This was the first time in thousands of years that Emperor Yao felt "shocked" by the words of a mortal. For a moment, he even suspected that he had slept for too long in order to accumulate merit. The world had changed so much that the use of some words had undergone strange changes.
Ghost messenger.
It's so ridiculous that it's laughable.
"You know that humans and ghosts have different paths. If we sign a contract, it will be like our fates are connected?"
Emperor Yang could tell without even looking that apart from some inspiration brought by Bai Yuzhi's pure yin constitution, there was nothing left on his body. This meant that someone had changed his fate.
If it was a complete pure Yin constitution, it might be interesting, but now, with his own energy, the white jade would bleed to death the moment he ate the offering, not to mention their fate being connected.
He lowered his eyes, because he felt the word "fate" was ridiculous.
Even a true god like him would choose to sleep because of his lifeline. If there were anyone who dared to sign a contract with him and share his lifeline, even if he survived, he would be subjected to cruel torture that would bring him endless regret for thousands of years. No one knew this better than him.
Bai Yuzhi pursed her lips nervously, and the blood in her palm flowed down her white arm because she was unable to support it, forming a strange yet beautiful blood line.
She raised her head and tried to look straight behind the vortex. Even though she couldn't see anything, she never lowered her head.
"Yes, I know, and I am willing to do so, at any cost."
At all costs.
Emperor Yao's playful attitude suddenly turned cold. Bai Yuzhi could sense the change in his aura. He had no intention of getting entangled with her, but now...
An aura hundreds of times colder than that of a ghost surrounded Bai Yuzhi. This feeling was far more frightening than being trapped in a snake cave or a ghost cave. Despite Bai Yuzhi's calm state of mind, the first thing to react was her weak body.
Outside the nightgown, her calves, which had long lost all feeling, tried to tense up. Her arms, which she had tried to raise, trembled uncontrollably, and the blood in her palms rippled slightly.
He was angry and even had murderous intentions towards her.
There was something in that simple sentence that was enough to anger Him.
It's a price.
Emperor Yao suppressed all the emotions that could barely be called compassion that he had just revealed, and now he looked more like a real ghost or god.
"In that case, I accept your contract."
When Di Yang said the word "accept", Bai Yuzhi almost instantly felt a huge yin energy that seemed to tear her apart. These energy bodies squeezed into her body through her unhealed fingertips and flowed into her blood.
This kind of pain cannot even be blocked by the system's simple pain-blocking method. This is also the first time that Bai Yuzhi has felt real suffering in the mission world.
She acted decisively and quickly used the expensive item she had bought just in case before she was actually torn apart.
【Props: Change your fate】
【Value: Points】
[Effect: The designated user can change their fate regardless of the objective limitations of their birth date and time.]
[Special Note: There may be certain side effects, the effects of which depend on the user's current physical condition]
One can guess what this prop was originally used for from the white jade it was made of. It was probably to prevent the tasker from having bad luck, such as the birth time of the child being conceived being unlucky or encountering some celestial phenomenon that represents an ominous omen.
Then this prop can be used to change the child's fate.
Or we can go a step further and say that the target of the strategy is born with bad luck. This is not a rumor or fallacy but a natural jinx. In order to prevent the tasker from being "killed" by all kinds of bad luck, you can use this item to change your luck.
In short, the role of this prop is not small, as can be seen from its expensive price.
The last time Bai Yuzhi saw such an expensive item was when he exchanged for the "Vision" in the second world.
After discovering that the ghost summoned by An's energy was her mission target, Bai Yuzhi quickly exchanged for this prop, fearing that her now fragile body could not withstand it. The current situation proves that her choice was indeed correct.
This world is extremely complicated.
First of all, this time, the system did not immediately inform Bai Yuzhi of the clear information about the mission target.
This is not because the system forgot such an important thing or for any other reason. The reason why it did not tell Bai Yuzhi the target of the attack at the beginning is because the situation of the villain this time is different from that in the previous worlds.
The previous strategy targets were more or less inextricably linked to the lucky people of this world, that is, the protagonists, but this time it was different.
The connection between the target of this attack and this world is extremely weak, so weak that the system cannot even sense who the specific target is before entering the world.
Therefore, before entering the world, the system cannot successfully determine the true mission target. It can only tell Bai Yuzhi the truth that only after entering the world will there be a chance of capturing the mission target.
This is also one of the difficulties of this dungeon mission known as Hell Difficulty.
Just imagine, if it weren't for the energy bestowed by An on Bai Yuzhi, if it were any other tasker who came, they wouldn't know the target until they entered the mission world, or even the target was in the underworld that humans could never reach. Wouldn't they be wandering around in this world all their lives?
The system in Bai Yuzhi's body had even absorbed the energy of the world consciousness. Even so, it was difficult to determine the mission target, let alone other systems that had not been replenished.
In short, the goal this time was determined so quickly thanks to the energy and connections Bai Yuzhi had accumulated in previous missions. Otherwise, no matter how smart she was, if she couldn't determine the mission target, then this mission would be an unbreakable deadlock.
Because she had An's energy, she awakened the sleeping Emperor Fengdu. Because the system had undergone two upgrades, it was able to confirm that Emperor Fengdu was the target of the mission as soon as he appeared.
The combination of the two broke the fatal situation.
It was a dangerous situation.
The cause of this strange phenomenon is related to another danger that Bai Yuzhi is facing now.
During the brief few moments of confrontation between Bai Yuzhi and Di Yang, the system, which had uncovered the identity of the target, was finally able to find out what kind of existence this hidden villain was in the original world.
Humans have meticulous writing in history books, and ghosts have the verdicts of heaven and earth. In this original world, the heroine Bai Lingxi finally embarked on the path of cultivating the power of the laws of the great way, achieved great success, and received the gift of heaven -
The Yin-Yang Book that records the fate of humans and ghosts in the world.
The disaster brought about by the Emperor of Fengdu is on the last page of this Yin-Yang Book.
