Chapter 682: Chapter 481: The Evil God’s Curse_2

"It’s an Evil God contract."

Afterwards, a woman in a robe with golden hair and blue eyes slowly walked over: "Wei has signed an Evil God contract. The contract is valid for seventy-two hours, and during these seventy-two hours, the power of the Evil God contract will protect this building from being harmed. Those evil objects dare not enter here, otherwise they will be destroyed by the power of the Evil God. However, as a price, the Evil God will strip the contractor’s soul and occupy their body once the contract expires."

"Hello Li Yi, my name is Mei Ling."

The woman then greeted warmly as well.

Li Yi nodded and then said: "So how much time is left on the contract now?"

"It should be less than three hours," said Mei Ling.

Li Yi then glanced at Yang Wei in the distance: "So, does that mean he will die in three hours?"

"No, Wei is special. He can avoid the cost of the Evil God contract. This is already the second Evil God contract he has used. He used one before, and when the Evil God’s power descended, it didn’t take his soul; instead, he repelled it." Hai Li said seriously.

"I see." Although Li Yi did not understand entirely, he could somewhat guess.

It should be due to some spiritual energy."

"What’s your plan next?" Li Yi then said, "Three hours is not long, it will soon pass with some rest. By that time, without the protection of the Evil God contract, this building will quickly be overrun by evil objects, and then it will be another crisis."

"Wei said you might have a way, so we’d like to seek your advice." Mei Ling’s light blue eyes looked at Li Yi with some hope.

Li Yi was startled for a moment, but before he could speak, Xuan Yuezi said: "The Purple Gold Gourd has its own Grotto Heaven, which can shelter hundreds of people without a problem. You can put all the injured people inside, then break out of this darkness, and release them once it’s safe."

"Good idea. I previously used the Purple Gold Gourd to hold the injured Good Wings, so it should work for people too."

Li Yi nodded and then took out the Purple Gold Gourd and briefly explained some details to Hai Li and Mei Ling.

Their eyes lit up upon seeing the Purple Gold Gourd, immediately showing excitement.

"With such a treasure, we have no problem escaping this darkness. I’ll go tell the others this good news." Mei Ling and Hai Li then left happily, desperately needing hope; otherwise, the crushing burden of hopelessness would weigh them down even before the monsters attacked.

As the method of survival spread, the previously lifeless crowd became active and excited. Accompanied by the uninterrupted work of the Life Repair Cabin, their injuries were healed, and soon everyone was full of confidence in survival.

During this time, Li Yi studied the Purple Gold Gourd.

Although this Dao Artifact’s Spiritual Energy was exhausted, unable to return to its peak, and its Grotto Heaven wasn’t large, it could still accommodate three thousand people. Any more would exceed the Grotto Heaven’s limit and would be unable to sustain everyone’s survival.

Grotto Heaven Dao Artifacts are different from Storage Taoist Artifacts, which simply need a large space. This is easy to achieve, but a Grotto Heaven is equivalent to a small world that needs to be maintained, which is very troublesome. Sunlight, air, water, etc., are indispensable, so expanding a Grotto Heaven is difficult.

The Purple Gold Gourd, even not at its peak, can maintain a Grotto Heaven capable of accommodating three thousand people, which is already quite remarkable. In the Cultivation World, it’s enough to hold the disciples of a sect.

After about two hours of rest, everyone had recovered from their injuries.

"Li, I’ve formed a temporary team. You put the others into the Purple Gold Gourd, and in half an hour, we’ll leave this building and break out of this darkness." At this moment, Yang Wei came over, followed by several strong individuals.

Yu Chuan, Ning Wu, Hai Li, Mei Ling, and several other powerful adventurers were among them.

Li Yi glanced and said: "Waiting for the next train is the safest. The creatures in the darkness are not as simple as imagined. Even though their strength is considerable, breaking through will be tough."

"Many things are achieved through effort, how can we know without trying? Moreover, there’s no time to wait for the next train; this building is reaching its limit, and if we don’t leave, we’ll be trapped here." Yang Wei said.

"If we must break through, I suggest everyone hide in the Purple Gold Gourd, and the Immortal and I will fight our way out." Li Yi said, "The more people there are, the greater the casualties."

"Do you think I’m not as strong as you and can’t break through?" Yang Wei said.

Li Yi said, "Just a suggestion, it’s up to you. Anyway, it doesn’t matter to me; since I’m here, I’m destined to be involved."

It’s not that he doubted Yang Wei’s strength; it’s that there was no need to go head-to-head with the monsters in the darkness. With sufficient speed, they could escape without engaging the monsters directly.

But with too many people, it would be different; they would surely attract the attention of the monsters.

No one could predict what might happen then.

Yang Wei, pondering at this moment, understood Li Yi’s point. Rather than having everyone risk it, it might be better to let a few strong individuals escape with the Purple Gold Gourd.

However, Li Yi’s method also carried risks.
