Chapter 339 - The Spirit of Contract
On the grey surface of the sea.
The 'mermaid' breathed heavily: " The contract has been formed, quickly!
Quickly try and see if you can save me!"
"Why did you die?" Liu Ping asked.
" I was heavily wounded by an enemy, its Occultism power lingered on my body, continuously devouring my soul and was about to kill me " the figure answered.
A ray of light shot out from the figure's vertical pupils and covered the remaining half of its body.
The white bones were covered with black worms.
If you looked closely, you'd notice that these insects were completely made of runes, a type of extremely eerie runic lifeform.
" Do you see it?"
" An Occultism born from the intertwining of 25 different Laws, its destructive power is so great that I can't dispel it with all my powers, if you can ... "
"Stop" Liu Ping said.
The "mermaid" immediately stopped talking. She just stared at him with her three vertical pupils.
Liu Ping spoke: "This ability of mine can only be used in battle, feel free to exchange blows with me"
The other party understood and quickly said: "A lot of Occultism powers have conditions to be used, if that's the case, I'll use a bit of the power of Frost"
A wisp of frost manifested out of thin air, turning into a 2-meter-long curved trident that pierced towards Liu Ping.
"Shield!" Andrea called out silently.
A large dragon-shaped shield appeared in front of Liu Ping, blocking the frost trident.
The frost trident didn't change direction and simply struck the shield, giving off a pleasant 'clang clang clang clang' sound.
"Is it done?"
"It's done"
Liu Ping looked down at the half of the monster's skeleton and spoke: "The Occultism on your body should be sealed away, it shouldn't cause you to die"
In an instant, lines of small burning words quickly appeared:
[You are a superhuman actor of Occultism, under your command, the Occultism born from the intertwining of 25 Laws has been sealed away]
All the black insects on the 'mermaid''s body stopped chewing.
They shrank into a cluster, turning into thick 'dots of ink' and stopped moving.
As if they had fallen into hibernation.
" It's been sealed! "
The monster uttered an excited shout and tried to stand up from the surface of the sea.
A sudden change occurred.
An illusory dagger filled with an ancient aura suddenly emerged from its body and stabbed into its heart.
The monster uttered a desperate roar.
Its huge body twisted crazily on the surface of the sea, and it shouted:
"You've sealed that Occultism power, so the enemy's backup plan has been activated, quick! If you can still save me, do it immediately. Otherwise, I will be completely killed by this dagger! "
So this was the real killing move!
If the "mermaid" couldn't resist the rune black worms, it would be continuously gnawed by the black worms and sink into the abyss of death in despair.
But if it withstood the torment.
Immediately, an even more ferocious Occult Technique would be activated and take its life!
How ruthless!
What a vicious mind!
Liu Ping shook his head regretfully.
He had no idea what kind of existence this fellow had provoked. All he could do was seal a type of Occultism, so there was nothing he could do to help it.
Wait a minute!
Liu Ping suddenly had an idea and said softly, "Come out!"
The Warden Blade buzzed.
The next moment.
The void opened, and a humanoid shadow silently appeared.
Two lines of burning text appeared:
[You've unleashed the power of the Four Saint Pillar's sheath: 'Phantom Spirit']
[You of a parallel world has been born and is now in front of you]
Liu Ping casually formed a hand seal to unleash a few thin blades of wind that slashed towards the shadow.
The shadow blocked it with its Blade.
"You've also entered combat mode, see if you can save him" Liu Ping said.
The shadow turned to look at the monster, then suddenly exuded invisible fluctuations from its body and spoke: "The power of Occultism can be manifested as a dagger? That's too dangerous, I think it's best if we don't hurt him "
He had also used Occultism's acting skill: [Super popular actor]!
The two of them turned to the "mermaid" at the same time. The illusory dagger suddenly became dim, turned into a blurry image at a visible speed, and went back into the "mermaid"'s chest.
The dagger had been sealed!
The "mermaid" lay limp on the surface of the sea, its body was constantly moving up and down as it breathed heavily.
"Death is leaving me."
It struggled to speak.
Liu Ping asked: "How long will it take for your wounds to heal?"
The "mermaid" answered: "Earlier, I was unable to block the enemy's attack and was heavily wounded, then I was struck by these two powers of Occultism, but now that they've been sealed"
It muttered an obscure incantation.
Flesh and blood began to grow out of its bones, in just a few breaths' time, all of its organs had grown out, followed by a layer of purplish-blue scales.
"As long as I recover, I'll be able to suppress their powers and slowly wear them down. About 2000 years will be enough for them to completely disappear"
The "mermaid" stared at Liu Ping in the air, the power fluctuations on its body became increasingly intense.
It seemed to be preparing for something.
"Hm? I just saved you, and you're already going to attack me? "Liu Ping smiled.
The "mermaid" stayed silent for a bit, then shook its head.
It reached its hand out and lightly pulled, opening a path in the void of space.
"Mortal, you carry an extremely rare sealing-type Occultism power, if I kill you, I'm afraid it'll trigger an endless reaction from the Law of Occultism, causing others to notice my whereabouts"
"Furthermore, you just saved my life"
"Then I'll spare you"
Saying so, the "mermaid" walked into the void of space.
Liu Ping said: "Oi, I think we even signed an alliance contract, I'll heal you and you'll help me deal with my enemies, are you going to break the contract?"
The "mermaid" let out a low chuckle, shook its head and said:
"Naive guy, what signed the contract with you is a certain Occultism power from my body, it can completely represent me, so there's no problem with the contract, but ..."
Its three vertical pupils showed a mocking expression as it gave the answer:
"Just now, I've already completely erased it, treating it as if it no longer exists, so the contract is naturally null and void"
The "mermaid" continued with a graceful and calm tone:
"Naive guy, accept this lesson, this is a free lesson that I, who have seen countless Occultism life forms, will bestow upon you during this fortunate rebirth"
"Ignorance is truly the original sin of you humans, I hope you'll be able to overcome it one day"
Saying so, it walked into the void of space and slowly left.
Liu Ping hovered in the air, shrugged and said:
"Although you've erased that Occultism power, it only represents you, you're the one who truly signed the contract with me"
In an instant.
The fish scale with the contract written all over it suddenly appeared.
It floated in the air and let out a sharp screech, as if warning something.
Lines of burning text quickly appeared in front of Liu Ping's eyes:
[You have the final right to interpret this contract]
[The other party's explanation is invalid]
[The other party must fulfill the obligations of the contract, otherwise, their body and soul will be eternally tortured, unable to sleep!]
All the text retracted.
The void of space that was about to close suddenly opened up again.
The "mermaid" jumped out from the void, opened its three vertical pupils wide, stared at Liu Ping and shouted:
"That's impossible!"
"Spells are spells, I am me, the one who signed the contract with you is it, what does that have to do with me!?"
The screech of the fish scale disappeared and turned towards Liu Ping's direction.
The fish scale seemed to be waiting for Liu Ping's explanation.
Liu Ping coughed softly and said: "From my point of view, I've already fulfilled all my obligations, your tricks can't change the original intention of our contract"
"You know you should help me"
"This is the final explanation, you must fulfill this obligation"
The fish scale immediately turned towards the "mermaid" and let out a sharp and stern screech again.
The "mermaid" grinned: "But you forgot one thing, this fish scale belongs to me, I can do whatever I want with it, I can destroy it directly!"
It reached out, grabbed the fish scale and squeezed.
The entire fish scale completely shattered.
The moment it scattered, Liu Ping said: "Although the fish scale is shattered, the contract is still valid, my Sequence and followers are all witnesses, so the contract is still valid"
The "mermaid" roared: "No!
We never said anything about witnesses "
Liu Ping said: "Witnesses don't have to be listed in the contract, but they've always existed and witnessed the entire contract process!"
"Bullshit! There's no such thing! "
"If I say there is, then there is"
"I see ... Bastard! When did you take away the right of final interpretation of the contract! "
The "mermaid" seemed to have woken up from a dream, summoned a black trident that shone with cold light, and said fiercely: "Go to hell, you shameless guy!"
The trident was raised high, its sharp tip filled with indescribable power.
But it did not stab down.
Liu Ping said calmly, "It's clearly stated in our contract that the consequences of attacking our partners are worse than death."
The trident froze in mid-air for a full half a minute before it was finally put down.
