Chapter 128: Conditions, Threats, and Sacrifice

Hearing Nan Feihuang's words, the Titan Giant Ape was stunned. Did this person actually mean he wanted its Spirit Ring and soul bone?

"Haha, human, you are too foolish. How could my Spirit Ring be something you can covet? Just by relying on your strength of less than four rings?" the Titan Giant Ape said, its words full of mockery.

A Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring, even for a Spirit Master with a top-tier Beast Spirit and an astonishing physique, generally only has a hope of being absorbed starting from the last two Spirit Rings.

Even with a Sacrifice, it is absolutely impossible for someone with four rings to withstand it, unless it is the most overbearing type of Sacrifice—that is, sacrificing the soul along with it, the kind of method Xiao Wu used to sacrifice to Tang San.

But this method of Sacrifice would cause the Spirit Beast itself to nearly have its soul scattered.

No matter how much the Titan Giant Ape loves Xiao Wu, it would not use this method of Sacrifice to offer its own Spirit Ring to an enemy.

Nan Feihuang smiled, "You don't need to worry about that. Titan Giant Ape, if you want Xiao Wu to live, then Sacrifice to me. You don't need to use the soul-sacrificing method; the ordinary way will suffice. I promise that when I become a god in the future, I will surely resurrect you as my companion divine beast."

"How could becoming a god be so easy? Furthermore, why should I trust that you will resurrect me in the future? Thirdly, the temptation of a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring and soul bone to a Spirit Master is immense. Even if I Sacrifice to you, how do I know you won't kill Sister Xiao Wu later?" The Titan Giant Ape was anxious in its heart, yet it was not without reason. It thought about many things; in fact, it was not entirely unmoved, otherwise, it wouldn't have asked these three questions in succession.

Now it was controlled by the Eight Gates Golden Lock. With the power of that Red Hare, killing it by force was not difficult. That human Spirit Master seemed able to borrow the power of that Horse to fight, and supplemented by a special Attack mode that ignores defense, he could absolutely pierce and explode its skull.

At that time, the Spirit Ring that would be blasted out, even if Nan Feihuang couldn't absorb it now and didn't dare to risk absorbing it by force, he could at least obtain a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Bone.

No, it would be two, plus the one belonging to its Sister Xiao Wu.

The quality of Twin Spirits must be similar; since that Halberd is so powerful, this book, generally speaking, would absolutely not be inferior.

"How about it? This is a Dual God-Level Spirits. Is my talent enough to satisfy you? Also, if you are willing to Sacrifice to me, then it is equivalent to me having already reserved a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring and soul bone plus a million-year Spirit Ring and soul bone. Is this foundation for becoming a god sufficient?"

This question from Nan Feihuang left the Titan Giant Ape silent; this was the best answer to its questions.

The Titan Giant Ape opened its ape eyes wide. This person not only possessed that super powerful long halberd martial soul, but was actually a user of Twin Spirits.

"It seems you aren't as Han Han as I thought. Very well, then I will answer these three questions for you." As Nan Feihuang spoke, he retracted the Heavenly Painted Halberd in his hand and switched to the Dunjia Heavenly Book martial soul.

The Dual God-Level Spirits were already terrifying enough; if they were really equipped with ten-thousand-year and million-year Spirit Rings, it dared not imagine the power. Becoming a god is very difficult for ordinary people, but for this guy, is it really difficult?

Its eyes turned to the Red Hare beneath Nan Feihuang, seemingly wanting to confirm something. Seeing this, the Red Hare said, "No need to look at me with such probing eyes. In the future, I will surely Sacrifice myself completely to my master."

Having received confirmation, the Titan Giant Ape said no more. Nan Feihuang had answered this first question.

"It seems you don't have much objection to whether I can become a god. Then for the second question, there is actually no need for much doubt. As long as I become a god, what threat do you pose to me? A companion divine beast is equivalent to a part of the master and cannot resist me. Why wouldn't I want an extra obedient fighter?" Nan Feihuang answered this question in the form of a rhetorical question.

The Titan Giant Ape had intelligence, but it was clearly not high. It was stunned for a moment. That's right, this matter posed no threat to Nan Feihuang, and it wasn't troublesome. Having an extra fighter that couldn't resist him had a hundred benefits and no harm. On this point, why would he lie to it?

"As for the last question, I truly cannot prove it, and I can only give you a Spirit Vow as a promise. Whether you believe it or not, I have no way to help, but don't overlook one point: right now, I am the butcher and you are the fish. If you choose to believe, there is still hope that only you will die. But if you don't believe, then I can only kill both you and Xiao Wu. If I don't get a Spirit Ring and a soul bone, getting two Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Bones isn't bad either." Nan Feihuang shrugged, looking as if he didn't care that much.

The Titan Giant Ape was speechless, because what Nan Feihuang said was a fact. If it chose to believe, then Xiao Wu still had a glimmer of hope to live. If it didn't believe, then it and Xiao Wu would die together.

Simple and clear!

"Human, you win. As long as you make the Spirit Vow, I will believe you this once," the Titan Giant Ape said in a deep voice.

Although a Spirit Vow is not necessarily guaranteed to be fulfilled, it is still a form of restraint.

"Very well. I swear by my martial soul: if you, Titan Giant Ape, Sacrifice to me, I will surely spare Xiao Wu's life and will never harm her without cause in the future. Otherwise, may my Twin Spirits shatter and I die. Is that acceptable, Titan Giant Ape? Of course, there is a prerequisite I must make clear: the premise for this vow to be valid is that she must not overestimate herself and come looking for trouble with me again, and she must not harm me for the sake of her so-called Third Brother. Otherwise, the vow is void. I, Nan Feihuang, am absolutely not someone who lets others slaughter me and doesn't fight back when struck."

Nan Feihuang disdained deception. Xiao Wu's Soft Bone Rabbit was not a particularly powerful type of Spirit Beast; in any case, it was far inferior to the Titan Giant Ape. He didn't mind not having it, but if she delivered herself to his door, then don't blame Nan Feihuang for being heartless.

The Titan Giant Ape nodded, "I understand. I have one more condition. If you agree, I will Sacrifice immediately."

"Speak!"

"If today's events are learned of by Xiao Wu or my big brother in the future, they will inevitably come to seek revenge on you for my sake. Therefore, I want to beg you for one chance to spare their lives. In the future, let them off once, just once will do!" The Titan Giant Ape pleaded; it was terrified that the Azure Bull Python would also come to throw its life away.

This Red Hare was too terrifying; even if it and its big brother attacked together, they could not possibly be its match.

Therefore, it only hoped to beg for one chance to spare the Azure Bull Python and Xiao Wu. Once they witnessed the power of Nan Feihuang and the Red Hare for the first time, even if they had hatred, they should be able to suppress it.

That would be enough!

"Fine, once, just once! When they come to seek revenge on me for the first time, even if they are defeated by me, I will spare them. But if there is a second time, I will gladly accept their Spirit Rings and soul bones." Nan Feihuang agreed to the Titan Giant Ape's condition again.

Because from the Titan Giant Ape's perspective, this condition was not an excessive demand. The reason it agreed to Sacrifice at this moment was to ensure its Sister Xiao Wu's survival; naturally, it did not want the Azure Bull Python and Xiao Wu to lose their lives because of this matter in the future.

Otherwise, what would be the point of its Sacrifice?

"Good, then human, undo the restraint on me!" the Titan Giant Ape said.

Nan Feihuang undid the Eight Gates Golden Lock. The Titan Giant Ape did not go back on its word. A scarlet radiance erupted from its body, enveloping itself and Nan Feihuang.

The Sacrificial Array was opened!
