Cursed Immortality

Chapter 850: Cost of Infinite Time Module!

The central area of the Valley of Sunless Dusk was the source of dreadful stories and rumors. This place was enshrouded in a thick, dark mist of death, and no one could see past it.

But if someone were lucky enough to pass this mist, they would reach the true center of the Valley where lies The Necropolis of Shades!

The Necropolis of Shades was a massive city made of onyx stone and bone. Its towering spires were adorned with skeletal statues, and its gates were sealed shut! Anyone who had seen this mystical city ended up dead!

Deep within this undead city lies a well of pure death energy known as the Font of Eternal Night. According to the legends, this Front of Eternal Night used to be the source of the Cursed Necromancer Kingʼs prowess!

At this moment, this pulsating pool of darkness was actually the source of the valleyʼs mystical curse. It radiates death energy, slowly spreading its corrupting influence outward, ensuring no life can flourish here.

However, deep within this abyssal well was a massive underground hall, and in the center of this hall was a pool filled with liquefied death energy. It was the purest and rarest form of elemental energy, and it was so rare that even a Legendary King would wage a war to acquire just a few drops of it.

This form of elemental energy was also known as the Law Essence in the legendary plains! As for why it was so precious because a single drop of law essence can help not only comprehend a law of the essenceʼs element but also increase its comprehension.

Everyone knew one needed to comprehend a law to progress in the legendary rank.

But here in the core of the valley, all this death law essence had gathered in a pool. If news got out, many legendary kings who comprehended the death element would go absolutely crazy and might take the risk of acquiring it. After all, the death element was a superior-tier law! The laws of the zodiac plains were measured in three categories, just like the magic elements: common tier laws like the elements of fire, water, and earth; rare tier laws like lightning, dark, and light; and unique tier laws like poisonous flame, black lightning, holy light, and elements that were variants of two or more laws. But these laws were scarce.

Then comes the superior-tier laws like death, life, space, and time. These elements canʼt exist in variant forms and always remain in their purest form, and their concepts are absolute.

Although it was possible to create spells by combining these laws with inferior laws, they still couldnʼt be fused to create a new type of unique law, and thatʼs why they were in the category of superior laws.

Lastly, experts of legendary rank would always seek to comprehend at least one unique law if they wanted to have a bright future and gain high standing in other organizations.

But the superior laws were still at the top, but comprehending them was another story. Some legendary rank spent their entire lives comprehending a superior law, and thatʼs why this law essence that could help someone comprehend death law was so precious and priceless.

In fact, these law essences were natural treasures that only appeared in places where the concentration of an element was extremely high and crossed a certain threshold, like an elemental planet or galaxy.

Anyway, this death law essenceʼs pool was clearly abnormal because a faint purplish glow was visible in the middle of it. At this point, the pitch-black law essence suddenly rose, and ripples appeared in the calm pool as if something was rising from the depths of it!

Suddenly, a pitch-black throne made with black runic bones rose from the pool. The throne wasnʼt empty; there was a misty silhouette sitting on it. At this moment, two crimson beams shone brightly from its head, illumining the entire pitch-black hall.

A grating, corrosive voice, extremely faint as if on the verge of death, rang in the hall, ”T- this....fe-feeling...a....a...body...a....pure....body o-of...curse....has....appeared!”

The crimson beams shone even more powerfully as the barely audible voice rang again, but this time, this voice rang in the heads of every single slave of the valley, ”Soulbond Legion! Find the body of curses for this Emperor, and I shall grant you all... freedom!”

At this moment, Jacob, in his hidden cavern, was looking at Elia, who was still in slumber after she got the Liber Chaotica and started bounding with it. However, the devilʼs face mark on her forehead had become somewhat vivid and pulsing strongly.

Elia had been in his infinity pendant for years now because he had been swamped and in dangerous situations ever since that day he went to hunt the Ice Fiend Locust Queen.

So, time seemed to have stopped for Elia, and she didnʼt seem to have aged at all. Now that he finally had a chance to catch his breath, he wanted to give her the chance to be properly infused with the Liber Chaotica.

However, he wasnʼt sure if she could remain alive in this environment since it was literally a death ground for any living being. But since Elia had a special constitution related to the curses, he wanted to see if she could give him another surprise.

ʼSure enough, her breathing hadnʼt disrupted at all; in fact, the element of death in the air seemed to have become more chaotic after she appeared, and that mark seemed to be absorbing it very slowly now...and she also seemed to be breathing the death element in!ʼ

Jacobʼs eyes flickered as he still didnʼt know much about zodiac constitutions, but one thing was clear: Elie was his investment, and he needed her to grow to reap the benefits, so he was now more assured.

After observing her for a while and ensuring nothing was wrong, Jacob summoned Autarch and let it stay hidden here just in case something happened, so Autarch could instantly alert

him.

Thereafter, he left the room and entered his own stone chamber, which was far bigger but still plain and simple.

Jacob sat down on the stone platform and summoned cursed immortality, ”Tell me, how much will it cost me to use the Infinite Time Module function of the Infinity Pendant? What if I want to increase my time speed by a 100:1 ratio? One hundred seconds for me will only be one second for the world. Am I right?”

”Hehehe, now this is unexpected. And here I thought you would never use it in your lifetime!” Immortika snickered playfully.

Jacob coldly retorted, ”No, I just want to know the price and how to use it. Iʼm not in a hurry here, but if the price is reasonable, I might consider it.”

”Hehehehe...whatever you said.” Immortika laughed, ”Alright, to use the Infinite Time Module of the Infinity Pedant, you just need to connect yourself with the Infinity pendant, just like you always do to store or retake the things in the pendant.

”After that, just think about the function and how you want to activate it. For example, now you want to increase only time for yourself by a 100:1 ratio, and youʼll instantly get a response from the pedant itself. The cost of using it will directly appear in your mind, and once you accept, itʼll instantly start to operate once you pay the price.

”Oh, one thing to remember: always tell it how much time you need to activate the Infinite Time Module because if you donʼt, itʼll continue to operate, and youʼll continue to lose your lifespan or

infinity blood.

”Last but not least, once you have paid the price for the time period, you canʼt deactivate it because of its missing component, and Iʼve already told you about the ten price increase for the aforementioned

reason.

”As for how much itʼll cost to increase 100:1 time just for yourself, Iʼll directly tell you by the lifespan amount; for each second, you need to pay 10 days of your lifespan! This shouldʼve been just a day, but, hehehe, you know, right? Hahahahaha!”

Jacobʼs eyes were constricted, and this price was simply too absurd and he directly gave up on using the Infinite Time Module; it was simply too unreasonable.

Jacob then issued another command, ”Forget it; open the immortal chapter! Letʼs see how long itʼll take me to comprehend it!”
