Chapter 315 The New Pawnshop

After listening to Zhou Yongcheng's words, Han Nuo hesitated, unsure whether he should believe this mysterious Taoist priest.

After all, the only person in this world who could free them from the control of the Dark Lord was the mysterious Taoist priest in front of them; no one else had the ability to deal with the Dark Lord.

"We don't need to sign any contract with you, Daoist Master, do we?" Han Nuo asked.

Just as Zhou Yongcheng had thought, Han Nuo was also afraid that he had just escaped one danger only to fall into another.

Zhou Yongcheng laughed and said, "I have traveled through all the heavens and the myriad worlds, and I have never controlled any one person."

He's been to so many worlds, mostly to change them and control others, but he disdains doing that.

Upon hearing Zhou Yongcheng's suggestion, Han Nuo agreed.

Zhou Yongcheng added, "Let me add something else. After my reform, the evil power on the pawnshop owner cannot exceed a certain amount. Once the evil karma becomes too heavy, he will lose control of the pawnshop and will also be punished by the pawnshop."

Han Nuo doesn't care about the evil forces and punishments Zhou Yongcheng mentioned; he only cares about not being controlled by others.

After explaining the rules of the new pawnshop to Han Nuo and the others, Zhou Yongcheng took action to reform the pawnshop.

The true owner of Pawnshop No. 8 is the Dark Lord, who has a clone in each pawnshop in order to control the pawnshops.

The power of the Divine Transformation Realm is immense; apart from the subordinates of the Lord of Light, no one in the mortal realm can rival it.

But none of that mattered to Zhou Yongcheng. He annihilated the Dark Lord's sliver of consciousness and cleared the pawnshop of all its permissions.

The pawnshop was re-refined.

Zhou Yongcheng's series of actions happened in an instant.

Although Pawnshop No. 8 is known as a divine artifact in this world, it is not even a post-natal spiritual treasure; at best, it is a top-grade immortal artifact.

After Zhou Yongcheng's renovation, the pawnshop's quality, while not quite reaching the level of a supreme innate treasure, certainly reached the level of an innate spiritual treasure.

In this world, innate spiritual treasures have already surpassed the world's upper limit. The innate spiritual treasures of the two dominant figures in this world are only at the acquired spiritual treasure level.

After reforming the pawnshop, Zhou Yongcheng restricted many of its functions. To unlock all of the pawnshop's functions, one could only use merit.

Zhou Yongcheng added features such as the Destiny Stele, the Karma Mirror, the Reincarnation Tower, and the Boundary Gate to the pawnshop.

The Destiny Tablet can see a person's fate. As long as someone enters the pawnshop, the Destiny Tablet can see everything about that person clearly.

Examine cause and effect from the perspective of cause and effect.

The Reincarnation Stele is used to punish evildoers and to benefit those who have performed meritorious deeds.

The boundary gate is for going to other worlds.

Many functions are hidden and will only be unlocked by the pawnshop owner.

"I have completely renovated the pawnshop and added many new features. You will have to discover them yourselves."

I'm giving you access to the pawnshop; for now, you only have basic access.

Besides what you can control, the pawnshop also has a spirit at its core. It is the central hub of the pawnshop, and only by contacting it and gaining its approval can you be considered the true owner of the pawnshop.

Whether you can gain the pawnshop's spirit's approval depends on how you manage the pawnshop.

Han Nuo and Chen Jing sensed that Zhou Yongcheng had broken free from the control of the Dark Lord when he was reforming the pawnshop.

When Zhou Yongcheng gave Han Nuo the authority over the new pawnshop, Han Nuo sensed the current state of the new pawnshop.

Based on the information provided by the pawnshop, the new pawnshop is more powerful than the original one, with more basic functions.

In the past, pawnshops only provided customers with material goods. Now, as long as the pawned items have value, pawnshops can produce anything the customer wants. There is nothing a pawnshop cannot do, only things people can't imagine.

The pawnshop functions that Han Nuo saw were only the basic functions; many functions were still locked, so he was unaware of them.

If he knew everything about the pawnshop, I wonder how shocked he would be.

Han Nuo and Chen Jing bowed deeply to Zhou Yongcheng to express their gratitude.

Zhou Yongcheng not only gave them a new life, but also bestowed upon them an incredibly powerful pawnshop.

In the realm of gods, the Dark Lord, who was in seclusion, suddenly spat out a mouthful of divine blood.

One of his avatars was destroyed, and the most serious injury was to his soul.

Damage to the soul is difficult to repair in a short period of time.

The Dark Lord's thoughts raced, and he quickly realized that Pawnshop No. 8 had lost control.

After leaving the Dark Temple, the Dark Lord headed towards the Eighth Pawnshop World.

But as soon as he opened the passage to the lower realm, the Lord of Light appeared and blocked the Lord of Darkness.

"Darkness, where are we going?" The Lord of Light smiled warmly.

Upon seeing the Lord of Light, the Lord of Darkness felt a sense of foreboding.

His soul is currently damaged, which has a significant impact on his cultivation level. If they were to fight, he doesn't know if he could be a match for the Lord of Light.

"I didn't go anywhere, I just wanted to go down to the lower realms to take a look," the Dark Lord said calmly.

He couldn't let the Lord of Light notice anything amiss, and he tried his best not to reveal any flaws.

"Is that so? Is there a problem with the pawnshop you put in the lower realm to harvest souls? I want to go down and take a look." The Lord of Light looked at the Lord of Darkness with a half-smile.

The two were evenly matched in strength, and their attributes countered each other. Whoever was stronger would suppress the other. Countless eras had passed, and their strength remained consistent. Neither dared to slack off, fearing that the other would surpass them and ultimately annihilate them.

The Lord of Light keeps a close eye on the Lord of Darkness, and he is generally aware of any of the Lord of Darkness's movements.

Countless eras have passed, and the Dark Lord has rarely descended to the mortal realm, unless the pawnshop he ran ran into trouble.

"What a joke! The pawnshop I created is incredibly powerful. Even your subordinates can't find it. Who in the lower realms would dare to covet my pawnshop?" the Dark Lord said disdainfully.

"Is that so? Then tell me why I descended to the mortal realm. We haven't fought for so many years. I want to see if the Dark Lord has improved his control over the laws of darkness."

After the Lord of Light finished speaking, a pillar of light composed of the laws of light attacked the Lord of Darkness.

The Lord of Darkness was prepared for the Lord of Light. When the Lord of Light made his move, he vanished from his spot and returned to his temple.

"I don't want to fight today. I'll find you another day and have a good, satisfying fight."

The voice of the Dark Lord echoed in the ears of the Light Lord.

Looking at the spot where the Dark Lord had disappeared, the Light Lord seemed to be deep in thought. In the past, whenever he made the first move, the Dark Lord would definitely retaliate. This time, however, the Dark Lord actually slipped away first.

This alerted the Lord of Light to something amiss, but unfortunately, the Lord of Darkness had already returned to the Dark Temple.

The Dark Temple is the place where the laws of darkness are most concentrated, just as his Temple of Light is the place where the laws of light are most concentrated.

Those gods whose attributes are mutually exclusive dare not enter the temple of their opponent, for fear of being killed by them.

The Lord of Light also didn't go to the Dark Temple, so he felt it was a bit of a pity.

The Dark Lord returned to the temple. Luckily, he ran fast. If the Light Lord had used the Law of Light to seal off that area, his escape would have been quite difficult.

However, he dares not leave the Dark Temple now, because if he runs away, the Lord of Light will definitely notice.

From now on, the Lord of Light will definitely keep a close eye on him, even more so than before.

He needs to repair his damaged soul first, otherwise he won't dare to leave the temple.
