Nine Realms Sword Emperor

The old man trembled all over as he looked at Chu Fengmian.

"I am willing to submit."

That Ouyang Ancestor, in front of Chu Fengmian, was crushed to death as easily as Chu Fengmian might crush an ant.

The old man's strength was on par with Ouyang Ancestor, and he wanted to resist Chu Fengmian and escape, but had no chance at all, so he begged for mercy.

"Oh? You are willing to submit to me?"

Chu Fengmian was initially prepared to strike and kill the old man in front of him, but since the old man was willing to submit, Chu Fengmian spared his life.

Chu Fengmian had already captured Young Master Xia and broken ties with the Gui Wu Ancestor. Gui Wu Ancestor is one of the high-ranking members of the Hundred Absolute Star Territory Alliance, and they may act against Chu Fengmian in the future.

Only by knowing oneself and the enemy thoroughly can one be victorious in every battle. Chu Fengmian also wanted to learn about the true strength of the Hundred Absolute Star Territory Alliance. Keeping this old man, a patriarch of the alliance, can be useful, and he can be used as a pawn against the Gui Wu Ancestor.

"Want to submit? Then kneel and open your Dao Heart!"

Chu Fengmian looked coldly at the old man and spoke.

"Don't try any tricks; you only have this one chance to join me. If you dare resist, you will surely die!"

The killing intent in Chu Fengmian's tone was undisguised. If the old man sincerely submitted, Chu Fengmian would spare his life, but if the old man tried any tricks, death was certain.

"I don't dare, I don't dare, I am willing to submit."

The old man was already scared out of his wits by Chu Fengmian. Hearing Chu Fengmian's words, he spoke tremblingly and knelt at Chu Fengmian's feet, his expression pallid, eventually choosing to open his Dao Heart.

Once a restriction is placed in the Dao Heart, the old man's life is completely under Chu Fengmian's control. As long as Chu Fengmian wishes, he can activate the restriction, causing the old man to perish due to the Heart Demon.

The higher the realm of the martial artist, the heavier the Heart Demon. Therefore, a resilient Dao Heart is vitally important to suppress the Heart Demon; once the Dao Heart becomes chaotic, the Heart Demon surely acts, leading only to a demonic takeover and death.

But the old man realized he had no alternative option; if he didn't want to die today, submission was the only path.

The old man knelt before Chu Fengmian and opened his Dao Heart. Seeing this, Chu Fengmian gathered a burst of Spiritual Power in the palm of his hand. This Spiritual Power gradually formed into a restriction, a curse mark, and was implanted onto the old man's Dao Heart.

All Heavens Life and Death Seal!

Once the All Heavens Life and Death Seal was implanted, the old man couldn't even commit suicide, being entirely under Chu Fengmian's control.

However, to be safe, in addition to implanting the All Heavens Life and Death Seal, Chu Fengmian also quietly gathered a force of Devouring Heaven, transformed it into a Devouring Heaven Seed, and embedded it into the old man's Dao Heart.

This Devouring Heaven Seed is condensed from the purest Devouring Heaven power. Once Chu Fengmian activates it, he can drain all the old man's power completely, turning him into a dried corpse.

If this Devouring Heaven Seed is embedded directly into the Dao Heart, not even an Immortal General or Immortal Marquis can save him.

After finishing these tasks, Chu Fengmian relaxed, as the old man fully submitted and fell under Chu Fengmian's control.

The old man slowly stood up from the ground, his face pallid, looking nothing like a martial artist of the Heavenly Human Realm.

He knew that with a restriction placed on his Dao Heart, he would become a slave-like existence under Chu Fengmian, losing all dignity.

Even if Chu Fengmian ordered him to die now, he could only obediently do so.

"If you serve me well, I won't send you to your death; instead, I will enhance your strength, understand?"

Chu Fengmian perceived the old man's thoughts and spoke calmly.

"Yes, master."

The old man knelt and replied, his tone very respectful. He understood his position; if he served Chu Fengmian obediently, there was a glimmer of hope for survival. Defying Chu Fengmian meant seeking death.

He chose to submit to Chu Fengmian because he didn't want to die, so naturally, he wouldn't resist now.

Moreover, with the All Heavens Life and Death Seal engraved into the old man's Dao Heart, while it cannot affect him like it would a lower-realm martial artist or demon god, making them incapable of harboring thoughts of resisting Chu Fengmian.

But it could continuously influence the old man, instilling a natural fear of Chu Fengmian.

"Come with me first; this is no place to linger."

After subduing the old man, Chu Fengmian spoke to him directly. With a wave of his hand, a burst of Space Power erupted, transforming into a spatial tunnel. Chu Fengmian and the old man's figures stepped into it and vanished above the North Sea.

Almost simultaneously, in the distant Hundred Absolute Star Territory Alliance, in the deepest part of the palace void, an old man sat in an independent space. Suddenly, the old man's eyes snapped open, revealing an expression of disbelief and a burst of boundless killing intent.

This old man was Gui Wu Ancestor.

The Jade Talisman on Young Master Xia's body was refined using his blood essence, and he sensed the moment it shattered.

"Damn it! Who! Who would dare to target my son and even force him to use that Natal Jade Talisman!"

Gui Wu Ancestor's face was covered with vicious rage. An angry Immortal General, the boundless killing intent in the depths of the Hundred Absolute Star Territory Alliance's void, was felt clearly by countless Heavenly Human Realm ancestors.

"What's going on? Gui Wu? Why are you so angry?"

A figure suddenly stepped into the space, it was the Heavenly Saint Sword Emperor who had previously conversed with Gui Wu Ancestor. He sensed Gui Wu Ancestor's anger and hurried over, with a slightly surprised expression.

For existences at their level, ordinary matters are not worth getting angry over.

Yet now, Gui Wu Ancestor's anger was skyrocketing, with a feeling of wanting to destroy everything, which caused even the Heavenly Saint Sword Emperor to frown.

"The Natal Jade Talisman I left for Zhu'er has been broken by someone!"

Gui Wu Ancestor's tone was icy to the extreme at the Heavenly Saint Sword Emperor's arrival.

"The Natal Jade Talisman has been broken?"

The Heavenly Saint Sword Emperor, hearing Gui Wu Ancestor's words, looked extremely shocked.
