Mortal: Fight monsters and upgrade, I will enjoy immortality!

"Okay, Brother Ye, do you have anything else to ask? If not, can we talk about the transaction?" He Kang stopped laughing and said lightly.

He felt that what he had just said was enough to dispel Ye Ming's vigilance, so he directed Ye Ming's attention back to the things he cared about.

Ye Ming thought about it and realized that he had asked almost everything he needed to know, so he straightened his clothes and said solemnly, "I can promise to help you activate the Realm Communication Talisman, but in addition to the second and third levels of the Soul Refining Technique and the Soul Tempering Technique that you promised me just now, you have to agree to a few conditions."

"Please tell me, Fellow Daoist Ye. As long as it is within my ability, I will definitely help you." He Kang suppressed his excitement and spoke more quickly unconsciously.

"In this lower world, the most top-tier treasures are none other than Xuantian's treasures. If you can bring out eight or ten of them, I will immediately agree to help you."

He Kang's heart twitched, and he said somewhat awkwardly: "Haha, fellow Daoist, you are joking. The Xuantian Treasure is an innate immortal weapon even in the immortal world. I used to have one or two of them, but they were destroyed in the battle with the Mother of the Stem Borer. Not only that, most of the other treasures of the same level also suffered the same fate."

"What about the other rare materials? If you can return to the fairyland, you won't need these things. Why don't you give them to me? So they won't be wasted."

"Back then, I blew up my physical body and all my storage tools were destroyed as well. I only collected a limited number of items in a hurry. After so many years, they have all been used up long ago. So I'm afraid I can't help you much in terms of physical objects." He Kang explained.

"In that case, forget it. Thank you for clearing up my doubts. I am very grateful. Please send me off. Of course, it's fine if you let me leave on my own."

Ye Ming was determined to leave, and with a flip of his wrist, a three-foot-long silver sword appeared out of thin air. As the tip of the sword trembled, ripples in space spread out.

With a shake of his arm, the energy of the void heaven and earth near the altar suddenly shook and rushed towards the sword.

Then, without even looking at the altar, he slashed with his sword somewhere in space.

"Wait! Brother Ye, we can talk it over!" He Kang suddenly became anxious and quickly stopped Ye Ming.

"Senior, please tell me what you want me to do." Ye Ming stopped what he was doing and looked calmly at the bowl on the altar.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, compared to some of my personal belongings, what is more valuable here are various secret techniques and insights. I really don't have many treasures to collect, so why don't you mention some conditions in this regard?"

He Kang cursed Ye Ming's greed and cunning in his heart. Although he knew that this was a threat from the other party, he had no choice. If this person really left, he probably would never wait for a suitable person to come.

The first level of the soul-refining technique was fine, but the second and third levels were not something that anyone could successfully cultivate. Over the past million years, countless demons had come here, but none of them met the requirements. Otherwise, why would he have waited so long?

"Hehe, of course I have to mention this condition, but I also want other treasures." Ye Ming looked like he would not accept any refusal.

"Fellow Daoist, please think carefully! Although I am trapped here, I can still use some means. At least I have the ability to kill the mother of stem borers with one blow. That blow should have a similar effect on you. I have also told you this before. Aren't you afraid that I will take action against you?" He Kang's voice sank.

"Hehe, senior, you can give it a try. Don't say that you are just a remnant soul now. Even if your body is still there and a complete and intact true immortal stands in front of me, I may not be afraid of him." A fierce look flashed across Ye Ming's face.

Immediately, a purple-gold light burst out, and his body grew wildly, completing the three nirvana transformations in an instant. He also activated the Hundred Meridians Refining Treasure Technique and the Mysterious Heavenly Inscription Technique, transforming into an image with three heads and six arms, wearing purple-gold armor with silver patterns.

He Kang was silent for a moment, then his tone softened, "Okay, I agree to this condition. You make a vow to your inner demon, and I will bring the storage to you."

He Kang had seen Ye Ming's strength with his own eyes. Although he could still use the divine punishment thunder once, he might not be able to do anything to the other party. His top priority was to return to the fairyland, and everything else was secondary. Besides, with his knowledge and means, it would be easy for him to trick Ye Ming. He could probably make the other party suffer a great loss with just a few words.

So he agreed to Ye Ming's obviously excessive request.

"Haha, no hurry, no hurry. I have some other requests that I haven't told you yet." Ye Ming laughed and controlled the True Immortal tightly.

After waiting for a while, seeing that the other party didn't speak, Ye Ming spoke to himself:

"Senior He, actually my request is just a trivial matter to you, not worth mentioning at all. For example, I have many confidantes and descendants, some of whom have reached the fusion stage, and some have not yet reached it. I want to train them all to the Mahayana stage. As a True Immortal, you must have mastered many methods to break through the Mahayana stage! For example, elixirs, secret techniques, magic arrays, etc. Regardless of whether these methods are useful for us cultivators in the lower realms, please tell me about them."

"Okay, I agree." He Kang said without any fluctuation in his tone. This was indeed a piece of cake for him.

"In addition, I am very interested in some spiritual medicines and spiritual materials in the fairy world. Can you give me some introduction on the identification of spiritual medicines and spiritual materials?"

"Hehe, it seems that Fellow Daoist Ye has inherited the legacy of a True Immortal. This True Immortal should have come to this world before me and left some treasures to help you cultivate your current level of cultivation and strength. Also, the martial arts you asked me about just now should have been obtained from this inheritance!" He Kang said affirmatively.

"Senior, you have misunderstood. I am simply curious." Ye Ming laughed and denied it.

"Oh? It seems that I have overthought it. But I can promise you this. Later, I will compile a set of information similar to the atlas of spiritual medicines and spiritual materials for you. After reading and mastering this information, you should be able to recognize most of the commonly used things in the fairy world." He Kang agreed to this request.

"Since you are so straightforward, I will not say anything more. As long as you tell me how to overcome the tribulation of ascension, I will agree to your previous request." Ye Ming felt that it was about enough and he had asked what he should ask, so he said so.

"Okay! I have a 'Heart Oath Seal' here. This thing is effective for people with True Immortal or lower cultivation levels. To ensure that Fellow Daoist Ye does not regret it, you should swear a Heart Demon Oath to him."

As He Kang was speaking, something flew out of the bowl and landed steadily in front of Ye Ming.

This thing looks like an exquisite jade seal, the jade is warm and radiates a faint spiritual light. The seal button is engraved with complex gold and silver runes, which are the gold seal script and silver tadpole script.

With a sweep of his mind, he felt a strange binding force!

Ye Ming looked at the jade seal and hesitated, wondering if He Kang would do anything with it.

He Kang certainly knew Ye Ming's concerns, so he explained: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Ye, this Heart Oath Seal is a well-known thing in the fairy world, and it is also a very widely used item. Sometimes we immortals also need to make agreements with others, and there are also needs such as swearing with the heart demon, so this Heart Oath Seal came into being.

Once this item takes effect, if one party violates the relevant oath, they will pay a heavy price. At the least, their cultivation will stagnate, and at the worst, they will go astray and be taken advantage of by the inner demon. But if they do not violate the oath, there will be no impact.

Moreover, this item is easy and quick to use, and there is no need to inject blood essence, sacrifice the soul, etc., just inject a wisp of divine thought into it. Fellow Daoist, please look!"

As he spoke, a ray of silver light emerged from the bowl, shot fleetingly above the Heart Oath Seal, then sank into it and disappeared.

At the same time, He Kang's voice sounded beside Ye Ming's ears: "I, He Kang, swear here that if Daoist Fellow Ye agrees to help me activate the Realm Communication Talisman, I am willing to give Daoist Fellow Ye my treasures, the agreed-upon cultivation techniques, and the introduction to the spiritual medicines and materials of the Immortal Realm. If you violate this, I am willing to suffer the pain of being devoured by the inner demon, and I will never be able to return to the Immortal Realm again."

After he finished speaking, a golden light flashed on the Heart Oath Seal, and the gold and silver runes seemed to come alive, flowing endlessly, and a solemn and mysterious aura spread out for a long time. Then, the golden light gradually converged, and everything returned to calm. The jade seal once again floated there quietly, as if it had never changed.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, look, this seal of the heart oath has been half activated. Now it's your turn. After you complete the oath, this thing will naturally disappear." He Kang said to Ye Ming with a smile, his tone full of sincerity and expectation.

Ye Ming carefully observed all this, and he could not see any flaws in He Kang's words and actions, as well as the changes in the jade seal. So, after thinking for a moment, he nodded and decided to trust the other party once.

He took a deep breath, concentrated his mind, and a ray of divine thought slowly flowed out from his brows and flew towards the Heart Oath Seal. The moment the divine thought came into contact with it, he seemed to have entered a wonderful space, and bursts of low incantations rang in his ears, as if the Heart Oath Seal was guiding him to make a vow.

"I, Ye Ming, swear by my inner demon hereby that when my spiritual power reaches the requirements, I will activate the realm spiritual talisman given by Senior He Kang to help him contact friends in the fairy world. If I don't do this, I will suffer backlash from my inner demon in the future, and my cultivation will not advance at all." Ye Ming recited the oath slowly, and his spiritual power also merged into the seal of the heart oath.

As his oath came down, the golden light of the heart oath seal shone brightly, and the gold and silver runes circulated faster. With a "bang", it turned into pieces of golden and silver light, soaring into the sky, ignoring numerous restrictions and obstacles, and instantly disappeared in this space.

Ye Ming was startled, and sent out his divine sense to quickly scan the surroundings. At the same time, blue light flashed in his eyes and he looked around.
