Cultivators at the Wizarding Academy

Chapter 146 The Rank of the Oath

Breathing techniques.

By strengthening cardiopulmonary function, one can absorb a large amount of oxygen in a short period of time, thereby further improving physical fitness.

The secret techniques created by ancient masters have been passed down to this day and are of great reference value.

In addition, Deyulan also discussed secret techniques for enhancing the stomach's digestive function, as well as techniques for stimulating the activity of body cells using lightning elements. The former can accelerate training speed, while the latter directly improves reaction speed and agility.

Taian also informed Deyoulan of his own special circumstances.

"A physique capable of absorbing magic essence! How is that possible?"

"If you don't believe me, fine. I call it the Chaotic Body, the Human-Immortal Body..."

"No, I believe you! The facts are right in front of me. Your physique is far superior to mine; you're on a completely different level. Absorbing magic essence to strengthen yourself is entirely plausible, and it's an unknown path that humanity has never explored before."

The key question is, can ordinary people like us do it?

Facing Deyoulan's eager gaze, Tai'an slowly shook his head: "Perhaps my descendants can."

Deyulan felt a strange sense of melancholy, recalling how the divine bloodline of the mythical era merged with humanity, gradually unlocking the upper limit of human strength and forging the glorious dominance of the continent today.

Otherwise, the limit of human strength would mostly remain at the elite level.

Every living being is born with a predetermined upper limit to its rank. The offspring of a rat cannot become a true dragon; at most, they will be a powerful rat.

Unless the genetic lock is unlocked, embarking on a desperate evolutionary path—far beyond a nine-out-of-ten chance, but a one-in-a-trillion miracle—it requires the continuous evolution of the entire population, often taking tens of thousands of years as the minimum standard.

To some extent, these superhuman beings represent those who have evolved ahead of others.

As long as they continue to reproduce, the upper limit of the entire human population will be raised.

"So, your bloodline is destined to spread? A task given to you by God?"

"I don't know, don't ask me..."

Deyulan, his expression grave, followed closely behind Taian: "Regarding the adamantite armor, I have one request."

"Speaking."

"Descendants of the Tulip family must have the right to inherit; you must swear an oath."

Tai'an solemnly raised his hand. The Oath of the 0th-Order Trick Contract brings the most basic trust between people.

"Just you wait!" Deyulan leaped away.

It was getting late, so Taian returned to the Wizarding Academy. He casually picked a long foxtail grass from the roadside and saw the silver-haired loli rushing towards him. He picked it up and waved it in front of her nose as a weapon.

"You're so annoying..."

Silvermoon was somewhat allergic to the fuzz of foxtail grass, and sneezed several times, waving her hands and backing away, shouting, "Stop messing around!"

"Xiao An! Let me introduce you. This is Mr. Tinyham, the Hundred Flowers Swordsman. We hope he can join us." Taiya said with a warm smile.

"Hello! Mr. Tinyham." Taian stopped teasing the little girl, his frivolous expression slightly subdued, and he put on a dignified air with his hands behind his back.

Tiniham quickly bowed in greeting.

"Would it be convenient for you to tell me the specific reasons why you chose the Blue Rose family?"

"My strength has already reached the super-level, and I need guidance from seniors to go further."

Tai'an nodded slightly.

"Secondly, I want to rely on the Blue Rose family to resolve the disputes at the Flower Sisters, end their wrongful rule, and give everyone the opportunity to choose their own destiny."

"Your strength is already so great, isn't it enough to solve the problem?"

Tinyham shook his head: "The Hundred Flowers Sisters' Abbey is far more complex than it appears on the surface. High Sister Grace is a super-level spellcaster, even one of the more senior members. As the vessel for divine descent, her strength can potentially advance even further. Even ordinary Saint-level experts wouldn't easily claim victory..."

"This is a bit tricky! But within our scope of handling this, what price are you prepared to pay? Also, after dealing with Grace, what are your plans for the rest of them?"

"I've heard that the Blue Rose family is preparing to recruit its citizens. Homeless children can find a true place for themselves in the North, gain the dignity of being human, and support themselves through their own efforts. The original convent, including its affiliated orphanage, can serve as a base for long-term recruitment."

Tai'an clapped lightly in approval: "The idea is excellent and aligns with the interests of the Blue Rose family. I think we can continue this discussion. What can you do to achieve this? Talk alone won't cut it."

"everything!"

Tiniham gave a simple two-word response, took out a bulging space bag from his white cloak, bent down and poured it on the ground.

The dazzling gold and colorful gemstones, piled up to half a person's height, quickly attracted the attention of those around them.

"I have seized quite a few similar valuables from the den of fallen nobles, and they can all be used for their preservation. This is witnessed by a high-ranking eternal oath."

Complex contract inscriptions appeared before Tiniham.

The oath is as follows: "If the Blue Rose family can properly resolve the problems of the Flower Sisters, they will have my unwavering loyalty until death."

Compared to the 0th-tier Trick Pact Oath, which merely serves as a witness, higher-tier oaths have stronger binding force and longer duration. The progression is as follows: First-tier Spell Curse Oath. Violating the oath will result in continuous misfortune, and the inscription is valid for ten years.

The intermediate-level spell, the Oath of Immortality, grants the user the ability to become an undead creature upon death if the oath is broken, and to be reborn in the underworld. This eternal life is marked by enslavement and a lack of peace. The inscription is valid for one hundred years.

The high-level spell Eternal Oath, whose violation results in the burning of the soul, has an inscription that lasts forever, hence its name.

Further on is the legendary, lost blood oath, which does not end with the individual's life. As long as the bloodline of the sworn person exists, the oath will be passed down endlessly, creating a binding force. These were often used by retainers to declare their eternal loyalty to the king, thus gaining absolute trust and corresponding rights and status.

It's worth mentioning that all oaths fall under the category of contract spells. They are constructed using the Tier 0 Trick Contract Oath Inscription as their core; violating it will result in the loss of all contractual effectiveness.

"There's no need for all that trouble!" Taian was too late to stop Tiniham's determination.

He felt that the level 0 spell contract was good enough. Everyone has one chance to be trusted; any further spell contracts would be superfluous. The stricter the constraints, the more likely people are to try and exploit loopholes.

Greenfield stood quietly to the side, observing the conversation between the two. She wanted to ask about the relationship between Taian and the princess, but she didn't want to offend her fiancé by being tactless.

Tiniham was invited inside.

Taiya led Taian to Musophile's bedroom, cautiously closed the door, and activated the soundproof barrier.

"Xiao An! We don't have any Saint-level experts here. How come I don't know of any?"

"There's a lot you don't know. Girls shouldn't be so curious, okay?"

Tell me quickly!
