Chapter 672: Subduing
"Hahaha! Since you've recognized our identities, do you think you still have a way out?" The grotesque figure ford by Daoist Li extended his tongue, speaking with bitterness.
"Now I'll give you two options: either submit and beco a servant of the Demon Race, obey my commands, and serve , or the second option is to die right here."
"Daoist Li" coldly stared at Wang Hong with three eyes, adopting a stance as if ready to strike at any mont.
"I choose a third option, to slay you both here." With these words, he released sixteen Flying Swords around him, eight in each set, attacking the two Demon Race mbers.
Although his black blade was sharp, it couldn't be used to harm enemies from a distance, so he had to engage in close combat. However, these two had already experienced the power of the black blade and wouldn't give him a chance to approach.
Wood Fairy continued to employ her White Silk while emitting so special sounds. Although they no longer aroused desire in Wang Hong, they still had a distracting effect on his mind.
Daoist Li, on the other hand, controlled dozens of Puppets to continuously attack Wang Hong. Judging from the style of these Puppets, they must have been obtained after entering this secret realm.
At the sa ti, he occasionally released so black mist to harass Wang Hong. However, after being burned a few tis by Wang Hong's Golden Crow Fire, he stopped using it.
This black mist was originally his specialty technique, but now it was completely restrained by Wang Hong, making him sowhat apprehensive.
At this mont, Wang Hong effortlessly controlled sixteen Flying Swords, engaging in battle with both opponents simultaneously.
The sixteen Flying Swords coordinated with each other, both in offense and defense, resembling a well-organized Array Formation.
After fighting for a while, Wang Hong once again summoned sixteen crimson Flying Swords, splitting them into two groups to attack the two opponents.
Originally, because it was his first ti fighting the Demon Race, he wanted to understand their thods better. However, Daoist Li's black mist was neutralized by his Golden Crow Fire, greatly reducing his strength.
At the sa ti, Wood Fairy's techniques didn't have much impact on him anymore.
After fighting for so long, and seeing no other formidable tactics from the two opponents, he used a total of thirty-two Flying Swords, overwhelming them.
Daoist Li, distracted for a mont, was once again beheaded by Wang Hong, this ti without the ability to regenerate.
Seeing this, Wood Fairy attempted to escape but was ensnared by a large net descending from above.
As she struggled to break free, Wang Hong stood before her with his black blade, poised to strike her down at any mont.
Having witnessed the sharpness of this black blade before, she knew her body wouldn't withstand it.
"No need to struggle anymore. Just answer a few questions truthfully." It was his first encounter with the Demon Race, especially on the territory of the Human Clan in Fengwu Continent. Therefore, he wanted to gather so information from this Demon Race mber.
"As long as Young Master is satisfied, I will cooperate fully." Wood Fairy once again adopted a submissive posture, hoping to win Wang Hong's favor.
"Drop the act. Tell , what is your purpose for coming here this ti?"
He doubted it was for resources. The Demon Race wouldn't go through so much trouble just for resources.
"We were sent to gather so information and then transmit it back. We're just low-ranking soldiers within the Demon Race, please have rcy. Coming to this secret realm to search for treasures was our own decision, hoping to find so resources for cultivation."
Wood Fairy replied with a pitiful expression.
"Do you Demon Race mbers also need these cultivation materials?"
He knew that the Demon Race cultivated demonic energy, which was fundantally different from the spiritual energy cultivated by Immortal Cultivators. Demon Race mbers shouldn't be able to directly use spiritual objects.
"Although individual mbers of the Demon Race can't use spiritual energy resources, those of us who infiltrated here have practiced a special cultivation technique that allows us to absorb spiritual energy and cultivate either Spiritual Power or Demonic Energy similar to that of the Human Clan."
Wang Hong recalled that Wood Fairy had previously consud Spirit Wine to replenish Spiritual Power in the Fla Passage, and both of them had exhibited pure Spiritual Power.
Afterward, Wang Hong asked many more questions, and Wood Fairy answered them honestly.
"I've answered all your questions. Can you spare my life? I promise I'll never be your enemy again."
Wood Fairy pleaded with a sorrowful expression.
"Do you think I'll believe that?" Wang Hong smiled and countered.
"I'm willing to serve you obediently, to be your humble servant." Wood Fairy's survival instinct was strong, and she pleaded repeatedly.
Originally, Wang Hong intended to kill her outright to end it all. But upon so thought, he figured subduing a minion of the Demon Race might prove useful in the future. Besides, Wood Fairy's innate abilities were quite unique. With his powerful Divine Sense, he had almost been ensnared by her earlier abilities, only saved by the variation of the Qiu Long Tea that kept his mind clear.
This talent might prove effective against other enemies.
Coincidentally, he had just learned a Divine Sense restriction from a Jade Scroll left by a Soul Transformation Cultivator from the Wan Kui Sect. Now, he could try it out on her.
"In that case, I will grant your request. I will lay a restriction upon you."
Upon hearing this, Wood Fairy hesitated for only a mont before nodding in agreent.
She had already planned it out in her mind. Agreeing now wouldn't hurt, and when the opportunity arose, she would escape and seek assistance from senior mbers of the Demon Race to remove the restriction.
"Very well, relax your mind and don't resist."
This type of restriction required complete consent from the target and their absolute relaxation to successfully implent.
Once successfully laid, it would possess formidable power, making it impossible for the target to disobey his will.
Wang Hong began to set up the restriction on her body, using his Divine Sense to inscribe peculiar Runes onto her Nascent Soul.
Halfway through, Wang Hong stopped and prepared to execute Wood Fairy with his black blade, without wasting any more words.
"Master, please spare . I admit my mistakes."
While Wang Hong was setting up the restriction, Wood Fairy had harbored so hope and hadn't completely let go of her guard.
"Hmph! I'll give you one more chance, but there won't be another."
The subsequent operation went smoothly. Wang Hong inscribed a total of thirty-six Runes onto Wood Fairy's Nascent Soul.
These Runes ford a Large Formation, integrated into every corner of Wood Fairy's Nascent Soul.
Then, Wang Hong retracted the large net, releasing Wood Fairy.
Wood Fairy erged from the net, moving her limbs and channeling her demonic power, feeling no discomfort.
She started to doubt whether Wang Hong was deceiving her, wondering if he truly possessed the skill to impose restrictions.
Thinking so, she soared into the air, intending to flee. But just as she flew a hundred feet away, she suddenly plumted to the ground like a heavy stone, leaving a deep pit upon impact.
Wood Fairy didn't know what happened; she just lost control and fell from the sky.
As she struggled to rise from the ground, she realized she could maintain consciousness but had no control over her body.
Although she couldn't control her body, it moved nonetheless. Wood Fairy stiffly climbed out of the pit and began to walk back step by step.
At this mont, Wood Fairy's consciousness was fully awake. She watched in horror as her body moved uncontrollably, feeling a sense of fear and helplessness.
Seeing herself standing quietly in front of Wang Hong, she felt his gaze, blatantly assessing her.
Though skilled in seduction and manipulation, she had never been manipulated like this before, feeling a deep sense of sha.
After thoroughly inspecting her, Wang Hong shook his head in disappointnt. "You're still not skilled enough. You should practice more."
He then manipulated Wood Fairy's body to perform various actions, from simple walking to complex movents and poses.
After a few hours of manipulation, Wang Hong beca extrely proficient in controlling Wood Fairy's body, which no longer moved stiffly as before.
This was a unique thod of restriction exclusive to the Wan Kui Sect, utilizing Divine Sense to impose absolute control over the restricted individual.
When not activated, the restriction had no effect on the restricted individual's daily activities, cultivation, or combat. However, once activated, the restricted individual would be controlled like a puppet, completely subject to the user's will.
This thod was more effective than ordinary puppets or spirit beasts.
Finally regaining control over her body, Wood Fairy huddled in a corner, looking at Wang Hong cautiously.
Like a beaten wife, she was filled with anger, grievances, and fear.
"As long as you don't try to escape in the future, I will treat you well. I'm not a cruel person. Now, I'll ask you so questions again, and you must answer truthfully."
Then, Wang Hong repeated the questions he had asked earlier. Every ti Wood Fairy attempted to lie, she found herself unable to speak the falsehood.
In the end, she could only honestly answer all the questions.
Previously, she had answered three truths and one lie, with most of the unimportant details being true and only a few significant ones being false.
It turned out that their purpose for coming here was to claim this secret realm for the Demon Race, intending to develop it into a secret base within the Human Clan's territory.
When the Human Clan let down its guard, they would launch a fatal blow from the secret realm.
According to Wood Fairy's confession, similar plans were being executed on several other continents. So had succeeded, while others were still in preparation.
However, these actions by the Demon Race had only begun in recent years and were still in the early stages.
Previously, such ideas were considered too difficult to execute.
The main obstacle was the vast differences in appearance and cultivation techniques between the two races, making infiltration impossible.
It wasn't until an ancestor of the Demon Race created a peculiar cultivation technique that this problem was solved.
