Cursed Immortality

Chapter 949: Fruitful Endeavor!

At this moment, with Jacobʼs complete control over the Divine Soulless Pagoda, he followed Soullessʼs instruction and tried to shrink its size.

The next moment, the colossal structure trembled, creating powerful ripples in the Chaotic Space. Under Jacobʼs eyes, the pagoda was shrinking.

However, as the Divine Soulless Pagoda was shrinking, Jacob could clearly feel how the treasure worked, especially its core. Furthermore, everything within the Divine Soulless Pagoda was revealed to Jacob at this moment.

But Jacob had only time to glimmer at the secrets within because the Pagoda was now only slightly over a hundred meters tall. Now, Jacob could see its entire exquisite structure: it had ninety-nine floors, each covered in ghostly runic lines.

However, Jacobʼs eyes instantly fell over the pitch-black chains wrapped around the base of the Divine Soulless Pagoda, and those chains seemed broken as their edges dandled.

Moreover, the moment Jacob laid his eyes on those chains, his cursed heart suddenly stirred on its own as it started to pulse furiously as if it was about to burst out of his chest!

Jacob nearly lost control of his body but quickly controlled his Cursed Heart and calmed it down. But the shock Jacob just received was clear as day, and he knew what he felt just now: it was fear!

This was the first time his cursed heart had reacted in this manner, and Jacob knew it was all because of those black chains. He became instantly wary.

”What are you doing!? Only three seconds are left. Quickly store me in your Nexus Point!” Soullessʼs furious yet anxious voice jolts Jacob awake from his stupor.

He looked at the tiny Divine Soulless Pagoda hovering in front of him. Although it was now only a centimeter in size, Jacob was still looking at the chains at its base that had shrunken with it.

Still, Jacob knew he couldnʼt mess up now and needed to act, or heʼd miss his window, and Soulless would be bloody for him as well.

”Donʼt resist!” Jacob sounded anxious.

At this moment, Soulless sensed a strong attraction force, and the Divine Artifact Spirit thought it was coming from Jacobʼs nexus point despite discovering the strangeness of this attraction force.

After all, Soulless was a divine treasure and could clearly be distinguished between different attraction forces. But Soulless had really used all the stored energy in itself to enter Jacobʼs nexus point.

Furthermore, it only had 10 seconds; instead, it had 15 seconds. Since each second would waste a considerable amount of power, it didnʼt want to waste all of it because it would fall into a dormant state for a long time if that happened. Unless Jacob created his own Godʼs Crown, Jacobʼs soul force and magic energy were useless to Soulless.

But Soulless didnʼt want that since it had plans for Jacob, and Godʼs Crown was a crucial part of it.

However, Jacob wasted three seconds because of his Cursed Heartʼs strange reaction to those chains. Soulless became extremely anxious, so Soulless didnʼt bother to investigate that attraction force since itʼd directly waste two more seconds, leaving it with only three more.

Moreover, Soulless didnʼt even think that Jacob could bypass the Divine Accord or even remotely harm the Divine Soulless Pagoda while Soulless still had its energy left. It can easily wipe away Jacob just by ʼaccidentallyʼ releasing a sliver of its divine might!

Thatʼs why Soulless didnʼt resist the attraction force at all, and thus, this became the reason for the start of Soullessʼs downfall. The next moment, the Divine Soulless Pagoda appeared in endless darkness, eerily still, as if time had lost its meaning here!

But it wasnʼt Nexus Point, and Soulless realized it instantly; the Mortal, the ant, the thrall…had tricked him!

However, before Soulless can call upon its wrath, it suddenly starts to lose consciousness. Despite having enough energy to wipe away an entire elemental galaxy, Soulless couldnʼt even tap into any power. It felt so helpless…so helpless that it suddenly reminded him of that time when that terrifying ʼexistenceʼ locked it ʼthere.ʼ

This was the last thing that came into Soullessʼs mind before it fell into a dormant state.

At this moment, Jacob started to lose the protective layer and instantly made a wish before the space current ripped him apart. The sudden tremor caused the Divine Soulless Pagoda to be still there, so Jacob wanted to leave. He didnʼt even have to check on his ʼtrophy.ʼ

Since Jacob had already summoned the Cursed Immortality and wrote the wish beforehand, he only needed to say those two words.

”Carry through!” Jacob instantly proceeded as he naturally used his Lifespan as a payment instead of his Infinity Blood since he couldnʼt afford to be in a weaker state while still in the Ghost Domain.

The next moment, Jacob instantly vanished, and his body started to twist as he activated the Gluttony Mask!

Thereupon, with a flash, Jacob arrived at a familiar gloomy hall filled with negative life force and instantly felt comforting coldness wash over his entire body. He was sitting on the throne of the Soulless at this moment, and he had returned as the Soulless Ghost King!

Jacob felt massive relief as everything worked out just fine, and then ecstasy flickered in his ghostly eyes as he looked inside his Infinity Pendant and found the miniature Divine Soulless Pagoda remained motionless there, just like everything else in the pendant!

ʼJust as I thought, even if itʼs a Divine Treasure, itʼs not a match for a Universal Godly Artifact. I planned on dragging it into the Infinite Space, but when I found I had complete control over the treasure, sending it into the storage space instead seemed much safer since I had to let it enter my Nexus Point to do that!

ʼAfter all, itʼll become completely immobilized in the Storage Space, and I need time to recover my exhausted soul force and magic energy before Iʼll deal with it.ʼ

Jacobʼs eyes flickered with derision and killing intent, ʼNonetheless, now that it had fallen into my hands, there is no escape from it. Itʼll either become an obedient tool, or Iʼll dismantle it gradually. I must also figure out why my Cursed Heart almost went wild because of those chains.

ʼStill, this trip to the Ghost Domain turned out to be even more profitable than I had expected. I got a Divine Treasure from it with an ancient legacy of some extremely powerful god rank figure…ʼ

At this moment, Jacob suddenly noticed something and looked towards the second empty throne. A shadowy figure materialized with an icy glare.

It was the Soul Ghost King, and for some reason, Jacob sensed something amiss because he could sense a hint of killing intent from her!
