Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 709 Blood Oath

"First of all, although Bai Mo looks like a dead man on the surface, he is actually very arrogant. So if you want to make him show his weakness, it's best to provoke him at the beginning of the battle. It's best to do it in an unintentional way, such as making him feel that you don't take him seriously."

"After the stimulation, given that guy's temper, he will definitely rush over without a word using the Dragon Breaking Flash, and he will definitely not reveal his true colors right away. This is the best time to trick him. If it were me, I would definitely..."

"Also, let me tell you, although that guy's Shadow King is a scoundrel, based on my experience of sparring with him so many times, his Shadow King actually has a flaw that he himself hasn't even noticed..."

"Oh, right, there's also the Blade Spirit of the Shadow Queen. That thing..."

"..."

"..."

"Well, if you include the spatial ability turning technique I personally told him, that's about it. So, Brother Black Sword, are you sure you can deal with him while banning his Abyss Form?"

A frivolous and lascivious voice sounded from under the dim sky. On the battlefield that was shattered by the battle between the two sides, Randy was seen scratching the side of his face with his index finger, his eyes wandering back and forth between the white mage wrapped in bandages and the virtual screen projected by the brand next to him. He coughed twice with some lack of confidence and said something else:

"Ahem, that... ahem, anyway, this is what you see, Old White. Let me make it clear in advance that I am doing this for your own good! Aren't you always thinking about defeating that monster Moon Demon? So you see, haven't I found you an opponent who can help you make further progress?!"

"..."

On the battlefield, the white mage, who was wrapped up like a dumpling in bandages because he was reluctant to use more expensive healing potions, did not respond to Randy's words. He just stared at the other party expressionlessly with the eye that was exposed from the bandages, which made Randy feel scared.

"Uh, Old White, why don't you say something? It's really scary to be staring at me like that."

"..."

"Well...how about I give you the coordinates of a space here, and we can fight each other..."

"make a deal."

"???"

Before Randy could finish, the white devil, who had a blank expression on his face, suddenly spoke, causing Randy's eyes to widen.

"Wait...wait a minute? Shouldn't you refuse at this time, Old White?"

"It's a fact that I lost, what's the problem?"

"I… Shit, you are so shameless that you learn and sell it so quickly."

"Help me have a chance to go further, those are your own words."

"I TM..."

On the battlefield, the White Demon replied expressionlessly, leaving Randy at a loss for words. The White Demon glanced at the virtual screen that had already finished playing, then looked at Xin Lailai beside him. After a moment of silence, he turned his gaze back to Randy and said:

"When will the covenant be signed?"

"Don't even think about fooling me again... uh, about the covenant. Wait a minute, I'll ask them."

Randy said, raising his hand to signal the White Mage not to worry, then opened the communication channel, selected one of the names, and sent a communication request to the other party.

"Hello, Gray? It's me, Randy. Have you finished the battle over there?"

"It's just finished. Haha, what a coincidence! We're almost done here too. Uh, what about Xiaoyun? Don't worry, she's fine, not hurt at all~!"

"By the way, I told you something, uh...how should I put it, you should still remember the blood oath covenant, right? The White Demon and I met someone here. After talking to each other, I felt that he was quite pleasing to the eye. I planned to bring him into our blood oath covenant, so I came to tell you about it."

"Yes! It's that black sword! Yuan... Ahem, Senior Yuan should have mentioned it to you. I see he still has a token from Yuan in his hand. Do you want to confirm it?"

"Haha, fine! It's settled then! Uh, who wins? Ahem... let's talk about this when I come back. I'm going to hang up first! I'll call you when we sign the alliance!"

Randy took out something like a microphone from the storage space. After the man talked into the microphone for a while, he put it back into the storage space. Then he looked at Xin Lailai and Bai Mo, grinned, and said:

"Done! Xiao Hui has been convinced. Now it's up to you, Lao Bai!"

"?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo's eyes showed a hint of bewilderment, and then his gaze turned slightly cold, and he said:

"That's not mentioned in the contract."

"Well, isn't this convenient? You see, neither of us has the contact information of Moon Demon, so it must be you, a serious reincarnation hunter, who should contact him~!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo was silent for a while, and finally looked at Randy deeply. After memorizing this account in his mind, he silently opened his contact list, selected one of the avatars, and sent a message to the other party.

……

……

Temporary world number 598-03-12.

Boom——! !

Dazzling golden thunder streaked across the sky and landed heavily in a canyon. Amidst the deafening roar, it spread out into golden arcs of lightning all over the sky, revealing two figures in the middle of them.

"Hoo...Hoo...Hoo! It should be okay for now if we hide here. Bell, where is the monster chasing us now?"

In the canyon, Yamu, who had an extremely obvious sword wound on his chest and a chill emanating from the wound, and Bell Crany, who was also covered in wounds, were leaning against the rock wall, gasping for breath.

"That... that Miss Moon Demon seems to have suddenly stopped moving."

In response to Yamu's question, Bell first quickly closed his eyes and sensed the scout familiar he had contracted. After receiving the other party's vision, a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes, and he answered Yamu while panting.

Suddenly there was no movement?

Upon hearing this, Yamu's expression slightly changed, and he continued to ask:

"Can you describe it in detail?"

"Uh... I just stood on a cliff, and didn't move at all, as if I was in a daze."

Standing on a cliff and daydreaming?

Hearing Bell's description, Yamu's eyes showed a hint of doubt, but as the piercing coldness came from his chest, he sighed lightly, rubbed his hair, and said:
“Forget it, let’s quickly figure out a way to drag it out. Tsk, it’s Silver Moon and No Moon, and now there’s Moon Demon. Has the Silver Moon Heritage become some kind of foster care facility? Why are there so many problem children?!”

Yamu couldn't help but feel a headache when he thought about the opponent's Moon Wolf ability that was completely unable to find any breakthrough points and just happened to suppress his elemental system, as well as the complete inability to communicate and interact effectively... He even doubted whether he was facing a living person or a corpse.

How can I talk to that guy without revealing my true identity...

Yamu racked his brains to think, feeling that he was in a dilemma. He looked around him, with ideas flashing through his mind one after another.

ambush?

No, the monster's Frost Moon Territory is totally unreasonable. It would be meaningless even if I set up a home field.

Trigger a big one? No, doing so is completely gambling on the opponent's elemental immunity and the upper limit of the effectiveness of the world's protection. If he is not careful, he will be working for the opponent's Moon Shadow King in vain.

beg for mercy?

Don't be ridiculous. If communication was useful, they wouldn't be forced to run all over the map by the other side! He swore that he had never seen such a difficult person to communicate with in his life!
"Tsk, this doesn't work, and that doesn't work either. Fuck him, what on earth is wrong with Paradise to arrange an opponent with elemental immunity and world protection for me..."

“Brother Ya…Brother Yamu! Ahem…Ahem! Someone is following us! It’s the lady named Hun Yue!”

Under the rock wall, Yamu, who felt his brain cells were burning like crazy, was cursing and greeting people. At this moment, Bell's expression suddenly changed and he spoke hurriedly.

Soul Moon? The soul-type follower beside the other party?

Hearing Bell's reminder, Yamu's expression changed slightly. Although he could kill the top-tier soul system named Hunyue with one slap, the situation afterwards would most likely become... huh? Wait, he remembered that the guy named Hunyue seemed to be able to talk to that monster like a human?

Suddenly, an idea so bizarre that even Yamu himself found it absurd flashed through his mind, but then it became uncontrollable against the backdrop of the pile of plans that he had actively denied. Yamu kept thinking in his mind, while looking at the white-haired boy in front of him who was concentrating on the investigation, and looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Brother Ya...Brother Yamu?"

Bell, who noticed Yamu's gaze, looked back at Yamu. Seeing the other person staring at him, he shuddered inexplicably. Seeing this, Yamu smiled as lewdly as a certain wandering hunter, and took the initiative to put his hand on the white-haired boy's shoulder, and said to him in a tone like a devil's whisper:
"Bell, your brother Yamu just suddenly thought of a solution to our current predicament."

"What...what to do?"

"Yes, and it's a method that only you can do."

As Yamu spoke, the smile on his face became more and more lascivious. Finally, as Bell's goosebumps appeared on his face, he smiled and said to him:
"Bell, are you... interested in pursuing that girl called Soul Moon?"

"???"

"Don't worry, we don't need to make her fall in love with us. We just need to make her a little shy and willing to pass on a message for us~!"

"Wait...wait a minute, Brother Yamu, I already have...!"

"Don't worry! Your big brother Yamu is here to protect you. Are you still afraid of being chopped by a hatchet?"

"No, no, that...I...!"

"Okay! It's decided. Let's get ready. Whether the two of us can survive this depends entirely on you, Brother Bell~!"

……

……

At the same time, Dark Glory Continent.

"What do you think, Lao Bai? Did that Moon Demon guy agree?"

"She told us to make our own decision and not to consider her opinion..."

"Uh... well, that's a pretty fitting answer for her."

On the battlefield, when Randy heard the White Devil's answer, his eyes twitched slightly and he couldn't help but complain.

Unlike him who at least made a phone call to ask about his well-being, the communication on Bai Mo's side was catastrophically efficient. The whole process just involved sending a message, waiting for five minutes, and then the other party sent back a reply decided by them, and that was it.

"So, you come or I come."

The White Devil looked at Randy and spoke.

Although verbal permission has been obtained from all signatories of the blood oath covenant, it is not something that can be done by simply signing a signature. Instead, it must be signed with the help of a guide using his own blood essence.

"Well~! Let me do it this time. After all, it was me who suggested it, and it's obviously not appropriate for a patient like you to bleed profusely again~!"

As Randy spoke, he glanced at the White Demon and Xin Lailai beside him, then under Xin Lailai's curious gaze, he suddenly bit his index finger. The expression on his face became solemn and serious, and he began to write quickly in the air.

Is this... a text from ancient times?

Xin Lailai looked at the strange words written in blood with a little silver light in the air, and his eyes moved slightly.

As a wizard, he naturally had some understanding of various types of characters in the star realm. After all, some magical knowledge could only be recorded and interpreted using specific characters.

This statement...

Sure enough, the so-called blood oath covenant is actually a means of using the cause and effect of the entire inheritance as a carrier to call upon the most ancient and original notarial power?
Xin Lailai looked at what Randy wrote, and quickly interpreted it in his mind, matching it one by one with the knowledge he had learned.

Blood oath covenant.

Xin Lailai had learned about this thing from Kagus when he was at the first level. According to the other party's description, this kind of covenant was different from an ordinary contract. Once signed, unless one could obtain the protection of the entire Paradise camp + the Void Tree, even the strongest person would pay an extremely heavy price if he dared to directly violate the contents of the covenant.

Not only that, once the blood oath is signed, it will continue almost permanently according to one's own causal bloodline. When the demon clan was fighting the most internally, they seized the weakness of the lineage to which Kagus belonged and the lineage of the Destroyer, which had signed the blood oath. Then, they took advantage of the Destroyer's crisis and designed to make the other lineage lose a lot of combat power in the process of supporting the Destroyer. Only then did they win the internal fight that was enough to determine the fate of the entire demon clan.

Although later, due to the rise of Bai Ye, the demon clan that had finally won the internal struggle became a vassal of the clan where Kagusu was, but from the fact that the demon clan that signed the Blood Oath Covenant would rather fight until only one of them was left than violate the Blood Oath Covenant, we can understand how reliable the Blood Oath Covenant is.

According to what he found in the academic sect database, the reason why the Blood Oath Covenant has such a powerful enforcement effect is that it does not cite the surface notarial effect used in conventional contracts, which has been weakened countless times after layers of changes and iterations. Instead, it refers to the original notarial effect when the Tree of the Void differentiated into paradise, which is closely related to the formation of the six... or to be more precise, the seven paradises.

In layman's terms, once the blood oath covenant is signed, not only will this covenant be jointly notarized by all the Paradise camps + the Void Tree, but under the effect of the initial notarization, its information will also be spread to the origin of the entire star realm, achieving true permanent continuation.

This is also the reason why Xin Lailai agreed without hesitation when he heard that Randy was planning to pull them into the blood oath covenant jointly established with the other party and the four foreign-level teams including the White Mage.

With this covenant as a backup, not only do they no longer have to worry about Randy revealing that Black Sword is the showman, they can even gain four more extremely reliable allies. Although according to the content of the covenant, this blood oath covenant will not restrict competition between the signatories, but when it comes to external parties, it is an extremely reliable guarantee for cooperation. They can even rely on the effect of the blood oath covenant to increase their own fortune to a certain extent. It can be said that it is a standard benefit with no disadvantages.

"Brother Black Sword! It's done!!!"

Suddenly, Randy, who was standing aside, shouted loudly, and Xin Lailai heard it, without any hesitation, and decisively cut off his index finger and pressed it on the already formed bloody contract.

Om-! !

The next second, an ancient and vast aura rose from the Bloody Covenant and slammed into Xin Lailai's mind, causing a buzzing in the brains of him and Ling Yuzi in the soul space. In a trance, they seemed to see countless figures so powerful that they could not even look directly at them. They were all the beings who had signed the Bloody Covenant in the past, including the Destroying Law, Wandering, and Silver Moon inheritances.

By the time they came to their senses, the bloody contract had disappeared, leaving only a wisp of ancient and vast aura lingering in the original place.

"Huh... this way, this battle is finally over~!"

"Ah."

Seeing this, Randy let out a long sigh and a look of relief appeared on his face.

With the blood oath covenant, the agreement between the three parties can be said to be completely solidified, and he can finally find a place to rest...

[Notice (Void Tree): It has been detected that the final result of this expedition world battle has a 99.87% probability of being completely determined, and the hidden world mission is being judged...]

[Judgment completed. Since the mortality rate of the main native races in this world is less than 50%, and all the main contestants have survived to the end and have the conditions for full cooperation, the hidden world mission has been opened! ]
