Chapter 533: Chapter 287: Disturbance in the 0cean_2
What he didn’t expect was the ability of the Purple-eyed Demon bloodline, which could render the recovering power of the Star-devouring Demonic Beast unusable.
“I wonder what racial talent I can attain by merging with this bloodline.”
Su Nan anticipated.
The foreknowledge was still ongoing and hadn’t ended.
However, seeing the last information from the foreknowledge, Su Nan felt a sinking heart.
[Sadly, due to the influence of misfortune, you failed to acquire the racial talent from the bloodline.]
“Misfortune!”
Sun Nan’s face turned sour, he didn’t expect that misfortune would also impact his bloodline fusion.
Previously, with the blessing of immense Qi Luck, every time he fused with an ancient demon bloodline, he would attain racial talent. This made him momentarily overlook the fact that fusing with an ancient demon bloodline does not necessarily yield racial talent.
He felt relieved.
Earlier, foreknowledge hinted at a possible successful fusion but did not mention his inability to obtain racial talent due to misfortune.
Had he not had that foreknowledge and directly fused with the bloodline, he would have suffered a great loss.
After all, when it comes to ancient demon bloodlines, racial talent is of utmost importance.
“Forget it, I can only wait for two days before trying to fuse again.”
Sighing, Su Nan put away the ancient demon corpse.
“Now it’s time to go to the palace.”
With a thought, his features morphed, transforming into an ordinary commoner, and he headed towards the Daxuan Royal Palace.
He was sure that the second phase of the “Path of the Lord” mainline task must involve the Divine Soul Baptism.
Looking at the current situation, he couldn’t pass the Divine Soul Baptism.
However, this didn’t affect his actions for today.
Following the sequence of the foreknowledge, he waited for the appearance of the four guards. After obtaining the mark from them, he swiftly entered the palace and captured the Fourth Prince silently.
The prince was a young man of similar age to Su Nan and at the peak of the Mortal Level.
However, this guy was clearly a pampered aristocrat. When Su Nan found him in his bedroom, he was having fun with a group of maidservants.
“Who are you!”
Outside the palace, the Fourth Prince looked at Su Nan and the Great Princess in surprise and anger, never expecting that someone could sneak into the palace, which was enveloped in a formation, and quietly catch him.
“You don’t need to know who we are. If you want to live, there’s only one way. I need your essence and blood,” said Su Nan.
“Essence and Blood? Impossible!”
The Fourth Prince was puzzled, not understanding what Su Nan needed his essence and blood for, but he had a strong foreboding that something bad was about to happen.
“Refuse? Then you can die now.” A flame appeared in his hand, and Su Nan made it look like he was going to kill the Fourth Prince.
Of course, he was only trying to intimidate the Fourth Prince.
Sure enough, seeing Su Nan about to act, the Fourth Prince became scared.
More than ten minutes later.
Su Nan got the essence and blood. With the help of Thousand Changes and Ten Thousand Transmutations and Pseudo-Breath Stone, his appearance turned into that of the Fourth Prince and his realm turned into the Peak of Mortal Level.
“What is this ability?” The Great Princess was surprised.
She had seen many of Su Nan’s strange abilities before, but it was her first time seeing Su Nan change appearances.
“Was that Wolf Demon also your transformation?”
Recalling the past, the Great Princess finally understood what happened.
Su Nan just smiled without explaining.
“You, how can you transform into me!” The Fourth Prince was horrified, seeing Su Nan, who looked exactly like him, his heart turned icy cold.
The Great Princess looked at the Fourth Prince and said, “What should we do with him? Kill him?”
Su Nan had a thought and asked, “How can one forcibly read another person’s memory?”
In the foreknowledge, it was suggested that the Great Princess forcefully read the Fourth Prince’s memory, but reading it would also mean the memory was in the Great Princess’s mind. He could only know what he wanted to know through the Great Princess, which was far less convenient than reading it himself.
When he heard his sentence, the Fourth Prince looked as pale as a ghost, desperation written all over his face.
“Forceful memory reading does not require any secret techniques. It only requires strong Divine Soul Power. The stronger the soul of the subject, the stronger the Divine Soul required,” said the Great Princess.
“His realm is only at the Peak of Mortal Level, and he is not a martial artist who specializes in the Secret Power System of Divine Soul. With your power of Divine Soul, it should be quite easy to read his memory.”
“I see.” Su Nan nodded in understanding.
Then, the Great Princess taught him the technique of forceful memory reading.
Accoring to the Great Princess, everyone had a mysterious core region in their Divine Soul. If one’s Divine Soul Power could break through the other party’s Divine Soul and enter that core region, one could see everything that the other party had experienced from birth to the present.
Of course, there are some limitations. The stronger the other party’s Divine Soul, the less one can see when force reading the memory.
Following the method taught by the Great Princess, Su Nan tried to read the memory.
Sure enough, after his powerful Divine Soul forcefully broke through the Fourth Prince’s Divine Soul, everything the Fourth Prince had experienced, like scenes in a slide show, quickly surfaced before his eyes.
The realm of the Fourth Prince was not high, his Divine Soul was far inferior to Su Nan’s. This time, he saw a lot.
Unfortunately, the realm of the Fourth Prince was too low, and the useful information he knew was scarce, almost nonexistent.
But Su Nan didn’t mind. After all, he only wanted the Fourth Prince’s memory to prevent his disguise from being exposed later.
After obtaining the memory, Su Nan entered the royal palace.
Two hours later.
The Great Temple.
“Big brother, I heard this trial is extremely dangerous, and we are likely to die. Is it true?” asked a young man, a few years Su Nan’s junior, in a trembling voice.
About to speak, the First Prince opened his mouth, but was immediately reprimanded in a low voice by an old man “Silence. No one is allowed to speak out of turn within the temple.”
The others looked serious, daring not to say anything more.
“For now, you don’t need to do anything. As long as you are here until sunrise tomorrow, you will have passed the test,” the old man said gravely.
With the candles extinguished, he left the temple.
With the closing of the temple’s doors, the temple sank into complete darkness.
Su Nan dared not delay any longer, and used Across the Heavens Shift to leave the temple at once.
“This is a good time to complete the task.”
Looking at the tasks on his panel, Spirit Descent was activated on his avatar, and he began to control the avatar, taking out the martial artists from various families who were hunting him.
Apart from Wang Nan having a four-star “explore the Daxuan Palace” task, the other two roles had two one-star tasks and one two-star task.
The one-star tasks corresponded to the thirty two families naturally, and the two-star tasks corresponded to the Ten Great Families who dispatched Xuan- level experts.
The avatar made a move. With the strength of mid-stage Spirit-level, it was “barely” able to face the onslaught of many martial artists. A few times, it was almost heavily injured, and was almost caught by two Xuan-level experts, only managing to escape with some good luck.
Finally, making use of its “advantage” in speed, the avatar was able to eliminate the martial artists of the various families while evading their attacks.
With the tasks of the three roles completed, 150 points of Demon Power were credited into his account!
“The usable demonic power has reached 191 points. That’s not bad. From the current situation, I should be able to do another round of tasks tomorrow, and maybe even the day after tomorrow.”
Su Nan was quite satisfied. Even in the outside world, gaining 150 points of Demon Power was not all that easy.
Now that the various families had yet to realize the seriousness of the situation, as long as they continued to hunt for his avatar, he would be able to continue with his tasks.
“Based on the predictions yesterday, my avatar will be passing by Black Demon Lake today. I’ll have to change direction and go around it.”
Although he did not know why the creature in Black Demon Lake was keeping an eye on him, avoiding the lake should prevent any problems from occurring.
Looking at the sky, it was currently the dog hour in the game, and it was already 8 am in reality.
Not willing to waste time, he had his avatar transform into a bird hidden amongst the trees, and promptly logged out of the game.
After eating breakfast and setting his alarm, he fell into deep sleep.
When he woke up, it was 3 pm, and there were still a few hours until sunrise in the game.
With nothing to do, Su Nan, as usual, picked up his phone and unlocked it.
What surprised him was that as soon as he opened up the forum, a hotly reposted and liked post appeared before his eyes.
“Breaking News: Satellites from various countries have detected upheaval in the ocean, with a large number of demon creatures gathering in the Mariana Trench of the Pacific.”
