Chapter 327 Soul Contract

Hearing that the other party was finally going to confront him, Song Qingming narrowed his eyes, put away the golden mirror in his hand, and looked at the crane puppet beast carefully.

"Since you have guessed my situation, you should also know what I want most now. But don't worry, I still look down on your pseudo-spiritual root body with low qualifications. If I want to possess a body, I have to find a body with better qualifications.

Although you can cultivate to the sixth level of foundation building at this age, your own qualifications are too poor. If there is no help from a master, you can't think about forming a pill in your lifetime.

As long as you take me away from here and help me find a suitable body to possess in the future, I can stay with you temporarily to help you form a pill successfully. What do you think?"

"Senior, do you really have a way to help me form a pill?" Song Qingming asked with some disbelief.

"Hmph! Although I am in trouble here today, I was once a powerful Nascent Soul cultivator. Although I dare not guarantee that I can definitely help you form a pill successfully, I still have a 60% to 70% chance of success. That should be enough, right?" The crane puppet said while pacing in place.

"If it is really as you said, then it should be enough, but how can I take you away from here?"

"It's very simple, you just need to take this puppet beast with you."

"Just take you away like this? Senior, aren't you afraid that I won't keep my promise after I leave here?"

The crane puppet smiled and said, "Since it is a deal, of course we have to make a vow. With this, you can rest assured to take me with you. Otherwise, you and I will have to be on guard against each other every day in the future, which is not an easy thing.

This is a soul contract that cannot attack each other. You and I just need to separate a little soul and attach it to it, and this contract will take effect immediately. If you have no objection, we can sign the contract immediately. With this, you should be relieved."

After the crane puppet beast finished speaking, one of its wings moved slightly, and a black scroll immediately flew over and appeared at Song Qingming's feet.

Song Qingming used his spiritual sense to scan the black scroll and found nothing unusual. He picked it up and opened it to find that the other party had not lied to him. This thing was exactly what it said, a soul contract that restricted both parties.

This kind of thing is not an ordinary spiritual object. It is estimated that its value on the market may not be lower than an ordinary second-level upper-grade magic weapon. Although Song Qingming had heard of this kind of spiritual object a long time ago, it was the first time he had really seen this thing after so many years of cultivation.

The so-called soul contract is a kind of contractual spiritual object in the world of immortal cultivation that is relatively fair to both parties. The cultivators of both sides each divide a strand of soul and put it in it. If one party does not abide by the agreement in the contract and attacks the other party, the soul contract will take effect immediately and directly devour the entire soul of the person who violated the contract.

However, although this soul contract is very useful, once it is signed, it will also leave hidden dangers for both parties. If the contract is not terminated in time in the future and falls into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, it will be a big trouble. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the higher the level of the cultivator, the less likely it is to choose to sign this kind of contract.

But at this moment, Song Qingming was facing an old man in the Nascent Soul stage, and he seemed to have no better choice. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded and agreed to the other party's suggestion.

Seeing that Song Qingming had agreed to this plan, a purple spiritual light suddenly appeared on the crane puppet, and it sank into the black scroll inlaid with the soul contract. After a while, a purple soul appeared on the soul contract.

After imprinting a wisp of its own soul, the crane puppet threw the black scroll directly at Song Qingming.

"Boy! Now it's your turn."

Seeing that there was no big problem with this contract, Song Qingming cast a spell and took the initiative to separate a wisp of his soul, and carefully entered the black scroll. Not long after entering the scroll, Song Qingming felt a chill coming, and the soul he separated seemed to be swallowed by something.

As the black scroll lit up again, a slightly darker soul appeared on the soul contract.

After the soul imprint was completed, Song Qingming immediately felt as if he was being stared at by a pair of cold eyes, and his whole body seemed to be covered with a trace of cold frost. It took him a long time to slowly get used to this strange feeling.

Song Qingming had just embedded his soul and signed the soul contract. The crane puppet that had put away the contract suddenly spoke again:

"Boy! Pretty straightforward, it seems that there is something wrong with your soul. Have you also practiced soul-related exercises?"

"Senior, you are right. I did practice a soul-related exercise earlier, but this exercise is a bit incomplete and can only be practiced to the foundation-building stage."

The crane puppet beast nodded expressionlessly, then waved its wings lightly, and threw another scroll of bamboo slips that looked relatively simple to Song Qingming.

"This set of skills is also for cultivating the soul, and can be cultivated to the Golden Core Realm. I got it by chance many years ago. It is a great honor for me to meet you today. This thing is a gift for you. Don't worry, as long as we can cooperate well in the future, I will not treat you unfairly."

"Thank you for the gift, senior!" After Song Qingming received the scroll, he did not rush to open it to check, but put it in his storage bag, and then quickly bowed to thank the other party.

"Okay! Since the soul contract has been signed, my life and property will be handed over to you, kid. Wait a minute, I will remove the formation and let you out. I have been here for so many years and have wanted to leave for a long time." After saying that, the crane puppet beast left here directly.

After Song Qingming waited for about an incense stick of time, the crane puppet beast returned here.

"I have removed the formation outside. You can go forward and leave this cave and leave here directly."

"Senior! The person who chased me before may still be outside. Should we wait before going out?"

Seeing that the crane puppet beast suddenly became the size of a fist and fell into his hands, Song Qingming hurriedly asked carefully. He had been in this formation for so many days, and he didn't know that the unlucky Sun Jingya had already fled here in a hurry after being trapped in the formation for a few days. He was a little worried that he would run into this person again if he went out now.

"Don't worry, go. That guy has left here after walking out of the Thousand Illusions Formation. You have to be careful in the future. Don't provoke enemies stronger than you. It doesn't matter if you die, but don't let me die with you."
