Chapter 61 Contract with Hyotei?
What is the strength of the company you're looking to sign a contract with?
Dai Huabin did not answer immediately.
He organized his thoughts in his mind. He had been holding this in for a long time, planning it since the first day he transmigrated, and now he finally had the chance to speak.
"Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion".
"One of the three Heavenly Kings of the far north, with approximately 400,000 years of cultivation."
"Four hundred thousand years of cultivation."
Electrolux's voice carried a thoughtful tone.
"According to the classification standards of the Holy Demon Continent, a soul beast of this age should correspond to the ninth rank."
"Yes," Dai Huabin replied.
"According to the realm system of the Holy Demon Continent, she should be at the ninth level without a doubt, but I have no way of judging the specific level of the ninth level. In the information I know, there is no such precise comparison."
Electrolux pondered for a moment.
"A ninth-tier magical beast is considered high-tier. But the figure of 400,000 years..."
His tone suddenly became more casual.
"It's just a small scorpion."
Dai Huabin was taken aback.
The 400,000-year-old Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, the absolute overlord of the far north, became "a little scorpion" in the mouth of this Necromancer Saint.
But thinking about it carefully, it's not surprising.
Electrolux's strength during his lifetime had already reached the threshold of godhood, and in some areas he had even surpassed ordinary gods.
A 400,000-year-old soul beast is indeed a junior in his eyes.
"Elder Yi, do you mean... a soul beast of this strength level is within your capabilities?"
Don't be too happy yet.
Electrolux's voice calmed down.
"I'm talking about my peak performance. Right now, I've only recovered 30% of my divine consciousness, so there's only so much I can do."
Constructing the contract array isn't the problem, but getting a soul beast with 400,000 years of cultivation to willingly accept a blood pact...
Electrolux paused for a moment.
"The point isn't with me, it's with you. You have to convince her."
Dai Huabin nodded: "I understand."
"A blood pact is different from a regular contract."
Electrolux's tone turned serious.
"Both parties must act voluntarily; forcing it will only lead to a backlash from the contract. With your current strength, you would be certain to die from the backlash."
"I know."
"Since you know she exists and where she is, you must have something to say to persuade her, right?"
Dai Huabin quickly went through it in his mind.
He has the chips.
First, the information about the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow. The Ice Emperor needs to break through her bottleneck, and the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow is crucial to her.
Secondly, regarding the Snow Empress. He knew everything about the relationship between the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor; this kind of information from the future was something no one else could provide.
"have."
Dai Huabin answered crisply and decisively.
"Specifically?"
"It's not convenient to go into details right now."
Dai Huabin replied, "Some information involves her relationship with another Northern Heavenly King by her side. I have enough leverage to make her at least willing to sit down and talk."
Electrolux did not press the matter.
Dai Huabin is very grateful for this.
Electrolux's personality wasn't like some of his older colleagues who wanted to get to the bottom of everything. He was more like a worldly scholar who knew when to ask questions and when to wait.
When are you planning to go?
"There are still two months until the holiday," Dai Huabin replied. "I plan to go there during the holiday."
"Two months…" Electrolux repeated the time.
"For me, that's enough. Two months is enough time for me to set up the basic blood pact array in your Spiritual sea. But there's something I need to tell you in advance!"
"Please speak."
"The construction of the blood pact array itself is not technically difficult; this is one of my areas of expertise. However, whether the pact can be successfully signed depends on three factors."
Electrolux's voice was calm and unhurried:
"First, you must gain the other person's genuine approval, even if it's just for a moment of complete trust."
Secondly, your Spiritual strength must be strong enough at the moment of signing, otherwise the torrent of your soul with 400,000 years of cultivation will directly overwhelm your Spiritual sea.
The third contract, once signed, is irrevocable. You and that little scorpion are bound together for life and death. If she dies, you will lose at least half of your cultivation, but her strength far surpasses yours; in this situation, if she dies, you will die too!
Dai Huabin took a deep breath.
We will live and die together.
He understood the weight of those four words perfectly.
"I've thought about it," Dai Huabin replied. "No problem."
Electrolux remained silent for a moment. A faint ripple spread across the surface of the silvery-white light.
"Alright." His tone suddenly became more relaxed.
"To be honest, I've always been very curious about the soul power execution system, spirit rings, and soul bones of this world. I've been asleep for so long, and now that I've finally woken up, I have to find something to do."
Dai Huabin couldn't help but chuckle.
The dignified Holy Spirit of the Dead speaks like a retired old man who can't stay at home.
"Thank you very much, Elder Yi."
"No need," Electrox replied. "Your Spiritual sea is my only abode. Your well-being is my well-being. It's mutually beneficial. Besides…"
He paused.
"I've always remembered what you said last time."
Which sentence?
"Change your destiny and protect the ones you love."
Electrolux's voice was calm.
"I've lived too long and seen too many geniuses boast and die because of their own ambition. But when you say this, you're thinking of that little girl who wiped your sweat."
Dai Huabin remained silent for a moment.
"For that reason alone, I'm willing to help you." Electrox's tone held a hint of a smile. "A person who does great things must have a soft spot in their heart, so they won't go astray."
The dialogue in the mind slowly settled down after that sentence.
Electrolux's silvery-white light ball quieted down again, and began to steadily absorb the life force from the Eye of Life, accumulating energy for the construction of the magic circle over the next two months.
Dai Huabin's consciousness slowly withdrew from his Spiritual sea.
The wind on the windowsill had cooled down, and the clouds outside had changed from orange-red to grayish-purple.
"Hua Bin".
A voice came from behind.
Dai Huabin turned his head.
Zhu Lu had already finished organizing her notes and was standing beside the table watching him.
"There are still twenty minutes left in the afternoon's practical class."
Dai Huabin jumped down from the windowsill and stretched his wrists.
"Let's go."
"Were you cultivating again?" Zhu Lu tilted her head. "You've been sitting on the windowsill without moving for almost half an hour. I called you twice but you didn't respond."
"Think about something."
"What's up?"
"Holiday arrangements".
Zhu Lu did not press the matter further.
She picked up the coats on the corner of the table, handed one to Dai Huabin, and put the other on herself.
The two walked out of the dormitory building side by side, crossed the corridor, and headed towards the training ground.
