All Things Are Contracts

In the extreme north of the Myriad Spirits Realm, there was a vast secret realm called the Azure Wind Secret Realm. This place had been passed down for countless years with little interaction with the outside world. At the entrance of the Azure Wind Realm, several Spirit God Realm experts were bidding farewell to a young man. The youth was handsome and refined, and though only in his twenties, he had already reached the seventh stage of the Star Profound Realm, showing extraordinary talent.

“Young Master, we can only send you off this far. Thunder Lord has left prohibitions outside. If we go out, he will surely detect us, which would ruin your plan,” said a Spirit God Realm expert with a jade gourd on his back. He was one of the three Spirit God Realm experts who had attempted to kidnap the Holy Maiden Lixi from Wind Lord.

The young man nodded, revealing a smile. “Great-grandfather said that the Holy Maiden plays a crucial role in the upcoming changes in the world. If the Azure Wind Realm could obtain the Holy Maiden, we would surely pass through the calamity safely. The rash attack last time has made them prepared, so we can’t use that plan again. This time, I’ll disguise my identity and infiltrate the academy. With my talent, I can naturally get close to the Holy Maiden, and then find a way to bring her back.”

The Spirit God Realm expert nodded, “Everything has been arranged. We have hidden forces in the Academy Town that you can use. We hope for your success, Young Master.”

“Of course. Don’t worry, it won’t be long before I bring the Holy Maiden back,” the youth said confidently. He summoned a flying sword and departed on it.

After he left, the Spirit God Realm experts who had sent him off began to discuss.

“Isn’t Young Master Jade taking too big a risk?” one worried.

“You can’t catch a tiger cub without entering the tiger’s den. Don’t worry, no one can know the young master’s true identity. We’ve arranged a false identity for him. Once he contacts the Holy Maiden and finds a chance to be alone with her, he can use the spatial artifact to bring her back to our Azure Wind Realm. This task is suitable for him; you and I wouldn’t have a chance to get close to the Holy Maiden,” another said.

“With our young master’s talent and looks, he can naturally captivate thousands of girls. If we can make the Holy Maiden fall for him, even if Thunder Lord questions us, we’ll have an explanation.”

“You’re thinking too far ahead. Is this a honeypot scheme? But it’s a good idea. Our young master has the air of an immortal and is a once-in-a-millennium genius. How can the men out there compare?”

The Academy Town was unaware of the commotion outside the Azure Wind Realm. Yu Xuanyi was crossing thousands of mountains on his sword. As the great-grandson of the Azure Wind Realm’s ancestor and an unparalleled sword cultivator, he would surely be able to contact the Holy Maiden after disguising his identity and entering the academy.

On the fifteenth floor of the Boundless Tower, Mi Hongchen’s projection was engaged in fierce battle with Zhanyue. Her spear struck like lightning and rain, unceasing, while the fire dragon assisted from the side, occasionally unleashing dragon flames, putting Zhanyue in a sorry state. However, with the enhancement of the Phantom Step, it was also extremely difficult for ‘Mi Hongchen’ to injure Zhanyue.

“Such impressive spear technique, not inferior to my swordsmanship,” Zhanyue marveled. “This human-dragon pair coordinates perfectly. It seems I’ll have to defeat them one by one. The young dragon’s strength clearly hasn’t fully developed yet, so I’ll target it as a weak point first.”

Zhanyue used earth escape to dodge Mi Hongchen’s spear and appeared behind the red dragon. The dragon sensed the anomaly and, without turning, swept its tail, sending a huge force towards Zhanyue. Zhanyue continued to use earth escape, half of his body entering the ground to avoid this attack. Meanwhile, the red dragon turned around and opened its mouth at the half of Zhanyue’s body still above ground.

“You’re not the only one who can open your mouth!” Zhanyue threw a handful of pills, some falling into the red dragon’s mouth, others scattering on its face and the ground. Zhanyue quickly escaped, running far away.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!” Huge explosions rang out. Under the onslaught of fifth-grade pills, the red dragon’s head was covered in blood, and its entire body swayed.

“It’s still not dead?” Zhanyue was shocked by the dragon race’s vitality. The giant eagle had been killed outright by the explosions, but this dragon hadn’t died even with pills exploding in its mouth. And this was just a young dragon, not a fully grown one.

Controlling his flying sword to intercept the approaching Mi Hongchen, Zhanyue leapt onto the red dragon’s back and placed a finger on its head.

“Heaven-Burning Finger!” With all his might, he unleashed this ultimate technique that fused two extreme fires, instantly piercing through the red dragon’s skull and even creating a crater in the ground. After this fatal blow, the red dragon finally collapsed.

“Princess, I apologize for the offense!” Having dealt with the red dragon, the difficulty of the battle decreased significantly. Even so, Zhanyue had to use all his techniques to barely defeat Mi Hongchen. When Mi Hongchen’s figure dissipated, the entire world began to shake, as if some change had occurred in the Boundless Tower.

“The sixteenth floor is lit! He’s reached the sixteenth floor!” The real Mi Hongchen was watching the Boundless Tower from outside. Zhanyue had now matched her record.

At this moment, the Boundless Tower emitted another beam of light piercing the sky. Previously, it was a golden light pillar, but now it was a seven-colored light pillar. This seven-colored pillar caused a stir in the Academy Town .

Wind Lord Mumu Xingyun, in his office, stared at the seven-colored light pillar with his mouth agape, unable to close it for a long time.

“Do you know what this seven-colored light pillar represents?” A divine sense transmitted from afar, someone asking Wind Lord.

“Third Elder?” Wind Lord knew the questioner was the Moon Reflection Pavilion’s Third Elder, responsible for secretly protecting the Holy Maiden.

“The golden light pillar represents a cross-realm test. As for this seven-colored light pillar, I don’t know either, because since the Academy Town was built around the Boundless Tower, no one has ever activated the seven-colored light pillar test. It should be a level higher than the golden light pillar test,” Wind Lord speculated.

“How interesting. Could the Moon Reflection Pavilion have some contact with this person?” the Third Elder asked.

“Oh? Your Moon Reflection Pavilion is interested in this person too? I naturally won’t obstruct, but it all depends on his opinion. However, I don’t even know who’s taking the test yet,” Wind Lord smiled.

“This guy is still being so flamboyant. Reaching the tenth floor would have been enough, but now he’s caused such a commotion. I don’t know if this is good or bad,” the Illumination Goddess, hidden in the shadows, frowned slightly. She had originally planned to leave after Zhanyue successfully enrolled, but with Zhanyue causing such a stir, she felt uneasy and decided to stay a bit longer. Unless the Corpse Emperor broke his seal and came to take Zhanyue’s life personally, the Illumination Goddess was confident she could protect Zhanyue. She had intended for Zhanyue to play weak and grow stronger quietly. But clearly, Zhanyue was fired up, climbing higher and higher. Zhanyue himself also wanted to know where his limit was.

On the sixteenth floor, a sword appeared before Zhanyue, identical to the Heaven Punishing Demon Sword. It was to be Zhanyue’s opponent on this floor.

“Well, well, it can even do this?” Zhanyue, holding the Heaven Punishing Demon Sword, began to duel with this copy of the Heaven Punishing Demon Sword. The sword in his hand was also full of fighting spirit, as if wanting to crush this counterfeit.

In the Academy Town , atop the Illumination Tower, which illuminated the entire town, a white bird stood, its gaze fixed on the seven-colored light pillar emitted by the Boundless Tower.

“A seven-colored light pillar? Is this the posture of a sage? Is the human race about to have a new sage king? This isn’t good news for us Nighmares. I must report this to the Strategist quickly!”

This white bird was actually possessed by a Nighmare. Everyone knew that Nighmares feared the Illumination Tower, yet this white bird appeared brazenly at the top of the Illumination Tower, and flew away spreading its wings towards the sun in a challenging manner. If the Illumination Goddess were here, her jaw would drop in shock. Even the Corpse Emperor, the king of Nighmares, feared the sun and the Illumination Tower, yet this white bird wasn’t afraid at all! This even exceeded the Goddess’s understanding.
