Chapter 984: Chapter 958: Contract and Obedience (Double-Length)

However, even though there were many of these strange creatures, Ye Tian’s attention was not on them.

These Alien Species were easily extinguishable for him, not worth his concern.

Ye Tian now just wanted to see what choice these three mages would make.

For him, killing these three Temple Mages held no value.

But if they could guide him to the core area of the All Gods Temple, it would save a lot of time.

Therefore, he hoped these three mages would make the right choice.

Of course, even if they were unwilling to lead the way, Ye Tian would try his own method to view the memories of these three mages to acquire the location of the All Gods Temple.

Ten seconds quickly passed.

“Time’s up,” Ye Tian said.

“We… will not betray the All Gods Temple, nor the Main God! If you dare offend the Divine, you will surely suffer Heavenly Punishment!” Two of the mages shouted angrily, raising their magic wands.

“Swish!”

The two magic wands simultaneously emitted a strong light.

“Buzz…”

A burst of Space Power erupted, enveloping the bodies of these two.

“Trying to escape?”

Ye Tian raised an eyebrow, pushing forward with his right palm.

“Boom!”

The Space Power just released by the two mages was instantly dissipated!

At the same time, a tremendous force struck their arms.

“Crack!”

The arms holding the wands of the two mages were severed together!

“Ah…”

They let out a miserable scream.

“Whoosh…”

The next second, a wave of red fire surged towards the two of them.

In the blink of an eye, the flame wave devoured them both.

“Sizzle…”

Amid the sound of burning, the miserable cries of the two mages mixed in, extremely horrifying.

Then, the Phoenix returned to Ye Tian’s side.

Ye Tian focused his gaze on the last surviving Temple Mage.

This person was the same middle-aged mage who hadn’t acted initially.

At this moment, he was trembling like a sieve, his face pale, full of fear.

He remained motionless earlier… seems he was a bit shaken.

“Only you are left, what’s your choice?” Ye Tian asked, looking at the middle-aged mage.

Hearing Ye Tian’s voice, the middle-aged mage trembled, as if just coming back to his senses.

His eyes hesitated, then turned resolute, shouting, “I signed a contract with the temple! If you can remove this contract’s influence on me, I will be willing to lead the way!”

“Otherwise, I’m dead either way!”

“And without me guiding you, it’s nearly impossible to find the All Gods Temple!”

Hearing these words, Ye Tian squinted slightly.

Judging from this mage’s hysterical state, this was likely his last struggle.

“Signing a contract with the All Gods Temple means a mark remains within. Betraying the temple triggers the contract, leading to sudden death,” Ye Tian thought.

This situation was quite common before.

It’s normal and reasonable for the All Gods Temple to make such contracts with these mages.

As for dissolving the contract… the principle should be similar to erasing a mark.

Then… just use Devouring Divine Fire.

Ye Tian looked at this mage, smiling, “No problem, I can help you remove this contract.”

“Y-you don’t spout nonsense! This is the All Gods Temple’s contract, do you think it can be dissolved at will!?” The mage shouted angrily, forehead veins bulging, eyes bloodshot.

Faced with such a dire situation, he was somewhat frantic.

On one hand, he desperately wanted to survive; on the other, he felt hope was slim!

“If you don’t believe me, then you still have only one path to death,” Ye Tian said with a flick of his eyebrow, “Trust me, and there’s a glimmer of hope.”

The mage was taken aback.

He knew, what Ye Tian said was true.

He and the other Temple Mages were sent here because the Main God wanted to punish them, sending them to their deaths!

Now, he had no choice but to trust Ye Tian!

The mage took a deep breath, flying straight to Ye Tian.

Arriving in front of Ye Tian, he threw the magic wand in his hand to the ground.

“You should have been this decisive earlier,” Ye Tian said.

Then, he reached out his right hand, grasping the mage’s head.

“Swish!”

A faint red aura welled up from his palm, entering the mage’s body.

The mage’s body shuddered.

Then, the power of the Devouring Divine Fire entered his body.

Through Divine Sense, Ye Tian could see that there was indeed an extremely faint aura inside the mage’s body.

This aura covered the surface of the mage’s heart.

“So the contract is completed by crushing the heart, how primitive,” Ye Tian thought with a glint of contempt in his eyes.

Such a contract was overkill for the Devouring Divine Fire.

As soon as the devouring power made contact, the aura covering the surface of the heart was instantly erased.

“Done,” Ye Tian said.

The mage was stunned.

He didn’t expect the process to be so fast.

“I’ve already erased the contract, prepare to lead the way,” Ye Tian said to the mage, “What’s your name?”

“I-I am Master Kong Yan,” the mage replied in a daze.

After that red aura entered his body, he only felt comfort, with no other sensations.

As for whether the contract with the All Gods Temple was removed, he was clueless.

But now… he could only trust Ye Tian.

After all, his death wouldn’t benefit Ye Tian either.

“Caw caw caw…”

Just as Kong Yan was still in a daze, the strange creatures densely packed in this area of Heaven and Earth all seemed to be summoned, suddenly emitting a piercing cry!
