"Submit yourself completely to me and treat me as your master. I will give you a chance to break through the peak Zhou Tian True God level and become a supreme being. When the time is right, I will consider granting you freedom! "Ling Dong said slowly as he stared at the Southern Luhuang Great Emperor, who had regained consciousness.
Without waiting for the Southern Luhuang Great Emperor to respond, Ling Dong stared into the Southern Luhuang Great Emperor's eyes and said, "You only need to say yes or no. I don't want to hear any other nonsense!"
After he finished speaking, Ling Dong's gaze had already turned towards the Southern Luhuang Great Emperor's old friend, Universal True God Bai Zimo, who had unknowingly returned to the Residence of Ten Thousand Stars.
The warning in his eyes was self-evident.
The Southern Luhuang Great Emperor, who had just regained his consciousness, was still in a state of shock. However, when he heard Ling Dong's warning, he shut his mouth with some difficulty and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
At this moment, the Southern Luhuang Great Emperor felt like he had just survived a calamity.
The moment he lost consciousness, the Southern Luhuang Great Emperor had the urge to self-destruct if he had the ability to do so.
But now, he had miraculously regained consciousness again.
This was impossible in the Southern Luhuang Great Emperor's mind.
His divine embryo had been tainted by more than forty-six percent. That was almost fifty percent. Even if he had regained control of his body and could use the True Sun Flame, the chances of him regaining consciousness would have been infinitely close to zero.
But now, he was awake and standing there. He could clearly sense that his divine embryo, which was almost fifty percent tainted before he lost consciousness, had been purified by more than half. Only twenty percent of it was tainted by the aura of death.
This discovery was what shocked him the most.
Since ancient times, divine embryos were the most difficult to recover from. The aura of death was so terrifying because it was extremely difficult to purify once it entered the divine embryo. Even if he had the True Sun Flame, which was the nemesis of evil things like the aura of death, once more than ten percent of his divine embryo was tainted, it would leave a permanent stain on it.
But now, more than half of his divine embryo had been purified!
Moreover, Ling Dong had even said that he would give him a chance to take that step and become a supreme existence!
Originally, this opportunity had been completely severed the moment his divine embryo had been tainted by more than 10 percent. But now, a glimmer of hope had been ignited in his heart.
Submit to Ling Dong, or refuse?
The short red beard under the Southern Barren Great Emperor's chin trembled slightly, indicating that he was struggling with his decision.
As the supreme being of the Southern Outpost Starfield, it was extremely difficult for him to submit to an existence that was far inferior to him in every aspect.
Although the Southern Luhuang Great Emperor already had the thought of surrendering to Ling Dong, he was still trying to find a reason. It was difficult to find a reason that could convince him to submit to Ling Dong!
"Although there aren't many peak True Celestials in Zhou Tian, there are still quite a few of them. Take the Vermilion Bird Matriarch for example. Although she was a natural-born spirit creature and possessed the bloodline of the Ancestral Phoenix, she still hasn't broken through the peak True Celestial Realm of Zhou Tian and stepped into that supreme realm.
This treasure of mine is called the Star Control Ring. Its greatest use is to help people comprehend the Heavenly Laws faster and allow cultivators to sense the Heavenly Laws more realistically. It is enough to more than double your chances of stepping into that supreme realm! "
As he spoke, a red Star Control Ring flashed past. Given the Southern Barren Great Emperor's cultivation base, he immediately sensed the special aura contained within the Star Control Ring. It was definitely an aura that made his heart race.
"What? Is this the legendary Star Control Ring? Is this the treasure used by the Star Demon? Are you its successor? Is this the Starward Controlling Ring that once created a supreme existence? "The Southern Barren Grand Emperor was shocked and asked a series of questions in an instant.
Ling Dong nodded slightly and did not answer. However, this was enough. As long as the Southern Barren Great Emperor knew about the Star Control Ring's reputation, it would be fine.
Ling Dong also obtained a lot of useful information from the Southern Barren Great Emperor's words. Back then, among the Star Demon's group, there was a supreme being who broke through the peak True Celestial Realm of Zhou Tian.
Who could that person be? A Star Devil, or perhaps …
Seeing Ling Dong nod his head in acknowledgment, the Southern Barren Great Emperor felt relieved. He suddenly felt that he had found a reason to convince himself to become Ling Dong's slave.
Of course, this reason was just a cover-up. It was just a tool to overcome his psychological barrier. The real reason that made him submit was Ling Dong's ruthless methods.
He did not want to live a life worse than death …
He still wanted a future!
After a long time, the Southern Barren Great Emperor, who was deep in thought with his eyes closed, suddenly sighed. "Alright, I accept your conditions. I hope you'll keep your promise …"
After he finished speaking, the Southern Barren Great Emperor completely opened up his mind. He used his human path divine power, the supreme willpower that he had honed over the years, and the pride of an emperor who ruled over the Southern Barren Star Region. He completely opened up the last bit of divine embryo core that he was guarding.
The moment he did so, a unique aura that belonged to Ling Dong and the fire-type Star Control Ring entered the last bit of divine embryo core he was guarding. It fused with his divine embryo core and became indistinguishable!
The Southern Barren Great Emperor knew that from this moment onward, he was no longer the supreme being of billions of people. He was just a slave who served Ling Dong as his master.
He only hoped that day would come sooner. Or rather, he was lucky enough!
At the same time, a hint of joy appeared on Ling Dong's face.
To Ling Dong, subduing the Southern Barren Great Emperor and making him his fire slave was not just a powerful fighter. The sense of accomplishment of subduing the supreme being of the All-heaven Starfield made Ling Dong feel very refreshed.
Of course, the most important thing was that Ling Dong finally possessed a certain level of strength. Even when facing the supreme existences of the eight major starfields, he had the strength to make them feel apprehensive.
Of course, this was on the premise that the Southern Barren Great Emperor's battle prowess had fully recovered.
Since he had completely subdued the Southern Barren Great Emperor, Ling Dong casually sent out balls of seven-colored starlight to quickly purify the Southern Barren Great Emperor's defiled divine embryo.
The seven-colored starlight was extremely powerful in this aspect. Even the Grand Sun Truefire, the nemesis of the evil aura, was inferior to it. As for the defilement of the physical body, the seven-colored starlight was not that powerful.
However, as long as Ling Dong purified the Southern Barren Great Emperor's divine embryo, the Southern Barren Great Emperor would be able to do that himself.
"What's your full name?" Ling Dong suddenly asked. Ling Dong couldn't possibly address him as the Southern Barren Great Emperor or Southern Barren Great Emperor in the future, right?
"I … my surname is Huan. My original name is Huan Jie. As I became the Southern Barren Great Emperor, I added another word to my name, Huan Lujie! You … master … you can address me as such! " The Southern Barren Great Emperor, Huan Lujie, was momentarily unable to adapt to the enormous change in his identity.
However, Ling Dong did not care about that.
As long as he planted the seed that he was the master in the Southern Barren Great Emperor's mind, the hierarchy would only grow stronger and stronger in the future.
Ling Dong nodded lightly and sent out a few more balls of seven-colored starlight. After completely purifying Huan Lujie's divine embryo, he had Huan Lujie use the True Sun Fire to purify his defiled physical body.
Seeing Huan Lujie close his eyes and begin to purify himself, Ling Dong fell into deep thought.
The road to subduing the fire slave Huan Lujie was extremely bumpy. And from the looks of it, although Huan Lujie had submitted to him, it was hard to guarantee that he would not be disloyal.
From this moment onwards, Ling Dong decided that no matter what, he would not give the fire type Star Control Ring to the fire slave Huan Lujie easily. That risk was not something Ling Dong could afford to take.
The main reason was that the Southern Barren Great Emperor's cultivation was too strong. He was so strong that Ling Dong would not be able to deal with him if an accident happened.
According to the late Wood Slave Mu Yuan, the Star Demon had suffered a great loss and gave the Star Control Ring to the Star Slave to participate in the war, but was occasionally betrayed.
After Ling Dong warned himself, he turned his gaze to the center of the whirlpool of the Ultimate Fiend Smoke outside.
At that moment, Ling Dong was about seventy to eighty miles away from the center of the whirlpool of the Ultimate Fiendish Smoke. However, the True God of Heavenly Cycle, Bai Zimo, who had lost his mind, had returned. If Ling Dong wanted to continue moving forward, he had to deal with the True God of Heavenly Cycle, Bai Zimo.
However, it was not difficult to deal with Bai Zimo. A few Divine Ability Ghost Shadows were enough.
"Mas … Master … I have a presumptuous request!" Just as Ling Dong was about to move, Huan Lujie, the Grand Emperor of the South, who was purifying himself with his eyes closed, suddenly spoke with great difficulty.
Ling Dong was very satisfied with the fact that he was able to call Ling Dong 'Lord'. Although it was very difficult, it was already a very big improvement.
"Speak!"
"Mas … Master, can I … give that Bai Zimo … a quick death!" Huan Lujie pleaded.
"Can you?" Ling Dong hesitated for a moment before nodding and sending the Southern Barren Great Emperor out of the Myriad Stars House.
After a few breaths, the mindless Bai Zimo of the Western Gold Soaring Star Zone's Five Tiger Murderers was burned to ashes by the Southern Barren Great Emperor's True Sun Flame.
At the last moment, Ling Dong seemed to have seen a blood-colored divine fetus above Bai Zimo's head, which revealed a look of relief.
"Thank you, Master!" The Southern Barren Great Emperor was becoming more and more familiar with how he addressed Luo Yunyang. Of course, this was also because Ling Dong had agreed to his request. This made the Southern Barren Great Emperor feel that Ling Dong's way of doing things was still acceptable!
Bai Zimo's dissection also made Ling Dong's journey to the center of the Absolute Fiend Wolf Smoke vortex much smoother, aside from resisting the increasingly sharp aura mixed in the Absolute Fiend Wolf Smoke.
"Why is there the aura of an Energy Gathering Array here?" The deeper he went, the more confused Ling Dong became. "No, it's just a little similar to an Energy Gathering Array. It's a very strange array!" Ling Dong frowned.
"Hm? What's that? "
Two hours later, Ling Dong slowly advanced until he was about ten miles away from the center of the whirlpool of the Absolute Evil Wolf Smoke. His gaze suddenly froze. A huge formation boundary flashing with white light was especially eye-catching in this blood black Absolute Evil Wolf Smoke!
However, what was even more eye-catching was the shiny object within the huge array boundary!
