Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 588 - 192: The First Demon Emperor’s Subordinate! (Part 2)

"How is this possible, the escape speed of this human race!"

It should be known that his Fire Escape is one of the invisible Escape Techniques, although he has just started learning it, it is not inferior to the average Middle-Stage Nascent Soul cultivator,

and even vaguely surpasses it,

but this recently advanced human can catch up so quickly, it’s really inconceivable!

"No, I cannot let him catch up!"

He personally saw the scene where the Black Island Demon Emperor was slain just now.

He judged that he was definitely not a match for Zhou Xun,

and he also didn’t have an ancestor at the Divinity Transformation Stage to cross space and save him,

once Zhou Xun caught up with him,

he would only be left with one outcome, and that would be death and the cessation of all paths, with even his flesh, divine soul, and inner core becoming sustenance for this human’s future cultivation.

Thus he forcibly extracted the demonic power from his demon pill, enhancing the power of his escape technique, visibly increasing his speed by two tenths,

in an instant, he surged away, pulling Zhou Xun several hundred feet behind, and this distance kept widening!

Watching the near-at-hand Demon Turtle accelerate suddenly, Zhou Xun couldn’t help but reveal a look of surprise,

"Didn’t expect this old turtle’s escape technique to be this skillful!"

At this moment, Zhou Xun couldn’t help but develop a sense of appreciation for talent, knowing that this was the first time he had seen a turtle-type demon beast with such speed!

"I want to see to what extent you can reach at your fastest speed!"

He also increased the mana output,

originally, he hadn’t utilized the amplification of the Celestial Profound Spirit Armor during his pursuit, as he wanted to see if he could catch up,

in an instant, Zhou Xun’s speed also increased by two tenths,

so the previously widened distance began to close!

The Red Noon Demon Emperor felt regret at this, creating resentment for the Black Island Demon Emperor who insisted on coming to Celestial Talisman Island to find Zhou Xun to redeem himself!

You could find anyone else, but you had to seek out this fiend, putting yourself at risk, and even dragging me into it!

Looking at Zhou Xun’s figure getting closer, the Red Noon Demon Emperor couldn’t help but fall into despair!

"Well then, today I, Red Noon, will sacrifice myself to witness the divine technique of your human race, at least it won’t be in vain for this life!"

Having made up his mind, the Red Noon Demon Emperor stopped fleeing, gave a low roar, turned around, faced the stopped Zhou Xun, and said:

"Greetings Daoist Wang, this old man has a proposal, how about you and I cease this fight?"

"It’s not easy for us to cultivate to the Fourth Realm, if we fight, there will inevitably be some damage, as for what happened earlier, it was really under pressure from the Third Prince, a last resort..."

Zhou Xun was stunned at this, then laughed!

"Interesting!"

Looking at the enormous Fourth Realm Demon Turtle in front of him, entirely crimson, with a mountain-like rise on its shell, floating in the water, it was almost the size of an island!

"It’s not impossible to cease, as long as you submit to me!" Zhou Xun said.

Compared to killing a Fourth Realm Demon Turtle, subduing it is more worthwhile.

"Impossible, I am a dignified Fourth Realm Demon Emperor, how can I lower myself to serve someone else, doing the deeds of a servant!" The Red Noon Demon Emperor shook his massive head.

"Is that so!"

Zhou Xun nodded, raised his left hand into a sword finger, and gently pointed at the demon turtle in front of him!

The Profound Thunder Sword immediately floated up, with a "swoosh", transformed into a blue-purple spiritual light, and struck the giant turtle!

"Boom!"

The Thunder Sword directly struck the back of the giant turtle, the blue-purple thunder light exploded, slicing off a portion of the high-risen shell!

"Its defensive power is indeed astounding, truly an excellent material for refining defensive treasures!" Zhou Xun’s eyes lit up,

his fingers waved again,

commanding the Profound Thunder Sword to strike again!

"Stop... stop!"

The Red Noon Demon Emperor was terribly frightened, hurriedly shouting.

He didn’t expect Zhou Xun to strike so fiercely without a word!

’At least try to persuade me again!’

’I am at least a Fourth Realm Demon Emperor, should I not maintain some dignity in my words!’

But now, he couldn’t care about that anymore!

Upon hearing the turtle plead, Zhou Xun stopped, and the Profound Thunder Sword immediately halted, hovering a few feet away from the demon turtle,

"Could it be that Turtle Daoist agrees to submit?" Zhou Xun asked with a smile.

"Submit, submit!"

The Red Noon Demon Emperor nodded rapidly, afraid it would say nothing more, and endure another strike from Zhou Xun.

Though its turtle shell was strong, it couldn’t withstand a few hits from Zhou Xun.

"It would have been better if you had said so earlier!" Zhou Xun couldn’t help muttering to himself, then said:

"Very well, reveal your human form,"

"Yes!"

A crimson brilliance burst forth, enveloping the giant tortoise, and moments later the red light vanished, leaving no trace of the massive red tortoise.

A round-faced middle-aged man stood in its place, clad in a crimson magic robe, his back prominently arched by the giant tortoise shell hanging there, his pea-like eyes staring at Zhou Xun, somewhat apprehensive!

Looking at the man before him, Zhou Xun slightly nodded,

As expected of a turtle-type demon beast, its defense is astonishing.

Even my Profound Thunder Sword, augmented with eighty-one sword lights, couldn’t penetrate his turtle shell,

Its defensive capabilities are probably close to a top-grade defensive treasure!

"Greetings... my lord, from henceforth... henceforth I shall act upon your command!"

Red Noon Demon Emperor bowed his head and clasped his hands, exuding the utmost respect!

"Is that all?" Zhou Xun furrowed his brows and asked coldly.

"Is there... anything else?" The middle-aged man feigned confusion!

"Since you are submitting to me, hand over a part of your essence soul," Zhou Xun commanded coldly.

"Impossible, if I hand over my essence soul, wouldn’t my life be at the mercy of your whim!" Red Noon Demon Emperor exclaimed in shock and rage.

"Is that so!" Zhou Xun sneered,

With a wave of his finger, the Profound Thunder Sword hovered up again, aimed directly at Red Noon Demon Emperor,

Transformed into a blue-purple spirit light, it shot straight at him!

Red Noon Demon Emperor was shocked and turned pale,

A flash of red light, and the shell on his back instantly blocked in front of him, colliding with the Profound Thunder Sword!

"Boom!"

Violent thunder light splattered, arcs of thunder enveloped the demon emperor,

Causing him to utter cries of agony!

"I... I submit, I am willing to hand over my essence soul, please spare my life, spare my life!"

"This is your final chance!" Zhou Xun snorted coldly, retracting his spell, the thunder sword flew back in a figure-eight.

Then he patted the storage bag at his waist, producing an inch-long small banner,

"Infuse a part of your essence soul into this banner!"

The middle-aged man heard this, forced a smile and made a gesture, pointing at himself,

His face showed a hint of pain,

Following that, a miniature tortoise appeared in front of him, slowly merging into the small banner.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Xun nodded with satisfaction and said,

"If you dare defy my orders, not only will you die, but your true spirit will not enter reincarnation!"

With that, Zhou Xun formed a spell and pointed at the banner face,

"Stop sleeping, get to work!"

"Roar roar!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an excited roar emanated from within the banner face,

Then a cyan light flew out, landing on the ground, transforming into a monkey over a yard tall,

It was indeed the Soul-Devouring Beast, Cyan Ape!

At their level, the sea and land made no difference!

At this moment, the Cyan Ape’s fur glistened, emitting faint golden light, compared to before, it had significantly improved.

As soon as the Cyan Ape appeared, it displayed an extremely excited expression.

It had been a while since Zhou Xun last released it, and it grew impatient within the banner.

Upon appearing, the middle-aged man was momentarily stunned,

The sight of Cyan Ape made him shudder with fear from the depths of his divine soul!

"Is that... a Soul-Devouring Beast?"

"Indeed, it is a Soul-Devouring Beast!" Zhou Xun nodded,

This Turtle Demon is cautious and cunning, and being a Tier Four Transformation, not to be underestimated; Zhou Xun naturally would leave him no room.

"I assume you know the power of this beast!"

"If you dare defy my orders, I will have Xiaoqing devour your essence soul, and once he absorbs it, you will have no chance of reincarnation!" Zhou Xun coldly stated.

"How dare I disobey, this life shall be loyal to my lord!" the middle-aged man quivered in response.

He never imagined that Zhou Xun possessed even an ancient mythical beast like the Soul-Devouring Beast!

He realized he couldn’t escape this fate!

After subduing the Demon Turtle, Zhou Xun wasted no time, commanding it to revert to its original form, then leapt onto it, sitting cross-legged,

And sped toward Celestial Talisman Island.

Zhou Xun then retrieved the Black Island Demon Emperor’s storage bag from earlier, eagerly opening it to see what treasures he had acquired!
