What was the core of a Soul Spirit Contract?
It had been derived using a Blood Contract as a reference.
And what was the function of this contract?
There were many, and they were complex, but if one had to name its core benefit, it was that the two signatories could nourish each other in return. It could be bloodline, abilities, or feedback granted to the other party when one's strength improved.
However, there was ultimately still a master-servant relationship. After all, if the contracted Soul Spirit possessed autonomy and could control the Soul Master's body, no Soul Master would dare sign such a contract.
But the Equality Contract Huo Yuhao had provided had no master-servant relationship at all.
There were side effects, though. If one person died, the other would also pay a price, although that meant nothing to them...
For Taiwan novels, Taiwan Novel Network was the place to go. It was incredibly smooth.
Thus, after confirming that there was no problem with the contract, Gu Yuena decided to sign this Equality Contract, because it could bring her benefits.
From the aura of that Super Divine Artifact, she could infer that the laws this God King had comprehended concerned the core origin of the universe. If she received feedback through this contract when he returned to the God King level or comprehended the Universal Law, she might be able to attain a God King's Divine Position without becoming the Dragon God.
But the odds of that were far too small.
Aside from such a fantastical notion, there were other benefits as well.
Using this contract as a starting point, she could draw closer to the "Huo God King" in her eyes. Then, she might have the chance to learn more about the God Realm from him—its whereabouts, when it would return, and so on.
She might even... form an offensive and defensive alliance with a God King!
Gu Yuena had already cast aside her original reason for coming to see Huo Yuhao. A reincarnated God King from another world stood right before her. She had to consider whether this might be the only opportunity she would ever have in her life!
And what about Huo Yuhao?
He was human, while Gu Yuena was a God—and the Silver Dragon King, with incomparably powerful Bloodline Power!
Even though they had only just signed the contract, he still received considerable feedback. In Huo Yuhao's eyes, the seven elements in the air—wind, space, fire, and the like—became active, and the entire world turned into a kaleidoscope of colors.
Naturally, the closest to him was the Ice Element. If he used the Ice Jade Scorpion Martial Soul in battle now, he could draw upon the Ice Element in the air for reinforcement, increasing the power of his soul skills severalfold.
In the future, it would also become much easier for him to improve his Extreme Ice attribute, comprehend the laws of the Ice Element, and forge a corresponding Divine Position.
This was only the effect of having just signed the contract. As Gu Yuena's cultivation recovered and she returned to the God Tier, the feedback she brought him would only increase.
Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered.
"Breaking through from zero to one is far more important than going from one to a hundred. Even if the feedback afterward is disappointing, this is enough. With this trace of Silver Dragon King Bloodline strengthening me, I can try many opportunities I never dared imagine before."
Gu Yuena sensed herself for a moment. After confirming that she had not changed much for the time being, she looked at Huo Yuhao with a complicated expression.
It seemed that he had truly sealed away all of his power.
On second thought, that made sense. Most of the power he used was native to Douluo Continent...
Why did she suddenly feel as if she had gotten the short end of the stick?
In human terms—had she just been taken advantage of for free?
"Yuhao, do you want to try integrating this trace of bloodline into my Martial Soul?"
Ice Empress asked excitedly within the Sea of Consciousness, "Her bloodline carries the ice attribute. Tian Meng's soul skill can accomplish this!"
One effect of the Silkworm Transformation soul skill: Breaking the Cocoon, Becoming a Butterfly. It could absorb souls and bloodlines containing the ice attribute and integrate them into the Ice Jade Scorpion Martial Soul, enhancing the Martial Soul's origin until its quality ultimately underwent a sublimation!
Ice Empress did not know where the limit lay, but with the quality of the Martial Soul she had given Yuhao, there would absolutely be no problem advancing it to the level of a God Tier Martial Soul comparable to the Six-Winged Angel.
And if it received the Silver Dragon King Bloodline's support, that path would become incomparably smooth!
"Not yet."
Huo Yuhao glanced at Gu Yuena, who seemed to be lost in thought, and said with an odd expression,
"Let's wait until we obtain the Golden Dragon King Bloodline."
For some reason, he had the strange Deja Vu of having tricked an innocent young girl.
At Eastsea City's Soul Tool Train Station, a dark-blue Soul Tool Train slowly entered the station and decelerated.
Tang Wulin followed the crowd out of the station. Since it was his first time in a large city, he looked around curiously.
His father and mother had originally wanted to come with him, but prices in Eastsea City were rather high, and it would take time to find suitable lodging and work. So they had let him come ahead to attend school.
Tang Wulin was walking forward when he suddenly noticed the crowd ahead automatically parting to either side. Looking closely, he saw that a Soul Tool Vehicle with a gleaming black finish had stopped on the platform. People were detouring around it from both sides to avoid it.
A man in black beside the vehicle had already walked over, preparing to greet the blue-clothed young man beside Tang Wulin.
At that moment, Tang Wulin was swept along by the crowd and bumped into the young man. The young man staggered from the impact and abruptly turned to look at him.
"Watch where you're going, country bumpkin!" The young man had yet to say anything, but the man in black grew anxious and snapped viciously. He even wanted to shove Tang Wulin, but when he saw the Bracelet on Tang Wulin's arm, his movement froze instantly.
That tower-shaped symbol... could it be...
"I'm sorry!" Tang Wulin hurriedly apologized. "I didn't mean to."
"It's fine."
Xie Xie, the blue-clothed young man, noticed that his bodyguard had frozen and also spotted Tang Wulin's Bracelet. His expression turned awkward as he replied, then left with his bodyguard toward the distant Soul Tool Vehicle.
Tang Wulin stared blankly, then subconsciously looked at the Bracelet on his arm.
He had not paid attention to the man in black, but he had noticed that the young man had stiffened after seeing his Bracelet.
"Wulin, wear it outside your sleeve. Don't let your clothes cover it. That way, you can avoid most trouble. Remember to keep wearing it whenever you're outside."
The memory of Mother rolling up his sleeve and exposing the Bracelet surfaced in Tang Wulin's mind.
"Spirit Pagoda is a powerful organization. With this, no one will dare bully you. But you mustn't use it to bully people at school, okay?"
Spirit Pagoda was a powerful organization, but just how powerful was it?
Tang Wulin looked at the Bracelet, touched it, and smiled.
That Spirit Transmitter Uncle had said that he could use the Bracelet to collect an allowance every month. He would go take a look later.
Tang San's Divine Sense: "..."
He no longer wanted to watch Wulin. Every day, he watched Wulin fall deeper into the trap called "Spirit Pagoda," his fortune declining bit by bit, and it filled him with panic and sorrow.
Why couldn't he have a little of his father's style, taking Spirit Pagoda's subsidies while working against Spirit Pagoda?!
Tang San's Divine Sense let out a deep sigh.
The power of his Divine Sense was limited. Observing Wulin's daily life consumed this strand of Divine Sense each day. If this continued, even his own memories might become incomplete.
Wulin was about to break through the seal now, so it would be better not to keep expending Divine Sense to observe the outside world for the time being. Given Wulin's range of activity, he probably would not encounter the culprit stealing his fortune anyway.
He also needed to think about how to teach Wulin not to be tempted by Spirit Pagoda...
When he thought of the word "teach," Tang San suddenly felt a little less confident.
Because he remembered his previous child—Tang Wutong.
After recovering her memories, she had become lazy and listless every day, not cultivating at all.
And the Auspicious Beast gift package he had prepared for her had become difficult to arrange because Huo Yuhao had never gone to the Star Dou Great Forest.
Once Spirit Pagoda was established, it became even more impossible.
The Auspicious Beast had become a Peace Ambassador. Beasts and Limit Douluos stood guard beside her at all times. She carried a whole pile of Level 9 Soul Tool Cannonballs and a Level 9 Spatial Soul Tool... and certain bastards had even taught her to develop a sense of career ambition, leaving her with no mind for romance. The difficulty of controlling her had increased dozens of times over.
With all these factors combined, Tang Wutong—his biological daughter, the Sea God's daughter, and one Blessed by the Butterfly God—had nearly failed to Become a God. He even had to personally give her special instruction. Was that reasonable? Was this not a denial of his teaching ability?
No. Tang God King secretly shook his head.
It had nothing to do with his teaching ability. Wutong had merely been spoiled by Xiao Wu, Da Ming, Er Ming, and the others when she was young. In the God Realm, he was known as the God of Wisdom. How could he possibly fail to correct Wulin, who was walking down the wrong path?
Thinking this, Tang God King withdrew the Divine Sense he had been using to observe the outside world.
