A New Covenant for the Present World
The Demon Ancestor's own son—is this level of demon really so low in seniority? He's incredibly strong, and he's actually coming after him.
Wang Xuan frowned and said, "I'm fine myself. At worst, I'll fight him to the death and use my passion to fight against demons. But I'm afraid he'll target my parents and ordinary people."
Fang Yuzhu nodded and said, "New Rules, new constraints. Let's set the first one: Transcendent Immortals and demons must not harm ordinary people without cause."
Wang Xuan immediately cast a grateful glance. With this Rules set, everything else was much easier to discuss, and the world would be basically at peace, leaving him with no more worries.
As for the battle for the extraordinary, who's afraid of who? Time is on his side. Anyone who wants to target him, feel free to come at me!
Zhang Daoling nodded and said, "Alright, let's start recruiting people. Let all the powerful figures behind the Great Curtain reveal their true forms and participate. Only after all parties have discussed and agreed on it will it be effective."
Then, he looked at Wang Xuan and said, "You initiated this, so what's the explanation? Is it called the Code of All Races, or named the Universal Values of Modern Immortals and Demons, or perhaps..."
"What kind of lousy name is this?" Wang Xuan seriously doubted Old Zhang's taste. He said, "Is there any other explanation? Let's just call it the New Testament, to correspond with your old testament."
Old Zhang's hand trembled, and with a clang, the bronze mirror hidden in his sleeve fell out. He quickly put it back in his pocket and sighed, "Someone has actually made a new covenant!"
Wang Xuan keenly noticed that the beautiful Female Daoist practitioner beside him also paused for a moment, her beautiful eyes widened, her red lips parted slightly, and she was slightly dazed.
"Wait a minute, what's the situation with the Old Testament? And is there a problem with me bringing up the New Testament?" Wang Xuan asked cautiously, feeling guilty.
"It's nothing, just some random rumors, all sorts of hearsay. Don't worry, it's just a name, what's the big deal? For example, I think I've heard one of them, that a girl once said she would do this or that."
"Why don't you just say it?" Wang Xuan glared at him.
"Break the vow, get married, what else can you do?" Zhang Daoling laughed, then added, "There are a lot of old monsters inside, and all sorts of vows. For example, there's a shameless old demon who said he'll marry whoever makes a new covenant. Do you want to marry him?"
Wang Xuan didn't want to ask anymore; he got goosebumps all over his body.
"Am I right, Fairy Fang?" Although Old Zhang was refined, his smiling expression looked rather irritating.
Surprisingly, the Female Daoist practitioner, who was usually Clear and Transcendent and ethereal with a gentle smile, glared at him fiercely without saying a word.
Moreover, Fang Yuzhu didn't say a word, but directly took action, activating the Ascension Divine Ship, and a large amount of light rain fell down.
A blurry shadow appeared on the curtain, and she made contact with the area behind the Great Curtain through the magical ship. Soon after, her true form appeared in the rain of light.
Old Zhang also took action, holding the bronze mirror and freezing the void. The area blurred, and a corner of the curtain appeared. He was also trying to contact his main body.
Both of them looked solemn and used their Divine Sense to transmit information. It took them a long time to finish communicating.
They both nodded, and their respective main bodies would go to contact the various factions.
Undoubtedly, each immortal realm possesses unique communication methods enabling rapid contact. Otherwise, why would those peerless experts be able to know immediately whenever a supreme treasure appears? It's because their information acquisition speed is extremely fast.
"Let's wait and see. Once we have news, we'll bring some of the old guys' phantoms here for a discussion," Zhang Daoling said.
It wasn't a short time; three hours later, which is six hours in the Real World, a blurry corner of the curtain finally appeared in the cave, and there was feedback.
"Yes, that's fine. Some of the most powerful experts are willing to participate," the Female Daoist practitioner said.
The so-called peerless experts refer to the top three masters in a celestial realm. The scale of the curtain corresponding to the mortal world is so great that it means that although there are not many masters of this level, there are not a very limited number of them either.
"You're a participant too, so lend a hand," Zhang Daoling said, gesturing for Wang Xuan to God Slaying Banner. With another Peerless Exotic Treasure, he and the Female Daoist practitioner could make things a little easier.
Upon hearing this, Wang Xuan immediately refused. He didn't want to run into those old monsters. There were already quite a few people eyeing him, so he should reduce his exposure.
Zhang Daoling was speechless, then shook his head and said, "Why are you still keeping a low profile? Do you really think they don't know you? Ever since you first set up a fake fishing line and hook at Golden Peak Mountain and tricked Zheng Yuantian's camp, they almost all know what's going on with you now."
Wang Xuan remained silent, but upon closer reflection, he realized that some secrets had indeed been made public long ago. Those old guys were ruthless, and they must have investigated quite thoroughly.
"Look, you're with the two of us now, which means we're showing some kind of attitude, that we're intentionally protecting you, which is actually a good thing," Old Zhang said.
"It's too high-profile, I refuse!" Wang Xuan rejected the offer. Even if some people had ideas, they would only do so in private. He didn't want to appear in front of them.
"Then you should wait behind me, a few meters away, so they won't be able to sense you. Don't stand too close," the Female Daoist practitioner said.
"Thank you, fairy!" Wang Xuan thought that Fang Yuzhu was more reliable, while Old Zhang was a bit of a liar!
"Lend me your God Slaying Banner," the Female Daoist practitioner said. She also felt that relying on the Ascension Divine Ship and Zhang Daoling's bronze mirror was a bit too much.
Wang Xuan was immediately alarmed. There was a silver substance on his flag. Would it attract her attention and lead to a closer examination of him?
However, since he himself was no longer involved, it would be somewhat unreasonable not to borrow the God Slaying Banner.
"Wait a moment!" Wang Xuan said, his spirit entering the earth of his life, pulling up the small flag stuck in the ground, and frantically urging the silver substance into the depths of the earth of his life, he wanted to release it.
Old Zhang And Fang Yuzhu are both quite good, but he is still a little worried that something might go wrong, so it's better to be cautious.
The earth element in the birth chart is thick and heavy, which indeed absorbed all the silvery substances, and the delay was not very long.
His spirit and body became one, and a small flag appeared in his hand. Then, in front of the two of them, he activated a piece of Demon Immortals immortal bone, drawing in a large amount of Mysterious Factor into the flag.
The two men were speechless. "Are you trying to cram at the last minute? What were you doing just now?" They, being the kind of people they were, naturally sensed that he harbored a secret.
But who among them doesn't have secrets? They are all extraordinary people, otherwise they wouldn't have reached this level, looking down on all the immortals.
Fang Yuzhu took the God Slaying Banner and immediately sensed an unusual residual aura. It was somewhat peculiar, and the residual substance was of an extremely high level.
Without changing her expression, she planted the God Slaying Banner on the Ascension Divine Ship and began to activate the two extraordinary treasures.
Old Zhang also moved, holding a bronze mirror and shining it on the Ascension Divine Ship, causing a rain of light to appear inside the ship, forming a vortex.
The two exerted their strength together, and golden ripples formed in the bamboo boat, quickly creating a vast golden ocean. Within the bamboo boat, the hazy outline of a grand curtain was visible.
Then, the light rain rose, and a bright moon appeared on the sea.
"Qi Teng, you've arrived." Zhang Daoling spoke, Dao Body appeared in the Golden Sea Divine Moon, none other than Qi Teng, the Ancestor of Celestial Immortals.
In the Divine Moon, the man nodded; he was indeed a peerless master.
Wang Xuan remained silent. He had killed Zhou Chong, the enemy's subordinate, who had repeatedly plotted against him with the Soul Locking Bell in his hand.
"Qi Yi, it's been a long time," Old Zhang said again.
Who was summoned this time? The Demon Ancestor, the outline of a man, was very blurry. He was surrounded by surging demonic energy that blotted out the sky. He was a truly unparalleled demon.
Wang Xuan was wary; yet another formidable and powerful figure had arrived.
"Brother Zheng, it's been many years since we last met, and you're even more charming than before," Old Zhang said with a smile.
The third person appeared, dressed in black armor that covered even his face; he was the peerless expert Zheng Yuantian.
Wang Xuan was speechless. He really wanted to ask, "Old Zhang, are you doing this on purpose? Why did you invite all my mortal enemies?"
Then a fourth person appeared, holding an ancient banner, surrounded by chaotic energy, his power overwhelming the starry sky. He had white hair and deep eyes, and was Heng Jun, the only peerless expert who had obtained the supreme treasure.
He's incredibly dangerous; he could just tear open the Great Curtain and walk right out!
Wang Xuan wanted to beat up Old Zhang, so he hired people who were all outrageous and wanted him dead.
"Old Heng, you're really something! You've managed to get your hands on a priceless treasure. It makes me sigh. People's fortunes can vary so much." Old Zhang sighed.
"Is it really the New Testament?" Heng Jun asked calmly.
Demon Ancestor Qi Yi spoke from the depths of the endless demon clouds, revealing snow-white teeth as he laughed, "It involves the New Covenant. I remember many people swore oaths back then. If the New Covenant were to be made, a certain peerless fairy would have to marry him, and a certain old monster would have to become his servant, hahaha..."
He laughed loudly, his demonic aura soaring to the heavens, his blood energy mixed with Super Material, breaking through the sky. The entire curtain seemed unable to stop him, the golden ocean in the bamboo boat undulated, and even the divine moon shook violently.
His words caused many people's expressions to change, and they were not pleasant.
Even the Female Daoist practitioner gave him a cold look, causing the Demon Ancestor to slightly restrain his aura and chuckle to himself.
Zhang Daoling had to quickly explain, saying, "You've gone too far with the joke. The new covenant has to meet various requirements, and all the conditions from the past must be met. This isn't a true new covenant, so don't overthink it. What's meant to decay will still decay, and those who are meant to be mortals should prepare to be mortals. Don't get carried away."
After the group calmed down a bit, Zheng Yuantian spoke up, saying, "The God Slaying Banner is here, but where are my descendants? This item has already been obtained by Zheng Wu."
Wang Xuan was incredibly annoyed. Old Zheng definitely knew he was an imposter, yet he kept bringing this up. Was he going to label him first, God Slaying Banner belonged to the Zheng family?
"Your descendant is dead," the Female Daoist practitioner said.
This moment revealed her terrifying nature. Despite her Ice Skin, Jade Bones, ethereal aura, and unparalleled beauty, she held considerable authority. Even Zheng Yuantian fell silent, refusing to say anything more.
Wang Xuan increasingly felt that Fang Yuzhu was more reliable. Look at the Demonic Creatures and Monsters that Old Zhang had invited—not a single one of them was a good person!
Now, he's starting to have some doubts. Is Old Zhang some kind of Daoist figure? Otherwise, why would he change his name?
At this moment, the Female Daoist practitioner also began to invite people. The first one arrived, dressed in flowing red, like a celestial being walking on water, descending into the divine moon and revealing her beautiful true face.
Wang Xuan was speechless, unable to express his true feelings. He had just said the Female Daoist practitioner was reliable, but now he had invited Female Demon Immortal. He felt that perhaps this was also his fault; why did everything he invited seem to be connected to him? He reflected on his actions.
