"I am a core offspring of the Purple Crystal Clan from the Southern Wilderness Continent, you can't harm me!"

"I come from the Nine Palaces of Yanfu State."

"I'm only one step away from entering the Taboo Sequence, dare you wait for me to complete my breakthrough and then battle with me for three hundred rounds!"

"I've already made the breakthrough, that's why I am standing here, and you are lying here."

After several rounds of confrontation, Senluo was thoroughly defeated and fell silent.

Although located in different continents, he had heard of the six major Overlord Level powers of Yanfu State.

Yet, as a Quasi-taboo, he couldn't even withstand a few moves from the opponent... he suspected that this person has carved his own path on the road of Taboo.

So, it's bad.

He couldn't win with his fists, couldn't compete in terms of background, and couldn't outtalk...

For the first time in his life, Senluo was completely outmatched!

Seeing him suddenly fall into despondency, Ji Jingqiu consoled:

"Don't worry, I'm actually easy to get along with. To meet is fate, the fact that we both have descended on the same ground is even more proof of our destiny. Subordinate to me now, and you'll be the first elder in the future, with boundless merit!"

"I'm not so desperate that I would seize the fortune of my subordinates by force; I just need your assistance in the future to search for specific Heaven and Earth spiritual mechanisms, as well as a large amount of Divine Remains."

Senluo: "..."

Hearing such similar words from the other party, they felt particularly harsh to him, like a naked mockery, causing him great pain, making him want to crawl into a hole.

At this point, Senluo understood he had no other options but he was reluctant.

He had just entered the Inheritance Ancient Road. His glorious war chronicle hadn't even begun. Was it going to be overshadowed by someone else?

He felt given time, he could catch up with Ji Jingqiu, at least to the point of having a head-on battle, rather than losing miserably in a few moves and being trampled underfoot.

This bastard lacked respect for Quasi-taboos! freewēbnoveℓ.com

Ji Jingqiu saw through his reluctance, and to ensure this person works diligently in the future rather than slacking off, he thoughtfully tossed him a "pie in the sky".

"If you feel dissatisfied, I can give you a chance to challenge me. One day in the future when you feel that you've completed your transformation and reached peak combat power, you can challenge me. If you can withstand three strikes from me, I will grant you your freedom and make a new alliance with you."

"But remember, you only have one chance, my patience is limited. If you can't even measure time and situation, then it would be best to exit the stage early," Ji Jingqiu said slowly.

He offered such patience and tolerance to the other because he recognized the strength was indeed remarkable – surpassing the Sealing King Peak, yet still shy of taking the final step.

Such a strength, even when placed on the entire Inheritance Ancient Road, would stand out, becoming an excellent agent and worker.

In the future, once he truly established a force, this person could sit in his stead and hold the fort during his seclusion.

It could be said that meeting Senluo right upon entering the Ancient Road was a gift from heaven.

Hearing Ji Jingqiu's words, Senluo's spirits lifted, and he eagerly asked:

"Really?!"

"Of course, I won't deceive people over such matters," Ji Jingqiu responded straightforwardly.

Senluo's spirits were instantly enlivened.

Three strikes...

He understood, this was the ladder extended to him!

This fellow acknowledged his strength and potential, preparing to offer him the respect he deserved, and therefore established with him the agreement of three strikes!

Once he steps into the Taboo, this fellow would re-sign a contract with him, promoting from a follower to a partner.

Thinking of the other's strength...

Senluo had to admit, this was definitely a formidable enemy; during their previous encounters, he had not been able to gauge the other's depth at all!

Senluo immediately perked up, saying cheerfully: "Alright, I accept!"

After reaching a consensus, Ji Jingqiu and Senluo signed the relevant Spirit Contract. Since it was the first contract Ji Jingqiu had drawn up, he imposed "a bit" too many restrictions.

Considering the step down offered by Ji Jingqiu earlier and trusting his self-confidence, Senluo held his nose and agreed.

With the Spirit Contract established and feeling the restrictions it imposed, Senluo sighed, realising he would have to submit to Ji Jingqiu's command, for now.

But no matter, once he attained a certain fortune, he could attempt an Extreme Realm transition, breaking through the barrier of Taboo.

Ji Jingqiu, sensing the activation of the Spirit Contract, finally stepped back and reached out a hand to pull Senluo up.

"I am Ji Jingqiu."

"Senluo."

The two made formal introductions.

The terms of the contract were that, on the Ancient Road, Senluo had to act as Ji Jingqiu's follower, assisting him in gathering resources, building power, and must not engage in any betrayal or selling out.

As for after leaving the Ancient Road...

It was obviously unrealistic to think of enslaving someone for a lifetime by the power of the contract, after all at their current realms, the restraining power attached to the contracts they could make was trivial in the eyes of the truly Supreme of various clans.

This was also one of the reasons Senluo comforted himself with temporarily bowing his head; survival was the most important thing. Many powerful beings have faced setbacks on their path to rise, and he was no exception.

And if it really came to lifelong subjugation, he'd rather die.

"You all may leave now."

Ji Jingqiu looked around at the Martial Artists nearby, most of them had already left, but a small number remained, clearly indicating their intentions.

However, Ji Jingqiu didn't have the habit of "collecting" people on sight, especially those who were far inferior to himself.

The reason he suppressed Senluo was also because Senluo took the initiative to come forth.

Seeing that Ji Jingqiu didn't move to attack them arbitrarily, some of the crowd relaxed and, mustering courage, stepped forward, wanting to join his command.

Ji Jingqiu pondered for a moment, felt this was a good start, and then glanced at Senluo, pointing at him:
