An Agreement

"Heaven Soul Crystal?" Upon hearing this familiar term, Lu Yan'an immediately became curious. He knew that the Nine Calamity Secret Manual could only be recorded using Heaven Soul Crystal; otherwise, the Primal Universe would probably not have allowed such a heaven-defying Nine Calamity Secret Manual to exist.

"Third disciple, I originally prepared two supreme Supreme Treasure for each of my disciples. You haven't appeared yet. Fourth Junior Brother's two supreme Supreme Treasure are the Star Tower and the Jie Armor. And your Second Senior Brother's two Supreme Treasure are the Yan Shen Halberd and the Original Soul."

"Back then, I guided the birth of the Flame Yan Shen Race Yan Shen Race. The Flame God Clan possesses extremely high innate talent, making them natural-born warriors. The leader of the Yan Shen Race Clan, who is also your second senior brother, is extremely skilled in close combat and possesses boundless power. The Flame God Halberd is a Supreme Treasure used by warriors, and the 'Original Soul' is a very special treasure related to the soul. When integrated into the soul, it can make the soul even stronger!"

"Your second senior brother is extremely strong in terms of Divine Body, but compared to his Divine Body, his soul is relatively ordinary, comparable to that of Universe Master. Only with the Supreme Treasure 'Original Soul' can he surpass it. In this way... the Supreme Treasure 'Original Soul' makes his soul even stronger, and the Flame God Halberd makes his combat power even more formidable... Now, he is an absolute Overlord in the vast universe, extremely skilled in battle, and many races are unwilling to provoke the Yan Shen Race. However, although the Original Soul can gradually strengthen his soul, his fundamental mental deficiency cannot be remedied!"

The Zuoshanke sighed and spoke with a rather complicated expression.

"So, that's how your Yuan Planet lineage came to be." As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yan'an suddenly felt the gaze of the Zuoshanke fall upon him. "Your Yuan Planet lineage has weak physical talent, but there are still ways in the universe to alter bloodlines and enhance genes. However, your inherent flaws in your mental state are irreparable!"

"Thus, the Nine Calamity Secret Manual came into being! This 'Heaven Soul' was an extra gain I made while searching for the material to carry this heaven-defying secret technique of mine."

"Pu Ti should have already told you about the Nine Calamity Secret Manual and the Heaven Soul Crystal, so I won't go into details again. The Nine Calamity Secret Manual's miraculous effects essentially create a Special Lifeform. Unfortunately, this Nine Calamity Secret Manual can only be practiced by one person, and only by a flesh-and-blood life form with the soul of the Yuan Planet lineage. This is something I specifically prepared for my fourth disciple who will inherit the Star Tower."

"Let me tell you more about this 'Heaven Soul' now. The 'Heaven Soul' is Supreme Treasure that comes with the heaven-defying material 'Heaven Soul Crystal'! It has a similar effect to the supreme Supreme Treasure 'Original Soul', which can subtly make your soul stronger and completely protect you from soul-related attacks," the Zuoshanke said with a smile.

"Completely immune to attacks on the soul?" Lu Yan'an was taken aback and asked in disbelief.

"Of course there's a limit!" The Zuoshanke glanced at Lu Yan'an, his eyes seeming to say, "What are you thinking?" "With the protection of this 'Heaven Soul,' you can completely ignore Soul Attack below the ninth rank! And if the Soul Attack reaches the ninth rank, the 'Heaven Soul' can also help you weaken its power by 90%."

"It's a pity you didn't acknowledge the Star Tower as your master. Otherwise, with the Star Tower guarding your soul, even a tenth-level Soul Attack would be ignored like a gentle breeze." The Zuoshanke explained, seemingly with some regret.

"Teacher, putting aside the Star Tower, this 'Heaven Soul' alone is far beyond my comprehension!" Lu Yan'an exclaimed in amazement. "Are all Peak Soul-type Supreme Treasure this terrifying?"

"That's impossible!" the Zuoshanke replied decisively. "This 'Heaven Soul' is the accompanying Supreme Treasure of the Heaven Soul Crystal. In itself, it is a heaven-defying object that transcends the Cosmic Rules! Coupled with my refining techniques, it is comparable to a supreme Supreme True Treasure of the soul type! As for ordinary Peak Soul-type Supreme Treasure, how could they possibly have such an effect? The value of this 'Heaven Soul' is such that even if you used all the resources of your Human Race, you could not refine it!"

I have high expectations for you.

"Although you lack the Nine Calamity Secret Manual, your genetic life level is extremely high, with no weaknesses in your Divine Body or soul! As the most outstanding powerhouse of the Yuan Planet lineage in this generation, your willpower is exceptionally strong. Consciousness is the general of Spiritual Force, while willpower is the commander of consciousness! A strong willpower will allow you to unleash ten or even a hundred times the power in your soul."

"A strong body, a strong soul, and a strong will."

"Whether it's the body or the soul, there are many ways to improve them. Only willpower... relies on the heart; treasures and secret techniques are useless against it," the Zuoshanke sighed. "Therefore, after learning my lesson, I guided and nurtured your Yuan Planet lineage. Your Yuan Planet lineage is better at improving your mental state. Although your physical talent is quite ordinary among the entire Human Race, and even at the bottom in the vast universe, the strength of your willpower is enough to make you stand out among countless races in the universe."

This goes without saying; a look at Lu Yan'an's rise to power reveals just how strong his willpower truly is.

"I have also prepared two Supreme Treasure for you. The first is this 'Heaven Soul,' which will help you prevent your soul from being forcibly annihilated by the strongest beings skilled in the Soul Path when you are adventuring in the Universe Ocean. As for the second one..."

At this point, the Zuoshanke paused, then said, "I'm still considering what kind of Supreme Treasure I should prepare for you!"

After a moment of contemplation, the Zuoshanke seemed to have thought of something and said, "How about this? Starting with Peak True Treasure, if you can kill ten Universe Master within your Universe Venerable stage, then I promise... you provide the materials, and I'll upgrade this Peak True Treasure to a higher level for you, refining it into a Supreme True Treasure Supreme Treasure for free. What do you think? Generally speaking, the materials needed to refine a Supreme True Treasure are worth about 30% of the Supreme True Treasure itself."

Lu Yan'an's eyes lit up immediately. He really hadn't expected the Zuoshanke to be so generous! After all, that was Supreme True Treasure! The entire human race had struggled for countless Years and still hadn't obtained a single Supreme True Treasure. Yet, the Zuoshanke was openly offering it for the price of ten Universe Masters. It was simply insane!

"If you break through to the Universe Master during this period but haven't yet met my requirements, you can choose to have a Peak True Treasure or continue our agreement. However, the conditions of the agreement will need to be upgraded to killing three of the Universe Supreme Being! What do you think of my proposal?" The Zuoshanke said with a smile. "Moreover, the Supreme True Treasure I mentioned includes supreme Domain-type Supreme Treasure, supreme flying Palace-type Supreme Treasure, and so on..."

A fiery glint flashed in Lu Yan'an's eyes; the request from the Zuoshanke was exactly what he wanted!

"Hehe, aren't you tempted! The higher your requirements, the more materials I will provide based on the Supreme Treasure you need," the Zuoshanke teased. "But don't be too ambitious. To forge the Supreme True Treasure, the rarity and scarcity of the materials required are such that even if your Human Race exhausts all its resources, it might not be able to gather them all."

"Then please wait and see, Master Zuoshanke." Lu Yan'an was full of fighting spirit. If others heard Zuoshanke's condition, they would only think that he was making unreasonable demands. Putting aside everything else, the condition of killing ten Universe Master just sounded like an impossible task. Even in the Universe Ocean, killing a Universe Master is not an easy thing, let alone Lu Yan'an, who is currently only a Universe Venerable. Asking a Universe Venerable to kill ten Universe Master sounds like a fantasy.

But Lu Yan'an really wasn't intimidated! Putting everything else aside, he already had the lives of four Universe Masters from the Machine Race in his hands. Gathering ten Universe Master wasn't particularly difficult. The only thing to consider now was the impact, but all of that would no longer be a problem after the City Lord of Chaos broke through to become the Universe Supreme Being.

"This Zuoshanke just wants me to go on a killing spree." Lu Yan'an naturally saw through the Zuoshanke's intentions. It hadn't even changed its tactics, after all, the City Lord Luo in the original story was tricked into a bloody battle across the universe in the same way. However, he didn't mind the Zuoshanke's tactics, after all, it was Supreme True Treasure, and Supreme True Treasure of any type that he could choose himself, who could refuse that?
