Chapter 289 - Chapter 289: Three Thousand Daos, Grand Bewitchment Art

"Join in?"

Huo Meier's delicate figure trembled as she gazed at Domain Ruler Mandala, whose flushed face, misty eyes, and tear-streaked cheeks still bore traces of recent torment. Huo Meier's heart thudded violently.

Wasn't this... too stimulating?

Her enchanting peach blossom eyes glanced at Zhou Yi, hesitating briefly before stepping forward to appear directly before him.

She had made her choice.

A fragrant breeze wafted toward Zhou Yi, and before he could fully indulge in the intoxicating aroma, the alluring beauty reached out with her jade-like hands, wrapping them around his waist.

"Please have mercy, Heavenly Sovereign."

Huo Meier pressed her sinuous, snake-like body tightly against his chest, her soft and tender curves igniting a fire within Zhou Yi.

"What is your name?"

Zhou Yi's large hand quietly rested on the woman's slender waist, its supple texture making it hard to let go.

"This humble one is Huo Meier," she replied with a captivating smile.

"Additionally, I am also the Grand Commander of the Great Havenlaw Army."

"Truly bewitching!"

Zhou Yi nodded secretly, his hand sliding beneath her robes. With a playful grin, he said:

"I never expected the Grand Commander of the Great Havenlaw Army to be such a seductive enchantress. It seems your skills are extraordinary!"

"Before the Heavenly Sovereign, how could I dare to boast?"

Huo Meier's gaze flicked to Mandala, who seemed lost in a dreamlike trance, before glancing downward at Zhou Yi with a meaningful expression.

"Your abilities may be ordinary, but your broad embrace is what I truly admire. I like men with generous hearts."

Zhou Yi laughed heartily. He never spoke without purpose.

He believed that practice was the sole criterion for testing truth.

Thus—

Before drawing any conclusions, he had already conducted a thorough field investigation.

Zhou Yi stepped away, placing Mandala to the side. Then, supporting Huo Meier's waist, he turned her around so she faced away from him.

Huo Meier leaned against the Domain Ruler's throne, glancing back at him with a flirtatious smile.

"Heavenly Sovereign always likes to bully others..."

Zhou Yi grinned, lifting her skirt to her waist. One hand gripped her slender waist while the other slid beneath her garments, seizing the tender softness. He whispered in her ear:

"Let me tell you a secret... your Domain Ruler enjoys being bullied by me."

"What?"

Huo Meier's eyes widened in disbelief, glancing at the sleeping Mandala.

Though she didn't want to believe it, the earlier scene—and her current predicament—were strikingly similar.

Hiss—

Who would have thought the Domain Ruler was like this?

Fortunately, Mandala seemed exhausted and had fallen asleep. If she discovered this secret, would she silence them both?

Zhou Yi pinched Huo Meier's supple curves, placing gentle kisses along her swan-like neck.

"Your Domain Ruler is sleeping now... you wouldn't want to wake her, would you?"

Huo Meier's body trembled, the thought of Mandala waking up making her heart pound.

She turned back, eyes pleading.

"Heavenly Sovereign... can we go somewhere else? As long as it's somewhere private... you can do whatever you want to me... mm..."

Before she could finish, her eyes widened, her soft lips parting slightly. Her delicate hand clamped onto her own wrist, biting down hard to suppress any sounds.

Zhou Yi's sudden assault caught her off guard.

She resembled a wounded white swan, arching her graceful neck and stifling her pain to avoid alerting the hunter.

Time passed slowly.

While the outside world roiled with the emergence of the Ancient Haven Palace, countless powerhouses converging on the Great Havenlaw Domain, Zhou Yi enjoyed a leisurely reprieve.

Happy days always passed quickly.

By dawn, Mandala woke to find herself nestled against Zhou Yi's powerful chest. Recalling his overwhelming strength, a shiver ran through her heart.

Yet there was another woman in his arms—Huo Meier, her own direct subordinate and Grand Commander of the Great Havenlaw Army.

Memories of the previous night resurfaced.

"That bastard!"

Mandala's petite mouth opened, sinking her teeth into Zhou Yi's shoulder.

"Ow!"

Zhou Yi feigned pain. With his Heavenly Supreme physique, her bite couldn't possibly hurt him. He pinched her delicate face, teasing:

"Are you a little puppy now, biting people?"

"Who's a puppy? And who loves biting the most?" Mandala retorted, her eyes flashing playfully as they drifted toward Huo Meier.

Zhou Yi scratched his nose, feeling slightly embarrassed.

He hadn't expected to leave behind such obvious evidence.

"Domain Ruler!" Huo Meier called out softly, avoiding Mandala's gaze.

A sharp pain welled up from below.

"I don't blame you!"

Mandala waved her small hand dismissively, casting a venomous glare at Zhou Yi.

It was all his fault.

"As compensation, I'll give you both a gift."

Zhou Yi smiled at the two beauties in his embrace, pressing a finger against Huo Meier's forehead.

Grand Bewitchment Art!

One of the Three Thousand Daos of the Eternal World.

A bewitchment art that could enchant enemies, leaving them unable to extricate themselves.

It was a reward he had obtained from Huo Meier—taken from the people, and now returned to the people.

After all, last night had been... quite taxing on Huo Meier. Despite her Supreme physique and powerful recovery abilities, the repeated cycles of healing and injury were still arduous.

With the Grand Bewitchment Art now imprinted upon her soul, Huo Meier's mind sank into deep comprehension, her eyes shimmering with newfound understanding.

The Grand Bewitching Art, as one of the Three Thousand Great Daos of the Eternal World, though not highly ranked, encompassed boundless mysteries and formidable power.

Huo Meier would likely need considerable time to fully comprehend its profundities.

Mandala's large golden eyes widened, gazing at Zhou Yi, hoping to see what gift he had prepared for her.

Zhou Yi picked up Mandala, took a step forward, and disappeared from the palace chambers.

Having obtained the Ancient Haven Palace's secret key, Zhou Yi had already refined it, allowing him to freely enter and exit the palace at will.

This time, he had brought Mandala to seek out her true form.

"This is... the Ancient Haven Palace?"

The moment Mandala entered, she sensed a familiar aura. Her eyes lit up with excitement—after all, she had lived in the Ancient Haven Palace for a long time in the past.

"Indeed."

Zhou Yi, having gained full control over the Ancient Haven Palace, was intimately familiar with everything within.

With a gentle nod toward Mandala, he waved his sleeve, and endless eerie light burst forth, condensing into a dark and bewitching ancient divine flower before her.

Endless tendrils of dark light emanated from the flower, swallowing the surrounding light into its depths.

The sudden appearance of the ancient divine flower immediately drew Mandala's attention.

For this was none other than the Ancient Mandala Flower—her true body.

The flower's core radiated a terrifying aura, exuding extraordinary power.

Gazing at the bewitching blossom before her, the usually cold and indifferent girl couldn't hide the ripple of emotion flickering across her face.

With the utmost care, she stroked the flower's petals. The Mandala Flower did not resist her touch; instead, its dark light patterns shimmered more vividly, as if gradually awakening.

"Thank you."

Mandala turned to Zhou Yi, her voice filled with rare solemnity.

"Fuse with it quickly."

Zhou Yi gently ruffled Mandala's small head.

Mandala gave a faint smile. Without further hesitation, she stepped toward the flower, which opened its petals wide, welcoming her into its heart.

Dark radiance unfurled endlessly from the Mandala Flower. Mandala's figure grew increasingly illusory until she fully merged into the blossom.

Buzz!

The instant they fused, a pillar of dark light tens of thousands of feet high shot into the sky. Terrifying spiritual energy raged outward, exuding an indescribable pressure.

Heaven and earth seemed to tremble as faint sanskrit chants echoed from the void.

The bewitching flower swayed gracefully, as if dancing. With every undulation, the entire world quivered gently.

Zhou Yi observed this power, a trace of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

This spiritual pressure... had already surpassed the Greater Earthly Supreme level.

It was...

Perfected Earthly Supreme!

Zhou Yi's gaze remained fixed on the towering pillar of dark light. Within, the bewitching flower rapidly expanded, swelling to a size of nearly ten thousand feet in mere moments.

From afar, the flower's tendrils stretched out like writhing serpents. The once enchanting bloom now exuded a terrifying, primordial ferocity.

At this moment, the Mandala Flower appeared far more fearsome than any ancient beast.

Dark petals swayed elegantly, releasing billions of strands of eerie light. Thunderous rumbles echoed through the heavens, space distorted, and streaks of dark lightning descended from the skies, converging upon the colossal flower.

The celestial phenomena persisted endlessly.

Until, at a certain moment, a tidal wave of spiritual energy surged across the land like a flood, all of it absorbed by the flower.

When the final drop of spiritual energy vanished, the enormous bewitching flower rapidly shrank.

A few breaths later, it returned to its normal size.

The petals peeled away, revealing a delicate figure curled within.

Mandala's form remained that of a petite young girl, as before.

Yet when she lifted her head, her once golden eyes had transformed into fathomless pools of dark radiance—like twin miniature black holes capable of ensnaring souls.

A black gown of eerie light wove itself around her petite frame. She stepped from the flower's core, while the Mandala Flower shrank into a small black blossom, resting in her palm.

Without hesitation, Mandala opened her mouth and swallowed the extraordinary black flower. Only then did she stretch lazily, revealing a startling curve.

Zhou Yi's eyes brightened. He supported Mandala's waist, turning her to face away from him.

"What are you doing?" Mandala asked, her small face puzzled.

"Congratulations on advancing to Perfected Earthly Supreme."

Zhou Yi smiled, his tone utterly serious.

"I need to run a diagnostic test to make sure your fusion is flawless."
