My Simulated Road to Immortality

Chapter 595: Chapter 567: Contract Saint Sovereign

“When will you be able to get your hands on the array diagram?” the spy from the Five Elders Organization asked eagerly, not waiting for Li Fan to speak.

Li Fan pondered for a moment and answered: “It will take at least twenty days.”

The person on the other side became somewhat impatient: “That’s too slow! The battlefield changes every moment. Who knows what will happen in twenty days…”

He suddenly stopped speaking.

He said frankly: “We can’t wait that long!”

Li Fan narrowed his eyes and scoffed, “It seems that you from the Five Elders Organization are really in a hurry.”

“Even if it’s a prototype of the array diagram, it’s not something one can take so easily. It requires careful planning, and it can’t be hastily handed over.”

Upon hearing this, the spy from the Five Elders Organization’s face turned rather sour.

“However…” At this moment, Li Fan changed the topic, “Slow methods have their benefits, and so do fast ones.”

“If you want to get the array diagram quickly, it depends on your sincerity.”

Looking at Li Fan’s blatant price hiking, the spy from the Five Elders Organization exclaimed: “What else do you want?”

Li Fan’s face showed hesitation. “What we just discussed was the price of the array diagram. What we are discussing now is the price for accelerating the process.”

“Is there a problem?”

“If you don’t want to proceed with the trade, then let’s forget it…”

Without giving it a second thought, he turned around and was about to leave.

“Hold on! Let’s talk properly!” The spy from the Five Elders Organization was alarmed and hurried forward to stop Li Fan.

“Friend Zhou, don’t be so impulsive. I’ve said, everything is negotiable.” He gritted his teeth and said with a forced smile.

Li Fan reseated himself and calmly said, “Agreeing to trade with you this time, our organization also took a significant risk.”

“Of course, we must receive enough benefits.”

Li Fan used his finger as a pen and wrote several lines of small characters on the stone table, then said: “You don’t need to worry about contribution. Some of your Five Elders’ special products are in high demand and very popular with us. They can be used as bargaining chips for the trade.”

The spy from the Five Elders Organization looked closely and saw the words: Enlightenment Pills, Genuine Pragya Boat, Carefree Crystal Grid, Human Path Stardust, and Reality Seducing Fruit…

His eyelids jumped at this.

Previously, Li Fan, using Jiao Xiuyuan’s puppet body, went to the Five Elders Organization.

What he gained from this trip wasn’t just the comforting illusions in Sister Zhao’s realm, but a general understanding of the basic situation and customs within the Five Elders’ Organization.

There’s no need to repeat about the Enlightenment Pills, Genuine Pragya Boat, and the Carefree Crystal Grid.

The Human Path Stardust is a specialty of the Human Dao Sky Realm, corresponding to the myriad stars formed by cultivators in the Sky Dome.

In the Sky Realm, cultivators change the heaven and earth to ascend to the sky and transform into starlight. By absorbing stardust, one can clearly perceive how the heaven and earth are being changed.

The alteration of heaven and earth within the Human Dao Sky Realm is, in fact, a lower-level ‘Contrary to the Principle of Heaven and Earth’ under the system created by the Human Dao Sovereign.

Although it’s not at the level of the Contrary Principle of the Xuanhuang World, it’s excellent for cultivating comprehension.

The changing laws involved are not only precious for Integration Cultivators.

Any cultivator of other realms can benefit greatly from studying it.

As for the Reality Seducing Fruit, it is unique to the Kingdom of Reality.

Information can be preset in the fruit.

After consuming it, the cultivator’s thoughts will be distorted, leading them to firmly believe in the “falsities” they originally perceived.

It turns the fake into the real, and its uses are limitless.

If a cultivator below the Immortal Realm or even an Integration Cultivator takes it, they can’t avoid its influence.

…

As his gaze moved away from the stone table, the spy from the Five Elders Organization looked at Li Fan, who had closed his eyes in silence, and felt his mouth go dry.

“Friend Zhou, wait a moment.”

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he turned around again.

This time, it took him even longer than before.

His body seemed to be trembling, as if hit by a great shock.

It wasn’t until it got dark that there was finally a result on the other side.

Looking as if he had just been through a great battle, the spy from the Five Elders Organization’s body was drained, and he almost fell over.

He took a deep breath, then finally spoke, albeit with only a whisper: “It’s okay. But the quantity of each item is subject to further negotiation.”

Li Fan, who had been closing his eyes as if he were asleep, suddenly opened his eyes and gave a smile.

“Good!”

Then, the bargaining phase began.

After a long time, when both parties finally reached an agreement.

The spy from the Five Elders Organization on the other side looked at Li Fan deeply: “Now, it’s time to sign the contract.”

After that, something slightly shocking happened to Li Fan.

Radiant golden light emerged from deep within the body of the other person.

As it fully enveloped him, it transformed into a contract scroll, floating quietly in front of Li Fan.

And the monk from the Five Elders Organization seemed to dissolve into the golden light, vanishing completely.

Li Fan suppressed his discomfort and took the golden contract scroll, reading it carefully.

The text was a faint dark gold.

The terms of the transaction written on it were consistent with what the two had agreed on earlier.

What caught Li Fan’s attention was that one party in the trade was naturally left blank for Li Fan to sign.

The other party, however, were five mystical symbols engraved on the contract scroll, constantly flickering and appearing.

Although he didn’t understand the specific meanings of these symbols, Li Fan understood the moment he saw them that they each represented the five Immortal Sovereigns of the Five Elders Organization.

Recalling what the scholar, who was in charge of brainwashing, had said in the valley of the Five Elders Organization, Li Fan had an epiphany.

“This contract seems a bit like the Soul Contract of the Five Elders Organization. One party is always the Immortal Sovereigns; it’s just that the content of the trade is different.”

As Li Fan touched the contract scroll, he hesitated about which name to sign.

A vague sense of perception suddenly entered his heart.

“Confirm.”

Li Fan responded in his heart.

The inexplicable sense of perception did not disappear, but emerged again, this time stronger than before.

Li Fan confirmed again.

Like this, after three times.

A ray of golden light leapt into the depths of Li Fan’s soul, while the rest tore through the void and disappeared to an unknown place.

“The contract is made, and those named on it cannot breach it.”

Li Fan squinted his eyes, sensing faintly.

“Even the Immortal Sovereigns…”

“Cannot.”

“Perhaps the only ones that can make Sister Zhao, a being of incomprehensible thoughts, submit like this are Immortal Sovereigns of the same realm.”

“Perhaps, their cultivation is even stronger.”

With this, Li Fan finally verified his conjecture about the last unidentified Immortal Sovereign from the Five Elders Organization.

It was the presence of His contract power that allowed the Five Elders Organization to maintain order.

Li Fan, who was thousands of miles away, was carefully observing the unusual occurrences in his body after his avatar, Zhou Qingang, signed the contract, closing his eyes and concentrating.

It seemed like nothing had happened.

But Li Fan had an inexplicable foreboding.

Once he broke the contract, the corresponding punishment would likely affect him through his avatar.
