Chapter 325 The Origin Secret Technique of [Miracle Fantasy]! Signing the 5th Overlord-Level Secret

Chapter 325 The Origin Secret Technique of [Miracle Fantasy]! Signing the Fifth Overlord-Level Secret Contract!

My mind was hazy, as if I had entered an endless gray fog.

At this moment, Xia Fa's mind was completely transformed into a glowing sphere, like someone who had dived into the deep sea and was trying to float upwards.

Rising, rising, on the gray, misty sea surface, a dark light was cast down, accompanied by dazzling starlight.

Finally, the luminous sphere that Xia Fa had transformed into broke through the gray fog and arrived at a place that resembled the cosmic starry sky. Beyond the cosmic starry sky was an even more vast and magnificent starry sky.

This is the Astral Spirit and the Astral Spirit Realm.

Now, having signed four overlord-level secret contracts and about to sign a fifth, Xia Fa no longer holds the same awe for the Star Spirit Realm as before.

Because the awe has disappeared, there is a greater sense of curiosity and a desire to explore.

He calmly gazed through his astral body at the boundless astral realm.

The phantom images of planets, or rather, projections of planets from the real world, are scattered throughout the Protoss Realm. Countless enormous "Protoss" resembling jellyfish, with sizes comparable to planets, are floating and drifting among them.

These Protoss are the most common "Star Sea Jellyfish" in the Protoss Realm. Although they have the status of rulers, they only have the instincts and consciousness of beasts and have extremely low intelligence. The extraordinary monarchs who have signed contracts with the Protoss Lords will basically not choose to contract with this kind of Protoss.

On the surface and inside the bodies of the star jellyfish, countless strange and mysterious spirits swam about, colorful and quite lively, like a group of small fish following a giant whale, except that the whale was in the form of a jellyfish.

The appearance of ghosts is often quite strange. Some look like an octopus tentacle, with eyes growing from the suckers, curiously looking around. Others look like saplings, using branches as limbs, happily running around on the star sea jellyfish.

As for other ghostly entities, they take the form of objects, eyeballs, limbs, and so on.

The appearance of the spirits was quite magical. Xia Fa immediately spotted a spirit shaped like a glass cup, with a watery eye inside and two lips below it. But it wasn't scary at all; instead, it looked like a sentient being from a fairy tale.

There were also car-shaped Protoss beings, using headlights as eyes, making "beep beep" sounds to drive away the sapling-like ghosts around them, seemingly annoyed by them.

Suddenly, a sinister white shadow drifted by, and many ghostly spirits and mysterious spirits avoided it, but the Star Sea Jellyfish was not afraid at all.

The white image looked exactly like the ghosts circulating in various horror stories on the streets and alleys; it was one of the "evil spirits," known as the Shadow of the Ghost.

In addition, Xia Fa also saw many "miscellaneous spirits". Miscellaneous spirits are the weakest and most easily overlooked beings in the Celestial Spirit Realm, but this often means they are harmless, somewhat like bacteria and small insects in the real world.

Some of these miscellaneous spirits look like a coin, others like a bottle cap, and still others are simply glass marbles. They mostly reside on the bodies of the Star Sea Jellyfish, seeking the protection of these enormous creatures.

Although the Star Sea Jellyfish is not very intelligent, it is still a dominant being and can still intimidate evil spirits such as ghostly shadows. These evil spirits often like to prey on weak secret spirits or miscellaneous spirits, but for some reason, they don't prey on ghostly spirits much.

Further beyond the phantom planets and the jellyfish of the starry sea, Xiafa could also vaguely see countless mysterious areas, like mysterious and colorful little worlds embedded in the universe.

Some are magnificent ancient castles, some are storm-swept deserts, and some are like fairy tale kingdoms made of toys.

These mysterious areas are collectively known as the "Star Spirit Ghost Lands," and are said to be the most mysterious places in the entire supernatural world. In the real world, only those mysterious forbidden zones can compare to them.

The Celestial Spirits are mysterious beings. Some were created by gods or Outer Gods, some were transformed from the corpses of unknown beings, and some existed in myths and legends. Some were even suspected to have been born from the spillover of divine power caused by the battle between the True Gods and the Great Old Ones.

Xia Fa's heart was filled with more and more curiosity and longing as he looked at it. Before, he did not dare to go to the Star Spirit Realm without permission. Of course, he still does not dare to go now, and he has never been there even once.

Aside from a Protoss jump when we first set sail from Rum City, which was carried by Captain Redboar's ship, that basically didn't count as a Protoss jump, as I didn't see anything clearly.

Once one becomes a god, one can roam freely in the Celestial Spirit Realm. Although one still cannot defeat beings of Outer God rank, Xia Fa is confident that he can still escape.

As for encountering the Cleaners in the Protoss Realm—well, being extra careful shouldn't be a problem.

Reluctantly withdrawing his gaze, Xia Fa's luminous sphere, formed from his mind, flew to the boundary between his mental body and his astral body, and then to one of the overlord-level secret contracts.

Now, the three overlord-level covenants, [Silver Throne], [Gate of Stars], and [Mystic Singularity], are basically in a state of complete fusion, yet they also exist independently, which is quite strange.

Only the [Miracle Fantasy] stands alone, seemingly surrounded by three overlord-level secret contracts, yet also subtly protected, like a monarch within an overlord-level secret contract.

However, the Silver Throne is also located at the center of the secret agreement, giving the impression that it is vying for the core position with the Miracle Fantasy.

Now that his knowledge of the occult has become more extensive, Xia Fa has a vague premonition.

That is, among the other nine hegemonic-level secret contracts, [Miracle Fantasy] does indeed hold the most unique position, even rivaling the status of the first hegemonic-level secret contract he signed, [Silver Throne]. However, the one that truly deserves the title of "Monarch" and "Emperor" among hegemonic-level secret contracts is probably the tenth secret contract, [Primordial Secret Explanation].

After all, the [Primordial Secret Explanation] is a supreme-level secret contract that no one has been able to sign from ancient times to the present, not even the nine great gods.

Perhaps, there's only one like it in the entire universe.

The exalted status and special circumstances of the [Ancient Secret Explanation] are self-evident.

If I were fortunate enough to sign the [Primordial Secret Manual], I fear that once it appeared at the intersection of my mental body and astral body, it would directly occupy the most dominant position, becoming the undisputed emperor among the overlord-level secret contracts.

Xia Fa was also very curious about what incredible or extremely powerful secret abilities the tenth secret contract [Primordial Secret Explanation] would have, or rather, what unimaginable changes it could bring to himself.

Fortunately, the Wise One gave him an "Ancient Capsule." After taking it in a month, he would have the opportunity to participate in the competition for the "Ancient Secrets." Oh wait, if you count the days, there are only twenty-seven days left.

"Twenty-seven days later—if I can snag [Eternal Critical Strike] in six days, I'll definitely be a god in twenty-seven days. At that point, there shouldn't be many people who can beat me, right?"

The righteous gods definitely won't try to steal it; they've already signed a hundred secret contracts, so there's no way they can sign any more.

As for the Outer Gods, that's unclear. However, there are still twenty-seven days left, so Xia Fa isn't too anxious.

After calming himself down and not dwelling on it any longer, Xia Fa's gaze swept towards the location of the overlord-level secret contract, 【Miracle Fantasy】.

On the huge secret document, all the cryptic texts had changed from black to a dreamlike color, indicating that he could understand it completely without having to study it.

This is the benefit of receiving the Miracle Assembly after fighting the Bronze Cleaner and praying to the Paradox Joker.

If it were anyone else, even the nine great gods, Xia Fa estimated that it would take them several years, even decades or centuries, to fully comprehend the secret text of the [Miracle Fantasy].

And I will understand it immediately!

Before entering the boundary between the mental body and the astral body, Xia Fa had already eaten a bellyful of jerky from a supreme-level supernatural creature. Therefore, he immediately began to advance his understanding.

Sure enough, understanding the "miracle fantasy" was exceptionally easy and smooth, with almost no obstacles.

1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12% — Okay, I'm not going to ramble anymore — 100%!

The moment he understood, Xia Fa immediately felt the Dominator-level supernatural creature jerky in his stomach being rapidly consumed, and it was gone in an instant.

After the jerky was used up, his extraordinary power began to be consumed and was depleted at an unimaginable speed.

The extraordinary power before him was exhausted, his whole body was drained, and what was about to be depleted was his life force. Just then, this draining stopped.

Immediately afterwards, that familiar feeling of mental storming returned to Xia Fa's mind, and this time it was more intense than ever before.

boom-!

His brain felt like it had been struck hard by a hammer. Almost instantly, he was forced out of his meditative state, and his mind and spirit returned to his body.

In his mind, it was as if a hurricane composed of countless blades was raging wildly, relentlessly scraping at the nerves in his head. The feeling of being cut by knives was amplified tens of thousands of times, violently tormenting Xia Fa.

After mastering the divine battle technique of "Pillar of Mind Storm" from "First History," Xia Fa thought he was already immune to mind storms.

But to his surprise, the pain this time was still beyond his expectations.

With his willpower pushed to the brink of collapse, Xia Fa finally couldn't hold back any longer. He clutched his head and rolled around on the beach, but he still gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound of pain.

Just as he was rolling around, suddenly, there was a crisp cracking sound, as if his head had crushed an egg of an unknown creature beneath the sand.

The eggshell shattered, and the egg liquid instantly transformed into a refreshing wave of seawater and the scent of grass and trees, seeping into his brain.

The intense pain, as if tens of thousands of blades were simultaneously cutting through the brain, was instantly calmed down. A cool sensation spread from the mind to the brainstem, then from the brainstem to the spine, and then from the spine to the entire body.

The pain completely disappeared, and an indescribable sense of comfort washed over his entire body. Covered in sweat, Xia Fa lay sprawled on the beach and let out a long breath.

Just then, a voice that didn't belong to him at all rang in his mind.

"It's reasonable that someone with a mere human body would almost be unable to withstand the pressure of trying to achieve 100% understanding of the [Miracle Fantasy] in order to master the original secret technique."

"Because it couldn't bear it, it's understandable that it rolled around on the ground in agony."

"And since the rolling sands originate from a small world extracted from reality, it's possible that they contain eggs laid by the 'Healing Tree Turtle.'"

"Then, it's entirely possible that while it was rolling around, its head accidentally crushed the eggs laid by the Divine Healing Tree Turtle."

"In this situation, the brain absorbed the egg liquid and gained the strongest healing power below the level of a true god in the entire universe, thus receiving treatment. It's a barely plausible coincidence."

Who? Who's speaking?

The voice sounded very much like his own, yet it carried a sense of detachment and sanctity, which immediately put Xiafa on alert.

Moreover, how could this voice know that I signed the [Miracle Fantasy], and also know that I had just completed the understanding progress of the [Miracle Fantasy]?

"Wait, something's not right—"

This is my own little world, and I can immediately sense any intrusion.

Besides, it's highly illogical that such a private matter as advancing the understanding of the secret contract could be known so clearly, and that the voice even knew that he was suffering greatly from a mental storm caused by his attempt to obtain the original secret technique.

Therefore, the only explanation is—

"Is this the effect of the original secret technique of [Miracle Fantasy]?"

The thought had just surfaced in my mind when, as the mental storm subsided, a string of knowledge emerged in a form that I could understand.

【Miracle Fantasy, Fundamental Techniques, and the Paper of Coincidence】

[If you want, you can achieve any coincidence you desire in just five steps.]

The higher the rank, the more steps are allowed, and the greater the chance of achieving a perfect coincidence.

These few simple words contain an astonishing amount of information.

Before Xia Fa could savor it, he discovered that at the boundary between his mental body and astral body, between the Overlord-level Secret Contract and the Advanced Secret Contract, there was an extra piece of rough linen paper!

Moreover, a strong premonition came over him, as if he could write the corresponding words on the linen paper as soon as he had a thought!

However, the linen paper only has six horizontal lines, which is equivalent to five paragraphs for writing a sentence.

In that instant, everything that had just happened seemed to converge into a single thread, and Xia Fa suddenly understood something.

"So—just when I had completely understood [Miracle Fantasy], I had already mastered the original secret technique corresponding to [Paper of Coincidence]?"

"Then, because I am not even a god, I was originally unable to bear the vast knowledge and information contained in the original secret technique of [Paper of Coincidence]. Therefore, I would either have my head explode or end up completely out of control."

"But at that moment, perhaps it was the instinct for survival that saved me. My subconscious used the [Paper of Coincidence] to create a Divine Healing Tree Turtle egg through the power of 'coincidence'—"

The Healing Tree Turtle is a supernatural being of Outer God rank, or rather, it cannot be called "a kind" because there is only "one" of it in the entire universe.

It is said that many medical secrets in the universe, such as the Healing Hand, the Master of Surgery, and the Herbalist, either originate from the Divine Healing Tree Turtle or are generated from its offspring.

As for how the Divine Healing Tree Turtle died—it seems to have been killed by an Old One, but before it died, it chose to burn its divine power to save humans and demi-humans on several inhabited planets who had been corrupted by the Old Ones and gone out of control.

Xia Fa had naturally read about the legend of the Divine Healing Tree Turtle in various occult books, but he never expected that the Divine Healing Tree Turtle would lay eggs, and that the eggs would have the strongest healing ability below the level of the true gods in the entire universe.

"Is this the original secret technique of the [Miracle Fantasy]? It directly created an egg of the Divine Healing Tree Turtle—"

Xia Fa thought to himself, "As expected of the overlord-level secret agreement that must be signed to become a true god."

However, he also understood that it was highly unlikely that the egg would hatch, which was why he was able to create it with his current strength of having signed four overlord-level secret contracts.

If an egg could hatch, then only an Outer God could create it.

Moreover, they must be Outer Gods who have signed the [Miracle Fantasy] agreement.

Oh no, it has to be an Outer God who has signed the [Miracle Fantasy] and mastered the original secret technique [Paper of Coincidence] — but the probability of that is extremely low, so low that it can be almost ignored.

Each of the overlord-level secret contracts corresponds to a thousand original techniques. Add to that the inherent rarity of overlord-level secret contracts like the [Miracle Fantasy]—Xia Fa suspects that he is probably the only one in the entire world who possesses the [Paper of Coincidence].

"Hmm, if I could really become an Outer God, I could create an egg of a Divine Healing Tree Turtle that could hatch, just to give the Nature Bee a companion —"

Xia Fa thought to himself jokingly, but he was also surprised by the unique nature of the [Miracle Fantasy].

It can only be said that this is truly a supreme-level secret contract that must be signed to become a true god. The original secret technique actually created a [Paper of Coincidence] directly at the boundary between his mental body and his astral body!

This is clearly a place where only secret contracts can appear!

However, upon further reflection, the "Paper of Coincidence" also originated from a secret agreement, which seems reasonable.

"I never imagined that attempting to master the fundamental secret technique of [Miracle Fantasy] with a human body that is not even close to being a god would be so dangerous—"

Xia Fa sighed, "Looking at it this way, the nine great gods probably signed the 'Miracle Fantasy' only after they reached the level of gods or even outer gods. It might even be the last one before they become gods."

That's why no one reminded him when he prayed to the Paradox Joker, because the Paradox Joker, the Silver Universe, and the First History probably didn't know about it.

Fortunately, I survived and even obtained this amazing original technique.

Previously, he thought that [Miracle Fantasy] didn't have any original secret techniques, but it seems that it does.

"So, what's next—"

Xia Fa sat up straight on the beach again. He was so excited that he didn't even bother to wash off the sand. He immediately took out the Overlord-level contract, 【Conditions Forever】.

With a flick of his other hand, Xia Fa took out the jerky of a Dominator-level supernatural creature from the pouch, and began to regulate his breathing while stuffing it into his mouth.

Soon, his spirit, will, and physical strength all returned to their peak. Xia Fa took a deep breath, constructed a red-silver star shell, and then summoned star bubbles within the red-silver star shell.

Even so, he still sprinkled a large handful of gold dust as usual, and very seriously distorted the flow of time and space before taking out a pure silver quill pen and the water from the Holy Spirit Spring.

"The fifth supreme-level secret contract —"

"To be the last one before God —"

Xia Fa's gaze sharpened, and after dipping his pure silver quill into the water of the Holy Spirit Spring, he wrote his name on this overlord-level secret contract without hesitation.

Summer, law.

This time, the moment he wrote his name down, Xia Fa was surprised to find that everything in the world appeared completely different in his eyes.

In the perception of spiritual intuition, the undulating waves in the sea outside the star bubble and the red and silver star shell seem to be able to be fixed in place if you can capture the slightest trace of them.

In the jungle, small flying insects can be anchored to three key points with just a thought, making them spin in the same place forever.

Not only that, everything in this world, whether it is the flow of elements, the caress of a breeze, the surge of an undercurrent—or even the passage of time and the shift of space, seems to be able to capture the key moments in some way and make them “eternal” in various senses.

However, before he could fully experience it, darkness suddenly enveloped him, completely engulfing him.

"We'll be able to see young miners again —"

This was Xia Fa's last thought before darkness swept in.

Crackling, crackling, crackling—

The sound of sparks exploding came from not far ahead, and Xia Fa opened his eyes again.

Perhaps because he had signed five overlord-level secret contracts, this time, he had a vaguely different feeling about this mysterious dark space.

This dark space—it didn't seem to be boundless, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.

It felt like being at the seaside, or in a house, or even in a dream.

Suddenly, in the far distance of the darkness, the familiar, colorful ocean reappeared, with countless iridescent points of light rising and falling within it.

"The Primordial Eternal Sea!"

Completely different from the previous times, this time, upon seeing the Primordial Eternal Sea, Xia Fa immediately felt an overwhelming and extremely strong desire.

Those floating points of light—they are all proof of eternity!

Xia Fa understood that any "certificate of eternity" is of one and only one kind, representing a unique authority in the universe.

In other words, whether it's [Eternal Chaos], [Eternal Fury], or the [Eternal Strike] that is about to emerge on the Baron Ocean, there is only one of each.

However, this Primordial Eternal Sea contains hundreds of [Eternal Certificates], which is like having a mountain of gold placed in front of you, but separated by a glass dome with the highest explosion-proof level.

"Wait, something's not right—"

Suddenly, Xia Fa felt a moment of mental confusion. In his spiritual intuition, he seemed to receive a call from some [certificates of eternity] in the Primordial Eternal Sea.

That call seemed to suggest that as soon as he entered the Primordial Eternal Sea, he could immediately and without hindrance absorb and contain all of these [things].

Same as the Eternal Certificate!

That was a yearning to merge into his body and become a part of him!

Xia Fa pondered it carefully and actually identified several of them.

"[Eternal Attack] ————"

"[Eternal Cultivation] ————"

"【Eternal Severance】————"

"【Eternal Replication】————"

"[Eternal Pain] ————"

But soon, these calls disappeared, seemingly completely blocked or absorbed by the Primordial Mithril Gate.

Xia Fa felt an itch, as if countless ants were crawling on him, but he couldn't scratch them. [Eternal Attack]?

【Eternal Severance】? That sounds incredibly powerful!

And then there's "eternal replication"—it sounds impressive but I don't really understand it.

When will I be able to break through the third Ancient Mithril Gate? — This extremely eager thought couldn't help but pop into Xia Fa's mind.

But just then, a figure emerged from the campfire in the darkness not far ahead.

The figure had no facial features; its face was as smooth as an egg. Yet, it wore a miner's hat and a pale yellow miner's uniform.

It was that extremely mysterious young miner who called himself the "Absolute Defense" who had lost his power.

It seemed as if He had gone somewhere, or as if He had just returned from the edge of darkness, which is why He did not appear immediately at first.

"Another one has arrived. Interesting. Who could it be this time? Or is it a new little one—"

The young miner muttered something, then turned around and looked this way.
