Long Haochen’s gaze was firm as he watched the Earthfire Lizard’s transformation. His right hand was clenched into a fist, and although blood continued to flow, his hand was very steady.

Layers of golden light continuously washed over the Earthfire Lizard’s body. White smoke billowed from its wounds, which clearly showed signs of festering. Evidently, the Earthfire Lizard, with its dark constitution, was enduring immense pain from the impact of the Light energy.

If not for the fact that Long Haochen had established an equal contract with it, the vast Light power contained within Long Haochen’s Child of Light physique would likely have destroyed it.

The muscles in the Earthfire Lizard’s cheeks rippled, and traces of blood continuously seeped from the corners of its mouth. Despite its body trembling violently, its four claws remained firmly embedded in the ground, preventing any movement.

It raised its head high and faced Long Haochen. The man and beast met each other’s gaze, their eyes filled not only with determination but also with a hint of warmth. Yes, they both caught a glimpse of the warmth of kinship in each other’s eyes.

Blood continued to flow, and Long Haochen’s face grew increasingly pale. Weakness had begun to set in. Even with a spiritual power of a thousand, he was still human. A human’s blood loss exceeding one-third is fatal. At his current rate of blood loss, he would soon reach this limit.

Time ticked by, and both Ye Hua and the one-eyed elder were extremely tense.

The one-eyed elder had been guarding the Holy Mountain for many years, but he had never encountered a situation like this before. There were several possible outcomes. The first was that the Earthfire Lizard couldn’t withstand the baptism of Light blood and would die suddenly. The second was that it would complete the baptism of Light blood and become a Light-attributed magical beast. In that case, Long Haochen’s goal would be achieved. The third was that if the Earthfire Lizard couldn’t endure the current pain, it would run away on its own, and everything would be in vain. The fourth was the one that the one-eyed elder and Ye Hua were most reluctant to see: Long Haochen losing too much blood and being unable to hold on. That way, not only would the Earthfire Lizard fail to evolve, but Long Haochen himself would suffer life-threatening damage from the great loss of vital blood.

Long Haochen’s originally steady right hand gradually began to tremble. His already fair skin had now turned a sickly pale, and its original moist luster had long disappeared. The flow of blood from his wrist had begun to slow, indicating not only the self-healing of the wound but also the massive loss of his own blood.

But strangely, the Earthfire Lizard’s body was no longer trembling. A faint golden light gradually appeared on its originally pitch-black scales, and the festering wounds healed at an astonishing rate. Clearly, it had endured the worst and its physique was rapidly changing.

The most peculiar change was the contract runes on Long Haochen and the Earthfire Lizard. The originally purple contract runes gradually turned purple-gold. Although still mainly purple, the addition of that faint gold made the entire rune look much more dazzling. The layer of purple mist on it also faded somewhat, and one could faintly see the astonishingly complex patterns on the rune.

Long Haochen swayed and nearly fell.

“Not good, Haochen can’t hold on any longer.” Ye Hua, who was already on edge, couldn’t help but rush forward.

“Wait a little longer.” The one-eyed elder raised his hand, stopping him from rushing forward.

Long Haochen raised his left hand and pressed it against the Earthfire Lizard’s neck, supporting his body. At this point, he could hardly see anything in front of him. The intense dizziness from blood loss made him feel like he could fall at any moment.

Never abandon, never give up. Long Haochen clenched his teeth and silently chanted these six words in his heart.

Although his time with the Earthfire Lizard had been short, only a brief moment, this was the first time he had experienced the effect of an equal contract. That sense of kinship, like family, and the Earthfire Lizard’s dependence on him due to fear, deeply touched his heart.

Long Haochen had no siblings. In recent years, Li Xin had always treated him like a sister. When he made the final decision just now, he simply thought about what Li Xin would do if she faced such a crisis.

What is a partner? Sharing life and death is a true partner.

He looked at the Earthfire Lizard’s eyes, blurred by his vision. At this moment, Long Haochen no longer found it ugly.

At this point, Long Haochen’s blood loss had exceeded one-third. If he were not already a Grand Knight, his life would be in danger.

Although the one-eyed elder stopped Ye Hua, he was also prepared to act at any time. Once Long Haochen’s vitality showed signs of decline, he would definitely act at the first moment to stop him from continuing.

“Roar—” A cry filled with excitement rang out, and a layer of golden light emerged from the Earthfire Lizard’s body. All traces of darkness and ferocity had vanished.

A golden light shot out from the one-eyed elder’s hand, landing precisely on Long Haochen’s wrist wound, instantly healing it.

Long Haochen’s body went limp, and he fell to the ground, but he didn’t pass out completely, because he wanted to see if he had truly succeeded.

A wet tongue gently licked his face, and its pair of red eyes were full of radiance, like two rubies embedded in them.

The purple-gold contract rune on its back quietly disappeared, and the wounds on the Earthfire Lizard’s body had completely healed. The shield-shaped scales radiated a layer of faint golden light.

Ye Hua sighed inwardly and slowly stepped forward, intending to feed Long Haochen some essence-nourishing pills. He knew that although Long Haochen had succeeded, he had paid a great price. Such a loss of vital blood would probably take a year or two to recover from.

“Roar—” The Earthfire Lizard suddenly let out a low roar towards Ye Hua, who was approaching, its pair of red eyes full of hostility. A huge fireball spewed from its mouth, heading straight for Ye Hua.

“Hmm?” Ye Hua was startled and raised his spiritual light shield. With a loud bang, it blocked the fireball’s attack.

“Don’t approach it yet, it seems to be doing something.” The one-eyed elder said in a deep voice.

The Earthfire Lizard’s fireball stopped Ye Hua from advancing, and its gaze returned to Long Haochen’s weak face. At this moment, suddenly, a purple light emerged from its back, shooting straight to the top of the cave.

This purple light was released in a linear shape, as if its back had suddenly split open. After the light pattern appeared, the Earthfire Lizard raised its head again, but this time, a faint purple intent rippled in its pair of red eyes. This purple intent was cold and noble.
