Chapter 214: The Greatest Weakness
The Blue Shark, without any orders, looked at the Sea Breeze Tribe member flying upward and the swamp crocodile rapidly approaching.
It turned and fled.
The aura of the swamp crocodile already made it feel frightened.
Without orders, it had no reason to stay.
Whoosh!
Yi Chen waved his hand.
The spiritual sword flew out from the storage ring and swiftly pierced the Blue Shark’s abdomen.
However, he did not activate the chilling power within the spiritual sword; he merely pierced the Blue Shark, causing blood to pour from the wound and its speed to slow significantly.
"Stop it! Don’t let it escape!"
Yi Chen transmitted this message to the swamp crocodile below through his divine consciousness.
The swamp crocodile immediately sped up, catching up to the injured and slowing Blue Shark.
Ahead, fierce beasts resembling dolphins, along with the Giant Fish covered in spikes lurking deep in the sea, all chose to turn and run.
These powerful fierce beasts were not something they could contend with.
"It seems these marine fierce beasts are not tamed and have no feelings for their master," Yi Chen observed, shifting his gaze to the headband in his hand.
Gently tearing it, he revealed three yellow spirit mines inside.
His divine consciousness wrapped around the spirit mines, trying to test their properties.
However, he discovered that, with his current Stage of Separation Level One divine consciousness strength, he still couldn’t penetrate the spirit mines to test their characteristics.
There was no doubt that the grade of these spirit mines was extraordinarily high.
Fortunately, this outcome was within his expectations.
If the spirit mines weren’t of exceedingly high quality, they wouldn’t possess the ability to control powerful fierce beasts without being stimulated by spirit power.
"It should take one spirit mine to control one fierce beast," Yi Chen reasoned, his divine consciousness enveloping the spirit power and flowing into the grain-sized spirit mine.
He tried to transmit his thoughts into this tiny spirit mine.
Below, the Blue Shark suppressed its injuries and the fear of being blocked by the swamp crocodile, leaping out of the water.
Yi Chen’s eyes sparkled with excitement.
Indeed, it worked.
Although he still didn’t fully understand why, he could almost confirm that as long as he transmitted his thoughts into this yellow spirit mine, he could control a marine fierce beast at any time.
He tried again, injecting his divine consciousness into a larger and a smaller spirit mine, transmitting his thoughts.
The two marine fierce beasts that were fleeing turned around and gathered around the Blue Shark, following Yi Chen’s command.
Such a high-quality spirit mine allowed him to control the marine fierce beasts with astonishing ease.
Knowing full well that it was almost like sending them to their doom, the two marine fierce beasts still obeyed, actively running to stand before the swamp crocodile.
Yi Chen’s attention shifted to the Sea Breeze Tribe member he controlled in midair.
After thinking for a moment, he decided to abandon the idea of personally interrogating him.
In the future, if he had time, he could create a skill that could directly probe into others’ memories.
This type of skill would be a true nemesis for enemies who refused to submit even to severe torture.
If taught exclusively to personnel from the Intelligence Organization and the four armies, it would be immensely useful.
As for now, even though he trusted his interrogation methods, he was too lazy to waste time on it.
He looked at Bai Ruo Xin and asked, "Have your people from the Intelligence Organization followed us?"
Bai Ruo Xin nodded, "They are nearby, and there are all types, including experts in interrogation."
"Send someone over to bring this Sea Breeze Tribe member back and see if he can reveal the origin of the spirit mine used to control fierce beasts and how to control marine fierce beasts through it."
Yi Chen instructed.
"Okay!"
Bai Ruo Xin nodded and took out a bamboo tube from her storage ring.
Spirit power poured into it.
Boom!
An oval-shaped spirit fruit, no larger than a marble, shot out.
It soared hundreds of meters high before suddenly exploding, bursting forth with red light like fireworks.
Soon, within the range of Yi Chen’s divine consciousness, a member of the Intelligence Organization appeared, flying in.
Once Bai Ruo Xin briefed the arriving member, Yi Chen released his divine consciousness, allowing the member to take the Sea Breeze Tribe member away.
Calculating for a moment, he enveloped the weakest fierce beast, resembling a dolphin, with his divine consciousness while trying to invade its body and transmitting his thoughts into the smallest spirit mine:
"Let go and do not resist!"
The fierce beast sensed a mysterious Perception Ability attempting to enter its body.
While it was struggling against this intrusion, Yi Chen’s command arrived.
Though reluctant, it decided to stop resisting.
Immediately, Yi Chen’s divine consciousness faced less resistance, easily passing through its life magnetic field and entering its body.
Soon, he discovered a grain-sized, silver-white spirit mine stuck to the beast’s stomach.
He forcibly used his divine consciousness to pull the spirit mine away from the fierce beast’s stomach.
Then, he controlled the spirit mine to rise continuously until it exited the fierce beast’s body.
Chirp chirp…
As the silver-white spirit mine left its body, the fierce beast immediately abandoned Yi Chen’s previous command to stay in place. It twisted its waist and quickly escaped.
Yi Chen then transmitted his thoughts into the grain-sized yellow spirit mine. The fierce beast continued to flee frantically, showing no reaction at all.
Using the same method, he extracted two spirit mines from the other two marine fierce beasts.
Both were silver-white and the same size as the yellow spirit mine used to control the marine fierce beasts.
After the silver-white spirit mines were removed, both marine fierce beasts ran away without a trace.
Of course, this was only possible because the swamp crocodile did not intercept them.
Without needing the Sea Breeze Tribe members to explain, Yi Chen could guess that these two types of spirit mines, which even he could not test, should belong to accompanying spirit mines.
The silver-white spirit mine had an adhesive property and could control others’ brains.
The yellow spirit mine could activate the silver-white spirit mine through thought.
Moreover, with different sizes of spirit mines, their Control Power would surely differ as well.
The three pairs of spirit mines were clearly used by powerful fierce beasts, utilizing larger spirit mines for control.
In contrast, weaker fierce beasts only needed smaller spirit mines for control.
What Yi Chen could not deduce was just the specific usage of these two types.
However, it didn’t matter.
Because he already knew the biggest drawback of this control method.
The user!
Just like he mentioned when teaching the Beast Taming Technique, it is best not to control fierce beasts that are far beyond one’s strength realm.
That would make the beast tamer the primary target of attack.
In fact, they could even become the target of the fierce beasts.
The situation in the Sea Breeze Tribe was no different.
These two high-grade spirit mines, when combined, allowed ordinary tribe members to control powerful fierce beasts.
But the controllers themselves were not strong.
They might even just be ordinary people.
This meant that with Yi Chen’s strength realm and divine consciousness coverage, as long as he was within one kilometer of the user, he could make the Sea Breeze Tribe members lose control of the fierce beasts.
He could even turn around and control the fierce beasts himself.
Within the range of his divine consciousness, he could manipulate any object using spirit power.
With the strength of his divine consciousness, he couldn’t control powerful fierce beasts.
They could easily break free from his control using energy.
But controlling objects weighing dozens of tons was a simple task.
The Sea Breeze Tribe members did not have enough strength to escape his grasp.
If the Sea Breeze Tribe had no other means, he was absolutely confident that he could take down the Sea Breeze Tribe.
