All Things Are Contracts

In the sky, Yunyao spread her wings and soared, her wings shimmering with points of light like stars. She wore a simple white dress that complemented her pale blue feathers, fluttering in the wind like a dream. The feather named “Frost Spring Feather” was not only light and soft but also imbued with mysterious ice power.

As she flew over mountains and rivers, her wings brushed against the trees, bringing a cool breeze, as if the breath of ice and snow was spreading. She became one with the sky, wind, and clouds.

The Frost Spring Feather was a treasure specially forged for her by the Mountain Goblin ancestor. It contained ancient ice power, and each flap of the wings would spread a chill, freezing everything around.

Yunyao played in the sky for a long time before landing, in a good mood. After all, these obtained treasures were real and would still exist even after leaving the Heavenly Book world. This feather had again raised her power to a new level. It was interesting to think that not long ago, she had lost a red feather and now gained a blue one. All these changes were because of one person.

At this moment, Zhanyue was putting all his effort into absorbing every bit of knowledge taught by the Mountain Goblin ancestor. The profundity and complexity of incantations far exceeded his imagination. Fortunately, he was already an alchemist with mental power far beyond ordinary people, and mental power was what incantations needed most.

“Eight Great Divine Incantations, in so many days I’ve only mastered the ‘Great Strength Vajra Incantation’ and the ‘Wind and Rain Summoning Incantation’. As for the later incantations, they’re still far off. With my current mental power, I’m afraid I can’t chant them,” Zhanyue wasn’t one to aim too high, knowing to progress gradually.

“Elder, thank you so much for these days,” Zhanyue sincerely thanked her. Without her careful guidance, it would have been very difficult for him to enter the path of incantations. He couldn’t help but think of the Celestial Master Zhang from the previous world. How did he obtain these Eight Great Divine Incantations, and how did he master the first two incantations? He now determined that Zhang had indeed mastered the ‘Great Strength Vajra Incantation’ and the ‘Wind and Rain Summoning Incantation’, which helped the Blue Hill army achieve several great victories. That world still held many secrets waiting to be uncovered, and Zhanyue felt a bit regretful.

“Your talent is not bad. This ‘Spirit Energy Incantation’ of mine, none of my descendants could master it. I can pass it on to you,” the Mountain Goblin ancestor was also very happy. The incantation she had obtained by chance finally had a successor, although this person wasn’t from the Mountain Goblin Clan. But it was clear that he was very friendly towards the Mountain Goblins.

Soon after, Yunyao walked in from outside.

“Thank you, Elder, for the gift,” Yunyao said calmly, still with that frosty face, though her tone had softened a lot.

The Frost Spring Feather forged for her by the Mountain Goblin ancestor exceeded her expectations.

“You little girl, your temperament is really cold, like an iceberg. Zhanyue, you’ve got such a wife, you must take good care of her,” the Mountain Goblin ancestor had clearly misunderstood their relationship.

“I…” Yunyao was about to explain but then fell silent. Explaining these things would only make it more awkward. What’s true can’t be faked, and what’s fake can’t be true. Now wasn’t the time to talk about this.

“Elder, about the divine artifact…” Yunyao got back to business. She had been in this world for quite a while now.

“Come with me,” the Mountain Goblin ancestor flew up and landed on her chair. Then four Mountain Goblins carried her deeper into the cave. Zhanyue and Yunyao followed closely behind.

Deep in the cave was a mysterious space, a huge cavern that was very spacious. Only a lonely sword was stuck there, waiting for someone to take it away.

“This is one of the seven divine artifacts, the Sword of Courage. If you can pull it out, you can take it away. I have no objections,” the ancestor pointed to the sword stuck in the empty ground.

Zhanyue walked over. More than half of this sword was stuck in the ground, but the exposed blade was already completely decayed, worse than ordinary swords. Could this be a divine artifact?

Zhanyue gripped the equally rusty hilt and pulled hard. With a “pop” sound, the sword broke into two halves. Zhanyue only pulled out the half above ground.

“This…” Zhanyue looked at the half sword in his hand, not knowing what to say. Is this really a divine artifact? Just this? Just this?

“I don’t know what’s going on either. Anyway, this is how it is now,” the Mountain Goblin ancestor said seriously. “This is indeed one of the seven divine artifacts, the Sword of Courage, used to kill the disaster beast symbolizing fear.”

Zhanyue dug hard, excavating the other half of the sword from underground. However, the broken sword couldn’t be reattached.

Yunyao walked over, frowning at the sword broken in half. How could this thing defeat a disaster beast? What a joke.

“Well, should we each take half?” Zhanyue handed over half of the broken sword.

“You keep it. Maybe there’s some secret hidden in the sword,” Yunyao couldn’t be bothered to take the broken sword.

“So, do you still want to go kill that disaster beast?” the Mountain Goblin ancestor asked. She didn’t want to see such excellent young people risk their lives.

“Yes,” they answered in unison.

Leaving the cave, Zhanyue and Yunyao spread their wings and flew into the sky, leaving the Mountain Goblin camp.

On the ground, the Mountain Goblin king looked at the departing duo and asked confusedly, “Ancestor, is that broken sword really the divine artifact Sword of Courage? It’s no different from scrap iron.”

The Mountain Goblin ancestor said meaningfully, “What’s important is not the sword, but the courage to face fear. That’s the real Sword of Courage. Let’s hope they can succeed.”

“According to the elder’s words, the monster we encountered in the sea before is the giant beast symbolizing fear among the seven disaster beasts. Let’s choose it as our first enemy,” Yunyao said.

Zhanyue took out the Sword of Courage, which was now intact, showing no signs of being broken. “Can this thing really kill that giant beast?” Zhanyue expressed confusion.

“Hm? How did it get fixed?” Yunyao saw the intact rusty sword in Zhanyue’s hand. This sword had broken into two halves right before her eyes.

“Secret. Trade it for your secret,” Zhanyue once again showed his mischievous smile, making Yunyao clench her fists.

Soon, they revisited their old haunt. From far away, they could see the terrifying monster as big as a hill. Fortunately, this was the ocean, and the towering giant beast seemed somewhat small in the sea. But even smaller were Zhanyue and Yunyao.

“Wait,” Zhanyue suddenly stopped Yunyao.

Yunyao turned her head, looking at Zhanyue in confusion.

“Before we start fighting, let’s add a buff,” Zhanyue said words Yunyao didn’t understand, then began a long chant. After a long time, the chant ended, and two golden light pillars fell on their heads. They both felt their strength increase.

“Great Strength Vajra Incantation, an incantation that can increase strength and defense. Incantations are indeed a marvelous power, seemingly able to communicate with heaven and earth to obtain power. Let’s go.”

Bathed in golden light, the two charged towards the terrifying mountain-like giant beast.
