Chapter 138 - Legacy Hall
Chapter 138: Legacy Hall
The Great Ocean Saint Turtle’s shell cracked and the soul hiding within was revealed. Li Xiandao got close and he pressed onto it with his finger.
“Now, do you remember the Bank of the Universe and the Xuanwu Neidan?” Li Xiandao asked coldly.
The Great Ocean Saint Turtle was terrified, his body was unable to move at all. With his shell broken, he was just like a beautiful teen standing naked in front of Li Xiandao.
Totally naked!
“I remember, I remember!” The Great Ocean Saint Turtle replied eagerly. He didn’t dare to hide anything or behave arrogantly.
He didn’t expect Li Xiandao to be so terrifying. That one sword was so strong that he nearly peed itself.
“Do you remember what the price for not following the contract is?” Li Xiandao asked coldly.
The Great Ocean Saint Turtle couldn’t say anything.
He had forgotten!
10,000 years had passed and he had totally forgotten about all the details on the contract.
Li Xiandao scoffed coldly, “You exchanged 10,000 years of lifespan for the Xuanwu Neidan and you said that you would return it 10,000 years later. If you went against it, you would pay 10 times the amount!”
“Which means that I will take the Xuanwu Neidan from you and also 100,000 years of your lifespan.” Li Xiandao said cruelly.
“I only have 100,000 years left. If you take it all, then how will I live?” The Great Ocean Saint Turtle exclaimed.
“Also, the Xuanwu Neidan is one with my body. Taking it away would be the same as you slashing me with a blade.” The Great Ocean Saint Turtle begged.
Li Xiandao said coldly, “If that is the case, then I am really talented to slash you with a blade.”
“You demon…” Great Ocean Saint Turtle said furiously.
Li Xiandao placed his index finger onto the Great Ocean Saint Turtle’s forehead and said calmly, “Remember in the next life not to break contracts, especially ones that you’ve personally signed.”
“No…” The Great Ocean Saint Turtle screamed in terror.
The Bank of the Universe’s power was activated and it started to absorb 100,000 years of lifespan from the Great Ocean Saint Turtle.
He instantly sensed that he was getting older and older and he was unable to stop it at all. The Great Ocean Saint Turtle looked at Li Xiandao in terror.
But Li Xiandao was wearing a mask and the silence gave him a deep sense of fear.
The Bank of the Universe sucked his lifespan out really quickly. In just an hour, the Great Ocean Saint Turtle wanted to struggle, but he couldn’t move at all. His life had come to an end and his old body was floating on the ocean, waiting to die at any moment.
Li Xiandao retracted his finger and said calmly, “No one can break the Bank of the Universe’s contracts!”
Hong!
Li Xiandao turned into a streak of energy, rising into the air and disappearing into the sky.
The water on the surface of the ocean started to bubble.
The Great Ocean Saint Turtle’s body slowly sank to the bottom. He was eaten by numerous ocean creatures which helped to strengthen them.
….
Li Xiandao returned to the Bank of the Universe and washed up. He changed his clothing, took off the gold mask, and laid leisurely in the chair.
Seven carried some fruits and placed them on the table. She said, “I have told Heaven Heart, Lucifer, and Moon Angel Usuna to head out to collect some debts. In just a while, all the debts here will be cleared.”
Li Xiandao nodded his head. He picked up an apple and with a flick of his finger, it broke into dozens of pieces. He picked up one of the pieces and ate it.
“I have just collected the Great Ocean Saint Turtle’s 100,000 years of lifespan and also the Xuanwu Pellet from before.” Li Xiandao said calmly.
“Then, we can unlock the third mountain.” Seven surprised Li Xiandao.
“Third mountain?” Li Xiandao was shocked.
“The first is the Time Hall, second is the Ten Thousand Country Book Depository and the third is?” Li Xiandao asked.
“Legacy Hall!” Seven said right away.
“Legacy Hall?” Li Xiandao’s brow rose.
“There are many characters in legends, books, and stories whom the Bank of the Universe has a close relationship with. After they die, the Bank of the Universe will keep a portion of their soul and place it in the Legacy Hall.” Seven said.
“Then, we can revive them?” Li Xiandao asked.
“No!” Seven shook her head regretfully. She too wanted to revive them as they would be extremely strong people if they came back alive.
“It is already not easy that the Bank of the Universe can keep a portion of their soul. They are unable to revive themselves.” Seven said.
Li Xiandao asked, “How much do we have to pay to redeem the Legacy Hall?”
“100,000 years of lifespan!” Seven smiled sweetly.
Legacy Hall scoffed coldly, “Were you thinking about redeeming the Legacy Hall when you passed me the Great Ocean Saint Turtle’s contract?”
Seven gave him another cute finger heart and said, “Master is so smart.”
The depressed feeling Li Xiandao had in his heart disappeared after seeing that finger heart. He sighed helplessly. “I thought that I would be able to use this 100,000 years of lifespan however I like. ”
If Li Xiandao could do whatever he wanted, he would burn it for cultivation. Then, he would definitely touch the cusp of Celestial Realm.
Seven smiled, “Master, if you did that, you would die and I would need to welcome the 10th owner. Then, I could give him finger hearts and wear beautiful dresses for him. I will call him Master and spend every day with him.”
Li Xiandao frowned and stared at Seven. He asked solemnly, “Have you given any of the other owners a finger heart?”
Seven blinked and burst into laughter. “Do you think every one of them is as open as you?”
“What do you mean?” Li Xiandao didn’t understand.
“The previous few owners all came from the Nine Skies and Ten Lands and had their ideals fixed by the world here. They didn’t care much about women and didn’t like it when I handled matters. They treated me as a flower vase who just needed to be in charge of looking pretty.” Seven sighed.
Li Xiandao said, “I didn’t do that.”
“Which is why I give you finger hearts. The others don’t even know what that means; they are so boring.” Seven frowned and did a cute pig face.
Li Xiandao smiled. She said that the other owners were boring. Didn’t that mean that he was interesting?
“Cough cough. Take the 100,000 years of lifespan and redeem the Legacy Hall.” Legacy Hall was really magnanimous.
Seven looked at him and asked, “Are you very happy now?”
“What are you saying? I always consider things for the Bank of the Universe. Stop being so rude to me.” Li Xiandao frowned and said righteously.
“It seems like I can’t be rude to you. Haiz, a finger heart is considered rude too. Forget it, I will go and redeem the Legacy Hall.” Seven sighed helplessly before turning around and leaving.
Li Xiandao frowned.
