Chapter 5: Morax's Contract
Chapter 5: Morax's Contract
The whole process of fusing the soul rings seemed very distressing to the old men, but in reality, there was nothing dramatic at all.
Less than half an hour later, a circle of yellow spirit rings slowly floated up from Ying's body. Ying's spirit power also truly reached level 20.
"Let me see what soul skills Ah Ying has obtained?"
The old priest at the level of Eight-ring Soul Douluo rubbed his palms and asked with great interest.
He was also very curious about what kind of soul skills such a powerful martial soul would have.
"The God turns into an evil star and opens his eyes."
Ying replied in a cold voice.
"Hey!"
Along with the flashing of the yellow soul ring, a terrifying purple crack appeared in front of everyone's eyes, like a dark eye opening, emitting an extremely terrifying pressure. However, the purple crack only flashed for a moment, and the ground below had already turned purple. The terrifying power of thunder was attached to it, and it was not difficult to imagine what would happen if someone had just stood near the purple crack.
A terrifying attacking elemental soul skill, and it also deals group damage. I didn't expect that it was just the first soul skill, but it was so unreasonable; was this the top-notch weapon soul that was like a divine weapon?
Moreover, it seems that this soul skill has nothing to do with the soul beast being hunted. It is said that the more powerful the martial soul is, the more likely this situation will occur; for example, the six-winged angels inherited by the martial soul hall, no matter what soul beast the soul ring is selected, the soul skills will basically not change.
Several people continued to move forward; this time, it was Zhongli's turn.
"I don't want to hunt soul beasts."
Looking at the one-horned earth dragon lizard that had been subdued in front of him, Zhongli suddenly said.
The faces of several old men changed slightly.
"If you don't hunt soul beasts, how can you obtain soul rings and become a soul master? Your Highness, we know that you are kind-hearted."
"No, that's not what I meant. I don't need to hunt soul beasts, there are still ways to get soul rings. My martial soul ability is very special, and I can sign a contract."
Zhongli said calmly. Although what he said was outrageous, he just felt confident.
What Zhongli said was not a lie; as Morax, he was not only the God of Rock and God of War, but also the God of Contract for the entire Teyvat continent. Even during the Demon God War, Morax had been the arbitrator for the gods!
Looking at Zhongli's amber eyes, the unicorn lizard inexplicably felt that this human did not seem to have any hostility; in fact, there seemed to be a sense of closeness towards him.
Zhongli walked forward slowly, squatted in front of the one-horned dragon lizard, and stared into its crystal yellow eyes; the young man's palm gently stroked the dragon lizard's horn.
"Dragon Lizard, are you willing to sign a contract with me, Morax? You will share your power with me; and I will preserve your existence, and let you follow me and evolve together, until you are reunited as an independent individual in the future. When I return to the throne of God, you will also become an immortal existence in this world. The contract is made, and the mountain is eternal!"
Zhongli's voice slowly rang out in the spiritual world of the dragon lizard. This voice seemed to come from the sky, heavy and majestic, as if once the contract was reached, it would form some kind of eternal power, forever imprinted in the dark. Even the gods in the sky could not sever this contract!
"Roar!" The dragon lizard roared and nodded.
The next moment, in front of everyone's shocked gazes, the dragon lizard emitted dots of light and merged into Zhongli's body. The dragon lizard's body slowly fell down, and a circle of yellow spirit rings rose from under Zhongli's feet.
What's going on here?
"Roar!"
The next moment, something even more surprising happened. A one-horned earth dragon lizard made of light appeared in front of Zhongli. It was exactly the same as the one that had just "died", except that it looked a little more transparent and smaller. The dragon lizard rubbed its horn against Zhongli's leg, seeming to be very intimate.
"What name should I call you? Why not just call you Xiao Ruo?"
A shadow of an old friend seemed to flash across Zhongli's eyes; he said softly.
"Ah Li, what's going on? Is your spirit ring still alive?"
An old man saw this scene and said tremblingly that this old man had never encountered such a strange thing in his life.
"That's right. I used my martial spirit ability to sign a contract with it; it contributed its power to me, and I preserved its existence, and helped it evolve and grow. And, one day, it will become an independent individual again."
Zhongli gently stroked the dragon lizard's head and said lightly.
"In the future, perhaps I can help others and sign such a contract, so that a lot of killings can be avoided. It's a pity that my current strength is still a little insufficient."
Zhongli sighed softly and continued.
However, what he didn't say was that after the contract was completed, he felt that his strength had increased a little, about the level of soul power increase. His current real soul power should be level 23.
As the God of Contract, he would also receive feedback when fulfilling a contract. In his previous life on Teyvat, his divine power was so strong not only because he had the most faithful and loyal followers on the continent, but also because he personally witnessed and signed countless contracts.
Those who have signed contracts with him range from mortals to demons, and even from outside the world. And anyone who breaks the contract, no matter who they are, even a demon, will be punished by being eaten by rocks.
Next, they found two more soul beasts to help them break through to the realm of two-ring great soul masters. Zhongli signed a contract with an 800-year-old "Crystal Mammoth" soul beast, making it his second soul ring; while Ying chose a 900-year-old Extreme Electric Hummingbird, which was not as powerful as the Crystal Mammoth, but was incredibly fast.
However, after Ying performed the "Evil Eye Opening" and opened a corner of the Pure Land, this soul beast, which was known for its agility, was like falling into a net; then, under the terrifying light of the naginata, the small body of the soul beast was cut into several pieces, leaving the old men no chance to make a move.
The second soul skill that Ying obtained is called "Eye of Thunder Punishment of Evil Star", which is a soul skill that cooperates with the first soul skill. After being attacked by "Evil Star Opening Eye", all the targets affected by the attack can be granted "Eye of Thunder Punishment of Evil Star" by Ying, using the power of thunder to continuously punish them.
The soul skills that Zhongli obtained were named "Earth's Center" and "Hanging Rock".
Two soul skills, one for attack and one for defense. "Earth's Core" gathers the mighty power of rock elements and transforms them into rock ridges, which can punish the opponent by eating rocks, or protect them.
