I, a prison guard in the Heavenly Prison, secretly became invincible thanks to the system.

Chapter 908 Good Fortune Favors Me, Give Me Face

"That's strange, it looks like there's a fight going on up ahead?"

Ten miles from where Kou Wuji was ambushed, Ye Kang and his two companions arrived at this spot.

Having just finished hunting a demon here and preparing to leave, Ye Kang keenly sensed a slight fluctuation in the air.

Of course, only he could perceive it.

Because his primordial spirit is extremely stable, its coverage area increases with the improvement of his cultivation level.

One reason is that he had absorbed too many divine treasures before, and another reason is the characteristics of the Supreme Heart Sutra.

True Qi flows like a river, endlessly regenerating; the primordial spirit cascades down from the heavens like a waterfall.

Upon hearing this, Pang Jinchui's eyes lit up immediately: "Great! I want to go too!"

Luo Xue looked helpless; following these two battle maniacs, she was almost infected and becoming one of them.

Ye Kang also smirked: "Perfect, no matter who's fighting, the three of us should lend a hand. Fighting and killing is no good, let's go break it up!"

The three immediately used stealth techniques to fly over.

Meanwhile, Kou Wuji was almost driven mad by the beating.

Hua Nongying's natal spiritual treasure is extremely troublesome; once it is hit, her true energy is immediately sealed.

Fortunately, he discovered it in time and took precautions, but that guy was caught off guard and had too many tricks up his sleeve. Plus, he was surrounded by magical treasures, making it impossible for him to attack head-on.

He originally had the Earth Escape Technique, so even if he couldn't win, he could still escape. But then there was this bastard!

"Shangguan Yan! I have no grudge against you, why should I help him!"

Kou Wuji was furious. He could have escaped long ago, but Shangguan Yan's Midas touch completely sealed off his earth escape technique.

After all, he doesn't know the Metal Element Escape Technique!

Shangguan Yan smiled apologetically: "Brother Kou, please don't be offended. I really need your help and have no choice but to lend a hand."

"Hypocritical! Stop pretending! I've heard you're the most cunning one in the entire Wuyin City, and now it seems I was right!"

"Brother Kou, why are you making personal attacks? I am an upright and honest person, how could I have done anything underhanded?"

"Upright and honorable? Then why did you turn my stones into gold? Does that mean it's fair and honorable for two against one?!"

"That's not right. We were fighting two against one, and that was it. We fought two against one openly and honestly, without hiding anything or making excuses. Isn't that another level of fairness and honesty?"

"puff!"

Kou Wuji was so angry that he vomited blood.

Although he probably uses this shameless method every day, it's still very unpleasant to have it used on him by others.

"Enough with the nonsense! Hand over the mark, and I might let you leave so you can continue collecting."

Hua Nongying spoke coldly, her natal copper coin dancing in front of her, ready to strike unexpectedly at any moment.

Kou Wuji gritted his teeth, pondering the gains and losses.

There's no escaping it now, so we need to think about whether it's better to be eliminated directly or to start hunting demons again.

Just as he was pondering this, a hammer suddenly came crashing down from the horizon, carrying immense force, and slammed heavily onto the ground.

The three of them paused for a moment, then looked up at the horizon in surprise.

Pang Jinchui took the lead, his eyes filled with fighting spirit, while Ye Kang and Luo Xue followed slowly behind.

"It's him!"

Shangguan Yan recognized Ye Kang at a glance, and his heart sank.

Hua Nongying's face turned ashen.

If you were to ask who she fears most in this blessed land, it would undoubtedly be two people.

One is the Ninth Prince, and the other is Ye Kang.

Both of them are body tempering fanatics, whose methods are their natural counter.

But why is this guy here? What a coincidence!

In contrast to them, Kou Wuji suddenly burst into wild laughter.

"Hahahaha! You two have no idea how many Fortune and Prosperity Pearls this guy has stolen. Now he has an incredibly deep fortune and prosperity, he doesn't need to do anything, he can have good luck just by being there!"

Kou Wuji succinctly revealed the key point.

The reason Ye Kang was able to run into them so coincidentally was because of his good fortune.

When the time is right, heaven and earth lend their support; Ye Kang doesn't need to pursue anything, good fortune will naturally come his way.

Kou Wuji roared, "Fellow Daoist Ye! Quickly lend me a hand, and I'll give you all their demon soul imprints!"

"shut up!"

Hua Nongying roared angrily and her natal spiritual treasure slammed into the ground.

Kou Wuji quickly summoned a black iron token to block the attack.

Although a crack appeared on the token, at least his true energy was preserved.

At this point, Ye Kang also understood the current situation.

Unexpectedly, it was Kou Wuji who was tricked.

This was the first time Shangguan Yan and Hua Nongying had seen these two people in so many days.

As expected of top ten seeded players, each one is incredibly patient.

Of course, what he was most concerned about was the demon soul mark on Hua Nongying's arm.

There are a full six hundred questions; if I can get them, it's more than enough to compete for first place.

Of course, Shangguan Yan also had about two hundred demon souls on his arm, and together with the two hundred on Kou Wuji's arm, the three of them possessed a total of one thousand demon souls.

Ye Kang was deeply moved. Just how many people had these guys robbed?

In other words, as long as these three are dealt with, one will be the absolute number one in terms of numbers and will definitely be able to take first place.

Therefore, he said bluntly, "The three of you are all of the same ilk, so why make things difficult for each other? Why not give me some face and let's make money together peacefully?"

"Are you kidding me?" Hua Nongying replied coldly.

Ye Kang looked utterly shocked: "If you don't give me face, then don't blame me. Miss Pang, I'm leaving you to my care."

"Alright!" Pang Jinchui couldn't wait any longer. He laughed and swung his hammer, smashing it towards Hua Nongying.

"madman!"

Hua Nongying was dumbfounded. How could this be? I only asked one question, is it really that serious?

She immediately withdrew and focused all her efforts on dealing with Pang Jinchui.

Of course, it's absolutely impossible to confront Pang Jinchui head-on; the only outcome would be being smashed into a pulp.

Fortunately, Hua Nongying was well-prepared. With a flick of her right hand, a hundred explosive talismans exploded in the air.

The rumbling sound was incessant.

Ignoring that, Ye Kang looked at Shangguan Yan.

"Fellow Daoist, we meet again. I never imagined that your art of turning stone into gold was so profound. It has truly broadened my horizons."

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me. Is reconciliation still possible?" Shangguan Yan smiled helplessly, knowing that he had met a tough opponent this time.

Although they considered themselves very strong, it was almost impossible for them to take down Ye Kang.

Not to mention, there's also Kou Wuji, who has free time.

Ye Kang smiled and said, "Of course, you can leave now, or give me all your marks."

Shangguan Yan gave a wry smile: "As expected, this matter is difficult. Then I can only learn from your superior skills, fellow Daoist."

Upon hearing this, Ye Kang didn't waste any more words. With a thought, he unleashed 100,000 sword energies of the Hundred Flowers, creating a pink rainstorm that swept everything away.

Amidst the whistling of sword energy, Shangguan Yan's figure appeared exceptionally small.

But he didn't panic. Instead, he threw out several dead logs, which formed a strange symbol in the air.

Despite being a fragile, withered tree, it suddenly unleashed an unprecedented energy. Symbols flashed, and a shield descended with a bang, protecting Shangguan Yan.

Ye Kang launched a full-scale attack, unleashing all his Hundred Flowers Sword Qi. The clanging of swords rang out incessantly, as thousands of swords were unleashed simultaneously, relentlessly bombarding the shield.

But to Ye Kang's surprise, the Hundred Flowers Sword Qi, which was usually invincible, could not cause any damage to the shield!

Ye Kang was stunned for a moment, but then, relying on his rich combat experience, he immediately figured out the reason.

It was the symbols made of withered wood within the shield that were unleashing their power.

That method was not an ordinary martial artist's method at all, but rather an unorthodox one.

Ye Kang immediately looked at Kou Wuji: "Fellow Daoist, why aren't you making a move?"

Kou Wuji understood immediately. He had been bullied for a long time and held a grudge. Now that he had the chance, he naturally used earth magic to break through the shield from underground.

But Shangguan Yan was prepared. He calmly opened his mouth and shouted, "Change!"

The method of turning stone into gold was used simultaneously, instantly transforming the surrounding land into metal.

Kou Wuji crashed into it head-on, and his vision immediately went blank.

"Beast!"

He roared, his voice filled with frustration.

I never expected that my signature skill would be completely countered by this guy. This is really bad luck.

Ye Kang was also stunned for a moment. This Shangguan Yan was indeed impressive, worthy of being the number one person in Wuyin City.

He can master the deadwood script while simultaneously using the Midas touch, operating on two fronts with ease.

No wonder he was so calm.

Does this mean they are certain they can't break through their defenses?

Ye Kang chuckled, then with a flick of his two fingers, the Myriad Flower Sword Qi instantly combined into the Myriad Flower Blooming Sword Array.

As the formation rose, the sword energy roared like shooting stars in broad daylight, and resembled ten thousand flowers blooming simultaneously.

In this pink ocean, flowers bloom and swords rise, ten thousand sword energies combine into a stunning sword strike, directly blasting towards the shield.

Boom!

Ye Kang put away the sword formation, but found that the shield was still there. Although it did not move on the surface, Ye Kang smiled.

"It's become several layers thinner after all, so it seems it can't block every attack."

That's right. The shield looks fine on the surface, but in reality, several layers have been sheared off. Even the symbols made of withered wood have become dim, and some cracks have even appeared on the withered wood.

Shangguan Yan's face paled, and his blood and qi also became somewhat turbulent. He smiled bitterly and said, "Of course, although my spell is clever, it is not invincible."

He honestly acknowledged the shortcomings of this method.

Ye Kang also learned the true name of this method.

It turned out to be a curse.

Although I have never seen it, it is occasionally recorded in ancient books. It is a very niche martial arts tradition with great restrictions on practitioners, so very few people practice it.

But if one can master it, it will become a powerful trump card that far surpasses ordinary martial arts.

Ye Kang couldn't help but nod; at least the strength of this shield had far exceeded his expectations.

However, this farce should come to an end.

Ye Kang suddenly looked up, and a vertical eye suddenly opened between his eyebrows, then emitted a terrifying white light.

It was the demonic power he had just acquired: the third eye!

Like the Three-Eyed Tiger King, the white light shooting from Ye Kang's third eye was full of destructive power and concentrated at a single point, making its penetrating force incredibly terrifying.

In an instant, the originally sturdy shield was destroyed by the white light, leaving a large hole.

Then, just like glass, if even a small part is broken, the entire pane of glass will be filled with cracks.

Ye Kang gave a gentle push, and the shield broke on its own.

As the withered tree fell, Shangguan Yan also spat out a mouthful of blood. After putting away the withered tree, he cupped his hands in a salute to Ye Kang.

"Fellow Daoist is indeed remarkable, but you have overlooked something very important."

Ye Kang's lips curled into a smile, and a rope suddenly appeared in his hand: "Is this what you mean?"

During the previous insect battle, Shangguan Yan lost the life-binding rope, a magical treasure, to Ye Kang.

Ye Kang had sensed something was wrong long ago and handed it over to Ke Yuanzhou for inspection.

Sure enough, Ke Yuanzhou immediately concluded that the treasure was real, but it had been manipulated and subjected to a strange spell related to fate.

As long as the caster activates it, the life-binding rope will turn around and bind the controller.

Now it seems that those mysterious methods of determining fate must also be considered sorcery.

Therefore, Ye Kang already knew what kind of person Shangguan Yan was.

If Kou Wuji was a true villain, then he was undoubtedly a hypocrite.

Upon hearing Ye Kang reveal the secret of the life-binding rope, Shangguan Yan was shocked, and his expression finally became serious.

"Fellow Daoist, you also understand destiny?"

"I don't understand, but I understand people's hearts."

"I see. Fellow Daoist knew that the Life-Binding Rope was problematic, yet you still dared to take it out. Clearly, you have a countermeasure. Why don't you let me see it?"

Shangguan Yan spoke with a sincere expression and a gentle tone, but as he spoke, he had already begun to activate the life-binding rope.

However, it had no effect; the life-binding rope did not react at all.

He couldn't hold back any longer and stared at Ye Kang with a look of surprise and disbelief.

The latter smiled slightly: "The methods of fate are indeed magical. I can't dispel them, but I can seal them off. As long as I completely seal off the fate you left behind and cut off the connection, that will be enough."

This was naturally taught by Ke Yuanzhou, and he had no way to erase it, but he could simply trap it with an array.

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yan held Ye Kang in even higher regard; "There are truly many talented people in this world. I am completely convinced. As for the Life-Binding Rope, I should give it to you as an apology."

After saying that, he silently recited an incantation, and the life-binding technique within the life-binding rope vanished into thin air.

Ye Kang clicked his tongue in amazement.

Although it cannot be controlled, can it bypass the formation and dissipate directly?

Fate is truly amazing.

Ye Kang nodded: "Fellow Daoist, you are very thoughtful. Now, you can make your choice."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shangguan Yan crushed the jade talisman and teleported away with two hundred marks.

It sounds nice, but in reality, he can't truly be carefree. Compared to Wei Changkong, his temperament is far inferior.

Ye Kang didn't care. As long as he could completely separate these two hundred marks, it would be a good thing for him.

Instead of watching the fight between Pang Jinchui and Hua Nongying, he turned his attention to Kou Wuji.

"Fellow Daoist, would you be interested in making a deal?"

Kou Wuji immediately became wary.

This guy is definitely up to no good!

But since Ye Kang had just saved him, he still asked, "What kind of deal?"

“Naturally, we should exchange what we have. I am very interested in your earth escape technique, and I also have three types of advanced escape techniques. You must have seen them before. They are all top-tier and incredibly mysterious, and are by no means inferior to your earth escape technique.”

At this point, Kou Wuji's expression darkened, and his tone became extremely serious.

"You want to exchange your escape techniques?"

"Of course."

"impossible!"
