After the sighs, Daoist Wei gradually accepted the fact that the Spirit Contract was only signed for ten years.

Anyway, the Divine Fall Mountain Range might still be in chaos after ten years. If Li Mu wanted to find a place to settle down, serving as a Corpse Cultivator in the Little Demon Realm was certainly the best choice. At worst, he could sign a new Spirit Contract in the future.

As long as Li Mu couldn’t jump out of the Divine Fall Mountain Range and didn’t join the Three Life Gates, he was destined to rely on them.

Daoist Wei transmitted his voice again, "That Three Life Gates dared to plant spies in our Wind and Cloud Immortal City and even dispatched a Soul Cultivator skilled in fate calculation to target you. Since you’ve slain the Yin Yang Cultivator this time, it’s a good way to teach them a lesson.

You should rest well first, and as for other issues, there’s no need for you to worry. They likely won’t dare to come to Wind and Cloud Immortal City to demand an explanation from me.

Moreover, the Three Life Gates is already gearing up for action, and the Heterodox Influences in the eastern part of the Divine Fall Mountain Range seem to have been secretly consolidated by the Three Life Gates. A war with the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks is imminent. Losing a Soul Cultivator skilled in fate calculation at this time is a bitter pill for them to swallow, and if they dare to come looking for trouble, there’s a senior brother here!"

"Thank you, senior brother."

Heihe smiled with satisfaction, glancing in the direction of Lengxi Mountain, his final bit of worry completely dissipating.

After the voice transmission ended, Heihe immediately began packing his things, preparing to visit Li Mu with a generous gift.

To reward the great merit of killing the Yin Yang Cultivator, plus the life-saving grace, it would be thoughtless not to bring a substantial gift.

Li Mu was already so powerful at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment. In the future, when he advances to the Middle or Late Stage, the significance of presenting generous gifts will be very different.

...

After exchanging identities with the East Spring Undying Bone, Wen Jiu immediately began to inventory the spoils of this trip. Besides a Tier Two High-grade Demon Artifact, there wasn’t anything particularly special, but the value was not low. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

The contents of the two storage bags were worth at least a million Low-grade Spirit Stones.

Originally, buying Corpse Mushrooms cost two or three hundred thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones, but unexpectedly, in just a few days, there was not only no loss, but even an increase.

Dozens of thousands more, in fact.

The biggest contributor was Shen Tu. As a Tribulation Cultivator, Shen Tu’s storage bag was filled with more than the usual amounts.

However, compared to these gains, the most significant benefit was actually the soul memory of the Yin Yang Cultivator.

The Yin Yang Cultivator had cultivated fate techniques to the Great Success Realm and had been in that state for seven or eight years. Although there wasn’t much progress in those years, there were more cultivation techniques for fate calculation.

The cultivation effect was far better than the cultivation techniques in Yin Yang Dust’s mind and was quite suitable for the Little Demon Realm.

"Fate technique cultivation can also be accelerated," Wen Jiu smiled with satisfaction, and just then, there was movement outside the cave residence.

Feng Jue arrived first.

Heihe arrived right after.

However, upon seeing the Spirit Contract in Heihe’s hands, Feng Jue quickly retreated, not lingering any longer.

Feng Jue didn’t know about Shen Tu, but he did know that securing a ten-year Spirit Contract must mean Han Li has done Wind and Cloud Immortal City a great service. Coupled with Han Li’s absence these past few days, Feng Jue had reasonably guessed a good portion of the situation.

So Feng Jue wisely withdrew.

Wen Jiu observed and didn’t retain him, simply escorting Heihe to the ancient pavilion at the doorstep, setting up a Sound Insulation Barrier.

"Once again, I thank Fellow Daoist Li for your life-saving grace."

Saying this, Heihe presented the ten-year Spirit Contract Daoist Wei had given him with both hands and then took out a storage bag, in which Heihe had prepared, based on prior understanding, five Tier Two Lower Grade Yin Evil Spirit Medicines, which were quite valuable.

However, this was not all; after all, it was a life-saving grace, plus the potential for Li Mu to be under his command in the future would undoubtedly be a great help. Especially knowing that Li Mu doesn’t like to stand out and doesn’t have great ambitions, even willing to let others take credit for his achievements, he was even more pleased.

Therefore, besides the five Yin Evil Spirit Medicines, he also prepared a very useful Tier Two Mid-grade Spiritual Artifact.

The Five Yin Gathering Evil Pearl.

Gathering Yin Evil Qi, its effect is comparable to a Tier Two Mid-grade Yin Array for Corpse Nourishing; its effect is absolutely superior. Moreover, the Five Yin Gathering Evil Pearl can condense Five Yin Evil Crystals, greatly enhancing the Corpse Body.

This Magical Artifact was obtained from a relic he found; however, it wasn’t very useful to him. Still, due to its rarity, being left by ancient Corpse Cultivators, even if some offered a high price of forty thousand Spirit Stones, he had been reluctant to sell it. But to repay the life-saving grace and to win over Li Mu, he decided to offer it with both hands.

[Six thousand words grand Chapter.

Not much, but not little either.

See you tomorrow.

There will definitely be more tomorrow.]
