Cursed Immortality

Chapter 825  Universal Godly Artifacts! (1)

The cursed book finally appeared in front of Jacob at this moment, and the eerie voice filled with wanton laughter rang, ”Hahahahaha… man, I thought I would see a good show, and youʼll try to seduce her once you discover who she really was, but what a letdown. It was still amusing nonetheless, and I approved of your action and not overestimating yourself!”

Jacobʼs eyes flickered with rage when he heard those words, but he wasnʼt surprised that the damn book was amused; in fact, he knew it would be like this since he understood too well how Immortika gets its kicks.

Nonetheless, he was furious and felt like pushing the cursed book, but he knew he couldnʼt and suppressed his anger as he coldly said, ”Iʼm happy that youʼre amused, but unfortunately, Iʼm not! So, can you please explain why you didnʼt warn me about it? And Iʼm expecting a damn good reason!” ”Hah, didnʼt you already figure it out?” Immortika asked playfully. ”Hmph, I sure did, but it still doesnʼt explain why you didnʼt tell me from the start if you knew there was another inheritor of a Universal Godly Scripture roaming around the Path of Legend! And Iʼm even more confused about why it canʼt do the same with you. If you can detect the Chaotic Darkness, why canʼt it do the same for you? Just what are you hiding, and what is so special about you?!

”And donʼt you dare try to deny it or bullshit your way out of it because I swear Iʼll fucking stop following your instructions and find another way to reach Immortality! Weʼre through!” Jacob asked with a deep sense of vigilant yet unbreakable determination in his tone.

From the moment he found the truth behind that womanʼs existence, he knew Immortika already knew who she was, but for some reason, the Chaotic Darkness didnʼt because if it did, that exchange would be completely different.

Not to mention, with what was going on with all the Zodiac Wisps, he was now sure that Cursed Immortality was different from the Chaotic Darkness or probably all the Universal Godly Scriptures, and he wanted to know what it was, or he wouldnʼt be at peace and continue to walk on the path of Cursed Immortality!

”Hahahahaha…” Immortika burst into laughter, and there wasnʼt any hint of panic or anger in it; it was more like laughter filled with hilarity.

”You know you got some balls to say something like that and the courage and determination to abandon a Universal Godly Scripture. No one wouldʼve even thought about it unless they didnʼt know what they were giving up.

”Itʼs like outright denying the reality and wanting to create your own. Very, very few people have such a mindset to question everything, denying the facts and even the existence of the Universe, or simply put, itʼs true Atheism!

”However, this is the exact attitude that required someone to complete me, Cursed Immortality. You need to question everything and anything that you find wrong, doubt your own existence to get to the truth, and donʼt take even the slightest risk if it threatens your entire existence!

”I know youʼve been suppressing these thoughts for a long time because you donʼt have the courage to face reality, and you were afraid that things would have turned out exactly how you suspected them. I want to see how long it would take you to face it or if you even have it in you.

”But it seemed I was worried about nothing, and you realized that you have to face it before you still have a chance to overcome it. This was also the last mental barrier you needed to cross to continue forward. Your fear of death is one thing, but you canʼt have the fear of the unknown because you need to face it to reach the truth, and youʼll know soon how much this change in your mindset will affect you!”

Jacob was bewildered by Immortikaʼs profound words. He wasnʼt expecting this kind of response, and he thought Immortika would either try to pursue him or outright try to deny everything with some excuse.

However, now that he had thought about it, just as Immortika said, he had had these thoughts for a long time, and he was terrified that everything would turn out to be a lie or worse, Immortikaʼs scheme to turn him into its puppet or use him to achieve its own goal.

Now that he had finally gathered the courage to go through with this, confront his fears while abandoning the clear path of Immortality and searching for his own if his fear became the truth, he felt a huge burden had lifted from his mind. ”Iʼm flattered that you think so highly of me, but if this is your explanation for what is happening, then Iʼm afraid itʼs not enough!” Jacob coldly stated without hesitation.

”Hehehe, even if I want to explain, you wonʼt understand, and the truth is I really canʼt explain anything. You just have to find the truth yourself, or it wonʼt be the truth if told because my truth might differ from yours.

”This is the thing, actually; you have to face the unknown, and only then will you become what you want, or everything is meaningless. Still, let me clear your misunderstanding a little, and then you can decide on your own how to proceed forward.

”From the start, Iʼve told you that it is your journey towards the truth, and nothing can change that. First, Iʼve warned you many times that you canʼt speak a Universal Godly Scripture or even think about it so often, especially now that you have learned another Scriptureʼs name. You need to be very careful, or itʼll instantly guess everything.

”Second, the reason it wasnʼt able to detect me or see through you is because it didnʼt have its Universal Godly Artifact united with it. A Universal Godly Scripture is born born with its Universal Godly Artifact, and without its Universal Godly Artifact, you can say that it canʼt showcase its full abilities, and itʼs incomplete!” Immortika revealed.

Jacob was shocked at this moment and asked, ”Wait a moment, Universal Godly Artifact? Why am I only hearing about this name now? You never told me anything about it!”

”It wasnʼt important since you already had my Universal Godly Artifact with you since the start. A Universal Godly Artifact is part of a Universal Godly Scripture despite being a separate entity, so since you already got it, what is the point of knowing about it?” Immortika asked mischievously.

Jacob was speechless and didnʼt know how to react before he retorted, ”Are you kidding me? I always thought that Infinity Pendant was an inseparable part of you since your true form canʼt exist outside it. But now youʼre telling me the Infinity Pendant is a Universal Godly Artifact, and it can exist separately from you like that womanʼs scripture!? Does this also mean every scripture has an artifact like the Infinity Pendant?”

Jacob continued coldly, as he simply had too many questions, ”Furthermore, I also remembered you telling me when we first met that the Infinity Pendant will always return to you no matter where it is. Then why does it seem different from that scripture!?”
