Cursed Immortality

Chapter 538 Scripture of Blank

?The Night Hunterʼs Aura and Spirit was an extremely rare Universal Scripture that could be cultivated with all the elements and compatible with both aura and spirit paths.

This universal scripture was a stealth-type scripture with five abilities for both spirit and aura, and the rectified stars needed for them were 900.

Jacob was really fascinated by this scripture and wanted to cultivate those abilities. Still, he needed to have either aura or spirit glyph to cultivate it, which poured cold water on his expectations.

Then he put it away and checked the Scripture of Blank that he got from Nelsen, which was also like the Night Hunter and compatible with every element.

However, when he started to read the details of the Scripture of Blank, he was startled because it was not what he was expecting it to be.

The Scripture of Blank is actually a magic ability scripture that could help a person gain a fake aura or spirit glyph called the Blank Aura Glyph or Blank Spirit Glyph!

However, unlike the realm Aura and Spirit Glyphs, this Blank Glyph would emerge within a magic core, not etch on the skull, and this glyph canʼt etch any abilities like the real one. Its only purpose was to provide either aura or spirit!

But for Jacob, the ability to etch was not as important as having aura and spirit because the only disadvantage he had over unique rank is they had either aura and spirit while he only had plain mana.

If he could have an aura or spirit, that disadvantage would vanish in smoke, and he could be a true unique rank and also raise his power to new heights!

Jacob also suspected that Nelsen had already cultivated this scripture and had either aura or spirit, and thatʼs why he was able to hunt down a unique rank beast in the trial!

ʼThat old fox was really hiding it well. Just where did he get this? Furthermore, this scripture could grant any type of glyph one desires. This means that if someone had an innate aura glyph, they could also have a spirit glyph, and they also didnʼt need to be a unique rank at all. Even star or epic star-rank magic cores could form these glyphs.

ʼIt is even more advantageous to me since I have three magic cores. I can have three types of auras or spirits or either have both. No, wait, I might also have a natural spirit glyph from the hex core, so it should have four glyphs. And once I cultivate the Art of Nature to its full potential, I would have six magic cores…ʼ

Just thinking about it made Jacobʼs heart race, as the Scripture of Blank, was tailor-made for him, and he could do wonders with it.

A content smile appeared on his face, ʼIt seemed the old fox was really sincerer about making amends. Although the zodiac oath is not in effect, I know it would be nigh impossible to find that old fox since he would flee with Ellie the moment he came out from the champion space, so hunting them would be akin to searching a needle in a haystack.

ʼBut now it seemed I could forgive them a little and give them a chance to run. However, if they ever appeared before me, Iʼll eat them alive. As for Lucy, she has been AWOL since the trial ended, which means she is also hiding. Even though I got some of her hideouts out from her guard in the trial, she is not as important as that ogre bastard.ʼ

Jacob smiled coldly as he still wanted to hunt down both Ellie and Lucy, but he knew it would take too much time to search for them, especially after meeting with Nelsen.

They might be hiding in the star ocean, so he didnʼt bother and focused on the target in the view.

So, without any further ado, he begins to cultivate the Scripture of Blank with his fire core first. He chose to form the Blank Aura Glyph of Fire because of fireʼs destructive properties, and it would directly raise his attacking power.

But forming this blank aura glyph would take about six to twelve months, and he needed to meditate while channeling his mana into the fire core. Still, he wasnʼt in any hurry since he had already played the dice, and now it was Captain Free Swordʼs turn.

Furthermore, he was also planning someone before starting his voyage to unique plains after dealing with Captain Free Sword.

Four days later, when Jacob was meditating while channeling his mana into the fire core with Scripture of Blank, Sofieʼs voice rang outside the room, ”My lord, heʼs calling.”

Jacob opened his eyes, and a fiery green lightning flashed past his eyes and said, ”Come in.”

Sofie appeared in a violet dress, looking extremely beautiful as she had specially dressed up for someone.

She flaunts her sexy curves while walking, but Jacob remains expressionless, making her secretly depressed. But she didnʼt dare to show it and get to the point, ”This device was just blinking, but I didnʼt activate it.”

Jacob nodded, ”Good, now call him back and just listen. You just need to say, as I wrote in the star watch like the last time. You just need to keep your image as the representative of the Dark City, and you need to be absolutely confident there is no room for error.”

Sofie solemnly nodded before she activated the vermin transponder.

Soon, Captain Free Swordʼs cold voice sounded, ”Iʼve thought about our last chat and since you want to meet and discuss business with me in person, I would be a disrespect on my part since the fault lies with me.

”But forgive me for lack of courage. You see, Iʼm a pirate and timid by nature, and Dark City is not to be trifled with. You made it very clear last time. So, how about we choose to meet in the star ocean close to the epic plains? Iʼll come alone, and you do the same.

”Since you have my men, I wonʼt try anything. In fact, Iʼm very interested in forming a partnership with the Dark City, for it only brings endless benefits for both of us. There is no need to turn hostile for that little skirmish. What do you think, Miss?”

ʼJust as I expected.ʼ Jacobʼs lips curled in disdain as he knew Captain Free Sword wonʼt dare to enter the Dark City after what happened with his men.

That guy might appear to be arrogant, but he wasnʼt a fool. The star ocean was Captain Free Swordʼs territory, so he would only feel safer there, and if he could really form a friendly relationship with Dark City, he would not let this chance pass by either.

So, he wonʼt do anything unless he wants to rot in the epic plains forever or find another Jacob to do his bidding, which was no longer an option since he knew that plan was filled with flaws after what happened to his men. He would no longer trust another pawn.

A display appeared on Jacobʼs star watch before words began to appear, and Sofieʼs eyes shimmered as she replied.

”Alright, since you are willing to listen, Iʼll give you a chance. But Iʼm not coming alone and bringing one of my close assistants with me. You can also bring another person, just to be fair.

”Letʼs meet on the boundary of epic star ocean in seven days. Oh, and donʼt you dare send an imposter since Iʼve already obtained your appearance from one of your men. What do you think?” Sofie calmly stated what Jacob wrote.

Captain Free Sword didnʼt reject either and replied in agreement, ”Very well, Iʼll see you there, miss!
