Chapter 617: 329: Consecutive Loss of Control
After a demon possesses another’s body, it cannot fully exert its strength and if unlucky, it might not even be able to exert half of its power.
The primary reason is that the new body cannot cultivate the Demon Scripture, thus unable to resist the invasion of demonic qi.
This divine ability “Divine Demon Life Gifting” on the other hand, transforms the possessed body through demonic qi, adapting it to oneself to achieve the goal of fully utilizing one’s strength.
“Adapting the possessed body to oneself, it’s indeed fitting for a demon that a divine ability like this can be created!”
Su Nan was astonished, this ability was indeed tailor-made for demons; getting its assistance was mandatory for the utilization.
Thankfully, Luo Yu was entirely under his control at this moment, and asking for his help seemed straightforward.
“Unfortunately, my second divine soul hasn’t manifested yet; otherwise, I would have liked to try it out right now.”
His avatar still needed the Blood Sacrifice Ritual. The timing was not right for transformation, but it didn’t prevent him from trying during his foreknowledge, even though he couldn’t try to cultivate in his avatar without the second divine soul.
In his plan, the transformed avatar could only be controlled by the second divine soul, otherwise, there was a high risk that it would corrode his own divine soul.
Looking at the task again, Su Nan sighed in relief. Among his tasks, he had to kill a demon, but now he couldn’t complete this task.
However, compared to tens of points of demon power, a living peak king-level demon held a greater value for him!
At this moment, Su Nan thought of something, turned his hand, and a storage ring appeared in his hand.
This was the storage ring that originally sealed the Curse of Demonic Thought!
[Mainline Task: The Curse of Demonic Thought]
[Task’s third ring: Completely annihilate the Demonic Thought]
[Task Difficulty: Five-star]
[Task Rewards: Spirit Grade Demon Sutra, Spirit Grade Bloodline, 45 demon power points, Technique Seeds, one Ancient Treasure]
[Task Countdown: 4 days.]
As the mission appeared before his eyes, Su Nan was attracted by the rewards.
Whether it was his strength or the strange demonic qi, he couldn’t complete this task before. But now, controlling a peak king-level demon, things could be different.
This mission was something he got when he reached the Spirit Level. Due to its involvement with demons, the mission’s level was exceedingly high, reaching a rare five-star.
However, because he obtained it at the Spirit Level, most of the rewards were of Spirit Level, but the Technique Seeds and Ancient Treasure were indeed valuable. If he could complete this task, the rewards would be immense.
“There are four days left in the countdown, it seems it’s not impossible to complete.”
Looking at Luo Yu, Su Nan’s thoughts raced.
It was a pity that he only had one turn of foreknowledge left for today. Otherwise, he would have liked to use foreknowledge.
Putting away the storage ring, Su Nan flipped his hand and took out the Cosmic ring: “From now on, you stay here. You are not allowed to come out without my command.”
Although Luo Yu was completely under his control, he didn’t yet qualify to enter the Mountain and Water Gourd. If the demonic qi contaminated the Mountain and Water Gourd, the loss would be significant.
After imprisoning Luo Yu in the Cosmic ring, Su Nan checked the time and logged out of the game.
Having spent seven to eight days in the Illusion Realm, returning to reality, looking at the familiar surroundings of the room, he felt as if everything was a world away.
He laid on the bed, enjoyed a good sleep.
When he woke up again, it was evening; time was around seven o’clock.
After enjoying his meal, Su Nan picked up his phone to log into the forum, ready to see if any particular events had happened in the past two days.
As soon as he entered the forum, he spotted an unread message.
The only person who could send him a message on the forum was Li Hao.
“Big Brother help me out! I am stuck in a relic and can’t get out.”
“Stuck?” Su Nan was puzzled, but after a brief thought, he understood what had happened.
Li Hao had gotten a mainline task that started with three-stars. According to his experience, the final task was probably a four-star task.
Li Hao being stuck was evidently due to that task.
He had thought of helping Li Hao when he left the Land of the Lost. To his surprise, before he could leave the Land of the Lost, Li Hao had already sought him out.
“What exactly happened?” Su Nan replied.
Li Hao didn’t seem to be online and didn’t reply to him immediately.
He did not wait and continued scanning the forum.
“Important notice, all players please note, do not attempt to break through to the Xuan-level without absolute confidence!”
A pinned post drew Su Nan’s attention. Surprisingly, the post was created by an official!
Seeing this post, Su Nan instantly understood what was happening.
Out of control, someone tried to break through to the Xuan-level but lost control.
Entering the post, it was exactly as he had thought, and it wasn’t just one person.
“Yesterday at Midnight, South Korea’s fifth-ranked player, ranked 109 on the Points ranking list, Zheng Zhe tried to break through to Xuan-level, failed, bloodline uncontrolled!”
“This morning at seven o’clock, Japan’s third-ranked player, ranked 45 on the Points ranking list, Kawashima Itsuro tried the same but failed, bloodline uncontrolled.”
“Today at 11:00 AM, Russia’s tenth-ranked player, ranked 210 on the Points ranking list, Narilia attempted the same and yet again failed, bloodline uncontrolled.”
Three players lost control of their bloodline, and all of them were top-level players.
Su Nan understood that at this point, the only ones who could meet the requirements for a breakthrough to the Xuan Level were these top-level players.
