Bank of the Universe
Chapter 54: Soul-Locking Tree!
King of Flames used the unlimited flames to carry all the Dragon Tombs out.
It wasn’t tough for it, and if not for the Dragon Soul suppressing, it would have done so long ago.
Now, the Dragon Souls were suppressed by Li Xiandao. Alone, they weren’t as strong as the King of Flames, but together, they could suppress it.
It was useless against Li Xiandao and he easily suppressed them.
Li Xiandao kept 30 Dragon Souls and suppressed them together on Michael’s body. He told him to bring it back to the Bank of the Universe.
Explosion!
30 Dragon tombs moved together, making a loud commotion. With King of Flames’s help, it became much simpler.
Otherwise, with just Long Haishou and the three of them, it would have been a huge problem carrying it up, much less shipping it out.
Within the Heaven and Earth Battlefield, the area above the flames started to shake.
* Dong dong dong!*
The rumbling magma exploded out like a volcano. It spat out large amounts of flames, which caused the ground to burn.
Then, the 30 tombs were all lifted out!
Each tomb was 1,000 meters long, and the main one was 10,000 meters.
The Dragon Tomb was so huge; Battle Angel Michael was baffled about how to move it out.
“I have a treasure that can store many things.” Long Haishou took out a mirror-like treasure.
The mirror shone and the Dragon Tombs were kept in the treasure.
The tombs which had no Dragon Souls interrupting posed no threat at all and were kept quickly.
When Li Xiandao saw these scenes, he nodded his head with satisfaction. He looked at the King of Flames, “I will help you clear that Sword Energy and I will give you something. If you are lonely and don’t want to stay in the Flame World, then shatter it. You will come to see me!”
Li Xiandao passed King of Flames a red watch which was the same as giving it a chance.
Would it grab that chance?
It depended on it. If it was used to being in that world and didn’t want to come out, then forget it.
The Li Xiandao that was formed from Sword Energy slowly scattered. Tian Guangming’s Sword Energy had used up all its energy.
King of Flames took the red watch and who knew what it recalled? It was stunned and slowly headed back into the Flame World.
Battle Angel Michael didn’t worry about it and said, “Now, that we have it, we need to leave this place and head back to Dali Land.”
Long Haishou and the others had nothing to say and immediately headed back.
It was another month-long journey. Li Xiandao was too lazy to care and didn’t observe them.
…
Dali Land, within the Bank of the Universe, Li Xiandao was elated. “The Ancient Dragon Tomb has many treasures. I also found God Spirit Meridians within. That one is so unbelievably thick; if we get it, I will be able to redeem the Ten Thousand Country Book Depository.”
Ten Thousand Country Book Depository, it was said to have collected the books of 10,000 empires. There was a huge variety of books which would be of great help to Li Xiandao.
He wanted to redeem it but didn’t succeed as he had no God Spirit Meridians.
Now, with what Tian Guangming and Michael took from the Ancient Dragon Tomb, Li Xiandao had a chance.
As long as they brought the tomb back, Li Xiandao could open the Ten Thousand Country Book Depository.
Seven smiled, “Congratulations Master, if Ten Thousand Country Book Depository is opened, then Bank of the Universe’s permission level will recover a little. If this goes on, we will be able to develop not only in Dali Land, but also on the outside.”
Li Xiandao laid comfortably on the chair and said, “This Long Haishou is decent; at least he really brought me an Ancient Dragon Tomb.”
Seven said, “Master, once we get the many treasures from the tomb, we can expand outwards. Before that, we need to clear some debts in Dali Land.”
Li Xiandao nodded his head, “Bring over all the large scale debts in Dali Land.”
When he cleared the contracts, he cleared many related to Dali Land.
He passed the trash contracts to Archangel Gabriel, doing a good job, and was on the way back now.
Now, a large portion of the debtors weren’t in this world.
10,000 years of time was a really long time, many people would fall on this path and as such the contracts they signed wouldn’t be in effect.
It was the same as all the things he gave them being for nothing.
Of course, Li Xiandao could understand all of that. It was impossible to not have any risk at all when signing contracts.
This was why although he felt heartpained, Li Xiandao tore all these contracts.
Cultivation was like rowing a boat against the current. If one was not careful, one could fall into the ocean and be eaten by the sharks.
Once Li Xiandao and Seven dealt with all of them, he realized that there were only five contracts that could be collected.
In the huge Dali Land, only five remained. One could see how many people had died during the 10,000 years.
Seven sighed, “It has been like that since ancient times. Cultivation has always been the newbies laughing and the old people crying. Walking would be like becoming emperor, there would only be one winner.”
Li Xiandao nodded but he was unable to relate.
That was because in 500 years he finished things that people would never be able to do in their whole lives.
“In these five contracts, they all borrowed things from us and didn’t return them.” Li Xiandao said calmly.
“Based on the strength of them, from Ten Thousand Monster Valley to Hundred Flower Holy Land, Mingde College, Ten Thousand Buddha Temple, Diandao Sect!” Seven read them one by one.
“Wait, Hundred Flower Holy Land!” Li Xiandao frowned and felt interested. He had come into contact with Hundred Flower Holy Land before.
He took that contract and he realized that 10,000 years ago, the Sect Leader of Hundred Flower Holy Land borrowed a treasure, Soul Locking Tree!
The agreement was that they would return 10,000 years later, but the Hundred Flower Holy Land Sect Leader didn’t reveal any information, so it was obvious he wasn’t planning to pay it back.
“What kind of treasure is that Soul Locking Tree?” Li Xiandao asked.
Li Xiandao had not seen anything from 10,000 years ago.
But he guessed something.
“Soul Locking Tree, as the name suggests, is a tree that locks souls. Once you lock onto it, then you won’t be able to take it away for the rest of your life.” Seven explained.
“But I don’t understand; why would one lock a complete soul?”
“One must know that once the Soul Locking Tree locks the soul, then the soul won’t be complete.” Seven said in confusion.
“Can one decide to only lock a certain aspect of one’s soul?” Li Xiandao asked.
“Yes, but there is no point. A complete soul is the best; if it is incomplete, then it won’t be perfect.” Seven emphasized.
“I think I know why they do that.” Li Xiandao nodded and smiled.
