My Beast Is the 12-Winged Angel Chapter 479 - 480: Contract with Lilith!
Previously on My Beast Is the 12-Winged Angel...
"Buzz——!!!"
Floating in the air, Lilith’s tightly closed eyelashes began to quiver violently.
The blood-red pillar of light that pierced the sky did not fade away.
Instead, it began to collapse inward, condensing layer by layer around her form.
Sudden, sharp cracking sounds erupted from her body, reminiscent of breaking jade or the emergence of a new life.
Having already retreated to a safe distance, Snow Woman stood alongside Long Zhenguo, Tushan Yueli, and the others, watching the spectacle in utter disbelief.
Long Qingyan and Feng Ni also turned their heads, their senses picking up on the shift.
It appeared that this member of the Blood Race was undergoing a mysterious metamorphosis fueled by Gu Xing’s feedback.
Yet, they were unable to determine the exact nature of the change.
Standing at the very front, Gu Xing expanded his divine perception to its limit, monitoring the internal fluctuations within Lilith.
Deep within Lilith’s heart.
At the very foundation of her Blood Race power, a single drop of dark golden origin blood was radiating an unprecedented, brilliant light!
This drop of origin blood served as the ultimate proof of Lilith’s supreme bloodline.
Now, however, it started to swell and distort, its very internal structure shattering only to be reorganized!
Countless delicate threads began to spread frantically from the origin blood.
In an instant, they saturated every inch of Lilith’s bones, every muscle fiber, and every single cell!
These threads hungrily consumed the divine energy that was flowing back from Gu Xing’s divine body.
Finally, catalyzed by this immense energy, Lilith’s bloodline began its evolution.
Myth Six Stars!
Myth Seven Stars!
...
"Boom——!!!"
With a final surge, she suddenly broke through to Myth Nine Stars!
The sky and clouds instantly shifted colors!
The crimson beam of light surrounding Lilith exploded with a thunderous roar.
It shattered into billions of shimmering, ruby-like petals of blood crystal, which drifted downward and dissolved before they could touch the earth.
Still suspended in mid-air, Lilith finally allowed her eyes to slowly open.
Her pupils had transformed; no longer blood-red or dark gold, they were now as deep and mysterious as the purest obsidian.
While her features remained largely the same—each one perfect enough to take one's breath away—there were subtle differences.
Her skin possessed the luster of white jade, yet it carried a faint, healthy crimson glow.
Her silver hair had lengthened, now cascading all the way down to her ankles.
The most dramatic transformation, however, was the wings at her back.
They were no longer a single pair of skeletal membranes; they had evolved into three magnificent pairs!
Her aura fully stabilized at the peak of Totem Tier Nine, leaving her just a hair’s breadth away from the Pseudo-God realm.
Lowering her head slightly, she stared at her elegant, flawless hands.
Wisps of dark red blood energy, appearing almost solid, danced around her fingertips.
Within that aura, a faint trace of divine quality could be felt, remarkably similar to Gu Xing’s own divine power!
This was a unique phenomenon born from the interaction between the divine energy and the Blood Covenant.
It granted her the ability to tap into a power that did not originally belong to her.
Snow Woman gazed at the reborn Lilith, who looked as if she had stepped out of ancient myth. Stunned, she finally managed to stammer out:
"...You, are you really... Totem Tier Nine?"
Lilith offered no immediate reply to Snow Woman.
Instead, her focus slowly shifted toward Gu Xing.
As their eyes locked, an indescribably heavy and complex tension filled the air.
Gu Xing looked upon the Blood Ancestor, who had been completely reshaped before him, his heart swirling with various emotions.
But...
It was a relief that she had finally awakened!
Lilith descended gracefully to the ground, pulling her three pairs of wings back into her body.
She stepped toward Gu Xing and tilted her head up slightly.
Her eyes, as vast as the midnight sky, searched Gu Xing’s face. Her crimson lips moved, and her voice carried a haunting, magnetic quality:
"Contract!"
Her voice was steady, masking any deep emotion.
Yet Gu Xing could sense the volatile storm she was holding back beneath that calm exterior.
At her words, Gu Xing was briefly stunned.
Then, he couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle.
Lilith had been by his side for a long time; it was indeed the right moment to establish a formal bond!
"Alright!"
Upon hearing his agreement, a spark of light seemed to dance within the dark red galaxy of Lilith’s eyes.
Without another word, she raised her right hand and used a fingertip to lightly slice her left palm.
A thin, deep line appeared, though no blood immediately spilled.
A moment later, a drop of thick, pure ruby-like ancestral origin blood—containing what looked like swirling nebulae—slowly welled up and hovered over her palm.
The moment this blood manifested, the surrounding space seemed to warp and sag under its weight.
The air grew thick as a potent life force, mingled with a shred of ancestral majesty, radiated outward in a powerful wave of energy.
Given Lilith’s current level, standard Beast Taming Contracts were useless.
Because of this, Lilith had directly summoned her most vital origin blood.
Only by anchoring a contract to this origin blood could Gu Xing establish a true connection with her.
Gu Xing’s smile vanished, replaced by a look of solemn focus.
He raised his own right hand, concentrating his mental strength.
A golden Contract Array slowly manifested at his fingertip.
With careful precision, he pressed the Contract Array into the drop of blood hovering in Lilith’s hand.
"Buzz——!!"
The instant they touched, the golden array was absorbed into Lilith’s origin blood.
As the ripples of the contract spread silently through the air, it was done.
Lilith had officially become Gu Xing’s Guardian Beast.
...
Deep within the heart of the Demon Realm.
This region was once a land of eternal shadow, possessing the highest concentration of Demonic Qi in the entire realm.
But things had changed...
Countless demons were now slowly lifting their heads.
Above them sat a scorching sun.
Liu Li and Vera had completely purged the Demonic Qi from the core of the Demon Realm.
The high-ranking demons living there erupted in howls of both fear and rage.
In the center of the demonic horde, Yuan stared fixedly at the sun in the sky, fury boiling in his chest.
"This... is a familiar aura!"
He could clearly sense Gu Xing’s presence.
It was the human who had once survived his strike.
Not only had that insignificant insect escaped death, but in a remarkably short span of time, he had reached a level of power that rivaled Yuan’s own.
Furthermore...
This human’s aura gave him a sensation he hadn't felt in eons.
That sensation...
Was the feeling of death!
He turned his gaze slowly toward the other nine Demon Gates.
He had been working tirelessly to unseal these portals.
Currently, they were nearly ninety percent open.
With just a little more time, they would be fully unleashed, and the world would be swallowed.
Yet, at this vital moment...
An insect had the audacity to invade the Demon Realm.
The safest course of action would be to wait and continue gathering power.
He should wait for all the Demon Gates to open, then use an unstoppable army to wipe out all resistance—including this unexpected variable—through sheer force and numbers.
But...
"How can I stand idly by while an insect mocks me?"
To suffer an attack without responding was an intolerable stain on the pride of a Demon God!
"All members of the Demon Race, hear my command!"
Yuan’s voice thundered through the minds of every demon.
"Bare your fangs and claws...
Protect the honor of the Demon Race!"
