A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

After quickly finishing speaking to Feng Jiutian, Duan Zhiyuan turned around, his smile vanishing abruptly, replaced by an extremely cold expression.

The group quickly disappeared from Feng Jiutian's sight.

"Cough cough..."

After Duan Zhiyuan and the others left, Feng Jiutian coughed twice and said coldly, "Be careful. They will retaliate for any mistake. The spirit herb that was swallowed by the Wind Moon Beast is always very important. I was too far away to see it clearly. You should pay attention to the people around you."

"Yes!"

Ji Tianzuo responded, then, as if remembering something, hurriedly reported to Feng Jiutian: "Master, I have discovered..."

Before he could finish speaking, the ground suddenly shook violently, a rumbling sound rang out, and cracks appeared on the surface.

"Oh no, it's a magical beast guarding the spirit herb."

Mo Shaoxie gripped Feng Jiutian's wrist, his eyes filled with urgency, and said, "You'd better leave quickly, don't linger on me. This magical beast is over the eighth rank, you can't handle it!"

"No!" Feng Jiutian stared at Mo Shaoxie and said solemnly, "You can't even protect yourself, how can I leave you alone! Jiuyao!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiuyao's petite figure appeared out of thin air, grinning as she said, "Finally, it's my turn to come out again! I won't cause any trouble!"

When Ji Tianzuo saw Jiu Yao, he was momentarily dazed, as if all the sounds around him had disappeared.

"Watch how I deal with this big guy!"

Jiuyao twisted his wrist and charged toward the giant beast that had appeared ahead. This magical beast looked so strange that Feng Jiutian couldn't even tell what it was.

"Hmph—how audacious!"

The giant beast exhaled a breath, which actually knocked Jiuyao down from mid-air! It was as easy as eating and drinking!

"Nine Luminaries!"

Feng Jiutian moved swiftly and caught Jiu Yao, who had been knocked down. He frowned and asked, "How are you?"

"This guy... he actually has an advantage over me!" Jiu Yao's expression was also incredulous. You must know that Jiu Yao is the ancient demonic beast Taotie, who devours heaven and earth and no one can defeat him!

Feng Jiutian's expression also changed. He quickly led Jiuyao away from the range of the giant beast's attack and handed her over to Ji Tianzuo: "Keep an eye on her, don't let her charge up!"

After saying this, Feng Jiutian immediately flew into the air and stopped to face the giant beast. It was clear that the giant beast had already gained intelligence. When it saw Feng Jiutian, it narrowed its eyes, but its eyes still showed disdain for humans.

It snorted coldly, its voice seemingly coming from a great distance, and said to Jiu Yao, "How can a dignified ancient Taotie be driven by a human? What a disgrace!"

"You seem to know her very well?"

Feng Jiutian raised an eyebrow and actually started chatting with the other party.

The giant beast sneered, "It's just some food for me. It's been a long time since I've seen one. I didn't expect there to be a Taotie here. It's a pity it's still in its infancy. It's really not worth the desire to eat it."

"It's you..."

The giant beast turned its gaze to Feng Jiutian and snorted angrily: "That little thing on your shoulder ate my Transformation Grass, how are you going to compensate me!"

Feng Jiutian became wary and took two steps back: "Then what do you want?"

"Hmph! You've ruined my chance to transform! Today I will tear you to pieces!" With that, the giant beast's eyes flashed with ferocity as it roared, and suddenly the sky darkened and a fierce wind arose!

Feng Jiutian immediately mobilized the elemental power within her body, colliding with the power of the giant beast.

"Bam—"

In an instant, the earth shook and the entire Yushan Mountain trembled. Feng Jiutian felt that the spiritual power that had been suppressed and unable to break through in his body seemed to be loosening, and his expression changed.

We absolutely cannot advance at this time!

Feng Jiu had been forcibly suppressing this impulse for days, but then she was affected by the force of the giant beast's attack. She took a step back, clutching her chest, and forcibly suppressed the metallic taste in her mouth.

So strong!

The magical beast, which clearly appears to be only at the eighth rank, is actually much stronger than that; it seems to be even at the ninth rank!

Or perhaps it was trapped here for some reason, and that spiritual herb was its lifeline, which is why it was so furious.

As everyone knows, the ancient Taotie could eat everything in the world, and nothing was a food. But what terrifying thing Taotie ate was no one knew!

But Feng Jiutian already had a crazy idea in her mind—

Since it can feed on the ancient Taotie, it must also be an ancient magical beast. Ancient magical beasts are incredibly powerful and unmatched. Even if she mobilized the power of Lingyuan to reach the God-Breaking Realm and fought against this giant beast, she would only end up with a lose-lose situation, and others would benefit instead!

The image that flashed through her mind was the formation for contracting ancient magical beasts in the second chapter of the Beast Contract! Since she couldn't completely defeat this giant beast, she might as well take a gamble and contract it!

Thinking of Feng Jiutian, she naturally began to prepare. During the battle with the giant beast, she kept dodging and secretly cut a finger to draw a contract formation around the beast.

The ancient formation vanished into thin air in a flash, gradually forming an invisible formation under Feng Jiutian's control.

On one side, where no one could see, a hint of worry flashed in Mo Shaoxie's eyes.

This behemoth is not easy to deal with. If the little woman cannot fully form a contract with it, he will help her even if it means exposing his identity!

Time passed, and more and more people in Yushan noticed Feng Jiutian's movements. She needed to speed things up!

As Feng Jiutian thought this, the array in her hands was completely completed. A determined look flashed in her eyes, and she softly shouted, "Activate!"

Suddenly, a bright golden light flashed, and the contract formation was fully revealed. Every pattern of the formation emitted golden light, soaring into the sky!

At the same time, golden light descended from the sky and enveloped Feng Jiutian. Feng Jiutian frantically channeled his spiritual power into the formation, suppressing the giant beast. The giant beast's eyes flashed with surprise the moment the formation appeared, and it looked at Feng Jiutian with some strangeness. However, whatever the giant beast said was drowned out by the formation, so no one could hear it.

However, since it was an ancient magical beast, Feng Jiutian could not immediately form a contract with it, and the two sides entered a stalemate.

The movement of these two beams of light and their aura had spread far and wide, making them known to everyone!

"It's a contract master!"

Naturally, people in Yushan also sensed the commotion, and golden light appeared in everyone's eyes as they rushed toward the source of the light!

Even those who were not in Yushan but saw the golden light in their respective kingdoms had already made plans in their hearts. Some even used teleportation scrolls that they had treasured for hundreds of years to teleport directly to Yushan.
