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

At the same time, a massive contract array formed beneath the man and the python, encircling them.

The contract array trapped the python within, attempting to refine it.

Seeing that she had successfully activated the contract formation, Feng Jiu finally breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed weakly to the ground.

After catching his breath, Feng Jiutian quickly looked at the giant python.

The giant python seemed to sense the strangeness of the contract array, and suddenly, as if enraged, it rammed into the contract array.

"boom!"

With a violent slam from the giant python, Feng Jiutian coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground.

"Girl, are you alright?" Xuanjizi asked anxiously upon seeing the situation.

Damn it! He had underestimated this sixth-tier giant python.

With Feng Jiutian's current level of cultivation, he can only be considered a first-tier cultivator at most, which is far inferior to a sixth-tier giant python.

Even with the existence of the contract array, the backlash from a contract that exceeds the level would be enough to kill Feng Jiutian.

Feng Jiutian shook his head, forced himself to sit cross-legged, and calmly circulated the remaining spiritual energy in his body, allowing it to slowly recover and become more abundant, in order to support the normal operation of the contract array.

As Feng Jiutian's spiritual power recovered, the light of the contract array grew brighter, and at the same time, the giant python's struggles became more and more intense.

The giant python glared fiercely at Feng Jiutian. Although it didn't know what the surrounding light was, the fear from the depths of its soul told it that it had to escape.

The giant python used all its spiritual power and slammed into the light circle beside it.

The aperture was violently shaken and almost shattered!

At the same time, Feng Jiutian, who was sitting cross-legged, also coughed up a mouthful of blood. The spiritual energy in his body almost surged wildly, but fortunately, Xuanjizi intervened in time to stabilize the boiling spiritual energy.

"Girl, you must stay calm!"

Xuanjizi watched anxiously, but apart from helping her stabilize her spiritual power, there was nothing he could do.

Although he reached the level of a Medicine Saint in his lifetime, that was only limited to alchemy. In terms of combat skills, alchemists are naturally weaker than other cultivators.

Furthermore, since he had never practiced the Contract Master's Manual after obtaining it, he truly didn't know how to help Feng Jiutian, let alone intervene in the events within the Contract Array.

Everything depends on Feng Jiutian's own exploration and discovery of how to do it.

Feng Jiutian stared firmly at the contract array, then sat cross-legged again, guiding the spiritual energy within his body.

Even if it means dying from the backlash, she will never give up.

This process was like sitting on pins and needles, and Feng Jiutian's face grew paler and paler. Xuanjizi even thought that she was about to give up.

But that girl endured the backlash from the giant python's repeated attacks.

That unwavering determination is astonishing, admirable, and even pitiful!

“Girl, even a little girl like you can hold on like this, how could I, an old man, be afraid of death by myself? Alright, even if my soul is scattered, I will go with you.”

Perhaps Xuanji Zi did have ulterior motives from the beginning, hoping that this girl would one day be able to help him.

But without realizing it, something seems to have changed.

At least for now, Xuanjizi really can't bear to see her get into trouble like that.

The next second, a faint light suddenly shot out from Feng Jiutian's forehead, transforming into a protective shield that enveloped Feng Jiutian in the light.

"Bang bang bang..."

The backlash from the giant python's frantic struggles was partially mitigated by the light.

"Old man, take back your spiritual power! Are you out of your mind?!" Feng Jiutian was fully conscious and naturally sensed Xuanjizi's actions. He immediately cursed the Great Dao in his heart.

But Xuanji Zi chuckled, and a nonchalant voice echoed in her mind: "You have a really unique way of showing concern for people."

"If you just die like that, I won't cry for you!" That old geezer!

"Don't worry, I don't want to die yet. I haven't passed on all my skills to you, how could I bear to die? Don't get distracted, I'll lend you a hand!" As Xuanjizi finished speaking, his spiritual power grew stronger.

Feng Jiutian's pale face was deeply furrowed, but she knew that saying more would be of no use!

At the same time, spiritual energy surged and gathered, and the light of the contract array shone brightly.

The giant python sensed the power within the formation that was trying to suppress it, and grew increasingly agitated. In the end, it went berserk and tried to break through the contract formation.

bang bang bang...

The backlash from each collision caused Feng Jiutian's blood energy to surge more and more violently, to the point that he was about to vomit blood again.

This time, however, Feng Jiutian forcibly suppressed the metallic taste rising in her throat and instead channeled her spiritual power even more.

The difference between the first-tier humans and the first-tier monsters is already quite significant.

Moreover, it's as if a first-tier human is now fighting against a sixth-tier magical beast!

This was originally a contest with a huge disparity in strength. Feng Jiutian was able to hold on until now without collapsing entirely because of her exceptionally strong and resolute soul.

Although she wasn't in the cultivation world in her previous life, what she cultivated was an unwavering perseverance and a powerful soul, which was absolutely astonishing.

Xuanji Zi seemed to be influenced by this girl's persistence, and the spiritual power condensed in his soul body became stronger and stronger!

Little did they know that because Xuanji Zi had shielded Feng Jiutian from some of the backlash, Feng Jiutian, through her repeated efforts to endure, gradually activated the power of the Holy Blood Clan's bloodline within her.

The blood felt as if it were gradually burning, and the intense pain from the backlash began to subside as spiritual energy filled the body.

When Feng Jiutian sensed the changes within her body, she immediately said to Xuanjizi in her mind, "Old man, withdraw your spiritual power. Don't let your soul be scattered before I've even learned all your skills!"

Xuanji Zi felt a warmth in her heart upon hearing this. Although this girl could be sharp-tongued at times, she was definitely a person of great loyalty and affection!

Of course, he also sensed the spiritual power contained within her body immediately, so he didn't hesitate to withdraw the spiritual power he had already consumed.

But he still watched her every move with bated breath!

"Girl, you must speak up if you can't hold on any longer."

"Ok!"

As soon as the dialogue between their hearts ended, Feng Jiutian felt his blood surge even more.

The spiritual energy within her body seemed to be burning, increasingly filling her body, and the contract array also began to undergo earth-shattering changes as the spiritual energy within her body increased.

Within the circle of the ancient contract array, which shone brilliantly, a pentagon with special characters began to gradually form, and each corner represented an ancient totem of a different color.

Of course, Feng Jiutian was unaware of this change at the moment!

But the giant python truly felt a fear and dread that came from the bottom of its heart, and it wanted to continue to crash into the contract array!
