"Is it Shi Ming and the others?"
"Why did they bring the cultivators here?"
Voices echoed in the halls of the palaces.
"Could it be..."
Very soon, they realized something. Their hearts and minds shook, and even their breathing became hurried.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
A series of whooshes took place as skeletons, half-human half-skeleton existences similar to Shi Ming, and more than ten cultivators with complete flesh and skin covered in dark runes flew out from the hall.
Within the blink of an eye, more than eighty figures with various auras were gathered above the hall. Their eyes were fixed on Qin Nan and Zhang Zhiling.
Zhang Zhiling gasped as his scalp turned numb.
Qin Nan glanced at the figures. Even with his current intelligence, he could not help but feel excited.
Among the eighty figures, more than fifty of them were peak Nine Heavens Supremes, while the rest were in the Greater Success Stage. Not a single one of them was in the early stage of the Nine Heavens Supremes!
"Brother Nan, they still can't control themselves. Even if they aren't willing to, they will still attack you soon. Be careful, try to get rid of a tenth of the curse on them so they can regain their freedom."
Shi Ming quickly transmitted his voice.
"Got it!"
Qin Nan nodded. He first unleashed the Dao Pattern to draw Zhang Zhiling into it. He then turned into a ray of light and charged at the figures.
"Water Defying Sword Art!"
"Art of the Heavens and Earth!"
Even though the eighty-odd figures were unwilling to do so, their bodies were controlled by the power of the curse. They unleashed one Dao technique after another, covering the sky and covering the earth. Their auras were like rainbows.
Qin Nan suddenly moved to the other side. He slashed forward with the Heaven-Shattering Saber, firing thousands of saber intents at the figures like a heavy downpour.
BANG BANG BANG!
A series of densely packed explosions rang out.
Cries of pain rang out one after another. Each of the figures had clouds of black smoke rising from them before disappearing into nothingness.
"The power of the curse has been weakened!"
"Someone is able to weaken the Heaven-Shrouding Curse!"
"HAHAHA, this day has finally come, it's finally here!"
All of the eighty-odd figures were overjoyed, completely ignoring the pain they felt.
Soon after, their gazes simultaneously looked towards Qin Nan, filled with unprecedented fervor.
"Shi Ming, what's the situation now?"
A cultivator in perfect condition asked as he walked out from the formation.
This cultivator had shoulder-length black hair. His eyes were purple-gold, and he wore a white bamboo robe. The joy on his face had already returned to normal, and the aura in his body was as unfathomable as an ancient abyss.
"Brother Nan, he's the 86th Saint of the Xu Clan. His name is Xu Ruchen. Fifty years ago, he was ranked fifteenth on the Sovereign Leaderboard. He's very respected among us. He's like a leader."
Shi Ming first whispered to Qin Nan and then told Xu Ruchen everything that had happened.
Xu Ruchen looked at Qin Nan. He bowed solemnly and said, "Friend Qin Nan, thank you for removing one-tenth of the power of the curse for us, allowing us to regain our freedom."
He calmed down and said, "As for the rest, let's not beat around the bush. If Friend Qin Nan is willing to remove the curse for us, what do you need us to do?"
Qin Nan pondered for a moment and said, "I won't ask for much. Before I remove the curse for you, you will have to swear an Immortal Demon Oath or something. Once the curse is removed, you will serve me wholeheartedly for fifteen years."
As a matter of fact, Qin Nan could ask for thirty years, or even a hundred years. Most people would agree to it.
However, it was not necessary for Qin Nan to do so.
"Only fifteen years of service?"
The figures were overjoyed.
They initially thought Qin Nan was going to ask for an exorbitant price.
Xu Ruochen's eyes flickered with astonishment. He said, "Friend Qin Nan, during the fifteen years of service, if we stumble into someone from the same clan or clan, or someone close to us, can we not harm them?"
Qin Nan shook his head without hesitation and said, "That's not possible, you will have to do it. The most I can do is to stop you from killing them."
He was currently surrounded by enemies. If this condition was added, it would be meaningless for him to keep the people around him.
Xu Ruochen let out a relieved sigh upon hearing this. He was quite satisfied with the outcome.
"Everyone, we've come to an agreement. If you think it's acceptable, you can swear an oath right now."
Xu Ruochen looked at the others and said.
"Friend Qin Nan, I, Zhuang Shisan, swear an oath..."
Over eighty figures immediately swore an Immortal Demon Oath and a few other oaths without any hesitation.
"You're not going to swear an oath?"
Qin Nan raised his brows when he saw Xu Ruochen standing still.
Was he still not satisfied with the conditions?
"Saint Xu, why don't you accept Friend Qin Nan's offer?"
"Yeah, with your talents, you will surely become a Master of Dao once you regain your freedom!"
The others tried to persuade Xu Ruochen.
Xu Ruochen shook his head and said, "The conditions aren't bad, but I, Xu Ruochen, have never lowered my head to submit to anyone. I just have a knot in my heart. Once I resolve it, I will accept Friend Qin Nan's offer. I hope Friend Qin Nan won't mind."
Qin Nan's lips curled upward. This Xu Ruochen was quite interesting.
"I know what you're trying to say, but I won't embarrass you by submitting to me for the time being."
Qin Nan said calmly. He activated the twelve Arts of Dao Seeking in his body.
"Twelve... Arts of Dao Seeking?"
"It's the Illusionary Dao Immortal Manuscript of our Illusionary Immortal Dao Gate!"
The figures were astounded.
Xu Ruochen's eyes widened too. He glanced at the Dao Pattern on the other side and immediately realized something, "You... you've mastered an extraordinary path of cultivation?"
Qin Nan nodded.
Xu Ruochen fell silent for a moment before he said, "If that's the case, I'll swear an oath."
Qin Nan looked at the others and said with a smile, "Everyone, let's do it one at a time."
Xu Ruochen blurted out as a thought crossed his mind, "Friend Qin Nan, please don't use too much force. You just need to weaken half of the curse on us."
"Oh? Why? "
