Chapter 1039 – Blood Contract
Chapter 1039 The Blood Contract
A day later, Xu Chuniang rushed to the agreed location, and after waiting for about half an incense stick of time, a bat quietly approached her and landed on the ground, transforming into a bat-winged demon.
“Just in time.”
Saying so, the bat-winged demonic man threw a scroll to her, “This is the blood contract, if there’s no problem, just type your soul breath into it.”
Xu Chuniang took the scroll and opened it, on the scroll, blood was used as the text, recording the contents of the deal between the two.
After reading it, she didn’t rush to punch soul breath into the scroll, but instead looked at the bat-winged demon.
“What is a blood contract?”
“Not even knowing what a blood contract is and somehow appearing in the Threefold Prison, could it be that something went wrong when you ascended?”
The bat-winged demon gave her an unexpected look and explained, “A blood contract is a greatly binding contract made with blood and soul breath as the medium and the seven Demon Emperors as the witnesses, and it is also the one that is used by the largest number of people among all the contracts in the entire Demon Realm.
Those who violate the blood contract will be cursed by the seven emperors, and watch with their own eyes as their divine souls dissipate bit by bit, and die in endless pain.”
Xu Chuniang said without moving, “I did indeed make some missteps during my ascension, and I was accidentally teleported here not long after arriving at the First Heavy Domain, which is why I don’t know anything about the Demon Realm.
How do I know if the blood contract you mentioned is true?”
Being questioned, the bat-winged demonic man was not the least bit annoyed, as he threw Xu Chuniang a bone fragment regarding one, “This is what I promised to give you, so you can take a look at it first.”
Xu Chunniang took the bone chip and surveyed it, carefully probing a strand of divine sense into it.
The contents recorded in the bone fragment were all common sense in the demon realm, but all of them could only be seen in the first half, and the second half of the content was covered by a layer of blood mist, making it impossible to see truly.
“The content related to the blood contract is in the sixth line, I purposely removed the covering, so take a closer look.”
Xu Chuniang’s divine sense landed on the location the other party was talking about, and indeed, she saw the description about blood qi, which was exactly the same as what the bat-winged demon had said.
She pulled her divine sense out of the bone fragment and returned it to the other party, calmly saying.
“On its own, I can’t be sure if what you said is true or false, after all, this bone fragment was also given to me by you, so it shouldn’t be too difficult to move something on it, right?”
The Batwing Demon Man was exasperated and laughed, “You little fellow, your cultivation isn’t high, but your guts aren’t small, you actually dare to question me.
The blood contract is something that everyone in the entire demonic world knows about, before coming here, I didn’t know that you were so ignorant that you hadn’t even heard of the blood contract, so how could you tamper with it in advance?”
Xu Chuniang thought about it for a moment, and it seemed to be true, but she was accustomed to being cautious, so for her to listen to the Batwing Demon’s side of the story, and directly input her soul breath into the blood contract, she was not too assured.
Seeing her hesitation, the bat-winged demon thought for a moment.
“Let’s do it this way, it just so happens that I still have to sign the blood contract with a few other people, if you don’t believe me, when I sign the blood contract with the others in a while, you can just ask them for proof.”
“Okay.”
After a moment’s thought, Xu Chuniang simply agreed to the other party’s proposal, put away the blood contract, and followed behind the bat-winged demon.
In the next few hours, the Batwing Demon ran through half of the Demon Capital, signing blood pacts with six Demons of varying cultivation levels in six different places.
Among these six people, the lowest cultivation was at the Human Demon Middle Realm, and the highest cultivation was at the Heavenly Demon Beginning Realm.
After watching the last demon who had finished signing the blood contract walk away, the bat-winged demon turned to look at Xu Chuniang, “Now you should believe that I didn’t lie to you, right? The blood contract that was given to you, I’ve already punched my soul breath into it ahead of time.” Xu Chunniang took out the blood contract and directly punched her soul breath into it like the six devils did before.
The blood contract emitted an eye-catching blood light, transforming into two brands that flew towards the two men respectively before the blood contract returned to calm.
After such a long time of seeking evidence, she already knew that the other party was not lying, and the price offered was fair.
Seeing that she finally signed the blood contract, the bat-winged demon smiled with satisfaction, took out the bone fragment and casually caressed it, and after throwing it to her, he added a bat feather.
“Take it, there is also this, once a month action, the specific time and place, I will notify you with the bat feather in three days, these days, I advise you had better not to leave the magic capital, and also, leave the cost of violating the blood contract is very serious, don’t be smart.”
As soon as the words fell, the bat-winged demon’s figure disappeared in place.
Xu Chuniang swept a glance at the bone fragments and bat feathers floating in mid-air, and after putting the bat feathers away smoothly, she escaped into her divine sense into the bone fragments and continued to check out the records therein.
The layer of blood mist that had covered the text earlier had also completely disappeared.
Xu Chuniang quickly skimmed through all the contents of the bone fragment with a single glance, and finally, in the second half of the bone fragment, she saw the topographical map of the Triple Prison.
Behind the topographical map of the Triple Prison, there was also a detailed map of the First Prison and the Second Prison, and it had to be said that this bone chip given by the bat-winged demonic man was still quite complete.
This transaction, overall, was not a loss.
After reading through the contents of the bone chip, Xu Chuniang had a rough understanding of the Demon Realm’s next three prisons.
Sure enough, the Demon Realm was still the same Demon Realm she was familiar with, the rule of the seven Demon Emperors had brought order to the Demon Realm, but it couldn’t change the nature of the Demons as militant killers.
In the entire Devil Realm, the only places designated in each of the three prisons where private fights are forbidden are the few Devil Capitals, and the rest of the areas are not subject to this restriction.
Therefore, most of the Devil World is chaotic and dangerous, but fortunately, the seven Devil Emperors have explicitly ordered that when the devils from the high prison go to the low prison, they are not allowed to innocently kill the low-ranked devils.
On the contrary, if one was like Xu Chuniang, who had only come to the Three Heavy Prisons at the beginning of the Human Demon Realm, they would not be protected by this regulation.
Therefore, for her, staying in this Triple Prison was indeed dangerous.
Once she stepped out of the confines of the Devil’s Capital, she could be attacked by high-level demons at any time, but as long as she stayed in the Devil’s Capital peacefully, there was no danger to her life.
Xu Chuniang put away the bone fragments, intending to take a good turn in the Magic Capital before the operation started, to further recognize and understand the real demon world.
Following the map’s guidance, she found the center of the Demon Capital, and compared to the outer perimeter, this place was much more lively, with stores opening up on both sides of the street, and quite a number of people setting up stalls to sell something.
“Freshly picked neon leaves, five thousand magic crystals a piece, first come first served.”
“Dwarf Demon’s residual soul, priced at 10,000, sold cheaply!”
“Come and see, freshly arrived Thunder Devil Dragon Essence Blood, 30,000 magic crystals a drop, miss this village and there’s no more store!”
Xu Chuniang looked over at the sound of the voice, she had only learned not long ago from the bone fragments given to her by the Batwing Demon that the Thunder Demon Dragon was a powerful dragon-shaped magical beast, with some Heavenly Demon After Realm cultivation when it reached adulthood, and even more proficient in Thunder Technique, which was very tricky.
She didn’t expect that here, she actually encountered a Thunder Demon Dragon Essence Blood seller.
