Chapter 369 - 367: Suppression

The master-servant contract, as the name suggests, completely places the servant’s life and death in the hands of the master.

The master can decide whether they live or die, saying that it is even lower than the most despicable slave!

In the Cultivation Realm, if someone finds out their friends or family have signed such a contract with others, it becomes an absolute vendetta.

But looking at the silver-haired youth’s lofty expression, it seems signing the master-servant contract with Lou Yi is a great gift.

Although he is addressing Lou Yi, many in the Corpse-Driving Sect have already shown anger.

Especially Bi Yaoyao, her face flushed red with anger, gritting her silver teeth, wishing to throw a pile of talismans at this detestable guy.

Unexpectedly, Lou Yi’s expression doesn’t change much, and he responds, "Alright."

Upon saying this, not only were the Corpse-Driving Sect shocked, but the silver-haired youth was also taken aback, obviously not expecting Lou Yi to agree so easily.

Then Lou Yi continues, "Since you’re so eager to become my servant, I’ll reluctantly give you a chance, quickly bring the contract."

Hearing this, everyone’s faces reveal a strange expression.

Some people’s facial muscles are twitching, clearly trying hard to suppress their laughter, daring not to show too much impudence in front of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"Empty words, you’ll be crying soon enough." The silver-haired youth’s eyes turn cold, his Spiritual Power surging throughout his body, while his hands continually gesture at his waist.

Then.

A blue firebird, about a foot long, appears in the void before him.

The firebird’s details are more complete compared to spells cast by ordinary cultivators; even the scattered feathers and their textures are visible.

Though its size is small, the rolling heat waves emanating from it are quickly expelling.

In just a few breaths, the temperature in the entire underground space has significantly increased, with some people even starting to sweat.

"This Firebird technique feels hotter than the Earth Fire Pillar!" a disciple from the Corpse-Driving Sect exclaimed.

The Firebird technique is a relatively common Fire Element spell, with a low threshold and merely average power.

While the Earth Fire Pillar is widely recognized as one of, if not the strongest Fire Element spell at the Qi Cultivation Level.

"Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators’ control over magic is far beyond ours.

Even the simplest and most basic spells become miraculous in their hands." Xie Zhiyu solemnly analyzed, "Junior Brother Lou must exercise extreme caution, lest he falls into an abyss of ruin!"

In the worried gazes of the Corpse-Driving Sect comrades.

The firebird summoned by the silver-haired youth disappears in a ’swish,’ only to appear above Lou Yi the next moment!

Lou Yi squints his eyes.

At such a close distance, he profoundly senses the terrifying heat contained within the firebird.

Making all the hair on his body start to curl, his skin feels like it’s melting.

’Boom!’

Lou Yi activates his Swift Talent, his right leg stomping the ground fiercely, creating a deep pit as his body is propelled a hundred meters away under massive elastic potential energy conversion.

However, the firebird trails Lou Yi as if it were his shadow, maintaining its position above him regardless of how he changes position.

It seems as if Lou Yi’s every move is under the control of the silver-haired youth.

Seeing this, Lou Yi’s heart sinks.

Foundation Establishment Cultivators have Divine Sense, their perception abilities are undoubtedly much stronger than his, thus they can anticipate his every action.

Just like he could anticipate the moves of disciples from the True Blood Sect and Red Sun Sect before.

"Burn!"

With a low shout from the silver-haired youth, the firebird lands on Lou Yi with a ’snap’ and then explodes with a ’boom.’

Blue flames rise high, completely engulfing Lou Yi!

The large rocks at Lou Yi’s original standing position transform into flowing, fiery red magma, indicating the high temperature of the flames.

"Lou the blockhead!"

Even though knowing that Lou Yi won’t easily die, Bi Yaoyao’s heart still inevitably clenches.

And the other disciples of the Corpse-Driving Sect also show a solemn expression, unsure if Lou Yi can survive this calamity.

In the next moment.

A figure emerges from the flames, shining gloriously like gold, unharmed.

"Well done!" The Corpse-Driving Sect crowd cheers.

The silver-haired youth does not show any surprise, calmly saying, "It seems Fire Element spells are indeed useless against you; after all, this body’s Mana is too weak.

But make no mistake, old man is proficient in all Five Elements Magic."

"Golden Needle!"

In the next instant, numerous embroidery needle-sized golden lights appear in front of Lou Yi, possibly numbering in the hundreds or thousands.

Surrounding him heavily, no matter how he moves, he inevitably faces attacks!

"These golden lights transformed from Golden Iron Qi, each one’s destructive power far surpasses ordinary Flying Sword attacks!" Xie Zhiyu’s expression turns sullen.

Upon hearing his analysis, everyone’s mood becomes heavy.

’Whoosh whoosh whoosh!’

Golden lights shoot towards Lou Yi, covering the sky!

"Black Skin."

"Petrification."

"Golden Armor."

Lou Yi doesn’t dare to be careless, deploying all defensive techniques including external True Strength.

’Clang clang clang clang!’

Golden lights hitting him erupt into bright sparks at every impact.

Due to the dense concentration of sparks, they eventually morph into a large, ghastly white flame swallowing Lou Yi.

The sharp Golden Iron Qi and extreme friction-induced high temperature, superimposed challenges weigh upon Lou Yi!

"Get lost!"

Lou Yi shouts angrily, punching upwards with his fist wrapped in purple True Strength, dispersing a large area of golden light, while his figure swiftly charges towards the silver-haired youth.

Taking a defensive beating isn’t Lou Yi’s style.

Although the opponent’s realm is Foundation Establishment, their physique and Spiritual Power still belong to the Qi Cultivation Middle Stage; it’s not like he doesn’t stand a chance to win!

Seeing Lou Yi charging towards him, the silver-haired cultivator’s lips curl into a mocking smile.

"None of your actions escape my calculations."

Immediately following this, layers of yellow earth walls, each an inch thick, rise from the ground.

Each rises timely, perfectly blocking Lou Yi’s path.

Though Lou Yi can smash the earth walls with a single punch, they inevitably slow his speed and disrupt his rhythm.

Ensuring the silver-haired youth maintains a safe distance from him.

"Wind!"

Silver-haired youth proceeds to cast Wind Element spells.

This spell summons a howling blood-red Yin Wind, containing endless filth, poison, grievances...

Even smelling its scent from afar causes dizziness and nausea.

Others sense that if they were to touch it even slightly, they’d be reduced to mere bones instantly!

Sadly, the blood-red Yin Wind, despite enveloping Lou Yi, still proves ineffective.

He retains his dazzling golden state with unrivaled defensive capabilities, making the silver-haired youth’s expression darken.

He realizes that although he constantly suppresses Lou Yi, the latter remains unaffected like an indestructible turtle with thorns.

Many techniques have been displayed, looking superb, but the results... are nearly nonexistent.

"How much more Spiritual Power can you expend?" Lou Yi says coldly.

He never abandons approaching the silver-haired cultivator; despite minimal progress, the effort gradually depletes the opponent’s Spiritual Power.

What’s the point of a Foundation Establishment cultivator possessing them?

Ultimately, their inherent self is merely a Qi Cultivation Middle Stage cultivator with limited Spiritual Power!

Once Spiritual Power is exhausted, that will be their end.

"You’re right, so I’ve decided not to linger." The silver-haired cultivator nods and then a black light flies from his sleeve.

A small, exquisite black ruler appears above Lou Yi, gleaming eerily.

Then, he points sharply at Lou Yi, as the black light surges like flowing water, spreading onto Lou Yi’s body.

Lou Yi attempts to evade but fails completely.

Instantly, he feels as if weighed down by a ten-thousand-pound burden, his body’s movements slowing dramatically!
