With the Witch and Barbarian tribes suffering the losses of multiple god-grade powerhouses, their top-tier strength needed to be replenished as quickly as possible.
The four Witch Grandmasters possessed Soul Power that was clearly stronger than that of the Barbarian Grandmasters, meaning they could form contracts with more divine beasts; this was good news. In addition, the three primeval forests had been breached, and the Primordial Demonic Qi could devour blood Qi to grow itself, which meant high-tier desolate beasts could not be left here. Desolate beasts above grade eight would all become targets for capture.
Both the Barbarian and Witch tribes possessed methods to control desolate beasts, but for powerful desolate beasts, they were unable to imprison their souls and could only suppress their Cultivation base. Suppressing a Cultivation base was detrimental to the growth of desolate beasts while also limiting their combat potential, so Zhou Chuan applying soul imprints was undoubtedly a better method.
