With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 292 Soul Seal



Lin Fan couldn’t help being surprised when he heard this.

“Several days?” He muttered to himself.

That was a big problem if the system was offline for a few days and now he was starting to regret upgrading it at this time.

After all, he was still in a dangerous place right now…

While he had escaped the fate of having his body stolen by the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor, he was still deep inside of the Hidden Dragon Sect, surrounded by cultivators that were stronger than him.

If they were to learn that he had destroyed the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor, it was hard to imagine what they would do to him…

So he still needed the system to support him.

But now the system was going into hibernation for a few days…

Wouldn’t that mean that it wouldn’t be able to help him when he was in a pinch?

The system then said, “The system will still support the host as normal, but the system’s spirit will be in hibernation. Please do not worry, host. All the system’s functions will operate normally.”

Lin Fan couldn’t help being confused as he asked, “System’s spirit? What’s that?”

But the only response that he received was silence.

Since the system wasn’t responding, there was nothing that Lin Fan could do but continue exploring this place.

After all, it wasn’t just the bolt of lightning alone that the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor had hidden away.

The Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor had lived for so long, so there were many treasures that he had gathered over his long years of life. They were all hidden in this place, Lin Fan just had to find them.

However, that wasn’t a problem at all with the memories of the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor that Lin Fan had.

He was able to easily find all the hiding places and take all the treasures that he had gathered.

But in the end…he was disappointed by these treasures.

There was no doubt that the things that he had were precious and rare items, but…there were just too few of them.

There were only a few hiding spots and each one only contained a single item.

For someone with that level of cultivation who had lived for so long, how could he be this poor?

But when Lin Fan thought about it, he understood why.

He was the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor, so he was able to take whatever he wanted from the sect’s treasury. Since that was the case, the safest place to hide his treasures wasn’t this place hidden in the Hidden Dragon Trial, but rather in the sect treasury.

So there was nothing that was hidden here and it was all left in the treasury.

As for stealing from that treasury…

That was impossible for Lin Fan.

Right now, he didn’t even know how he was going to get out of the Hidden Dragon Sect.

But there was nothing to do by worrying about all of this…

He would have to face it eventually and the longer he stayed here, the more suspicious it would be.

So he chose to leave once he finished organizing all the treasures in this room.

The way out was actually quite close since this trial was designed in a way that Lin Fan couldn’t imagine.

It was actually in the shape of a loop under the Hidden Dragon Sect, so he hadn’t gone as far as he had thought. He had gone around in a circle and where he currently was wasn’t that far away from where he had entered.

If he exited from this place, he would appear in the basement of the Hidden Dragon Sect’s main building again.

He just hoped that he would be able to get out of this place unnoticed and then find a way out in secret.

It was a shame that this hope was dashed right away.

As soon as he came out of the Hidden Dragon Trial, he found a large group of people waiting for him.

They were naturally the sect master and all the elders, along with their disciples.

Seeing that the exit had opened and someone was coming out, all of them immediately focused their minds and turned in that direction to see who it was.

When they saw that it was Lin Fan who came out, they couldn’t help being shocked.

It was clear that they hadn’t expected Lin Fan to come out.

But then the sect master suddenly knitted his brows as he stared at Lin Fan.

In front of everyone, the sect master suddenly kneeled down and said, “Ancestor, welcome back!”

Everyone looked at the sect master in shock as if they couldn’t understand what he was saying, but when they looked more closely at Lin Fan, they also all suddenly fell down onto their knees like the sect master and said, “Ancestor, welcome back!”

Lin Fan looked calm on the surface, but that was just the surface.

He was actually filled with confusion and shock when he saw them all bowing down in front of him, calling him “ancestor”.

What was going on here?

As far as he knew, the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor had never told anyone about his plans to take over bodies, so they shouldn’t have known about what he was doing.

But what Lin Fan didn’t know was that these people already had an idea of what the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor was doing.

It didn’t take much for them to figure out what was happening, especially since they could feel something coming from Lin Fan. This was a feeling that they dreaded very much because…it was something that involved their lives.

There was a long period of silence that had followed after this and the sect master, the elders, and the disciples all started feeling worried.

Finally, Lin Fan said, “Hmm, show me to the treasury.”

All of the Hidden Dragon Sect members were surprised to hear this.

The sect master asked, “Ancestor, is there anything that you need from the treasury?”

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes and said, “Are you questioning me?”

At this, there was a pain that came from the depths of the sect master’s soul. The moment that he felt this pain, there was a deep fear that came from his heart.

With this, the doubts in his heart had been confirmed and he no longer hesitated.

The sect master quickly bowed his head and said, “I don’t dare.”

Then standing up, he led the way to the treasury.

Everyone moved aside for him and Lin Fan when they saw this.

What Lin Fan had done just now was use the Soul Seal that he had obtained from the system.

This Soul Seal was the special item that the system had retrieved from the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor’s soul and had given to Lin Fan.

It was an item that allowed the owner of it to completely control the souls of the ones that the seal was imprinted on.

This was what the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor had used on all the members of the Hidden Dragon Sect when he had created the Hidden Dragon Sect. So in short, all of their lives were in the hands of the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor, which was why they were so afraid of him.

One would think that Lin Fan would be able to easily control the Hidden Dragon Sect with this item, but he had become much more cautious after what had happened with the Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor.𝑜𝑽𝐋xt.𝒸𝗈𝗆

He didn’t know how many people this Soul Seal could affect at the same time, how long it took to activate the Soul Seal, and many other things about the Soul Seal.

If he were to activate it on one person, would the others be able to kill him before he could activate on them?

So if they were fully aggressive against him, Lin Fan had been worried that he would be overwhelmed and killed before he could even use the Soul Seal.

Which was why he had wanted to be cautious earlier.

But that plan had been thrown out the window the moment that they addressed him as “ancestor”.

He knew that he had to adapt to survive, so without hesitation, he fell into the role of “ancestor”. He had also used the Soul Seal to hurt the sect master through his soul just now which scared him into following Lin Fan’s orders.

Seeing that there were still others that had doubts towards him, Lin Fan took the time during their journey to the treasury to punish them. There were looks of pain that appeared on different members of that group as they walked through the sect.

Sometimes one person, sometimes multiple people.

This was Lin Fan’s way of testing the Soul Seal at the same time to see what the limits of it were.

So he was using it with different conditions every single time.

By the end of it, everyone had subdued looks on their faces as they recognized that Lin Fan held their lives in the palm of his hands with the Soul Seal.

The Hidden Dragon Sect ancestor had already left a very large impression on them, one that they would never escape from in this life. So they had no intentions of going against Lin Fan once they confirmed that he had the Soul Seal in his possession.

After all, this was their lives that they were risking if they tried going against him.

Once they were at the treasury, Lin Fan waved them away and headed in alone. No one dared to stop him since they all thought that he was their “ancestor”.

When Lin Fan entered the treasury, he couldn’t help being shocked by what he saw.
