Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 778 - 395: Crossing the Tribulation with Ease, Gaining a Third-Grade Opportunity (3)

"The might of the Heaven-Dominating Blade Talisman is truly remarkable."

Jiang Fan felt a deep sense of satisfaction regarding his recent attack. Upon triggering the Heaven-Dominating Blade Talisman, he felt a transformation take hold, as if he had become a Sword Dao Grandmaster. He felt possessed by a world-dominating Sword Intent, carrying the aura of a supreme hegemon.

Had he not consciously restrained the killing intent and Sword Intent swirling inside him, that single strike likely would have slaughtered all five Flood Dragons on the spot.

His decision to spare the lives of these five Flood Dragons was driven by a simple goal: he intended to enslave them.

Their strength was undeniably formidable, possessing power on par with Cultivators at the late-stage Nascent Soul.

If he could successfully subjugate them to serve as Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts for the Primordial Talisman Sect, the sect would reap unimaginable rewards.

Boom~

A moment later, Jiang Fan reached out with a massive hand. He seized the five scattered Flood Dragons simultaneously, slamming them down onto the barren island. The impact carved out a series of massive craters, sending debris flying and clouds of dust swirling into the air.

"Human, what is your true objective?"

"If you want to slay us or skin us alive, then do it, but do not expect us to ever surrender."

"If you dare to take our lives, you will suffer a gruesome death once our Ancestor returns."

The five late-stage Nascent Soul Flood Dragons glared at Jiang Fan, their eyes burning with a mixture of fury and terror.

They were well aware that since he hadn't finished them off, he must harbor sinister motives—most likely a desire to make them his slaves.

It was a bitter irony; they had initially planned to enslave humans, only to find themselves facing enslavement by a human instead. This was a reality they found unbearable.

As proud Flood Dragons, the idea of submitting to a frail human was an intolerable humiliation.

"Let us put it to the test first."

Jiang Fan wasted no more breath and triggered the second Life Talisman upon his person—the Heaven-Transforming Staff Talisman.

The talisman instantly reshaped itself into a golden scepter, its surface etched with countless enigmatic runes. A gentle golden radiance bled from the script, raining down upon the ocean like shimmering moonlight.

Gripping the golden scepter, Jiang Fan tapped the air lightly. The staff erupted with a brilliant Buddha Light, bathing the five bloodied Nascent Soul Flood Dragons who were still reeling from the devastating Blade Talisman strike. A look of disorientation began to cloud their savage dragon eyes, as if they were plunging into a bottomless Abyss.

Moments later, Jiang Fan gave the scepter a gentle wave. The talisman dissolved into a cascading rain of golden lotus flowers, each petal bearing the "卍" symbol.

When the first golden lotus touched the lead Flood Dragon, its bleeding stopped instantly. The chaotic Demon Qi roiling beneath its emerald scales was slowly cleansed by the holy Buddha Light. The dragon’s head bowed down against its will, letting out a low, muffled sound that sat somewhere between a cry of pain and a roar of submission.

"What is happening? Why does this warmth fill me?"

"I see now... my previous actions were all wrong."

As the talisman drifted above the five dragons, it projected flickering shadows of their pasts: the innocent moment they cracked their shells in the nest, the agony of eating toxic weeds as hatchlings, and the grief of watching their parents fall to other predatory Flood Dragons...

As these memories played out, the most aggressive of the Flood Dragons suddenly curled into a ball. Large, soybean-sized dragon tears fell from its eyes and hit the sea, triggering ripples of divine Buddha Sound.

Boom~~

Suddenly, marks of golden lotuses manifested on the foreheads of the five Flood Dragons. Their savage features shifted into expressions of profound peace as the Demon Qi within their bodies evaporated.

One after another, they knelt upon the earth, offering their total submission to Jiang Fan.

"It is complete."

Jiang Fan could feel a spiritual tether forming between the souls of the five Flood Dragons and the Heaven-Transforming Staff Talisman. This was the soul imprint unique to the talisman; once the transformation was enacted, there was no turning back.

He felt a surge of genuine shock. This was undeniably more potent than any Enchantment Talisman.

This Power of Transformation fundamentally rewrote the very nature of the target.

These fierce Flood Dragons, who should have been impossible to tame, had been utterly transformed.
