Cursed Immortality

Chapter 844  Legendary Plains of Middle Galaxies!

The Middle Galaxies, also known as the Legendary/Middle Plains, were unimaginably vast, so vast that the Lesser Galaxies or Lesser Plains couldnʼt compare to them.

The first difference between the Lesser and Middle Plains was their arrangement. Unlike the Lesser Plains, where each layer was divided by the Star Ocean and the Star Ocean Boundary of the Unique Plains, the Middle Plains of each Middle Galaxy were a continent of an unimaginable size.

It is so large that a quasi-legend rank canʼt reach the end of it, even in its entire life, even if it flies in the air at full speed its whole life, not to mention the dangers hidden in these vast plains. Only a Legendary Rank was qualified to move around here!

Thatʼs why these twelve continents were known as the Great Cosmic Continents and Legendary Plains, and the Star Ocean was what divided them. However, unlike the star ocean of the lesser galaxies, which was made with water, this Star Ocean of the Middle Plains was literally a space ocean filled with stars, and the danger it held was extremely deadly, even to legendary ranks!

Moreover, these werenʼt the only wonders of the middle plains; there were also the life planets, elemental planets, and even galaxies that could birth in any of the Great Cosmic Continents, and legendary ranks competed to claim ownership of them.

At this moment, a hollow, cold wind sweeps across the vast, barren land. The sky above was a swirling mass of purplish-black clouds, occasionally pierced by veins of eerie green lightning that illuminated the valley in brief, unsettling flashes.

The constant twilight casts long shadows over the broken ground, cracked and littered with the remains of ancient battles as if it were a graveyard for countless forgotten wars.

In this godforsaken place, a white runic circle appeared, and the next moment, a two-meter-tall figure clad in a dark windbreaker and his head covered under a long hood suddenly appeared before the circle vanished!

Two bright glows illuminate the darkness under his hood, casting an eerie shadow upon his skeletal face. The bright golden flames burning within his hollow sockets flickered as he observed his new surroundings.

ʼAm I in the legendary plains now?ʼ Jacob wondered with a hint of uncertainty since everything happened so quickly that he didnʼt have the chance to prepare himself before he abruptly teleported away from the Path of Legend and appeared in this godforsaken place. The first thing he felt was the air here was thick with the stench of rot and death, completely devoid of oxygen or life-giving energy. But dense magic energy seemed to be everywhere, and this magic energy continued with the elements of darkness and death!

After meeting with the twelve wisps of the zodiac, Jacob became very sensitive to their elements, and death was one such element.

The death element belonged to Sagittarius, and it was one of the elementals that had left a deep impression on him. He still remembered encountering an undead who was under the control of the death element in the second last tower of Sagittariusʼs trial, and that guy was terrifying!

This place was filled with the death element, and Jacob mused that any living beings who dared to enter it would most likely find themselves choking on the oppressive miasma that hung in the air and their vitality rapidly draining. This was the effect of the death element!

Still, oxygen or not, it doesnʼt matter to Jacob since he was a living being who had transformed into this skeletal form. He can breathe if he wants to and not breathe at the same time.

But since he had always been a living being and still considered himself one, he never lost the habit of breathing, which was his primal instinct. But now, it seemed he might have to get used to not breathing, which was somewhat strange but did not bother him much.

What was important was that he needed to know where he had been teleported. Although he had some general knowledge of the middle galaxies and the twelve Great Cosmic Continents, they were so vast that no one had ever been able to explore them all, and only the legendary kings might have this knowledge.

Furthermore, the Great Cosmic Continents were fraught with dangers, and there were some forbidden areas that even the legendary kings dreaded entering.

Jacob looked at the purplish-black clouds crackling with green lightning; as far as he could see, those clouds were everywhere. He turned serious and started to walk towards the south.

At this moment, he took out his Star Watch, which he hadnʼt worn in years, and hoped to connect with the Star Network. After all, if he was in the legendary plains, the Star Network also existed here, and it was still the primary source of communication.

Not only that, but the star network was far more advanced, creating a virtual world known as the Virtual Star World, which connected all the twelve Great Cosmic Continents together.

But the star watches that granted passage in this Virtual Star World were unique to the legendary plains—they were called the Soul Star Watches!

However, for some reason, participants in the middle galaxies in the Path of Legend werenʼt allowed to bring Soul Star Watches, or Jacob wouldʼve already had many.

Now, Jacob could only hope that the star watch he brought from the lesser galaxy of Taurus would work here.

Jacob activated the star watch, and a prompt popped up, making his eyes flicker helplessly, ʼOut of Range? So, are these star watches useless here? Well, it seems Iʼm on my own. I just wanted to see where I am before I start my long seclusion. But since I canʼt and this place seemed quite barren, Iʼll open up a cave resident here and only come out once I complete the second phase!ʼ Jacob instantly made his decision as he put away the star watch and continued to walk. However, he instantly remembered something at this moment and called, ”Cursed Immortality!”

”Hahahaha… do you want me to welcome you in the middle galaxies?” Immortikaʼs impish, eerie voice rang in his head.

Jacob ignored the cursed bookʼs meaningless remark and questioned solemnly, ”Donʼt play dumb with me. You know what I want to know. What is that Astrolabe that transformed from the Legendary Master Key, and what is the purpose behind that announcement in the end?”

”Hehehehe, if I say I canʼt tell you now, will you believe me?” Immortika asked mischievously.

Jacobʼs expression instantly darkened, ”Do you really want to do this? I just need to make a wish, and Iʼll know what that thing is. I just donʼt want to waste my lifespan or blood on this wish, and since you canʼt tell me, I can tell this information should be quite extraordinary. Just donʼt push me; give me a satisfactory answer, and Iʼll be content. I just want to know what this thing is and how to use it.”

Now that Jacob knew the power of the Infinity Blood Sacrifice, he wasnʼt afraid of Immortika withholding crucial information. Itʼs just that the price of those wishes still makes him hesitant. But if this information were crucial enough to threaten his life, he didnʼt mind exchanging some lifespan to acquire it.

”Hehehe, how scary~!” Immortika didnʼt sound flustered at all, ”Alright, Iʼll give you a single piece of advice; whether you heed it or not is up to you. Itʼs not like Iʼm the one losing my lifespan for acquiring something youʼll get in due time.

”My advice for you is to continue to do what youʼre planning to do. Once you complete the second phase, youʼll be qualified to know what that thing is. But if you insist on knowing it, all youʼll know is youʼre still too weak to do anything with it!”
