Within the Bank of the Universe, Li Xiandao sat in the main hall and communicated with Seven.
Dealing with the enemies from Ancient Desolate Land was just a piece of cake to Li Xiandao and he didn't need to worry about it.
There was no one in Ancient Desolate Land that could make him worry, so he could deal with the debts here.
"Seven, how many contracts are there in Ancient Desolate Land?" Li Xiandao asked.
Li Xiandao passed the contracts to Seven. He didn't need to suspect people when he used them. Seven was capable, so he took on more responsibilities. Anyway, she couldn't leave the Bank of the Universe.
Seven said, "Ancient Desolate Land contracts are still valid, 150 of them!"
"Just so little?" Li Xiandao was shocked.
"Many of the hosts died after signing the contracts, so naturally, the contracts became invalid." Seven said helplessly.
The Bank of the Universe had disappeared for 10,000 years. How many people had died in those 10,000 years?
Those hosts either died in battle or died of old age. Those who could last for 10,000 years were all experts.
Li Xiandao frowned, "Doesn't that mean that many contracts will be invalid in the future?"
Seven smiled, "That is not the case. Dali Land and Ancient Desolate Land are the two weakest places in the Ten Lands. The highest cultivation is just at Countless Sands Realm. Such a place is like a small pond and can't raise a big fish. Occasionally one will appear and it will occupy half of the pond. The other fish won't be able to survive there!"
Li Xiandao was deep in thought, "We are frying fish in a small pond, right?"
"You can understand it that way. Master, once we clear the debts in Ancient Desolate Land, we can head to a bigger world." Seven said.
Li Xiandao nodded, "In the Ten Lands, Ancient Desolate Land and Dali Land are small ponds, so what about the other places?"
Seven explained to Li Xiandao, "The Ten Lands are Dali Land, Ancient Desolate Land, Cloud Mist Land, Ancient Buddha Land, Great Demon Land, Ten Thousand Beast Land, Kunlun Land, Red Earth Land, Eternal Land, and Undead Spirit Land."
"Dali Land and Ancient Desolate Land are ranked towards the back. They have the least resources and few experts. Ancient Desolate Land is slightly better and has a few Countless Sands Realm experts. Dali Land is really pitiful and only has a few Saints."
"The other eight regions are much more evenly distributed. They surround the Nine Skies and absorb the energy above to expand the world source. This is why cultivation in the other eight regions is really prosperous!" Seven said.
Li Xiandao listened quietly.
Now that he was invincible in Ancient Desolate Land, he started to think about when to enter a higher world. Seven reminded him.
Ancient Desolate Land and Dali Land were the starting targets. They were suitable for Li Xiandao's initial development, but later on, they weren't suitable anymore.
"Once the debt is solved, we will let Long Mixu control Ancient Desolate Land and then we will leave this place." Li Xiandao set the tone.
No matter what, he had to let Long Mixu control the Ten Thousand Dragon Empire and turn Ancient Desolate Land into his own territory.
Anyway, people from other worlds didn't care much about Dali Land and Ancient Desolate Land.
Experts looked down on the Ancient Desolate Land as it was a waste of time. Those who were weak couldn't come, and even if they did, it would be useless.
This was also the reason why Dali Land and Ancient Desolate Land were neither too high nor too low.
…
"Out of the 150 contracts, how many of them are problematic or difficult?" Li Xiandao asked.
Seven took out a contract and passed it to Li Xiandao, "Out of the 150 contracts, only this one is a little problematic. Heaven Heart and the others can't solve it."
Li Xiandao's brow rose up and he was shocked. Heaven Heart was already at stage two of the Countless Sands Realm, so how could he not solve it?
Apart from that old priest in Ancient Desolate Land, was there anyone else who could beat Heaven Heart?
He opened the contract and Li Xiandao realized that there was really no one in Ancient Desolate Land who could beat Heaven Heart.
The problem with this contract was that it wasn't a human!
It was a turtle in the ocean!
The contract was written really clearly, "Great Ocean Saint Turtle borrowed a Xuanwu Neidan from the Bank of the Universe and will repay it 10,000 years later. The price to pay is 10,000 years of lifespan!"
"Breaking the contract, 100,000 years of lifespan!"
Li Xiandao looked at the contract and said, "Did he break the contract?"
Seven nodded, "He did. A month ago, the 10,000 years were up."
Li Xiandao smiled, "That is 100,000 years of lifespan, that is a huge win."
"Right, which is why I said that this is a problematic contract. Great Ocean Saint Turtle is old and has been hiding in the ocean. He also obtained the Xuanwu God Beast's neidan and has been cultivating. Heaven Heart can't solve it." Seven added.
"I will go personally!" Li Xiandao smiled confidently.
"I hope that this Great Ocean Saint Turtle can make me go all out." Li Xiandao muttered.
Seven smiled and then made a heart sign with her hands. She blinked, "Good luck Master."
Li Xiandao was shocked and looked at Seven in shock. He didn't expect that the quiet and dignified Seven would suddenly be so playful.
"You don't like it?" Seven looked at Li Xiandao's shocked expression. Her expression calmed down and she muttered.
"I won't do it in the future." Seven turned around and left.
"No … I like it a lot. I can do more in the future." Li Xiandao said firmly.
Seven stumbled and said angrily, "I won't do it anymore."
"I will do this contract but you can let Heaven Heart, Lucifer, and Usuna deal with the others." Li Xiandao instructed.
Seven left without turning her head and didn't reply to Li Xiandao.
Li Xiandao didn't see that she was a little shy because of that sentence.
….
Outside the walls, along with the defeat of the army, the old priest was the first to escape. He lost an arm and didn't walk far. He found a mountain peak and started to heal up.
He sat in the middle of the trees and took in deep breaths. Two streaks of green light shot out from his nose and absorbed the essence of the sun and moon as well as the spiritual energy of the plants.
All the trees and flowers on the mountain were providing energy to the old priest.
The old priest's broken arm was growing. His flesh was wriggling and his bones were spreading. Very quickly, an arm would grow out.
After a day and night, the old priest heaved a sigh of relief and stopped cultivating.
Around him, many of the plants withered and their essence was sucked dry.
When the old priest saw these scenes, his eyelids twitched and he felt really guilty.
"I took your lives because of my own injuries. I really shouldn't have done that." The old priest muttered. He thought about it and took out all the God Source on him. He crushed them and scattered them on the ground. After the plants absorbed them, they started to recover.
When the old priest saw this, he nodded his head in satisfaction, "Everyone is happy. You helped me recover my arm and I helped you nourish your body. We are both taking what we need. What a beautiful ending."
"It was really dangerous this time. Luckily, I cultivated the Constant Youth Celestial Technique. This technique allowed me to recover my arm without any medicine. This is a top technique. People are stupid and don't know the benefits of it. Even though it is there, no one cultivates it." The old priest was delighted.
