Counterattack System appeared when I'm already At The Mahayana Realm

“What?” Jiang Li wasn’t particularly knowledgeable in the study of magical beasts. His experience was limited to his time battling with them during the Nascent Soul Stage in the White Marsh Empire. He knew of their weaknesses and how to dissect them swiftly.

However, that was all. His understanding of the magical beasts could not match that of the White Snow Spirit.

Using her divine sense, the White Snow Spirit scanned the entirety of the hospital and nearby residential areas and discovered that all the magical beasts suffered from the same issue, a congenital deficiency, preventing them from awakening their spiritual intelligence.

“No, that’s not it. It’s not just this parrot. All the magical beasts in this vicinity are unable to develop spiritual intelligence due to innate deficiencies. They all seem to be duller than before!” she said.

“What do you mean by ‘duller than before’?” Jiang Li wondered. Could dullness be classified into levels?

“To give an example, magical beasts that have not awakened their spiritual intelligence are like one-year-old babies while in the Qi Cultivation Stage, driven purely by instincts. Furthermore, those in the Nascent Soul Stage are similar to three to five-year-old children, relying on a mix of instincts and limited intellect to act.”

“However, the magical beasts in this world, whether in the one-star Qi Cultivation Stage or four-star Nascent Soul Stage, remain trapped in a state comparable to a one-year-old baby, with absolutely no growth in wisdom!”

White Snow Spirit felt anger. She might not govern these magical beasts, but they were her counterparts regardless, and she could not help but feel sympathy for them.

Who could be so cruel as to alter these beasts, condemning them to a lifetime devoid of spiritual intelligence?

Moreover, the perpetrator was incredibly subtle. They could alter the beasts by tweaking the most minute parts of their bodies, hence, if White Snow Spirit hadn’t been a White Marsh, naturally sensitive to all sorts of things, even she might have failed to notice it.

Jiang Li frowned. So, it wasn’t just the humans of the Lingxi world that were facing problems; the magical beasts were too.

It was as if the humans of the Lingxi world had signed a master-slave pact with fools, considering them as masters.

The humans were oblivious, and the beasts were unaware of their foolishness. Only Jiang Li and the others, being outsiders, felt disgusted.

“It should be the doing of an extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon,” Jiang Li realized. It wasn’t just humans that extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons feared; they feared the occurrence of a certain entity born out of great fear in the face of death.

All creatures with intelligence will form a kind of belief on the verge of death; not only humans, but magical beasts will as well.

Therefore, the extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons didn’t spare the beasts either.

“Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon again, disgusting!” White Snow Spirit snorted indignantly. She had once used her innate talent, “No Secrets,” to help Jiang Li identify the methods that the extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons had utilized in the Jiuzhou world.

Things like spreading doctrines in secret, altering people’s beliefs, disseminating false information – all were done subtly and surreptitiously. Absolutely vile!

If they have the guts, then fight openly.

“The issue must lie with the ancestors of the beasts. It has been passed down through their lineage, generation by generation. All have turned into fools,” analyzed White Snow Spirit. The power of the magical beasts came from their bloodline. Skills and strength could be passed down through it, which seemed convenient. However, if any issue were to arise at the root of the bloodline, it could result in a catastrophic disaster.

Just like the magical beasts in the Lingxi world.

“According to historical texts, humans originally lived harmoniously with magical beasts, cooperating with each other for mutual convenience and safety. However, about two thousand years ago, the magical beasts started to go berserk and attack humans. This lead to the animosity between humans and beasts.”

“The problems with the bloodline of magical beasts probably arose around that period.”

Jiang Li found the situation to be quite problematic.

Seeing Jiang Li’s concern for Professor Feng, the White Snow Spirit decided to feed the parrot a few more drops of White Marsh blood. Instantly, the parrot’s mental state seemed clearer, and it seemed to understand many things.

“Thank you for your blood,” the parrot bowed to thank the White Snow Spirit.

Professor Feng also regained consciousness, his eyes filled with a myriad of emotions as he looked at the three individuals.

“Your blood still works?” Jiang Li was surprised.

Rolling her eyes, White Snow Spirit responded, “A few more drops of White Marsh blood are enough to awaken a block of wood. However, this isn’t a permanent solution, as the number of magical beasts in this world is vast. I can’t possibly feed every single one of them. Even at the Body Integration Stage, I can’t afford to donate so much blood.”

“How about we ask Alchemy Peak for some blood-making pills?” Elder Tang Xing suggested.

“…Can you please act like a human being?” White Snow Spirit, without words, retorted.

“Big brother Jiang Li, who are these two people…” Xia Chao and Qiu Shi came to the hospital ward, and found Jiang Li standing with two strangers, they seemed to be lead by him.

However, compared to Jiang Li, the beautiful White Snow Spirit was more eye-catching.

“Friends from the Jiuzhou world, they are all in the Body Integration Realm.” Jiang Li introduced briefly, as mentioning the Dao Sect and White Marsh Empire would be meaningless to Xia Chao and Qiu Shi.

The two of them gasped, Body Integration Realm was equivalent to the mythical six-star contract beast, capable of plucking the stars and capturing the moon. This terrifying ability is beyond words description; only knowing that the activity of a six-star contract beast or magical beast brings calamity to both humans and beasts alike.

They were strategic weapons. Nobody dared to use them.

“Oh, this little tiger is a variant of Qiongqi. It’s not as good as a purebred Qiongqi cub, but it’s quite decent. However, this green bug is interesting, the dragon’s blood in its body is quite strong,” White Snow Spirit noted the difference in the green bug.

“I fed it,” Jiang Li responded.

“Oh, that’s quite common then,” With that, White Snow Spirit immediately dismissed the green bug as ordinary.

Xia Chao wanted to stick up for his little green.

“This green worm might help us awaken the spiritual intelligence of the magical beasts,” suggested White Snow Spirit after examining the green bug, sparking a new idea.

“You mean, relying on the characteristics of the dragon’s bloodline?” Jiang Li also thought of it.

Sharing a glance, they both smirked in unison.

Only Elder Tang Xing was left in confusion, failing to understand what was going on.

White Snow Spirit explained, “The dragon’s bloodline can stimulate the latent potentials of other race’s bloodlines and grant the magical beasts a potential to surpass their ancestors.”

“Moreover, the Dragon Clan can also pass on their advantages to all the magical beasts in their domain.”

“I don’t need to divide my White Marsh blood among the magical beasts living in the Four Seas. They all fall under the jurisdiction of the Dragon Clan. If the Dragon Clan possesses spiritual intelligence, they can also grant the magical beasts in the Four Seas spiritual intelligence.”

This is partly why Four Seas’ Dragon Clan has never been a part of the White Marsh Empire.

“Is the Dragon Clan that strong?” Elder Tang Xing was somewhat surprised.

Jiang Li said, “Don’t underestimate the Dragon Clan. They are top-tier within the immortal beasts, and are indeed heads of the Immortal realm.”

The might of the Dragon Clan could be inferred from the legacy left to the Four Seas Dragon King: the Dragon King Immortal Tool.

Even the White Marsh Empire didn’t possess an Immortal Artifact.

Magical beasts rely on bloodline — that is, they rely on the prestige of their ancestors. Hence, those possessing the Dragon Clan bloodline, in essence, have had their ancestors serve as emperors, which is incomparable to others.

“We train this green bug to become a true dragon, unite all magical beasts, and transform the entire world into its territory. Then, we utilise the unique capabilities of the dragon’s bloodline.”

“But the dragon’s bloodline alone may not be able to imbue all magical beasts with spiritual intelligence. Most likely, it would only neutralise the congenital foolishness of the magical beasts. When that time comes, along with my White Marsh blood, all magical beasts will be able to embody spiritual intelligence. Perfect plan,” White Snow Spirit put forward the complete plan.

“Why can’t we directly invite the Four Seas Dragon King?” Elder Tang Xing, captivated by his contract research and lacking understanding of magical beast bloodlines, asked.

Jiang Li shook his head, “No, becoming an immortal forms a watershed, the same applies to the demon clan. Prior to becoming immortal, the Dragon Clan can only establish their territories in their birth world. Only after becoming immortal, and roaming the world, can they establish territories in other worlds.”

“Therefore, the organization has decided that you have to save the world,” Jiang Li patted Xia Chao’s shoulder.

Xia Chao was dazed. He had just come to visit Professor Feng, but now, the hefty responsibility of saving the world was thrust onto his shoulders.
