Chapter 702: Chapter 274: Talisman Treasure Strike, Blood Contract Secured (Part 2)

In response, Zhou Changwang remained expressionless.

Quickly tidying up the battlefield, he didn’t linger at all, and swiftly dashed off in one direction.

At the moment of rushing out, he couldn’t help but glance in a particular direction.

That direction was where the tribulation cultivator had hidden before.

The other was arguably the only cultivator nearby who had seen his face.

However, considering that his current appearance bore no resemblance to his usual self, he abandoned the thought of silencing the witness.

Besides not having enough time,

another reason was that.

During his battle, it also coincided with the Black Market’s gradual dispersal, with countless cultivators pouring out in all directions.

The fight began suddenly and ended very quickly.

Yet the intense combat shockwaves and resounding noise still caught the attention of countless cultivators, naturally including some bold ones quickly closing in.

From afar, at least a dozen cultivators ’witnessed’ this battle.

And personally saw the scene where he swiftly slew Ye Hongyi.

Thus, he no longer paid them any mind, his figure flickering, disappearing from the spot.

After traveling a distance, he decisively tossed several God Avoiding Pills around himself, then immediately used the Earth Escape Technique to change his direction and quickly left from another direction.

Ten breaths later.

Suddenly, a figure, like a raging storm, quickly approached from the direction of Divine Wind Valley, hovering directly in the void.

This person, tall and burly, just by standing there, exuded a deep and unfathomable aura, full of majesty and dominance.

It was the Valley Master of Divine Wind Valley, Ye Yanshu.

At this moment, feeling the faint remnants of primordial qi fluctuations around, his face turned incomparably grim, and almost immediately, his gaze fell on a cultivator in the corner, "Who did it? Where did they run off to?"

The man was the tribulation cultivator who had previously faced Zhou Changwang.

At this moment, his heart was bitter.

The instant Zhou Changwang left, he wanted to escape.

But fearing the other might decide to kill to silence him, he dared not act rashly. Only after confirming the other wouldn’t return within four or five breaths did he get up from his hiding spot and plan to quickly leave this troublesome place.

As for his original plan, naturally, it had to be abandoned.

Who would have thought?

Just as he emerged from the place, he ran into the Flying-Sword-speedily-arriving Valley Master Ye Yanshu of Divine Wind Valley, whose sharp eyes immediately determined from his original position that he had likely witnessed the entire battle.

Despite his bitterness, he dared not hesitate, quickly saying, "I didn’t see clearly what he looked like, just that his cultivation seemed not high, only at the Second-Layer Foundation Establishment.

But his techniques were unbelievably varied.

His swordsmanship was also extremely skilled.

One flying sword after another flowed out, ultimately forming a sword array with unfathomable power.

Right.

He also seemed to have mastered the Foundation Establishment True Body, which allowed him to, in a short time, deal with Ye... Elder Ye... As for the direction he escaped to, he ran that way... I was too scared to follow, so I’m not sure if he changed directions afterward..."

He knew that the means of Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators were unfathomable.

Not to mention that the Valley Master of Divine Wind Valley was undoubtedly the strongest in the Divine Wind Valley Marketplace, so he didn’t dare lie, honestly reporting everything.

Of course, he held something back, not revealing everything.

At least, the summoning talisman technique Zhou Changwang used, although he witnessed it, he didn’t mention a word.

"His cultivation is not high, only Second-Layer Foundation Establishment?

He mastered the Foundation Establishment True Body and is skilled in swordsmanship?"

Ye Yanshu’s brows furrowed immediately, filled with suspicion, trying to recall but finding no one matching this description, his body transformed into a stream of light once more, dashing in the direction pointed out.

As for the remaining tribulation cultivator, seeing Ye Hongyi chasing after Zhou Changwang, he dared not linger at all, quickly fleeing away.

...

"The effect of the God Avoiding Pill is significant.

Even with Ye Yanshu’s formidable tracking ability, it’s nearly impossible for him to detect my presence with the God Avoiding Pill.

His divine sense is utterly ineffective in front of the God Avoiding Pill."

A short time later, Zhou Changwang’s figure appeared atop another mountain, a slight look of relief on his face.

Under the God Avoiding Pill,

not to mention Foundation Establishment cultivators, even Core Formation Realm cultivators would have a hard time detecting his tracks through divine sense exploration.

Much more so, Zhou Changwang had already escaped from under Ye Yanshu’s nose without the God Avoiding Pill once before.

This time, it was naturally even easier.

Then, he altered his appearance once more and openly appeared near the Black Market, atop a mountain.

At this very moment, on this mountain, a somewhat plump figure was quietly waiting in a stone cave.

Zhou Changwang appeared, deliberately masking his voice, so soon after, the figure within the stone cave heard the noise and immediately came out.

It was the Alchemy Master, Wang Tianshuo, with whom Zhou Changwang had previously discussed matters in the Black Market’s secret room.

"Elder Zhou.

You’re here, I’ve completed the task you gave me.

This is the blood contract; please keep it safe!"

Upon seeing Zhou Changwang, Wang Tianshuo showed a hint of delight, quickly saluting respectfully, then handing over a storage bag.

"Good!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Changwang also showed a slight smile and quickly accepted it.

A quick sweep with his divine sense.

He immediately saw in the storage bag a contract lying quietly inside.

Besides the contract, there were as many as hundreds of thousands of Lower-Grade Spirit Stones.

And that blood contract was very familiar to him.

Not only because he had a similar one in his storage bag, but also because he sensed a trace of his own aura within it.

It was the same million-order blood contract he had signed together with Chen Xiao’Er and Feng Xue at the Black Market.

Previously in the Black Market, worried about exposing himself and causing unnecessary associations by Chen Xiao’Er and Feng Xue, which might lead to the failure of this action, he had a quick idea to find another person to help him complete the deal, solving the issue regarding the blood contract he had signed.

After all, the backlash from this blood contract wasn’t a joke.

It could significantly impact the path of the cultivator.

If possible, he naturally wanted to resolve this hidden danger as soon as possible.

Luckily, everything went smoothly.

Though Wang Tianshuo’s alchemy skill wasn’t particularly superb, in terms of interpersonal communication and handling matters, he was indeed quite adept.

He smoothly helped complete this blood contract.

Of course, he didn’t have that many Low-Tier Summoning Talismans on hand naturally.

After all, it hadn’t been long since he initially signed the blood contract.

As he had been dealing with matters around the Five Peaks Mountain Spirit Land and focused entirely on the Flying Blood Corpse Talisman and Yin Dragon Talisman before coming to the Divine Wind Valley Marketplace, the time spent on Mao Jiang Talisman, Evil-faced Ghost Talisman, and Mountain Ghost Exorcism Talisman was naturally relatively less.

But besides Low-Tier Summoning Talismans, he had quite a few summoning talismans of relatively higher grade in his hand.

Demon Elephant Talisman, One-eyed Demon Talisman.

Each not only was of relatively high grade but also much more powerful than ordinary summoning talismans.

In exchange for these spirit talismans, Chen Xiao’Er and Feng Xue had no reason to disagree, readily accepting the original deal and naturally took out the blood contract.

As for the remaining Lower-Grade Spirit Stones besides the blood contract in the storage bag, naturally, they were the remaining balance of the previous order.

Seeing this, Zhou Changwang didn’t hesitate at all, directly taking out the corresponding blood contract and promptly destroying it.

At that moment, a feeling of relief arose in his heart.

The slight worry that had once weighed on his mind also completely dissipated.
