Once, I wanted to be a good person

Chapter 288: The Venerable Driven to Social Death by Fang Ze’s Persuasion (Part 2)



Along with his clapping, a pitch-black helicopter suddenly flew out from the Heaven Beyond the Heavens.

"Boom boom boom~" Accompanied by the massive rotation of the rotor blades, the helicopter quickly flew over the auction venue!

Soon after, the helicopter door opened, and twelve Bronze Divine Coffins were thrown down from above.

"Boom boom boom!" With twelve loud crashes, the twelve coffins landed and lined up on both sides of the stage.

Meanwhile, the Spotted Whale Venerable also flew up into the air and arrived at the stage.

Fang Ze cautiously took two steps back, with one foot touching the Demigod realm.

Seeing this, the Spotted Whale Venerable merely smiled nonchalantly and said, "Why are you being so cautious? There are so many Venerables here who wish I'd attack you, just so they'd have a valid excuse to back out of this deal."

Whether the Spotted Whale Venerable is truly straightforward or just feigning innocence, his straightforward remarks instantly diffused the tense, gunpowder-like atmosphere on site.

Apparently bold due to his skill, he paid no mind to the atmosphere, and with a wave of his hand, the lids of the twelve Bronze Divine Coffins flew open, revealing bodies covered in frost.

Witnessing this scene, the Venerables whispered among themselves, "This seems like a Blue Blood Divine Skill? It appears his power has grown even stronger, to be able to freeze demigods at the Absolute Pinnacle."

One Venerable, an expert on artifacts, inspected them closely and softly said, "These Bronze Divine Coffins seem special as well."

"That Blue Blood Skill, although powerful, probably couldn't be sustained this long without these divine coffins."

Meanwhile, as the Venerables below whispered among themselves, the Spotted Whale Venerable announced, "Since we're attending your auction, we'll abide by your rules! Once the deal is done, I guarantee you'll leave here smoothly!"

"However, before that, we need to inspect the goods first."

"Our eleven demigods are already delivered, can we test your [God-Sealing Talisman Paper] now?"

Upon hearing the Spotted Whale Venerable, Fang Ze didn't hesitate, boldly waving his hand and saying, "Since you're following the auction rules, then of course there's no problem!"

With that, Fang Ze looked towards the twelve Divine Fiends, inquiring, "Which one is the Divine Fiend for your test?"

Hearing Fang Ze's words, the Spotted Whale Venerable waved his hand, and the Divine Fiend in the far right bronze coffin flew onto the stage, standing between him and Fang Ze. He then gestured, saying, "Please."

Fang Ze looked at the Divine Fiend, handing over the Talisman Paper to the Spotted Whale Venerable, "Since it's an experiment, it's better for you to do it yourself."

As he spoke, he took out another piece of paper and handed it to the Spotted Whale Venerable, "This is the method to use the God-Sealing Talisman Paper."

The Spotted Whale Venerable nonchalantly took the paper and glanced at it, only to look towards Fang Ze with an odd expression moments later, "Is this really the method?"

Fang Ze nodded with a smile, "Yes."

The Spotted Whale Venerable, with a slight frown, looked at the paper again. The instructions for using the "God-Sealing Talisman Paper" were simple but somewhat odd and embarrassing.

According to the paper, there were three steps to control a Divine Fiend.

First step: Take out the talisman paper and stick it on the Divine Fiend's forehead. Shout loudly: Ooh la la, I seal you in the name of the moon!

If you feel a slight weight or some spiritual power is lost, it means it's effective. The Divine Fiend will also disappear accordingly.

Second step: Wait two minutes.

Third step: Gather your spirit and shout loudly: Only those who believe in Divine Fiend will see, come out, Divine Fiend!

Looking at these seemingly childish steps and the "incantation," the Spotted Whale Venerable felt completely dumbfounded.

Could this possibly be serious?!

Is this really the incantation to activate an artifact that can seal and control Divine Fiends?!

With these thoughts swirling, he glanced at Fang Ze once more.

And when he saw Fang Ze confident and composed, he began to waver: Could human artifacts really be this peculiar?

As he hesitated, the Venerables below were also curious about what the paper said that made the Spotted Whale Venerable so hesitant, setting off a buzz of discussion.

The Spotted Whale Venerable gulped, glancing towards the crowd below, and his eyes met those of Blue Blood Venerable.

With a slightly puzzled look, the Blue Blood Venerable signaled: What are you waiting for? Why aren't you verifying it?

Upon seeing the Blue Blood Venerable's urging, amid the noisy discussion from the Venerables below, though feeling the content of Fang Ze's paper was extremely odd and shouted aloud seemed indescribably embarrassing.... but now the arrow is drawn, there's no choice but to fire.

So he made up his mind, closed his eyes, then holding the paper, shouted loudly, "Ooh la la! I seal you in the name of the moon!" Saying that, he stuck the Corpse-driving talisman paper onto the forehead of the Divine Fiend before him!

At that moment, the previously noisy scene suddenly fell silent. All Venerables stared, dumbfounded, at the Spotted Whale Venerable on stage, while Fang Ze's lips curled into a smile, nearly bursting out in laughter.

Meanwhile, the Spotted Whale Venerable couldn't care less about the social death he might be facing because when he shouted the incantation, his body suddenly felt heavy, as if a bit of spiritual power had been swiftly drained!

Remembering the paper's instructions, he quickly opened his eyes, and before his eyes, the Divine Fiend with the talisman paper on its forehead vanished without a trace.

Seeing this scene, the Spotted Whale Venerable turned to Fang Ze in astonishment, with only one thought: He wasn't lying?! Is this all real?

Meanwhile, the Venerables below widened their eyes in shock at the scene.

As one of the most powerful groups in this world, the Venerables prided themselves on knowing various artifacts and abilities well.

So the moment they heard "Ooh la la, I seal you in the name of the moon" as the activation phrase, they almost couldn't hold it in, thinking, like the Spotted Whale Venerable, it must be fake, that Fang Ze was deliberately mocking the Spotted Whale!

But then.... they witnessed the Divine Fiend vanish into thin air.

This utterly shattered their worldview: Is this really an incantation? Could there really be such an odd activation phrase? Is the world becoming too crazy, or are they just falling behind?

Meanwhile, standing atop the stage, Fang Ze subtly noted every Venerable's expression. Maintaining his composure, he said to the astonished Spotted Whale Venerable, "Why is the Venerable so surprised? Could it be you doubt I've given the wrong activation phrase for the artifact?"

Realizing his overly visible delight, the Spotted Whale Venerable coughed to cover up, "No. I just feel the talisman paper is truly extraordinary."

Fang Ze smiled, hinting, "You'll find it even more extraordinary soon."

Thus, they casually chatted onstage for two minutes.

After two minutes passed, the Spotted Whale Venerable quickly asked, "Is the time up? Can I summon the Divine Fiend now?"

Fang Ze replied with a smile, "Of course."

Once accustomed to the embarrassment of the activation incantation, the Spotted Whale Venerable this time seemed more confident when shouting it.

Standing on stage, hands on hips, he confidently shouted, "Only those who believe in Divine Fiend will see, come out, Divine Fiend!"

With the end of his words, the Divine Fiend from earlier actually reappeared in its original spot.

At this moment, the Venerables couldn't bother with the awkwardness of the activation phrase, as all their attention focused on the newly appeared Divine Fiend: whether the artifact has truly taken effect, and its outcome, would be revealed immediately!

Meanwhile, the Spotted Whale Venerable, full of expectation, looked at the Divine Fiend and then tore off the talisman paper from its forehead. He pulled out a lighter-like object from his chest, opened it, and blew towards the Divine Fiend.

Instantly, a shower of sparks landed on the frozen Divine Fiend.

As the sparks flew, the frost covering the Divine Fiend gradually dissipated, and it opened its eyes.

Its "memory" seemed to linger on the moment it was frozen, so upon release, it immediately pounced menacingly towards the Spotted Whale Venerable!
