Chen Changan glanced at Touba Ye’s wounds and pulled a spiritual herb from the ground.
The herb turned into a pill in his hand. “Take it.”
It was like the work of a god, turning some random herb into a pill just by touching it.
The demon kings were frozen from shock once more. Touba Ye took the pill and felt the pure and bursting vitality coming from it. He swallowed it without a doubt since Chen Changan could’ve killed him with a flick. Why bother using convoluted schemes?
[Why would the Senior give this to me?]
He understood once he swallowed it. The pill turned into a flood of vitality, soaking and mending his grave wound, healing under the naked eye.
The savage flick left a bloody and mangled gap in his chest, but it was now replaced by flawless skin. It was like he hadn’t been hurt in the first place.
On top of it all, his aura increased as well. The remaining vitality of the pill soaked the rest of his body, making Touba Ye shudder from the incredible energy.
He just advanced!
Touba Ye had been stuck at the 3rd layer of Nascent Soul for over three centuries now, yet he just raised his cultivation just like that. This should’ve taken him three centuries more!
It was outside his understanding how taking Senior’s healing pill healed and advanced his cultivation.
[It had to be an immortal pill!]
Hong Yi and She Zini felt Touba Ye’s change as well. These three demons had the same cultivation for ages since the higher stage one reached, the harder it got. Even a small increase took years!
They understood more than anyone just how hard it was for Touba Ye to go from peak 3rd layer to 4th.
“I can’t thank you enough for the immortal pill, Senior!” Touba Ye cupped his hands, touched to the core.
Chen Changan said, “I’m offering you a chance to make amends. Submit.”
His gaze was flat, hiding the restlessness in his heart. To get three Nascent Soul demon kings under him, he had to fake it like a champ.
They could prove to be a great help outside Absolute Domain.
His Master’s fate never left his mind. [He’s been gone for a month now. Something must’ve happened to him for the barrier to drop.]
Sending the three demon kings to scout for his Master was a good plan, and finding out his fate.
Chen Changan looked at all three of them in turn.
Touba Ye replied on the spot, “I wholly submit my humble services, Senior.”
He had lived for two thousand years already, yet never had he encountered a Spirit Severing expert capable of making pills on the spot and not only healing but advancing his cultivation as well. Chen Changan’s skills were beyond them.
His instinct told him that this man before him could make him go beyond his demonic condition. Touba Ye grasped this chance on the spot.
He was a descendant of the chaos demons, having pride and self-respect, hardly holding anyone worthy. Hong Yi and She Zini gasped at how easily he gave in like that.
[He just submitted over a pill?]
“One submitted, what about you two?” Chen Changan asked.
Agreeing meant life. Refusing meant death.
Having no use for him meant their only outcome would be domain points left to be harvested.
Hong Yi glanced at the budding Everlasting Immortal Tree and said, “Senior, I submit!”
“Senior, I leave my life in sir’s capable and wise hands.”
She Zini was the only one left and agreed as well, but not forgetting to butter him up at the end.
She Zini and Hong Yi entered Chen Changan’s domain at long last as his capable followers. Getting three Nascent Soul demon kings was an unexpected surprise.
“Since you’re working for me now, just call me Young Master instead.”
“Young Master.”
These lofty demon kings actually bowed their heads to someone.
They still needed time to adjust to the idea and get into their new roles. Chen Changan knew it as well. The demon kings had submitted, yes, but it was more apt to say that his power won them over.
Chen Changan didn’t want to get them through fear, for they could just leave him hanging and alone at any time.
The best way was to win their hearts. The real question was how.
Chen Changan had an idea. “As you’ve come to my side, I will be sure to look after you.”
Chen Changan used creation on the three. Learning from Ling Bao’er’s experiment, he wanted to give the demon kings a minute bump in talent.
Each person, monster, demon, or creature, had their talent set at birth, never to change again.
The demon kings were damn strong, but their talent kept them stuck at the Nascent Soul Stage. Increasing that meant ease of cultivation.
It was precisely the same reason why they all went crazy in getting Ling Bao’er as a disciple. They all saw her incredible talent, a chosen no less, one capable of endless potential.
She was at Golden Core Stage at the tender age of 11 for heaven’s sake!
Nascent Soul was going to be a breeze. Even Spirit Severing wasn’t a stretch.
The demon kings, however, had meager talents by comparison. With but a non-zero chance of reaching Spirit Severing.
After using creation, the three demon kings clearly felt their bodies transform. They felt their talent growing. The feeling brought them close to tears.
[This can’t be! How could a fixed talent ever be increased? This defies all logic!]
