Chapter 256 Extra - Crisis (2/2)

Buzz—!

A thick layer of golden light burst forth from his body!

Countless intricate golden divine patterns appeared on his bronze skin, densely arranged, instantly forming a natural suit of armor.

The golden divine runes and the black incantations that had invaded the body engaged in a direct battle.

For every inch the golden light shone, an inch of black energy was burned away.

Throughout the entire cave, all eyes, including those of the two ancient sacred beasts, were focused on the man sitting cross-legged.

The judgment and majesty in the golden dragon's burning gaze slowly faded. Its gaze shifted from astonishment to approval, and finally, even revealed a sense of recognition for its own kind.

It saw it.

In the instant the cub was about to be killed, the human did not hesitate for a moment and used his body to block the fatal blow.

On the mountain-like head of the Thunder-Patterned Black Tortoise, even the calm eyes stirred with emotion.

It saw it too.

This human saved its child.

And that girl is recklessly sacrificing her own life, just to bring him back to life.

Inside the cave, all was quiet.

I don't know how much time passed.

"roar......"

The golden dragon let out a deep, long roar.

The dragon's roar no longer carried any killing intent, but only an ancient resonance from the bloodline.

It slowly lowered its head, which was larger and more noble than a palace.

The Thunder-Patterned Black Tortoise beside it also emitted a muffled sound, its massive body sinking slightly, its head drooping down as well.

The oppressive force that made it hard to breathe receded like the tide.

Ruan Tang and Xiao Bai both breathed a sigh of relief.

The curse within Yan Yu's body was finally completely eradicated thanks to the combined effects of the Kun Yuan Golden Soul Technique and Xiao Bai.

He slowly opened his eyes and stood up.

Just then, two soft lights slowly drifted out from between the eyebrows of the golden dragon and the thunder-patterned black tortoise.

It was a pure gold color, like the sun.

The other one was a deep purple, like lightning.

They slowly floated in front of Yan Yu, hovering quietly, exuding an aura of closeness and acceptance.

It is the Origin Soul Contract!

They... are actually offering their loyalty voluntarily!

Ruan Tang stopped breathing.

This is a living, ancient sacred beast! It's a mythical creature that you can't find in any book in the cultivation world!

Now, there are actually two people who want to sign a master-servant contract with Yan Yu!

Yan Yu looked at the two orbs of light in front of him that could drive any cultivator mad, but did not immediately reach out.

He turned his head and looked at Ruan Tang.

There was no questioning in those deep eyes, only an instinctive confirmation.

His eyes seemed to say: I wouldn't want this incredible benefit if it weren't for you.

Ruan Tang was amused by Yan Yu's actions, but couldn't help but smile.

What an idiot!

What time is it? Why are you still looking at her?

She stood on tiptoe and gave him a hard shove, feeling both annoyed and amused.

"What are you daydreaming about! Hurry up and catch it!"

Yan Yu then extended his hand.

His fingertips gently touched the two orbs of light.

The light did not resist and instantly melted into his palm.

Two complex, ancient marks flashed by, leaving a deep imprint on his soul.

A tremendous force surged fiercely into Yan Yu's body along the contract!

The luminous crystals inside the cave were flashing wildly, and the entire space was pulsating in sync with his heartbeat!

His aura began to surge wildly, and that aura almost became a physical entity!

The moment the contract was completed, Ruan Tang's heart skipped a beat.

She turned her head sharply, her gaze piercing into the depths of the enormous nest made up of countless withered bones.

In the deepest shadows behind the dragon and black tortoise eggs, a very faint yet distinct spatial fluctuation suddenly appeared and vanished in an instant. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
