Cursed Immortality

Chapter 556 Inscrutable Immortal

After the small incident with the Zodiac Night Guardian, Jacob didnʼt directly return to the ship, but he waited for the night before taking different paths just in case someone was monitoring him.

Furthermore, he doesnʼt use any ship to travel in the star ocean; instead, he directly dives in and uses his water magic to head back with Sofie. This way, no one would be able to find him.

At this moment, Broganʼs figure appeared above the calm ocean, and with him was a small figure. Furthermore, they were standing on a small flying ship, which was completely invisible. This kind of technology was unheard of in the epic plains.

”Heʼs too careful. What should we do now, Grandpa? We wonʼt be able to find his hideout.” The small figure stated with unwillingness.

If Jacob were here, he would instantly identify this person because he was the same person who escaped Jacobʼs clutches in the forest of the epic plains trial by using a teleportation talisman and also revealed its existence.

Broganʼs expression was dark before he sighed, ”Heʼs really careful. I was hoping to confirm if he had given away the medallion or not since the device didnʼt pick up anything on his person.

”So, there is a chance that he left it somewhere else. But now, we canʼt go after him since it might expose our flying ship. Letʼs go back; Iʼll report it to the higher-ups. What they do after that has nothing to do with us.”

”Itʼs all that bastard Nelsenʼs fault; if he hadnʼt forfeited, we wouldnʼt be having this trouble.” The person said hatefully.

”That guy was only protecting his own family, and we canʼt do anything to him since his clan has some ties with us. Forget about it, you were almost died in that place, itʼs time for you to increase your power in our territory. You are my hope to escape the Lesser Grand Absolute Galaxy of Taurus and enter the middle plains.” Brogan looked at his grandson gently.

”I wonʼt disappoint you, Grandpa. Let that bastard dance in the lesser plains. He wonʼt be able to escape the conflict plains.” He sneered with disdain.

Almost dying by Jacobʼs hand was the biggest humiliation of his life, and the most hateful thing was he still didnʼt know what happened that day. Thatʼs why both Brogan, and he didnʼt take excessive action against Jacob because they were afraid of that exact power.

Thereafter, both of them left and vanished on the horizon.

A few hours later, Jacob finally returned to the island where the old crew was camping, and he told Mic he was going into seclusion to prepare for their long journey, and the Dark Cityʼs higher-ups were also coming with them.

In truth, Jacob was waiting for Autarch to be done with Masha, and this would also give Nyx the time to absorb all the peopleʼs lifespans here.

After knowing about the absolute factions and the zodiac plains, he knew he was still just a drop in the ocean, so he needed to get stronger constantly. At least he needed the strength of legend rank, which was too far away from him.

There was no information on this rank in Epic Plains. Maybe he found some clues in the dark city of the unique plains. Still, the star ocean was filled with unknown, so he needed all the power he could muster up.

The only way was the Cursed Immortality or the Art of Nature. But the third meditation exercise, the Lightning Meditation, required an environment filled with lightning, just like the fire desert, and he didnʼt know any such place. Hence, he had to put all his attention on the Immortal Chapter of the Cursed Immortality.

Jacob opened the cursed immortalityʼs immortal chapter and stared at the blood drop, and after an hour, he still didnʼt find any profundity.

In the end, Jacob carefully opened his eyes of judge, and the moment he laid his eyes on the blood drop, he suddenly saw he was surrounded by nothing but crimson blood, and in this strange place, he saw shining glyphs floating.

But just as he was about to look at those glyphs closely, a piercing pain attacked his head, and his vision darkened; the next moment, he appeared in his room, pale and sweating profusely with sharp pain in his head and eyes.

A few minutes later, the pain finally went away, and their vision returned to normal, but he felt extreme fatigue. He began to eat some meat he prepared before as he looked at the drop of blood profoundly.

”So, thatʼs what youʼre hiding.” He muttered as he finally saw what Immortika was talking about, and without the eyes of judge, he might never have been able to see through this drop of blood in his lifetime.

The page on the cursed immortality turned, and Immortika wrote, ”Hehe, youʼre quite daring to use your eyes, which arenʼt even the initial stage of their awakening, to peer into the immortal chapter. Do this ten more times, and youʼll be forever blind. Then donʼt blame me for not warning you, hahaha.”

Jacob was shocked as his expression grew dark, ”Initial stage? Can you please just explain what I need to do to awake them?”

”I canʼt help you with that. You need to figure these things out on your own. All I can do is give you subtle hints and warnings. You better start taking it more seriously. You are very lucky to have the eyes of judge, so donʼt ruin them, or even your ancestors would cry blood if they found out about it. Hahahaha…” Immortika laughed in relish.

Jacob frowned when suddenly a realization struck him, ”My ancestors… donʼt tell me I need to investigate this bloodline to learn their secrets. I was really stupid, all I have to do is to look into my bloodline, and Iʼll know the answer.”

”Hahaha… I didnʼt say anything.” Immortika still didnʼt admit it, but it had clearly given Jacob a very precious hint, like always.

Jacob didnʼt mind since this was all he needed. He couldnʼt help but sigh, ”I guess my confrontation with the Faery Humans of the Unique Plains is unavoidable, huh?”

Since he canʼt see through the immortal chapter, he decides not to waste time and focus on the scripture of blank to increase his power.

Time passed, and on this day, Jacob waved his sleeve, and Masha appeared in front of him.

She suddenly opened her bewitching eyes, which were completely emotionless, and seeing smiling Jacob in front of her, she kneeled in front of him and emotionlessly said, her, she kneeled in front of him and emotionlessly said, ”Autarch, greets Sir!”
