Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest

The copper-forged ring on Luo Xiu's finger flashed with a layer of lavender luster, and countless phantom tentacles spurted out, forming a big hand.

Morris's soul, which was reddish and constantly swelling and shrinking, was dragged out of the ring by the phantom's big hand.

Luo Xiu pressed his palm, and Maurice's soul was squeezed and melted into the etched wolf skin.

The etched wolf skin began to tremble violently, and the abyss drawn on the skin was inscribed, and at the same time it emitted an extremely strange and dangerous dark luster.

Luo Xiu took a step back and watched the changes in front of him closely.

At this time, the soul and the carrier are merging and assimilating... Luo Xiu knew that this was dangerous to a certain extent and would also require a not short amount of time.

Luo Xiu silently counted his heartbeat.

When the heart contracts and beats for the 108th time, a large amount of purple mist-like mist erupts from the purple lines etched on the wolf's skin, and gathers and merges into a giant purple cocoon.

"This will be considered a success..."

Luo Xiu breathed a long sigh of relief. The "Abyssal Beast Summoning" has reached this point and has passed the stage with the highest failure rate.

And after that, is the most exciting thing——

Blind box opening time!

Although Luo Xiu has used etched wolf skin to limit the range of the abyssal beast summoned, the specific type of abyssal beast summoned cannot be determined until the summoning is completed.

After a while, cracks began to appear on the surface of the cocoon.

The soft sound of "Beep-Beep-Beep" echoed, and the cocoon shell began to shatter and peel off like glass.

A black and red claw broke out of the cocoon first!

Then, a wolf-shaped creature with a head like thick fog and a coat as eye-catching as blood appeared in Luo Xiu's field of vision.

——It is an abyssal beast with the appearance of a wolf, but it is twice as big as an ordinary wolf; its front half is condensed into substance by some kind of power, while its back half is insubstantial and is completely composed of phantom and blood mist.

At this time, it was carefully observing everything around it with a pair of golden eyes.

"Shadow-Eating Wolf..."

Luo Xiu whispered softly, although this was not the strongest abyssal beast that Luo Xiu expected to summon, but for Luo Xiu who only had 1 point of luck, this was already a pretty good result.

And just as he successfully summoned the Shadow-Eating Wolf, a summons panel about the "Shadow-Eating Wolf" popped up in Luo Xiu's field of vision.

"Tsk...tsk..."

The shadow-eating wolf let out a deep roar from its throat, and its phantom tail drooped slowly as it slowly approached Luo Xiu.

According to the level conversion, the Shadow-eating Wolf is equivalent to an extraordinary person whose basic attributes have reached the second level of destiny, and belongs to the type of "monster", that is, "warcraft".

When the shadow-eating wolf came to Luo Xiu's feet, it bent down and sniffed, then stuck out its tongue and began to lick the upper of Luo Xiu's boots.

This was an expression of goodwill. Luo Xiu squatted down and stretched out his hand to gently touch the shadow-eating wolf's back.

Although the Shadow Eater Wolf has flame-like fur, it feels quite smooth and soft when touched.

Following the caress of Luo Xiu's palm, the Shadow-eating Wolf began to half-close his eyes, and softly uttered the sound of "Ooooooooo~" from the corner of his mouth.

This made Luo Xiu have some kind of illusion for a moment...

It feels like what I'm touching is just a husky with different coat colors...

However, after coming into contact with the "Shadow-Eating Wolf", based on the reaction of the Shadow-Eating Wolf, Luo Xiu also put down his guard of "possible backlash".

The Shadow-Eating Wolf is an extremely ferocious abyssal beast, but once it is tamed, accepted and identified with its master, it will become quite docile. This is Luo Xiu's experience in his previous life.

"Be good, be good..."

Luo Xiu gently stroked the shadow-eating wolf's back while pondering, "What should I call you...Xiu Gou? Xiaoha..."

"Awww?" The Shadow-eating Wolf tilted its head, stopped licking the instep, and looked at Luo Xiu with a suspicious look, expressing its protest against these names.

After thinking hard for a while, Luo Xiu finally found inspiration from the mythical stories of his previous life and settled on a suitable name.

"It's decided!" Luo Xiu clapped his hands together, "I'll call you Fenrir from now on."

"Ooooo!" Fenrir wagged his tail happily, as if to express his love for this name.

From Luo Xiu's point of view, he gave this name to the Shadow-eating Wolf because he had high hopes for it...

He hoped that Fenrir would become stronger as soon as possible and eventually become as powerful a mythical beast as the "Giant Wolf Fenrir" in the previous life of Norse mythology.

But it's too early to think about this now, there are more important things to do right now.

Luo Xiu never forgot that there was still an enemy that had not been dealt with!

If the blood disciple named Fold was let go, the subsequent events would also have unpredictable deviations.

"Fenrir, let's go..." Luo Xiu stood up and took Fenrir out of the abandoned house and walked towards the shadows of Dawn Town.

...

At the same time, in a deep alley in Dawn Town.

"Hu, hu..."

The heavy panting sound echoed in a shadow somewhere.

The figure under the dark cloak was panting, and his body was covered with eye-catching and terrifying scars.

"Damn it, damn Morris..."

The figure in the cloak was the blood disciple Fold. He felt the danger gradually approaching behind him, and in his hand he tightly held the bone whistle that Morris had given him not long ago.

"What bone-breaking whistle... What power to lend me..."

Fold's eyes widened, and he cursed fiercely:

"I blew this damn bone whistle, but nothing happened... Nothing happened!!!"

Soon after sneaking into Dawn Town, Fold encountered the enemy he least wanted to meet.

——Intis, the traitor of "Blood of Thorns" who stole the "Two-Faced Doll" and escaped!

He was ambushed by Intis on the spot and was seriously injured. He escaped from the nearly ravaged battle under the cover of night and hid in this remote alley.

From the way Intis attacked, she had already prepared an ambush for the people chasing her!

At this moment, Intis, who followed the blood trail, was getting closer and closer to the place where Fold was hiding.
