Devil Lord Six Desires Wants to Refine Luo Chuan into a Puppet

Luo Chuan glanced at Devil Lord Six Desires, whose appearance was passably handsome, and said indifferently, "The cultivator capable of turning This Seat into a puppet has yet to be born."

"Haha, little brother truly has an extraordinary temperament. No wonder you broke through to the Spirit Transformation stage at such a young age. This Lord admires you."

Devil Lord Six Desires licked his lips, gazing at Luo Chuan's peerless features, wishing he could turn him into his puppet right now to serve him for a lifetime.

However, Devil Lord Six Desires was no fool; he understood better than anyone that the Luo Chuan before him possessed formidable strength. If he wanted to make him his puppet, he would still need the right opportunity.

Duanmu Ji stroked his beard and said in a calm tone, "Six Desires, a word of advice: this little fellow knows the Death Curse Technique. He will be quite important to us when the time comes."

"Hehe, that goes without saying. This Lord has no intention of making a move against a Spirit Transformation stage cultivator yet. Besides... this brother's cultivation should have already reached the mid-stage of Spirit Transformation, right?"

Luo Chuan had currently hidden his cultivation at the mid-stage; naturally, these old fogies could not tell that he had already broken through to the late stage of Spirit Transformation.

Duanmu Ji stared solemnly at the location of the Star-Shattering Chaos and spoke faintly, "Only Meng the Hunchback is missing. Three hundred years ago, I heard he offended the Giant Devil Race, a level-four cultivation nation, and was hunted by their ten great War Devils. I wonder if he is dead."

"The Giant Devil Race... I heard that a powerhouse of the Yingbian Realm recently appeared within the Giant Devil Race, and they have already been promoted to a level-five cultivation nation."

Ancient Emperor stroked his beard and nodded, "Back then, the Giant Devil Race was a level-five cultivation nation. Later, their ancestor suddenly fell, and they dropped to a level-four cultivation nation. Now that a Yingbian Realm powerhouse has appeared again, advancing to a level-five cultivation nation is an easy matter."

"If this Meng the Hunchback offended the Giant Devil Race, I fear his chances of survival are slim."

"Even if that old hunchback dies, he will drag the entire Giant Devil Race down with him to the grave!"

Just as the Ancient Emperor's voice faded, a hoarse voice slowly drifted from the horizon. Amidst a grand and imposing aura, a massive, emerald-green toad, dozens of zhang in height, appeared in the distant sky.

When the toad landed in the distance, the ground let out a thunderous boom. Even from far away, everyone present could still feel the tremors of the earth.

Immediately after, the toad kicked its hind legs, its massive body leaping into the air like lightning. It vanished in the distance and reappeared not far from the group.

Suspended in mid-air, it descended like a small mountain, crashing down with a boom just ten zhang away from Duanmu Ji and the others.

With a deafening roar, the surrounding mist was violently whipped up and blown far away.

When the mist cleared, the giant toad was revealed. Its back was covered in countless high, bulging warts, which slowly contracted, revealing ripples of spiritual power within.

As the giant toad eyes rolled, they revealed a sinister, bloodthirsty glint.

Sitting atop this toad was a man dressed in green robes. He was short of stature, with a high, hunched back.

His eyes were triangular, his chin was short, and he had a sharp-mouthed, monkey-cheeked appearance. Ghostly light flickered in his eyes, and his face was covered in pus-filled swellings like the toad's warts. A foul, unbearable stench emanated from those pustules, making him look extremely hideous.

Meng the Hunchback touched the pustules on his face and chuckled with a hoarse, grating voice:

"Those old undying bastards of the Giant Devil Race hunted me for three hundred years, but I poisoned them all to death one by one. If it weren't for the fact that the millennium is approaching and this place is about to open again, I would have certainly slaughtered my way to the Giant Devil Race to avenge the hunt."

Devil Lord Six Desires stood with one hand behind his back and sneered, "Based on you? Now that the Giant Devil Race has a Yingbian Realm powerhouse, I fear you would be wiped out the moment you set foot there."

"Little brat Six Desires, you talk too much!"

Meng the Hunchback said, his face full of annoyance.

He was only speaking casually; after all, Spirit Transformation stage powerhouses were not idiots, and they naturally understood the terror of an old monster at the Yingbian Realm.

"Enough, stop arguing. According to our agreement, I will provide four supreme-grade spirit stones this time!"

Duanmu Ji took out four seven-colored supreme-grade spirit stones with a pained expression. After glancing at them, he pressed them firmly into the grooves of the formation.

Devil Lord Six Desires and the Ancient Emperor also took out three stones each. Only Meng the Hunchback, that old thing, could only produce one, which made it clear that this fellow was truly out of supreme-grade spirit stones.

As the supreme-grade spirit stones merged into the teleportation formation, several golden pillars of light shot straight into the clouds.

Boundless energy condensed from the formation, spreading outward like a raging sea. The surrounding boulders shattered into pieces the moment they touched this energy.

The formation beneath them also erupted with dazzling golden light at this moment, enveloping the two people within—Luo Chuan and his companion—and teleporting them to the true Ancient God Land.

As one of the few forbidden zones on the Vermilion Bird Planet, the danger level of the Ancient God Land was such that even a Ascendant Realm powerhouse would surely perish there.

One must know that the Ancient God Land was the place where the Ancient God Tusi fell.

Tusi was an eight-star Ancient God. When he sought the nine-star level, he adopted a retrograde cultivation method, which gave birth to the demonic thought Tuosen. In the end, Tusi fell, and his corpse landed on the Vermilion Bird Planet, forming the Ancient God Land.

It was filled with danger, containing various traps, unknown threats, and special restrictions, such as the Forbidden Mountain and the Nirvana Realm, as well as a large number of wandering souls.

"This is the first trial of the Ancient God Land. To enter the second trial, one must cross the floating stones here."

Duanmu Ji glanced at Luo Chuan beside him and said calmly, "There is no danger in this first trial. As long as your movements aren't too large, that beast hasn't awakened in a thousand years."

The beast he spoke of was the Desolate Beast, which possessed strength at the great circle of the late Spirit Transformation stage, lying beneath the seven-colored floating stones.

Ancient Emperor snorted in disdain, "Just a beast, nothing worth mentioning."

However, just as the Ancient Emperor finished speaking, the entire void suddenly trembled. A blood-red light flashed, shattering all the floating stones before them.

Within the red light, a massive blood-red Azure Dragon, over a hundred meters long, appeared. A surging, overwhelming energy instantly enveloped the area, causing everyone to feel an unprecedented pressure.

The Ancient Emperor's expression froze. Before he could react, he felt his blood boil and suddenly spat out a mouthful of scarlet blood.

"This, this is a Desolate Beast! What do we do!"

The Ancient Emperor looked at Duanmu Ji and the others with a face full of terror; clearly, he had not expected this to be a Desolate Beast with strength at the great circle of the late Spirit Transformation stage.

Duanmu Ji's face turned ashen. He summoned his magic treasure and shot toward the distance, shouting, "What else can we do? Run!"

Luo Chuan, holding his jade flute, glanced slightly at the Desolate Beast. Without exposing his cultivation prematurely, he followed Duanmu Ji and the others, flying straight toward the exit of the second trial.

Devil Lord Six Desires glanced at Luo Chuan, whose expression remained unchanged. After a moment of thought, his gaze lingered on the Ancient Emperor, and then his fingers moved slightly, instantly casting a seal.

"Fear!"
