Enslavement

Inside the island, all kinds of strange vegetation grew in abundance—massive ancient trees and vines. None of them were particularly aggressive; the aggressive ones were mostly clustered near the roots of the Floating Sand Tree.

"We'll wait here for now and let them come find us." Luo Feng surveyed the surroundings and casually cleared out a large open space. At the same time, he manipulated the nearby rocks and soil, creating a manor with the air of Huaxia. "From here on, this will mainly be my training. You don't need to intervene against anyone below High-tier Second Source. Only step in if I can't handle them."

"Yes, Master," Morosa and Tie Nanhe answered.

Luo Feng nodded, then looked at the manor before him with considerable satisfaction.

Over the next stretch of time, Tie Nanhe stood guard outside while Luo Feng began cultivating on Floating Sand Island.

However, the peaceful days did not last. Just as Luo Feng had predicted, only a few days after they settled down, two Saint Realm experts came looking to make trouble for him.

Both were Early-tier Fourth Source.

The two aliens appeared to belong to the same race. Their bodies were somewhat lean and humanoid, covered from head to face in dark golden scales. The scales were strange yet beautiful. They belonged to the same race as an Eternal True God Luo Feng had encountered in the Eternal True God War Zone of Azure City—the Three-Handed Race.

Luo Feng frowned slightly as he looked at the two tall but lean Three-Handed Race Saint Realm experts.

From Morosa, he had learned that both were Initial-tier Fourth-Origin Saint Realm experts, on the same level as Mad Demon from back then. They were not suitable opponents for Luo Feng's current training, because this would simply be a one-sided beating.

"One Initial-tier Fourth-Origin Saint Realm, one Mid-tier Third-Origin Saint Realm, and one Eternal True God?" The two Three-Handed Race Saint Realm experts grinned.

"Kadir, leave that Fourth Source to me. You deal with the other two. End this quickly!" The speaker was Kakelong, whose strength was slightly greater than Kadir's.

"Don't worry. Just one Mid-tier Third Source and one Eternal True God. I'll take them down within ten moves." Kakelong licked his lips, a trace of disdain in his eyes.

"Attack!" Kadir turned into a streak of light and charged directly at Morosa.

Kakelong and Kadir's Chaos Domains instantly suppressed the surrounding area.

Morosa released his World Domain. Its power was no weaker than the Chaos Domain of any Early-tier Fourth Source expert, but the overlapping Chaos Domains of Kakelong and Kadir still suppressed the World Domain.

Luo Feng also activated the Chaos Sea, but it was far too weak compared to an Early-tier Fourth Source Chaos Domain and had no practical effect. Luo Feng tried to use the Dragon Tower Realm, but under the suppression of the powerful Chaos Domains, it instantly collapsed as well. These two Three-Handed Race Saint Realm experts were much stronger than the Mad Demon he had fought before.

As a World Beast Warrior, Tie Nanhe could not possess a Chaos Domain. His strength lay in his body and the Destruction Origin.

In the clash of domains, Luo Feng's side instantly fell into a disadvantage.

"Tie Nanhe, hold him off!" Luo Feng ordered. He was not worried about Morosa at all. Even if Morosa could not unleash the full power of a World Beast King, he was definitely stronger than an Initial-tier Fourth-Origin Saint Realm expert. Dealing with one Early-tier Fourth Source opponent would not be a problem.

"Rest assured, Master." Tie Nanhe's voice sounded in Luo Feng's mind.

Boom!

Tie Nanhe turned directly into a streak of light and fearlessly charged at Kadir. Facing Kadir's soft, slender blade, he showed no intention of dodging.

"Playing close combat with me?" Kakelong gave a sinister smile. The Three-Handed Race were naturally skilled in defense. His scales alone were comparable to a Saint-level supreme armor treasure. What he feared least was close combat.

Tie Nanhe remained expressionless, allowing Kadir's blade to slash across his body. The instant he closed in on Kadir, his entire body suddenly transformed into streams of black water that wrapped around Kadir's body, intending to bind him completely.

"What?" Kakelong's expression changed drastically. He found that his blade could not harm the black-armored burly man before him in the slightest. Meanwhile, the black-armored burly man he had looked down upon had bound himself to him with his entire body. This utterly reckless method completely restricted his movements, drastically reducing his agility. His speed of movement even became slower than that of a First-Origin Saint Realm expert.

Tie Nanhe held him bound like that. No matter how Kadir struggled, he could not break free.

His blade strikes could not even wound Tie Nanhe. How could he possibly escape?

"Since I can't break free, I'll exhaust your divine body. You're only Third Source—what makes you think you can fight a Fourth Source?" Kakelong's expression twisted slightly. Surging divine power erupted from his body. Through a burning secret technique, it enveloped Tie Nanhe, seeking to erode his divine power.

Tie Nanhe's primary divine power was granted by the Destruction Origin and contained the power of destruction, which was completely incompatible with other divine powers. Thus, the two forces happened to erode each other. This mutual incompatibility of divine power was indeed most effective against a World Beast Warrior. Once Tie Nanhe's origin power was exhausted, he would die.

"Master, his divine power is consuming my origin. The loss of origin will affect my strength. Once it is exhausted, I will die!" Tie Nanhe's voice sounded in Luo Feng's mind.

"I'll kill him." Luo Feng nodded.

He also knew the weakness of World Beast Warriors. Although they were difficult to kill through raw strength, mutual divine-power consumption was their flaw. His Destruction Origin could not be replenished and restored through the outside world like that of a World Beast King. Once depleted, he would die, unless he returned to the King's body to replenish and recover.

"Die!" Luo Feng stared at Kadir.

Suddenly, Kadir felt heaven and earth change color. Within his field of vision, only Luo Feng's eyes remained, staring at him. Those eyes overlapped into double images and transformed into an incomparably massive planet. As it spun rapidly, it radiated a hazy mist, and boundless power spread out from within it.

In an instant, an extremely sharp void will transformed into an arrow and shot out from the planet, piercing directly into Kadir's will.

Boom!

Kakelong felt a thunderous roar erupt in his mind, instantly drowning his will.

"This... no!" Kakelong had barely cried out and struggled once before the world spun around him and he fell unconscious.

How heaven-defying was the Lie Yuan Technique? With wills of the same level, anyone without a soul treasure for protection would fall unconscious. Kakelong was merely an Early-tier Fourth Source Saint Realm expert, and his will had not even reached the peak Saint Realm level. Facing the Lie Yuan Technique backed by a top-tier Saint Realm will, he naturally could not even remain awake.

"Collect!"

The Star Tower appeared and directly drew Kadir into its sealing space.

"No, Kakelong!" Kadir roared furiously. Although Kadir, who was fighting Morosa, had been completely suppressed, he still noticed this scene. That human had made his companion fall unconscious with a single glance and then taken him into a sealing treasure. His eyes instantly reddened.

"Damn it!" Kadir went mad as well. Having lost Kakelong, his Chaos Domain was completely suppressed by the World Domain. Knowing he was no match, the thought of fleeing arose in his heart.

He had already used his innate secret technique. The third hand on his back moved incomparably fast, and his blade techniques became even more powerful and exquisite. Yet he still found himself unable to defeat Morosa. Even if he wanted to flee, he could not shake him off. He simply could not escape.

Completely suppressed—how could he flee?!

"What should I do? Submit or self-destruct?" Two thoughts flashed through Kakelong's mind.

Self-destruct? He did not want to die. Submit? He had no confidence that they would spare him.

"My lord, I am willing to submit. Could you spare my life?" Kadir ultimately chose submission. He looked toward Luo Feng, and his humble voice sounded in Luo Feng's mind. He could tell that among the three, Luo Feng, who appeared the weakest, was actually their leader.

"Submit?" Luo Feng's heart stirred. He truly was short on a few enforcers now.

Moreover, Luo Feng had considered that when the Floating Sand Fruit ripened, he could only remain on one island and could at most seize one Floating Sand Fruit. If he had a group of powerful servants spread across several places, perhaps he could seize a few more. The Floating Sand Fruit was of great use to him, so naturally, the more the better.

"You may submit." Luo Feng grinned and had Morosa stop attacking.

Only then did Kakelong finally let out a breath of relief.

"My lord!" Kadir stepped forward and spoke respectfully.

Luo Feng nodded. "Do not resist. Come in first."

As he spoke, the Star Tower directly took Kakelong inside as well.

Inside the Star Tower, Luo Feng, Morosa, Tie Nanhe, and Kadir appeared. Kakelong was still unconscious before them, already completely sealed by the Star Tower's sealing power. Even if he woke up, he would be unable to struggle.

"Kakelong!" Kadir looked at Kakelong. Seeing that he was still alive, he could not help but sigh in relief.

"To ensure your loyalty, I must plant a Soul Seal within your soul. Since you have already agreed to submit, do not resist in any way." Luo Feng looked at Kakelong. The trace of struggle and hesitation in Kakelong's eyes was obvious, but in the end, he still chose to compromise.

"Alright." Kadir nodded respectfully.

Luo Feng grinned.

Soul power emerged in his eyes and rapidly intertwined, forming a triangular-tower-shaped Soul Seal. Within the triangular tower, the character "slave" radiated a strange aura.

"What a profound enslavement technique." Kadir's mind shook as he watched. A secret technique cast by an Eternal True God seemed incomparably complex even to him. He thought that perhaps being controlled was not such a bad thing, so he allowed the Soul Seal to enter his body and then seep into the depths of his soul.

In an instant, the way he looked at Luo Feng became incomparably respectful and reverent.

"Master!" Kadir's eyes were filled with reverence.

"Kadir." Luo Feng nodded in satisfaction. Another great general had joined his ranks, and this was only the first step. When Luo Feng looked at Kakelong beside them again, he once more used the enslavement technique. The condensed Soul Seal easily entered Kakelong's soul.

"Wake up." With a thought from Luo Feng, a trace of strange soul power trembled slightly. Kakelong's eyelids twitched faintly before he completely regained consciousness.

"Master!" When Kadir looked at Luo Feng, his eyes were likewise filled with fervor.

I'm attending a friend's wedding tomorrow and the day after, so I probably won't be able to update, or there may only be one update.
