Immortal Pact Shows Its Might in the Moon Palace [Two Chapters Combined]
In the night sky, the bright moon hangs high. From the Great Yu Capital, it can be seen with a simple glance, a place that holds many beautiful dreams for people.
In fact, a small group of people can linger here every day.
In the soft glow, the Moon Palace is made of white jade walls and cold jade steps, the fragrance of Moon Laurel fills the air, various spiritual flowers sway in the colorful glow of the sunset, and colorful butterflies flutter about, as if a myth has come to life.
However, the atmosphere in the main palace was not very harmonious. Qin Ming sat quietly, while the group of Sun Elf did not smile.
There was an awkward silence between them.
Qin Ming drank his tea, ignoring them.
The men of the Sun Elf Race were handsome, and the women were beautiful; both were very pleasing to the eye, but they all had cold faces, making them appear rather sullen.
Qin Ming insisted that neither the legendary Sacred Fiend nor the Treasured Classic could be missing, and he would wait in the Great Yu Capital to see the actual items.
Waiting for him to go deep into the Night Mist World to the Immortal Grave to "make a deal"? Don't even think about it.
"I've only just learned that your Elf Race seems to possess an Life Ancient Tree?" After a moment, Meng Xinghai spoke, breaking the deadlock.
"There's also a celestial tree?" Qin Ming became interested, indicating that the tree's sap should also be able to replenish his essence.
The foreigners looked grim. Was this a escalating, ever-increasing price war with no end in sight? They thought he had asked for enough, but it seemed he wasn't satisfied yet.
Xu Lin said, "That immortal tree disappeared many years ago. At least it can't be found in our area. It's long been a legend."
"That's a real shame," Qin Ming sighed.
The Sun Elf Race believed that things couldn't continue like this and that the Immortal Pact needed to be dissolved as soon as possible.
Xiang Yiwu said, "Are you really here to negotiate? Why are your faces all so dark?"
Qin Ming nodded and said, "I also think so. I was clearly the original victim, forced to retaliate. How come it seems like I owe you something now?"
Across from them, a group of Sun Elf were whispering.
"How about we leave it at that for today?" Qin Ming offered tea to see the guest out.
The foreigners were all visibly shocked, but they had no choice but to remain silent.
He Yan and Chi Yao restrained their emotions, still believing that the "Barbarian" had blasphemed the Solar Yang Divine Maiden.
They were at the Third Realm, and their cultivation was extremely profound among their peers. If they were deep within the Night Mist World, the two of them would definitely have to make a move.
Right now, all their resentment and murderous intent can only be hidden deep in their hearts.
"No rush, everything is negotiable." Xu Lin lowered her stance. The Sun Elf Race had a great reputation deep within the Night Mist World, but that was of little use here.
Qin Ming put down his teacup, sighed, and said, "I injured my vital essence during the battle today. My shoulders are sore, my legs are in excruciating pain, and my back feels like it's about to break."
He tested the faint golden thread left on his hand by the Immortal Pact, and with a slight tug, he immediately received "feedback".
Driven by a mysterious instinct, Li Guang stood up from her seat, her long, silky hair billowing out and scattering brilliant Golden Haze. She herself didn't know why, but she just wanted to go forward.
The group of foreigners were initially taken aback, then their expressions all changed.
They could naturally tell that something was wrong with Li Guang.
She was tall and slender, with graceful and elegant movements. She moved with light steps and even stretched out her delicate white hand, as if she were about to massage the "Barbarian's " shoulders.
Immediately, the group of Sun Elf were about to explode!
Li Guang herself realized something was wrong. She was very clear-headed at the moment, but she had an instinctive urge to submit, which puzzled her.
After she stood up, she had already taken two steps forward. Beneath her thick, long eyelashes, her purple eyes still shone brightly; she hadn't lost her way, but she simply wanted to go forward.
"The Immortal Pact... is truly terrifying!" Xu Lin naturally knew what the situation was, and it was only with the help of Grandmaster Qiong Hui that it was suppressed.
She quickly stepped forward, grabbed Li Guang's fair wrist, and forcibly pulled her back.
Xiang Yiwu and Wu Yaozu were also horrified. They were not thinking about the immediate situation, but rather about how the Immortal Path used such a contract to deal with the strongest warriors, which was truly frightening.
Deep within the Moon Palace, Grandmaster Su Yuxiao, with his deep and unfathomable eyes, carefully observed in the shadows. The methods used in this Ancient Immortal Dojo were indeed extraordinary.
He showed a strange expression, and longed for it in his heart.
Qin Ming experienced the helplessness of ancient strongmen in his first test. It was equivalent to being controlled by others, having one's life and fortune in their hands, and being unable to resist at all.
Before he stopped, he gently tugged at the golden thread again and said, "What happened? Why is the atmosphere so heavy? How can the Moon Palace be without Chang'e dancing? Everyone, relax."
In an instant, Li Guang broke free from Xu Lin, spun around, her golden hair cascading down her back, her skirt billowing, and the Divine Maiden of the Sun Elf Race actually stepped onto the stage to dance.
The group of outsiders were stunned.
This time, Grandmaster Qiong Hui personally got up and came over, placing his hand on Li Guang's shoulder to make her sit down. Then, he pointed a finger, and auspicious light shone in all directions, entering her brow.
"Could it be that you did something?" He Yan asked, finding it hard to accept the fact.
Qin Ming calmly replied, "Don't frame me. You should ask yourselves what you did during the fight. I don't know much about these things. She's currently suffering the consequences of her own actions."
Beside them, the young Sun Elf, including Chi Yao, were all spitting fire in their eyes, but they were helpless, currently at the mercy of others.
Everyone realized that they had far underestimated the terrifying power of the Immortal Pact.
A sheet of "Light Paper" floated in the Consciousness Spirit Light of the Li Guang. Around the Immortal Pact, golden characters were densely packed, like stars in the sky, distributed in every part of the Mental Field, and had merged with the sea of consciousness, becoming one with it.
This page of "Official Document" is not a physical object; it is deeply rooted in Li Guang's consciousness, leaving even Grandmaster Qiong Hui helpless and only able to suppress it slightly.
"Brilliant." Su Yuxiao nodded inwardly. The Immortal Pact could control a person's consciousness; there was no more powerful method of control.
The future Queen of the Sun Elf Race suddenly began to dance, and this incident caused a group of outsiders to lose their composure.
They realized that someone had to accompany Li Guang and Qin Ming when they met, otherwise anything could happen.
This is truly frightening. After the Immortal Pact is established, one cannot control the instinct to obey. What's most terrifying is that even if this bond is broken, it cannot be completely severed.
He Yan, Chi Yao, and the other young Sun Elf felt as if the sky had fallen. The "Barbarian" in front of them were rebellious and deserved to be killed. They should be completely purified by the fire of light.
However, some outsiders secretly envied and longed for that Barbarian.
"In principle, we agree with what you mentioned earlier. However, young brother, you are really asking too much of us. We need to collect legendary-level Sacred Fiend first, and then transport them from the depths of the Night Mist World. How long will that take? It would be better if you came with us to the Immortal Grave." Xu Lin tried to persuade him one last time.
Qin Ming shook his head firmly and clearly stated that he would wait for them in the Great Yu Capital.
"Alright, let's discuss the details with the people from the Immortal Path," Xu Lin said. This was the wish of many members of the Sun Elf Race.
Mainly, they felt this guy was too tough, and might not be as easy to talk to as the people from the Immortal Path.
Upon hearing this, Qin Ming immediately understood that the people from the Immortal Path were also secretly communicating with them. No wonder Xu Lin hesitated when he mentioned the White Tiger Sacred Fiend and the Black Tortoise Sacred Fiend earlier.
He realized that someone was trying to steal his Immortal Path.
He sneered inwardly. This was nothing more than a smokescreen he had set out. He had obtained those two Sacred Fiend back in Black White Mountain, and now that he was bringing them up, there were actually people who wanted to "bite" at them.
"Grandmaster Dog!" Qin Ming gritted his teeth inwardly. He could even be certain that the target was Su Yuxiao.
Because he and Meng Xinghai knew the personalities of several important figures on the moon.
Of course, he didn't completely remove Ling Canghai from the picture.
Qin Ming's temper flared up, and he said, "Fine, then you go talk to the people from the Immortal Path. Don't come looking for me next time."
Old Su Yuxiao is secretly trying to steal the deal, and the Sun Elf Race is also getting involved with him. They want to contact the Immortal Path as well, hoping to compare prices between the two sides?
But Qin Ming wasn't a member of the Immortal Path, so he didn't obey the Grandmaster's orders at all.
"Young friend, what's going on...?" Xu Lin and the others naturally sensed that his attitude had become extremely cold, as if he was no longer willing to talk.
Qin Ming stood up and said, "Li Guang may be your future queen. What is her identity? Your constant arguing about it makes you look down on her and on your own Sun Elf Race."
At this point, Meng Xinghai, Wu Yaozu, and Xiang Yiwu only needed to drink tea, adopt an indifferent attitude, and act as if they didn't care whether to talk or not; that was enough.
Deep within the Moon Palace, Grandmaster Su Yuxiao let out a soft, cold snort. Though it was very light, it still rang out without any attempt to conceal it.
"Achoo!" In the distance, on a jade pavilion, Meng Xinghai's senior Martial Uncle, the Grandmaster of the Esoteric Sect, Lin Yuchen, sneezed on the spot and muttered to himself, "Who's cursing me? Do they want to die?"
Qin Ming confirmed it was indeed Su Yuxiao. Was this Su Yuxiao expressing dissatisfaction with him?
But he's from New Life Path, and he's only here to help out. Is it really necessary for him to obey Immortal Path's orders?
Qin Ming took out a jade token, which allowed him to enter the Ancestral Court of a religion, and played with it in his hand.
Su Yuxiao's pupils contracted; he naturally recognized that this was a special jade tablet from the Six Royals Ancestral Court.
Immediately, he thought of someone else— Lu Zizai.
He had seen him just two weeks ago.
For a moment, his face darkened and his eyes turned cold, but he said nothing more.
However, he had already made up his mind that if the Sun Elf Race possessed the Four Symbols Fiend, he would have to trade for them, thus cutting off the future of the young man Lu Zizai had his eye on.
He sneered inwardly, "Trying to unify the Four Symbols and reshape the Yin-Yang Dao Diagram for New Life Path? Forget it, that path is blocked!"
Although Qin Ming didn't know that Su Yuxiao harbored resentment because of Lu Zizai, he could guess that the old guy was petty and would probably try to steal the prize.
"Old Dog!"
Qin Ming was no longer going to cling to the Four Symbols Fiend, and pretended that he wasn't in a hurry. In fact, having an earth-attribute "add-on" Sacred Fiend was enough.
"Really don't care? I'm probably desperate for it." Su Yuxiao sneered inwardly.
Qin Ming pondered whether he should ask Meng Xinghai's Grandmaster Martial Uncle get involved and negotiate with the Sun Elf Race to raise the price of the Four Saintly Evils.
Without a doubt, with Qin Ming's cold attitude and his intention to back down, the Sun Elf Race realized who the key figure was right now.
This young man was also quite influential, and he wasn't intimidated by the Grandmaster's aura.
Then, surprisingly, the two sides became much more amicable. Although there were some minor disagreements, the atmosphere was much more harmonious than before.
"Why are you getting angry with a teenager?" Deep within the Moon Palace, Grandmaster Ling Canghai glanced at the person opposite him.
Su Yuxiao was furious. He and New Life Path were indeed at odds. His master had been killed by one of New Life Path's patriarchs when he was at the Great Grandmaster Realm, and he had also encountered Lu Zizai. He was full of resentment!
Therefore, he was now somewhat impetuous and, not caring that the person opposite him was a fellow traveler, retorted, "Who doesn't know you like young men?"
Ling Canghai was speechless, staring wide-eyed, really wanting to slap him. Everyone knew that he had married a young Immortal Seed a few years ago.
However, I cannot tolerate your gossip and ridicule of me to my face. What do you mean by this? Ling Canghai made a note of this to me.
Even among Grandmaster, there is no harmony, especially between these two, who are both eager to break through in this Great Wilderness Expansion and become the next generation of Ancestor.
Clearly, in the Pioneering Battle the Immortal Grave and Divine Tomb, they will compete for the rarest immortal resources, making competition inevitable.
After a "friendly" and "friendly" negotiation, Qin Ming was fairly satisfied. As for whether the other party felt that he was enthusiastic and sincere enough, that was none of his concern.
The Sun Elf Race doesn't guarantee they possess the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Sacred Fiend, but they will do their utmost to find them. The two legendary "add-ons" are certainly real; they do exist.
In fact, the Earthwalking Sacred Fiend alone is priceless, enough to persuade Qin Ming to negotiate a deal with them, but who would have the heart to refuse more benefits offered up before them?
In addition, a priceless treasure, the <Sun Immortal Sword Art>, fell into Qin Ming's hands.
He had been eyeing it for a long time, pondering that he might also be able to unleash his own fusion of Heavenly Light and consciousness!
"That's Immortal Method. Can you master it?" Even Grandmaster Qiong Hui looked up, his heart aching with heartache. This was a true Sect-Protecting Ultimate Skill on the Immortal Path.
"It's alright, if I can't master it, I'll pass it on to my son," Qin Ming said nonchalantly.
Deep within the Moon Palace, Su Yuxiao felt that this little brat was subtly implying something, because he was extremely envious of the Sun Immortal Sword Art and wanted to get his hands on it to study it carefully.
But he was clearly overthinking it. This immortal manual was won by Qin Ming through his own skill; how could it possibly be given to him?
"You swear that it will only be passed down within your own lineage and will not be revealed to anyone else," Xu Lin said solemnly.
Qin Ming said, "You've put me in a difficult position. If I can't practice it myself, can't I at least use it to exchange for a copy of the <Waxing and Waning Scripture> to practice?"
As a result, the two sides argued for a long time again.
Qin Ming learned a little about the forbidden technique used by Li Guang, but then gave up on it, feeling that the technique was somewhat inappropriate and not wanting to waste time studying it in depth.
Then, Qin Ming's expression became extremely serious. He brought up the issue of the Immortal Pact and demanded that they not use this method against the people of the New Life Path.
At the very least, this method should be banned in the Night Mist World.
He solemnly warned, "I know it's difficult to actually restrain you, but you must understand that if you dare to act recklessly, Grandmaster Level New Life Path will surely come and breach the Ancestral Land of your Sun Elf Race!"
Qin Ming emphasized that the Immortal Pact should not be passed on to anyone on the Immortal Path, otherwise they would bear the consequences, and things would be far more serious than they imagined!
"I'm not exaggerating. If you really do that, your entire clan will be wiped out!" he said coldly.
Meng Xinghai also spoke up, "Indeed, that's all I have to say. Little Qin meant well by saying that, but your Sun Elf Race should consider this carefully and be extremely cautious!"
Qiong Hui felt a chill run down his spine. Immortal Pact might be nothing in the depths of the Night Mist World, but here it could cause a huge uproar!
Once its impact erupts, it's difficult to predict the magnitude of the Great Calamity it will bring.
In recent days, this Grandmaster of the Sun Elf Race has come to understand that there are many differences between the New Life Evolver and the warriors. The former have already forged their own path and are verifying and absorbing the essence of some unearthed ancient methods, resulting in a clear difference in their systems.
Finally, regarding Qin Ming's question about the sap of the Life Immortal Tree, the Sun Elf Race also agreed, saying that if they found it in the future, they would grant him a share.
Xu Lin breathed a sigh of relief, feeling quite exhausted from discussing issues with this young man.
She felt somewhat helpless; she had to break the Immortal Pact as soon as possible, otherwise, if the boy were to die suddenly one day, Li Guang would also die.
Although this relationship is unlikely to be completely severed, a general break in it will prevent Li Guang from being implicated and dying one day.
This also means that the Sun Elf Race will have to take the initiative to ensure his safety recently.
Even Grandmaster Qiong Hui was getting angry when he thought about all this. What kind of mess is this?!
"Brother Dao..." He even sent a telepathic message to Su Yuxiao, reminding him not to act rashly.
Having sat there quietly for a long time, Qiong Hui naturally sensed the ill will of that Grandmaster from the Immortal Path.
"?" Su Yuxiao was taken aback.
He was lost in thought for a moment. That brat had an unbreakable bond with the Sun Elf Race? At least in the short term, even these foreign races who were grinding their teeth needed to protect this child.
He thought it was outrageous!
Qiong Hui thought to himself, "Do you think I'd want this?"
Afterwards, Qin Ming and his group completely relaxed with the Sun Elf Race, and their relationship seemed to instantly become closer. They even started talking about the various legends of the Night Mist World.
"Have you forgotten the important matter?" Grandmaster Ling Canghai couldn't bear it any longer and had to personally remind him via telepathy.
Qin Ming slapped his forehead, as if he had just remembered, and began to inquire about the truth of the Immortal Grave and the Divine Tomb, as well as various details, whether there were any problems, etc., in great detail.
He mainly asked questions to Li Guang, and Qiong Hui did not stop him, allowing the Immortal Pact to take effect.
Li Guang spoke freely and without reservation, even projecting various landforms using her Consciousness Spirit Light.
The Sun Elf Race were quite unfazed.
Su Yuxiao and Ling Canghai had listened to a lot of bickering all night, mostly about evil spirits. Now that things were finally quiet, they began to seriously learn about the area where the Immortal Grave was located.
Of course, there couldn't be only one source of information in that Beyond the Mundane. In fact, some Ancestor had already personally gone to that area to investigate in secret.
They needed to gather information from multiple sources and verify the details. Throughout history, there has never been a hasty decision in Great Wilderness Expansion; it was better to remain still than to advance rashly.
The Great Opening must be based on stability.
After discussing these matters, Xu Lin asked in a rather friendly manner, "Young man, have you recently had any disagreements with anyone, or anyone who is dissatisfied with you?"
"Yes!" Qin Ming immediately put down his teacup.
Little Wu watched the Entire Process and thought to himself, "Ming Ge really hit the jackpot this time!"
When Meng Xinghai and Xiang Yiwu saw Qin Ming presenting the list to them so directly, they were speechless.
Qin Ming solemnly informed me, "The Cui Household and Li Household families are extremely hostile towards me. There are also a few stubborn 'old fogies' on the Immortal Path who always want to restore the glory of the ancient immortals who ruled the Night Mist World; they may also be dissatisfied with me and harbor malicious intentions."
Su Yuxiao thought to himself, "I haven't left yet!"
Ling Canghai was surprised and chuckled softly, "Is there really such an old man as Deng? Forcibly suppressing one side is indeed not good. Healthy competition among all paths, a hundred schools of thought contending, and a myriad of ideas blooming—that's the spring of the revival of all methods, which can promote a major explosion in all paths."
Su Yuxiao responded indifferently, saying, "If Lao Cao comes out of seclusion, he might want to have a friendly chat with you."
The group of Sun Elf Race were quite troubled. They thought this was no ordinary youth. He was being targeted by the Millennium Aristocratic Family and had been given unfriendly looks by the old guys on the Immortal Path. The fact that he was still alive was extraordinary.
They thought to themselves, "This guy's a real troublemaker!"
Of course, if someone were an honest person who wouldn't utter a word even after being hit three times, they probably wouldn't be alive today, nor would they possess such extraordinary abilities.
They had no choice but to serve as bodyguards for a period of time, enduring considerable hardship, until the Sacred Fiend was delivered.
Thinking about these things makes the younger generation, such as He Yan and Chi Yao, want to vomit blood.
"Alright, we've disturbed you tonight, we'll take our leave," Xu Lin said, and the group of Sun Elf rose, preparing to depart.
If they had a choice, they really wouldn't want to be around this boy. Add to that the bald guy next to him, and that other boy who was wider than a door panel, and they really found him annoying. There wasn't a single one of them they liked.
Even the refined and scholarly Old Meng was viewed with an extremely negative impression by them.
"Wait, I have something to ask of you." Qin Ming stopped him.
Immediately, they saw that Li Guang walked straight toward him.
Qin Ming patted the soft couch beside him and said, "Sit."
"You audacious madman!" Chi Yao, He Yan, and the others were on the verge of a breakdown. This guy was incredibly rebellious; so many of them were still here, and he dared to act like this?
"Don't misunderstand," Qin Ming waved to the group of people.
Li Guang, with purple eyes like jewels in the night sky, gracefully walked over. The Immortal Pact revealed its terrifying power, capable of influencing a person's fate.
"Breath in fire," Qin Ming demanded.
"What outrageous words!" A group of Sun Elf glared angrily.
"Please summon the Sunfire," Qin Ming corrected them, explaining that they were simply using the tribe's special firelight to practice their skills.
Li Guang did as she was told, and even performed beyond her usual skill, dancing the Divine Dance of the Sun Elf Race used to pray for light. In an instant, her long golden hair flowed like a waterfall, her round and straight legs swayed, her skirt fluttered, her eyes were lively, and her dance was extremely graceful and beautiful.
Large swaths of golden flames shot out from her body and landed on Qin Ming.
Before him, a palm-sized Li Fire Furnace gradually solidified, a manifestation of the Extraordinary Art skill and its essence, taking shape.
He had mastered the Li Fire Scripture to a legendary level, which led to the formation of this furnace, which many people at higher levels had never seen before.
Now, bathed in the Sunfire, it has become even more wondrous, with inexplicable patterns interwoven on the furnace, and nine divine birds appearing.
"Everyone, if you can, please lend a hand," Qin Ming said, his thirst for the Sunfire being more than enough.
He Yan, Chi Yao, and the others were the first to strike, thinking: If we can't burn you to death, we'll at least hurt you!
However, to their astonishment, they discovered that all the Sunfire had been absorbed by the Furnace Body, transforming it into something resembling a real object.
Qin Ming was overjoyed, and then he displayed a Extraordinary Art again— the Golden Cicada Scripture.
A cicada appeared, and he put it into the furnace; this was to Li Fire Refines Golden Silkworm.
Inside the furnace, the incessant chirping of cicadas astonished everyone present.
"Would you like me to ignite your fire as well? I have a small amount of Sun True Fire within me," Grandmaster Qiong Hui asked calmly.
The difference between "the Sunfire" and "the Sun True Fire" is only one word, but the gap is enormous.
Qin Ming looked at Meng Xinghai, and seeing that the latter indicated he was alright, he nodded and said, "Okay!"
A moment later, the furnace almost melted down, but it was Nirvana, becoming even more vibrant and dazzling, just like a real Furnace Body.
"The Southern Blazing Fire is about to appear..." Qiong Hui exclaimed in surprise.
At the same time, Qin Ming also put a Golden Silkworm into the furnace.
"All three special extraordinary skills are about to reach the legendary level?" Meng Xinghai's senior martial brother, Lin Yuchen, murmured to himself after witnessing this scene from outside.
Qiong Hui abruptly stopped, no longer helping him to ignite the fire. He didn't really intend to help; he just wanted to test the young man's abilities. He hadn't expected the young man to actually be able to withstand that kind of fire.
At this moment, Qin Ming was shocked, because he clearly felt that words were appearing inside the Furnace Body, densely packed, and such a strange thing had actually happened!
I'm appealing for guaranteed monthly votes. I hope all readers will support me. I'll be voting around the beginning of the month. Thank you!
