Chapter 28
Chapter 28: Impossible, Absolutely Impossible!
What do you mean I’m going to invade you?
It sounds heavily laced with malicious intent.
Forget it.
The girl in white ignored the slight discomfort in her heart and continued to shut down her celestial sense, waiting for Chen Ansheng’s attack.
Chen Ansheng activated the “Seed Imprint Technique”.
As for whether to choose the Puppet Mark, the Master-Slave Contract, or the Hatred Mark?
After thinking for a moment, Chen Ansheng chose the Puppet Mark!
The Master-Slave Contract required the other party to willingly agree to become his servant; merely agreeing verbally wouldn’t suffice. It had to come from a deep willingness within their soul for it to succeed.
How could the girl in white willingly agree to become a servant? Thus, he discarded that option.
As for the Hatred Mark, it was used to plant the seeds of hatred for chasing after others.
Chen Ansheng couldn’t think of anyone he wanted to hunt down, and even if he succeeded, it wouldn’t be useful, as he wouldn’t be able to control them.
Hence, Chen Ansheng decided to use the Puppet Mark.
This kind of mark was extremely difficult to plant; it required overwhelming the other party with mental power to succeed.
If successful, Chen Ansheng would not only stop fearing the Demoness but could also manipulate her to do anything.
Conversely, if he failed, he could just say he was demonstrating a secret technique, that it was her own request; she couldn’t just turn against him, right?
Hmm, it would be like that!
Chen Ansheng prepared to take a gamble.
In an instant, a thread of the Great Dao’s opportunity quietly infiltrated the celestial soul’s sea of consciousness of the girl in white.
“Hiss, hmm?”
In the next moment, the girl in white suddenly opened her eyes wide.
Pain, it felt like her head was about to explode!
Almost instinctively, the girl in white urged her mental power to counteract the invasive strange force.
Feeling the fierce resistance, Chen Ansheng also felt a headache, as if his brain had been mixed into a pulp.
“So this is the mental power of a Profound Immortal, terrifyingly strong!”
Chen Ansheng was horrified inside.
Immortal, True Immortal, Profound Immortal…
Chen Ansheng was just an ordinary Celestial Realm practitioner, significantly below her by two major realms.
Comparing Immortals to True Immortals was like comparing a Qi Refining practitioner from the lower realms to a Nascent Soul practitioner—such a vast gap.
And the difference between a True Immortal and a Profound Immortal was even greater.
If one Profound Immortal was likened to the Great Ascension phase, then a True Immortal was only as weak as a newcomer in the Qi Refining phase.
So one could imagine how immense the gap was between Chen Ansheng and the girl in white.
“Pu.”
After over ten breaths, Chen Ansheng felt a sharp pain in his chest and could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
The forcibly invaded mental power was interrupted, and he finally caught his breath.
As for the girl in white, she quietly swallowed something unknown, her expression calming down once more, just as usual.
“Hmph, so it was a mental attack. If we were of the same realm, it wouldn’t be surprising, but you are only at the third celestial realm yet were able to prick my mind for a breath of time; your technique’s power is indeed remarkable.”
As she spoke, the girl in white couldn’t calm her heart.
She was certain that she had suffered a severe mental attack, and there was something that left an indelible mark on her celestial soul.
“Failed.”
Chen Ansheng felt that he had established some sort of faint connection with the girl in white, but it was far from the level of controlling a puppet.
He didn’t know what was going on; in any case, not being able to control her equated to failure.
“Now you should believe I’m not lying, right?” Chen Ansheng said warily, staring at the girl.
“I mentioned before, even if I don’t kill you, you will still be killed by that group outside. What are you so happy about?” The girl in white pouted and then asked, “By the way, what mental technique did you just use?”
As long as she wasn’t immediately killed, Chen Ansheng felt a lot more at ease and replied, “It’s an unnamed little technique my master passed down to me; let’s just call it the Puppet Technique.”
The girl: “……”
The Puppet Technique is a little technique?
What kind of pretense is this? In the entire young generation of the demon path, there are less than three people who can truly master the Puppet Technique.
Moreover, it’s said that their Puppet Technique can only be used on practitioners of a lower realm than themselves. Yet this guy just almost broke through her mental power; what kind of unbelievable Puppet Technique is he practicing!
Thinking of this, the girl silently thanked her instincts—if she hadn’t desperately resisted just now, she might have almost become his puppet!
“Demoness, we will form a kill formation; if you do not come out to surrender, you shall be reduced to ashes!”
A shout came from outside.
“What to do?” Chen Ansheng checked the time; there was still a quarter of an hour until the interdimensional stone would be unsealed.
“Wait to die.” The girl replied indifferently.
“That can’t be!” Chen Ansheng said, a bit agitated. “You, a dignified Profound Immortal, can’t beat those little brats outside?”
“Are you blind? Can’t you see I’m heavily injured?” The girl glared at Chen Ansheng.
Chen Ansheng paused for a moment, muttering, “So your bleeding is because you’re severely injured? I thought you were having your period.”
Hearing Chen Ansheng say this, Li Xiuyuan, who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead, really wanted to jump up and hug Chen Ansheng, giving him a hard punch and saying, “Brother, great minds think alike.”
The girl in white had the impulse to strangle Chen Ansheng.
The atmosphere became awkward, and Chen Ansheng suddenly said, “What if I pass on to you a supreme demon technique? You can cultivate it right away; maybe you could then slap those guys outside to death?”
The girl in white was enraged, wanting to kill, “Then how about I pass you a Profound Immortal-level technique? You can try cultivating it immediately!”
Chen Ansheng stuck out his tongue, “Isn’t that how it’s written in stories, achieving sudden enlightenment and surviving against all odds?”
Boom!
The beast cart rolled and shook.
Fortunately, the girl issued a strand of celestial power to stabilize him; otherwise, he would have either died or broken a few bones.
“Oh no, oh no, they’ve attacked!”
Chen Ansheng panicked and shouted, “Brothers outside, please don’t attack! There are innocent people inside!”
A voice replied, “Kid, your deaths in exchange for the life of the Demoness will benefit the masses. Those who take such a self-sacrificing act will surely have a good rebirth in their next life, so rest in peace.”
“I’ll give it to your mother, you old scoundrel.”
Chen Ansheng couldn’t help but curse under his breath.
“Idiot.” The girl looked at the cowardly Chen Ansheng, “I really don’t know which demon cultivator high-up collected a wimp like you.”
Chen Ansheng glared at the girl, “Being afraid of death is a common human nature. If you aren’t afraid, then go rush out and fight them!”
The girl in white was about to give Chen Ansheng a slap but realized she seemed to be under some kind of demonic influence—no matter what, she couldn’t lift her hand.
Moreover, she suddenly felt a surge of impulse within her.
She longed to rush out immediately and engage in a bloody fight with the group of sacred land practitioners outside, even at the cost of her own life.
“What the hell is this? Why do I feel compelled to do whatever he tells me to do? Could it be that…”
The girl in white suddenly felt uneasy.
Could it be that she had already been controlled by this little brat, becoming his puppet?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
She is a dignified Profound Immortal expert; how could she be controlled by an insignificant ant?
