Chapter 4



Who is Fang Wei?

Hua Shi was very happy to complete this task, because it did not require him to take any risks personally, nor did it require him to expend any energy. As the fifth young master of the famous Hua family, Hua Shi did not even leave the house when doing these investigations. He directly ordered his servants to move all the books and records related to Fang Wei from the Hua family's library, and then began to read them.

Of course, this review was not done by Hua Shi himself, but by his servants. Hua Shi specially found twelve servants, all of whom were busy in his courtyard. Finally, they succinctly recorded what they had found and gave it to Hua Shi for review.

However, as a young master who was extremely lazy, Hua Shi naturally found even the step of reviewing the information troublesome, so in the end it was his subordinates who massaged his shoulders and legs and read the streamlined information to Hua Shi.

"It is said that Fang Wei's name first appeared in public when he was sixteen years old. It is said in Jianghu that the evil master of Fengyu Palace picked up a severely injured boy with a completely destroyed spiritual sea on his way back from the Spiritual Transformation Conference. The master of Fengyu Palace rescued him and talked with him in the room for three whole days. After three days, the master of Fengyu Palace announced that he would accept the boy as his disciple, and that disciple was Fang Wei." Although the attendant had already read the information and records, he still couldn't help but marvel at this. "At that time, this incident must have caused quite a stir in Xuanqing Continent. Many books have different records about this period."

Hua Shi held his chin up and listened to him. At this time, he couldn't help but ask, "Is this matter so sensational?"

He couldn't help but ask about his own system in his mind, but Fang Wei had been very diligent in disguising the system since he "signed the contract" with him. He would never speak easily unless it was necessary, so he naturally did not respond to Hua Shi's words.

It was the same attendant who explained in a low voice for Hua Shi: "Young Master, you don't know that the boy's spiritual sea is completely destroyed, which means he can no longer transform into a spirit. Moreover, he is already sixteen years old. In the various sects of Xuanqing Continent, the age for disciples to become apprentices is under ten years old. It is difficult to start practicing after the age of ten, and it is almost difficult to get started if you are over fifteen."

After hearing this, Hua Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was a good thing that he had practiced in this body before, otherwise it would have been difficult to even get started.

Fang Wei heard all of Hua Shi's inner thoughts through the bond between their souls, because this young master Hua Shi was simply a chatterbox, and anything could trigger his mood swings, and then he would begin to secretly mutter to Fang Wei in his mind.

For example, some of the Hua family's pastries were delicious, he couldn't seem to taste any of those expensive teas, and the servant next to him seemed to be secretly watching his maid while working to see if she was interested in her.

When the attendant talked about Fang Wei's experience just now, Hua Shi also complained about his system in his mind, saying that he had seen this kind of routine many times and really didn't understand why it caused a sensation. Isn't the rise of losers an old routine? How common is the counterattack and slap in the face? Haven't everyone seen enough? How can someone still stretch out his face to get beaten?

Fang Wei listened silently to the conversation in Hua Shi's mind. She felt that although this person seemed silent on the surface, the noise in his mind was far beyond the reach of ordinary people. It even made Fang Wei want to sever the connection between their souls several times.

However, Hua Shi was still a newcomer and had little understanding of this world. He only understood half of what the servant said just now. He was afraid that the servant would find out that something was wrong, so he could only ask Fang Wei in his mind: "He said that Fang Wei's spiritual sea was completely destroyed. What is a spiritual sea?"

This question is common sense, Fang Wei did not hesitate to answer, and finally said: "In Xuanqing Continent, there are two main ways for people to practice. One is to cultivate the sea of qi, and the other is to cultivate the sea of spirit. Cultivating the sea of qi can improve the realm of strength, while the sea of spirit can support the power needed for spiritual transformation."

Hua Shi listened with great interest: "What is the spirit transformation?"

Fang Wei said: "There are countless innate and acquired spiritual creatures in Xuanqing Continent. People with strong strength can find spiritual creatures that suit them and sign contracts with them. People who successfully subdue spiritual creatures can perform spirit transformation and use the power of spiritual creatures to enter a semi-spiritual state. The stronger the spiritual sea, the stronger the spiritual creatures that can be subdued. And the higher the grade of the spiritual creature, the higher the combat effectiveness of the spirit transformation state."

This power he had never encountered before completely aroused Hua Shi's interest. He left his servant aside and couldn't help but ask Fang Wei in his mind: "What kind of spiritual objects are there? Just cultivate the spiritual sea? Can I do that? I don't have any spiritual objects now, right? How many spiritual objects can I collect with my current strength?"

Seeing his excitement, Fang Wei couldn't help but have a bad feeling in his heart. He was silent for a moment and said, "The host has been cultivating the Spiritual Sea since he was young. Now the Spiritual Sea is at the third level, and there is no spiritual creature for the time being. Everyone can only form a contract with three spiritual creatures in their lifetime. Therefore, the children of aristocratic families and many elite disciples of sects generally don't form a contract too early. Most of them will choose to wait until the Spiritual Sea is cultivated to the fifth level or above, and then participate in the Spiritual Transformation Conference to enter the Spiritual Realm to find spiritual creatures above the fifth level to form a contract with."

The original owner of this body, Hua Shi, has not yet formed a contract with a spiritual creature, probably because he is waiting for the Spirit Transformation Conference.

Hearing what Fang Wei said, Hua Shi suddenly became full of interest in the Spirit Transformation Conference, and it seemed that he wanted to find a spiritual creature right away to perform the Spirit Transformation to see the effect. Fang Wei heard Hua Shi's idea and thought this was a good opportunity. Since Hua Shi was interested in Spirit Transformation, he could take advantage of this and trick Hua Shi into attending the Spirit Transformation Conference, and he could also take this opportunity to investigate certain things that happened back then.

Fang Wei had already planned the future in his mind, but after Hua Shi got excited for a while, he suddenly calmed down for some reason and said, "A place like the Spiritual Transformation Conference should be very dangerous, right?"

Fang Wei was stunned for a moment, and quickly said: "No..."

"This kind of occasion is where accidents happen most often in novels. Disciples who attend the conference will always run into danger, and then a boss will pop up to carry out his own conspiracy." Hua Shi said this in his mind, and immediately shook his head, giving up the idea of attending the Spiritual Transformation Conference, "No, no, I can't take this risk."

Fang Wei: “…”

Before he could persuade Hua Shi to be brave, Hua Shi suddenly seemed to have thought of something and asked hurriedly, "By the way, does your system include rewards like spiritual objects? Do you want to give away spiritual baby items when signing a contract?"

Fang Wei fell silent again.

After a long while, Fang Wei finally spoke again: "Yes."

Since he wanted Hua Shi to help him escape from the prison, he naturally needed to help Hua Shi improve his strength. He had naturally thought about what kind of spiritual object to prepare for Hua Shi. This was not a difficult task for him, but the spiritual object was not so easy to talk to. With Hua Shi's current strength, it was too difficult for him to control it. He would need to wait for some time.

He naturally wouldn't tell Hua Shi that, so he could only say: "But that's the reward for the main quest in the later stages. Host, please work hard to complete the quest."

Hua Shi's eyes sparkled. Although he was disappointed that the spiritual object was not given to him right at the beginning, he was still very much looking forward to it. He couldn't help but ask, "Can I know in advance what spiritual object it is? Is it powerful? Do I need to bring it a gift when I see it?"

Fang Wei tried his best to be patient: "A tenth-level spiritual object, the others cannot be revealed for the time being."

Hua Shi blinked: "Tenth level?"

Fang Wei didn't say anything else. He had already explained everything that needed to be explained, so he went back to playing dead mode.

Hua Shi didn't hear Fang Wei's answer and didn't care. The servant had just said a few words when he saw his young master was in a daze for some reason. The servant waited for a long time but didn't see Hua Shi's response. Finally, he couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Fifth Young Master?"

This voice brought Hua Shi back to his senses from his daydreaming. He couldn't help but raise the corner of his lips and looked up to ask the attendant in front of him: "Um, the Qi Sea of the evil master Fang Wei was damaged, right? So he didn't form a contract with the spirit creatures later? Then how did he become so powerful later?"

The attendant quickly flipped through the records, shook his head and corrected him, "No, the evil master later used some unknown technique, and later also had a contracted spiritual object."

Hua Shi asked curiously: "What is it? What level is it?"

The attendant replied, "A tenth-level spiritual creature, the Nine Heavens White Dragon."

Hua Shi looked a little surprised: "Bai Long?"

He never imagined that the evil lord Fang Wei from a thousand years ago, who was known as a villain, had a spiritual creature that was more important than the protagonist for some reason.

However, this surprise was only temporary. Hua Shi was most concerned about the grade of this spiritual object. He quickly asked, "Is a tenth-grade spiritual object very strong? How strong is it?"

Speaking of the tenth-tier spiritual creature, even the attendant showed an expression of yearning that could not be concealed: "In the past thousand years, only three tenth-tier spiritual creatures have appeared in the entire Xuanqing Continent. According to records from a thousand years ago, the famous battle of this evil master Fang Wei was when he used a tenth-tier spiritual creature to transform into the Nine Heavens White Dragon Battle Armor and fought against the five major sects on his own."

The combat power of the tenth-level spiritual creature far exceeded Hua Shi's imagination. Even he found it hard to believe that he would soon be able to possess such a spiritual creature.

He was stunned for a moment, then asked, "What does spiritual transformation look like?"

The attendant immediately explained: "Spiritual transformation can turn a person into a half-spiritual body. Each spiritual creature has a different form of spiritual transformation. Some turn a person into a half-human, half-spiritual creature, some turn them into spiritual armor covering their bodies, and some masters with strong cultivation can turn them into a full spiritual body, completely transforming into the appearance of a spiritual creature to fight..."

Hua Shi didn't have the patience to listen to this. He interrupted the servant with great interest and raised his eyebrows and said, "You also have a spiritual object to form a bond with, right?"

The attendant paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, but my subordinate is weak, and the one I have bonded with is only a second-level spiritual creature."

Hua Shi stared at him while holding the teacup: "Show me your spirit form."

The attendant lowered his eyes and said respectfully, "Yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of light suddenly emanated from the servant's body. In the light, Hua Shi seemed to see a miniature of a spiritual creature appear for a moment, but the miniature passed by too fast, and before Hua Shi could see clearly, it had already merged into the center of the light.

Then the light gradually dissipated, and Hua Shi finally saw clearly the servant in front of him who had entered the spiritual state.

The appearance of this servant had not changed much from before, except that his pupils had turned into a dark green color, and his hair had turned into a dark black with a green tint, draped behind him like tangled seaweed. His skin had become as shiny as iron stone, and right behind him, a huge tortoise shell had appeared.

Facing Hua Shi's gaze, the attendant, with his green hair and a tortoise shell on his head, smiled bitterly and lowered his head and said, "Fifth Young Master, this is my spiritual form."

Hua Shi: “…”

The fifth young master of the Hua family, who always left others speechless, could not help but remain silent at this time.

It seems that not all spiritual creatures are suitable for forming a contract. Hua Shi couldn't help but start to worry about what his future spiritual form would look like.
