To Be Celestial's Emperor II
The Soul Slave Formation
Zhen Yuan wiped away the sweat dripping on his forehead, he had not expected to extort information from the demon general to be this difficult. Even though the punishment and torture inflicted by Zhen Yuan was already limited to humanity, the demon still kept his mouth shut.
“You color is so hard to speak then I am forced to subdue you by force!” Zhen Yuan said.
In his hand appeared an elaborate formation sign, he then sent the mark right on the forehead of the demon general making the demon general roar in pain. His screams grew stronger until within 5 minutes, the demon general fell unconscious due to the pain he felt.
Zhen Yuan sent out his spiritual mark right above the formation which he then retrieved a small knife from his storage bag. The young man scratched his index finger using a knife until it bled and then his blood dripped on the formation.
Instantly also the formation on the forehead of the demon general shone brightly before it finally dimmed and disappeared. There were no more formation marks on the demon general's forehead.
The formation that Zhen Yuan instilled was none other than the Soul Slave formation. It would seal the demon's soul by placing the user's special mark as well as his blood on the formation.
Zhen Yuan left the demon there, while he returned to meet the minister Yan Jie.
“Thank you for saving me” Zhen Yuan was grateful when there was a minister Yan Jie otherwise he might have been swallowed alive by the Whale.
“No need to thank me.” Minister Yan Jie shook his hand. “How's your doing? Is it recovered?” ask again.
Zhen Yuan nodded, “My strength is back, I will probably go to continue the hunt of the demon nation!”
Minister Yan Jie shook her head slowly, “You think highly of this world even facing the demon nation on the frontline alone. If only the old men were willing to lower their arrogance and greed to the post, perhaps this nation would have a new chapter.”
Zhen Yuan inwardly laughed listening to the words Yan Jie considered himself a noble person. “I'm too busy to save the world. Besides being able to be a source of strength, the demon nation is suitable to be a slave!”
When he placed the soul slave seal, Zhen Yuan thought back to forming a powerful army. It was impossible to continue to be confined in the Origin plain. When he left the Origin plain, it would be very difficult for him to gain a foothold in a new place unless he had a strong army.

The next day, a red tinge of sunlight entered the dense leaf crevices in the depths of the Magical Beast Forest. A magnificent palace stood there. Inside the palace, there was a huge hall room with a golden throne at its center.
The position of the golden throne was so high that there were dozens of small stairs made of marble under it. As for the hall, it was divided into two rows, right and left which each had seats totaling 5 and 6 pieces. Of the 11 seats, only one seat on the right is empty.
The seat belonged to none other than the demon general that Zhen Yuan had captured. The news of the disappearance of the demon general spread out and reached the ears of the Demon King. He was so shocked that none of his demon generals had ever been caught like this time. Moreover, that demon general was only ordered to look for Zhen Yuan, a child who had not even reached the Mortal realm.
“Yes majesty, it is possible that he met with great guards or strong human cultivators!” one of the people on the left said.
“If Zhen Yuan is right as described by our ally then I may have met him” the person next to him also added.
Demon King glanced curiously, “Then how is Zhen Yuan's power? Does he really have the power to defeat and capture demon generals?” Although he didn't want to admit it, Zhen Yuan worried him a little.
The demon shook his head, “How could the demon general be defeated by that child! Even when I met him, the boy ran away in fear. His strength was probably equivalent to that of a Mortal Master cultivator at most.”
“Then why didn't you catch him?” the other demon general asked.
“That's because the boy has speed! If I'm not mistaken, he has a lightning element like the demon general who disappeared”.
“Or maybe the demon general didn't disappear but was somewhere to pick up the lightning element from the boy!” other demons argue.
