Chapter 135: Finger Heart

Chapter 135: Finger Heart

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

In the Bank of the Universe, Li Xiandao was sitting in the main hall talking to Seven.

Dealing with the enemies in Ancient Desolate Land was just a simple thing to Li Xiandao and he didn’t care much about it.

There was no one in Ancient Desolate Land who could make him worry. It was time to clear out all the debts here.

“Seven, how many contracts are there in Ancient Desolate Land?” Li Xiandao asked.

Li Xiandao handed all the contract problems to Seven. When one appointed someone to a role, one had to just trust them. If one didn’t trust the person, then one shouldn’t have appointed the person in the first place. Seven was really amazing and she wouldn’t leave the Bank of the Universe anyway.

Seven said, “Ancient Desolate Land still has 150 valid contracts!”

“Just a few?” Li Xiandao said in shock.

“Many of the creditors died after signing the contracts, so they are useless of course. Our investments are also useless too.” Seven said helplessly.

The Bank of the Universe disappeared for 10,000 years, so how many people had died during that time?

Those people either died from battle or died from old age. Those who were able to survive for 10,000 years would have all been experts.

Li Xiandao frowned, “Doesn’t that mean that in the future many of the contracts will be ineffective?”

Seven smiled, “That is not the case. Dali Land and Ancient Desolate Land are the two weakest in the 10 lands. The strongest are only at Countless Sands Realm. This place is like a small pond and no big fish will stay here. The one that occassionally appears will occupy half of the small pond. Thus, the other fish won’t be able to survive in this small pond!”

Li Xiandao was deep in thought and said, “We are fishing in a small pond now?”

“You can understand it that way. Once master clears the debts in Ancient Desolate Land, we can head to bigger worlds.” Seven said.

Li Xiandao nodded. “In the 10 lands, Ancient Desolate Land and Dali Land are both small ponds, so what about the other places?”

Seven explained to Li Xiandao, “The Ten Lands are Dali Land, Ancient Desolate Land, Cloud Mist Land, Ancient Buddha Land, Great Demon Land, Ten Thousand Beast Land, Kunlun Land, Red Soil Land, Eternal Land, and Death Spirit Land.”

“Dali Land and Ancient Desolate Land are the two lowest-ranked ones. They have the least amount of resources and experts. Ancient Desolate Land is slightly better and has a few Countless Sands Realm experts. As for Dali Land, it only has very few Saints.”

“The other eight lands are more average. They circle the nine skies and absorb the energy from above. This is why the other eight lands have a much more prosperous cultivation environment!” Seven said.

Li Xiandao listened quietly.

Now that he was invincible in Ancient Desolate Land, he was starting to think about when to enter an even stronger world. Seven helped to remind him.

Ancient Desolate Land and Dali Land were the initial targets and were suitable for development. But as they grew stronger, they were no longer suitable.

“Once the debts are settled, let Long Mixu control Ancient Desolate Land and we will leave.” Li Xiandao set their foundations.

No matter what, he needed to let Long Mixu control the Ten Thousand Dragon Empire and make it Li Xiandao’s territory.

Anyway, the people of the other worlds didn’t care much about Dali Land and Ancient Desolate Land.

Experts didn’t care about it as it was a waste of time. Even if the weak ones came it was okay as they wouldn’t be strong enough to do anything.

This was the reason why Dali Land and Ancient Desolate Land were so low in the rankings.

....

“Of the 150 contracts, how many of them are tough or problematic?” Li Xiandao asked.

Seven passed a contract to Li Xiandao and said, “Out of the 150 contracts, only this one is slightly more problematic. Heaven Heart and the others will not be able to solve it.”

Li Xiandao’s brow rose up and he felt shocked. Heaven Heart was already at the 2nd Level of Countless Sands Realm and even he couldn’t?

Apart from that old priest, someone else could beat Heaven Heart?

He took a look at the contract and realized that there really wasn’t any human who could beat Heaven Heart.

The contract was problematic because it wasn’t a human!

It was a turtle in the ocean!

Written clearly on the contract: “Great Ocean Saint Turtle borrowed a Xuanwu Neidan from the Bank of the Universe and will repay it in 10,000 years. The price to pay is 10,000 years of lifespan!”

“If he breaks the contract, he will pay 100,000 years!”

Li Xiandao glanced at the contract, and said, “Did he go against the agreement?”

Seven nodded, “He did. A month ago, 10,000 years had passed.”

Li Xiandao smiled, “That means we earn 100,000 years. This is a huge win.”

“Right, which is why I said that this is problematic. The Great Ocean Saint Turtle is so old and has been hiding in the ocean. With the Xuanwu God Beast Neidain, Heaven Heart won’t be able to deal with him.” Seven added.

“I will go personally!” Li Xiandao smiled confidently.

“I hope that this Great Ocean Saint Turtle can make me use all my strength.” Li Xiandao muttered.

Seven smiled and then gave him a finger heart. She blinked and said, “Good luck, Master.”

Li Xiandao looked at her in shock. He didn’t expect the quiet Seven to suddenly become so playful.

“You don’t like it?” Seven looked at Li Xiandao’s shocked expression. Her expression returned back to normal and she grumbled.

“I won’t do it again in the future.” Seven turned around and left.

“No... I like it, you can do it more in the future. ” Li Xiandao said firmly.

Seven scoffed and was a little annoyed, “I won’t do it anymore.”

“I will handle this contract but let Heaven Heart, Lucifer, Usuna, and the others deal with the others.” Li Xiandao instructed.

Seven didn’t even turn her head and reply to him.

What Li Xiandao didn’t see was that she was feeling really shy after Li Xiandao said he liked it.

....

Outside the walls, along with the army failing, the old priest was the first to escape. He didn’t manage to get far and chose to sit atop a mountain peak to heal up.

He set into the forest and took in a deep breath. Two streaks of green light were sucked in and breathed out of his nose. He absorbed the essence of the moon and the sun and the energy from the plants around him.

All the trees and plants in the entire forest were providing energy for him.

His broken arm continued to grow. His flesh moved, his bones elongated, and very quickly, a hand appeared.

One full day and night passed before he heaved a sigh of relief and stopped.

Many trees around him had dried up and their essence had been totally sucked dry.

When the old priest saw this, he felt really guilty and his brows rose.

“I took your lives because of my injuries. I am really sorry.” The old priest muttered. He took out all his God Source, shattering them on the ground for the trees to absorb and recover.

When the old priest saw this, he nodded his head in satisfaction, “You helped me recover my arm, so I will help you nourish your bodies. We take what we want; this is a perfect relationship.”

“This time was just so dangerous. Luckily, I cultivated the Constant Youth Celestial Technique which allows me to regenerate a severed arm even without medicine. This is a top technique but the people are stupid to ignore it.” The old priest said gleefully.
