Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 264 The Third Covenant

Chu Danqing was thinking that if he hadn't come tonight, and Fang Yiliu had killed the old man and run away with the inheritance, it might have really caused a major disaster.

Besides some pills for cultivation and healing, the old man carried two other very important items with him.

Firstly, it contains the old man's life experience and insights, as well as a series of knowledge about spirit beasts; this book is a knowledge-based item.

【You Sui Tong Yan】

【Type: Knowledge Item】

[Quality: Excellent]

[Durability: 100/100]

[Effect: Reading can increase the level of Summoning/Summoning Spell/Command/Nurture/Spirit Mastery]

The other is the manufacturing technology of Yashamaru, which is a mature technology with a very high potential.

It can grant a person the full power of the Yaksha King, but unfortunately, it is limited to the Yaksha, a mythical beast species.

However, it is also a knowledge-based item.

【The Blood Chronicles of the Yaksha】

【Type: Knowledge Item】

[Quality: Excellent]

[Durability: 100/100]

[Effect 1: Following the recipe, Yaksha Pills can be crafted, granting the user the power of Yakshas upon consumption.]

[Effect 2: Reading can increase your Harmony Mastery level]

If these two knowledge-based items were to fall into Fang Yiliu's hands, they might actually help him rise to prominence.

Otherwise, how could it be called a stroke of luck?

In addition, Chu Danqing also confiscated a Yashamaru.

This Yaksha Pill is not the immature product that the old man gave Fang Yiliu before.

You can tell just by looking at the color of the skin.

The crystals themselves are purer, and the blood color is also more pure.

Unlike the Yaksha Pill that Fang Yiliu took, which had mottled impurities.

Fortunately, this power is temporary, not permanent. As long as there is no blood or food to replenish it, it can be replaced with higher-quality Yasha-maru after it is depleted.

After taking one look, Chu Danqing casually buried the Yasha Maru on the spot.

Leaving aside the craftsmanship, just looking at the raw materials, Chu Danqing lost interest after a while.

One of them is the spirit beast Yaksha soldier, which is indispensable.

And it has to be a whole one.

Then, a dose of Orchid Blood Dew is prepared.

One Yashamaru represents a person and a spirit beast.

Chu Danqing naturally could not use this technology.

As for improvements? After a quick review, Chu Danqing concluded that the technology used Orchid Blood Dew as its core material.

Without it, we are nothing but rootless duckweed.

However, for Chu Danqing, the harmonizing part of this technique is extremely valuable.

If the other party uses it for good, they might actually achieve great things.

Looking at these two knowledge-based items, Chu Danqing could only sigh that it was truly a stroke of luck.

Especially the Harmony Mastery skill, which is indeed quite difficult to obtain in this summoning-based beast taming world.

Knowledge-based items related to summoning should be easier to obtain.

"Do you want it? I'll make a copy for you." Chu Danqing indicated that everyone should have a copy, and handed it to Yang Qianyuan to take a look.

Originally, it definitely couldn't be given to Yang Qianyuan, since he still needed it to improve his cultivation efficiency in the cultivation room.

However, knowledge can be shared, and copying it for Yang Qianyuan was not a difficult task.

"No need, the contents here are insights about Yakshas and Ghostly Night Bats, I don't need them." Yang Qianyuan took it, briefly flipped through a few pages, and then returned it to Chu Danqing.

Compared to Chu Danqing, who accepted all comers, the natives of this trial world naturally had some selection criteria.

Even if Yang Qianyuan had a need, it should at least be knowledge related to the Heavenly Mystery type of spirit beasts.

Neither of the two documents in Chu Danqing's hands matched.

"Alright, I'll keep it myself." Chu Danqing said, stuffing it into her storage space.

With these two knowledge-based items, the efficiency of improving my mastery skills should be much faster.

After burying the bodies of Fang Yiliu, the old man, and the Night-Winged Bat, Chu Danqing returned to Meilong Town with Yang Qianyuan.

On the way, Chu Danqing asked, "Any clues about the Lotus Seed you mentioned before?"

Chu Danqing was still thinking about his series of missions.

Upon hearing this, Yang Qianyuan said, "I have done some divination these past few days and have found some clues."

"It's just a bit troublesome to get it."

Upon hearing this, Chu Danqing narrowed his eyes: "What trouble? I can lend a hand in matters of force."

All he can do is help with fighting and killing; he can't really help with anything else.

Of course, he wasn't the one who started the fighting; it was Da Bao and his group who did it.

I am a super mascot that is on standby 24/7.

"Not yet, but we've pinpointed the approximate location."

"There's a very high chance that the Lotus Seed is in the Yun Mansion on the next street." "Once I locate it, I'll find a way to retrieve it for you, Brother Chu," Yang Qianyuan said.

The words themselves weren't problematic, but to Chu Danqing they sounded like those of a lawless outlaw.

"Let's go visit them tomorrow morning and see if we can buy it," Chu Danqing quickly stopped him.

Although he wanted it, it ultimately belonged to someone else.

They may not be valued in the Yun family, but that is not a reason for them to seize by trickery and force.

“That’s fine. Not many people like the Lotus of Unity anyway, so it’s better to get it.” Yang Qianyuan did not refute Chu Danqing’s choice.

Acquiring something through other means will always carry some risks, but if it is purchased legitimately, it will be more secure and you won't have to worry about anything in the future.

"Qian Yuan, you're from the An Yong royal family, aren't you?" Chu Danqing suddenly changed the subject and asked.

When Yang Qianyuan went out to gather information in the afternoon, Chu Danqing was also gathering information.

An Yongchao's surname was Yang, followed by his generational name.

“Zhaoming Shishou, Zhenqian Taiheng, Chongren Zhenwu, Shaode Guangcheng.” Chu Danqing recited the generational names in the genealogy and continued, “So you belong to the Qian generation.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Qianyuan did not panic at all, but readily admitted: "I am indeed a member of the An Yong royal family."

“If we consider seniority, His Majesty is my cousin,” Yang Qianyuan added.

Chu Danqing was somewhat surprised to hear this. She had thought the other party would try to hide it, but unexpectedly, they admitted it directly.

"Oh, so you've met the emperor? No wonder you know so much about him." Chu Danqing changed the subject.

That's enough; there's no need to ask anything else.

His character, abilities, and status all exceeded Chu Danqing's expectations, making him a very suitable ally.

"Yes, I have. I was three years old that year. My father had just passed away, and I had an audience with the late emperor once in the imperial study."

"His Majesty has never seen him before," Yang Qianyuan said bluntly. "The royal family of Anyong is numerous, and they have all been enfeoffed as vassal kings. Without an imperial edict, they are not allowed to enter the capital."

"So Jiaoying Prefecture is actually your fiefdom?" Chu Danqing suddenly thought of this.

“It was passed down from my ancestors. My father only had one son, me, so there were no brothers to divide it among. I am indeed the Prince of Jiaoying.” Yang Qianyuan had no intention of hiding anything.

Since Chu Danqing hadn't asked before, he naturally wouldn't say anything.

However, he was actually prepared for this situation.

Since you need something from someone, you should treat them with sincerity.

The truth will eventually come out, so it's better to be open about it.

"I never expected that I would have a vassal king as a friend," Chu Danqing said with a smile.

It's good to be a feudal lord, especially one with real power over their own territory.

“Brother Chu is joking. I, as a prince, do not have the power to establish my own residence. I can only be considered a noble but idle person.” Yang Qianyuan said helplessly, “Once I leave the palace, all I have left is my status.”

The growing power of regional princes could affect the central government, but because they were members of the royal family, they could not be treated harshly.

In the end, all that's left is face and status; all political power, military power, and so on are gone.

"I actually have a question too." Yang Qianyuan hesitated for a moment before asking, "The troops under Commander Xiong, are they raised by you, Brother Chu?"

"How could that be? Where would I get the money to support a hundred thousand soldiers?" Chu Danqing immediately replied, "They support them themselves."

Yang Qianyuan felt something was amiss. Over 100,000 troops?

Then why don't you rebel?

Without going into too much detail, as long as you have ten thousand, you will be the one sitting on the throne.

Chu Danqing realized he had omitted a number and quickly corrected himself: "Don't worry, I can only mobilize a few people, about five hundred right now."

Because Chu Danqing had witnessed higher levels of power, he felt that more than 500 people were not a lot.

But Yang Qianyuan was different; he felt that eight hundred men were enough to fight a Jingnan campaign.

Fortunately, he didn't say those words aloud.

"Where does this Commander Xiong keep his troops?" Yang Qianyuan asked tentatively.

"Well, you'll find out later." Seeing that the conversation had already reached this point, Chu Danqing took the opportunity to bring up the Mountain and River Alliance.

After spending about half a month together, Chu Danqing had gotten to know him pretty well.

That's just in time to sign the Treaty of Alliance.

The longer the night, the more likely things will go wrong.

As he spoke of the covenant between mountains and rivers, the nebula within the Prophecy Spider spun wildly. It sensed that Yang Qianyuan's predetermined fate had been shattered, and that dark and hopeless ending had been changed at this moment.

The prophecy spider kept weaving its web, which was not a normal structure but looked extremely chaotic.

Yang Qianyuan swallowed hard. He could sense that the alliance Chu Danqing spoke of was the opportunity for him to break free from his predetermined future.

"Sign, definitely sign!" Yang Qianyuan agreed without hesitation, his body trembling noticeably with excitement as he spoke.

Seeing this, Chu Danqing asked, "Are you alright? Or..."

"Sign first, let's sign first." Yang Qianyuan didn't care about anything else.

Chu Danqing couldn't persuade him otherwise, so she had no choice but to add him to the list first.

The moment the contract was signed, Yang Qianyuan could feel the shackles on his body shatter instantly.

Like a bird soaring into the blue sky, or a fish entering the vast ocean, we are no longer bound by any constraints.

"Brother Chu, when can this alliance be used?" Yang Qianyuan asked.

"You'll find out in a while. Don't worry about me not being able to find you; you can't escape me no matter where you are," Chu Danqing said sincerely.

Yang Qianyuan could understand what Chu Danqing meant, but he always felt that these words were not very kind.

However, he didn't dwell on it, since he was already bound to Chu Danqing.
