The Contract is Completed

The next day, Leng Jiuming took the three of them across the sea in his mecha and returned to Eastsea City, without any more delays on the ferry.

"It's holiday time now, you can go home on your own. Zhang Wa, come with me, and I will arrange your identity." Leng Jiuming thought highly of Zhang Wa's talent, and believed that with proper training, he could become a titled Douluo in the future.

At the fork in the road, Leng Jiuming left with Zhang Wa, leaving Bai Xu and Gu Yue alone.

But these words reminded Bai Xu of his godfather and godmother. He heard that his godfather had been promoted again and moved to Skysea City. Although he had exchanged letters with them over the years, he never went back to visit them.

"Do you want to go back?"

Bai Xu thought for a while, shook his head, and decided to keep practicing. Eastsea City was close to the ocean, and the water element was very abundant, which was beneficial to his water cultivation. It was better to practice than to travel.

So the two of them planned to part ways after saying goodbye, but they both headed towards the Spirit Pagoda.

Gu Yue was puzzled: "Aren't you going home?"

Bai Xu waved his hand, "My home is too far away, and I can't go back. It's better to work hard during the holiday. When the Academy starts, I will surprise everyone with my progress."

Gu Yue snorted and thought that this guy was indeed a training maniac, but then she remembered that there was no one else around at the moment. She asked again, "Do you still remember what happened when you were unconscious a few days ago?"

"I don't know, what's wrong?"

"At that time, Teacher Leng fed you a spirit fruit, and then your body emitted a strange elemental light. You could not only master the metal element, but also the earth element and the water element, right?"

Bai Xu's eyes twitched, obviously surprised by this. Teacher Leng didn't tell him that Gu Yue knew his secret!

He sneered and said: "This matter is important, I can't reveal too much, but you, Gu Yue, I feel that you are very interested in me."

Gu Yue said with disdain: "Who is interested in you!"

"Then you really don't want to know?"

"I"

[Tell her this is an opportunity.]

Bai Xu was stunned and said meaningfully: "Go and ask Teacher Leng, just say I sent you."

Then he went on his way to his dormitory.

Only after the plane spirit gave him guidance did Bai Xu say what he just said.

He hurriedly returned to the dormitory, closed the door, and said doubtfully, "Come out, talk to me."

Bai Xu's martial spirit activated on its own, and black and yellow energy flew out of his eyes, floating in front of him and converging into a hazy and chaotic mass. It emitted an ethereal voice, "Sir, please listen to me."

"Speak."

"Your life cultivation is too strong, but your soul cultivation is only level 30. I can only rely on your martial soul to survive. The higher your soul cultivation is, the stronger my ability is."

"Get to the point!"

"I can't hide the secrets from you anymore. If you don't strengthen your martial spirit training, I'm afraid you will be exposed under the eyes of the current master of the plane."

Bai Xu was shocked: "What?!"

Bai Xu had no strength to fight against Tang Hao, who was the master of the plane. If he was exposed, he could only pray that Tang Hao would spare his life. But with plane spirit within Bai Xu, Tang Hao would probably slap Bai Xu to death with one palm, and then say scornfully: No one can ruin San'er's ten thousand year plan!

Bai Xu said anxiously:,"I will go to practice right away, but why did you ask me to reveal the news to Gu Yue just now? Don't you know that she is the Silver Dragon King?"

"Sir, the soul beasts are currently our allies. And I really don't want them to become extinct on the Douluo Continent, so I hope you can help me." The spirit of the plane pleaded.

"I refuse. A showdown with them is too risky for me. With my cultivation level, I have no chance of resisting." Bai Xu said firmly.

"Sir, please wait. Listen to me. I have only a trace of power left. I can bless you with some luck. This luck can't give you any opportunities. It can only make you luckier. But the fortune of the Douluo Continent is now almost concentrated on Tang Wulin, and I can't take it from him.

The resources of the Douluo Continent are almost all divided up by the soul master forces, the Spirit Pagoda, Shrek Academy, Tang Sect, and the three major Empires. With my ability, I really can't provide any resources for you to practice.

My only hope now is to let the soul beasts form an alliance with you, and wait until you grow to a certain level. Then you can help them restore their status, and they can cultivate you with the resources of the soul beasts. This is the only thing I can do."

"There are no resources."

Bai Xu murmured softly. The plane spirit was right. Don't look at Bai Xu now. After joining the Spirit Pagoda, as Leng Jiuming said, the current Spirit Pagoda was just a machine that served the Qiangu Family.

If he wanted to get the resources of the Spirit Pagoda, he had to either become their dog, or become a part of the Qiangu family like Gu Yue in the original novel.

The Tang Sect and Shrek were no exception. They would observe and train him for a long time to ensure his loyalty to Shrek. It didn't matter if he said so, Bai Xu was confident that he could fake it.

But the techniques, fighting abilities, and skills he was currently using were obviously not from martial spirit, and his whole body was full of mystery.

It was okay to be a stranger. If someone knew a little bit about his background, they would realize that Bai Xu was special.

Because Bai Xu's ability was so powerful that it could change the status between ordinary people and soul masters.

If an ordinary person could practice Bai Xu's method, then he could use his ordinary body to reach the power of the martial spirit, or even surpass it.

What would happen then?

Who would be willing to settle for the ordinary? Could a soul master step on the heads of ordinary people? When the whole empire rose in rebellion, how would the Federation deal with itself?

Everyone would jump out and shout: Princes, generals, and ministers, would you rather have the seed?

Bai Xu could still see this basic political vision. But these reasons were not enough for him to take risks and cooperate with the soul beasts.

"If I don't have the resources, practice slower. There will always be a day when I grow up. Don't belittle yourself. You helped me embark on the path of cultivation. I will definitely repay you in the future!" Bai Xu gently stroked the hazy mass of air and lowered his hand. He made a decision.

But after a period of silence, the spirit of the plane said: "But I'm afraid I won't be able to survive that day. Once Tang Hao finishes devouring me, I will disappear, and you will be exposed to him in the end. I can't be sure when that day will come."

"Three years, five years, maybe one year?"

???!!!

Bai Xu was shocked. He slapped the air ball hard and yelled, "You jerk, I really want to beat you up! Why didn't you tell me this earlier? Why are you telling me now?"

Bai Xu's breathing became fast, and his heart raced. He tried to calm himself down, sat on the bed, and recalled the original plot carefully.

Tang Wulin's growth had little to do with Tang Hao. Ah Yin gave him some opportunities. Tang Hao was only summoned by Tang San to appear when the Abyss Saint invaded at the end. He killed the BOSS with a hammer and then merged into the abyss plane.

"I can't remember, but at least Tang Hao probably won't act until Tang Wulin becomes an adult."

Bai Xu thought again and said, "I should contact the Silver Dragon King secretly and communicate with her clearly before we can meet. I will set the conditions. If she doesn't agree, we'll break up."

Bai Xu felt a sudden urgency. Time was running out. There seemed to be a warning behind his back. How could he sleep peacefully?

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Fortunately, Gu Yue also stayed at the Spirit Pagoda that night. The distance was not far, and the plane spirit could still affect her.

Late at night, in Gu Yue's room, she finally waited for the plane spirit to come again. The original aura was revealed, and her purple eyes lit up the darkness.

"Spirit of the plane, show yourself !" Gu Yue assumed the posture of a superior and spoke condescendingly like a god king.

"Soul Beast Co-Master. Half Dragon God."

"It's me!"

"I have chosen a successor to carry the hope of the Douluo Continent. His rise will light the way forward for the Douluo Continent." The plane spirit said.

Gu Yue frowned, wondering why the plane spirit would say such things when seeing her.

"But I will be destroyed, the plane will be taken over by those who are interested, the soul beast will cease to exist, and mankind will attain enlightenment. Then there will be no place for you in the world!"

!!!

These words were not concealed in any way. The space around Gu Yue rippled slightly and formed a vortex. Several figures of fierce beasts walked out of it, with terrified expressions on their faces as they worshiped the Lord.

"The spirit of the plane will be destroyed? Who did it? The God Realm?" Gu Yue exclaimed.

The plane spirit did not answer directly and continued mysteriously, "I can't bear the end of the soul beast, so I came here to remind you that my successor is the last hope."

"Do you want me to find him?"

"No, he came by himself. But don't worry about the status of your soul beasts. You can witness it and sign the soul contract to achieve cooperation."

When the beasts heard this, they all frowned and felt something was wrong.

Gu Yue looked troubled. She saw the content of the contract, which contained only one clause: both parties could not harm each other, otherwise their souls would fall into eternal hell and suffer endless torment.

Can she sign it? This one doesn't seem to be a threat to soul beasts.

The hazy voice came again.

"You are injured, and you have to rebuild in order to integrate into human society. The term of this contract is only before the Title Douluo. If either of you two reaches the Title Douluo, the contract will be invalid."

Gu Yue thought, "Before the Title Douluo, it means that the opponent also needs time to buffer. One more enemy is not as good as one more ally. I also want to see the choice of this face spirit."

But she did not say it clearly. She looked at Di Tian, who was standing aside, and gave him a signal with her eyes. It was like saying, Di Tian, what do you think?

Di Tian hurriedly reported, "Lord, we think it is feasible! This contract does not harm the interests of our soul beasts. The situation is already the worst. If the spirit of the plane does not exist, the God Realm will not care whether we live or die."

The other fierce beasts all nodded. When it came to life and death, no one could stay out of it. The God Realm had taken action. Could they still stay in the core of the Star Dou?

"My chosen one can defeat the past, present, and future. He can see everything you do at this moment. The sky and the earth are falling. Cause and effect are difficult to survive. Douluo is covered by the gods. He has what it takes to defeat Gods."

Bai Xu, who was watching from the perspective of the plane spirit, said, "Don't talk nonsense. I just read the original work. It can't be compared to the past, present, and future."

After hearing this, the fierce beasts suddenly realized that the inheritor must be an unknown god, and their faces looked happy. They had a reliable ally!

Gu Yue was also a little surprised. Although she felt that the spirit of the plane was exaggerated, she still signed the soul contract. At the same time, Bai Xu on the other side also signed the soul contract.

The next moment, endless white light bloomed. The contract had been fulfilled, and those who broke their promises would be punished by eating rocks.

Hmm, will suffer in hell.

An unknown passage emerged in the room, and a hazy figure seemed to come from the end of time, walking in a hurry. It was impossible to look directly at it. The posture exuded endless majesty.

However, the light dissipated, and the person who walked out of the passage was a child of the same age as Gu Yue.

He looked embarrassed, dragging a handful of dirt on his hand, and smiled under the gaze of everyone. "We meet again, Gu Yue!"

Gu Yue couldn't hold back at all. "How could it be you!? The spirit of the plane, give me an explanation!"

The purple eyes were extremely majestic, and there was a faint roar of a dragon. The billowing air waves were so shocking that Bai Xu could barely keep himself steady. However, the spirit of the plane had long since disappeared. Exhausted, it had fallen into a deep sleep in Bai Xu's martial spirit.

Only Bai Xu and a group of fierce beast bosses were left at the scene.

"Ahem. Yes, I am the one who wants to form an alliance with you!" Bai Xu said calmly with his back to everyone, standing with his hands behind his back like an expert.

"Only you!? A Soul Elder boy?" Di Tian questioned.

"Indeed, my current strength is not equal to yours. To be fair, I am not qualified to form an alliance with you. But I know things that you don't know," Bai Xu said.

"Say!"

"First of all, let me tell you something. The spirit of the plane was swallowed up by someone with intentions. Do you know who it is?"

Gu Yue's eyes narrowed slightly. "Stop being so pretentious and tell me!"

"Tang Hao, have you ever heard of him?"

"Tang..." Di Tian murmured, suddenly remembering something, and said, "Is he related to the one who became a god 20,000 years ago?"

Bai Xu nodded. "He is the father of the God of the Sea and the God of Shura, the two gods in one, Tang San."

All the fierce beasts were speechless for a moment, only Mr. Xiong roared, feeling dissatisfied.

"He is now eating away at the origin of the plane. If he succeeds, what kind of situation will you fall into?" Bai Xu's words instantly made the soul beasts think.

The fierce beasts showed bitterness on their faces as they all thought of the ending.

"Being exterminated?" Bai Xu said what they were thinking.

But he shook his head. "No, he will give you development and let you be free."

Bai Xu's words surprised them. Would the God Realm let them be free and develop?

"Because of your development, your progress will never surpass that of humans. It's hard to say whether there will be Silver Dragon King Gu Yue by then, but there will definitely be Gu Yue from the God Realm.

He will influence you in a subtle way, allowing you to get closer to humans and gradually become more like humans. Let's live together."

"Then he will use the emotions between humans as a chain, so that you are willing to provide soul rings to humans, and you will also be grateful. Soul beasts cannot die. If you die, the soul master will also perish."

"I don't know if such an ending will happen. Is it what the Silver Dragon King wants? Sounds good, right? Maybe the God Realm will generously grant you the position of God King."

Gu Yue frowned, feeling unhappy, as if everything Bai Xu said would come true.

Bai Xu's strategy in front of her was indeed good, but she questioned, "How do you know what the future will be like? Are we soul beasts destined to be inferior to humans?"

"From the moment you underestimated human emotions and entered human society with your own body, the outcome was already doomed, Gu Yue." Bai Xu saw through her and pointed out the contradiction.

"If you soul beasts can develop beyond humans, then the one standing here today to form an alliance would be Tang Wulin instead of me."
