Ye Ling toyed with the power of the Realm Demon Spirit, sighing, "Tsk, tsk, tsk… the density of your power is truly extraordinary. Even sealed by the Wu Xing Demon God, its quality is almost on par with my peak. If I were to release you, what then?"
After a moment of collapse, the Realm Demon Spirit quickly calmed down and reorganized its thoughts.
Now knowing there was no need to act in front of Ye Ling, the Realm Demon Spirit coldly said to him, "Ye Ling, taking my power is meaningless. I will sign a Demon Spirit Contract with you. Return my power to me and then release me, how about it?"
Ye Ling laughed, "You can sign a Demon Spirit Contract with me at this point?"
The Realm Demon Spirit snorted, "We're both smart people, let's not waste time acting here."
As the Realm Demon Spirit finished speaking, a Demon Spirit Contract flew out from the embryo that sealed him. He said to Ye Ling, "These are the recognized terms for Demon Spirit Contracts in our Void Dark Plane, fair to both of us. I have already signed my name. Once you write yours, our contract will be established."
Ye Ling didn't even glance at the Realm Demon Spirit's contract, smiling, "This is your Void Dark Plane's rule, but I am from the Void, and I only sign Void version Demon Spirit Contracts."
The Realm Demon Spirit was extremely displeased with Ye Ling's current attitude, but he had no countermeasure at the moment. He said, "Then draft a Demon Spirit Contract yourself."
"I've already prepared it."
Ye Ling, with a bright smile, copied the Demon Spirit Contract he had signed with Vivian and presented it to the Realm Demon Spirit, "If there are no problems, after signing the contract, I will return your power and release you."
The Realm Demon Spirit hadn't realized the severity of the situation. He directly took Ye Ling's drafted contract into the embryo and quickly reviewed it. Immediately, his entire face turned green, and he roared at Ye Ling, "What the hell do you think I am? Isn't this just a contract of servitude? What's the difference between you and the Wu Xing Demon God?"
Ye Ling laughed, "There's a huge difference. The Wu Xing Demon God wants to treat you as a slave, but ours is a contract, an employment relationship, and you'll be paid wages."
"Bah!" The Realm Demon Spirit unhesitatingly tore up the contract Ye Ling had drafted, "Even if I become a slave to the Wu Xing Demon God, I will never yield to a black-hearted fellow like you!"
The Realm Demon Spirit had previously thought that the Void Dark Plane gathered all darkness and evil, and that any Demon Spirit Contract signed by an innate demon spirit would, at best, be terms of enslavement that limited the demon spirit's freedom.
But now, compared to Ye Ling's, the Demon Spirit Contracts of the Void Dark Plane were practically angelic terms!
As the third-ranked innate demon spirit, the Realm Demon Spirit had his pride. He would never submit to such demonic terms from Ye Ling!
No… even demons weren't as black-hearted as Ye Ling!
Ye Ling was not surprised by the Realm Demon Spirit's reaction. He merely sighed slightly, "What a pity…"
The Realm Demon Spirit snorted, "What's a pity? Only a fool would sign your contract. I don't know what kind of spell you've cast on the True Illusion Demon Spirit, but I will never yield!"
"You can go. I'd rather be enslaved by the Wu Xing Demon God than… you, what are you doing?"
Before the Realm Demon Spirit could finish speaking, he saw Ye Ling entwine him with rune chains, and he exclaimed in surprise.
Ye Ling said calmly, "I come from the Void, and you are an innate demon spirit of the Void Dark Plane. We should be natural enemies. Furthermore, the Wu Xing Demon God and I are mortal enemies, and you will later become the Wu Xing Demon God's fighting force. Therefore, regardless of the reason… since you cannot be used by me, I can only kill you to eliminate future trouble."
"You, you… do you know what you're doing?"
The Realm Demon Spirit was terrified by Ye Ling's insane actions.
In the Void Dark Plane, given his status and position as the Realm Demon Spirit, no matter what terrifying existence he encountered, they would not kill him. At most, they would imprison and slowly enslave him.
After all, the third-ranked innate demon spirit was unique in the Void Dark Plane, and once killed, he could never be encountered again.
Even the brutal Wu Xing Demon God had only chosen to seal the Realm Demon Spirit and then plan slowly.
The Realm Demon Spirit had never imagined that someone would dare to kill him!
And crucially, Ye Ling's current posture clearly meant he was serious!
The Realm Demon Spirit panicked and quickly tried to persuade Ye Ling, "Hey, hey… calm down. Killing me brings you no benefit, and I won't yield to the Wu Xing Demon God, don't worry!"
Ye Ling seemed to completely ignore the Realm Demon Spirit's words. The rune chains tightened frantically, and the embryo of the realm core was continuously squeezed, about to be crushed by the chains.
And the Realm Demon Spirit, having lost all his power, with his soul fused with the realm core, would die if Ye Ling destroyed the realm core embryo!
The Realm Demon Spirit: "Wait! We, we can negotiate. Your Demon Spirit Contract isn't un-optimizable!"
Ye Ling's killing intent was now resolute. He ignored the Realm Demon Spirit's words and increased the force of the rune chains again!
The embryo directly shattered, and the Realm Demon Spirit's soul began to dissipate, his life entering a countdown!
The Realm Demon Spirit: "I'll sign! I'll sign! Stop quickly!"
As soon as the Realm Demon Spirit said this, Ye Ling's smile returned. He immediately retracted the rune chains and presented the Demon Spirit Contract to the Realm Demon Spirit, "You are doing this voluntarily."
"I…"
The Realm Demon Spirit felt an urge to vomit blood at this moment, but he had no time to argue with Ye Ling. He immediately signed his name on Ye Ling's Demon Spirit Contract – Augu Hagong.
"Quick! I'm dying! Save me!"
After signing the Demon Spirit Contract, Augu Hagong, ignoring the grief of selling his soul, quickly shouted at Ye Ling.
Ye Ling was already prepared. After confirming his connection with Augu Hagong, he transferred the Realm Demon Spirit's power and some of his own mental energy to the Realm Demon Spirit.
"This power!"
Upon receiving Ye Ling's mental energy, the Realm Demon Spirit's pupils contracted sharply. However, he had no time to be shocked and immediately rushed out of the shattered embryo!
*Bang!!!*
The moment Augu Hagong emerged from the shattered embryo, the entire realm core exploded with a roar. Its violent power even sent the Wu Xing Demon God and the Fallen Dragon, who were locked in fierce combat, flying back!
Blinding light illuminated the Void Dark Plane. The Wu Xing Demon God's dream domain was blown open by the power of the realm core explosion, scattering numerous dream fragments.
At this moment, Vivian seized the opportunity and arrived at the edge of the Wu Xing Demon God's dream fragments. She saw Ye Ling in the center of the explosion, using the Realm Demon Spirit as a shield against the realm core's blast, and quickly shouted, "Boss! The Wu Xing Demon God's dream is about to break, hurry and come with me!"
Hearing Vivian's call, Ye Ling immediately grabbed the Realm Demon Spirit, who was trying to escape, and shouted to Vivian, "Pull me back to the Void!"
"Yes!"
Vivian quickly activated her abilities, transforming the Wu Xing Demon God's dream into reality in the Void. Ye Ling and the Realm Demon Spirit instantly vanished from the explosion's center.
At this time, the scarred Wu Xing Demon God rushed back. Seeing the realm core, which had already disappeared, his body trembled violently, and then he roared in fury, "Ye!!! Ling!!!"
