Soul Emperor Martial God

Xiao Yi's fist's aura turned increasingly terrifying.

Even under this aura, the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile directly prostrated on the ground.

Without even the desire to resist.

This was the gap brought about by absolute power, giving rise to absolute pressure.

Originally, with just one drop of Asura Power, Xiao Yi's Boundary Shattering Fist was already capable of instantly killing a Mystic Breakthrough Ninth Layer Martial Artist.

Now, with seventeen drops, the immense power could be imagined.

"Submit, or die," Xiao Yi said coldly.

He was merely channeling power now.

He hadn't even made his move.

"Hahahaha."

A deep, hoarse laugh emanated from the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile.

"For us demon beasts,"

"being subject to humans and enslaved for a lifetime, what difference does it make from death?"

"I admit you are strong, but if you think I'll become your slave, think again."

Generally, demon beasts fear death.

But the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile, possessing a trace of the bloodline of an Ancient Thunder Beast, is extremely proud.

Xiao Yi frowned and said, "I don't need to enslave you for a lifetime."

"Serve me for thirty years."

"Thirty years?" The Ancient Thunder Beast hesitated slightly.

"Still hesitating?" Xiao Yi saw this and shouted coldly.

"Don't think I don't know, you demon beasts live long lives."

"Thirty years, to you, is like the blink of an eye."

"This…" The hesitation on the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile's face deepened.

The next second, seeing Xiao Yi's impatient expression, it quickly agreed.

"I accept your terms."

In its view, since it had already been trapped in this Cave Mansion for a hundred years,

serving humans for another thirty years wasn't much of an issue.

After all, thirty years, to it, was indeed not a long time.

Losing freedom for thirty years versus dying now was an easy choice to make.

"Very well," Xiao Yi nodded, then took out the Beast Taming Ring.

However, the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile immediately became agitated.

"Beast Taming Ring? You want to put the Beast Taming Ring on my head?"

The Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile recognized the Beast Taming Ring at a glance.

"Of course," Xiao Yi said sternly, "If I don't restrain you, what if you regret it after leaving the prohibition?"

"No, that's impossible," the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile roared again.

"If I wear the Beast Taming Ring, my life or death would be at your whim."

"That's absolutely impossible."

Xiao Yi coldly raised his fist.

The terrifying aura of the Boundary Shattering Fist once again made the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile tremble.

"Is there a difference?"

"Your life and death are also at my whim right now."

"You…" The Thunder Crocodile, gnashing its teeth, was excessively reluctant.

It knew it truly had no choice.

"If I wear the Beast Taming Ring now, what if you go back on your word after thirty years?"

Serving Xiao Yi for thirty years wasn't an issue.

The Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile feared that after thirty years, Xiao Yi, leveraging the Beast Taming Ring, would continue to enslave it indefinitely.

Then, it would have no power to resist.

"Still the same words, you have no choice," Xiao Yi said coldly.

"Either you die now."

"Or, you can take a gamble that I will let you go free after thirty years."

Saying this, Xiao Yi sneered.

"Two years ago, I was just a youngster in the Innate Realm."

"In your eyes, hardly better than an ant."

"Yet, two years later, I could kill you."

"I've grown to this point in just two years."

"Do you think I'll still need to enslave you after thirty years?"

Hearing this, the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile pondered for a moment.

Indeed, with Xiao Yi's terrifying growth rate at the moment.

Thirty years later, the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile, in his presence, might just be worthless.

Naturally, Xiao Yi wouldn't need to enslave it any further.

Setting it free wouldn't be an issue.

After a long pause, the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile nodded.

"Human boy, I trust you."

"I hope you won't go back on your word."

With that said, the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile lowered its proud head.

Xiao Yi nodded satisfactorily.

He dissipated the Boundary Shattering Fist that he was about to execute on his fist.

The eight drops of Asura Power inside him also stopped being channeled.

The next second, Xiao Yi's palm hovered in the air.

With a loud bang.

Two flames spontaneously appeared.

A wave of Purple Flame, terrifying in its temperature, as if it could destroy everything.

A wave of Green Flame, eerily extreme, making one shiver from the bottom of their heart.

It was indeed the Purple Crystal Spirit Flame and the Ten Realms Annihilation Fire.

Both flames, under Xiao Yi's control, gradually merged into the Beast Taming Ring.

The Beast Taming Ring, which only had the Prohibition of 'Beast Taming'.

It itself had no power to speak of.

The user needed to input power themselves.

The user's methods and cultivation determined.

What level of demon beast could be imprisoned.

Before long, supported by the True Qi of Xiao Yi's internal Small World 'Ice Mountain Fire Sea,'

a large amount of flames poured into the Beast Taming Ring.

About half an hour later.

The nearby Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile had already been staring in astonishment.

Even swallowing saliva.

"Kid, that's enough, no more,"

"Such immense power could burn me to ashes."

Xiao Yi did not stop until all three thousand three hundred and thirty-three feet of his Qi Spring True Qi had been used up.

Xiao Yi chuckled and placed the Beast Taming Ring around the neck of the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile.

The Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile did not resist.

With a swoosh.

The Beast Taming Ring suddenly disappeared from around the neck of the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile.

It had already entered the body of the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile.

And it firmly locked onto the heart of the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile.

At the same time, inside the Beast Taming Ring, near the Prohibition and the two flames,

there was a trace of Xiao Yi's own aura.

With just a thought, Xiao Yi could trigger this aura.

Then, the aura would activate the Prohibition.

The Purple Crystal Spirit Flame and the Ten Realms Annihilation Fire would instantly ignite.

Burning the most vulnerable heart of the Thunder Crocodile to ashes.

Moreover, Xiao Yi had input so much True Qi into the Beast Taming Ring.

Once it all erupted.

The Purple Flame and the Ten Realms Annihilation Fire would reach a terrifying level.

By then, not just the heart but the entire Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile would be burnt to ashes.

Of course, as long as the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile didn't resist, none of this would happen.

"Kid..." the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile was about to say something.

But before it could finish, the Beast Taming Ring inside its body had already painfully clamped around its heart.

This had nothing to do with Xiao Yi.

It was entirely the self-triggering of the Beast Taming Ring's Prohibition.

Daring to defy its master, the Beast Taming Ring would automatically torture the demon beast.

Countless years ago, the humans of the Demon Hunting Hall, who were Martial Arts Supremes,

created the Beast Taming Ring to control demon beasts and turn them against their own kind.

Therefore, demon beasts must obey unconditionally.

Otherwise, if during a major battle these demon beasts suddenly turned traitors,

or if they rampaged and killed wildly on human territories,

humans would suffer massive casualties.

Naturally, the Prohibition was very strict.

"Master," the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile bit its teeth and called out stiffly.

Xiao Yi shrugged, saying, "What you call me doesn't matter to me."

"But the Beast Taming Ring naturally has these Prohibitions, and I can't do anything about it."

The Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile understood this and did not say much more.

Of course, it now neither had the position nor the right to blame Xiao Yi.

"Master, I just want to ask, is your control over the flames really reliable?"

The Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile was incredibly anxious.

"Just now, such a large amount of flame was funneled into the Beast Taming Ring."

"What if you hadn't controlled it properly and it had spilled out?"

"I feel both those flames are no good, very terrifying."

"If they were to burn inside me, they could definitely burn a hole through my stomach."

Xiao Yi laughed and confidently said, "I can't guarantee anything else, but regarding Fire Control, I'm confident."

"You can rest assured."

"That's good," the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile breathed a sigh of relief.

"But, master, you haven't told me yet, what exactly do you want me to do?"

"Is it to kill someone?"

Saying this, the Heavenly Star Thunder Crocodile's face turned fierce.

"No need to kill anyone, nor do you need to do anything," Xiao Yi responded lightly.

"Just protect my family for 30 years."

"After that time, I will set you free."
