Bai Lung watched impassively as the body beneath his foot twitched and convulsed, a sickening crunch echoing through the room.
He leaned down, grabbing a fistful of the girlâs hair and yanking her head up.
âYou seriously thought you could deceive me, foolish woman? â His grip tightened with his eyes glowed with dark aura.
Tia trembled in fear,
Her eyes widened as she gazed up at Bai Lungâs menacing form.
His grip on her hair was relentless, sending jolts of pain through her skull, her pain was so great that it felt like Bai Lung had used some kind of method to boost the pain otherwise, even with sealed cultivation, she shouldnât feel pain with her hair being grabbed.
She was a dragon race with tough durability, endurance, and vitality.
Her body shook violently while her mind raced trying to come up with a way to appease this dangerous man.
She couldnât bear the thought of enduring more of his wrath.
His powers were simply off the chart, first that strange bamboo and now this strange shadow pin that wouldnât let her move even an inch.
The shadow pin stabbing her shadow and making her unable to move was the profound and superior technique that she couldnât grasp.
Bai Lungâs expression remained cold and unfeeling.
â Good. You will learn your place. I have no need for disobedient tools.â
He released his grip on her hair, letting her head fall to the floor with a thud.
Tia lay there, panting and shivering, watching him with serious eyes.
The next moment, Bai Lung unleashed a dark energy from his palm,
in an instant, multiple tentacles or binding shadow ropes emerged from her shadow, pulling her into her own shadow.
Her body was being swallowed by her own shadow, slow by slow.
Bai Lung doesnât know what is this, but strangely he knows how to use this shadow art and a couple of others as if they were imprinted in his consciousness.
He knows a few more shadow techniques⦠Strangely none of them are available in his sea of consciousness which should contain all of his memories.
If the memories were washed off, he shouldnât be able to use this art.
Multiple questions were raised in his head yet the answer was unknown.
â W-Wait⦠I submit!⦠Iâll do anything as you command, spare me, â her horrified eyes finally begged for mercy as she didnât wish to be completely devoured by her shadows.
âP-please⦠spare me,â Tia gasped with her trembling voice. âI⦠I will obey. Iâll do whatever you want.â
Bai Lungâs expression remained cold and undying looking at her with his menacing eyes.
â Oh! â Bai Lung raised his palm and the shadow ropes slowly pulling her into the shadows vanished.
Moving near her, he sat right in front of her and looked straight into her eyes.
â letâs see! â he uttered as he also didnât wish to kill her.
Yes, right now her cultivation is sealed by that pin however Bai Lung doesnât know how to cast it, as such, he doesnât wanna lose a powerful tool who will serve him.
Tia nodded frantically with her fear completely palpable. âYes, master. I understand, â
Bai Lung turned away from her, his attention shifting back to the enlightened lotus which had lost its light. It was no different than ordinary lotus now.
However, he had also obtained a profound vision.
Swoosh~
In an instant, a dazzling avatar of the lotus was formed In his palm,
it was a primordial vision he had received about a powerful lotus art.
The lots art is so strong it can even destroy the entire cosmos in its peak form. And to reach peak form itâs not that hard, all Bai Lung has to do is keep making progress on cultivation.
â¦
He had successfully obtained enlightenment, but there was still much to be done.
He took a deep breath, feeling the surge of energy from his enhanced cultivation, and clenched his fist, making the lotus disappear.
His mind was clearer, his senses sharper.
At the moment,
He was at the second stage of the Qi Saint realm for soul cultivation by absorbing the souls of those two powerhouses.
And, Great spiritual Grandmaster realm for mind cultivation realm by absorbing the soul and celestial enlightened lotus.
A single treasure alone helped him over 2000 years of cultivation.
Since he is a Great Spiritual Grandmaster, he can have a spiritual flame.
He can form a spiritual based on the path he found in his life journey.
There are some common spiritual flames, some rare spiritual flames, and some primordial flames that are unknown to anyone.
â¦
Sigh!
Shaking his head, he focused his thoughts on the sect tournament.
If he isnât wrong, the sect tournament should have already started, and he also has his name in it.
So, it means he has to hurry up.
He does not need to participate in it but then again, he doesnât wanna leave the protagonist alone and grow.
If he isnât wrong, that Li Fan has also registered his name which means, Li Fan will get a growing opportunity in this tournament.
Swoosh!
Bai Lung waved his hand and instantly his figure blurred.
A group of crowd was looking at a space where a separate scene was being played.
It was a sect tournament, and the scene of multiple sects was being played in the space, all thanks to powerful space art.
Currently, 47 sects have participated in the tournament phase âAâ but only 16 sects will be selected for phase B.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
â You heard? This time a bronze sect have participated in the tournament! â
â bronze sect? The audacity!!! How dare of them, they must be seeking death, â
â I know right, it seems they havenât seen Mt. Tai, even the silver sect doesnât dare participate in the empireâs tournament, but, these monkeys sure want to dance, â
â Hmph! I bet their sect will come as last in this tournament with zero points, â
â I couldnât agree more, but, after 20 minutes the tournament will begin and we will see them running across the map trying to save their stinky ass, â
â Well said brother, I am with you! â
â¦
â Oh! There is still some time left? It seems I can take part in the first phase then, â
