Chapter 331: Chapter 331 Taiyi Ancestor’s Shock

Chen Fan took steps towards Taiyi Ancestor, "Old fool, kneel down and beg for mercy now, and I might spare your life!"

Taiyi Ancestor ignored the cold light from before, thinking it was just Chen Fan’s attack gone awry, and snorted coldly, "Boy, you’re really clueless about your impending death. Take my hammer!"

He brought down his hammer forcefully towards Chen Fan.

However, the earth-shattering strike that was expected did not occur.

Taiyi Ancestor’s hand froze mid-air, his face filled with confusion, "Where is the power I infused into the hammer? Why didn’t it manifest?"

At that moment, his divine hammer, forged from millennium black iron, suddenly split in two, falling to the ground with its broken surfaces smooth as mirrors.

Taiyi Ancestor’s complexion drastically changed, "My hammer! My hammer!"

The cold light returned to Chen Fan, circling slowly around his body.

It was then that Taiyi Ancestor clearly saw that Chen Fan was holding a small gourd in his hand.

And from that small gourd, a second cold light flew out.

The two cold lights circled Chen Fan and then abruptly flew towards Taiyi Ancestor.

Taiyi Ancestor’s scalp exploded, his hair stood on end, and a sense of imminent death surged in his heart.

The first cold light had passed by without him feeling anything, leading him to believe that Chen Fan had made a mistake, but who would have thought that this silent object would cut his hammer into two halves? This illustrated the terrifying power it possessed.

If Chen Fan had aimed at his neck just now, he would probably have been decapitated by now!

And what was now attacking him were two cold lights!

Under such an assault, he had no chance of survival!

"Too terrifying! This kid actually possesses such a frightening weapon. Where did this monster come from?"

With that thought flashing through his mind, Taiyi Ancestor, without a second word, thudded to his knees and shouted, "I concede! Young brother, spare my life!"

The two cold lights came to a sudden stop a few centimeters away from Taiyi Ancestor.

Although Taiyi Ancestor had lived for over a hundred years, the experience just now nearly made him wet his pants, with his entire clothing soaked in sweat.

Only then did he clearly see that the two cold lights were actually Flying Swords!

"Flying Swords! They are actually Flying Swords! Aren’t these the weapons used by real Immortals in legends? But the Path of Becoming an Immortal has long been extinct, how can he control such weapons of Immortals? Could he be..." A terrifying thought emerged in Taiyi Ancestor’s heart.

By then, Chen Fan had come up to Taiyi Ancestor, retracted the two Flying Swords into the Sword Nurturing Gourd, and with a flip of his hand, the Sword Nurturing Gourd was placed into the Heavenly Creation Pearl.

He looked down at Taiyi Ancestor and said indifferently, "If you want me to spare your life, fine, but you must agree to become my servant."

Even though this Taiyi Ancestor was unreasonably occupying his villa and attempting to deal with him with his superior strength, Chen Fan was deeply curious about the Divine Realm and thought he might get some useful information from this old man.

Plus, having a high-level Divine Realm expert as a servant sounded like a rather cool thing to do.

Taiyi Ancestor’s expression showed hesitation; he was obviously extremely unwilling to become someone else’s servant. But in a life-or-death situation, he had no choice. So, he gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I agree to be your servant."

I’ll just verbally agree for now, and take the first chance I get to slip away. His Flying Swords might be terrifying, but if I want to escape, he won’t be able to stop me. Once I get away, I’ll start my secluded cultivation, and after I achieve a breakthrough in strength, I’ll come back and avenge myself on this youngster.

Taiyi Ancestor fantasized about his plan to endure the humiliation and bide his time.

Chen Fan nodded in satisfaction when Taiyi Ancestor agreed, and then flicked his finger, sending a streak of light into his glabella.

With a puzzled look, Taiyi Ancestor asked, "What was that just now?"

Chen Fan said, "I have left a spiritual soul contract in your mind. From now on, I am your master. I can sense your loyalty to me through the spiritual soul contract, and should you harbor any thoughts of rebellion, I will instantly be alerted. At the same time, I can obliterate your soul through the contract."

Taiyi Ancestor’s eyes bulged. How could I possibly escape now?

"Hmm? I can feel your thoughts of rebellion. It seems you are not truly devoted to serving me. In that case, you might as well go meet Yama," Chen Fan scrutinized Taiyi Ancestor.

Beads of cold sweat poured down Taiyi Ancestor’s forehead; he quickly kowtowed twice on the ground, "I dare not, I dare not, my lord, spare my life. I was merely confused just now. I swear, from this moment on, I will never harbor any thoughts of rebellion!"

Chen Fan sensed the spiritual soul contract to confirm that Taiyi Ancestor was not lying, and then nodded, "Get up."

Rising to his feet, Taiyi Ancestor stared at Chen Fan in disbelief. The spiritual soul contract he had just mentioned was unheard of, sounding like something only those on the Path of Becoming an Immortal possessed.

That was also why he had decided to pledge his allegiance to Chen Fan.

If Chen Fan indeed mastered that legendary Path of Becoming an Immortal, even becoming his servant would be an immense opportunity for him.

Curious, he asked, "Master, your methods are wondrous and extraordinary and you possess such formidable strength without condensing a divine pill—I wonder, have you mastered that legendary Path of Becoming an Immortal?"

Chen Fan’s eyebrows raised; he had not expected Taiyi Ancestor to know of the Path of Becoming an Immortal. It appeared that cultivators had indeed existed on Earth in the past, but for some unknown reason, they had all vanished.

Considering that he had already established a spiritual soul contract with Taiyi Ancestor, he was not worried about the latter revealing the secret of his Cultivation Inheritance, so he nodded, "Indeed."

Excitement filled Taiyi Ancestor’s eyes, and he knelt down to kowtow twice more to Chen Fan, "Master, it is a blessing from my past several lifetimes to serve you. I promise that from now on, I will not hesitate to climb mountains of swords or descend into seas of flames for you. However, I am sure you do not wish to bear a burden either. I only hope that when you ponder the great Dao, you can enlighten me somewhat, and I will be completely content."

Chen Fan nodded.

That Taiyi Ancestor was not surprised by cultivators indicated he knew something. Chen Fan himself was curious about the divine pill condensed by the Divine Realm, and had many questions to ask Taiyi Ancestor.

However, Lu Jinyuan and Lu Siyu were still waiting at the bottom of the mountain. He was not in a hurry to ask, so he said, "Let’s go down the mountain first."

The two of them walked down the mountain together.

At the foot of the mountain.

Lu Jinyuan was watching the direction of the back mountain with a tense expression, worry creeping into his heart.

The commotion from the mountain had been truly frightening, and he wasn’t sure whether Chen Fan could manage Taiyi Ancestor.

With a cold smirk on his face, Lu Siyu said, "It seems that Chen Fan does indeed have some abilities, to make Taiyi Ancestor create such a big fuss to deal with him. But Taiyi Ancestor is like an Immortal—Chen Fan is no match for him. There’s no noise on the mountain now; I think Chen Fan must be dead by Taiyi Ancestor’s hand."

Lu Jinyuan glared at Lu Siyu, "Stop dreaming here, Lu Siyu. The strength of Mr. Chen is beyond your understanding. He would never lose to Taiyi Ancestor!"

Lu Siyu scoffed, clearly thinking that Lu Jinyuan was just comforting himself.

At that moment, a figure approached from afar.

Both men looked over and saw that it was Taiyi Ancestor coming.

Lu Siyu burst into laughter, full of pride, "What did I say? Chen Fan is no match for Taiyi Ancestor. Taiyi Ancestor has come down, which means that Chen Fan is dead!"

Just then, a voice came from behind Lu Siyu, "Aren’t I alive and well?"
