#3259 - Successor
“Senior, stop drawing me pictures. I, Wang, have encountered too many ‘old grandpas’ in my life. Each one makes various promises, but once they have a chance to recover, they immediately turn hostile!”
Wang Hao shook his head and smiled. Whether the other party keeps their promise after recovering depends entirely on them. As the saying goes, Wang Hao won't place his hopes on the other party's moral standards.
It was hard for Wang Hao to trust Fairy Fluorescent Fire, especially with her initially aloof demeanor.
Once she recovers, she might just kill him first to prevent these disgraceful events from being exposed.
“What exactly do you want?” Fairy Fluorescent Fire asked impatiently, cutting straight to the point.
“With someone of your status, Senior, unless we sign a soul contract, I, Wang, will find it difficult to feel at ease!” Wang Hao said coldly.
“A soul contract?” Hearing this excessive demand, Fairy Fluorescent Fire's expression instantly changed. “Impossible, absolutely impossible! What is my status? How could I possibly sign a soul contract with you?”
“Even if you kill me, I will not sign a soul contract!”
Soul contracts, as a means of control involving the soul, are essentially for life once signed, unless both parties agree, it is impossible to unilaterally terminate it.
Generally, soul contracts are mainly used to control spirit beasts, spirit insects, and some servants.
How could she, a dignified fairy, become like a servant?
“Hmph, then don't blame Wang for being impolite,” Wang Hao snorted coldly upon hearing this, immediately conjuring a divine lightning bolt and blasting it towards Fairy Fluorescent Fire.
At the same time, Wang Hao released the Azure Lotus, and eerie demonic flames blazed fiercely, burning towards Fairy Fluorescent Fire's divine soul.
In an instant, Fairy Fluorescent Fire let out a shrill cry.
Both methods had the ability to harm even a Grand Ascension Completion cultivator. If Fairy Fluorescent Fire were at her peak, Wang Hao naturally wouldn't be able to do anything to her, but who told her to fall to this state?
Before long, Fairy Fluorescent Fire's divine soul was three-tenths weaker than before, and the pain on her face intensified.
However, even now, the other party showed no signs of yielding, as if embracing the intention of dissipating her soul.
“So she is a celestial, perhaps she has already developed a will to die!” Wang Hao thought to himself.
Among cultivators, there is no shortage of those who are greedy for life and afraid of death, but there is also no lack of those who are firm and unyielding, especially celestials.
“The difficulty of becoming an immortal, Senior, you should deeply understand. Are you willing to just die like this? And die at the hands of a mere cultivator like me?”
“Senior, you have fallen to this state, you should have many enemies, right? They harmed you like this, don't you want revenge?”
“Junior is just timid, signing a soul contract is just to want a guarantee, and not to enslave Senior. Even if you gave Junior the courage, Junior wouldn't dare to do that!”
When coercion failed, Wang Hao began to persuade patiently.
Wang Hao no longer insisted on a “master-servant soul contract,” stating that both parties could sign a relatively equal soul contract.
Secondly, Wang Hao also guaranteed that as long as his cultivation level reached Fairy Fluorescent Fire's level, and both parties could speak equally without a soul contract, he would abolish the soul contract, and the two parties would have nothing to do with each other.
Fairy Fluorescent Fire sneered, unimpressed by Wang Hao's words.
She only looked like a young girl, and wasn't truly naive. She wasn't so easily fooled.
Wang Hao's promises seemed impossible to her. Once a soul contract was signed, she would gain almost no benefits, while Wang Hao's benefits would be enormous.
Moreover, she believed that even if she fully helped Wang Hao, Wang Hao's hope of becoming an immortal would not be great, let alone catch up with her realm!
To take a step back, even if Wang Hao could achieve it, her lifespan would probably be running out by then.
Immortals do not have lifespan limits in the ordinary sense, but it is also difficult to live indefinitely.
Heavenly tribulations, the five declines of immortals, and so on, can all cause immortals to fall.
She didn't think that Wang Hao could catch up with her realm before she died.
Therefore, rather than being controlled by Wang Hao and seeing no hope of freedom, she would rather choose to have her soul dissipate.
But the next moment, Wang Hao took the initiative to release the protection around his body, displaying his nascent soul and physical body.
Fairy Fluorescent Fire couldn't help but shrink her pupils.
“Senior, I am only ten thousand years old. With my physical body reaching perfection through dual cultivation of Dharma and body, I should be considered a genius, right? Please have some confidence in me. The True Dragon Ancestor was able to choose me, why can't Senior choose me?”
“What? You are only ten thousand years old? A Grand Ascension Late Stage at ten thousand years old, and still a physical body completion cultivator?”
Fairy Fluorescent Fire had seen countless geniuses, but a Grand Ascension Completion cultivator at ten thousand years old was rarely heard of.
Especially the Void Refinement, Body Integration, and Grand Ascension stages, which all require tens of thousands of years of cultivation to reach their peak.
Although some rare resources can be used to shorten the time, the necessary efforts of cultivation cannot be reduced at all.
If one is greedy for speed, causing the realm to be unstable, it may lead to impure mana, insufficient comprehension of the laws of the Dao, low solidity of the Dharma form, etc. Even if one barely breaks through, the potential will be exhausted, causing oneself to be trapped in the next realm.
Not to mention a Grand Ascension Late Stage cultivator at ten thousand years old, even a Grand Ascension Initial Stage cultivator is rarely heard of.
Seeing Fairy Fluorescent Fire's expression, Wang Hao smiled. He was very experienced in taming 'old grandpas', even though Fairy Fluorescent Fire was different from Ao Yunguang and Tian Chengzi, and the difficulty of taming was not on the same level.
But the higher the difficulty, the greater the reward.
In the stages below Void Refinement, Tian Chengzi gave Wang Hao great help. It can be said that without Tian Chengzi, it would have been impossible for Wang Hao to cultivate so quickly and ascend to the Spirit Realm so early.
In several dangerous situations, he relied on Tian Chengzi to successfully escape.
And when he reached the Body Integration realm, Ao Yunguang successfully took over, also providing Wang Hao with no small amount of help.
The Wang family was able to develop so quickly, and Ao Yunguang's 'small treasury' made a great contribution.
But after Wang Hao reached the Grand Ascension Middle Stage, Ao Yunguang could no longer keep up with his pace and could hardly provide much help.
Wang Hao had long completed his promise, making him a normal cultivator, and had long regained his freedom and was no longer kept by his side.
The position of 'old grandpa' was vacant again, waiting for a long time, and Fairy Fluorescent Fire was very suitable.
“Senior, I apologize for making you laugh. Junior began practicing body refinement techniques in the Qi Refining stage, and my physical body realm has never fallen behind. Not long ago, I also obtained the 'Dragon Forging Immortal Source Scripture' passed down by the True Dragon Ancestor, successfully broke through, brought my physical body to perfection, and condensed the first immortal bone!”
Wang Hao smiled slightly, explaining as if showing off.
As he spoke, he flipped his palm, and a golden immortal bone was displayed in front of Fairy Fluorescent Fire.
“It really is an immortal bone!” Fairy Fluorescent Fire was stunned at first, and then immediately showed a hint of excitement.
However, as if thinking of something, she quickly regained her composure.
“Junior also cultivates an immortal realm technique called 'Returning Origin Immortal Scripture'. If I have Senior's guidance, I think my hope of becoming an immortal will be greatly increased. It is not impossible to catch up with Senior in the future. Immortal source fruits are not something that everyone can take out!”
“Even if it is to help Senior avenge, Junior can also contribute some strength.”
Wang Hao revealed a little more, then closed his mouth and said nothing more. He didn't believe that Fairy Fluorescent Fire was willing to dissipate her soul. After being imprisoned by the Zuo Guang True God for so long, didn't she have any hatred in her heart? Can't it really be a couple?
