# Chapter 2978: Seven-Day Agreement!
The starry sky was deathly silent!
The Immortal Sword Array was broken, and many Eternal Realm powerhouses had their divine souls damaged, spitting blood as they flew backward!
Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable's small world was nearly shattered, looking at Jiangnan with terror!
What was that just now... exactly?
A single thought becoming an immortal?
So the incredibly powerful divine shadow from before was just something he hastily pieced together?
That instantly formed immortal shadow had already surpassed the limits of this starry sky, hadn't it?
And was this the limit of Eternal Demon Lord?
Perhaps not!
Nian Hongyan was completely stunned!
Goosebumps shot from her tailbone straight to her crown!
Great Yan Sword Immortal was actually defeated by Demon Lord Senior! Defeated head-on?
How... how strong is he exactly?
Doesn't this mean that no one in the world can defeat Demon Lord Senior anymore?
Truly invincible across the starry sky?
Sigh~
In the void, ink and water gathered, once again condensed into Li Daoyan's body!
He knelt on the ground, his eyes hollow, silent, lowering his head to stare at his own hands!
That blade Jiangnan had just struck severed all his pride!
His sword heart... was shattered...
At this moment, Li Daoyan had lost his sword heart, lost his direction forward, his entire being like a walking corpse!
Jiangnan squinted:
(´≖ꇴ≖)"Hehehe~ No longer trying to resist? If you don't move, then it's my turn!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand, and infinite Wind Shadows surged out, directly unleashing an extremely cruel teaching mode on all the Eternal Realm powerhouses, rogue cultivators, and Dao Sect disciples present!
Whenever he caught someone, he threw them into the biting south wind, stripped them bare, transferred their treasures before Nian Hongyan, while the people were tossed into the wind to blow!
Those Eternal Realm powerhouses gave everything, roaring as they charged forward!
They didn't flee, because they clearly understood in their hearts!
Since Great Yan Sword Immortal had already been defeated, and the world was only so big, where could they run to?
So they might as well give their all now, at least leaving hope for the Great Yan Era!
(´థ口థ)ﾂ"Ancestor! Go! Hurry! Anyone can fall here, but not you!"
"Go back and unite the Six Great Dao Sects to attack! This isn't over yet!"
Even more Eternal Realm experts roared:
(ง≥口≤)ง"Ancestor! Running isn't shameful! If you give up, does the Great Yan Era still have a future? Go! We can't hold him off for long!"
Jiangnan's hehehe evil laughter echoed through the starry sky!
(˵¯͒⥎¯͒˵)"Mere insects, daring to block me, the Eternal Demon Lord? None of you are leaving today!"
As he spoke, he kept grabbing people, but clearly wasn't using full strength, employing a sandbag-style fighting method!
Big and Little Eye couldn't bear to watch anymore—just because you're called Demon Lord, you actually become one?
Getting into character that fast?
Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable was also anxious:
(￢益￢٥)"Tch~ I owe you this!"
Despite being severely injured, he charged forward!
(•́益•̀٥)"Great Yan! Go! I'll hold off the Demon Lord! Call Sparrow, Yan Xing, and the others to come together—there will be a way!"
Li Daoyan shook his head, his face full of sorrow:
(´-﹏-｀)"Useless... all of it is futile struggle..."
"All the swords I, Li Daoyan, have devoted my life to can't match a single thought of the Eternal Demon Lord. With one blade, he negated my entire existence, shattered all my dreams and fantasies!"
"My heart is dead... There is no more Great Yan Sword Immortal in this world!"
Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable was furious:
(•̀へ•́#)"Swordsman! Swords may break, but they never dull! Those are your own words—have you forgotten them all?"
"Look up! Do you want your Dao Sect disciples to die in vain?"
"They're all fighting! What right do you have to surrender? Run! Then bring people back to counterattack!"
Li Daoyan looked up in a daze, watching the disciples who charged forward fearlessly, his eyes already blurred with tears!
But when he saw Jiangnan's invincible figure, his heart was ash!
The one who could defeat him... wouldn't be me...
Just then, an Eternal Realm powerhouse broke through the encirclement of Wind Shadows, hoisted Li Daoyan onto his shoulder, and turned to flee!
ᕕ(‧̣̥̇･ˇ益ˇ･)ง⁽꒪-꒪⁾"Ancestor! Go!"
Jiangnan saw this, a look of annoyance on his face!
(⇀～↼‶)"Tch~ One of you escaped, huh? Hmph! So what? The result won't change!"
"I, the Eternal Demon Lord, give you seven days to prepare for battle. Next time, you'd better bring more people!"
"If no one comes when the time's up? Then I'll take the initiative to attack, and when that happens, I'll take this starry sky world!"
"Ahahahaha~ cough cough cough... hahaha!"
Nian Hongyan's forehead was covered in cold sweat!
(•́ω•̀٥)Laughing so hard you choked? Really?
When Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable saw Li Daoyan being carried off, he breathed a sigh of relief!
Then he started cursing himself!
Am I crazy? Actually helping Li Daoyan escape? I should have been the first to run when things turned bad!
Some rogue cultivator I am! Am I worthy of the title?
Time to scram, scram!
Just as Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable was about to flee, Jiangnan's figure suddenly appeared beside him!
He wrapped an arm around his shoulder, smiling as he looked at Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable!
(￢̫￢)°﹏°٥)"Where do you think you're going?"
Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable's expression froze. His gaze hardened as he prepared to strike—there was no way he would fall into the Demon Lord's hands!
Jiangnan laughed: "I'm really lonely here alone in the Demon Eye Galaxy. How about staying here to keep me company?"
"Of course, you can leave, but then I'll chase after you and slaughter every cultivator in your Rogue Cultivator Alliance!"
"You know I can do it, and no one can stop me!"
Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable nearly ground his teeth to dust:
(´-﹏-`；)"I... I'll stay!"
In this situation, he could only hope that Li Daoyan and the others would come to rescue him?
Hopefully, they'd be effective enough!
Jiangnan smiled even more brightly:
(•́ω•̀)"That's more like it~ Isn't it nice here? Stay in the wind a bit longer; maybe you'll even learn some new tricks!"
"But before that, I have a little question. Please enlighten me, fellow cultivator!"
Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable was stunned: (๑•̌.•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣"Wh... what question?"
Jiangnan said seriously:
(˵ಠĹ̯ಠ˵)"Are you male or female? Let me see?"
With that, he directly pulled open Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable's sash and peeked inside!
(ଵĹ̯ଵ˵)
Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable: ???
Jiangnan's mouth fell open:
∑(ଵ0ଵ๑)"Oh ho~ It's the inconvenient-for-human-weapon type? This lady's been hiding deep, hasn't she? Woman disguised as a man?"
Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable's face turned red as a furnace!
(งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง⁼³₌₃"Disgrace! This is utter disgrace! A scholar can be killed but not humiliated!"
(°ー°〃)"Then I'll just kill you, shall I?"
(︶﹏︶〃)"No no no... Humiliate me then. Humiliation is fine—I can take it!"
"Don't worry, there's even more humiliation coming later~"
In the fierce wind, over twenty Eternal Realm powerhouses, including Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable, were all stripped of their clothes and treasures, standing neatly in a row!
Shivering in the gale!
Not only that, Jiangnan also threatened the Rogue Cultivator Alliance to quickly send technique scrolls, treasures, and such!
If they didn't want anything to happen to Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable!
Now the Rogue Cultivator Alliance was operating at full throttle, sending treasures this way!
Ship after ship was dragged over, and Jiangnan simply confiscated the ships too!
At this moment, Jiangnan directly gave Nian Hongyan a look!
(͡°͜ʖ͡°)✧"Hey~ Start from left to right, soul search and learn. After you're done, tell me what you found~"
Nian Hongyan stood frozen like a stone statue!
=͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)
Creation Realm powerhouses could also be stripped naked and lined up?!
Nian Hongyan's forehead dripped with cold sweat:
(•́﹏•̀٥)"De... Demon Lord Senior, if an Eternal Realm powerhouse doesn't resist and fully cooperates, I might be able to soul search them!"
"But for Creation Realm... I really can't!"
The gap was too big—how could a mere small cultivator soul search a Creation Realm existence?
Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable's face showed a hint of pride!
After all, I am one of the seven strongest in the cultivation world, the one sustaining the entire Rogue Cultivator Alliance single-handedly!
How could just anyone soul search me?
Jiangnan frowned slightly. Still not possible, huh?
Jiangnan's gaze fell on Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable!
(͡°◠͡°)✧"How about this then! Tell me all the divine soul refining techniques you know. If you make a single mistake, I'll kill you and slaughter the Rogue Cultivator Alliance!"
"You speak for one hour, and I'll throw you into the wind and let the Wind Shadows beat you for one hour. How's that? Fair, right? Equivalent exchange!"
[XXX...]
Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable was dumbfounded. What the hell kind of equivalent exchange is that?
Fair my ass!
I tell you secret techniques, and not only do you not reward me, but you also throw me into the wind to get beaten for an hour?
My brain must be kicked by a donkey for me to agree to this deal!
But at that moment, Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable suddenly paused, looking in shock at those Wind Shadows!
These Wind Shadows were all concrete manifestations of divine abilities, many of them utilizing the fundamental rules of the world!
He might get beaten up, but he might also learn something new—things that had never existed in the cultivation world!
Sigh~
So this was the so-called equivalent exchange?
Now Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable was confused. He couldn't figure out what this Eternal Demon Lord was really trying to do!
If you say he's evil, he hasn't killed a single person so far. He clearly has the strength to sweep through the cultivation world, yet he hasn't done so, giving them time to prepare instead!
But if you say he's good? He hasn't done a single decent thing so far!
Either way, Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable had no right to choose!
"I... I agree!"
Jiangnan smiled: "I know everything about you, so don't try to fool me! You know the consequences!"
"So... do you want to talk first or get beaten first?"
Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable shuddered and quickly said:
(•́益•̀٥)"Talk first! Talk first! I know a lot! I'm somewhat familiar with all six paths!"
The reason Jiangnan kept Blood Umbrella Immortal Venerable was precisely this—rogue cultivators learn widely, spanning all six domains, with exposure to all six paths!
The Rogue Cultivator Alliance's collection was also diverse and comprehensive, but varied without depth!
Jiangnan didn't need depth either. There were still six others he hadn't caught yet. Start with the Rogue Cultivator Alliance to lay a foundation—everything should follow a gradual progression!
Besides, in a few days, they would come together to suppress him. He could catch them all then and have them give him lectures!
Of course, Jiangnan's plan didn't stop there!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have set a seven-day agreement!
