Chapter 28
“I’ve had this golden booklet for three hundred years, and I’ve studied it countless times and tried countless methods. Unfortunately, times have changed, and this ancient scripture is destined not to be cultivated successfully.”
“But you’re different, you’re an Outsider, and most importantly, you’ve been recognized by the Technique Seeds, so you might have a chance to cultivate the ancient scripture.”
“If one day you can truly cultivate this ancient scripture, you must promise me that you will cleanse the demons from this world and return a bright and clear world to humanity.”
Su Nan solemnly nodded and said, “Senior, rest assured, if I ever cultivate this ancient scripture, I will make it my duty to slay demons and return a piece of heaven and earth to my people.”
Even without the old man saying it, he would do the same, because demons are a source of Demon Power for him!
The old man nodded, his voice gradually became low, “Go, I will soon completely lose control and seal myself here to prevent becoming a monster controlled by evil energy. Do not come back here again.”
“Senior, farewell!”
Su Nan bowed to the old man and turned to leave the prison cell.
Just as he left the cell and closed the prison door, the prompt for completing the task appeared.
[Congratulations, you have completed the three-star task “Explore Cell No. 30”, 15 Demon Points reward has been issued.]
[Current available demonic power: 17 points]
“Finally, it’s done.”
He breathed a sigh of relief. This three-star task is crucial to whether he can continue hunting demons and gaining Demon Power.
There’s only one demon left in this Prison that he can kill, and the Demon Power gained from hunting demons isn’t enough to bring the Iron Ape Sutra to Perfection.
If the Iron Ape Sutra isn’t perfected, it would be difficult for him to hunt other demons, thus falling into a vicious cycle.
But now it’s different. With 17 Demon Points, he can bring the Iron Ape Sutra to Perfection. Although it’s still hard to continue hunting other demons, there’s hope.
“Let me see what’s so special about this ancient scripture!”
He took out the golden booklet containing the ancient scripture, and this time, he did not hesitate to use it.
Golden light flowed, and a ray of light shot out from the booklet and entered his mind. Immediately, the little golden booklet lost all its luster, its surface corroded and rusty.
At the same time, his Personal Information Panel changed.
In between the bloodline and technique columns, an ancient scripture column appeared.
[Ancient Scripture: Life Wheel Scripture (Not yet started)]
[Lack of cultivation conditions, unable to cultivate]
“Can’t cultivate?”action
Su Nan wasn’t too surprised; lacking cultivation conditions and unable to cultivate was within his expectations.
If it were so easy to cultivate, the old man would have done it long ago, and wouldn’t have left it for him.
He didn’t give up, though, and still planned to try cultivating according to the method recorded in the ancient scripture.
However, soon after, he stopped cultivating.
It felt completely different from cultivating the Demon Sutra; there was no response from the ancient scripture within his body.
Undoubtedly, he couldn’t cultivate this ancient scripture either.
“The old man said that after the Ancient World shattered, it was impossible to cultivate the ancient scripture in this world. It must be a problem with this world.”
“What would happen if I tried to cultivate it in the real world?”
Su Nan suddenly thought of a method, and his eyes couldn’t help but light up.
Since the Demon Sutra could circulate in the real world, there was no reason why the ancient scripture couldn’t.
What if the ancient scripture, which couldn’t be cultivated in this world, could actually work in the real world?
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but want to quit the game and experiment.
However, he soon restrained himself, as he still had tasks left to complete today.
“Let’s finish hunting the demons first.”
Putting aside the issue of the ancient scripture, he turned his attention to the Iron Ape Sutra on his Personal Information Panel.
With a thought, a full 16 points of demon power vanished.
As the bloodline surged within his body, Su Nan could clearly sense the increase in his strength.
The Iron Ape Sutra was finally perfected!
Next, all that is left is the awakening of the bloodline combat technique.
The awakening of the bloodline combat technique couldn’t really help him increase his strength, but it was an effective way to enhance his fighting prowess.
His foreknowledge opportunity for today was gone, so he couldn’t do any more foresight.
Fortunately, his previous foresight had already told him that as long as his strength could be increased again, he would be able to deal with that demon.
Now he had already met that condition.
Directly entered Cell 42.
A few minutes later.
Su Nan left Cell 42.
The task was completed without doubt, and 5 demon power points were added to his account, leaving him with a total of 6 demon power points.
“Quit Game.”
In his bedroom, he climbed out of the game warehouse.
He glanced at the time, it hadn’t even been ten minutes since he entered the game, and it was still just after eight o’clock, not yet nine o’clock.
“There’s still plenty of time, let’s see whether I can practice the Life Wheel Scripture or not.” He was a bit impatient.
The cultivation method of the Life Wheel Scripture was completely different from that of the Demon Sutra. The essence of the Demon Sutra was to enhance one’s bloodline, while the Life Wheel Scripture was to cultivate one’s obscure destiny.
Su Nan didn’t know what destiny was, he could only follow the cultivation method according to the Life Wheel Scripture.
“Huh?”
Just as he began to practice the technique, he suddenly realized something was off.
While practicing in the game, he felt that he was just making useless efforts, and there was no response from the technique.
But when practicing in reality, he immediately felt the difference; his body underwent inexplicable changes.
“It’s possible! The Life Wheel Scripture can really be practiced in the real world!” Su Nan was surprised and delighted.
Without thinking too much, he continued to follow the ancient scripture’s method to cultivate, intending to give it his all to try to reach the beginner level of this ancient scripture.
As the ancient scripture continued to operate within his body, slowly, his body began to undergo bizarre changes.
An hour later.
Su Nan stood up, his face full of disbelief.
His strength had doubled!
“This is not the growth brought about by the Life Wheel Scripture, the Life Wheel scripture doesn’t have strength enhancement effects.”
“It’s the bloodline!”
He clearly felt that at this moment, there were two bloodline powers within his body; one was the Mountain Elephant Bloodline, and the other was the Iron Ape Bloodline.
The two bloodlines were about equal in terms of strength enhancement.
Keep in mind that the Mountain Elephant Bloodline only appeared in his real life after awakening the bloodline combat technique.
But the Iron Ape Bloodline was only at perfection, and it hadn’t even awakened the bloodline yet, so it shouldn’t have appeared in his body at this time.
However, here it was.
This was the effect of the Life Wheel Scripture!
The Life Wheel Scripture completely integrated his in-game power into his body, no longer restricted by bloodline awakening.
“Does this mean that as long as I gain a bloodline in the game, my real-life body can immediately use it?”
If that’s true, then the Life Wheel Scripture is too powerful.
He continued to carefully sense the changes in his body.
He noticed, in a daze, a huge wheel within his body, slowly spinning. The wheel was divided into three circles from the inside out.
The innermost circle radiated a faint glow, while the middle and outer circles were strange, not only without any brightness but also like an illusion, faintly visible.
“What is this thing?” Su Nan wondered.
The Life Wheel Scripture only had the cultivation method, but it didn’t have any other introductions, so he didn’t know the specific abilities of the ancient scripture.
“Log back into the game and check, maybe the game will know what this is.”
Logging into the game once more, he immediately opened the Personal Information Panel.
