What was the core of a Soul Spirit Contract?
It had been derived by using a Blood Contract as reference.
Then what was the function of this contract?
Many, and very complicated. But if one had to name the core benefit of this contract, it was that it allowed the two signers to feed back into each other. It could be bloodline, abilities, or feedback brought to the other party when one's strength increased.
However, in the end, there was 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 Equal Contract Huo Yuhao provided had no master-servant relationship whatsoever.
There were side effects, of course. If one person died, the other would also pay a price, though that was of little use against them...
So, after confirming that there were no issues with this contract, Gu Yuena made the decision to sign the Equal Contract, because it could bring her benefits.
From the aura of that Super Divine Tool, she could infer that the laws this God King comprehended were the core origin of the universe. If, through this contract, she received feedback when he returned to the God King level or comprehended the laws of the universe, then perhaps she could attain a God King position without becoming the Dragon God.
However, the probability of that was too small.
And aside from that fanciful idea, there were other benefits.
Using this contract as a starting point, drawing closer to the "Huo God King" in her eyes, she would have the chance to learn more information about the Divine Realm from him, such as the Divine Realm's whereabouts, when it would return, and so on.
Even... forming an offensive and defensive alliance with a God King!
Gu Yuena had already thrown the original purpose of coming to meet Huo Yuhao to the back of her mind. A reincarnated God King from another world was right in front of her. She had to consider whether this might be the only chance she would ever have in this life!
What about Huo Yuhao?
He was human, while Gu Yuena was a god, and the Silver Dragon King with an incomparably powerful Bloodline Power at that!
Even though they had only just signed the contract, he still received a considerable amount of feedback. In Huo Yuhao's eyes, the wind, space, fire, and other Seven Elements in the air all became active, and the entire world turned into Seven Colors.
Among them, the one closest to him was naturally the Ice Element. If he used his Ice Jade Scorpion Martial Soul to fight at this moment, he could draw on the Ice Element in the air to empower himself, increasing the might of his soul skills by several levels.
In the future, improving his Ultimate Ice Attribute, comprehending the laws of the Ice Element, and creating a corresponding god position would also become much easier.
And this was only the effect of having just signed the contract. As Gu Yuena's cultivation recovered, and the moment she returned to the god level, the feedback it brought would be even greater.
Huo Yuhao's eyes flickered.
The breakthrough from zero to one is far more important than going from one to one hundred. Even if the feedback afterward isn't ideal, this is enough. With this bit of the Silver Dragon King Bloodline enhancing me, many opportunities I didn't dare think about before can now be attempted.
Gu Yuena sensed it for a while. After confirming that she had not changed much for the time being, she looked at Huo Yuhao with a complicated expression.
It seemed he really had sealed away all of his own power.
Thinking about it carefully, that made sense. Most of the power he used belonged to Douluo Continent itself...
Why did she suddenly feel like she had lost out a little?
In human terms—had she been freeloaded off?
"Yuhao, do you want to try fusing this trace of bloodline into this empress's Martial Soul?"
In the Spiritual Sea, the Ice Empress asked with considerable excitement, "Her bloodline carries the Ice Attribute. Tian Meng's soul skill can do this!"
One of the effects of the Heavenly Silkworm Transformation soul skill: breaking the cocoon to become a butterfly. It could absorb souls and bloodlines containing the Ice Attribute and fuse them into the Ice Jade Scorpion Martial Soul, improving the Martial Soul's origin and ultimately causing its quality to sublime!
The Ice Empress did not know where the limit was, but with the quality of the Martial Soul she had given Yuhao, advancing it to a level comparable to a divine-grade Martial Soul like the Six-Winged Angel was absolutely no problem.
And if it had the support of the Silver Dragon King Bloodline, this path would become incomparably smooth!
"No rush."
Huo Yuhao glanced at Gu Yuena, who seemed to be spacing out, and said with a strange mood:
"Let's wait until we get the Golden Dragon King Bloodline first."
For some reason, he had the strange feeling he had tricked an innocent young girl.
At Eastsea City's Soul Tool Train station, a dark-blue Soul Tool Train slowly pulled into the station and decelerated.
Tang Wulin followed the crowd out of the station. Because it was his first time coming to a big city, he looked around curiously.
Originally, his mom and dad had wanted to come with him too, but prices in Eastsea City were relatively high, and finding a suitable place to live and work would take time, so they had let him come here to attend school first.
Tang Wulin was walking forward when he suddenly discovered that the crowd ahead was automatically parting to both sides. Looking closely, he realized that a Soul Guidance Car gleaming with a black, glossy sheen had stopped on the platform. In order to avoid it, people were all going around from both sides.
Meanwhile, a man in black beside the car had already walked over, preparing to receive the blue-clothed youth next to Tang Wulin.
At that moment, Tang Wulin was swept along by the flow of people and bumped into that youth. The youth staggered from the collision and abruptly turned around to look at him.
"Watch it, country bumpkin!" The youth had yet to say anything, but the man in black grew anxious. He spoke viciously and even wanted to shove Tang Wulin, but after seeing the bracelet on the other party's arm, his movement instantly froze in place.
That tower-shaped emblem, could it be...
"Sorry!" Tang Wulin hurriedly apologized. "I didn't mean it."
"It's fine."
The blue-clothed youth—Xie Xie—saw his bodyguard's movement stop, and also noticed Tang Wulin's bracelet. He said one sentence with an unnatural expression, then brought his bodyguard toward the Soul Guidance Car in the distance.
Tang Wulin stared blankly at the sight, then subconsciously looked at the bracelet on his arm.
He had not noticed the man in black, but after that youth looked at his bracelet, his movements stiffened for a moment. Tang Wulin had noticed that.
"Wulin, wear it on the outside. Don't let your sleeve cover it. This way, you can avoid most trouble. Remember, try to keep it on whenever you're out."
The image of his mother rolling up his sleeve for him and exposing the bracelet surfaced in Tang Wulin's mind.
"The Spirit Pagoda is a major power. With this, no one will dare bully you. But you can't use it to bully others at school, okay?"
The Spirit Pagoda was a major power. Just how major was it?
Tang Wulin looked at the bracelet, touched it, and smiled.
That Spirit Master uncle had said he could use the bracelet to collect a subsidy every month. He would go take a look later.
Tang San's Divine Sense: "..."
He no longer wanted to pay attention to Wulin. Every day, watching the other party fall bit by bit into the trap called the "Spirit Pagoda," watching his fortune decline little by little, made him feel panicked and sorrowful.
Why can't you have even a little of your father's style and use the Spirit Pagoda's subsidy to bring down the Spirit Pagoda!
Tang San's Divine Sense sighed deeply.
The power of his divine sense was limited. Observing Wulin's daily life every day consumed the strength of this wisp of divine sense. If this went on for too long, he feared even his own memories would become incomplete.
Now that Wulin was about to break through the seal, it was better not to continue wasting divine sense observing the outside world lately. In any case, given Wulin's range of activity, he probably would not run into the culprit who had stolen his fortune.
He also had to think about how to teach Wulin, so that he would not be tempted by the Spirit Pagoda...
At the thought of the word "teach," Tang San suddenly felt a little unsure of himself.
Because he remembered his previous child—Tang Wutong.
After she recovered her memories, she lazed around every day and did not cultivate either.
And the Lucky Beast gift package he had prepared for her became difficult to scheme around because Huo Yuhao had never gone to the Star Dou Great Forest.
Once the Spirit Pagoda was established, there was even less to say.
The Lucky Beast had even become a Peace Ambassador. Fierce Beasts and Limit Douluo guarded her at all times, and she carried a pile of ninth-rank Soul Cannon Shells, ninth-rank spatial Soul Tools... She had also been educated by certain bastards into developing ambition for her career and losing any interest in romance, making her dozens of times harder to control.
With all these factors stacked together, his, the Sea God's, biological daughter, the one blessed by the Butterfly God—Tang Wutong—had actually almost failed to become a god, and he had even needed to give her special help. Was that right? Was this a denial of his teaching ability?
No, Tang God King secretly shook his head.
That had nothing to do with his teaching ability. Wutong had simply been spoiled rotten by Xiao Wu, Da Ming, Er Ming, and the others when she was young. In the Divine Realm, he had the honored reputation of the God of Wisdom. How could he possibly fail to correct Wulin, who was walking down the wrong path?
With that thought, Tang God King withdrew the divine sense he had been using to pay attention to the outside world.
