Chapter 554: Chapter 297 Techniques_2
Su Nan was taken aback, and couldn’t help but think of a mythical ability from the real world: Call the Wind and Summon the Rain!
“I wonder what the relationship between this technique and the ability to call wind and rain is?”
The game provides very little information about Technique Seeds, almost none, making it difficult for Su Nan to glean any useful information.
To know its specific purpose, he could only try it out first.
“Use!”
Without hesitation, he immediately chose to use it.
As his thoughts moved, the Technique Seed quickly dissolved and integrated into his body.
The next moment, Su Nan instantly felt an additional force inside his body, a force that seemed like his left arm and right arm and could be used at will.
Not trying it right away, he first looked at his panel.
On the panel, a new technique appeared in the Techniques section.
[Call the Wind: The deadly wind is invisible, corroding bones and souls. When using this technique, you can summon the wind that kills from the nine heavens. Where the deadly wind passes, all flesh and blood will be corroded by the wind. This technique can be used once a day, and the higher the user’s realm, the more powerful the summoned wind will be.]
“Call the Nine Deadly Winds?”
“This technique is great!”
After reading the introduction, Su Nan’s eyes instantly showed joy.
It was obvious that this was an offensive type of technique. This was the first time he had seen an offensive technique. And from the introduction, this technique could clearly kill enemies in a large area.
Rusting bones and corroding souls meant that the deadly wind not only damaged the physical body but also affected the divine soul. Just this alone was enough to show how powerful the deadly wind was!
“It’s a pity that this technique, like the racial talent, can only be used once a day.”
Su Nan sighed in secret, the limit on the number of uses was the only imperfection of this technique.
Techniques are not like divine abilities, which can be enhanced by using Divine Power Fragments. However, the power of this technique can be increased with the improvement of his realm. The higher the realm, the stronger the power, and it will never be outdated.
Seeing the once-a-day usage limit, Su Nan decisively gave up the plan to try using it and continued to look at the task.
[Mainline Task: Path of the Lord]
[Task Third Round: Complete Blood Sacrifice]
[Task Difficulty: Four-Star]
[Task Reward: Xuan-Level Demon Sutra, Xuan-Level Bloodline, 60 points of Demon Power, Divine Dao Secret Techniques.]
[Task Countdown: 15 Days]
As expected, the third round of the task is the same as the trial his avatar has to complete next. As long as he can complete the final blood sacrifice, he will be able to obtain the position of the Daxuan Kingdom Master.
“The final reward is the Divine Dao Secret Techniques, which is the same as the reward of the third round of Mystery of the Divine Dao. I just don’t know what the Divine Dao Secret Techniques are for.”
In the Great Temple.
As expected, upon discovering the end of the Divine Soul Baptism, the Three Elders were overjoyed.
“It only took two days! Not bad, it’s much faster than we expected!”
“Next, we just need to complete the final blood sacrifice, and once that’s done, you will become the master of our great Daxuan Kingdom.”
Upon hearing the blood sacrifice, Su Nan immediately asked, “What is the blood sacrifice, Elders?”
At his words, the three elders did not answer him immediately but fell silent for a moment.
After exchanging glances, the oldest elder nodded, and one of the relatively younger elders finally spoke:
“You originally did not have the qualifications to know about this, but now you are just one step away from becoming the master of our great Daxuan Kingdom. It doesn’t hurt to let you know and let you be prepared.”
“Our great Daxuan Kingdom was once extremely powerful, and what we practiced was not the way of bloodlines, but a supreme method called Fragrant Fire Spiritual Path.”
The elder spoke with pride.
Hearing this, Su Nan knew what the elder wanted to say, but he still pretended to be surprised: “Fragrant Fire Spiritual Path? What is that?”
The old man did not provide much explanation, only saying, “It’s a supreme Great Dao that far exceeds the path of bloodlines! Unfortunately, a strange event occurred once, causing our Daxuan Kingdom to fall to this point and be trapped in this Land of the Lost, unable to leave.”
With that, his tone shifted and said, “Fortunately, even so, our ancestors of Daxuan Kingdom have left us with a powerful trump card, which is the foundation that has allowed our Daxuan Kingdom to stand tall in the Land of the Lost for thousands of years.”
“A trump card?” Su Nan timely showed a shocked expression, then exclaimed as if he had realized something, “Could it be…?”
The old man nodded and said, “Correct, they are called Paper Puppet Demons, a bizarre existence. To control these Paper Puppet Demons, you must cultivate Divine Dao Secret Techniques.”
“Unfortunately, since the strange event thousands of years ago, all secret techniques related to the Fragrant Fire Divine Way have been lost. Even our Daxuan Kingdom doesn’t have them,” the old man sighed, his eyes filled with regret.
“Not available?” At this, Su Nan’s heart instantly felt disappointed.
He originally thought that as a force established by the Daxuan Dynasty, the Daxuan Kingdom would have inherited some Divine Dao Secret Techniques. It seems that he was being too optimistic.
The old man continued, “The Blood Sacrifice Method is a secret technique created by our High Ancestor of Daxuan Kingdom, which allows those of us who have not cultivated the Fragrant Fire Divine Way to control the Paper Puppet Demons and not be backfired.”
“The method of the Blood Sacrifice is very simple. Starting tomorrow, you just need to come to this Great Temple at midnight every day, smear your blood on three sandalwood sticks and light them. Once all the incense burns out naturally, you can leave.”
He paused and then continued solemnly, “This process can be as short as seven days or as long as fifteen days.”
“This process is not absolutely safe; on the contrary, it’s very dangerous. One slight mishap, and you might be backfired by the God Offering Demons, and then be devoured!”
“Devoured?”
Su Nan’s brow furrowed, and he couldn’t help but recall the situation at the City God Temple in Tianyun City.
However, for him, the Paper Puppet Demons were not a big problem.
What he was really worried about were the God Offering Demons!
The third-ring task on the Path of the Lord is also four-star, which means this process will definitely involve Emperor-level Offering God Demons. It might reenact the scene from the City God Temple in Tianyun County City.
Su Nan pondered carefully, seeing him like this, the old man thought he was scared, and reassured him, “You don’t need to worry. You have passed the test of the Great Temple and completed the Divine Soul Baptism. Although this final step of Blood Sacrifice seems dangerous to you, you won’t have a life-threatening situation.”
Su Nan nodded, not too worried.
From the current information, although the Blood Sacrifice is time-consuming, taking at least seven days at the fastest, it does not seem as dangerous as the Divine Soul Baptism for him.
At least, he already had a direction to deal with it.
According to the old man, to control those God Offering Demons, one needs to cultivate Divine Dao Secret Techniques!
While the people of Daxuan Kingdom do not cultivate the Fragrant Fire Divine Way or have Divine Dao Secret Techniques, they can only control the God Offering Demons using the Blood Sacrifice Method.
Compared to the Daxuan Kingdom’s royal family, although he doesn’t have Divine Dao Secret Techniques, at least he has cultivated the Fragrant Fire Divine Way. He might be able to choose a method to control the God Offering Demons from the Fragrant Fire Divine Way.
“You go back and rest first. We also need to prepare. Come back tomorrow at midnight,” said another old man.
Su Nan nodded, didn’t say anything else, and controlled his avatar to leave the Great Temple.
Upon returning to the Fourth Prince’s bedroom, he took out the Divine Aperture Stone from the Divine Soul in his avatar for the first time and sent it back to his real body through Personal Space.
Afterward, he carefully observed the changes in his Divine Soul.
Compared to before, the Divine Soul in his avatar had grown more than three times stronger!
Just in terms of Power of Divine Soul, it was already comparable to Beginner Xuan-level!
Keep in mind that this part of the Divine Soul was just a small part of his real body, not even one-tenth.
Unfortunately, this part of the Divine Soul was destined not to be his.
“Foreknowledge said that there is an invisible seed in my Divine Soul, and though I don’t know what that invisible seed is or what it’s for, I can be sure that it’s definitely not something good.”
“Just in case, I have to get rid of it as soon as possible.”
Su Nan didn’t dare to delay, who knew if the seed would “take root and sprout” over time. He planned to destroy this part of the Divine Soul today.
As for wanting to destroy the Divine Soul, Su Nan definitely couldn’t do it on his own, and he could only ask for the Great Princess’s help.
With this in mind, he used the Thousand Changes and Ten Thousand Transmutations to turn into a flying bird and left the palace, quickly heading towards his real body.
Su Nan didn’t notice that as he flew out of the Royal City, a young man seemed to sense something and looked up at him.
