Wuhun: Desert Death on the left hand, the world on the right hand

Arriving at the ruins of the Spiritual Pagoda in a dusty state, Zhu Weng felt mixed emotions. The former glory was gone among the broken walls, and only Sang Lao's lonely figure was holding on to the last dignity.

When we found Mr. Sang, he was resting his mind with his eyes closed in front of a broken stone tablet. Time had carved many wrinkles on his face, but it could not cover up the deep light in his eyes.

"Old Sangtou, how are you?" Zhu Weng broke the silence, his tone full of emotion.

Old Sang slowly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his cloudy eyes: "You old bamboo man, why don't you enjoy your life in the bamboo forest and come to my shabby place?"

"Isn't this a happy event that I want to talk to you about?" Zhu Weng said, and then repeated Baiyun's words.

After listening to this, Mr. Sang remained silent for a long time, as if lost in memories. After a while, he sighed and said, "I didn't expect that there is still someone in the world who can say such words..."

"That's right!" Zhu Weng's tone was full of pride, "So I came here this time to seek the secret method of soul contract, and let Yun'er study his soul contract method."

Elder Sang pondered for a moment and said slowly: "The secret method of soul contract is the secret of my Soul Transmission Tower..."

He paused, then changed the subject: "However, since your disciple has such talent, I am willing to make an exception. However, I need to meet this young man first. If he truly has great righteousness in mind, I will teach him the secret method."

"Of course!" Zhu Weng stroked his beard and smiled, but he was secretly alert in his heart, "Old Sang, let me make it clear first, my apprentice can be let you watch, but you can't be jealous of his talent and try to steal my apprentice!"

"Old Zhu, who do you think I am?" Old Sang's face darkened, and he blew his beard and glared, "I have lived an upright life, how could I do such a thing of robbery?"

Zhu Weng smiled awkwardly and said, "I have judged you by my own standards. Please don't blame me, Old Sangtou."

"Forget it, forget it. You and I have known each other for many years. Don't I know you well?" Elder Sang waved his hand and changed the subject. "Go back and bring your disciple here. I want to see what kind of young man is able to say such shocking words!"

"Old Sang, there's no point in you guarding this broken place here, why don't you come back with me!"

Elder Sang hesitated for a moment and said slowly, "Well, I'll go with you to meet your disciple."

Zhu Weng was overjoyed when he heard this, and the two of them hurried back to the bamboo forest.

"Yun'er!" Zhu Weng's voice came before he arrived.

Bai Yun stopped practicing upon hearing the voice. Seeing Zhu Weng coming back with a happy face, he couldn't help but feel moved: "Master, you are back? Have you finished your work?"

"It's settled, it's settled!" Zhu Weng rubbed his hands excitedly, "Come on, let's go meet someone!"

Baiyun was curious and followed Zhu Weng to the bamboo forest.

"Old Sang, my apprentice is here!" Zhu Weng said loudly.

Old Sang slowly opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his cloudy eyes, and he looked up and down at Bai Yun. Bai Yun also looked at the last keeper of the Spirit Pagoda curiously.

He was short, hunched over, and his face was covered with wrinkles, as if he would fall down if the wind blew. However, Bai Yun felt a strong aura from him, which was even stronger than his master!

"Are you Baiyun?" Mr. Sang's voice was a little hoarse, but full of energy.

"My name is Baiyun, nice to meet you, senior." Baiyun replied respectfully.

"Are you really planning to study the secret method of soul contract for the harmonious coexistence of humans and soul beasts?" asked Old Sang in a deep voice.

"Absolutely true." Bai Yun answered without hesitation.

Mr. Sang was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Okay, I believe you."

As he spoke, he took out an ancient ring from his bosom, handed it to Bai Yun, and said: "This ring contains the secret method of the soul contract of my Soul Transmission Tower. I hope you will not disappoint me."

Bai Yun took the ring with both hands and said solemnly: "I will definitely live up to your trust!"

"If I find out that you have deceived me and used the secret method of soul contract to enslave soul beasts..." Elder Sang said in a grim tone, and an invisible pressure enveloped Bai Yun, "I will kill you! Even your master can't save you!"

"If you are worried, you can stay and witness it." Bai Yun said neither humbly nor arrogantly despite the pressure.

Old Sang looked at Bai Yun deeply. The young man's eyes were clear and firm, and did not seem fake.

He sighed in his heart, perhaps this was really God's will. Passing down the secret method of soul contract might really change the future of Douluo Continent.

He nodded and said, "Okay, I will trust you this time. This bamboo forest is quiet and elegant, so I will stay here and give you some pointers."

Zhu Weng was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Baiyun, why don't you go and clean up a bamboo house?"

Bai Yun was extremely excited when he got the Soul Contract Secret Method. He couldn't wait to start studying it, but he suppressed the urge in his heart and said respectfully to Elder Sang: "Senior, please take a rest first. I will go and prepare a bamboo house for you."

Night falls and the stars are shining.

Bai Yun returned to the room and couldn't wait to open the ancient ring. Strong spiritual fluctuations emanated from the ring, and Bai Yun felt that a large amount of information suddenly flooded into his mind, which was the secret method of soul contract!

Bai Yun suppressed the pain in his head and read it carefully.

"So that's how it is. The soul contract actually connects the spiritual power of the soul master and the soul beast in this way..."

Bai Yun conducted research and practiced in the Bai Yun Realm, trying to construct a model of the soul contract.

"Nasus, come here!" Bai Yun called Nasus, who was meditating, to his side.

"What's wrong, Brother Yun?" Nasus looked at Bai Yun in confusion.

"I have a secret method here and I need your help." Bai Yun briefly explained the core content of the soul contract secret method to Nasus.

After hearing this, Nasus’ huge eyes flashed with enlightenment: “So that’s how it is. This soul contract is somewhat similar to the inheritance of the death godhead.”

"Can you understand it?" Bai Yun was a little surprised. The secret of soul contract was profound and extensive. He had studied it for a long time but only had a vague understanding of it. He didn't expect that Nasus would get a clue after just listening to it once.

“A little bit, a little bit,” Nasus said modestly. “Although this soul contract is ingenious, in my opinion, it is just the tip of the iceberg.”

Bai Yun immediately became interested and quickly pulled Nasus to study it together.

The two were so absorbed in the study of soul contracts that they soon forgot about time.

Although Nasus's comprehension is not as good as Baiyun's, he is an ascender who has lived for thousands of years after all. Things like soul contracts are easy for him to understand.

Nasus closed his eyes and radiated a huge amount of mental power, forming visible ripples in the white cloud world.

"So that's how it is. The key to this soul contract is to build a stable spiritual connection..."

While Nasus was gaining insights, he transmitted his thoughts to Baiyun.

Bai Yun suddenly felt enlightened. The problems that had been bothering him were now solved.

"I understand!" Bai Yun said excitedly, "Soul contract, the power of the contract is not the key, the key is to build a stable spiritual connection!"

Inspiration continued to emerge in Bai Yun's mind, and he quickly perfected the concept of the soul contract and improved it into a new soul contract secret method.

Bai Yun took a deep breath, tried hard to suppress the trembling in his voice, and said to Nasus: "Nasus, I... I seem to have found the direction to construct a new soul contract secret method!"

Nasus lazily lay on the ground without even opening his eyelids, and said nonchalantly: “Oh? So what direction did you find? Tell me about it.”

Bai Yun's voice was full of excitement: "I plan to build a new contract model, I call it...'Soul Contract Secret Method'!"

“Soul Binding Technique?” Nasus finally opened his eyes and leaned his huge head closer. “That name is quite interesting. Can you tell me more about it?”

Bai Yun took a deep breath, organized his words, and said slowly: "First of all, we need an independent contract space, which can be the spiritual sea, or the elixir field, or even... we can even refine the space soul guide and transform it into a contract space!"

“Well, that’s interesting. This way, the contracted beast won’t have to be locked in the taming ball.” Nasus nodded in approval.

"Secondly, the signing of a contract must be based on the voluntary participation of both parties. Any resistance from either party will lead to the failure of the contract or even backlash!" Bai Yun's voice became more and more firm.

"It's natural. If you force it, problems will arise sooner or later." Nasus grinned, revealing his white teeth.

Bai Yun paused, and then said: "Finally, the contracted beast can enter the contracted space to live in its original form. Moreover, the strength of the contracted beast will feed back to the contracted soul master, and the two will grow together!"

“Oh? Grow together?” Nasus’ eyes lit up. “In other words, if the soul bond master is strong, the contracted beast will also be strong, and vice versa?”

"That's right!" Bai Yun's eyes sparkled with excitement, and he snapped his slender fingers lightly, making a crisp sound. "I already have a preliminary idea, and now I need to enter the Secret Realm of Time, and with the help of the rich spiritual energy and time laws in the Secret Realm, I will deduce it carefully and try to perfect it as soon as possible!"

After saying this, Bai Yun was about to step into the Secret Realm of Time. Seeing this, Nasus quickly reached out and held him back, saying anxiously, "Brother Yun! Wait, don't rush in!"

Bai Yun was confused by his sudden action and asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

Nasus took a deep breath and explained, "Brother Yun, this is it. I have improved all the secrets of the soul contract! Now the only thing left is the last step, which is what you mentioned before - the contract space!"

He paused, and said indifferently: "Brother Yun, with your talent, it is only a matter of time for you to study the secret method of opening up the contract space. Ten years, at most ten years! But the problem is..."

Nasus paused here deliberately, and seeing Bai Yun's curious expression, he continued, "Have you ever thought about how many people can successfully practice this secret method of opening up a contract space? Can one person out of a hundred thousand people have a natural affinity for space and successfully open up a contract space? I think it's unlikely!"

"Indeed, the development of the contract space is almost impossible without sufficient spatial talent..." Bai Yun couldn't help but frowned, and it was obvious that he also realized the seriousness of the problem.

“So, regarding the contract space, I think we can change our thinking!” Nasus said, bending down to pick up a crystal stone emitting a faint spatial fluctuation from the ground. “Brother Yun, have you forgotten your martial spirit, the White Cloud Realm? You are the master of the world!”

He looked at Bai Yun, who was the Lord of the World but had no airs at all, and was filled with emotion: "In our Bai Yun Realm, because of the spatial godhood, the spatial laws are extremely rich, and there are countless spatial crystals like this!"

"Can't these space crystals only be used as storage soul guides? Can they have other uses?" Bai Yun curiously played with the space crystals handed over by Nasus, his eyes full of confusion.

“This is indeed an ordinary space crystal, but you are already the master of the White Cloud Realm. With the power of the higher world, after a little modification, it can be used as a contract space.” Nasus explained slowly.
