I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

”It’s a bit of a pity that after crossing into this world, it seems I don’t have the fate of being a protagonist, nor any special abilities; I can only work hard to survive and find a way to live in the cracks.”

Feng Xiaozao’s words left Han Zhan speechless.

Upon reflection, indeed, this soul that has crossed over has been living very pragmatically, a character trait that is hard not to like.

Watching the increasingly weakened Feng Xiaozao, Han Zhan spoke again:

”Perhaps, there’s one more way to keep you from complete annihilation and continue living in this world.”

”What way?”

Han Zhan raised his hand, summoning the floating Kongtong Seal in mid-air.

The Kongtong Seal in his hand emitted a faint cyan glow, reflecting in Feng Xiaozao’s eyes.

”Let your soul fuse with the Kongtong Seal, and then, using it as the core, pilot this divine body left by the God of Pure Beauty.”

The God of Pure Beauty is utterly dead.

This point is beyond dispute.

Even the consciousness lingering in the divine body has been completely devoured.

Now, this divine body is like a mecha with the strength of a Divine Realm; all it needs is a fully compatible driver.

With the Longevity Dao, life’s authority forges the cornerstone of the pathway.

Who could be more fitting for such a divine body than the Kongtong Seal?

But ultimately, the Kongtong Seal is just a Divine Soldier, lacking a soul vessel, unable to complete the final step.

And as the reincarnation of the God of Pure Beauty, Feng Xiaozao’s compatibility with the Kongtong Seal is almost one hundred percent.

Now, she only needs to nod her head to fully complete this last step.

”What will I have to pay?” Feng Xiaozao asked pragmatically without immediately agreeing.

Han Zhan didn’t hide from her either, ”After fusing with the Kongtong Seal, you’ll need to enter into a contract with me.”

”Of course, it’s not an unequal master-servant contract or a slave contract; it’s just a Spirit Contract common on our planet.”

”After completing this contract, you’ll become my ’wife’, ’partner’, you’ll have to...”

”I’m willing!”

What a good deal! Feng Xiaozao suddenly shed her previous weakness and declared firmly.

Han Zhan: ”...”

”I must tell you, I’m not the only partner under contract with me; you’re not the only one.”

”I understand,” Feng Xiaozao nodded seriously, ”But I want to live. I don’t want to die yet.”

”Eighteen years of living cautiously and diligently here, I haven’t experienced a different kind of life yet.”

”Having crossed over once, how can I miss this opportunity?”

Han Zhan nodded slightly, ”Besides that, there’s one more point I need to remind you of.”

”You are a soul that crossed over, inhabiting the reincarnated Feng Xiaozao, an ordinary person.”

”You lack a realm, and even if you merge with the Kongtong Seal, you won’t be able to truly control the divine body until you break through to the Divine Realm.”

So, even if possessing a divine body, I’ll still have to live like an ordinary person for now... Feng Xiaozao understood and nodded, ”I see. After merging with the Kongtong Seal, I’ll definitely work hard to train.”

Strive for cultivation, break through realms until reaching the Divine Realm, to completely control the divine body once more.

Before that, the divine body can only offer defense comparable to that of a deity without being able to wield divine-level skills.

”Explaining things to smart people is easy.” Han Zhan smiled, ”Then, let’s begin.”

As his voice fell, the Kongtong Seal in his hand once again transformed into a faint cyan stream of light, entering the divine body.

The soul of Feng Xiaozao, on the brink of annihilation, suddenly felt a coolness, the comforting wrap making her involuntarily moan.

Feng Xiaozao’s soul gradually fused with the Kongtong Seal, ultimately becoming a new Contracted Spirit form.

In this form, she then merged a second time with the divine body.

This time, the merging process went very smoothly.

After a while, Feng Xiaozao, now with a divine body, opened her eyes.

”So, this is the world perceived through divine senses?”

”It’s really... magical,” Feng Xiaozao marveled.

”Congratulations on surviving,” Han Zhan, feeling quite good, congratulated her.

”Let’s carry out the final contract,” Feng Xiaozao took the initiative to say at this time.

Han Zhan, without hesitation, as one of the Ancient Divine Soldiers, the Kongtong Seal, had no reason to refuse the contract.

So once again, his eyes glowed with dazzling golden light, the Divine Light Talent awakened once more.

Under Han Zhan’s gaze, Feng Xiaozao seemed to be completely seen inside and out, making her blush.

The Kongtong Seal manifested behind her, and a Spirit Contract Array appeared beneath their feet.

As the Spirit Contract Array completed its outline, it transformed into two streams of light that merged into Han Zhan and Feng Xiaozao’s bodies.

In this moment, they gained a mysterious connection.

When Han Zhan looked at Feng Xiaozao, he also saw the information representing her as a Divine Soldier:

[Feng Xiaozao, SSS Level Contracted Spirit.]

[Illusion Form, Ancient Divine Soldier - Kongtong Seal.]

[Divinity, Divine Seal of Origin.]

Divine Seal of Origin is the innate trait of the Ancient Divine Soldier Kongtong Seal.

Its ability, as witnessed in the previous battle with the God of Pure Beauty, is to absorb the lifespan of all things, much like a curse.

Once lifespan is exhausted, aside from a few methods, it becomes difficult for opponents to escape the effects of aging.

Additionally, the Divine Seal of Origin can grant the absorbed lifespan to others, achieving longevity and eternal youth.

The Longevity Dao, eternal life, indeed should not be a goal to pursue, but if used as an auxiliary, it can have extraordinary effects in battle.

Imagine.

If an opponent with roughly the same strength as Han Zhan had to face the following debuffs during battle.

First, Innate Overpowering, with All Attributes reduced by twenty percent forcefully.

Then Sealing Heaven and Earth, with countless seals and curses, even if not dead, they would shed a layer of skin.

Lastly, Divine Seal of Origin, a handful of methods that target lifespan are rare in the entire cosmos; otherwise, Pure Beauty Paradise wouldn’t be such a sought-after place. Lifespan stripping, aging descending.

Under these three layers of debuffs, the opponent may be incapacitated before Han Zhan even acts.

After completing the contract with the Ancient Divine Soldier Kongtong Seal, Han Zhan’s strength saw another leap in progress.

At this time, Shang Jianyue and Luo Qiuhong have also done everything they could, rescuing the surviving Pure Beauty Star survivors.

Next, they only need to wait to witness the final moment of Pure Beauty Star approaching its end, and then wait for the Teleportation Gate to reappear.

”Strange,” Han Zhan said puzzled as he looked out the window through the starship’s bridge port after entering the Starship.

”Why hasn’t Dawn Number Two taken action?”
