Chapter 2977 Taming Darby (Part One)
Lange and the thirteen members of the spiritual race together with the earth immortal attacked another
earth immortal who took orders from Darby. Drastically outnumbered, the earth immortal was easily
defeated. Lange then took over and controlled him using the Puppet Strings.
With the two earth immortals that they were able to control, the fourteen spirits began to take on the
third earth immortal on Darby''s side. This method proved sessful for the fourteen spirits whom in a
few seconds, had turned all five earth immortals against Darby and into their ves. This meant that
Austin had acquired another five powerful ves to fight for him.
The Puppet Strings was a brilliant secret skill that proved very useful in battle. Any creature targeted
with this skill would be under the control of whoever unleashed this skill. The poor creature, as if
enchanted and possessed, would then be more than willing to serve its new master.
Moreover, his life would be in the hands of the one who employed the Puppet Strings. He wouldn''t
even have the desire to struggle, for the sake of staying alive.
Therefore, the masters at the Earth Immortal Realm would have no choice but to be enved by the
spirits, walking around rather mindlessly, and responding only to themands of their captors.
Seeing that his five subordinates at the Earth Immortal Realm had changed sides and stood behind the
members of the spiritual race, Darby was beyond belief, how easily his subordinates had defected. He
snorted out a furious grunt under his breath.
"What the hell are you all doing? How could you side with those spirits? Are you turning your back on
the Ghostdom now?
Get your asses over here, you sons of bitches,"
he shouted at the five earth immortals.
"Did you go blind or something? Can''t you see that they take orders from me now?" Austin taunted,
throwing his hands in the air with the look of fake confusion.
"Now show him who your master is!"
Austin turned to the five earth immortals who used to be Darby''s subordinates.
"What are you waiting for, low life earthlings? Greet your new master now!"
Lange snapped at the five powerful cultivators at the Earth Immortal Realm.
"Master!"
the five earth immortals said in unison and bowed to Austin respectfully.
Austin''spanions including the Heavenly Majestic Pot and Violet stood aside and watched the
events unfold before them.
"This is preposterous! How dare you bow to your enemies? Wait!
Austin, what did you do to them? Did you cast a spell or some witchcraft shit?
I''m going to tear you to pieces!"
Darby was so pissed off that he pounced on Austin. Obviously, he got carried away by the ebbing
anger in his chest that was getting harder to control.
The Tomber race was indeed a violent, powerful race among whom Darby lived and grew up with. He
was one of the most talented ones who had the greatest potential to lead their race in the future. He
a fierce, massive beast. Soon the two of them were locked in a tense fight.
Darby and Austin were evenly matched in the first ce, so it wasn''t difficult for the former to force the
This was not a surprise. After all, Darby had reached the Golden Immortal Realm, and he could be on
par with the strength of an earth immortal.
"What are you waiting for? Go get more participants to keep under your control,"
Austin ordered the fourteen spirits who were dumbfounded, witnessing the fight between their master
and the ferocious beast.
"Copy, sir. We are on it!"
The fourteen members of the spiritual raceunched attacks on the other participants present in the
area. This time, they had the five earth immortals on their side to help them.
Since the participants were either at the Golden Immortal Realm or the Genuine Immortal Realm, they
were no match for the spirits.
A spirit alone could easily control arge group of people; not to mention there were fourteen of them,
with a huge group of ves on their side.
In no time, all the participants had sumbed to the control of the spirits and became their ves.
"Master!"
Under themand of the fourteen spirits, the participants who had be their ves all bowed
respectfully to Austin.
"What... What are you doing? Noooo! Are you out of your mind?"
The gripping fear inside Darby increasingly tightened around his chest as a chill rose from within,
making it difficult for him to breathe.
Every single participant he came to town with had all be Austin''s ves. They had been
brainwashed to destroy Darby!
Not only did he have to fight alone with no one on his side, he also had to fight the ones who earlier,
had sworn to fight with him.
"Doesn''t it feel lonely on your side? Now, it''s your turn. Stop struggling and be my ve."
Austin shed Darby a mischievous grin.
"What? What are you going to do with me?"
Seeing Austin''s malicious smile, Darby put on his bravest look. Deep inside, though, he was so
frightened that goose bumps ran all over his body.
All of a sudden, Darby turned around, transformed into a wisp of smoke and got out of there as fast as
he could.
Unfortunately for him, Austin had already seen thising. He had ordered the fourteen members of
the spiritual race and the five earth immortals to keep an eye on Darby in case he ran away.
Before Darby could get away, the fourteen spirits and the five masters at the Earth Immortal Realm had
positioned themselves in different ces to block his escape routes. They only had to wait for him to
pass through.
"You fool! You''re not going anywhere!" Lange shouted as he spotted Darby.
He alerted all his ves. In response, the other thirteen spirits and five earth immortals joined him
immediately and formed a wall to block Darby''s way.
