Ignis looked at Jigen and said, "I advise you to cooperate obediently, otherwise, you know what will happen if you really push me."
Jigen closed his eyes.
He had no choice.
"Okay."
After a moment of silence, Jigen opened his eyes, a look of desolation and sadness on his face, "Then let me see how much pain you can bring me!"
Ignis was speechless.
"Well, don't get excited first. Let me finish telling you how I'm going to deal with you."
Ignis took out a black bottle and handed it to Jigen, "You should have guessed what this is, right?"
"This is..."
A look of fear and unease appeared on Jigen's face, "This wasn't put in by me! It has nothing to do with me. Don't put this thing into my body! I don't want to die, I don't want to die yet!"
"This is not a poison placed on your body, but a virus I created. It can quickly corrode the laws in your body and then destroy your soul."
"You will completely fall into the abyss!"
Ignis said lightly, "And I can get huge benefits from it. You have also seen that this is my ability. It has nothing to do with your flames and can even restrain you."
"What do you want to do?" Jigen asked in panic.
"Don't be nervous. Didn't I say it?"
Ignis said, "I want to get something from you, of course, on the premise that you don't violate your oath."
"What thing?"
Jigen breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the corner of his eye was paying attention to the surroundings.
He seemed to be wary of the surroundings.
"Your soul." Ignis stretched out his hand.
Jigen was stunned and then reacted: "Dream on!"
He punched the ground, and the ground instantly shattered, creating a huge pit.
Thick smoke billowed, obscuring the line of sight.
Black runes floated in the smoke.
Chakra began a new round of riots.
These runes represented a part of Jigen's origin.
If this part of the origin was destroyed, then he would directly fall to the eighth rank and fall into a long-term state of weakness.
Jigen did not hesitate to damage himself to protect this part of the origin.
This was the foundation on which he relied to survive.
"I said, this kind of means is meaningless to me."
Ignis said lightly.
Jigen's pupils suddenly contracted. He looked at the staff that had appeared out of thin air next to Ignis.
A feeling of extreme danger surged through his body.
This staff was exactly what had been taken from Jigen.
Ignis grabbed the staff and waved it gently at Jigen.
An invisible ripple rippled out.
"How is this possible?"
Jigen was shocked, "This staff clearly doesn't have any energy fluctuations! What exactly is it?"
"I said it."
Ignis smiled, "I'm here specifically to collect debts."
Infinite power was released from the staff, instantly enveloping Jigen.
Jigen, who had already been drained, spat out several mouthfuls of blood again.
The muscles on his face twisted, as if he was enduring endless pain.
However, he still held on to his soul.
"No, I must stop him!"
Jigen knew that if he continued like this, he would definitely die!
He could only resist desperately.
Even if his soul collapsed!
Even if he died, he would send his soul to the underworld to seek redemption.
"Not bad."
Ignis nodded with satisfaction. Jigen's will was more firm than he had expected.
It seemed that the reason why the other party could run rampant in this area was because of this will.
However, unfortunately, Ignis would not allow this scene to happen.
He took a step.
Lotuses bloomed under his feet.
Invisible ripples spread out, covering Jigen.
"I said, it's useless!"
Jigen shouted sharply.
A dazzling fire lit up on his body.
The flames burned fiercely.
Jigen's aura rose steadily, soon breaking through to the ninth rank.
"Hmm?"
Ignis frowned because he found that his power was limited to around the sixth rank.
Jigen had actually used the fire rules to strengthen himself.
"Heh, your methods are indeed very unique."
Jigen said with a sneer, "But what's the use? What if you're the seventh or eighth rank? In front of the ninth rank, you're still extremely fragile!"
"I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you!"
His eyes flashed with madness and hatred, and he pounced on Ignis.
"Is that so?"
Ignis stood still.
Jigen came in front of him and slammed down with a fist.
"Snap."
A crisp sound came.
Accompanied by a "crack" sound, Jigen's right arm dislocated, and his entire body flew far away.
He stopped after breaking several trees.
"How is it possible? You--" Jigen raised his head, looking at Ignis, filled with shock and disbelief.
The attack just now had reached the strongest blow he could currently use.
Logically speaking, Ignis should have been severely injured or dying.
But "I told you a long time ago that this staff is something that restrains your flames."
Ignis shook the staff, "Have you ever seen its power?"
Jigen struggled to support himself, covering his right shoulder.
He couldn't believe it.
"I don't believe it. Your cultivation method is definitely not like this."
Jigen said, "Your strength should not be much different from mine. Why can you suppress me so easily? What's going on with your methods?"
"Don't forget, there are some people in this world who are naturally gifted, existences you can't imagine!"
"For example..."
Ignis's mouth curled up, "I belong to one of them. My talent is much better than yours."
He slowly raised the staff.
A strand of flame jumped on it, changing with Ignis's movements.
