Cursed Immortality

Chapter 827  The Mysterious of Universal Godly Scriptures!

Jacob became silent after hearing Immortikaʼs derided question because, just as Immortika articulated, even if he knew the true origin of the Gluttony Mask, he wasnʼt going to give it up. In fact, he would be over the moon after discovering that he had acquired a Universal Godly Artifact!

However, now that he knew the entire story and relationship behind a Universal Godly Scripture and the Universal Godly Artifact, he knew that as long as he had it, heʼd eventually run into that woman.

If he had known this, he wouldʼve been more hesitant to use the Gluttony Mask, but alas, he had already become its master, and now that he knew what kind of treasure it was, he was even more unwilling to give it up or stop using it.

Still, there were too many risks involved, especially if this mask became too strong and alerted the Chaotic Darkness. After all, the mask was an advanced, unique rank treasure right now, and he didnʼt know what would happen if it became a Fable Legendary or even a Legendary King State Treasure!

After mulling it over for a while, Jacob finally speaks again, ”At which rank can the Gluttony Mask escape my will?”

”Hehehehe… see, youʼre unwilling to give up a Universal Godly Artifact. Well, not like Iʼm blaming you since only a fool would give it up and leave for that woman to take it back since once it landed in her hand, sheʼll be almost unstoppable and become an untraceable ghost!

”Only in someone like your hand is there a chance that she wonʼt be able to acquire it. As for how to keep it that way, you need to ensure the Gluttony Mask never surpasses your soul rank by an entire rank.

”Like you canʼt let it become a Gravitational Collapse/Legendary Noble State Treasure before your soul reaches the Gravitational Collapse state. Furthermore, once the little nightmare awakens, your soul defense will also rise, so the limit should increase as well. In the end, it all depends on how strong your will is, and the will originate from your soul and your determination!”

Jacob nodded in realization before his eyes flickered coldly as he asked, ”What if I killed her? Would I be able to get that scripture for myself? Can someone have more than one Universal Godly Scriptures?”

”Whao… you sure have ambition. I donʼt think there is someone in the entirety of the Zodiac Plains who had ever come in contact with two Universal Godly Scriptures, much less claimed them.

”But let me burst your bubble. Itʼs impossible because once you kill an inheritor of a scripture, the scripture will vanish with its inheritorʼs death, and there is no stopping it unless you can go against the Will of Zodiac Plains.

”The only way to get it is if the Inheritor of that scripture is willing to transfer it, and even then, the scripture has to be willing as well. As for if someone can develop in more than one scripture at the same time, weʼll talk about it once you have it.

”Besides, cultivating a single scripture is already impossible, and each scripture has its own unique way to progress, and here you want to add another one in the mix? Hehehehe…you should consider what youʼre wishing for!” Immortika stated in an ambiguous yet humorous tone.

Jacob was astounded, as this was another thing he didnʼt know about. He was always under the impression that if others killed the inheritor of a Universal Divine Scripture, theyʼd be able to claim it for themselves. Yet it wasnʼt the case at all, and he had again underestimated the existence of these scriptures.

Furthermore, Immortikaʼs last words quickly shattered his ambition since, as Immortika said, he already had his hands full with cursed immortality. Even if he could acquire and cultivate another scripture, he might not be able to handle it. Nonetheless, this didnʼt change the fact that the other inheritors of the scriptures werenʼt on friendly terms with him. In fact, they were enemies with the power to go against him, and he knew they would also have the same point of view. Furthermore, Jacobʼs many doubts were answered today, and he learned a great deal about the scriptures and their artifacts. Still, some questions remained unanswered and became an even bigger mystery in his mind, especially about the Zodiacs.

”What kind of power does that scripture have?” Jacob asked.

”This is the only thing I canʼt tell you; in fact, any scripture will have the same answer because the scriptures didnʼt know about each other core legacy, or whatʼs the point in having different scriptures if other scripture knows about each other prowess and secrets? All the scriptures know about what kind of power we hold, and thatʼs it. But I canʼt tell you even that unless you want to pay the price and alert ʼitʼ too!”

Jacobʼs eyes dilated, but he didnʼt pursue the matter since Immortikaʼs words made sense, and he had already guessed this much on his own.

”Alright, Iʼm satisfied with your explanation, and if you had just told me all this from the start, we wouldnʼt have this little skirmish between us. I want to trust you, but you donʼt give me the chance. In fact, you seemed to want me to doubt you, and even if youʼre doing it for some sick reason or to help me understand something, trust me, itʼll only affect both of us negatively!” Jacob solemnly stated as he was sincere with his words.

However, Immortika replied devilishly, ”Hahahahaha… whatʼs the fun in that?” ʼWhat was I expecting from this vexatious book?ʼ Jacob shook his head as he decided to drop this matter since he knew he was barking up the wrong tree and speak with a hint of anticipation, ”Last question, will the Infinity Blood Sacrifice work on a Universal Godly Scripture or its inheritor?”

”Of course, itʼll work! But the thing is, do you have the price to pay for it?” Immortika asked playfully.

Jacobʼs eyes flared. He didnʼt think this was possible, and he quickly said, ”Even if I wish to destroy a scripture or directly cut off its connection with its artifact and change the rules for it?”

”Hhahahahahaha…. Again, can you handle the cost for this kind of wish?” Immortika asked again without denying anything.

However, Jacob didnʼt care since he had already confirmed what he wanted. He was more excited, and without hesitation, he activated…

”Infinity Blood Sacrifice!”
