Cao Kun had spoken only of the benefits, not the risks.

The first was the risk of failure.

The second was the binding nature of the contract: the Soul Spirit would be influenced by its host to some degree.

But gaining something meant giving something up.

On the other side, the Giant Tortoise fell silent when it felt Zhi Shui lock onto it. Light flickered in its ancient, pool-like eyes as it wrestled with the decision.

As a top-tier Soul Beast that had lived for nearly ninety thousand years, it was highly intelligent. It had its own understanding of life, death, power, and existence itself.

It had long since reached the limit of its species. Almost no path forward remained.

If it stayed in this bamboo grove, it might live another few thousand years, but its end would come. In the end, it would turn to dust.

The "Soul Spirit Contract" this mysterious human proposed sounded unbelievable, even a little like the "sacrifice" of legend. Yet it offered a possibility the tortoise had never imagined.

Coexist with a human Soul Master of immense potential?

Witness the realm of Titled Douluo, or even something beyond it?

Continue to "exist" in another form?

For an old tortoise of extraordinary intelligence that had reached the end of its path, the temptation was immense.

Above all, death was staring it in the face.

It did not want to die yet.

Whatever happened, it had to try.

The old tortoise slowly raised its head. It looked at Cao Kun, then at Zhao Wuji, whose face was alight with excitement he was struggling to contain. Its gaze swept over Flender, Dugu Yan, and the others before returning to Cao Kun.

A low, drawn-out sigh escaped the Giant Tortoise, as though rising from deep within the earth.
