Cultivation Helped by Ancestors-Chapter 286 - 243: Subjugation

In the blink of an eye, An Ruming felt the hand above his head was like a Divine Mountain, impossible to cross.

He couldn’t comprehend it at the same time.

This Star Divination Technique was an untransmitted core Mysterious Technique within the Daqian Army, containing the miracle of Breaking Technique with the Daqian Dragon Vein Dragon Qi.

Even if it were to suppress, it should have been with a Physical Body Technique to subdue it, but the opponent actually controlled his Starlight Divine Aspect with Magic.

An Ruming’s eyes spewed out intense, fiery starlight.

He was unwilling to be easily held hostage, let alone allow his bottom line to be touched.

No matter what, he could not allow Princess Consort Song to suffer any possible accident.

His Martial Dao Will was like wolf smoke, vaguely merging with the countless starlights above his head, and the giant wolf of starlight above let out a terrifying howl. It once again transformed into the tangible wolf-headed human-bodied Star Monarch Dharma Aspect.

The Greedy Wolf Star’s radiance above shone brighter than ever before.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Jian’s eyes slightly moved.

It seems that after the military generals in the Daqian Army reached the Land Immortal Demon Realm, they discovered a new path.

The power of the Star Monarch Greedy Wolf not only contained the power of the Ancient Main Star of the Greedy Wolf Star, but also an indescribable First Layer of Divine Dao power, capable of stripping away blessings, destiny, and suppressing Magical Power.

Other Yin Spirit Venerable would have to be cautious to avoid mishap.

But he was different!

He raised his palm, still countless starlights flowed from his body, with a faint shape of the Big Dipper behind him, along with the Marvelous Power of the Chaotic Star Technique that All Heaven Stars Seal Void.

A grasp down, and the roaring Starlight Divine Being was easily pierced through by the numerous Sword Qi flowing between his five fingers, effortlessly captured in the depths of his palm.

Even the Greedy Wolf Star’s light above was thoroughly severed.

At this moment, An Ruming’s face changed color, standing there, only feeling his life seemingly fallen within a palm, the opponent’s aura majestic like the heavens and earth, capable of crushing him to drink grudge in the northwest with just a squeeze.

"...This!"

An Ruming’s face changed dramatically, this situation was beyond his imagination.

The Star Martial Dao was confirmed by many strong people within the Daqian Army, even involving many cultivators, though not fully formed, it was indeed able to restrain cultivators. Why was he being toyed with by the opponent now?

As his eyes changed, An Ruming clasped his fists and said solemnly, "May I ask which Master has descended, why tease a junior!"

Zhang Jian looked at him.

Master?

An Ruming clearly thought he had encountered a Primordial Spirit Master!

Obviously, An Ruming was not fully convinced in his heart!

Those who carry the Greedy Wolf Star Formation are indeed quite extraordinary!

Zhang Jian smiled slightly, all his foundational Magical Powers were based on the three Hidden Dragon Fates.

Now the three fates, one relying on the Dragon Soul to transform into the Emperor’s Fate’s Tripod Calms Heaven and Earth, one is King’s Command Red Virtue True King, and the next is the Hidden Dragon Fate with Dragon Robe and Phoenix Attitude.

The Magical Power within his body naturally feared no Breaking Technique force, furthermore possessing the ability to seize the Dragon Vein, how could he fear this Star Martial Dao formed on the basis of Dragon and Tiger Qi.

Zhang Jian’s gaze fell on An Ruming.

"Submit?"

That gaze looked over, as if piercing directly into An Ruming’s heart, making him feel as if he had no place to hide under this gaze.

An Ruming’s face changed slightly.

"My life is in the hands of the senior, to kill or to maim as you wish, I am not a person who fears death for the sake of life!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian’s eyes showed a trace of a cold smile.

He lightly pinched his fingers.

"Ah!"

An Ruming’s expression changed, feeling as if a great force squeezed his internal organs to shatter.

He couldn’t help but cry out in pain.

It wasn’t directly applied to his flesh but penetrated through his Star Power deep into the soul.

"An Ruming, in my eyes, you are like an ant, ready to be crushed at any moment!"

Zhang Jian’s entire being was enveloped in moonlight, his gaze as indifferent as the eternal Bright Moon above.

"I will give you one more chance, kneel down, and beg me! Beg me to spare your miserable life!"

"There is no need to pretend to be noble in front of me. You seduced Emperor Jingwu’s concubine. That Emperor was initially your benefactor; it was his favor that allowed you to return to Haojing City from the battlefield at the border, yet you betrayed him. You are by nature a treacherous person; now kneel!"

The icy voice, like a Demon Curse, fell word by word into An Ruming’s ears, making him feel all the darkness within his heart completely exposed before Zhang Jian’s eyes.

No secret was left uncovered.

An Ruming’s face turned pale.

Subconsciously, he knelt on one knee.

Yet his fingers nearly clawed into the ground, a fire of unprecedented rage rising in his heart; such humiliation he had never endured.

Zhang Jian’s five digits claw-like, gently pinched An Ruming’s Star Soul, making An Ruming feel a splitting headache, pressing him to the ground in madness.

"Senior, spare me!"

He howled in agony.

Zhang Jian’s demeanor remained unchanged.

Those who cultivate the Greedy Wolf Star Formation are inherently lacking loyalty, inherently self-serving.

Kindness holds little sway.

Instead, only by sowing a strong, fearful seed in his heart, making him genuinely feel reverence, terror, could he be fully controlled.

As for how deeply affectionate he appeared, Zhang Jian didn’t find it credible either.

Probably more an impulsive moment, when it passes, nature resumes, ready for betrayal.

Zhang Jian’s mind echoed the classic phrase, how could a great man remain oppressed for long, and then wielding a halberd beheading a righteous father.

Moments later, seeing An Ruming lying on the ground, gasping weakly, Zhang Jian slowly released the Star Soul in his hand.

"Well?!"

An Ruming lay on the ground long silent, a hoarse, shallow breath eventually heard.

"Willing to obey the master’s instructions!"

Zhang Jian stood tall, gaze cold. "I know your heart harbors hatred for me, but that doesn’t matter, just follow orders well, otherwise, even hidden among thousands of soldiers, I can still take your head!"

With that, Zhang Jian waved his hand, releasing the wolf-shaped star formation, allowing it to return to An Ruming’s body.

Despite the tenacity of a Celestial Martial General’s life force, after a moment, An Ruming slowly rose, staggering.

Seeing this, Zhang Jian remained indifferent, simply saying:

"Do you know you’ve been targeted?"

An Ruming’s eyes were vacant, only slightly reacting, still dazed.

The pain from the soul a hundredfold more excruciating than the flesh, etched into his memory.

Zhang Jian’s cold voice echoed again: "The Golden Maiden Sect has long noticed the anomaly between you and Princess Consort Song, if not for me, you could only imagine your fate!"

Mentioning Princess Consort Song, An Ruming slightly regained clarity, after a brief silence, he knelt again. "I humbly ask for the master’s guidance!"

Seeing this, Zhang Jian’s eyes revealed a trace of satisfaction, his gaze resting on An Ruming, then said: "Your matter with the princess consort will eventually be exposed. I will help find ways to heal her and even assist you in bringing her out of West Mountain Temple..."

An Ruming’s eyes flickered with a ripple, bowing as he said.

"If the master can help bring the princess consort out of West Mountain Temple, Ruming is willing to serve the master with absolute loyalty, to offer his life if necessary!" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Seeing this, Zhang Jian’s expression remained cold.

Rescuing the princess from West Mountain Temple wasn’t a great challenge; the difficulty lay in ensuring the court wouldn’t pursue and leaving no loose ends.

Also, making her the tether to bind An Ruming, this hungry wolf!
