#855 - Ancient Sword Demon Ancestor
Zoro was struck as if by lightning, his entire body stiff and unyielding, unable to even twitch a finger.
He deeply felt the suffocating terror of Li Chengfeng's strength, and the awe that surged in his heart was like a continuous, torrential river.
Concealed within his body was a restriction personally planted by a Tribulation Transcending old monster, a being of unimaginable horror!
This restriction was like a towering mountain, pressing down on him until he could barely breathe, and he didn't even dare to entertain the thought of resistance.
However, in that fleeting moment, Li Chengfeng effortlessly suppressed this restriction as if he were taking a leisurely stroll.
His movements were calm and unhurried, as if he were doing something insignificant.
The divine sense nurtured within the old monster's body struggled frantically in Li Chengfeng's palm, like a butterfly trapped in a spider's web, letting out desperate and unwilling roars.
The powerful fluctuations of energy raged like a storm, as if trying to tear the entire space apart.
Zoro was so frightened by this sudden change that he prostrated himself on the ground, trembling uncontrollably, not even daring to take a deep breath.
His divine sense was like a startled rabbit, retreating with a whoosh and hiding deep within his soul, no longer daring to have the slightest thought of opposing it.
That divine sense was too powerful; merely the aura it released was enough to make existences like them, as insignificant as ants, feel fear and be unable to resist.
However, Li Chengfeng stood there unscathed, as if nothing had happened.
He held that remnant thought in his hand, a disdainful smile curling at the corner of his lips, as if mocking the old monster's incompetence.
The remnant thought gradually condensed in Li Chengfeng's hand, eventually transforming into the figure of an old man.
This old man had a single horn on his head, carried a huge ancient sword on his back, and exuded endless pressure, none other than the Demonic Realm's Tribulation Transcending old monster—Ancient Sword Demon Ancestor!
Ancient Sword Demon Ancestor's eyes widened in anger, his gaze toward Li Chengfeng filled with rage and unwillingness.
His voice echoed like thunder throughout the entire space: "Bold human! How dare you provoke my Tribulation Transcending Ancestor! I am the Ancient Sword Demon Ancestor of the fourteenth clan of the Demonic Realm! Do you know what kind of heinous crime you have committed?"
Li Chengfeng nodded lightly, his expression as indifferent as if he were listening to an irrelevant joke.
He smiled slightly and said, "I'll remember it.
When I'm interested, I'll go to the Demonic Realm to find you, and we'll talk slowly."
As he spoke, a ball of "raging flames" ignited in his hand.
These flames were exceptionally domineering, as if they could burn everything, even distorting the space around them.
With a loud bang, that wisp of the old monster's divine sense was directly burned to ashes by the flames.
Seeing this, Zoro was extremely excited.
Because the old monster's restriction in his body had finally been completely removed!
For so long, he had been bound by this restriction, forced to work for the old monster.
But now, he had finally broken free from this bondage and regained his freedom!
He seemed to see his bright future, his heart filled with hope and anticipation.
However, just as he was secretly rejoicing, a cloud of gloom quietly enveloped his heart once more.
Because Li Chengfeng had also planted a restriction in his body.
Although this restriction was not as terrifying as the old monster's, it was still extremely powerful.
If he betrayed Li Chengfeng, he would also face the miserable fate of death and dissipation.
It was just that his master had changed from the old monster to Li Chengfeng.
After eliminating Zoro's hidden danger, Li Chengfeng did not relax in the slightest.
His hands formed seals rapidly, like weaving an invisible net, and then countless complex and profound restrictions surged out like a raging tide.
They carried an irresistible pressure, deeply imprinting themselves in the depths of Zoro's soul.
These restrictions were like invisible shackles, firmly locking Zoro's heart of resistance, making him unable to move and daring not to have the slightest delusion.
At this moment, Zoro deeply felt how strange and unpredictable Li Chengfeng's methods were.
These restrictions seemed to contain the principles of heaven and earth, interlocked and exquisitely crafted.
They contained both the mysterious layout of formations and the strict barriers of restrictions; both the profound vastness of soul power and the ruthless and merciless nature of killing.
These many Daoist rhymes intertwined together to form an indescribable terrifying power, making Zoro feel terrified.
If he was careless, he would probably be crushed by this force, leaving not a trace behind.
Thinking of this, Zoro felt his scalp tingle, and an unprecedented sense of fear surged in his heart.
Compared to those Tribulation Transcending old monsters, the restrictions imposed by Li Chengfeng were undoubtedly more difficult to break.
These restrictions seemed to have merged with his soul, becoming an inseparable part of his life.
Faced with such a desperate situation, Zoro had no choice but to submit.
He gritted his teeth, enduring the humiliation and unwillingness in his heart, and said in a low voice: "Master, now that I have become your subordinate, I am willing to serve you with the loyalty of a dog or horse.
No matter what orders you have, I will do my best, even to the point of death, and dare not delay in the slightest."
Hearing this, Li Chengfeng waved his hand lightly and said indifferently, "There's no need to be so polite.
You can stand up and speak."
His voice was calm and profound, as if it contained a reassuring power.
Hearing this, Zoro was relieved as if he had been granted amnesty, and quickly stood up, bowing and saying: "Thank you, Master, for your generosity."
His voice contained a trace of trembling, obviously not fully recovered from the fear just now.
The Divine Sense Old Ancestor, seeing this scene, couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.
He widened his eyes, pointed at Zoro, and scolded: "Zoro, you shameless scoundrel!
Just now you swore that you would cooperate with me to deal with Li Chengfeng, this dog thief, and in the blink of an eye, you willingly became his slave.
You bastard, you're just a piece of trash!
To save your life, you don't even want your dignity, you're really worse than a pig or a dog!"
Zoro glanced sideways at the Divine Sense Old Ancestor, a disdainful smile curling at the corner of his mouth, and said with a sneer: "Old thing, although you said just now that you wanted to deal with my master, how could I not see through your little plan.
You just wanted to use me to be the scapegoat, attracting my master's attention so that you would have a chance to escape.
Hmph, this clumsy trick can only fool those ignorant people.
Now that I have already joined my master, I will naturally be loyal to my master, how can I still harbor illusions about an old fox like you.
If you know what's good for you, you should obediently join my master, otherwise, under the shackles of this restriction chain, what means do you have to escape my master's control?"
Speaking of this, Zoro gently patted the cold, gleaming blade behind him, the blade seeming to respond to his heart, emitting bursts of low hums.
"Even my treasured blade that has followed me for many years is probably not something you old thing can easily deal with.
You should give up your little thoughts."
His words were full of confidence and mockery, making the Divine Sense Old Ancestor's face even more unsightly.
