Tianhai Fairy Journey

Chapter 1569 Submission
Within the Heavenly Wheel Realm.

A pair of large, sharp claws completely tore apart the outer layers of the dark, patterned barrier.

"This damned human cultivator is strange; I am no match for him!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Lie Jiutian spread his wings again and escaped from the Heavenly Wheel Realm's imprisonment through the crack.

"How is this possible? I am a descendant of a sacred beast, yet I am unable to contend with it?"

In the hazy gray sky, a colossal crimson bird soared into the air, accelerating its escape. Its massive claws tore through space, and its crimson demonic body seemed to wander in the depths of space before vanishing from its original spot in an instant.

"I once witnessed a human expert at the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage making a move; this person's power was in no way inferior to that human expert."

While Lie Jiutian was still in shock.

Its recently rebuilt lair has reappeared in its sights.

"Damn human cultivators!"

"My newly built lair must now be abandoned. I can only wait for my bloodline to revive before returning to challenge it."

Seeing that the person behind him did not immediately chase after him, Lie Jiutian suddenly felt a sense of smugness.

"I am naturally proficient in the Dao of Space. Besides strength, speed is also my race's most skilled technique. How could mere human cultivators compare to me?"

the other side.

Li Qing waved his hand lightly, and the Heavenly Wheel Realm immediately dissipated, while the Heavenly Water Dao Disc and the two natal Dharma Wheels flew backward.

Watching the Sky-Splitter Sparrow speed away in the distance, Li Qing smiled slightly.

In fact, he had already sensed that the Sky Sparrow wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but he did not stop it.

If we want to subdue it, we must completely suppress its arrogance.

"In terms of speed, you probably have even less of a chance!"

call!call!
A vast and ancient aura was revealed between heaven and earth, and streams of Kunpeng power flowed out.

As a phantom image of a strange blue fish with wings on its back suddenly leaped up, Li Qing soared into the sky.

Deep in the sea, where a gray, volcanic mountain fire rises.

A massive crimson phantom vanished in an instant.

"Could it be that this person has already given up?"

Seeing that there was still no movement from behind, Lie Jiutian couldn't help but think to himself.

"Indeed, that damned human cultivator must know he can't catch up with me, yet he still wants me to be his mount. What wishful thinking."

Just as it was about to slow down, the previously stable space in front of it suddenly twisted, and a blue wing tore out from the depths of space. Then, the young figure in the green robe that it was so familiar with reappeared.

"That is?"

Lie Jiutian's demonic eyes widened instantly, his heart filled with disbelief.

Compared to the ability to shatter space in an instant, what truly amazed it was the ancient and vast pressure emanating from the human cultivator, a pressure that made even its soul tremble.

"Isn't he a human being?"

But when he saw the young cultivator in the green robe smile again, Lie Jiutian could no longer think about these things.

Whoosh!
A silver feather instantly pierced his head.

Ancient silver patterns instantly intertwined, resembling a spatial passage. Lie Jiutian transformed into a phantom and disappeared at the end of the silver pattern passage. The silver feather seemed to carry some kind of ancient spatial demonic power. Under its blessing, the space in the area through which Lie Jiutian passed completely melted away, leaving no obstacle whatsoever.

But before it could even breathe a sigh of relief, the familiar green-robed cultivator broke through the air once more and appeared beside it.
The other party also had a pair of pale blue wings extending from its back, and its vast and ancient pressure made it look more like an ancient demon than Lie Jiutian himself.

"I'd like to see how long you can hold out!"

Lie Jiutian roared in exasperation, and the silver feathers on his head instantly turned blood red, then vanished in an instant as a blood-red afterimage.

However, during its escape, the illusory figure in the green robe was like a nightmare to it. No matter how fast it tried to escape, it could not shake off the opponent. Moreover, with the support of the pair of light blue wings, the human cultivator seemed to be able to roam freely in the depths of space and could appear anywhere at any time.

"Do you still want to escape?"

The space in front of the Nine Heavens shattered once more, and a young figure in a green robe stepped out into the air.

"What exactly do you want in order to let me leave?"

Faced with absolute overwhelming strength, Lie Jiutian's pride vanished completely. Whether in terms of strength or speed, his opponent was utterly crushing him.

"As I said before, become my mount, or die!" Li Qing said calmly.
"impossible!"

The Sky-Splitter said arrogantly, "I am a descendant of a noble sacred beast, how could I be your mount?"

"So you're choosing to die?"

A cold indifference appeared on Li Qing's calm face.

Seeing this, the Sky-Splitter felt a chill run down its spine. Those cold eyes made it feel a real sense of impending death for the first time.

"no no!"

Lie Jiutian shook his head repeatedly: "I am the future supreme expert of the Lietian Sparrow clan, how can I perish here?"

"Otherwise, you can let me leave, and when my bloodline is revived and I become the strongest in this world, I can grant you one request?"

"One condition?"

Li Qing couldn't help but smile and shake his head.

"If one condition isn't enough, how about three?" Lie Jiutian quickly replied.

"You should know that I possess the noble bloodline of a sacred beast, and my future potential is unimaginable. I can definitely help you."

"Become a mount or die!"

Li Qing said calmly again.

call!call!
The Kunpeng slowly spread its wings, and an even more vast and boundless ancient pressure descended, firmly enveloping the Nine Heavens.

"I will not be threatened by you!"

At this moment, the Sky-Splitting Sparrow suddenly changed its previous submissive stance and raised its proud head once more: "I am a descendant of a sacred beast, the future strongest of the Sky-Splitting Sparrow clan. How can I be a human's mount?"

"If I were to return to the Spirit Realm in the future, how would I have the face to return to my clan!"

"Return to the spirit world?"

Suddenly, a strange light appeared in Li Qing's eyes: "Do you know when the seal on this world will be broken?"

If compared to the lifespan of humans, this Sky-Splitting Sparrow is considered to be in its infancy. When it first appeared in the world, it must have been not long after it was born.

Logically speaking, since the other party did not come from a powerful demon clan, it is unlikely that they would know such a secret of heaven and earth.

"What's so difficult about that!" Lie Jiutian said proudly, "What I have awakened is not just my bloodline, but the inheritance of my race's memories. My birth means that this prison of heaven and earth is about to be dissolved."

"If it weren't for the suppression and weakening effect of the rules of heaven and earth, I wouldn't have been able to successfully be born!"

"You possess memory information from outside the realm?"

"Of course, although some of the bloodline memories have not yet been revived, they will eventually surface!"

Upon hearing this, a profound meaning appeared in Li Qing's eyes.

Unexpectedly, he underestimated this descendant of the Sky-Splitting Sparrow. The other party actually possessed bloodline memories, which is not something that can be left behind by ordinary racial bloodline inheritance.

Normally, the ability to revive a bloodline is already extremely rare.

"Could it be that this demon also has an extraordinary background?"

As if he had thought of something, Li Qing slowly said, "You pride yourself on your noble bloodline, so why did you still fall into my hands?"

"That's because my bloodline is too powerful and is severely suppressed by the rules of heaven and earth, so it cannot be fully restored!"

Lie Jiutian retorted defiantly, "Otherwise, how could a mere human cultivator like you possibly defeat me? When will your bloodline revive again?"

"when?"

Lie Jiutian fell silent.

How does it know when the bloodline will be revived?

"Since you're so confident, how about we make a bet?"

"How would you like to wager with me?"

A hint of wariness appeared in the eyes of the Nine Heavens Demon.

Memories from the depths of its bloodline warned it that humans are masters of scheming.

"You will continue to be my mount, but I'm willing to give you a chance!"

Li Qing said calmly, "Once your bloodline is revived, you can challenge me. If you win, I will lift your restrictions and grant you your freedom. If you continue to fail, then there's nothing more to say!"

"Even if I advance again ahead of schedule, I can suppress my cultivation level and fight you at the same realm to ensure the fairness of this agreement."

"Then wouldn't that mean I would have to be enslaved by you before that?" Lie Jiutian said with dissatisfaction.

"Of course, you can also choose death!"

Li Qing gazed intently at the descendant of the Sky-Splitting Sparrow before him.

He was willing to spend more time talking because he saw the other party's potential.

As for the outcome of the bet, it was already predetermined.

"Become a mount, or die!"

call!call!
The phantom of the Kunpeng's wings slowly lit up again, strands of light piercing through space, exuding an undeniable killing intent.

"Am I really to become this person's mount?"

Lie Jiutian was caught in a mental struggle: "I still have a bright future ahead of me, I can't possibly perish again!"

"Moreover, this person's methods and strength are unfathomable, far surpassing those of ordinary humans. That ancient pressure even suppressed my sacred beast bloodline, demonstrating his extraordinary nature. In terms of strength, this person certainly deserves the title."

"Besides, it's not without a chance. When my bloodline awakens again, my strength will surely experience another huge leap, and I will be able to leave freely then."

Just then, Li Qing spoke again.

"Since ancient times, strength has been the most respected force in the world. Not to mention your mere Sacred Beast lineage, it is not uncommon for even True Spirit lineage members to become mounts of powerful beings!"

"Indeed, since ancient times, strength has been the highest virtue in the world!"

The Sky-Splitter slowly lowered its proud head, dejected: "I am willing to accept your bet."

"When my bloodline is revived in the future, I will challenge you once again!"

"I'm really looking forward to that day!"

Li Qing smiled faintly.

With the foundation he has accumulated, he will only become stronger and stronger, not to mention the blessing of the Sea-Suppressing Pearl.

It can be said that the Sky-Splitter has no chance of escaping his grasp.

The next moment, Li Qing flicked his finger, and a drop of essence blood flew out. It then instantly transformed into a large area of ​​interwoven blood patterns, which condensed into a divine soul mark that was interwoven with black and blood, and fell straight towards the Sky-Splitting Sparrow.

"wrong!"

The moment the soul imprint was planted on it, the Sky-Splitting Sparrow realized what had happened and was furious: "You deceived me! You haven't sworn an oath to the Great Dao!"

"As far as I'm concerned, would I break my promise and leave a flaw in my Dao heart for this matter?" Li Qing said calmly.

“That’s true!” Lie Jiutian nodded in agreement, then shook his head repeatedly: “No! No!”

"Regardless of the circumstances, you should first swear an oath to the Great Dao. Otherwise, if you go back on your word, wouldn't I have no chance to regain my freedom?"

"late!"

"What's late?"

"I have already planted the mark on your soul, why should I put another shackle on it?"

"You! You!!"

Seeing the somewhat exasperated Sky-Splitting Sparrow, Li Qing waved his hand: "Don't worry, the day you defeat me, you will regain your freedom."

"Besides, this matter is already settled, there's no need to think about it anymore, it's pointless anyway."

The next moment, Li Qing fell directly onto the back of the Sky-Splitting Sparrow.

Before he could land, crimson flames rose from the depths of his wings. Seeing this, the Sky-Splitting Sparrow quickly said, "Don't be offended, I'm still not used to it."

call!call!
The vast blue light forcefully extinguished the demonic flames, and Li Qing landed, saying calmly, "Now that you have become my mount, you shall not presume to call yourself 'I' in front of me from now on!"

"Also, remember to call me master!"

"This seat."

The moment the Sky-Splitting Sparrow opened its mouth, the Soul Imprint suddenly activated, like endless sharp blades piercing its soul.

"Master, no! I've remembered this."

The immense pain in his soul caused the Sky-Splitting Sparrow's demonic body to tremble violently.

From now on, your name will be changed to - Sparrow!

"Sparrow?"

"No, it's impossible!"

"I am a descendant of a sacred beast, how can I use such a vulgar name?"

The Soul Imprint Activated Again
After a long while, faced with the suppression of the soul imprint, the Sky-Splitting Sparrow finally chose to submit: "Whatever Master says, goes!"

"I have no objection."

Li Qing nodded in satisfaction.

Unlike the Celestial Star Turtle, this demon was subdued by him halfway through the journey. It possesses a powerful demonic nature and therefore still needs to be properly trained.

"Let's go, follow me to the Dream Cloud Sect in the Northern Region of the Southern Moon Sea!"

"Dream Cloud Sect?"

A look of confusion appeared in the Sky-Splitting Sparrow's demonic eyes: "Where is this place?"

Although it originated from the Southern Moon Sea, it was weak back then and knew nothing about this place.

Li Qing shook his head helplessly, and with a slight thought, he instantly poured the entire layout of the Southern Moon Sea and even his identity and other information into his soul through the soul imprint.

"The Lord of Heaven and Earth in the Eastern Seas?"

The Sky-Splitting Sparrow's demonic eyes widened. Although it didn't turn around, it still used its divine soul power to examine its master on its back once more.

"Is the human race so weak now?"

"Your master, at the late Nascent Soul stage, is qualified to become the lord of a sea region?"

Li Qing said calmly, "Is realm important?"

The Sky-Splitter immediately fell silent.

Indeed, this master may appear to be at the late Nascent Soul stage, but his true strength is probably unmatched even by those at the peak of the late fourth stage.

"In that case, once he reaches the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage, wouldn't his strength be even more terrifying? It would be even more difficult for me to escape."

"However, since my master is the ruler of this eastern sea region, and I am second only to him, shouldn't I also be able to be high above him?"
