Free Web NovelChapter 947: Chapter 40: Night God Banquet: Signing a Friendship Contract? They’re Good People
"Where did this Immortal come from? Watch me wield my Life and Death Legacy!"
"Heaven’s Chosen never surrenders."
The Night God Banquet looked at the two strangers from beyond the heavens, fury unfurling in his heart.
Faced with an external Immortal, Night God Banquet, of course, refused to comply.
To make his performance convincing, his father, the Night Emperor, did not inform him that someone intended to bring them under their command.
Night God Banquet was born a child of Heaven, untouched by any severe trials; even during the time Emperor Zangwu held him captive, he was not mistreated.
After his father ascended, he rose to the title of Emperor, wielding the Chronicles of Time skillfully, fostering an aura of arrogance and confidence.
"Merely two Immortals, that’s all."
Night God Banquet stood up, gripped the void fiercely.
The Supreme Treasure of the Celestial Destiny World’s dynasty, the Life and Death Legacy, swiftly soared, landing in his hand.
"The entire world’s destiny curse, even an Immortal finds it hard to withstand!"
"Today, with my mortal body, I shall fight against the Immortal God!"
With a roar, the heavy radiance of the Golden God bloomed, and he launched his attack.
True Immortal Momei and the Grand Elder quietly observed the scene, revealing surprise as they began to counterattack.
Soon enough, the roiling fury of Night God Banquet was subdued.
He had been beaten into submission.
Yet, True Immortal Momei still gave the young man a high evaluation:
"This Life and Death Legacy is indeed intriguing, akin to Puppet Threads of the Control Series Divine Techniques, intertwined with destiny?"
"The combination, surprisingly, can manipulate the destiny of all living beings in a world to curse their enemies?"
The Grand Elder beside her also felt a lingering fear, eyeing the defeated Night God Banquet. "If it weren’t for your personal intervention, had I come alone to this realm, I might have truly faced an unexpected mishap."
What seemed ordinary was actually extremely perilous.
He was at Celestial Immortal Great Perfection, yet upon entering the world, his level was suppressed to one below.
Human Immortal Perfection.
The opponent truly posed a threat to him.
Just moments ago, he felt his passive Destiny Bar shield was close to being breached live.
Should it break, the curse of all living beings in a world falling upon him, even he would not fare well, creating immense trouble, sustained severe injuries, and depleted destiny. Such intangible wounds are the hardest to heal.
That is to say,
The mortal emperor of this realm actually possessed the power to resist a Celestial Immortal level expert!
Only a True Immortal could steadily capture him.
This is thoroughly absurd; how many True Immortals are there?
True Immortals, in the Immortal Realm, correspond to the Sect Leader level of major powers, and generally do not mobilize lightly.
"Many thanks to True Immortal for the rescue," the Grand Elder sighed, gazing complexly at the reckless Night God Banquet.
"It’s not your fault; they have a unique system."
True Immortal Momei chuckled, "We Immortals only cultivate destiny after becoming Immortals, and that is our weakest area."
"We were suppressed in realm, and the other side attacked our weak point, which was unbearable. If they fought you with soul and body Divine Techniques, you would surely win."
"The other side is very rare; in the All Heavens World, it’s probably the only mortal-era destiny system with such strength... Only in their mortal era do they have the strength to attack Immortals using destiny."
True Immortal Momei was adept at dealing with people, explaining to soothe the Grand Elder.
After all, a Celestial Immortal Perfection in the sect ranks right below her and retired as the predecessor Sect Leader, nearly being felled by a mortal... it was slightly too embarrassing.
Simultaneously, this also exposed the shortcomings of their Demon Charm Holy Land.
After becoming Immortals, they needed to cultivate destiny by purchasing a Destiny Auspicious Beast.
But these rare breeds were monopolized by the Immortal Venerate forces, and the Auspicious Beasts from those Great Sects were all hybrid mixed-beasts.
The bloodline purity is weak, the ability low, and the price high...
But with the monopoly by the "Three Royal Families," you have no choice but to grit your teeth and buy.
Even True Immortal Momei herself acquired a mixed-beast, or why else would she lose to the True Immortals of the Immortal Venerate forces?
She has always hated such monopolizations of specific attributes in Beast Taming.
True Immortal Momei mused: "Now, I’m not afraid of the Immortal Venerate’s monopoly anymore, as we have our own Auspicious Beast source, but I’m afraid it will invite even more troublesome enemies."
Subsequently, the beaten Night God Banquet was compelled to engaged in friendly discussions and negotiations with the two True Immortals.
Under another’s roof, you have to lower your head.
Night God Banquet couldn’t outplay these seasoned old-timers, experiencing a round of carrot and stick...
Finally, he could only talk nicely!
"I think he is quite good," after a few words, the Grand Elder suddenly smiled brightly, "Little friend, would you like to roam with sister from now on?"
True Immortal Momei: "....."
This seemed like child trafficking.
Night God Banquet raged, "I have a wife, you enchantress!"
His wife was the Sleeping Beauty he awakened with a kiss during his worldly travels.
Grand Elder Mo Meifeng chuckled, "Your mind is a bit askew, turning a simple recruitment as a subordinate into something absurd."
"I intend to enter a Soul Coexistence Contract with you, consider it my investment in you."
The Grand Elder smiled warmly, "Providing you with all sorts of resources unconditionally, aiding your growth, offering you Divine Techniques, moves, Pill Medicines."
"Of course, there is a price. When I need your help in combat, you must assist."
"Don’t worry, I won’t deliberately send you to die. We have a contract. If you perish, I will also suffer grievous injuries."
"And at my level, battles are quite rare."
Outwardly Night God Banquet gritted his teeth, fiercely unyielding, but inwardly puzzled: Is there truly such a good thing?
Noting the other’s expression, the Grand Elder smiled within.
She hadn’t told a single falsehood.
But the marvel of language lies here.
I explain it in another way; this is a grand opportunity.
I offer you ample resources, Magical Treasures, you only need to occasionally help me in battles...
Isn’t this similar to the treatment of a Sect’s Direct Disciple?
Just as when people from the Nine-State learn tomb-robbing from a young age, they study "How to Tame Wild Populations" in the Beast Tamer course from childhood.
Every Great Noble Families nurtures Beast Tamers, even enclosing and breeding a batch of exclusive beasts.
If you don’t trick and trap each group of beast populations, capture and breed them at home, how will the sect grow strong?
"Do you think I can deceive you?"
The Grand Elder gave a light laugh, "Is there a need for me to trick you? When your life is in our hands, we are Immortals, not ones to bully a mortal like you."
Night God Banquet received the contract conveyed through the other’s Soul Consciousness, pondering, "Is her contract really without tricks?"
"Various resources, provided free and limitless? Restricted to personal use, utilizing as much as possible without waste."
"Could it be, is the Immortal Realm full of such benevolent people?"
"Though their contract seems to have a peculiar nature, possibly related to some Divine Technique system race?"
"Is it akin to another cultivation system of our Daoists?"
Night God Banquet is unscathed from trials and not naive, but his analysis suffered from the information gap, unaware of the other’s background.
Felt the other seemed quite generous.
Yet, Night God Banquet suddenly remembered something, growing alert, asking: "Our world uses the Taoist system; what do you call this system in your world? And what is this contract about?"
The Grand Elder smiled, as if predicting the question, calmly said:
"We are well known, and our name has spread across many worlds. Friends call us the Friendship System, Investment System..."
"My friend, do not be tense, we are reputable."
"What we sign is a Friendship Contract, also known as an Investment Contract, or Mutual Assistance Contract... It has over ten names, recognized by many powerful civilizations."
"We are the most renowned investors among the All Heavens World; nearly all Immortals are aware of our existence."
"Our bonds of friendship, spanning countless civilizations."
"We are weak but wealthy; we never fight personally. We make friends everywhere, inviting friends to help when crises occur."
"This is our humble and loyal way of surviving."
Night God Banquet suddenly realized that the other side represented a special cultivation system.
This system forges broad friendships, adept at social dynamics, where each cultivator has a multitude of friends...
This is no different from a naive aristocrat? Countless civilizations indeed favor such a tycoon civilization; they’re massive investors ensuring safety. It’s the only mode for the weak like them to survive...
