Chapter 267: Enslaving Black Crow, A Clash of Souls

The flock of crows on the ground struggled frantically, yet it was to no avail.

Chen Fan and the other three slaughtered them wantonly; in a moment's time, only one crow remained alive.

Black Crow could no longer maintain his Otherworldly Ability and reverted to his human form, but he was severely injured and extremely weak at this moment.

"You all wait here, I will interrogate him alone!"

After Chen Fan finished speaking, he grabbed Black Crow by the neck and hauled him back into the room.

He stared at Black Crow, his voice like a cold abyss of hell: "I have some things to ask you. If you cooperate, I can let you die more quickly."

Black Crow gave a miserable laugh and said: "Don't waste your effort, I won't say anything. Once one has entered the Beast Worship Cult, one is forbidden from betraying it for life!"

Chen Fan sneered. He had chatted with Cat Girl before; after consuming the Beast God Pill, one would establish a connection of the Soul with the so-called 'Beast God'.

From then on, one's actions would be monitored, and once one did or said something detrimental to the Beast Worship Cult, the 'Beast God' would be able to sense it and thereby inflict Soul punishment.

Cat Girl might be the only person in the Beast Worship Cult capable of evading the 'Beast God's' surveillance.

Her Otherworldly Ability is the Nine Lives Phantom God; there are 9 life souls existing in her Sea of Consciousness, which can influence the 'Beast God's' judgment.

Of course, even knowing this, Chen Fan still captured him; he had his own plans.

He took out the Oath Scroll.

The Oath Scroll can enslave three people; he had used it twice before, and now only one last opportunity remained.

He wanted to enslave Black Crow; he wanted to test whether the so-called 'Beast God's' surveillance would still be effective under the influence of the Oath Scroll!

Chen Fan pressed the Oath Scroll in front of Black Crow, pointed a finger at his chest, extracted a drop of his heart blood, and forcibly dripped it into the Oath Scroll.

"Next, whatever I say, you say. If you miss a single word, I will stab you ten times."

Black Crow looked at Chen Fan, not understanding what he wanted to do.

Chen Fan said indifferently: "Heaven and Earth as witness, Sun and Moon as proof, I, Black Crow, am willing to be loyal to you, to follow you in life and death, and will never betray you!"

Black Crow did not care; he did not think there would be any consequences for saying these words.

He said weakly: "Heaven and Earth as witness, Sun and Moon as proof, I, Black Crow, am willing to be loyal to you, to follow you in life and death, and will never betray you!"

The next moment, a wisp of a life soul flew out from Black Crow's Sea of Consciousness and fell into Chen Fan's Sea of Consciousness.

At this time, in Chen Fan's Sea of Consciousness, there was one more energy body, which was precisely a miniature version of Black Crow.

Chen Fan asked indifferently: "Now, tell me everything about Zhuang Mian, including his Otherworldly Ability, weaknesses, and so on!"

The moment Black Crow hesitated, Chen Fan grabbed his life soul!

Black Crow immediately felt the threat of death and gasped for air.

"Master, spare my life!" he begged loudly.

Chen Fan still did not let go and continued to ravage his life soul.

Black Crow immediately felt endless pain; he rolled frantically on the ground, letting out miserable screams from his mouth.

Outside the room, Zhan Le and the other two could not help but feel their hair stand on end.

Only after a full five minutes did Chen Fan release his life soul.

Black Crow gasped for air, his sweat having long since soaked his entire body.

He was completely terrified! This kind of torture was even more painful than the 'Beast God's' punishment.

"Master, I will speak!" he said slowly: "Zhuang Mian's rank is Grandmaster Early Stage, his Otherworldly Ability is..."

Before he could finish, he suddenly clutched his head and wailed.

Chen Fan was greatly alarmed; he closed his eyes to observe Black Crow's life soul.

Through this life soul of Black Crow, Chen Fan's Soul projected into Black Crow's Sea of Consciousness.

He saw Black Crow's Soul being wrapped by a streak of blood-colored Thunder, and this blood-colored Thunder was wearing away Black Crow's Soul.

Chen Fan could not help but be surprised; could this be the punishment inflicted by the 'Beast God'?

Seeing that Black Crow's Soul was about to be extinguished, Chen Fan acted decisively.

The Supreme Thunder-Devouring Dao Body was activated, and the blood-colored Thunder in the air instantly dissipated.

Before Black Crow could even catch his breath, the blood-colored Thunder appeared again.

Just like that, in Black Crow's Sea of Consciousness, Chen Fan engaged in a tug-of-war with the so-called 'Beast God'!

A few minutes later, a black human figure projected into Black Crow's Sea of Consciousness.

Chen Fan immediately felt endless pressure coming upon his Soul.

"Could this be the Beast God?!" Chen Fan's heart was stirred with monstrous waves.

"The Beast God is not a Strange Beast, but a person?" Chen Fan tried hard to see the person's face clearly, but he could not make it out at all.

"You deserve to die!" His voice was incomparably cold.

With a point of his finger, terrifying energy shot out, and Black Crow's Soul instantly collapsed.

At the same time, Black Crow's Sea of Consciousness began to collapse.

Chen Fan did not dare to hesitate for a second and instantly left that place.

At this moment, the black shadow that appeared in Black Crow's Sea of Consciousness glanced at Chen Fan indifferently and vanished in the blink of an eye.

Chen Fan opened his eyes, looked at Black Crow, who had already lost all signs of life, and sighed to himself.

"Just a hair's breadth away, and Black Crow would have revealed Zhuang Mian's Otherworldly Ability."

Only by knowing oneself and the enemy can one win every battle; if he had known Zhuang Mian's Otherworldly Ability in advance, he could have thought of countermeasures ahead of time.

Just as he was disappointed, Chen Fan discovered that Black Crow's life soul was still safe and sound in his Sea of Consciousness.

"This... what is going on?" Chen Fan was baffled for a moment.

At this time, the originally shattered Black Crow Soul began to slowly condense, and a few minutes later, a brand-new Black Crow Soul was born.

At the same time, Black Crow suddenly opened his eyes.

Chen Fan watched this scene and was nearly scared to death.

"Could it be that as long as the life soul does not perish, my servant will not die?"

But Chen Fan quickly dismissed this thought; it was simply too preposterous.

He asked the black crow, "How did you come back to life?"

The black crow looked at Chen Fan, its eyes filled with extreme respect: "Master, this has to do with my Otherworldly Ability."

"Oh?" Chen Fan was puzzled.

The black crow said, "Master, my Otherworldly Ability is Undead Gray Crow, which allows me to transform into thousands of crows; as long as one crow survives, I can resurrect on the spot."

"By the same logic, my Soul is the same; as long as a wisp of my Soul survives, my Soul can recover. Since Master's Sea of Consciousness preserves a wisp of my life soul, my Soul can therefore recover."

"So that's how it is!" Chen Fan understood.

His eyes then lit up: "Then have you broken free from the control of the Beast God Pill?"

The black crow nodded and said earnestly, "I should have broken free; I can no longer feel the will of the 'Beast God'."

"Very good!" A plan suddenly formed in Chen Fan's mind.

He couldn't help but smile: "Tell me about Zhuang Mian's Otherworldly Ability first."

"Very well, Master!" The black crow nodded and said, "Zhuang Mian's Otherworldly Ability is very special; it is called Mask Thousand Faces."

"Mask Thousand Faces?" Chen Fan murmured; this was the first time he had heard of this Otherworldly Ability.
