I can identify everything, but this is an upgraded version of identification.

"By Heaven and Earth, today I, Fang Shaohong (Murong Fu), have entered into a pact with Su Changming. If he keeps this matter a secret, we will not pursue it further."

The three of them quickly signed the Acquired Soul Contract.

Su Changming felt as if an invisible shackle had been placed over his heart.

He scanned the area with his divine sense and was suddenly surprised.

[Celestial Lock: A shackle inherent to all living beings; breaking it can awaken innate supernatural powers.]

No? What is it?

What is meant by the shackles that all living beings are born with, and how breaking them can awaken innate supernatural powers?

Does this mean that the so-called soul contract has become something else to me?

If I were to reveal what happened here, would there be any problems?

Since this matter concerned the cultivation of the Great Dao, Su Changming dared not experiment lightly without a spiritual medicine to repair the soul.

Su Changming knew nothing about this so-called Heavenly Spirit Lock and wondered if he could find any relevant records in the Flowing Cloud Sect.

"Why does Junior Brother look like this? Could it be that you feel there is a flaw in the oath you just made?"

However, once the oath is made, it cannot be changed or broken; otherwise, one will be forever barred from the path to enlightenment…

Senior Brother Mu spoke earnestly.

"I see, I've learned something new."

When it comes to understanding soul contracts, this Senior Brother Mu is far inferior to Su Changming.

The amount of martial arts and scriptures he studied in a single day at Jinglun Peak was probably equivalent to what others learned in a month.

"Fellow Daoist Su, is this beautiful young lady your... friend?"

Fang Shaohong joked.

"Indeed, now that the soul contract is settled, and this matter is concluded, I, Su, will take my leave."

"Wait a minute!"

Just as Su Changming was about to take his leave, Fang Shaohong waved his hand to stop him.

"Is it because she hasn't yet formed a soul contract? She can swear another oath."

Su Changming spoke up.

"No, no, this fellow Daoist's spiritual energy has been completely transformed into blood spiritual energy, making it impossible for him to cultivate ordinary five elements techniques. Moreover, due to the Blood Burning Pill, his blood and qi have been depleted. Even though he is young now, he can only live for a few more years at most."

Fang Shaohong shook his head.

"What do you mean by that, fellow Daoist...?"

Su Changming lowered his eyes, his thoughts unreadable.

"What I mean is, although I regard this fellow Daoist as a Blood Core, becoming a Blood Core is actually the first step for every Blood Spirit Sect cultivator. If you want to eat people, you must first refine yourself."

She already possesses the qualifications to enter the Blood Spirit Sect.

"Fellow Daoist Su, please choose. If you are unwilling to let the young girl join the Blood Spirit Sect, then she has no more than ten years left to live, unless she finds a rare treasure to prolong her life."

Fang Shaohong smiled slightly.

"Su Rui, what do you think?"

Su Changming asked softly, his face expressionless.

"Master...I want to cultivate immortality..."

Su Rui lowered her head, her eyes filled with suppressed hatred.

Only by continuing her cultivation could she take revenge. Moreover, she was worried that Su Changming would waste rare treasures to prolong the life of a mere maid like her.

To save her, the other party dared to break into the city lord's mansion and dared to be an enemy of the young master of Baicheng. She really felt that she was not worthy of Su Changming, who was so good.

She was clearly just a servant with no special skills...

"Very well, you must remember what the master instructed. The Blood Spirit Sect does not tolerate killing among its members. If you want to stand firm, you must be ruthless!"

Su Changming shouted loudly.

"Fellow Daoist Su, rest assured, if I were to bring him into the sect, I would certainly not let him be harmed by the cultivators of the Blood Spirit Sect."

Fang Shaohong assured him from the side.

Su Changming didn't say anything more.

Unbeknownst to Fang Shaohong, his words were a deliberate hint to Su Rui, implying that if she were strong enough, she could kill him, thus a form of revenge.

"These things are left to you by the master; keep them safe."

Su Changming gave Su Rui a storage bag without any hesitation.

Fang Shaohong had no ulterior motives upon seeing this.

Blood Spirit Sect cultivators generally look down on the possessions of ordinary cultivators.

Although Su Changming treated Su Rui extremely well, even daring to venture deep into the city lord's mansion to rescue her, Fang Shaohong believed that Su Changming would no longer give anything precious to a maid of little value.

Moreover, he will soon break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, and will no longer care about the items of Qi Refining cultivators.

[I have some cultivation insights hidden in my storage bag. I originally planned to give them to you after you returned to the sect, but luckily I was restless and decided to act, otherwise I might never have seen you again.]

[In addition, there is a spirit beast pouch. You can control this beast using the spirit beast ring inside the pouch. This beast is extraordinary and can break restrictions. Hope this helps.]

Cultivate diligently. If you wish to take revenge, you must endure countless hardships. Years may pass, but I hope we, master and servant, will meet again.

Su Changming transmitted his thoughts using his divine sense.

Su Rui was momentarily stunned, but quickly realized that Su Changming was using magic to send her a telepathic message.

So I carefully memorized it all.

"I hope Fellow Daoist Fang will take good care of my friend. Farewell!"

After Su Changming finished speaking, he spared no effort in using his magic power, summoning his Cloud Body, which transformed into a towering cloud and disappeared from their sight in the blink of an eye.

"Brother Mu, this junior brother from the Flowing Cloud Sect is truly extraordinary..."

Seeing Su Changming's ability to fly through the air, Fang Shaohong couldn't help but show a hint of horror.

With such cultivation, he had already reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. Moreover, putting aside everything else, his unpredictable and bizarre escape speed alone was far beyond that of ordinary cultivators.

Moreover, his magical power is pure and profound, and the level of his cultivation technique is probably not low.

"Once I return to the sect, I will definitely have a good talk with this junior brother. Wait for my reply."

Senior Brother Mu also said with a heavy expression.

When did the inner disciples of the Liuyun Sect produce such a skilled junior brother?

"Um……"

Fang Shaohong nodded.

Then he turned his gaze to Su Rui.

"Fellow Daoist, please follow me..."

He began to speak.

Su Rui nodded coldly and followed behind Fang Shaohong.

After leaving the dungeon, he turned to look at Su Rui and suddenly reached out to touch her cheek.

However, Su Rui quickly dodged it.

"Hehe, I was being presumptuous. This is a skin-whitening powder that can remove scars and even birthmarks. I suppose you are also concerned about your appearance."

Seeing the stubbornness in Su Rui's eyes, Fang Shaohong couldn't help but chuckle.

She's very stubborn, just like I used to be.

It's a pity I didn't have anyone to help me back then...

Upon hearing that it could remove birthmarks, Su Rui hesitated for a moment before finally accepting it decisively.

Upon seeing this, Fang Shaohong laughed again.

He genuinely wanted to mentor Su Rui.

If we train him well, we will not only be able to give an explanation to Su Changming, but we can also befriend him.

Furthermore, having gained a trusted follower, their influence within the Blood Spirit Sect was not considered weak.

What he didn't know was that what he thought was giving Su Rui another path had made her hate him immensely.

It wasn't just because they broke her up with Su Changming, but also because her subordinates acted on their own initiative, killing Su Rui's family members in front of her to add some "flavor" to the Blood Elixir...
