The Ten-Year Pact!

The chaotic void outside the Fifth World was silent.

The powerful figures from both sides were secretly communicating with each other, but none of them dared to utter a sound.

The focus of all the powerful figures was on Zhou Hao, who stood there silently.

His face was completely calm, but the still-wet blood on his right hand allowed every True God Dao Ancestor to feel the mad killing intent suppressed in their hearts.

a long time.

The three leaders of the Wujian Gate present seemed to have made a decision, but the one who spoke first was not the supreme leader, the Lord of Myriad Demons ' Wind Demon ', but the Master Hengmu.

"Zhou Hao, if I were to guarantee with my own life that you can reveal the method to enhance your True Immortal strength, and have Wind Demon and the others verify it, I will immediately release your son Zhou Yu. I wonder if you would believe me?" Master Hengmu said.

"You should know that even True God Dao Ancestor can disregard oaths to the Heavenly Dao. Even if the Wind Demon were willing to make an oath, you would certainly not believe it."

Zhou Hao remained silent.

He certainly didn't believe it. The power of Heavenly Dao's punishment wasn't infinite; it posed almost no threat to ordinary True God Dao Ancestor, let alone Wind Demon born from a Chaos Ancestor God.

If oaths from Heavenly Dao were effective, how could the two sides have ended up in this situation?

"Therefore, I stake my own life on it." Master Hengmu's gaze swept over the powerful figures in Nuwa Faction. "The Sanqing Rulai all told me that as long as I don't participate in the war between the two camps, they won't target me. But I can't just stand by and watch my old brothers, who were born from chaos together, fight to the death while I hide on the sidelines, clinging to life. Although I dislike fighting and loathe killing..."

"Today, before all the powerful figures from both sides, I swear an oath, guaranteeing it with my life. If the Wujian Gate obtains your methods and fails to release your son, I will commit suicide to atone for my sins."

The Master Hengmu looked at Zhou Hao: "So, you might believe me?"

Zhou Hao also looked at the Master Hengmu, remained silent for a long time, and finally spoke, "How do you intend to verify this?"

"I will select a group of immortals and demons to try and verify your method. As long as one of them succeeds, like your true self and your avatars, with a celestial immortal comparable to a true immortal and a true immortal comparable to a Dao Ancestor, I will personally send your son back to Perching Dragon Gorge," said the Lord of Myriad Demons.

"The same method, practiced by people of different aptitudes, will yield different results. How can I guarantee success? Are you going to test it for thousands or tens of thousands of years while I have to wait forever?" Zhou Hao sneered.

He himself had only recently figured out and successfully verified the method for enhancing the Heavenly Immortal Golden Core.

Judging from his own attempt, even if one obtains the method, to increase the Golden Core space sixty times like the Asura God's clone, it requires extremely high standards in terms of divine body, aptitude, comprehension, and even the realm of the Dao. Not everyone can achieve this.

As for someone like myself, who has pushed the Golden Core space to its limit and was comparable to a true immortal god when he was a Celestial Immortal, it is purely due to the Blue Flower in his body.

Even he himself didn't know how Blue Flower had directly transformed the chaotic world born from the phantom of the Golden Core into Heavenly Immortal Golden Core. How could he guarantee this to the Wujian Gate?

"I'm not as despicable as your Wujian Gate. Since I promised to tell you, I naturally won't try to fool you with fake methods." Zhou Hao sneered. "Believe it or not, there's nothing I can do."

"Our demands are very simple, and we haven't even questioned you about killing Dark Light, yet you refuse to agree..." The Lord of Myriad Demons shook his head.

"Wind Demon," Master Hengmu said quickly, "Let's set a ten-year limit. With ten years, we can at least verify whether Zhou Hao's method is effective."

"Zhou Hao, for the next ten years I will personally guide and teach little Zhou Yu, and ensure his safety," Master Hengmu said to Zhou Hao. "There is someone in the Hundred Graves Mountain of the Heavenly Realm with whom you have a very deep past connection. Do you remember her? I will stay in the Hundred Graves Mountain for ten years, and she will take care of little Zhou Yu."

Hundred Graves Mountain? Xiangcao?

Zhou Hao sneered inwardly.

The Wujian Gate have truly investigated everything related to them, and now they're even using Xiangcao to play the emotional card.

"Xiangcao was able to take human form in this life only because she received the essence of my old friend Zichi. I treat her as family and a junior. Ten years later, not only will I send Zhou Yu back to Perching Dragon Gorge, but even if Xiangcao wants to go, I will allow her to leave Hundred Graves Mountain. Can you agree to this arrangement?" Master Hengmu looked at Zhou Hao.

no way.

It's no longer just about finding ways to increase strength; it's about how to avoid a decisive battle between the two factions right now.

Although they appeared to be ready for a decisive battle at any moment, it was merely a facade to force Nuwa Faction to compromise.

The most powerful puppet capable of changing the course of battle has only just begun to be forged, and its contribution to the struggle for the destiny of the Three Realms is far from sufficient.

Compared to the Nuwa Faction, which has a stronger foundation and has left behind various methods after Nuwa left the Three Realms, the Wujian Gate is actually the one least willing to engage in the final battle now.

"Okay." Zhou Hao was silent for a moment before finally agreeing.

ten years?

Ten years later, my divine body will advance to the level of a true god, and my basic strength will soar even higher. With the power of the Blue Flower, I will probably be able to rival Ancestor God.

Then we can settle our scores later!

Call!

A streak of light flew from Zhou Hao's hand and rushed towards the Master Hengmu.

It was a jade slip containing the methods for enhancing one's Golden Core.

Of course, this is just the simplest method.

In the past three years, the Sanqing Ones, Rulai Suiren-shi, have further researched and improved upon the methods given to him by Zhou Hao.

But naturally, he couldn't hand those over to the Wujian Gate.

"Remember your vow." Zhou Hao glanced at the Master Hengmu, then his figure disappeared.

"So it turns out that when condensing the Heavenly Immortal Golden Core, one absorbs the primordial energy of the Five Elements to enhance the Golden Core..." After receiving the jade slip, the Master Hengmu scanned its contents with his mind and was immediately filled with amazement.

After receiving confirmation that Zhou Hao was merely a True Immortal God, they had made many guesses.

It was a consensus among them that Zhou Hao's golden core was different from that of ordinary people.

Previous speculations focused on how to improve the Golden Core after its formation; no one had ever imagined that the process of forming the Golden Core itself would be the key.

"What a brilliant idea! To dare to absorb external forces while condensing the Golden Core. That's right, a Golden Core condensed by absorbing one's own Origin Power, guided by the natural world, naturally contains less magical power than a Golden Core condensed by absorbing the primordial energy of the Five Elements. No wonder." The Master Hengmu handed the jade slip in his hand to the Lord of Myriad Demons.

Although it has not yet been verified, with his level of understanding and knowledge, he can naturally discern that this method of enhancing the Golden Core is theoretically entirely feasible.

In reality, it's just a matter of a thin veil; it's just that for countless years, the path of Qi cultivation has always been about naturally condensing the Golden Core, and no one has ever dared to try it.

After all, having gone through countless calamities and hardships to finally transcend tribulations and become a Celestial Immortal, who wouldn't be extremely cautious, fearing even the slightest mistake? Who would dare to use their most important life core, the Heavenly Immortal Golden Core, for such an experiment?

After the Lord of Myriad Demons received the jade slip and read it, a look of joy appeared on his face.

Seeing that the other powerful figures in his camp were curious, he immediately said, "Let's talk about it when we get back to the Myriad Demon Realm."

"I won't go then." Master Hengmu looked at the Black-Robed God King. "Bu Xiu, give me little Zhou Yu."

"Yes, Uncle-Master." The Black-Robed God King hesitated for a moment, but still obediently handed Zhou Yu over to the Master Hengmu.

In truth, he was unwilling to hand over Zhou Hao's son.

He knew that Zhou Hao must hate him to the core. And given the strength Zhou Hao had displayed, he could even confront the Demonic Hand Dao Ancestor head-on; he was no match for him.

But since the Master Hengmu had already made a vow and the demon lord had agreed, what right did he have to object?

"Damn Suiren-shi, that embers of fire actually have the function of protecting the soul!" The Black-Robed God King cursed inwardly.

With Xiao Zhou Yu in his grasp, he naturally wanted to make some backup plans.

However, Suiren-shi planted the seed of Undying Fire Seed in Zhou Yu when he was still in his mother's womb, so that Zhou Yu's soul and true spirit were protected by the seed of fire. His inner demon secret technique could not invade without touching the seed of fire.

"We have to think of other ways. If Zhou Hao isn't eliminated, he will remain a major threat." The Black-Robed God King's face was grim as he rapidly considered various options.

But his strength was inferior to others; even the Demonic Hand Dao Ancestor couldn't kill Zhou Hao. What could he possibly think of in a short time?

Perching Dragon Gorge.

Having left the void outside the Fifth World, Zhou Hao returned to the Limitless Palace.

"Senior Golden Mother," Zhou Hao telepathically transmitted to the Golden Mother within the Jade Pool, "Please do not tell his mother about Yu'er's matter."

Only True God Dao Ancestor within the Three Realms could know about the previous great battle with a single Three Realms. Liu Yu was in Jade Pool, so as long as the Golden Mother didn't say anything, she naturally wouldn't know.

"I won't tell," the Jade Pool Golden Mother replied quickly. "For the next ten years, I will keep her and Xi Yue and her daughter in Jade Pool. They will leave after Xiao Zhou Yu returns."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Senior Jin Mu," Zhou Hao said gratefully.

For cultivators, ten years is merely a period of seclusion. With the Golden Mother's help, there's no need to worry about Liu Yu causing further trouble after learning about Zhou Yu's affairs.

Moreover, Jade Pool is a secluded and tranquil place, with no outsiders except for the Jade Pool Golden Mother and the Three Xiao Sisters of the Clouds. With Liu Yu and Yun Yuchan staying in Jade Pool with Xi Yue, Zhou Hao can rest assured.

"Ten years..." Zhou Hao's consciousness watched as the Master Hengmu appeared at Hundred Graves Mountain, handing over little Zhou Yu to Xiangcao to take care of, his eyes filled with unprecedented confidence and determination.

Within ten years, I will definitely step into the realm of true godhood and truly possess the most powerful strength in the Three Realms!
