Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest-Chapter 1118: The Ancient Covenant

The Fleeting Moment Tower, capable of altering the flow of time, was of such immense value that it surpassed any treasure Wang Chen possessed.

Not all possessions though, as he had only tapped into a minor function of the Ancient Taoist Stele.

But it was undeniable that the role of the Fleeting Moment Tower was tremendous!

With sufficient Spiritual Energy to support it, this treasure could significantly shorten Wang Chen’s cultivation time, helping him advance to higher realms, towards Divinity Transformation, Integration or even Mahayana, none of which were out of reach.

The Fleeting Moment Tower is definitely a treasure coveted by the Power Men!

What Wang Chen did not know was how powerful Bai Susu would be at her peak, and if she ever coveted the Fleeting Moment Tower, it would complicate things immensely.

Although Wang Chen had a good impression of her, human hearts can hardly withstand tests.

Monsters are no different.

Seeing Wang Chen’s hesitation, Bai Susu earnestly asked, "Taoist Friend Wang, are you aware of the ancient covenant?"

"The ancient covenant?"

Wang Chen was momentarily stunned—he had never heard of it.

Bai Susu explained, "The ancient covenant was an alliance formed in the ancient times to combat the Heavenly Demons from the Void, agreed upon by humans and the Monster Race, and recognized across the myriad of worlds!"

Although myriad wars had erupted between humans and monsters since ancient times, with human cultivators hunting monsters and monsters slaughtering human cultivators, it had become part of the laws of the Immortal Realm.

However, both humans and monsters shared a common formidable enemy: the Void Heavenly Demons!

Born in the Void, the Heavenly Demons possessed an instinct to devour and plunder all living beings, making every realm invaded – whether inhabited by humans, monsters, or any other heterogenous races, as their prey.

The root of the Evil Wraith creatures stems from these Void Heavenly Demons.

To combat the terrifying Void Heavenly Demons, humans and monsters reached an agreement, or rather, a permanent treaty.

In the fight against the Heavenly Demons, both races would unite as one, forbidden from stabbing each other in the back!

After Bai Susu finished explaining the ancient covenant, Wang Chen was still puzzled—what did this have to do with him and Bai Susu?

Bai Susu raised her right hand’s index and middle fingers, pointing towards the Firmament and said in a deep voice, "Following the ancient covenant, I swear to form an eternal good karma with this man before me, may heaven annihilate me if I break this oath!"

Boom!

As soon as her words fell, a sudden thunderous roar echoed above the flying ship.

Wang Chen immediately felt an immense power descending from the unknown, penetrating his Divine Soul, Sea of Consciousness, and Dantian Nascent Soul!

Wang Chen had a thought.

Intuition told him that he could resist this force with no repercussions.

But why refuse?

He allowed this intangible power to connect him with Bai Susu, establishing a bond between them, instantly creating a feeling of heartfelt understanding.

The so-called ’Wings of a phoenix do not make one fly as a pair, but the touch of hearts makes the connection clear’, might be just this!

Bai Susu smiled charmingly: "Now, can you trust me?"

Wang Chen smiled helplessly.

Undoubtedly, Bai Susu had seen through his hesitations and doubts, and thus had proactively established this ancient covenant with him.

Although Bai Susu had not made it very clear, Wang Chen knew that such a covenant was extremely solemn, no less serious than a Heavenly Dao oath.

Most importantly, Bai Susu had made the vow, but Wang Chen had not yet.

This meant it was a great show of trust unilaterally from her side!

With a sigh in his heart, Wang Chen also raised his right hand, "Following the ancient covenant..."

But before Wang Chen could finish, Bai Susu grabbed his hand and said with a pursed lip smile, "No need, I trust you."

Wang Chen locked eyes with her, feeling a deep, soul-stirring sensation.

Calming his mind, Wang Chen gave a wry smile, "Well then, I know a place that’s very safe and ideal for your secluded cultivation, but it’s quite far away, so I need to trouble you for a bit."

Bai Susu did not care at all, nor did she probe further: "No problem."

Thus, as they were close to reaching Nine States City, Wang Chen retracted the Magical Treasure Flying Ship, and then used the True Form Chart of the Mystical Mirage Dragon to collect Bai Susu and Yuanyuan together.

Initially, he was worried that the True Form Chart of the Mystical Mirage Dragon might not be able to encapsulate Bai Susu.

After all, her cultivation level was profound and unfathomable, far exceeding any subjects Wang Chen had previously dealt with; the likelihood of failure was very high.

Even though Bai Susu was very cooperative.

If such a situation occurred, then Wang Chen would only be able to take her back to Luodu using the flying warship.

The journey would be far too long!

However, it succeeded in one go, astonishingly without a hitch.

Latterly, Wang Chen came to know that the True Form Chart of the Mystical Mirage Dragon was extremely compatible with Bai Susu; as long as she was willing, being contained within the chart was no problem.

Moreover, if Bai Susu sets her mind to it, she could even seize ownership of the True Form Chart of the Mystical Mirage Dragon!

Having resolved this issue, Wang Chen returned to Nine States City, canceled the room he was staying in at the inn, and then headed to the Teleportation Hall of the Immortal Alliance to purchase a "flight ticket" to Luodu.

The next morning, Wang Chen returned to Luodu via the Teleportation Array.

He did not stop to rest in Luodu, but directly rushed to the Mysterious Origin Dark Immortal Mansion.

All through the dusty journey, not until he entered the Immortal Mansion did Wang Chen reopen the True Form Chart of the Mystical Mirage Dragon, and let Bai Susu and Yuanyuan out.

"Wow!"

The abundant spiritual energy inside the Immortal Mansion made Yuanyuan widen her eyes, showing an intoxicated expression.

The next moment, her eyes widened even further.

Because the little girl saw Su Ziling.

Wang Chen smiled and said: "Senior Bai, let me introduce you. This is my Taoist partner, Su Ziling."

Compared to the little girl’s shock, Bai Susu was undoubtedly much more composed, nodding and smiling at Su Ziling: "Hello."

Su Ziling was very nervous: "Ziling, greetings, Senior."

The beauty and demeanor of Bai Susu, as well as the aura that she inadvertently exuded, all exerted a great pressure on her.

It made her feel utterly unworthy!

Wang Chen noticed Su Ziling’s unease, smiled and held her hand, saying: "Senior Bai is a very kind person. She will cultivate here in the future. If you encounter any problems in your cultivation, you can ask her for advice."

Although Bai Susu was from the Monster Race, given her age and cultivation level, guiding Su Ziling, this "Shrimp", would definitely not be an issue.

Being held by Wang Chen’s big hand, Su Ziling felt much more reassured, and she shyly smiled.

"And this little girl..." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

Wang Chen pulled Yuanyuan over and introduced: "Her name is Yuanyuan, she used to be my... um, maid."

A maid so young?

Su Ziling was stunned and before she could come back to her senses, Yuanyuan took her other hand and said, "Sister, hello."

Su Ziling bewildered: "Hello."

Wang Chen released her hand, allowing her to interact with the little girl, while he himself concentrated his mana to conjure a key.

He handed it to Bai Susu.

The same key, Su Ziling also had one, that could control some functions of the Mysterious Origin Dark Immortal Mansion.

Bai Susu, without being polite, swallowed it directly.

She looked around and said contentedly: "This place is really nice, you found a great place!"
