I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World - Chapter 529
Chapter 529: Chapter 285 The Great Temple’s Test_2
[You are not satisfied and decide to start with the mark to separate their marks from the four guards who can enter and exit the palace.]
[Once again, you arrive at the northwest back door of Daxuan Royal Palace and patiently wait.)
[Two hours later, you finally see the back door open, and you quickly capture all four guards. You then search for their marks on their bodies with the help of the Skywolf Clan Great Princess.]
[The marks on the guards are not concealed. With the Great Princess’s help, you successfully find the marks and transfer one of them from a guard to yourself.)
[Next, with the Great Princess’s assistance, you acquire some of the guards’ memories and learn about the palace’s layout.]
[One minute later, relying on the mark, you take on the appearance of the guard and successfully enter the palace.]
[Security is strict in the palace, and the guard you transform into can only move in a fixed area. However, this doesn’t bother you. With your Thousand Changes and Ten Thousand Transmutations, you continuously change your appearance and gradually approach the core of the palace with different identities.]
[You did not find that the moment you entered the palace, the mark on your body began to fade quickly. Three minutes later, you arrive at the Scripture Collection Pavilion where the Daxuan Royal family stores their ancient books. You plan to search for the secrets of the Divine Way from them.]
[This is a four-story hexagonal pagoda-style building. Just as you are about to enter the scripture repository, the mark on your body completely dissipates, and your presence is instantly noticed by a terrifying existence.]
[You have died.]
“The mark will fade? Is this because it’s been separated?”
The foreknowledge attempt ends in failure once again.
Fortunately, this time he entered the palace, and it wasn’t without gain.
“The mark can only last for three minutes. If I act quickly, I should have enough time.”
His goal in entering the palace is to search for the secrets of the Divine Way. If he can confirm the location of the secrets, three minutes would be enough for him to get what he wants.
Foreknowledge begins once again.
This time it also consumed 2 foreknowledge opportunities.
[Knowing that the mark on your body can only last for three minutes, you do not waste any time and reach the Scripture Collection Pavilion with the fastest speed. Then, you use the Across the Heavens Shift technique to enter the building directly.]
[Successfully entering the Scripture Collection Pavilion, you see that except for the wall with the main entrance, the other five walls all have grooves filled with ancient texts.]
[At a glance, you notice that the ancient texts on this level are ordinary documents, not what you are looking for. You quickly move towards the upper levels.]
[Two minutes later, you arrive at the second level. Instead of ancient texts, the grooves in the walls contain numerous jade slips, totaling several thousand. You understand that these jade slips are most likely the Demon Sutra.]
[You try to take down a jade slip to check, but as you pick it up, the Formation in the Scripture Collection Pavilion is triggered. An old man guarding the fourth floor of the pavilion is alerted and quickly approaches you.]
[You are not aware that all the jade slips here are covered in Formation, and to retrieve them, you need not only the bloodline of the Daxuan Royal Family but also a specific jade token as the key.)
[Three minutes later, the old man guarding the Scripture Collection Pavilion finds you. He takes action against you, and at the same time, the mark on your body disappears. You are discovered by an unknown existence.]
[You have died.]
“Formation! It’s another Formation!”
“There are indeed many formations in this Daxuan Kingdom!”
On his brow furrowed, Su Nan thinks it is normal after all.
Places like the Scripture Collection Pavilion and Treasure Vault are of utmost importance for any influence, and it’s natural for them to be protected by formations and powerful individuals.
“Bloodline, all these formations of Daxuan Kingdom are related to bloodlines. Without the bloodline of the Daxuan Royal Family, it will be difficult to get the desired items from their palace.”
One way or another, the issue of bloodline remains.
It has to be said that ordinary people are genuinely helpless when facing the formations of the Daxuan Kingdom.
Even Su Nan cannot claim with certainty that he can solve this problem.
To obtain a bloodline, one must merge with essence and blood.
While the bloodline of demons can be obtained through merging, human bloodlines cannot.
He has never heard of anyone merging with a human bloodline.
The reason is simple: everyone’s bloodlines are more or less the same, with no distinctions of superiority or inferiority. Not to mention whether it is possible to merge, even if it is, what’s the point in doing so?
Unless, in this world of humans, there are so-called holy bodies, divine bodies with unique and bizarre abilities in their bloodlines.
“My Thousand Changes and Ten Thousand Transmutations can display bloodline talents without merging with essence and blood.”
“If I just use the essence and blood for the Thousand Changes and Ten Thousand Transmutations, can I deceive the formation?”
An idea popped up in Su Nan’s heart.
He looked at the foreknowledge and tried again.
Foreknowledge began.
However, to his frown, this time foreknowledge consumed three times, one more than the previous two.
The beginning of the foreknowledge was the same as before.
After waiting for two hours, Su Nan obtained a mark from the guard and entered the palace.
[You successfully entered the palace, and you know that if you want to stay here for a long time, you must get the bloodline of the Daxuan Royal Family. You plan to get it from a member of the royal family.]
[Following the information obtained from the guard’s memory, you easily found the Fourth Prince’s bedroom, silently captured him, and took him out of the palace.]
[Six hours later, under your threat, the Fourth Prince was forced to extract a drop of essence blood from his body while you obtained his memory with the help of the Skywolf Clan Princess.]
[With the essence blood, you perform the Thousand Changes and Ten Thousand Transmutations, turning into Fourth Prince’s appearance and entering the palace again. With the help of the essence blood, your re-entry into the palace didn’t cause any abnormalities.]
“It really can be done!”
Su Nan’s eyes brightened.
By obtaining the bloodline of the Daxuan Royal Family, his subsequent actions would be much easier. Moreover, with the Fourth Prince’s memory, he could even perfectly disguise himself as the Fourth Prince and live in the palace.
However, he found it strange that under such circumstances he still only consumed three foreknowledge. He was curious how he could die this time.
[You had just returned to the bedroom in the identity of the Great Prince, preparing to plan your next move when you received a summons from the ancestor of the Daxuan Kingdom and proceeded to a place called Grand Imperial Hall.]
[Upon arriving at the Grand Imperial Hall, you found that you were not the only one summoned. There were four other princes. It was then that you learned that the selection of the Great King of Daxuan Kingdom was not based on the order of birth but on meeting a series of stringent conditions.]
[Since the sudden assassination of the Great King of Daxuan, none of the five princes of the Daxuan Kingdom have met the conditions. After discussing with several ancestors, it was decided to let you and the other princes enter the Great Temple and undergo a test. Whoever passes the test will inherit the position of the Great King of Daxuan Kingdom.]
“Passing the test leads to inheriting the position of the Great King of Daxuan Kingdom?”
“Doesn’t this mean that if the Fourth Prince, whom I’m disguised as, passes the test, he could also get the position of the Great King of Daxuan?”
Upon thinking about this, Su Nan’s eyes brightened.
He was not interested in the so-called position of the Great King of Daxuan. After all, he couldn’t stay here for a long time, and even if he won the position of the Great King, he wouldn’t actually be the ruler of Daxuan.
But by becoming the Great King of Daxuan, he could get the control of those paper puppet demons!
Those were three peak king-level paper puppets!
If he could get them, wouldn’t he dominate everyone below the king level?!
“Although the control of the paper puppets seems to be in the hands of the Offering God Demons in the Great Temple, and the Great King of Daxuan can’t control them completely, there should be no way for the Offering God Demons if I take the paper puppets out of the Land of the Lost.”
Su Nan felt that the plan seemed feasible.
[Six hours later, you entered the Great Temple with the other five princes under the guidance of the ancestor of the Daxuan Kingdom.]
[You saw a prominent stone statue in the Great Temple. The statue was a middle-aged man wearing battle armor. Below the statue, there were spirit tablets dedicated to the past Great Kings of Daxuan.]
[After the worship, the Ancestor of Daxuan Kingdom left you and the other four princes in the Great Temple, telling you that whoever can persevere until sunrise tomorrow will pass the test.]
[As the main gate of the Great Temple closed, the temple fell into deathly silence. You and the other four princes exchanged glances, but no one spoke first.]
[One minute later, there were no abnormalities in the Great Temple.]
[Two minutes later, the Great Temple was still dead silent.]
[Three minutes later, you were dead.]
“Did I just die like that?”
It was not surprising that he would die in the Great Temple, but this sudden death without any warning puzzled him.
It was at this moment that a prompt popped up.
Seeing the game prompt, Su Nan’s eyes brightened.
“Mainline Task! I actually triggered a Mainline Task!”
