My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

"Because I originally deduced that we have all signed a contract with the gods and offered sacrifices, and that our souls and bodies belong to the gods, only those of us who have made a contract with the gods have the right to kill or control each other. Judging from your act of making me sign a contract to sell myself into slavery, I deduce that you are not a new type of celestial master who has made a contract with the gods, but rather a traditional celestial master of the old school who cultivates himself. People like you should not be able to make a contract with us new types of celestial masters."

Zhang Hao was slightly surprised by the idea revealed in the other person's words: "So, you mean those of you who gain power by signing contracts with the gods are called the new type of Celestial Masters, while the old school who cultivate alone are called the old Celestial Masters? Why do you make this distinction?"

The other party was clearly a seasoned veteran, as evidenced by Zhang Hao's reaction, which showed that he was unfamiliar with the matter of signing a document.

He composed himself briefly before continuing, "Because we have acquired greater power, and we will ultimately dominate the Three Realms. The new Celestial Masters are the future, while the old Celestial Masters are nothing more than outdated relics to be discarded by the times. We naturally identify more with our own kind, and as for the old faction, they have always been our prey."

Zhang Hao's expression hardened after hearing this.

"So, you specifically hunt down those old-school Taoist masters?"

If that's the case, then we must notify all the Celestial Masters in the circle as soon as possible, and also inform the Underworld to prepare for defense. Otherwise, the foundation of stability in the Three Realms might be turned upside down.

“That’s right.” The man glanced at Zhang Hao’s slightly narrowed, dangerous eyes, coughed, and explained, “But you don’t need to worry too much for now. Currently, we’re only conducting internal hunting drills in the South China Sea area, and there’s no sign of it spreading to other parts of the country. In my estimation, only after we’ve mastered a sufficient amount of divine power will we be able to hunt down the old-school Celestial Masters. And those who have already started targeting the old-school are all top-tier contract signers. As far as I know, there are no more than three such experts in the entire new school.”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hao initially breathed a sigh of relief, but after hearing the last few sentences, he deeply felt the threat lurking within.

This message must be delivered to Yama, the King of Hell, as soon as possible, so that he can quickly dispatch underworld ghost messengers to strengthen patrols and protect those old-school celestial masters.

"I was hoping to chat with you a little longer, but it seems unnecessary now. Alright, I have things to do, let's go out."

He had used a special secret method to shield the conversation from being overheard by Li Jingyun outside.

He began to cast a spell, and a large amount of gloomy energy surged from his palm. This gloomy energy seemed to be being silently and slowly absorbed into this dantian space.

The flowing yin energy was vast and surging, like an inexhaustible source of living water.

The man next to him stared wide-eyed: "You can actually release so much Yin energy in one go? Aren't you afraid of dying from the depletion of your Yin energy?"

The man swallowed hard and continued, "This kind of death must be extremely difficult for a spiritualist who practices Yin-Yang magic to bear, right?"

Moreover, even if a normal person cultivates special magic, it is impossible for them to release such a huge amount of yin energy at once.

Both the human body and the soul require a balance between Yin and Yang. Even though the soul is predominantly Yin, it still maintains a delicate balance. Excessively releasing Yin energy is tantamount to draining life force!
Zhang Hao completely disregarded his shock. After releasing a large amount of Yin energy, he began to regulate his own aura, covering his body with a special Yin-Yang void energy.

As early as when he was first trapped in this dantian space, he had secretly studied the energy composition and spatial sealing characteristics of this place.

As expected, he discovered that as long as he used the Yin-Yang Void Qi, he could free his entire soul from this place.

The Yin-Yang Void Qi is derived from the Yin-Yang Qi. It is as ethereal as nothingness, and unless one has an extremely high level of cultivation, one cannot even perceive the existence of this Qi.

He calmly enveloped himself in the aura of yin and yang, and then helped the other man to also be enveloped in a special yin and yang aura. Afterwards, he said to the man, "Close your eyes." The man closed his eyes as instructed.

He felt his shoulder being gripped, and his whole body seemed to be covered by a cool, strange aura. Then he was pushed forward slowly by the other person.

As he walked, the person who was pushing him suddenly stopped.

"Alright, you can open your eyes now," Zhang Hao said calmly.

Opening his eyes, the man looked around and realized they were in a secluded alley. The demolition area was eerily quiet in the dead of night.

Zhang Hao said casually, "Now tell me everything you know about obtaining divine power through signing a contract. Remember, tell me everything, no detail is too small. If you dare to disobey my orders, the contract will deem you a traitor, and you will be instantly obliterated."

The threat was far too deadly. The man's expression changed several times after hearing it. Before explaining, he said, "I really dislike being threatened. If you want me to do things for you in the future, don't threaten me with death again."

Zhang Hao waved his hand, indicating that he understood.

The man then began to explain how the new-style Taoist priests acquired their power.

"I'm not entirely clear on the specifics. Anyway, on a mysterious night, I had a dream in which a strange voice told me: The rules of the three realms are about to collapse, and the power of the gods will be transferred to the chosen ones. We will become the new order setters. In other words, after we gain power, we will be able to control the order of the three realms."

Zhang Hao observed the other person's expression thoughtfully. This person didn't seem to be lying, so his words should be credible, since the contract didn't give any warning that he was lying.

"We are currently in the process of becoming stronger. Even the strongest among us have only progressed from hunting down fellow disciples of the new faction to hunting down the old faction's celestial masters. Once we become stronger through these battles, we will be able to form an alliance with absolute power and become the new rulers who will replace the Underworld and the Heavenly Court!"

After saying this, the man suddenly laughed. There was an eerie quality to his laughter, like someone in excruciating pain trying to suppress their cries, instead forcing out a mocking laugh.

Zhang Hao remained unmoved by the situation, simply gazing calmly at the person before him.

"You don't seem surprised at all. Did you see through me all along?"

The man suddenly burst into laughter. As soon as the laughter began, the contract for selling himself into slavery that had been signed suddenly appeared out of thin air, and a bolt of heavenly lightning, recognized by the rules of heaven and earth, struck down from the contract!
Thunder roared down upon the man's soul!

With a deafening roar, white smoke billowed into the sky, as if something had shattered completely.

Zhang Hao did not let his guard down. He stared at everything in front of him and suddenly became alert.

As the white smoke gradually dissipated, he could clearly sense that the person who had broken the signed contract had indeed been completely annihilated, their soul scattered and gone forever! (End of Chapter)
