you only need 100,000 points at Beijing University to obtain a doctoral degree certificate.

As for becoming a lecturer, associate professor, or professor at the school, that comes at a different price.

Meanwhile, news that Ye Bai was cloning the Kui Niu spread through secret channels.

Soon, other underground organizations also learned of this news.

The Kui Niu also poses a great threat to these underground organizations, especially those skilled in necromancy or dark magic.

The mere sound of the Kui Niu is enough to terrify the spirits of the dead, causing them to break free from their decaying bodies and return to the embrace of heaven.

The necromancer had the greatest influence.

The necromancer's advantage lies in the undead army, and its disadvantage also lies in the undead army.

Moreover, the necromancer had used up most of his savings in order to break through to the eighth rank.

Now, it's nothing more than a pitiful pauper, poor to the point of having nothing but money.

Its proud undead army sacrificed most of its units to the ruler of hell in exchange for a chance to break through its own limits.

Once the Kui Niu is cloned, the necromancer's death is not far off.

This is definitely aimed at me, and now is when I am at my weakest.

If his former army of the undead were still around, the necromancer would naturally not be so afraid.

After all, even if the Kui Niu is very restrained, it is still afraid of the horde of undead tactics.

However, he currently has a small number of undead under his control, which puts him in a rather passive position.

The necromancer was frightened.

If it wants to survive, it needs the help of its companions.

So the necromancer took this opportunity to gather everyone together.

In the underground base of the Evangelical Fellowship, the air was filled with blue-green soul flames, and countless wailing torches made of skulls emitted bursts of blue light.

The faint light barely illuminated the endless cold and deathly silence of the underground cave.

A faint smell of sulfur filled the air, and every now and then, a viscous liquid would drip down from the stalactites pierced by skulls above.

Accompanied by a low, continuous dripping sound, a cluster of starlight silently appeared in the air.

“Every time I come to the evangelical church’s base, I feel disgusted by it.”

"However, this is the necromancer's carefully constructed lair."

"Necromancers will feel absolutely safe here."

The Star Sage covered his nose, accelerated the nebula's speed, and left before the liquid dripped down.

In fact, the founder of the Gospel Society was the necromancer. Whipping Girl, Demon Swordsman, and Star Sage all joined the Gospel Society later and became its four leaders.

The necromancer has lived for an unknown period of time.

It replaced its skull with a body made of adamantite, mithril, and copper.

In this secret lair, the necromancer also hid a ninth-tier forbidden spell.

The Star Sage learned this information through his omniscient and omnipotent talent.

The Star Sage, also known as Chu Han, used her divinity to create a third talent.

At the same time, she also split herself into three clones: the Sun Sage, the Moon Sage, and the Star Sage.

Each clone has a different focus in terms of ability.

Furthermore, the clones can transform into each other.

The Whipping Maidens are followers of the goddess of lashing and suffering; they take suffering as their doctrine and the whip of thorns as their religious instrument.

They are the creators of misfortune and disaster, turning victims into believers by creating one tragedy after another.

Behind the Demon Swordsman is a monarch from the abyss, whose power originates entirely from the Demon Sword.

This demon sword, made from the spine of a demon, is the true form of the demon swordsman.

The body hidden beneath the helmet is merely a puppet possessed by the Demon Sword.

The cave walls are covered with intricate magical runes.

They appeared and disappeared in the dim light, with streaks of black light moving across the rock face.

Once an enemy invades, these magical runes will be activated instantly, blasting the infiltrating rats to death on the spot.

The ground was covered with countless bones and dust.

In the corner, skeletons clad in steel armor stood like silent guards, arranged in an orderly fashion.

Their eye sockets are hollow, yet they constantly watch their surroundings. Behind them is a steel shield nearly two meters high.

The weight of the shields and armor pressed down on the skeleton guards, causing their bones to make a cracking, tooth-grinding sound.

The blue-green soul fire within the skull is watching over everything around it.

If an enemy invades, they will immediately revive and become a shield to block the enemy.

The Star Sage piloted the nebula to its end.

It wasn't that she didn't want to use spatial magic to get here.

Instead, the necromancer had already set up an anti-flight array on his lair, so anyone who planned to use spatial teleportation would be directly transferred to the Mariana Trench, 10,000 meters below.

The pressure at 10,000 meters can instantly compress a seventh-level expert into a compressed biscuit.

At the center of the base was a huge black altar, covered with dried blood, exuding a chilling aura.

The altar was surrounded by tall stone pillars, with magical veins like green vines wrapped around them, shimmering with a faint, eerie green light.

This is the source of the necromancer's power, and also the place where it summons and enslaves the souls of the dead.

The skeleton mages, their robes billowing, were expressionless, their hands gripping their scepters tightly, intently performing some forbidden ritual.

Occasionally, from some bottomless dark corner, a slight tremor would come, like a prisoner struggling unwillingly.

The Star Sage eventually appeared at a round table made of gold.

"Necromancer, could you grant us permission to use spatial teleportation?"

“Every time I come to the Gospel Church’s headquarters for a meeting, it feels like I’m exploring an underground den of demons.”

"I almost fell into a trap several times."

"Star Sage complained loudly."

The necromancer clasped his hands together, and the soul fire within his skull appeared remarkably calm.

"Star Sage, please forgive me, my strength is inferior to the three of you."

"Of course I have to protect myself. I don't want to let someone attack my base because of this vulnerability."

"What if someone turns my head into a chamber pot?"

The necromancer's words made the Star Sage laugh in anger.

The four leaders of the prestigious Gospel Church are surprisingly 'steady'.

Her gaze fell on the golden scepter held in the necromancer's hand.

The necromancer, having lost his Grave Whip, found a new Golden Bone Scepter.

The back of the skeletal scepter was adorned with the wings of angels and demons.

However, the demonic patterns decorating it are filled with an aura of hell.

Even the blue flames burning on the scepter are hellfire.

It seems the necromancer has colluded with the ruler of Hell.

The whipping girl was polishing her thorn whip with a Dementor.

The Dementors, pierced by thorns, emitted a painful and desperate wail.

It's utterly absurd that a Dementor, a monster feared by all, would be used like a rag to wipe the Thorn Whip.

The demon swordsman crossed his arms and closed his eyes to rest, but he was standing very close to the whipping girl, clearly indicating that the two were allies.

However, the demon swordsman wore a demon helmet, which concealed all his expressions.

A long blade forged from a demon's spine hung at his waist, and countless eyes were watching his surroundings.

The Star Sage calmly observed everyone's expressions.

The necromancer's fear and unease.

The girl was whipped and dismissed with disdain.

The indifference of the demon swordsman.

"Necromancer, what brings you all here this time?"

"The Star Sage said lazily."

This guy only shows up when he needs something.

Every time the necromancer summons everyone for a meeting, he has no good intentions; he always tries to trick people into charging into battle.

He always spends his energy scheming, so naturally his strength is at the bottom among them.

Aside from his genuine lack of talent, this guy's luck is also really bad.

The necromancer failed to obtain the Blood Saint's inheritance last time, causing him to fall short of his goal. This was probably the only time the necromancer suffered a loss.

The internal divisions within the Gospel Church intensified, with the Whipping Girl and the Demon Swordsman forming one faction, the Necromancer another, and the avatars of the Three Sages of the Sun, Moon, and Stars yet another.

However, this discord was only in secret; in public, everyone remained quite restrained.

After all, if rumors of discord arise, the Gospel Church will be targeted by other forces and subsequently swallowed up by them.

"Necromancer, you didn't give me the Necromancer's Bible from last time."

"Are you perhaps planning to go back on your word and profit from it?"

The Star Sage knows how to reopen old wounds.

The necromancer felt as if he had been shot in the knee.

How dare you say that? I made so many promises when I asked you for money and valuables, and you all made such good promises, but at the last minute, you all had your own reasons.

They dare to ask me for the Bible of the Dead now? That's just too much!

The soul fire within the skull trembled violently, nearly splitting into several halves.

The necromancer was clearly so angry he was about to go insane.

However, the necromancer quickly regained his composure.

"Star Sage, I'll give this to you later."

The Star Sage sat atop the nebula and continued his taunts, "How long is 'later'? Give me a specific time."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't mind summoning a celestial behemoth to completely shatter your body, leaving only a skull."

"I've taken a liking to your head; I'd like to turn it into a cute and adorable ornament."

The Star Sage grinned, and the necromancer could feel the Star Sage looking at him with ill intent.

She's absolutely not joking; she means what she says.

After all, that was the style of the Star Sage. Even the necromancer regretted bringing this crazy woman into the Gospel Society.

He appears calm and collected, but is actually more eccentric than anyone else.

Facing the Star Sage who was only one step away from the ninth rank, the necromancer pretended to swallow hard, then obediently, cutely, and helplessly picked up his necromancer staff and tapped it on the ground.

Two beams of black light shot out from the eye sockets of the staff and converged at a single point in mid-air.

A pitch-black book made of bones fell from it.

"This is the Bible of the dead."

The necromancer, somewhat reluctant, picked up the book.

He is currently only at the early stage of the eighth rank, which is far too far from being a Star Sage.

If a direct conflict were to occur, the Star Sage might suppress himself on the spot.

Unless the whipping girl and the demon swordsman can support him.

"As expected of a girl with three talents, her cultivation progress is indeed terrifying."
