Chapter 1334: G.o.d King Soul Slave
“I, Jiang Yi, swear upon the Heavenly Thearch that I will take Gu Mu to be my soul slave and return his freedom to him after five years. If I go against my word…”
Under Gu Mu’s directions, Jiang Yi cut his own finger and spouted a whole bunch of rubbish. To him, swearing was redundant. Could divine spirits really punish mortals?
What’s more, to mortals, they were the divine spirits who possessed the power to ruin heaven and earth. Could they be in charge of punis.h.i.+ng themselves? Who was the Heavenly Thearch they were swearing to anyway? Was he really almighty?
“Alright, lean in. My Chaos Seed is quite weak. The lava’s high temperature might destroy it!”
Gu Mu sent a voice transmission over to Jiang Yi, causing Jiang Yi to become more cautious. He frowned but did not walk over. What if Gu Mu wanted to have a final fight before dying? He pondered for a moment and then said, “Break your spiritual connection with your ring and throw it over!”
“…”
Gu Mu was rendered speechless. Jiang Yi was being a bit too cautious, wasn’t he? Gu Mu’s meridians had all been burned. There was no way he could employ his heavenly powers at all. How was he to attack Jiang Yi? Nevertheless, to keep Jiang Yi a.s.sured, he got rid of the spiritual imprint in his ring and used all the strength left in his body to throw it over to Jiang Yi.
“Very good!”
Jiang Yi finally let his guard down. Gu Mu’s weapons and valuables were all in the ring. He had medial-grade battle armor which Gu Mu could not break easily. At least he would not be able to kill Jiang Yi. What’s more, the moment he summoned his flames, Gu Mu would be burned to death. He believed that the latter would not have the guts to mess with Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi entered the State of the Union of Heaven and Man and kept a close watch on Gu Mu’s every little movement. The moment he acted out of the ordinary, Jiang Yi would kill him immediately. Jiang Yi leaned in, closing the distance between the two of them to just thirty meters. Gu Mu still did not do anything strange. Jiang Yi asked in a low voice, “Where is your spirit seed?”
Buzz!
Gu Mu’s head glowed, and a golden seed appeared. This was not a soul seal like the one in Stellarsky Domain. Jiang Yi paused and decided to take the risk and accept this spirit seed. He could do so because he did not think that this resembled a spiritual attack.
The spirit seed entered Jiang Yi’s divine artifact battle armor and body easily. Slowly, it made its way towards his own soul spirit. Jiang Yi kept his senses locked onto his spirit seed but did not feel any impending danger. He slowly relaxed and began preparing himself to deal with this spirit seed the same way that he was used to. He decided to fuse this spirit seed together with his primordial spirit, so that Gu Mu’s soul could dissipate with just one thought from Jiang Yi.
The golden spirit seed entered Jiang Yi’s soul spirit consciousness and slowly headed towards his primordial spirit. No problems cropped up. Jiang Yi’s primordial spirit lit up, prepared to swallow the spirit seed and control Gu Mu.
Right at this moment, something strange happened…!
The golden spirit seed flashed and congealed into a small being—Gu Mu. Gu Mu looked at Jiang Yi’s primordial spirit and laughed maniacally. “Hahaha, idiot! You have such a weak spirit, and you dared to try and take control of my spirit seed. The Rootless Water is boosting you, but you are still far too weak. Brat, go and die! When the Netherworld Generals ask you how you died, you can tell them… you died of stupidity!”
Swis.h.!.+
The small man that was formed by the spirit seed suddenly charged towards Jiang Yi’s own primordial spirit. A tyrannical force shot out from the little man. Although this was Gu Mu’s spirit seed, this was not a spiritual attack. Gu Mu was an upper-tier G.o.d King after all. His soul spirit was way too strong.
“This…”
Jiang Yi did not expect Gu Mu to plot something like this. As the strong force from the spirit overcame him, Jiang Yi began to get riled up. However, he calmed himself down at once. In a crazed tone, he shouted, “Nameless Divine Art, I’m counting on you!”
Buzz!
Jiang Yi’s primordial spirit glowed as three dragon patterns flowed away quickly. One by one, characters in Xiaozhuan emerged. An unparalleled, holy aura was emitted from those characters. It was almost as if the pure, holy glow was suppressing the evil.
“This… this… this is not something that the Earth Domain can possess. Brat, where exactly are you from?”
The little man that Gu Mu congealed from his spirit seed began to tremble. In the face of such an aura, his spirit seed became motionless, despite having so much spiritual power. What’s more, he felt as though the characters in Xiaozhuan alone could destroy his spirit seed easily.
“Die—”
Jang Yi’s soul spirit cried out in rage. The characters in Xiaozhuan kept flying toward Gu Mu’s spirit seed, attacking it relentlessly. Each time they collided, Gu Mu’s spirit seed would shake uncontrollably and then reduce in size. The spiritual energy left inside was becoming weaker and weaker. After one round of attacks, his spirit seed halved in size. His spiritual aura was also quite pathetic now.
“Don’t, don’t attack me anymore! I am completely subdued now. I am willing to become your slave. I will not mess around anymore.”
Gu Mu’s spirit seed kept sending messages to Jiang Yi, but Jiang Yi paid no attention to him whatsoever. He controlled those little characters in Xiaozhuan and caused them to keep attacking Gu Mu until the spirit seed was close to breaking down. It was then that he steered his primordial spirit out and swallowed the spirit seed whole.
This was too dangerous!
After Jiang Yi’s primordial spirit swallowed Gu Mu’s spirit seed whole, he formed a connection with Gu Mu’s soul spirit. It was not until Jiang Yi was sure that Gu Mu was now his soul slave that he heaved a sigh of relief. If he did not have the Nameless Divine Art, he would be in trouble now.
That’s not a cultivation technique of the Earth Domain? Could it be from the Heaven Domain, where the mysterious elder in the Fire Dragon Sword was from?
Jiang Yi found all these things mysterious, but he recalled what the mysterious elder said. Once he advanced to the ninth stage of the Nameless Divine Art and collected all the broken pieces of the Fire Dragon Sword, he would have enough power to fight the Netherworld Realm. Jiang Yi no longer felt so surprised. This mysterious elder must have been a formidable martial artist of the Heaven Domain when he was alive. He very likely arrived at what was known as the Demon-Killing Battle G.o.d level.
Jiang Yi opened his eyes and scanned Gu Mu coolly. The latter looked at him, pained, and said respectfully, “Master, Gu Mu has done you wrong. I tried to kill you in secret, but I did not think that you have such a n.o.ble background. You have such a precious treasure, and there are talisman characters in your soul spirit. I guess that even ordinary Heaven Emanations cannot do much harm to your soul spirit.”
“Heaven Emanations?”
Jiang Yi felt slightly surprised. Heaven Emanations were only referred to as such by Earth Emanations Pavilion. The Demon-Killing Pavilion referred to them as Demon-Killing Battle G.o.ds. These tens of characters in Xiaozhuan were this scary? Even ordinary Demon-Killing Battle G.o.ds’ spiritual attacks would not do him any harm?
He did not want to reveal too many secrets so he did not carry on the conversation. Instead, after mumbling to himself for a while, he said, “Let’s cut all this nonsense. Apart from you, are there any other people nearby? Are we in any danger now? If I die, you will die too, understand?”
“Of course, I know this. Master’s life is my life as well!”
Gu Mu sent a voice transmission back to Jiang Yi respectfully. He thought for a moment and said, “We should not be in any danger for now. Only I am from the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan in this area. Luo Lu and Luo Ting are dead now. There are still a few G.o.d Generals who are chasing us, but they dare not enter this lake. Master, I am going to recover first. Once I do, I can bring you out.”
“Alright!”
Jiang Yi nodded silently and retrieved a couple of recuperation medicines. He even shared some with Gu Mu. There in the Fire Lake, both of them sat cross-legged, healing themselves. Their faces were devoid of expression, but in Jiang Yi’s heart, he was beyond excited.
With a G.o.d King as his soul slave, he could soar into the skies once they got out of danger. He could roam the skies like a bird and roam the seas like a fish. He could easily locate Jiang Xiaonu and could even make Gu Mu think of a way to get Stellarsky Domain out of trouble with the Netherworld Realm. Once all of that was done, he could even think of a way to go to the Saint Spirit Domain to look for Yi Piaopiao!
Ever since he entered Earth Emanations Domain, he felt like he had no way out. He thought that he and Stellarsky Domain would both perish in the end. Now, while there was still no solution in sight, at least he had a G.o.d King as his soul slave. He could finally feel a shred of hope.
