Chapter 8 - Taming

After Li Feiyu learned that the Soul Devouring Yin Plate would absorb a Cultivator's Lifespan, he tried dripping a drop of longevity liquid on it.

Unexpectedly, the ancient Magical Artifact's dormant spiritual consciousness suddenly revived.

The Soul Devouring Yin Plate is very special; it can refine the Divine Souls of absorbed Cultivators and Mortals into Yin Souls. As long as they are not instantly annihilated, they can slowly recover once inside.

Its inherent characteristics allowed it to condense a tool spirit after a period of its existence.

However, as it became damaged, the tool spirit's consciousness was also nearly shattered and fell into a deep sleep.

Its spiritual consciousness reached an agreement with Li Feiyu: it would supply him with a drop of longevity liquid daily, and it guaranteed never to betray him. At critical moments, it could even automatically protect its master.

Li Feiyu readily agreed.

In other people's hands, it was an extremely dangerous ancient Magical Artifact. If one couldn't resist its backlash, it could at most unleash the power of an ordinary top-tier Magical Artifact.

But in Li Feiyu's hands, it was different. After these few months, the Soul Devouring Yin Plate had been completely tamed by him.

Under the nourishment of daily longevity liquid, the Soul Devouring Yin Plate gradually recovered its power. Even if Li Feiyu didn't provide his essence blood, he could still unleash the power of a talisman treasure once or twice using his magical power.

However, for its power to continue increasing, the number of Yin Souls within it had to be increased.

This would have to be done slowly.

"Masked Uncle."

At this moment, Li Fengxing leaped onto the wall and greeted Li Feiyu.

Li Feiyu smiled and said, "Why are you so blatant today? Aren't you afraid of your mother finding out?"

"Hehe, Mom went out."

Li Feiyu said, "Since that's the case, why aren't you hurrying to practice your cultivation?"

"Alright, I'll go call my younger siblings."

Watching the bustling Li Fengxing, Li Feiyu shook his head and chuckled softly, then began teaching them martial arts.

However, by evening, Zhang Xiuer still hadn't returned, and Li Feiyu felt that something was amiss.

Just then, a middle-aged man rushed into the Li Residence. Seeing Li Fengxing and the others, he immediately said, "Fengxing, you must come with me right away. Your mother is in trouble!"

Li Fengxing said, "Uncle Zhang, what happened to my mother? Where is she?"

The middle-aged man was named Zhang Bocheng. He had once received help from Zhang Xiuer, and thus had a good relationship with the Li Residence in Bluestone City.

"Don't ask any more questions, just come with me quickly, otherwise, disaster will strike."

Zhang Bocheng spoke with a face full of anxiety, his eyes revealing a deep sense of powerlessness.

The children also knew that their mother was in danger and immediately started crying, feeling helpless.

Bang~

Just then, the main gate of the Li Residence was forcibly broken open, and several men rushed in.

The leading young man had an indifferent expression and said, "Zhang Bocheng, I knew you would come here. You think you can take them away? Do you think that's possible?"

"These little brats are all excellent bargaining chips."

"Lei Ming, your Lei Family is truly shameless to the extreme, actually forcibly abducting married women. Is there no law anymore?"

"Haha, law? It is their honor for those women to serve an Immortal Master!"

"I'm too lazy to talk to you. Men, seize those three little brats for me. With her, Zhang Xiuer won't dare to disobey and will willingly serve the Immortal Master."

Zhang Bocheng possessed martial arts, but he was only a second-rate expert in the Jianghu. Those guards were all skilled, and two of them working together forced him back, while the remaining guards walked towards Li Fengxing and the others.

They had never seen such a scene before and trembled with fear, but Li Fengxing still stood in front of his younger siblings.

Li Feiyu praised inwardly, 'As expected of my offspring!'

According to the genetic theory of his previous life, Li Feiyu's thought was understandable.

"Masked Uncle, help!"

Li Fengxing shouted loudly.

Lei Ming chuckled, "Kid, calling anyone won't help! Hahaha~"

"Hmph~"

A cold snort rang out, like a heavy hammer striking everyone's hearts. Lei Ming and his subordinates all grunted, blood trickling from the corners of their mouths.

"Is that so? I am here. I'd like to see who can move?!"

Li Feiyu stood atop a osmanthus tree with his hands behind his back, exuding the demeanor of a Grandmaster who looked down upon the world.

Mortal affairs are best resolved by Mortal means; being too ostentatious can easily attract the attention of Cultivators.

Although Li Feiyu had already begun cultivating, he had not completely abandoned Mortal martial arts and occasionally practiced them.

He had now entered the Innate realm, his True Qi transformed into True Essence, becoming a Grandmaster among Mortal Martial Artists.

In close-quarters combat, Li Feiyu could even kill those below the third layer of Qi Condensation with his martial arts.

If a Grandmaster were to establish a Sect, dominating the entire Jing Province would not be a problem.

"Masked Uncle!"

Li Fengxing and the others shouted with joy.

Li Feiyu descended slowly as if walking on the Void, a miraculous feat that truly awed everyone present.

Lei Ming said, "Who are Your Excellency? I advise you not to meddle in others' business."

Li Feiyu said calmly, his expression hidden behind a mask, unseen by anyone.

"Are you threatening me?"

Li Feiyu opened his palm towards a bush, and a suction force erupted, drawing dozens of leaves towards him, where they spun around him.

The leaves moved with his will.

"Go!"

Each leaf seemed to transform into a sharp projectile, flying towards Lei Ming's subordinates.

Their faces filled with terror, they all unleashed their True Qi to defend themselves.

Puff puff~

But their True Qi walls were like paper, easily pierced through.

Screams erupted, and they instantly met their demise!

Zhang Bocheng watched in a daze, stammering, "True Qi that condenses and does not disperse, capable of existing externally for a period of time, is True Essence."

"You are... an Innate realm Grandmaster Martial Artist!"

"Masked Uncle, you're amazing!"

The children danced with joy, showing little fear at the sight of the dead, but rather great excitement.

Li Feiyu looked at Lei Ming. Lei Ming stumbled backward, tripping over himself and falling to the ground. His mind was in chaos, and he immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy, "Grandmaster Senior, spare my life, I did not mean to offend you!"

"My family has vast wealth, I can give it all to you!"

"I am the only heir of the Lei Family!"

"Noisy!"

A palm formed from True Essence flew out and slapped him directly across the face. He covered his face and immediately fell silent.

Li Feiyu said, "Zhang Bocheng, right? Take them to hide in my courtyard. I'm going to the Lei Family."

"Lei Ming, lead the way."

Lei Ming's heart instantly filled with joy, and he immediately got up.

What if he's a Grandmaster? Can he defeat an Immortal Master?!

Hmph, once we get to my house, with an Immortal Master in charge, I'd like to see what you can do to me.

Once I capture you, I will sever your tendons and hamstrings, making you kneel before me and beg for mercy every day!

"But, Senior, the Lei Family has..."

Li Feiyu raised his hand and said, "I know what I'm doing. Do as I say."

Feeling the oppressive force from him, Zhang Bocheng said nothing more.

The Lei Residence was the foremost martial arts family in Bluestone City, managing various businesses with a complex network of connections.

"Senior, this is my Lei Family."

Back at the Lei Residence, Lei Ming straightened his back.

He led the way, bringing Li Feiyu through the main gate of the Lei Family.

Before long, Lei Ming's roar came from inside the gate, "Close the gate! Everyone, attack him together!"

"Kill him!"
