Soul Land:The Dragon King's God of Nature

Chapter 130: Chapter 130: Submission!



"Chirp—"

A clear phoenix cry echoed as a golden-red figure descended from the sky, gracefully transforming. In a flash, the magnificent phoenix became a valiant, beautiful woman.

"Teacher!" Jing Shaoyu immediately stepped forward with Anya, his expression brimming with excitement and anticipation as he called out.

"It's done." Leng Yaozhu casually clapped her hands, her tone nonchalant.

Behind Leng Yaozhu lay the subdued Nightmare Demon Eye Beast. The once-proud and formidable creature was now a shadow of her former self. Her limbs were bound by golden-red flames, her black wings similarly restrained. Golden flames flickered on her forehead, neck, abdomen, and spine—Leng Yaozhu's handiwork. The bindings rendered the fierce beast utterly powerless, no different from a common animal.

"Sister, stop being so stubborn!" Anya hurried to the Nightmare Demon Eye Beast, lowering her head as she tried to persuade her. "Our master is right here. Come and pledge your allegiance!"

"Hmph!" Even in captivity, the Nightmare Demon Eye Beast retained her pride. With a cold snort, she retorted, "I've never heard of this so-called Lord of Nature! It's nothing but a fairy tale to fool the naive, and only a fool like you, Ankashia, would believe it!"

"Why are you so obstinate, sister?!" Anya said anxiously. "Don't deceive yourself any longer. Must you truly die before you regret it? You're already captured. If you refuse to become our master's spirit soul, you'll face certain death!"

At the mention of death, a trace of fear flashed through the Nightmare Demon Eye Beast's eyes. She hesitated before muttering, "Hmph! And becoming a so-called spirit soul would mean I won't die?"

"That depends on whether you choose to die now or later," Leng Yaozhu interjected with a faintly mocking tone. Her words, sharp and scornful, immediately reignited the Nightmare Demon Eye Beast's defiance.

"If it means becoming a slave to humans, I'd rather die here and now!" she spat coldly, though her anger was futile given her current state.

"Sister, I've already told you—our master is no ordinary human but the newly born Lord of Nature!" Anya pleaded, growing more desperate. "I refuse to believe that this isn't part of your inherited memories!"

Caught off guard, the Nightmare Demon Eye Beast's expression turned awkward for a moment. After a brief silence, she asked, "How can I be sure that this person is truly one of us? Remember, I am not like you."

Hearing her sister's words, Anya's heart lightened. Smiling with relief, she said, "Of course, you can be sure! I can distinguish between the Lord of Nature and the Child of Nature."

Jing Shaoyu stepped forward decisively. "Nightmare Demon Eye Beast, if I can prove to you that I am the Lord of Nature, will you become my spirit soul?"

The Nightmare Demon Eye Beast lifted her gaze to Jing Shaoyu. Her pupils dilated slightly, reflecting her inner shock and surprise. After a moment, she murmured, "Yes… I can."

Inside, her emotions were in turmoil. The moment she saw Jing Shaoyu, she felt a tremor in her very core, a resonance with the power of calamity from heaven and earth. The sheer improbability of such a phenomenon left her nearly convinced that Anya wasn't lying. This human boy truly seemed to be the incarnation of calamity!

"Then watch closely!" Jing Shaoyu declared. Without hesitation, he raised his hand, summoning the End Godslayer Spear. The pitch-black weapon appeared in his grasp, emanating a faint yet stable aura of destruction as he channeled his spirit power into it.

The Nightmare Demon Eye Beast's eyes widened in shock. The seal on her forehead cracked open, revealing her eerie magic eye. The eye emitted a dim purple light as her body began to tremble uncontrollably. At first, the trembling was slight, confined to her limbs and head. But soon, it spread across her entire body, her fur standing on end unnaturally.

"It's true… He's truly the Child of Calamity! The Incarnation of Disaster!" she murmured in awe. Her gaze turned reverent as she struggled to bow her head. Despite her restraints, she bent low before Jing Shaoyu and humbly declared, "Nightmare Demon Eye Beast, Perseia Sanctum Nox, bows before the supreme Lord of Nature!"

The Nightmare Demon Eye Beast had submitted. She lowered her head to Jing Shaoyu's feet, performing an act of reverence so sincere and humble that it was hard to believe she was once a proud fierce beast.

Leng Yaozhu watched the scene unfold, her eyes filled with both delight and astonishment. The submission of the Nightmare Demon Eye Beast meant her disciple would gain an orange spirit soul and possibly a fierce beast-level soul bone. This would undoubtedly elevate Jing Shaoyu's already extraordinary talent, making him a peerless figure among his generation—a legacy reminiscent of Yun Ming in his youth.

Her astonishment, however, stemmed from Jing Shaoyu's mysterious martial spirit and origins. She had overheard the unicorns' conversation, their mentions of titles like "Child of Nature," "Child of Calamity," and "Lord of Nature." Though unfamiliar with these terms, she instinctively understood their significance. That Jing Shaoyu could secure the allegiance of a fierce beast with just his identity was nothing short of astounding.

Still, her joy outweighed her surprise. No matter what titles Jing Shaoyu bore, to her, he was first and foremost the disciple of Celestial Phoenix Douluo, Leng Yaozhu.

"Well done!" Jing Shaoyu said, his eyes gleaming with satisfaction. "It seems I won't need to do much more."

"Wonderful, sister!" Anya exclaimed excitedly. She hurried to the Nightmare Demon Eye Beast's side, affectionately nuzzling her to express her joy.

"Oh, you've come around. That's great news." Leng Yaozhu's face softened into a gentle smile. "Now, are you willing to become my disciple's spirit soul?"

The Nightmare Demon Eye Beast glanced at Jing Shaoyu, then at Leng Yaozhu and Anya, before her gaze returned to Jing Shaoyu. A trace of resignation flickered in her eyes as she said, "I am willing to become the spirit soul of the Lord of Nature. However, it seems that in your current state, you are incapable of bearing my spirit ring, correct?"

Jing Shaoyu felt a wave of frustration wash over him. She was right—he wasn't physically or mentally prepared to contract with a fierce beast-level spirit soul. If he forced the contract, his body and soul would likely collapse under the strain.

This was a significant obstacle. While they had achieved the Nightmare Demon Eye Beast's submission, securing the spirit soul without delay was critical to avoid potential complications down the line. Contracting an orange spirit soul required extraordinary physical and mental resilience. Spirit Masters needed at least 10,000 points of spiritual power to stabilize such a bond.

Currently, Jing Shaoyu's spiritual power was only at the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm, at 4,099 points—a far cry from the 5,000-point Spirit Abyss Realm required.

"Teacher…" Jing Shaoyu turned to Leng Yaozhu, seeking her guidance.

Before Leng Yaozhu could respond, the Nightmare Demon Eye Beast interjected. "If no other method exists, I can offer myself as a sacrifice. All I ask is that you, Lord, reach the pinnacle of power and never forget me."

Her words struck a chord of frustration in Jing Shaoyu. Anya, too, appeared anxious, eager to protest.

"No, I won't allow a sacrifice!" Leng Yaozhu suddenly declared, her tone firm and resolute. "A sacrifice is wasteful—it would only provide a single spirit ring, while a spirit soul can grant multiple rings. I refuse to permit it."

"Then, Teacher, do you have a solution?" Jing Shaoyu asked, catching on

to her confident tone.

"Of course!" Leng Yaozhu replied with a nod.
