Shi Li suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
His Ghost King body actually shattered in the next second, and even the ghost army around him instantly collapsed.
“Soul attack? No!”
He instantly recognized this was a soul attack.
As a Ghost King, Shi Li was actually able to ignore many kinds of attacks.
Only a few attacks were effective besides powerful lightning and the unstoppable Sword Qi.
And soul attacks were super effective against Shi Li. To begin with, he didn’t have a physical body, so he would suffer heavy damage when facing soul attacks without the body as a protective shell.
At that time, his soul may even shatter, and he wouldn’t even have the chance to reincarnate.
Ghosts could only gain physical bodies when they reached the Ghost Lord rank. Extreme Yin gave birth to Yang. Only by reassembling a physical body would a ghost have a certain level of protection against soul attacks.
“I can’t die! I can’t de!”
Shi Li’s strong obsession with changing the world and reviving his childhood sweetheart forced him to make a choice.
“Ghost Slave Seal!”
Shi Li’s soul directly dissipated and turned into a seal.
It shot toward Zhou Feng’s arm so fast that the latter didn’t manage to react in time.
“What?”
Zhou Feng was frightened because his hand seemed to be wrapped up with something.
It shouldn’t be like that!
He had the AI, Hexadirectional Calculation, and the passive Battle Instincts. Thus, he should have dodged it in an instant. Yet, why had it not happened this time?
Soon, he understood what was going on.
Zhou Feng felt as if he could control a ghost at will.
If he wanted to, he could even crush Shi Li attached to his arm in an instant.
“Don’t! My life is in your hands now. Spare me!
“I know many secrets about the Cold Wind mountain range! And all my treasures are yours, Master!”
Shi Li surrendered at the speed of light after sensing Zhou Feng’s killing intent.
Ghost Slave Seal!
This was a method to control ghosts and was often used in the ghost army.
As long as one was imprinted with the Ghost Slave Seal, one would have to work for the Ghost King for the rest of their life.
One couldn’t even commit suicide.
At the critical moment, Shi Li used the Reverse Ghost Slave Seal.
He forcefully became Zhou Feng’s ghost slave in order to survive.
Shi Li’s idea was actually very simple. Only by surviving could he have a chance to achieve his goal in his heart.
And once his soul dispersed, there would be nothing left.
For this reason, it wouldn’t be a big deal, even if he became someone else’s slave.
Anyway, after transforming into a Ghost King and cultivating the Soul-Devouring Ghost Scripture, Shi Li’s lifespan was as long as 1,000 years.
If he improved in the future, he could even live longer.
There was nothing he could not do!
Compared to other cultivators, the ghost cultivators had the advantage in terms of lifespan.
There were even some desperate old cultivators who chose to abandon their physical bodies and become ghost cultivators in order to survive.
“Ghost Slave Seal?”
This time, it was Zhou Feng’s turn to be a little dumbfounded.
He had never encountered such a situation before. What kind of situation was this?
Someone in this world actually took the initiative to become someone else’s slave!?
It was really strange!
Zhou Feng was very clear that Shi Li wasn’t lying.
As long as he willed it, Shi Li would instantly die an unnatural death.
Zhou Feng wasn’t the only dumbfounded party. Shi Li’s ghost army was also astonished.
Why did their leader suddenly surrender?
Moreover, he surrendered so quickly that Zhou Feng couldn’t react in time.
Then what should they do now?
Their original enemy had become their boss. What was going on now!?
That’s right! Although Shi Li used the Reverse Ghost Slave Seal, the ghost army was still under Shi Li’s control.
Zhou Feng probably wouldn’t have thought that after Shi Li entered the Cold Wind mountain range, he had been studying this Ghost Slave Seal for nearly 100 years.
This was because Shi Li was very clear that his luck was just a little good. No matter how much ghost cultivators bragged, it was just an unorthodox cultivation path.
It might be possible to become a king in a corner of the world, but changing the world was a bit of a dream.
Hence, in order to prevent himself from being destroyed one day, Shi Li developed a method to force the enemy to take him as a slave.
In the future, if he was in imminent danger… he would be able to use this method to save his own life forcefully.
It seemed that no one would be able to refuse a free slave. Moreover, this slave was 100% loyal and led thousands of ghost soldiers.
Even the so-called righteous cultivators would consider if it would be too much of a loss to kill him when he could provide such help.
“My Ghost King body is also an excellent material for refining artifacts! It’s also an excellent choice to sell it to others!”
Shi Li continued to show his value.
The purpose was to let Zhou Feng understand his value and not kill him without a second thought.
Zhou Feng was rendered speechless upon understanding what was happening,
‘What on Earth is going on!?’
Although he had been complaining in his heart, he was really tempted.
This seemed to be an excellent research material, and he was still a little interested in the so-called ghost cultivators.
It was a good opportunity to use the AI for analysis and research and obtain something out of it.
Also, this Shi Li seemed to be able to be refined into a dao soldier!
Refining a Ghost King with a spirit bean would eliminate the spirit-awakening step.
It could greatly shorten the process of refining a dao weapon.
Before long, he would enter the initial stage of the Bean Soldiers Ability.
“Good. Order your ghost army to enter this bottle!”
Thinking of this, Zhou Feng temporarily put out the thought of getting rid of Shi Li and ordered the latter to command the ghost army. Soon, the ghosts entered the Yin Absorption Bottle in his hand.
This spiritual tool was specially used to store ghosts, and it was also one of his spoils of war.
Seeing that Zhou Feng spared his life, Shi Li naturally did not dare to have any objections to Zhou Feng’s words.
He commanded the ghost army to enter the Yin Absorption Bottle.
After dealing with all of this, Zhou Feng finally had the time to turn around and look at Li Rong.
He saw that Li Rong’s face was pale as she looked at Zhou Feng with a complicated expression.
Li Rong had not died!
Does everyone still remember the Death Substitution Gu Zhou Feng had given to Li Rong?
That was a true life-saving trump card.
Zhou Feng could sense the Death Substitution Gu’s aura on Li Rong’s body, so he hadn’t hesitated to ‘kill’ her with the one using her as a shield.
Li Rong had already come back to life through the Death Substitution Gu, but her body was very weak.
Li Rong had not died, but the Li clansmen were all dead.
Just from the aftermath of the battle just now.
The crippled Li clansmen had all been affected by the earlier battle’s aftershocks.
How could Li Rong accept this? Besides the three great holy lands, Zhou Feng was the one who caused all this.
Therefore, Li Rong could only look at Zhou Feng with a complicated expression.
Zhou Feng’s expression was calm as he faced the perplexed Li Rong.
“The weak are prey to the strong. This is the basic rule of this world. I’m sorry!”
Zhou Feng did not say anything more. He only took out the Crystal Warm Jade that Li Rong had given him before and handed it to her.
