In the darkness, the Copper Oil Lamp emitted a blurred light, and on the stone table lay a blue-green glove, seemingly made of bronze, yet resembling steel.
Shale’s eyes lit up at the sight of the glove, and he wanted to rush over to grab it.
However, Li Xiu, who had followed with the Trial Badge, held him back and said, "Hold on a mont, the contract also varies in quality, you should ask what its quality is first."
"Ask who?" Shale asked, puzzled.
"The Copper Oil Lamp," Li Xiu replied.
With a mix of belief and doubt, Shale looked at the Copper Oil Lamp and asked, "What is the na of this contract, and what is its quality?"
A strange voice resonated from the Copper Oil Lamp: "Its na is Overlord Gloves, and it is of Radiant Grade."
"There are four grades: Lustrous, Shining, Radiant, and Glowing, with Radiant just below Glowing. Whether to choose it or wait for a better Symbiotic Contract is up to you. Once a Symbiotic Contract is chosen, it can’t be changed," Li Xiu explained so basics to Shale.
"Is the probability of getting a Glowing Contract high?" Shale asked again.
"That depends on luck," Li Xiu replied, not knowing the exact probability of encountering a Glowing Contract.
"Then there’s no need to wait," said Shale as he walked up to the stone table and forcefully picked up the glove with both hands.
As the glove left the table, it burst into blue-green light, with streaks of blue-green light patterns extending from the wrist up to the palm, finally dispersing to the five fingers.
A bright "Overlord" character pattern erged on the back of the glove, its light radiantly dazzling like the stars.
"Insignificant carbon-based lifeform, use your blood to form a life bond with the Overlord Gloves, from now on, it will be your companion in life and death, your cornerstone on the path of trials..."
Without hesitation, Shale let his blood drip onto the Overlord Gloves. The Overlord Gloves transford into a stream of blue-green light, rging into his right hand, and soon reappeared, encasing his right hand.
"I have finally beco a true Trial Taker," Shale exclaid excitedly, waving his right hand.
"What is your Primordial Embryo Quality?" Li Xiu asked.
"Point nine, is that high or low?" Shale replied.
"It’s first-class; generally, the highest is just point nine," Li Xiu said with a smile.
"Haha, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. If I had gotten the ticket earlier, my Primordial Embryo Quality probably wouldn’t be so high," Shale said enthusiastically.
At that mont, the Copper Oil Lamp floated up on its own, drifting into the depths of the darkness.
Li Xiu hastily called Shale to follow the Longevity Lamp into the dark, and as they walked, the scenery before their eyes changed, and there was light.
"What is this place?" Shale asked in amazent, looking around.
"This should be an oasis," Li Xiu had already surveyed the surroundings.
They were situated in a small oasis, able to see from one side of the oasis to the other at a glance.
In the center of the oasis was a stone-built pool, with a few dilapidated wooden huts beside it, and around the oasis was a circle of wooden stake fencing.
Each wooden stake was carved into a pointed tip, standing just over a ter tall. The entire oasis had a wooden gate made from the fence in only one direction, but it was damaged. The wooden bars of the gate had all co apart, scattered outside the gate in a ss.
While the two were examining the small oasis settlent, a bell sound suddenly ca from outside the gate.
The two quickly ran to the entrance to look into the desert outside, and the bell’s sound ca from sowhere distant in the desert.
But everywhere outside were sand dunes, blocking their view. They could only hear the bell without seeing what it was.
Li Xiu imdiately summoned the Jedi Knight and Love God Shooter, placing the Jedi Knight to guard the entrance, while the Love God Shooter stayed behind, gripping her bow and waiting for the opportunity.
"What the heck, what are these?" Shale asked, wide-eyed, staring at the Jedi Knight and Love God Shooter.
"These are the demon spirits from the Demon Spirit Ring, similar to Sha Chu’s demon spirit that you saw before. The Trial Taker can use..." Li Xiu explained how to acquire and use the Demon Spirit Ring, and by the way, briefed Shale on Skill Rings and Talent Gemstones.
"I never knew being a Trial Taker was this cool, but why haven’t I seen other Trial Takers use demon spirits, and Kun Sha doesn’t have them either?" Shale wondered aloud.
"The drop rate for Demon Spirit Rings is quite low. To obtain them requires a bit of luck," Li Xiu said with a smile.
"Looks like you’ve got so good luck, getting two demon spirits in such a short ti. What level are these within the demon spirits?" Shale asked, a bit envious, looking at the Jedi Knight and Love God Shooter.
"Just average. The Jedi Knight doesn’t have a quality rating, but it can evolve and is now a C-grade demon spirit. Love God Shooter is Radiant Quality, can also evolve, but I haven’t nurtured her yet, so she’s still at E-level," Li Xiu explained.
Shale was about to ask sothing else, but the bell sound had grown closer, as a figure slowly erged from behind a nearby sand dune.
Soon, they could clearly see what appeared on the hill. It was a demon spirit with a body like a green stone statue, resembling a lion, but without mane on its neck. Instead, there were semicircular protrusions on its head, resembling the topknot of a Buddha.
It had three claws at the front and one at the back, with a bell resembling green jade hanging from its neck, emitting a faint glow. Its body size was slightly larger than a lion, comparable to a grown bull.
