"No, no, no!"

"What is this? Get out of my head! Ah!"

As a spirit reader,

Luo Feng had an exceptionally strong will.

But that had become the source of his suffering.

Because his perception was far beyond that of ordinary people,

when the Capybara began using the Soul Seal secret technique,

Luo Feng's pain was many times worse than anyone else's!

This was the core secret art created by Master of Yunmo Star, Hu Yanbo—the Soul Seal!

Its core principle was to gather the power of one's own soul

and form an "Enslavement Soul Seal" containing an absolute will to control, then forcibly implant it into the target's soul core.

This made the target submit completely on a soul level, becoming an absolutely loyal servant.

At the same time, the target retained their own consciousness, intelligence, and even potential for cultivation!

"I'm saying, aren't you going a little too far?"

Perhaps Luo Feng's screams had drawn him in, but Babata seemed to be feeling a little too much compassion.

Or perhaps it was the inexplicable bond between the two of them.

But the Capybara wasn't going to stop for that.

As a transmigrator, he knew all too well what status Luo Feng held in the Swallowed Star universe.

If this kid was allowed to grow stronger,

I'd be the one who ended up as his pet.

"Babata, quit being softhearted!"

"Keep going! Let's see how strong this kid's soul really is!"

"Hum!"

As the Capybara pressed on,

"Please, no!"

Luo Feng's eyes flew open, and he let out an unbearably shrill scream!

He clearly "saw" a seal made up of countless intricate, profound, dark golden runes, radiating boundless majesty and power to bind.

It was barging into his sea of consciousness, heading straight for his soul core to brand itself there!

His soul trembled violently, resisting!

It was the ultimate fear of losing his freedom, an instinct shared by all living things!

His Spiritual Force surged wildly through his sea of consciousness like a flood out of control, trying to build a defensive barrier against the Soul Seal.

But before the Soul Seal, which contained the mysteries of Immortal Level laws, his Planetary Level Spiritual Force seemed utterly fragile!

"Get out! Get out of me!"

Luo Feng roared in his mind, veins bulging on his forehead as his whole body convulsed violently. Blood even began to seep from his eyes, nose, ears, and mouth!

The pain of having his soul forcibly invaded and his will forcibly twisted

was hundreds, even thousands of times worse than any physical torment!

Yao Rao and Venina couldn't sense the battle on the soul level as clearly as Luo Feng could.

But seeing his face twisted in agony and hearing those inhuman, piercing screams,

they felt a chill rise from the depths of their hearts and shoot straight to their heads!

This Capybara actually knew such a terrifying, wicked secret technique that acted directly on the soul?!

"Hang in there, Luo Feng! Hold on to your will!"

Yao Rao couldn't help shouting, even though she knew it might be futile.

Venina's face was deathly pale. She finally understood what "swearing allegiance" meant!

This was more terrifying than being killed! They were going to strip away their very selves at the root!

The Capybara was completely focused, carefully controlling the Soul Seal.

It was his first time using it, and he was afraid he might accidentally shatter Luo Feng's soul. That would be a terrible loss.

He could feel Luo Feng's soul resisting stubbornly, and couldn't help but admire him.

As expected of the protagonist of the original story. His will really is unbreakable.

"Give up resisting, Luo Feng.

Submit to me, and you'll gain even greater power and a far wider future!"

The Capybara's Spiritual Force rang in Luo Feng's ears like a demon's whisper, working in tandem with the Soul Seal's power.

It kept battering at Luo Feng's defenses.

"No... I... will never..."

Luo Feng's resistance grew weaker and weaker. The Soul Seal's light had already reached his soul core.

The dark golden runes began to spread into the depths of his soul like living things, taking root...

The intense pain receded like a tide, replaced by a strange calm and...

Awe and submission rising from the depths of his soul.

The struggle, pain, and hatred in Luo Feng's eyes melted away like snow, vanishing in an instant.

His gaze cleared, yet filled with absolute devotion.

He stopped struggling and slowly raised his head to look at the Capybara.

His gaze was gentle and fervent, like the most devout believer looking up at a god.

Still bound by the Magic Cloud Vine, he struggled to lower his head, managing it with difficulty but with the utmost respect. In a clear voice full of reverence, he said:

"Master."

That single word announced the completion of the Soul Enslavement!

Yao Rao and Venina watched, frozen with terror, as if they had fallen into an icy abyss!

The Capybara looked with satisfaction at Luo Feng, whose aura seemed even more refined than before.

He nodded at Luo Feng's fervent gaze.

Then he slowly turned his head and looked toward Yao Rao and Venina, whose faces were deathly pale.

A glint of ill intent flashed in his bright, black eyes.

"So, who's next? Who wants to give it a try?"

Perhaps worried the two beauties might misunderstand, he added,

"As you can see, resistance is futile. If you accept it calmly, it won't hurt as much!"

He pointed at Luo Feng, who was sprawled on the ground, gasping for breath and still calling out "Master" over and over.

The Capybara's meaning was obvious.

If these two girls thought their willpower was stronger than Luo Feng's,

they could give it a try.

After all, they had both seen how much pain Luo Feng had suffered just now.

And they were at higher levels than Luo Feng.

What would happen next?

Surely they could figure it out.

"I... I'll do it..."

At last, the long-legged auntie couldn't take it anymore.

Almost as if possessed, she volunteered.

After making the request, the long-legged auntie murmured to herself,

"Yao, I'm sorry. I... I couldn't avenge our child, and now even I'm probably..."

The long-legged auntie was acting as if she were going to her death.

I'd never kill you.

Never mind anything else, just those long legs

were enough for the Capybara to savor.

"Very well, Miss Venina. Please don't resist. Follow the Soul Seal and search your heart!"

Seeing the long-legged auntie volunteer,

the Capybara was overjoyed.

What was that saying again?

The ancients had summed it up:

A wife is not as good as a concubine!

A concubine is not as good as a secret lover!

And back in the ancient Eastern world, there had been a man named Cao Cao.

He'd especially liked other men's wives.

Venina was the sort of young-looking married woman who still had a girlish charm.

But perhaps that was her advantage.

An advantage that would improve her chances of surviving.

"Okay, I... I'll try not to resist!"

Maybe it was because the Magic Cloud Vine had wrapped tightly around her, or maybe she was already scared out of her wits.

At that moment, the long-legged auntie Venina was trembling all over.

If not for that little bit of so-called noble dignity,

the long-legged beauty probably would have wanted to skip the Soul Seal entirely, kneel down, and call him Master!

"Venina, you!"

Seeing how spineless the long-legged auntie was,

Yao Rao was speechless.

Why?

Why would a human War God surrender to a strange beast?

And grovel so abjectly?

Why was this happening?
