Chapter 579: Communicating with the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf

When the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf heard the youth before him cheerfully utter these words, the ferocity in its beast pupils suddenly surged to its absolute peak, that dense killing intent nearly materializing as it burst forth.

It could never forget.

That day it had been peacefully staying in the mountains, only to be lured out by this detestable human brat, and not only did it first have to fight a bizarre battle against a powerful aberration, but in the end it also drew out that human king-tier powerhouse who had once made it feel boundless terror.

In the end, it had just escaped one cage, only to be sealed away again in the blink of an eye into this lightless, boundless space.

And all of this was brought about by this human brat before it!

Boom!

In that instant, it seemed as though incomparably terrifying blood-red energy erupted from within the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's body, then its massive frame lunged forward, its sharp, razor claws tearing through the void, slashing straight down at Li Luo.

It would tear this brat into ten thousand pieces!

Clank-clank-clank!

Just as its claws were about to slash toward Li Luo, suddenly the sound of chains rang out from the darkness. The next moment, chains imbued with mysterious power bloomed with light within the darkness; one end of the chains pierced through the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's body, and then the chains trembled, instantly yanking the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's massive frame backward.

An inexplicable pressure emanated from the chains, pressing down on the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's body like mountains, pinning it utterly motionless.

Roar!

No matter how furiously the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf struggled, it could not shake those mysterious chains in the slightest.

Because what flowed through those chains was the legendary "Tri-Phase Power."

That was the power belonging to a King Realm powerhouse, far beyond what it, a fierce beast that had yet to break through to the Marquis Realm, could resist.

Hoo.

Seeing this, Li Luo quietly let out a sigh of relief, then wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Dean Pang really is reliable— this seal is exceptionally secure; otherwise, the him right now would probably have been swallowed alive and torn apart by this Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf on the spot.

"Wolf Bro, don't be so angry. Can we have a calm and peaceful chat?" Li Luo revealed a gentle smile.

Yet what answered him was the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's furious roar, as foul-smelling drool sprayed from its bloody maw, splattering all over his face.

But Li Luo, letting the spit dry on its own, still maintained his smile and said: "Wolf Bro, you don't need to thank me for bringing you out of that lightless, boundless dark cave. This shows that the two of us are fated. If you don't mind, we could become sworn brothers. However, little brother here is currently facing a life-and-death crisis, and I still need Wolf Bro to lend me your strength for a bit."

yawenku.

"You don't know, there's a half-human, half-ghost monster outside, arrogant and domineering, not taking Wolf Bro seriously at all."

The Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's furious emotions gradually subsided. Its savage pupils stared at Li Luo, then it suddenly extended a sharp claw and pointed at the chains binding it, its meaning seemingly that it wanted Li Luo to undo the chain seal so it could go help him deal with the trouble.

Seeing this, Li Luo gave a dry laugh and said: "Wolf Bro, saying things like that shows no sincerity. If I undo the chains, you'll probably swallow me first thing."

Li Luo patted his own chest toward the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf and said: "Wolf Bro, don't resist me so much. Although right now I'm just a tiny Phase Master Realm cultivator, given time, I might even reach the Marquis Realm before you. At that time, your brother here won't forget you—I will definitely find a way to help you take that step too!"

Yet in response to his bragging, the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf disdainfully gave no reply.

"If you don't believe me, I can make a heart oath with you: if within four years I don't reach the Marquis Realm, may I be struck by heavenly thunder and make no further progress in cultivation ever again." Li Luo said seriously.

Because he only had four years of lifespan left. If he couldn't reach the Marquis Realm within these four years, his lifespan would naturally reach its end. By then, the man would already be gone, so whether thunder struck or not, whether cultivation progressed or not, it wouldn't really matter anymore.

Seeing Li Luo looking so earnest and brimming with confidence, the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf actually felt a bit suspicious in its heart. Where did this human brat get such confidence? To actually fantasize about breaking through to the Marquis Realm within four years?

One must know that the Marquis Realm is the most important threshold between cultivation stages. Reaching it requires not only extraordinary talent, but also extremely vast cultivation resources and many fortuitous encounters, and once one steps into it, it is a heaven-and-earth-transforming change.

A Marquis powerhouse, no matter where, would absolutely count as a regional overlord.

This brat— what gives him the right to be so arrogant?

But on second thought, the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf snorted coldly again. Whether this brat could break through to the Marquis Realm within four years had nothing to do with it anyway.

Li Luo, seeing the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's utterly unmovable attitude, also felt a bit helpless. He could tell the other party truly held deep hatred toward him, but Li Luo could understand this—after all, it was he who had lured the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf out of the mountains back then.

(continuation of previous line)

He had originally planned to ease the relationship between them as much as possible, which would benefit his later borrowing of the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's power. But clearly, he had been a bit naive. With the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's strength comparable to the peak of the Da Tian Xiang Jing, it simply looked down on him, a tiny Phase Master Realm cultivator.

Once his strength improved in the future, perhaps the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf's attitude would become much more proper.

Thinking this in his heart, Li Luo stopped wasting words. His expression grew solemn as he looked at the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf and said: "Wolf Bro, whether you agree or not, today I must borrow your strength."

As his words fell, he tapped his ten fingertips together, and immediately fresh blood flowed from his fingertips. His hands rapidly formed seals, and as phase power surged it merged with the fresh blood, gradually forming a mysterious blood-red curse inscription.

"Tian Ji Zhou!"

The blood-red curse inscription drifted out, heading straight for the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf.

The Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf did not resist, because with the seal in place, it had no power to resist at all. So its crimson beast pupils simply stared at Li Luo with icy coldness, while deep within its pupils, a trace of cruelty and mockery flashed past.

Want to borrow its power, huh... does it really think its power is something a tiny Phase Master Realm cultivator can command at will?

Fine, you want to use it, then take it!

It was actually afraid Li Luo wouldn't use it!

It could sense how strong the enemy Li Luo had encountered outside was—that should be strength equivalent to the early stage of the Da Tian Xiang Jing. To defeat such a powerful enemy, Li Luo borrowing just a little power wouldn't be enough.

And the more of its power Li Luo borrowed, the more violently that baleful erosion would corrode Li Luo's mind, until in the end it drowned his consciousness, turning him into a "wolf slave" who knew only mindless slaughter.

When that time came, it could easily control Li Luo's consciousness and turn him into its own puppet.

With these thoughts flashing through its mind, the Three-Tailed Heavenly Wolf gave a cold smile. Its crimson beast pupils slowly closed, allowing the "Tian Ji Zhou" that had fallen upon its forehead to begin drawing out the power within its body.

Whoooosh!

Vast blood-red energy roared out like a flood, finally pouring entirely into Li Luo's body before it.

Under the infusion of this energy saturated with baleful aura, blood veins also suddenly crawled into Li Luo's pupils.

The power around his body surged forth like a tsunami.
