Chapter 1268: Blood Curse Document and Spirit Tool

~11 min read 2,032 words

A blue-gray light pillar as thick as a bowl shot out from the center of the disk and shone on Han Li. Net

Han Li's expression was calm, letting the light flash on his body.

While he didn't have the ability to dodge now, on the other hand, he saw at a glance that this spiritual light was not offensive, but just used for detection.

The light converged, and the light pillar disappeared, but the disk itself shone brightly.

The young man looked down at the disk, but suddenly shouted at the people behind him in shock.

The knights behind heard the exclamation and also stirred.

Then, the scarred man asked the young man a few questions loudly, and after hearing the answer, he looked at Han Li on the ground and was also quite surprised. Then he drove the giant wolf under him and walked over, standing beside the young man.

He asked Han Li a few questions, but Han Li naturally rolled his eyes and couldn't understand a word.

The middle-aged man touched his chin, and his tone changed, seemingly switching to another language.

As soon as this language entered his ears, Han Li's expression couldn't help but move. Although he still couldn't understand it, it sounded familiar, seemingly similar to some ancient language of the mortal world.

The scarred man saw Han Li's expression and hurriedly spoke a few more sentences in this language, but Han Li shook his head with difficulty.

The man had a headache. He hung his weapon on the giant wolf, then took out a pale yellow wooden box from his bosom and opened the lid.

Inside was a milky yellow round bead, the size of a thumb, flashing with faint spiritual light.

The middle-aged man showed a look of pain, but after looking down at Han Li and then at the bead, and hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth and took the round bead in his hand. With a flip of his other wrist, he revealed a uniquely styled ring, with several runes engraved on the surface, and a small emerald crystal embedded in the back.

The man pressed the round bead onto the crystal, and suddenly the light shone brightly, and the round bead was dazzling.

And the man threw the round bead at Han Li without hesitation. As soon as this object touched Han Li's body, it entered it like a spirit, disappearing without a trace.

Han Li was slightly startled, and immediately felt a chill from the bead enter his body, rushing straight to his brain, and his heart tightened.

If his magic power were still present, he would naturally have been able to expel this thing from his body with a single thought. But now that his magic power was gone and his body couldn't move, he could only stare helplessly and was powerless.

Fortunately, these people didn't seem to have any malice, so Han Li didn't show a panicked expression.

That chill circled in his brain and then disappeared. But his head felt a sudden sharp pain, and then a large number of things appeared in his spiritual sense, desperately pouring into his brain.

Although Han Li's spiritual sense couldn't be released outside his body, the strength of his spiritual sense itself was genuine.

His expression only changed slightly, and his spiritual sense immediately absorbed these things, instantly mastering a strange language. It was exactly the one he had heard from the man earlier.

The scarred man saw that Han Li was still acting as if nothing had happened after absorbing the round bead, and was surprised again, but then asked in a low voice:

"Now you can understand what I'm saying. Who are you, and why are you here? This is the depths of the Qingluo Desert; ordinary people wouldn't appear here at all."

"Qingluo Desert? Never heard of it. To tell you the truth, I arrived here by accident. The way I arrived was a bit special, and I have no idea where this place is. As for my identity, I am just an ordinary person, nothing to talk about. You can call me Han Li," Han Li said with a bitter smile.

"Special way? You also came through a spatial rift. Don't be surprised, this area is prone to frequent spatial rifts, and strangers are often rolled here from millions of miles away," the man said, taking it for granted without any surprise.

Han Li was speechless after hearing this. The bellyful of prepared words seemed unnecessary to say.

"Hehe! Looking at you, you don't seem like an ordinary person, but as long as you aren't a strange creature in disguise, your background doesn't matter. However, your current situation isn't very good. If no one saves you, in a few days it will be the Scorpion Tide period of the Qingluo Desert. By then, no matter how capable you are, you will be dead. How about it, are you willing to sign an agreement with our Tiandong Trading Firm? We can take you away, but as a price, you must serve our trading firm for ten years. After twenty years, you can leave," the man

The scar on his face twitched, and a ferocious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Ten years! No problem, I agree," Han Li's eyes flashed, and after only a slight hesitation, he agreed immediately.

"Good, since you agree, write a blood curse," the man laughed, and beckoned to a knight behind him.

Another knight behind took out a stack of thick paper from his body, randomly pulled out one, bit his finger to write something on it, and jumped off the giant wolf at the man's signal, walking to the front.

He unfolded the paper in front of Han Li for him to see.

Han Li frowned, looking at the paper, but didn't speak for a long time.

"What, you haven't even seen a blood curse document?" The man was stunned, remembered something, and looked at Han Li with suspicion.

"No, this is indeed the first time I've seen this. Can you tell me what this thing does?" Han Li stared at the thing covered in runes and replied honestly.

This wasn't a piece of paper at all, but clearly a talisman.

He recognized the runes on the talisman; they were a very ancient type of rune from the mortal world. But this combination and arrangement was the first time he had seen it, and a faint smell of blood permeated from it, appearing a bit strange.

"You haven't even seen a blood curse document? Could it be that you came from the east? Forget it, I'll explain it to you. This thing is very simple. As long as you read what's written on it and find no problems, and then willingly drip a drop of essence blood on it, the contract will naturally take effect. If one party goes back on their word, the power of the blood curse will immediately take away part of your essence soul, making life worse than death. Hehe, this is something uniquely produced by the Blood Curse Sect. Unless you truly have the ability of an Earth Immortal, you must be subject to this restriction," the man didn't show impatience and explained a few sentences casually.

Han Li showed a thoughtful expression!

During this time, although he didn't fully understand what this blood curse was, he saw the depth of the runes on it clearly.

This talisman wasn't very complicated! Although he couldn't immediately decipher it, with his attainments in talismans, as long as he spent more time, he would definitely be able to solve this thing. And judging by the complexity of the runes, this type of talisman could likely only restrict cultivators around the Foundation Establishment stage; it couldn't restrict anyone above the Core Formation stage at all.

Even if he had no magic power in his body, the vast essence transformed by his Nascent Soul had already been injected into his physical body, so he wouldn't care about this blood curse at all.

It was likely that once this curse-like restriction entered his body, it would be dissolved by itself.

Speaking of which, this thing was similar to the evil artifact "Page of the Underworld River" taken out by the old man surnamed Fu of the Nine Nether Sect in the mortal world. But the two naturally couldn't be mentioned in the same breath.

The Page of the Underworld River could restrict even Nascent Soul cultivators to a certain extent, while this blood curse document was mostly used between mortals. And judging by the man's tone, it seemed to be a commonly used thing in this area.

Han Li's thoughts turned rapidly, and his gaze had already finished reading the few lines of text newly written on the document. It was indeed that after saving him, he had to serve the other party for twenty years.

"Can, no problem. But I can't move now, so could it be later..." Han Li agreed, but a reluctant expression appeared on his face, as if he wanted to find an excuse.

The scarred man sneered and raised his chin at the knight holding the blood curse document:

"Little Seven, help him."

The knight named "Little Seven" immediately placed the paper in front of Han Li's chest, grabbed one of Han Li's wrists, and with his other hand, a cold light flashed, and a sharp dagger several inches long appeared between his fingers, and he slashed at his wrist without ceremony.

A "clang" sound of metal friction came. Not only did Han Li's wrist not bleed, but there wasn't even a white mark where the dagger had slashed.

At this, everyone, including the man, was greatly shocked. The knight was even more stunned, holding the dagger.

"What technique are you cultivating? Is it the Profound Armor Art or the Vajra Art? Have you cultivated to the second layer?" The scarred man recovered and asked with a solemn expression.

"Is it the Vajra Art? Third layer!" Upon hearing the other party ask this, Han Li was silent for a while before answering slowly, but he was actually ecstatic in his heart.

Now he could finally be sure that this was indeed the Spirit World mentioned by the Tian Lan Beast's clone. Otherwise, how could the name of a technique like the Vajra Art appear in the mouth of a mortal?

"Third layer of the Vajra Art. You can already directly confront low-tier demon beasts. It seems I have picked up a treasure. No wonder Little Seven's mortal weapon couldn't hurt you at all. Use this 'Golden Lustrous Sword'. Although it is only a low-tier spirit tool, as long as you don't deliberately use your technique to resist, it can still leave a cut," the scarred man first let out a light sigh, his expression returning to normal, then raised his hand and threw a short sword with a scabbard directly over.

"Spirit tool?" Han Li's heart moved when he heard this strange name.

And "Little Seven" grabbed the sword and pulled it out of the scabbard with a "swish", and a group of golden light instantly shot out in all directions. Han Li narrowed his eyes and looked, feeling very strange.

This so-called "spirit tool" looked no different from an ordinary magic tool at first glance. Could it be that mortals in the Spirit World could also drive magic tools?

However, Han Li's gaze scanned carefully again, and finally discovered the only difference, which was that there was a groove on the hilt of the small sword, and a glowing golden spirit stone was embedded in it. This spirit stone was not low-tier, actually a mid-tier metal-attribute spirit stone, but its volume was only one-fifth the size of a mortal world spirit stone.

He was wondering in his heart when "Little Seven" took out a beast-skin glove from his body, put it on one hand, and then grabbed the short sword with the gloved hand.

Runes flashed on the surface of this beast-skin glove, and it was also embedded with several bean-sized spirit stones of different colors.
