Chapter 497: Subjugation
On the outskirts of the ghost realm, on the edge of the yin and yang boundary, in a huge palace.
Chen Jiu sat there silently, frowning and thinking.
He has been waiting for three days, but the remaining ancestors of the ghost realm are still staying in Uttarakuru and refusing to come back. What should he do?
At this moment, he had cracked all the divine kingdoms and spaces of Ancestor Tuntian, Ancestor Skeleton and Ancestor Qiangliang that he could crack. Except for hundreds of thousands of ghost cultivators and tens of thousands of skeletons in the three life and death spaces, he had nothing else to gain.
The problem is that this only gain is still a burden for him, and it is a huge burden at that. He has to let Patriarch Bei Ming and Patriarch Xuan Yin each bring 20,000 ghost fairies and ghost gods to control the bat god puppets to sit in the two kingdoms of God and suppress the ghost cultivators under Patriarch Tun Tian and Patriarch Qiang Liang.
What is even more worrying is that the hundreds of thousands of skeletons under the Skeleton Ancestor seem to be a little restless. If any of these guys knows how to enter and exit the Skeleton Ancestor's space of life and death, it will be a big trouble.
If the other party comes out with a bunch of skeletons, he will be unable to defeat them without calling in soldiers from the Divine Realm Legion.
He really didn't expect that this would be the result after killing the three ghost realm ancestors.
At the moment he seemed to be in a dilemma. There were 480,000 demon gods in the Divine Realm Legion, and tens of thousands of true gods and more than 100,000 earth immortals who arranged the Nine-Curve Formation on both sides, including Yuyi Tianzun, Shuiling Tianzun, Bailing Tianzun, Yunxiao Tianzun, and even the Bat God puppets controlled by Beiming Patriarch, Xuanyin Patriarch and 40,000 ghost immortals seemed to be stuck here and unable to move.
He had to think of a way. This was the majority of his men's strength, and he couldn't just keep wasting time here.
What should we do?
He was just frowning in deep thought when Yuyi Tianzun suddenly sent a telepathic message: "Master Jiu, there is a bone dragon over a thousand feet long that has been flying back and forth for several times. This guy is now circling over the Nine Bends Formation. He seems to have seen something. What should we do?"
A bone dragon thousands of feet long?
Fire Dragon Lord!
This guy is the disciple of Skeleton Ancestor. Could he be looking for a master?
Chen Jiu was stunned when he heard this.
To be honest, he had a pretty good impression of this Fire Dragon Lord. This guy at least knew how to deal with the situation. The last time he and Patriarch Xuanming blocked this guy together, this guy knew that he was no match for the two ancestors, so he was very honest and did not dare to act rashly at all.
Moreover, this guy's temperament doesn't seem to be arrogant or insidious. He seems to have some honesty of the demon clan.
He still likes dealing with the demon clan, especially those who know how to deal with the times.
Chen Jiu thought about it carefully, then raised his hand and wiped his face, and instantly turned into the appearance of the transformed ancestor Xuanyin.
Seeing this, Yunxiao Tianzun couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Ajiu, what are you doing? Why are you transformed into the appearance of a snake master?"
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "You guys keep an eye on it for me. I'm going to go talk to the bone dragon."
After saying that, he expanded his spiritual sense and scanned.
Sure enough, the Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable was circling back and forth above the Nine-Curve Formation.
Because this guy is just a skeleton and has no expression on his face, he doesn't know what he is thinking.
He flashed directly in front of this guy and smiled slightly, "Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable, what are you doing here?"
Why does this voice sound so familiar?
Fire Dragon Heavenly Master was stunned when he heard this.
Because Chen Jiu was the size of an ordinary person at this time, he was just like an ant in front of him, and it was difficult to see him clearly.
He stretched out his huge head, got close to Chen Jiu and took a look. He immediately shrank his neck in fear and trembled, "Ancestor, I really didn't steal your puppets. I told them, but they didn't want to return them. I had no choice."
This guy still remembers it.
Chen Jiu shook his head slightly and said, "I didn't come to you for those puppets."
Upon hearing this, Fire Dragon Lord couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't because of those puppets.
He asked carefully: "Ancestor, what is that?"
Chen Jiu stared at him and said slowly: "Your master is dead, did you know?"
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable's reaction was indeed a little beyond his expectations. This guy actually sighed slightly and said, "I have vaguely guessed it these days."
Chen Jiu asked curiously, "Aren't you sad that your master died?"
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable still sighed slightly and said, "Why should I be sad? My master only taught me some ghost cultivation techniques and he was indifferent to me. He usually ignored me except for sending me to do things. He accepted me because he saw that I was at the Heavenly Venerable level and had some strength."
Chen Jiu suddenly realized, "Were you at the level of Heavenly Venerable when you were alive?"
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable nodded slightly, and couldn't help but sighed, "Yes, I was at the Heavenly Venerable level when I was alive. It's been more than 100,000 years, and I haven't made any progress."
It has been more than a hundred thousand years. Is this the end of his life?
Chen Jiu had an idea when he heard this. He took out a box of ninth-level demon beast blood crystals and tempted him, "This is worth thousands of bottles of divine pills. Do you want it?"
What does this mean?
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable was stunned for a moment, then nodded repeatedly and said, "I think so."
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "Do you know how to transform? If you want, transform yourself into a human and show me."
I can transform naturally.
However, I have never transformed into a human.
Fire Dragon Lord looked at his appearance carefully, thought for a while, and then transformed into a human form.
You know what, this guy looks almost like the Xuanyin Patriarch.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, then stuffed a box of monster blood crystals over and said generously: "Try it."
Fire Dragon Tianzun couldn't wait to take the box, opened it, grabbed a handful of monster blood crystals and stuffed them into his mouth.
Soon, he said with surprise on his face: "This thing is really comparable to a magic pill!"
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, and continued to tempt: "Do you still want this thing? There is also a magic pill, do you want it?"
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable nodded excitedly and said, "Yes, I do."
Chen Jiu asked again: "Do you know who I am?"
Uh, aren’t you the Xuanyin Patriarch?
Upon hearing this, Fire Dragon Lord was stunned and didn't know what to say.
Chen Jiu wiped his face, turned back to his own appearance, and smiled slightly: "Do you know who I am now?"
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable shook his head blankly and said, "I don't know."
Chen Jiu said solemnly: "I am the Lord of Jiuling Mountain Divine Dynasty."
Oh my god, it’s this guy!
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable said with a look of shock: "You are Master Jiu!"
Hehe, it seems that I have made a name for myself in the divine world.
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "You have heard of my name."
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable said honestly: "Who in the God Realm doesn't know the reputation of Master Jiu?"
Chen Jiu simply said: "Since you know my reputation, are you willing to join me?"
Fire Dragon Tianzun looked at the monster blood crystal in his hand and nodded repeatedly, saying, "I do."
very good.
Chen Jiu said solemnly: "As long as you do your job well for me, the magic pill and this monster blood crystal are not a problem. I can extend your life. If you betray me, I can also take your life. Do you understand?"
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable nodded repeatedly and said, "I understand, I understand, Master Jiu, don't worry, I'm not that kind of person. Even if the Skeleton Ancestor treated me badly, I did my best to serve him. Now that he's dead, I joined Master Jiu's sect to prolong my life. This shouldn't be considered a betrayal, right?"
You are really honest.
Chen Jiu couldn't help but ask: "You were a demon in your lifetime, right?"
Fire Dragon Celestial Venerable continued nodding his head and said, “Yes, Master Jiu, I was a demon in my previous life. Unfortunately, I died in the great war between the demons. I did not want to give up my soul and reincarnate, so I came to the ghost realm. As a result, I happened to meet the Skeleton Ancestor.
He went to the battle site and took my body away, refined it into a skeleton, and then taught me some ghost cultivation techniques, letting me practice in his skeleton, and that’s how I became his disciple.”
It turns out that your skeleton is still your own.
Chen Jiu pondered: "Perhaps, if I give you a bottle of regeneration pill, you can return to your physical body."
Upon hearing this, Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable could not help but said excitedly: "Really? That's great!"
Chen Jiu said bluntly: "I haven't tried this, and I don't know if it will work."
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable said with hope on his face: "It's always good to have a glimmer of hope."
This guy has a really good temper.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, and then said solemnly: "Let's talk about this later. Now, I have a headache. I have killed the ancestors of Tian Tun, Qiang Liang and Skeleton, but their subordinates are still in their life and death space. There are more than 200,000 ghost cultivators and more than 100,000 skeletons. It is really difficult to deal with them. Do you have a way to persuade them to surrender?
I'm not talking about the kind that surrenders on the surface but secretly wants to go against me, I'm talking about the kind that really listens to me and does things for me."
this.
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable looked at the monster blood crystal in his hand and asked carefully: "Master Jiu, do you have a lot of this?"
Chen Jiu heard this and suddenly realized, "You mean, if I give those Heavenly Lords the blood crystals and divine pills to extend their lives, they will listen to me?"
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable nodded slowly and said, "Yes, they don't have much time left to live, so they should surrender in order to prolong their lives. As long as all the Heavenly Venerables surrender, the True Lords, ghosts and gods will have to listen to them.
However, you can't just give them boxes at a time like this, you have to give them a little bit every month, just enough for them to survive so that you can control their lifeline and make them work for you."
Oh, you are really nice.
Chen Jiu thought about it, and simply took out five boxes of Demon God Nine-Layered Blood Crystals and five hundred bottles of magic pills, and said solemnly: "I'll leave this matter to you, can you do it for me?"
When Fire Dragon Tianzun saw so many monster blood crystals and magic pills, he couldn't help but be moved and said, "Master Jiu, since you trust me so much, I will definitely get this done for you."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu said without hesitation: "Okay, put these away and let's go."
Upon hearing this, Fire Dragon Lord hurriedly put the monster blood crystals and divine pills into his own kingdom of God.
Chen Jiu wrapped him in his spiritual sense and flew quickly, and soon they arrived at the huge palace.
Seeing this, Yunxiao Tianzun was stunned and asked: "Ajiu, who is this? Are you kidding us?"
Uh, this.
He made himself look like this, I didn't make him look like this.
Chen Jiulue said awkwardly: "This is Mr. Long, I asked him to help."
After that, he explained in detail to Fire Dragon Tianzun the methods of entering and exiting the three spaces of life and death.
Fire Dragon Lord silently comprehended for a while, then took a look at the size of the palace, then transformed into a bone dragon of ten feet in length, and whooshed into the life and death space of the Skeleton Ancestor.
At this moment, Skeleton Ancestor's subordinates were really anxious, because it had been several days and Skeleton Ancestor had not released them yet. This was obviously not right.
Before flying across the Yin and Yang boundary, Skeleton Lord had sent a message through his telepathic consciousness, asking them to be ready for action. As a result, after three days of preparation, the Skeleton Lord still hadn't let them out to take action.
It is impossible that they cannot fly over the Yin and Yang world in three days. Even if the Skeleton Ancestor does not want to take action, he cannot just leave them in the space of life and death. Something must have happened.
None of them knew how to enter and exit the space of life and death of Skeleton Lord, otherwise, they would have escaped long ago.
As soon as the Fire Dragon Heavenly Master rushed in, the other Heavenly Masters under the Skeleton Ancestor were so excited that they immediately surrounded him and asked him endless questions.
What is going on? What is the ancestor doing? Why doesn’t he let them out? How is the battle in the ghost realm going?
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable led them to a distance of five or six hundred miles, then took out several bottles of magic pills and a handful of monster blood crystals and said solemnly: "The Skeleton Ancestor has been killed by Master Jiu. If you want to live, then listen to Master Jiu. Master Jiu will give you these monster blood crystals and magic pills every month to extend your lives. If you don't want to live, Master Jiu will immediately lead the army in and kill you all."
this!
When several Heavenly Masters heard this, they were stunned on the spot.
It turned out that the Skeleton Ancestor was killed by Jiu Ye, the Lord of the Jiuling Mountain Divine Dynasty. No wonder they were not summoned out for so many days.
As for whether you want to die or live, you don’t have to think about it.
They must all want to live, and the Skeleton Ancestor is not good to them, so they will not risk their lives to avenge the Skeleton Ancestor.
Several Heavenly Lords took the divine pills and monster blood crystals without hesitation, and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Okay, we will listen to Master Jiu."
That's easy.
After the Fire Dragon Celestial Venerable gave a detailed explanation, the Celestial Venerables flashed back and shouted, then gathered their subordinates. The Fire Dragon Celestial Venerable gathered them into his own life and death space, and quickly got out of the Skeleton Ancestor's life and death space. Then he said solemnly, "Master Jiu, I have convinced the Skeleton Ancestor's subordinates, and now they are all in my life and death space."
very good.
Chen Jiu saw all the ways in which Fire Dragon Heavenly Master conquered the Heavenly Masters under the command of Skeleton Ancestor.
This guy is really good. He is smart, knows how to deal with current affairs, is honest, and is very capable in doing things.
Chen Jiu was very satisfied. He took out a box of tiger dragon blood crystals and praised: "Master Long, you did a great job, very neat and clean. Not bad, not bad. This is a Heavenly Venerable-level tiger dragon blood crystal. One is as good as a bottle of magic pill. This is your reward for conquering the Skeleton Ancestor's subordinates. There are two more groups to come. Keep working hard."
My God, he got such a big reward just for saying a few words. It’s so cool to work with Master Jiu.
Fire Dragon Heavenly Venerable nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, Master Jiu, I will definitely help you subdue the subordinates of Patriarch Tuntian and Patriarch Qiangliang."
He can't attack directly now. After all, Fire Dragon Tianzun was originally a subordinate of Skeleton Ancestor. It is naturally easier for him to subdue his former comrades. However, it is not so easy for him to subdue the subordinates of Tuntian Ancestor and Qiangliang Ancestor.
Chen Jiu thought about it carefully, and then used his telepathic consciousness to explain to Patriarch Bei Ming, and only then did he allow Fire Dragon Tianzun to enter Patriarch Tuntian's kingdom of God.
