Chapter 337 The History of Lingxi World

The first thing that catches the eye is the contract that Xia Chao and Qiu Shi are very familiar with—the master-servant contract.

However, the method of using the master-servant contract on the mural is very different from that in the current Lingxi world.

Xia Chao saw on the mural that the powerful contracted beasts surrendered to the humans and pledged allegiance to them. The annotation on the side showed that this was a master-servant contract, and the mark held by the humans symbolized the master.

"In the beginning, when the master-servant contract was used, humans were the masters and the contracted beasts were the servants. It's the opposite of what it is now."

Xiao Qing and Bone-Winged White Tiger were angry and dissatisfied with the previous era.

Why should humans be their masters?

Xia Chao ignored Xiaoqing who was hanging around his neck and rolling her eyes, and continued to try to decipher the contents of the mural.

The murals do not seem to record anything as a commemoration, but rather they seem to be a madness or despair, wanting to record everything and leave their own traces in the world.

Therefore, the murals and annotations are not very easy to decipher.

It is hard to imagine what happened to force a cultivator who is at least in the late stage of the Spiritualization Stage into a desperate situation.

"Although they have signed a master-servant contract, humans do not treat contracted beasts as slaves and order them around at will. Instead, they treat contracted beasts as friends and give them equal status."

"The contracted beasts help humans practice, allowing some humans to study the laws of various things in their spare time, summarize the laws, and use spiritual energy as a driving method."

"This method greatly promotes production and is convenient for humans and contracted beasts."

"More and more contracted beasts like the technology of the human race and voluntarily sign contracts to become slaves and serve the human race."

"The human race and the contracted beasts are developing harmoniously, and both sides are becoming stronger and stronger."

"One day, a strange monster appeared. It had a snake-like body and nine heads. No one dared to sign a contract with it."

"A man named Tomoe made a contract with this monster."

"The nine-headed contracted beast cultivates very quickly. Due to the effectiveness of the master-servant contract, the servant's cultivation level cannot surpass the master. 'Ba''s cultivation level will always be one level higher than the nine-headed contracted beast."

"When the nine-headed contracted beast cultivated to the Spiritual Transformation Stage, it opened up its spiritual wisdom, inherited the memories of its ancestors in its bloodline, and finally understood its own life experience."

"The nine-headed contracted beast is named Xiangliu, and is a fairy beast species. It has experienced a reversion phenomenon, and its blood purity is highly consistent with that of its ancestors. This is why it has such a fast cultivation speed."

"After continuous fighting and slaughter, Xiang Liu entered the Tribulation Crossing Stage, and 'Ba' also entered the Tribulation Crossing Stage."

“It was only then that people realized that the stage above the Fusion Stage was the Tribulation Stage.”

"After that, Xiangliu became an immortal, and 'Ba' also became an immortal."

On the mural, Xiangliu, who is taller than a mountain, stretches out his nine heads to fight against the calamity of becoming an immortal. "Ba" stands next to Xiangliu and asks Xiangliu to block the calamity for him.

The ladder to immortality appears, and Xiangliu and "Ba" become immortals.

"This is not only the first person to ascend in Lingxi World, but also the last one. Whenever someone asks how to reach the Tribulation Crossing Stage, Ba and Xiangliu are afraid that someone will surpass them, so they keep silent about it."

"No one in Lingxi World has ever become an immortal."

Seeing this, Jiang Li shook his head slightly. "Ba" and Xiangliu openly said that reaching the Tribulation Period was what harmed the Lingxi world.

Unfortunately, the people in Lingxi World did not understand what it meant and thought that "Ba" and Xiangliu were unwilling to share their experience.

"After the man and the beast ascended, they never came back. Perhaps after ascending to the fairyland, they can no longer come down."

After Xia Chao finished reading the annotations on the mural, he turned to ask Jiang Li.

"is that so?"

"Of course not. As long as there is a ladder to immortality, immortals can go to any world from the immortal world, including the world they ascended to."

"Then why haven't they come back?" Qiu Shi was puzzled.

"Because Ba has never practiced, it is equivalent to becoming an immortal without doing anything. Although he has reached the immortal level, his actual combat ability is far inferior to that of his peers. The immortal world is not a place where peace makes money. After he ascends, he may die in battle. Due to the existence of the master-servant contract, if the master dies, Xiangliu will also die."

"But these are just guesses and may not be accurate."

"Although 'Ba' and Xiangliu never came back, they left behind a rich legacy before ascending. The Lingxi world has experienced explosive growth, and the number of contracted beasts and monks in the fusion stage has continued to increase. In various bounty competitions, world competitions, and league competitions, both humans and contracted beasts are keen to participate in the competitions to gain fame and wealth."

On the mural, humans and contracted beasts are holding hands, both of them are filled with happy smiles.

"Everything was going in a good direction, but suddenly one day, a contracted beast reached the Tribulation Crossing Stage, but its master did not."

"I don't know how this contracted beast broke the contract and escaped from control."

"This contracted beast seems to harbor hatred towards both humans and demonic beasts. It has a violent temperament and has killed countless people."

"The humans and monsters wanted to resist, but unfortunately, facing the second person in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, they were powerless to fight back."

In the mural, the monkey with a red head and white feet is grinning and looks ugly, and it is obviously a ferocious monster.

Xia Chao and Qiu Shi had never seen this kind of monkey.

"It's Zhu Yan. Judging from Zhu Yan's appearance in the mural, he is probably another atavistic one." Jiang Li and Bai Xueling both recognized him. Zhu Yan is also a fairy beast with a powerful bloodline.

Xia Chao continued to interpret the mural: "People had no choice but to hide in the air-raid shelter, hoping to stop the terrifying contracted beast."

"That contracted beast made the human race no longer trust other contracted beasts. People abandoned their contracted beasts and hid in air-raid shelters alone."

"The human race has built hundreds of large air-raid shelters, but every other day we receive news that an air-raid shelter has been destroyed. The contracted beast seems to be looking for something. What could it be?"

"It seemed to have discovered that humans could communicate via radio, but somehow it lost contact."

"We have completely lost contact with the outside world."

"That contracted beast is coming..."

The mural ends here, and the monk who painted it did not finish writing the last sentence.

Although it was not written, everyone could guess that Zhu Yan, who was in the Tribulation Period, broke through the door and entered the air-raid shelter. No one was spared, including the author of the mural.

Although the author of the mural was in the late stage of Spirit Transformation or even the Fusion stage, he was no different in front of Zhu Yan, who was in the Tribulation Crossing stage, and could only be slaughtered by him.

"Gone?" Xia Chao didn't expect that the original era was destroyed because of a Zhu Yan.

But how Zhu Yan broke the master-servant contract, why he hated the human race, and where he is now are all unknown.

"Maybe there will be a follow-up." Jiang Li used his spiritual sense to scan the air-raid shelter and found something interesting.

Bai Xueling also discovered it.

The air-raid shelter is like a giant maze. Without a map, it is easy to get lost.

Led by Jiang Li, everyone came to a small room where there was a scattered corpse. It was unknown whether it belonged to one person or several people.

Jiang Li picked up a diary. After two thousand years, the paper was extremely brittle. Jiang Li refined it slightly to increase its strength and toughness.

The first page of the diary reads:

"Today I signed a master-servant contract with a little monkey with a red head and white feet."
