"Tiger Feather, there's no deep-seated hatred between us that demands our lives; we're just looking for a way to survive!"

"Heh~"

"The changes you brought about transformed the entire world. Qin Meng couldn't withstand the disaster, so our fear is understandable!"

"Oh!"

"As long as you don't cause us any trouble, you can do whatever you want on the Qin Meng Continent, and we won't bother you anymore!"

"Can!"

In the city of Leiata, Ren Anran transformed into the image of Zhang Xuezhou. She floated in the air, maintaining a safe distance of 500 meters from Hu Yu, and communicated with him through Demonic Sound Technique.

Tiger Feather responded calmly, his gaze occasionally drifting towards the distant aircraft.

His aircraft has cloud wings. Tiger Feather's cloud wings have various compatibility issues with Tiger Yu and Tiger Hao, and need to be refined again, but his cloud wings do not have such drawbacks.

If he can get it back, Tiger Feather will be able to use his own Cloud Wing power.

He made a huge mistake by giving up his Cloud Wings, which led to his current passive negotiation situation. But as long as he can get Cloud Wings back, the initiative will be in his hands.

If Zhang Xuezhou, who is skilled in flying, can be eliminated, all threats will be resolved.

Once the opponent is dead, all the Crimson Gold Cloud Wings and Wind and Thunder Blades will vanish into nothingness.

The strong don't care about ant nests tens of thousands of miles away, and Hu Yu doesn't mind giving these humans far from the Qin Meng Continent a way to survive.

His promises during negotiations were genuine, and he was willing to swear to reach an agreement; everything he expressed was from the heart.

All Hu Yu had to do was sign an agreement with Zhang Xuezhou; the moment he signed would be the moment he struck a fatal blow.

Before that, no matter what the two sides negotiated, Hu Yu would try his best to promise and agree.

Standing beside Hu Yu, Zhang Huang was filled with excitement, feeling that it was wonderful that they got along so peacefully.

"Since you agree, let's Great Heart Demon Oath to each other, that neither of us shall break the rules we have set for each other!" Ren Anran said.

"The Great Heart Demon Oath? What is that?"

Hu Yu was slightly taken aback.

The rules of the Tiger Saint Realm are to carve words on stone as proof of negotiations, and then print them out to inform the world, thus ensuring that both sides must abide by the alliance.

Tiger Feather had never heard of any rules regarding the Great Heart Demon Oath. This was somewhat different from the rules of negotiation he had imagined, and it made him a little uneasy. He couldn't help but frown.

"The Great Heart Demon Oath is witnessed by the void. Those who keep the oath will be protected by the void, while those who break the oath will be bound by the void and thus will not be able to ascend to a higher dimension and become a saint," Ren Anran said earnestly.

"This Great Heart Demon Oath binds me, but what kind of binding does it have on you?" Hu Yu asked.

"If I break my oath, I will not be able to return to the Tiger Saint Realm, and I will also die due to the erosion of the void," Ren Anran said.

"That sounds kind of interesting!"

Looking at Ren Anran, who had transformed into Zhang Xuezhou, Hu Yu wondered if this was a method developed by the Tiger Saint Lineage to target him.

He was determined to eliminate the other party, but Hu Yu couldn't be sure that the other party shared the same thought.

He gave a casual reply, indicating that Ren Anran should use the Great Heart Demon Oath first.

"Our vows are the same; simply repeat after me!"

Ren Anran had no concept of any Great Heart Demon Oath, let alone being bound by it.

She used the method Zhang Xuezhou used to recite the Tomb Scripture, Tomb Scripture is a kind of Fortune Technique that everyone can use, but whether it can be effective depends to some extent on luck.

Ren Anran hoped that both sides would pray for favorable weather, national prosperity, and peace. If such a prayer could be fulfilled, it would be a good thing; if it couldn't, it wouldn't be a major problem.

She began to recite aloud, while Hu Yu watched intently, trying to Ren Anran in the Great Heart Demon Oath.

To Hu Yu's slight disappointment, he couldn't understand what the other party was saying at all, and he couldn't even sense any fluctuations in power.

The other party seemed to be just casually expressing themselves, and there was nothing mysterious about the Great Heart Demon Oath.

The most significant problem is that Hu Yu doesn't believe he can be restrained by saying a few words; he doesn't see any rule-making effect in his speech.

If words had any effect, those dying curses directed at him would have long since turned into swords that pierced him into a sieve.

"Huang, are you aware of this Great Heart Demon Oath?"

Hu Yu asked in a low voice, and Zhang Huang shook his head repeatedly to indicate that he did not know, and he had never been bound by the Great Heart Demon Oath.

"Does he believe in gentlemen's agreements?"

After listening and reviewing the statement repeatedly, Hu Yu felt there was nothing wrong with it. When he consulted Zhang Huang again, Hu Yu was even more certain that such words would not cause any problems.

If Zhang Xuezhou's recitation caused any unusual behavior, he could simply interrupt it to avoid any impact.

After much deliberation, Hu Yu waited until Ren Anran finished reciting a passage before starting to speak as well.

As a top-level expert, he had no problem speaking with people, even if the language was unfamiliar.

After finishing one section of the recitation, Ren Anran continued reciting. Hu Yu kept a close eye on him, and he was quite certain that the recitation did not trigger any special power.

The recitation and retelling continued for nearly an hour until Ren Anran stopped talking, and Hu Yu didn't notice any adverse effects.

"You've finished reciting your Great Heart Demon Oath; it's time to have it inscribed on a monument according to my rules!"

After Hu Yu demonstrated his sincerity in following the Great Heart Demon Oath, he also indicated that Ren Anran needed to abide by his rules, thus putting his mind at ease about the rules of mutual restraint.

"Can!"

Half an hour earlier, Ren Anran had received a message from Zhang Xuezhou through the headphone jack informing her of stepping into her True Self, which brought her peace of mind.

She had initially maintained a safe distance, but now she was beginning to enter Tiger Feather's territory.

She rode the waves and drifted closer, then looked at the 'monument' that Tiger Feather had pointed to.

This used to be the wall outside the square, but Hu Yu used his methods to turn it into a kind of black stone.

"Please!"

Tiger Feather pointed to the stone tablet, then stood in front of it. The tips of his outstretched fingers appeared like claws, chiseling stone with sharp blades. Wherever his fingers traced, sharp, piercing sounds rang out, and characters appeared one after another.

Ren Anran touched the black stone, then looked at the pile of completely unfamiliar characters carved by Hu Yu.

She hesitated for less than a second before using her Stone Transformation Technique.

Compared to the violent depiction of Tiger Feather, the Stone Transformation Technique is almost subtle and gradual. As the Law Power is constantly worn down, the stone chips on the black stone fall down and form clear characters.

"What amazing skill!"

The black stone that Tiger Feather guided the changes in the world's origin is no ordinary thing. This stone is the core left behind by the world that fell from the secret realm, and it can be refined to create superior divine weapons.

This is also a rare mineral that the Tiger Saint Realm once fought tooth and nail for.

It is extremely difficult to brand words on this kind of mineral. He relied on his sharp tiger claws, which were capable of tearing through anything. Hu Yu did not expect that Ren Anran could carve the inscription with just two fingers.

This further convinced him that he couldn't hold back. His gaze swept over the cloud wings in the distant aircraft, and the tiger claws that were carving inscriptions with tiger feathers slowed down slightly, with a chilling aura emanating from their claws.

In the mere three to five seconds it took to interrupt his conversation, his domain had already taken shape, and his tiger claws swiftly reached out to grab Ren Anran, who was fifty meters away.

"Hahaha!"

In his gaze, Hu Yu saw Ren Anran's legs freezing and extending upwards, accompanied by a look of astonishment in her eyes.

"Yu, what are you doing?"

Only then did Zhang Huang look at Hu Yu with a face full of anger.

Tiger Feather did not target him for killing, but Tiger Feather made his move without any warning.

Rules were meaningless to Hu Yu; the words he uttered could be torn up and void in the next second. He reneged on everything that had been agreed upon.

Once the person who created the protocol dies, everything vanishes.

Anger gathered in Zhang Huang's chest. He looked with difficulty at the cultivator he had once followed, a red light appeared on his fist, and then he charged forward like a cannonball.

"Hahaha, Wilderness, it's been 883 years! You're still quite useful. It wasn't for nothing that I raised you as a wild beast back then!"

Hu Yu paid no attention to Zhang Huang's killing intent.

After dodging and parrying several times, his body was shattered by Zhang Huang's punch, and cracks appeared on his flesh.

But that was all; Hu Yu glanced at him and saw that his injuries had disappeared.

Even a massive explosion couldn't harm him, let alone Zhang Huang's martial arts skills.

If the opponent could control the Wind and Thunder Blade, that would be one thing, but Hu Yu knew very well that Zhang Huang had no chance of controlling the Tiger Saint Lineage's divine artifact.

He dodged aside and snapped his fingers at the solidified ice sculpture.

The ice sculpture shattered instantly, turning into a pile of ice shards on the ground, transparent and pure white like a crystal.

"It seems that with this clarity of thought, my strength has advanced further, and I will soon be able to touch upon the Principle!"

The ice shards contained neither the red of fresh blood nor the blackish-yellow of rotting intestines; only pure white, transparent crystals.

Looking at the shattered crystals, Hu Yu felt that his domain ability had increased once again.

His gaze swept over Zhang Huang, who was initially furious, but instantly turned icy cold, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Tiger Feather stretched out his leg and kicked Zhang Huang, then his body transformed into a giant white tiger, carrying a domain that covered a range of hundreds of meters as he charged toward the aircraft where the Cloud Wings were located.
