Answer or not?
Zhu Que hesitated for a second, then made a decision, pressed the answer button, but did not speak.
"Bonefire, how are you doing?"
Zhan Yunhe's voice came through the phone.
The voice was very calm, even gentle, but for some reason, it gave Zhu Que a strange sense of oppression.
'
Zhu Que remained silent.
On the other end of the phone, Zhan Yunhe seemed to be waiting for a response as well.
Five seconds.
ten seconds.
Twenty seconds.
"Oh----"
Zhan Yunhe chuckled lightly and said calmly, "Good lad, even your Bone Flame was killed? What, did your mysterious master intervene?"
"Why did you kill us?" Zhu Que asked.
"However, according to the secret investigation, you don't seem to have a master, but it seems you really did have a miraculous encounter."
"My extraordinary encounter was with my master," Zhu Que said calmly.
"Yeah?"
Zhan Yunhe chuckled and said, "Now there's something very interesting. The fact that you're alive means that the Bone Fire is dead, but the blood pact shows that it's still alive."
"If we rule out the possibility that he wasn't completely dead, then it means that Bonefire transferred his blood pact before he died."
"So now—are you the one carrying the Bonefire Blood Pact? Or is it your mysterious master, who most likely doesn't even exist?"
'
""
Upon hearing this, Zhu Que's heart sank.
He instantly understood the effect of the Bone Fire Curse Killing Technique, and also the meaning of his last words.
Although he didn't know what a "blood pact" was, he guessed that it was something that could "control life and death."
Bonefire and Zhan Yunhe signed a blood pact, thus Zhan Yunhe could control Bonefire's life and death.
Bonefire used a curse to transfer the blood pact to him, which is equivalent to him signing a blood pact with Zhan Yunhe.
Zhan Yunhe laughed and said, "It's alright, we'll soon find out whether you have a mysterious master or not."
"Beep beep beep," Zhan Yunhe hung up the phone after saying that.
Zhu Que stared at his phone, now with a black screen, and a strong sense of foreboding suddenly welled up inside him.
This feeling came without warning.
It was as if some terrifying force was attacking him from a distant place, crossing space.
"Hmm!"
Zhu Que's pupils dilated, and his heart suddenly pounded.
It was as if an invisible demonic claw, from an unknown distance, was gripping his heart tightly.
He groaned, staggered backward, clutching his chest with one hand, his face turning deathly pale.
He felt as if his heart was about to burst out of his chest, and each beat was accompanied by unbearable pain.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
Even the little ghosts nearby could clearly hear his frantic heartbeat.
This is undoubtedly the power of the "blood pact".
Zhan Yunhe is trying to kill him remotely.
"What's wrong, big brother?"
The little ghosts were terrified.
What to do?
Zhu Que looked pained, his mind racing.
He quickly came up with a solution—
I wonder if the void space inside the Time-Sequence Secret Realm pod can prevent Zhan Yunhe from launching a ranged blood pact attack on him—
He was just about to give it a try.
Suddenly, "Buzz!"
A light shone from Zhu Que's chest, and a strange, inexplicable power surged out, instantly enveloping his body.
At that moment, the excruciating pain in his heart gradually subsided, and in less than half a minute, he had returned to normal.
"This is----"
Zhu Que looked puzzled. He tore open his clothes and found that the "Guardian Nightmare Jade - Strange" was glowing.
"So this is what 'destiny' means."
He finally understood the mutated nature of this extraordinary artifact—
To take on a life-threatening ordeal for the user.
He had been puzzled about what "fate tribulation" was, but he never expected that "the blood pact's ranged killing" also belonged to fate tribulation.
"Phew! I escaped that disaster—"
Zhu Que breathed a heavy sigh of relief, secretly rejoicing.
Looking back now, it seems that my decision to keep imitating magical artifacts to gamble on the probability of mutation was incredibly wise.
"Big brother, are you alright?"
A group of little ghosts surrounded him, looking at him with concern.
"Don't worry, big brother is very strong, he won't die so easily."
Zhu Que gently comforted them.
He lowered his head slightly, looking at the protective Xuanjue Yi on his chest.
now.
The magical artifact underwent a strange transformation.
The Xuanwei emitted a faint light, but its surface was covered with blood-red patterns, as if two forces were fighting each other.
The blood-red pattern was trying to destroy Xuanjue.
Xuanjue stubbornly resisted the damage.
"Damn it, although Xuanjue took the blood pact's killing blow for me, this power seems to be continuous—"
Zhu Que frowned slightly.
However, he didn't know much about blood pacts; these things were completely beyond his comprehension.
At that moment, he suddenly thought of Sun Zheng and hurriedly ran into the biology lab.
now.
Sun Zheng was standing in front of an instrument, intently fiddling with something.
"Are you alright? Has the problem outside been resolved?"
Seeing Zhu Que enter, Sun Zheng turned his head and glanced at him, asking a question.
The fighting outside was very loud, but he remembered Zhu Que's words and did not rush out to become a burden.
"Everything's alright for now."
Zhu Que asked, "Brother Sun, do you know about blood pacts?"
"A blood pact?"
"Someone just transferred his blood pact to me."
"This thing can be transferred?" Sun Zheng was stunned.
"It seems that some extremely costly curse technique was used."
"No wonder, what's going on now?"
"Someone just tried to kill me remotely using a blood pact, but it was blocked by my protective artifact."
Zhu Que frowned and said, "However, this blood pact killing seems to be continuous. Take a look at this spiritual weapon."
He showed Sun Zheng the Guardian of the Mysterious Jade.
"That's right, this Blood Pact Slaughter is continuous. This magical artifact is too powerful; it can even withstand the Blood Pact Slaughter."
Sun Zheng looked on in astonishment.
Zhu Que asked a crucial question: "Can it keep helping me bear it?"
"no."
Sun Zheng shook his head. "As far as I know, the killing effect of the blood pact will continue until the victim dies."
"It's like—there's an invisible rope, one end held in the caster's hand, and the other end around your neck."
"This magical artifact withstood the blood pact's attack and temporarily held the rope in place, but it ultimately has its limits."
"Maybe three days, maybe five days, maybe a week."
"No matter how long it lasts, once the power of the magical artifact is exhausted, you will eventually be killed by the caster."
'
""
Zhu Que frowned and asked, "Is there any way to break this blood pact?"
Sun Zheng said, "Theoretically, there are two ways to break the blood pact."
"The first method is to find a cultivator who is more powerful than the caster and use their power to forcibly sever the blood pact connection."
"But the requirements are very high—the cultivator needs to be at least three major realms higher in cultivation than the caster."
"If he is at the Foundation Establishment stage, we need to find a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, but as far as I know, there are no Nascent Soul stage cultivators in the entire Guangyang City."
"What about the second one?"
"The second method is to kill the caster himself. Once the blood pact loses its target, it can be broken."
"Kill the caster—"
Zhu Que was stunned.
The image of Zhan Yunhe flashed into his mind, and a gloomy feeling immediately settled over his heart.
What a joke.
You want me to kill Zhan Yunhe?
Given the Black Lotus Guild's influence in Jinfeng Town, this is no less difficult than finding a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.
Just then.
"Sizzle sizzle"
Suddenly, a piercing sound came from the instrument in front of Sun Zheng, and the screen began to scroll with a dense stream of data.
"We did it!"
""
Sun Zheng's eyes lit up instantly.
