The content of the contract wasn't much, but the meaning was very clear.
If Qin Yi and Lu Yu were willing to accept the content of the contract, they could obtain the right to stay on Cloud Island. In the future, they could even arrange a ship to send them to the Cloud Sea Empire.
Of course, the conditions for such a good thing were extremely harsh.
To obtain these benefits, they had to go to Demon Spirit Island and stay for a month at a set time. They were required to pick a certain number of spirit herbs or the inner cores of extraordinary beings.
Lu Yu had naturally heard many rumors about Demon Spirit Island.
Lu Yu had also mentioned to Qin Yi how harsh the environment was on Demon Spirit Island.
Thus, when the two saw the content of the contract, they didn't make any decision. Their expressions were very solemn.
The sinister old man laughed strangely, "We are all people of the pugilistic world. Whether you accept this contract or not, it is up to you. This is a fair trade. I will never force you. "
Lu Yu cupped his fists, "Senior, can the two of us discuss in private? We will give senior a reply in fifteen minutes. How about it? "
The old man grinned and waved his hand. "This old man will sit over there for a quarter of an hour. I won't wait after that."
Then, the old man waved his hand and left with his subordinates.
Lu Yu moved in front of Qin Yi and asked in a low voice, "Brother Qin, what do you think?"
Qin Yi frowned, "Brother Lu, you are a pill grandmaster. You should be more experienced in picking spirit herbs than me. Do you think it is difficult to pick these spirit herbs? "
Lu Yu thought about it, "To be fair, this number of spirit herbs shouldn't be too exaggerated on Demon Spirit Island. As long as there are no major accidents, we should be able to complete the one month time limit. However, the environment of Demon Spirit Island is very harsh. The rumors are too scary. It is hard to ensure that no accidents occur. "
"That depends on whether Demon Spirit Island has a greater chance of survival in one month or crossing Moon Bend Ocean." Qin Yi was extremely calm.
His view of the contract was much calmer.
Lu Yu thought about it, "To be honest, I have no confidence in crossing Moon Sea. As for the Devil Spirit Island, no matter how dangerous it was rumored to be, wasn't it still a place where the superpowers of the Cloud Sea Empire often chose to train there? This proves that no matter how sinister that place is, there's still a chance of survival. "
Hearing this, Qin Yi's heart skipped a beat. "Trial?"
"That's right. Every once in a while, the overlord forces of Demonic Spirit Island will send batches of young geniuses into Demonic Spirit Island to undergo the Life and Death Trials. Geniuses who had gone through the tempering of this sort of life and death trial would often stand out from the crowd. Therefore, the Devil Spirit Island Trials are a grand event in the Cloud Sea Empire. "
Qin Yi nodded slightly, but a strange expression flashed across his face.
After a while, he asked, "How often is the Life and Death Trials held?"
"That's not necessarily true. Three to five years, ten to twenty years are all possible. Brother Qin, this has nothing to do with us. All we need to think about is how to survive on Devil Spirit Island for a month and gather the spirit herbs we need. To put it bluntly, when it comes to picking spirit herbs, I do have some experience. "
Qin Yi finally understood some things from Lu Yu's words.
The meaning behind Lu Yu's words was that he was tempted by the Life and Death Contract and had the intention of accepting it.
"Brother Qin, what do you think?" Lu Yu couldn't help but ask.
Qin Yi thought for a while and weighed the pros and cons in his heart. He nodded and said, "If it's according to the terms of the contract, I can consider it."
Lu Yu said, "No matter what, it's more reliable than crossing the Crescent Sea, right?"
"But Brother Lu, do you have enough time for the Reclamation Pill?"
"If it's just staying for a month, I should be able to make it in time. Moreover, there are many spirit herbs on Demonic Spirit Island. Maybe I don't have enough materials for the Reclamation Pill and I can gather some on Demonic Spirit Island? If I can use this month to gather the rest of the materials, I can shorten the time. "
Qin Yi finally understood Lu Yu's thoughts and nodded. "Since that's the case, let's go to Demonic Spirit Island."
Lu Yu was overjoyed and revealed a grateful expression. "Brother Qin, it's my fortune to know you."
Lu Yu wasn't a fool. He naturally knew that Qin Yi sacrificed the Condensed Jade Pill and chose to accompany him to Demonic Spirit Island. This was a great favor.
At this time, the old man seemed to see that Lu Yu had made his decision.
"It seems that the two of you have an idea?" The old man walked over.
Lu Yu didn't answer and asked seriously, "Senior, I just want to ask, if we complete the requirements of the contract, can we really stay on Misty Cloud Island for a long time? Can we even get a safe ship to go to Cloud Sea Empire? "
The old man said indifferently, "You don't have to worry about this. The contract has the seal of Cloud Sea Empire, how can it be taken lightly? Instead of worrying about this, why don't you think about whether you can safely survive on Demonic Spirit Island for a month and gather enough spirit herbs? "
The two sides probed each other for a while, and Lu Yu finally signed the life and death contract after some probing.
After signing, the old man chuckled and threw two tokens over. "With these two tokens, you can stay on Misty Cloud Island for as long as you want. However, we will find you at any time. This is because the mission can start at any time. Remember, once the contract is signed, it will take effect immediately. Once the contract takes effect, you can't leave Misty Cloud Island as you please. Otherwise, you will be seen as breaking the contract. You will be hunted by all the major powers in Cloud Sea Empire! "
The old man's words were filled with a strong sense of warning.
The two of them held the tokens in their hands and felt a little dazed. Originally, they didn't have any expectations and were prepared to leave Misty Cloud Island and cross the Crescent Sea.
Who would have thought that there would suddenly be a turn for the better? Inexplicably, they obtained the right to stay on Misty Cloud Island.
The two of them looked at each other and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Lu Yu couldn't help but feel sorry for the Condensed Jade Pill. "Brother Qin, your Condensed Jade Pill is really a waste."
Qin Yi was very open-minded. "Sister Yun Gu is really good to us. It's not a bad thing to use the Condensed Jade Pill as a form of good karma. Brother Lu, why are you still thinking about it? "
Lu Yu chuckled and sighed. "Brother Qin, you're not a pill master, so it's hard for you to understand the special feelings pill masters have towards pills. Even in Cloud Sea Empire, there aren't many people who can refine a pill like the Condensed Jade Pill. How do you expect me to remain calm? "
