[First Task: Enter the Guiyi Sectâs Land of Inheritance]
[Task Difficulty: One-star]
[Task Reward: 30 Demon Points]
âGuiyi Sect, itâs actually this sect.â
Su Nanâs eyes shimmered slightly, he knew of this sect.
Previously, in the ninth layer of illusions at the Ancient God Tomb, he had learned quite a bit about information from Ancient Times, among which were the martial sects of the Human clan.
In the information he had acquired, there were ten major sects of the Ancient Human clan, and the Great Sun Golden Body Scripture that he cultivated belonged to one of them, the Great Sun Sect.
And this Guiyi Sect was also one of the ten great sects, with its Fundamental Scripture being the âNine Revolutions Guiyi Scriptureâ.
It was said that by cultivating this ancient scripture to Great Accomplishment, one could fuse nine different types of strength into one, forging a unique and terrifyingly powerful force.

âIf I could obtain the inheritance of this sect, that wouldnât be bad,â thought Su Nan, his interest growing significantly.
This was a sect comparable to the mighty Great Sun Sect. If he could obtain its inheritance, he would certainly gain a great amount of Qi Luck.
Moreover, the ancient scripture of this sect seemed very interesting.
Merging nine different powers into one, to form a new strength.
The powers he currently possessed were mixed, especially the power of his bloodline. If he could use the âNine Revolutions Guiyi Scriptureâ to merge the powers in his body, his strength would surely reach a new level.
However, obtaining this inheritance in a short time seemed impossible.
âWhat I have now is a secondary inheritance; there are a hundred such inheritances in total. Only when all one hundred appear will the true inheritance emerge.â
âI havenât heard of anyone receiving such a task before; perhaps my portion of the inheritance is the first.â
If that was the case, who knew how long it would take for all the secondary inheritances to appear.
By then, he would probably have long since returned to Dongchen State.
Moreover, to enter the land of inheritance, obtaining a qualification was not enough, one needed to get ten!
However, according to the information obtained from the inheritance, these ten qualifications did not require obtaining ten inheritances. As long as one could kill those who had obtained an inheritance, one could also gain the qualifications!
This meant that out of one hundred inheritances, at most only ten people could enter the Ancestral Land in the end!
He did not have the time to search for those who obtained the inheritance and kill them to acquire the qualifications.
âLetâs deal with those guys from Destiny Society first, this task isnât urgent,â he decided.
â¦
Six hours later.
Outside the Ancient Desolate Ruins, Su Nan stood in the air.
Wherever his gaze reached, there was a barren land. Not a single blade of grass grew here, appearing like a land of desolation.
This region was vast, spanning across hundreds of miles, and one could vaguely see ancient buildings preserved from Ancient Times at intervals.
Even standing outside the ruins, Su Nan felt an unsettling and chaotic sensation. Instinctively, he felt a repulsion towards these ruins.
At his side, Luo Yu was staring at the remains of the Ancient Wilderness Sect, his expression heavy, âIs this the Ancient Desolate Ruins?â
âHave you heard of this place?â Su Nan questioned.
Luo Yu nodded, âThis sect perished very early in Ancient Times, leaving only these ruins behind. Back then, both the Human and demon clans were very wary of this place.â
âIt is said that those who entered here would be plagued by bad luck and their Qi Luck would plummet. In the depths of these ruins, there are resentful spirits of the sectâs disciples that have merged with the ruins and have become part of the curse. As long as they are within these ruins, they will not die and are very troublesome to deal with.â
Su Nan nodded; he was aware of all of this. If possible, he would rather not come to this place either.
âA group of rats has entered here. I need you to go in and fetch them out for me.â
âRats?â Luo Yu suddenly understood, finally realizing why Su Nan had come here from Dongchen State.
âAre we going in now?â
âNo rush, letâs wait,â Su Nan said.
The Personal Information Panel appeared before his eyes; it wasnât long before it would be midnight in reality.
He decided to wait for the game to refresh and foreknow the situation before acting.
At the same time.
In the depths of the Ancient Desolate Ruins, the core area of the ruins, not far away laid the real location of the Ancient Wilderness Sect, where rows of ancient and dilapidated architectural remains stretched on.
There, a towering altar had been erected.
âSoon! Very soon!â
âAs soon as this altar is fully completed, Wang Nanâs death wonât be far away.â
The people from Destiny Society were bustling about, and one could faintly see a great number of invisible entities struggling and howling atop the altar!
These were the characteristic resentful spirits of the Ancient Desolate Ruins!
These people were using the resentful spirits to perform a secret technique.
â`
âAre these enough?â Liu Di asked from the side.
The emperor-level ancestor stared at the resentful spirits bound upon the altar. These spirits were more than enough to deal with a king-level, even an emperor-level being.
However, thinking of Wang Nanâs strangeness, he said solemnly, âWang Nan is not someone we can deal with by ordinary means. Indeed, these resentful spirits may not be completely reliable. We still need to capture some more.â
âRoarâ¦ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
As they were speaking, suddenly, a deep roar came from the depths of the Ancient Wilderness Sect, causing everyoneâs expressions to stiffen. They all looked in the direction of the sound in unison.
âWhat on earth is that?â Finally, Liu Di couldnât hold back his curiosity and asked.
He had heard such low roars more than once during this period, and he noticed that as more resentful spirits were captured, the roars became more frequent.
The ancestor remained silent for a moment, then said, âThat too is a resentful spirit. However, it is a resentful spirit that formed after the death of a powerful person.â
âAlso a resentful spirit?â Liu Di frowned, seemingly disbelieving.
He expressed his concern, âBy capturing these resentful spirits, weâve already angered that thing. If we continue, might it not attack us?â
The ancestor shook his head and said, âDonât worry. In ancient times, a powerful person took action and trapped that thing in that region. It cannot leave.â
He continued, with a hint of regret, âItâs a pity, though. If we could bring that guy over here, even if Wang Nan broke through to emperor-level, it would be easy to obliterate him.â
â¦
âEh? What sound is that?â
Meanwhile, outside the Ancient Desolate Ruins, Su Nan also faintly heard the low roar and couldnât help but be startled.
Luo Yu said, âIt seems to be some sort of roar? Strange, could there be some beast inside the ruins?â
Su Nanâs expression became grave, and he couldnât shake an ominous premonition.
The two waited.
Over ten minutes later, the time reached midnight in reality.
The game refreshed, and the foreknowledge times were restored.
In Dongchen State, Lang Thirteenâs Heavenly Demon Grand Ceremonyâs fourth elimination round also began, and this time it was a cut from twenty to ten.
The Great Princess sighed, âThere are many strong individuals from all clans this time. Iâm afraid itâs not possible for me to make it into the top ten.â
Su Nan flipped his hand and presented an item, saying, âWhat if you had this?â
It was a green fruit.
It was none other than the Talent Spirit Fruit!
âTalent Spirit Fruit!â The Great Princessâs eyes shone with excitement.
The Second Princess, seeing this scene, couldnât help but feel envious. She also looked at Su Nan with a yearning gaze.
Su Nan thought for a moment and took out another Talent Spirit Fruit, âThis is the last one.â
âYou really do have one!â Seeing Su Nan produce another fruit, the Second Princess immediately became unsettled. She then quickly snatched it with joy, not caring where Su Nan got so many Talent Spirit Fruits from.
Watching the once proud Green Wolf Demon King now showing the side of a young girl, Su Nan couldnât help but shake his head slightly.
The Task Panel appeared before him, and he quickly glanced at todayâs tasks.
[Daily Task 1: Rescue a demon beast]
Task Difficulty: 3 stars
[Daily Task 2: Explore the Ancient Desolate Ruins]
Task Difficulty: 3 stars
[Daily Task 3: Hunt a Demonic Emperor]
Task Difficulty: 3 stars
These were Wang Nanâs tasks, not surprisingly, as they had contact with the Ancient Desolate Ruins, the corresponding tasks refreshed.
Then he looked at Zhang Yangâs tasks.
[Daily Task 1: Hunt an emperor-level demon beast]
Task Difficulty: 3 stars
[Daily Task 2: Hunt a king-level demonic beast]
Task Difficulty: 2 stars
[Daily Task 3: Dissolve the curse of the Ancient Desolate Ruins]
Task Difficulty: four-star
âA four-star task!â
Su Nan fixated on the third task, quite surprised.
Even though his true body was far away in East Chen, the role of Zhang Yang still refreshed tasks related to the Ancient Desolate Ruins.
This might be related to the prior foreknowledge, or perhaps because he had recently switched roles after turning the Life Wheel Scripture.
But none of that mattered. What was important was that he simply could not complete this task.
