Chapter 767 - 123: The Saint Master’s Might (Part 2)

This Holy Spirit’s innate Spirit Flame differs from the ferocity of the Nine Heavens True Flame but carries an inherent suppressive power. The moment the flame descended, it completely burned away the remaining True Spirit Yin Water on the Seven-Colored Luan Bird, firmly locking its Divine Soul and physical body, rendering it utterly immobile.

The Seven-Colored Luan Bird couldn’t even let out a scream, only able to tremble within the golden Spirit Flame, its feathers being gently yet domineeringly roasted by the flame, gradually losing their luster. Its overall aura was forcibly suppressed to the lowest point, it had been completely subdued.

"Luan!" The Saintess of Cangyue looked on, her eyes filled with rage, her heart feeling as if it was being tightly gripped by an invisible hand.

She could clearly sense the aura of the Seven-Colored Luan Bird rapidly waning, completely imprisoned by a domineering power, unable even to transmit a plea for help to her.

She turned her shocked gaze toward Li Ji’an, her eyes full of horror, resentment, and a trace of uncontainable fear: "You actually... have an innate Holy Spirit?"

"Cut the nonsense, hand over the Beast Taming Token!" Li Ji’an frowned slightly, and the Little Fire Spirit immediately acted again.

"Screech~" The Seven-Colored Luan Bird immediately let out another wail.

The Saintess of Cangyue gazed at the powerless Seven-Colored Luan Bird in the golden flame, her eyes full of struggle, finally gritting her teeth, retrieving a cyan Jade Token from the Qiankun Ring, it was indeed the Beast Taming Token.

As soon as she took out the Jade Token, it emitted an aura of the same origin as the Seven-Colored Luan Bird.

Li Ji’an flicked his finger, a surge of Magical Power swept over the Beast Taming Token, landing it in his hand. His Divine Sense penetrated it, indeed sensing the Divine Soul Mark of the Seven-Colored Luan Bird, promptly injecting a wisp of his Divine Soul into it without hesitation.

After completing all of this, he signaled to the Little Fire Spirit: "Withdraw the Spirit Flame."

The Little Fire Spirit then restrained the golden Spirit Flame around itself, swiftly returning to Li Ji’an’s Dantian.

The Seven-Colored Luan Bird, relieved of the flame’s suppression, collapsed to the ground, its aura weak, lacking even the strength to move.

Li Ji’an gently guided the Beast Taming Token, a stream of spiritual light flew from the Seven-Colored Luan Bird, merging into the Jade Token, while the bird’s form turned into a stream of light, completely absorbed into the Beast Taming Token.

"Now, the life of this Luan Bird is in my hands." Li Ji’an put away the Beast Taming Token into the Qiankun Ring, his tone indifferent, "As long as you make the slightest move, I only need to move my Divine Sense, and it will instantly explode and die."

The Saintess of Cangyue gritted her teeth, yet dared not speak out.

Li Ji’an did not stop, he slowly walked in front of the Saintess of Cangyue, his fingertips gathering a wisp of strange reddish Qi and Blood power, pointing it at her forehead.

This wisp of Qi and Blood power instantly permeated her body, hiding deep within her Essence Blood.

"What have you done to me?" The Saintess of Cangyue was filled with a mix of anger and shock.

"Thousand Mechanisms Blood Attraction." Li Ji’an calmly explained, "This attraction is merged into your bloodline, linked to my Divine Soul. Even if you miraculously break free from the Nine Dragon Lock, as long as I have a thought, the Blood Attraction will erupt, making your bloodline reverse and die, more painful than the destruction of the Divine Soul."

With successive shackles clamped on, the last trace of resistance in the heart of the Saintess of Cangyue was extinguished, her face turning ashen pale.

"Now, take me away from Yuanzhou." Li Ji’an withdrew the Coiled Dragon Staff, quietly retrieving the Invisibility Puppet at the same time.

Despite the piercing pain in her meridians, the Saintess of Cangyue tenaciously shook her head, her voice wrapped in despair: "Impossible! When pursuing you earlier, I activated the Yuanzhou Four-Square Grand Array with the Holy Daughter Order.

Now the domain force of the entire Yuanzhou is linked, the Ziyuan Array is already covered by the Four-Square Grand Array, there is simply no way to open a separate gap."

"That’s not the answer I want!" Li Ji’an’s eyes turned cold, his fingertips slightly moved, the Nine Dragon Lock abruptly tightened, simultaneously triggering the Thousand Mechanisms Blood Attraction in her body.

"Ah!"

The Saintess of Cangyue groaned in pain, hurriedly explaining: "After activating the Four-Square Grand Array, there are only a few fixed gates to pass through in the entire Yuanzhou.

The safest and easiest is Beichen Immortal City where we came from, I can mobilize permissions to let us pass."

"Beichen Immortal City?" Li Ji’an frowned, looking at her with cold eyes.

Seeing Li Ji’an’s deeply furrowed brow, apparently not believing her words, the Saintess of Cangyue was increasingly anxious, taking the initiative to say: "I am willing to take the Great Heart Demon Oath! If there is any falsehood, I will suffer backlash from the Heart Demon, my Cultivation will waste away, and I will have a bad death!"

While speaking, she began forming the oath technique to prove her sincerity.

Li Ji’an watched her make the oath with cold eyes, but he was unconvinced.

During his time in the Great Marsh Cultivation Realm, he had studied some tomes and knew that Nascent Soul True Monarchs’ Divine Sense can forcibly break the Great Heart Demon Oath, especially by the Middle Stage. This oath is useless to Nascent Soul grandmasters and naturally insufficient to put him at ease.

"Uncle Master Cangfeng went after Yuanbao True Monarch and won’t be back for a while, though it’s chaotic there now, my status can get us out." The Saintess of Cangyue hurriedly added.

Li Ji’an remained silent, merely calming his mind, and calculating the situation with clarity.

"Dare to play tricks will lead to the destruction of your Divine Soul!" Ultimately, he could only take a gamble.

As the Saintess of Cangyue said, Cangfeng True Monarch’s pursuit of Yuanbao True Monarch was the only chance. If he were to return, it would be even more dangerous for him.

The Saintess of Cangyue shivered, clenching her teeth, "I understand."

"Let’s go." Li Ji’an, with a thought, adhered the Nine Dragon Lock tightly to the body of the Saintess of Cangyue, then with a wave of his hand, reconstituted a Magic Robe for her, which concealed her appearance.

Of course, this was merely an illusion of Magical Power; anyone with Divine Sense surpassing his could easily see that the Saintess of Cangyue now had nothing on her except the tightly bound Nine Dragon Lock.

Afterward, he relaxed a bit of the constraint of the Nine Dragon Lock, allowing the Saintess of Cangyue to temporarily mobilize a small amount of Magical Power.
