Chapter 292: Temporarily Subdued

o True Fire, and he could no longer maintain his previous resistance. The power of the seventh-level stupa pressed down on Di Kun's body, causing him to tremble. He kept transforming between the demon...“You, you.....” Xiao Sanniang, Ge Changting, and Hu Laoguai were already utterly shocked at this moment. Helplessly, their life and death were now in the hands of the young man before them. There was no room for rebuttal or resistance. Thinking that the three of them had been powerful Ghost cultivators for many years, they were defeated so inexplicably by a young human cultivator, their faces turned pale with shame.

"Do you want to live" Lu Xia Tian flashed a smile on his face and looked at the few people jokingly.

“Will you, will you let us go”

Feeling a slight loosening of the hand on his neck, Ge Changting finally managed to gasp for air, though his breaths were still labored. But hearing Lu Xiaoteng's words, he, Xiao Sanniang, and Hu Lao Gui all had their eyes light up. Who wouldn't want to live if they had a chance

"Of course, I don't know what the young master wishes. This servant is willing to obey your every command." Xiao Sanniang saw a glimmer of hope and quickly replied.

“Me too, I am willing to serve the young master as a horse and ox.” Old Monster Hu secretly thought that Xiao Sanniang was quick-witted. For fear that this young man's subordinates had already used someone else and would kill him if he didn’t use him, he felt annoyed at the same time and quickly expressed his stance.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

“Good. I hope you’ll remember your words later, or else you know the consequences.” Lu Xiaoteng threw Ge Changting out. The golden puppet also released Xiao Sanniang and Hu Laogui at the same time.

Three people fell to the ground, coughing for a while. While they were grateful to have picked up a life, their fear of Lu Xia Tian had reached its peak. Apart from a Golden Core cultivator, they couldn't think of anyone who could subdue all three of them instantly and remain unharmed themselves. But the young man in front of them was clearly not a Golden Core cultivator. Although they couldn't sense the other party's specific cultivation level, they vaguely felt that it was similar to theirs, perhaps a little higher, but definitely not a Golden Core cultivator. But the opponent's divine sense attack was simply beyond their reach, leaving them defenseless. And at the same time, subduing three people, how powerful was the other party's divine sense

"I wonder what the young master wants us three to do. We are willing to serve you with all our might." Ge Changting stood up from the ground first. He had been defeated by Lu Xia Tian several years ago, and this time he was defeated even more thoroughly. There was no trace of courage left in his heart to fight Lu Xia Tian, so he directly surrendered.

"Me too." Hu Lao Gui and Xiao San Niang after returning a breath, hurriedly also said.

“I need to find a corpse here to help a soul possess it. It just needs to be at the level of a Foundation Establishment cultivator. You guys should be familiar with this place, right Help me with this, and send me out of the tomb, and I'll pretend today never happened.”

Lu Xiaottian said that if the primordial spirit inside the Soul-Suppressing Orb didn't have any ill intentions, he wouldn't mind finding a stronger Yin corpse for it to help its strength recover faster. But now he just wanted to fulfill his promise, and as for what would happen to that primordial spirit in the future, it was none of his concern. The three ghost cultivators in front of him must have stained their hands with the blood of many people. Ordinarily, if these three attacked him, Lu Xiaottian wouldn't mind eliminating them. However, under the pressure of the Tomb God’s consciousness, he felt restrained and unfamiliar with the terrain. Compared to him, these three ghost cultivators, although weaker in combat power, could thrive in this environment. They were even more at ease than him. Besides, as ghost cultivators, they were naturally more familiar with Yin corpses than he was.Originally, Lu Xiaottian had some worries about how to find a suitable Yin corpse in this place. If he encountered a large number of Yin corpses, it would be extremely troublesome. Moreover, attacking too many times would definitely attract the attention of powerful beings within the tomb, which was something Lu Xiaottian didn't want to see.

Unbeknownst to him, just as he was about to doze off, someone brought him a pillow. Since three cultivators had come knocking, Lu Xia Tian naturally wouldn't mind using these three as pawns. He subdued them with lightning-fast methods earlier, precisely to make things easier for himself. Now, looking at the three of them, the effect seems quite good.

“This is easy, I guarantee I'll get things done for you.” Hearing that Lu Xia Tian’s request was so simple, the three of them agreed in unison.

"After things are done, you walk your sunny path, and I'll walk my lonely bridge. I won't hold a grudge against you later." Seeing the worried expressions on their faces, Lu Xia Tian added another sentence.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“Then I shall take my leave, sir. You are truly magnanimous.”

A few people wore expressions of gratitude, as to whether they were truly grateful, only they themselves knew. However, what a few people thought, Lu Xia Tian didn't really care. Their lives and deaths were controlled by his hands, Lu Xia Tian wasn't afraid that they would play any tricks. It was the soul within the Soul-Banishing Orb that Lu Xia Tian felt strangely uneasy about. The entrance and exit of this underground tomb seemed to be changing, and as for human cultivators who entered, their divine sense was suppressed, unable to see far or probe too far with their divine sense.

There's no way out. Logically speaking, the primordial spirit within the Soul-Suppressing Orb should be worried about him getting angry and refusing to cooperate, or perhaps he feels confident because he believes he has control over the situation and knows the way out. Or maybe he has another plan up his sleeve

If there are other arrangements made as a precaution, it would be the most troublesome. However, now he has three more bodyguards by his side. Trivial matters don't need him to take action at all, and they won't easily expose themselves and attract the attention of the powerful beings in the tomb. Lu Xia Tian couldn't help but sneer, both wanting to know about the secrets of the invasion of alien cultivators, and wanting to see what other tricks this guy could come up with. After helping him occupy a yin corpse, their deal would be over. By then, it wouldn't be difficult to threaten him into revealing his secrets.

Having made up his mind, Lu Xia Tian felt slightly lighter. Ge Changting, Hu Lao Gui, and Xiao San Niang took turns leading the way ahead. With three people who were relatively familiar with the area around the tomb helping out, Lu Xia Tian had nothing to do for a while. He simply followed the three of them as they searched for traces of the Yin Corpse.

At this time, Ge Changting used several skeletons whose strength was only equivalent to that of ghost soldiers to clear the way ahead and probe. As soon as there was any demon corpse attempting a sneak attack, Xiao Sanniang and Hu Laogui would immediately join forces to suppress it.

Before his eyes appeared a corpse wolf with long, sharp fangs. Because it ambushed the skeleton clearing the way in front, Ge Changting smiled and immediately summoned more skeletons to surround it. Before Xiao Sanniang and Hu Laogui could reinforce, he sacrificed Yin Sha Corpse Fire. Tens of swordsman skeletons and spearmen skeletons formed a square formation around the corpse wolf, then archer skeletons released bone arrows from a distance, wave after wave of arrow rain striking the corpse wolf. Although fierce, the corpse wolf occasionally scattered a few skeletons, but under the effect of Yin Sha Corpse Fire, these scattered skeletons quickly reorganized themselves. Six Great Clans in each of the ten states of east, south, west, and north, there are still many small clans distributed throughout. These clans are often related to or connected with the royal family...
