[The Torn Pages of the Book of Eras... Chapter of Profanation]
[The Torn Pages of the Book of Eras... Chapter of Light]
’Chapter of Profanation,’ why does this na feel sowhat familiar?
Yang Qizhou’s smile froze on his face.
After a long while,
"Damn it, so the ’torn pages of the Book of Eras’ I randomly drew actually repeat Chapters? This is pure robbery."
He slamd the coffee table with a fist, thoroughly seething.
Initially, he thought he’d obtain two pieces of truth shrouded in the mist of history. But alas, one of the torn pages turned out to be identical to one he acquired earlier. His freebie joy was instantly halved.
Still unwilling to give up, he clicked open the ’Chapter of Profanation’ first...
And the result? Soul-crushing.
The content was indeed the sa—exposing the era of the wizard rule during the middle-to-late Third Epoch—identical to the torn page he had gotten before.
With a one-in-ninety-nine chance, he still managed to pull the sa thing.
In a certain sense, this could be considered a twisted kind of luck. Perhaps he should go buy a lottery ticket... What nonsense.
Yang Qizhou reassured himself, "Anyway, it’s all for free. In reality, I didn’t even use the Old Sacrifice for it. No need to get worked up. Stay calm, stay calm."
"￥##@@@..."
After venting, his mood improved. Yang Qizhou turned his gaze to the ’Chapter of Light.’
There’s still one page left!
He clicked it open.
[The dust-covered history slowly unfolds before your eyes]
[With the arrival of the ’Day of Fallen,’ the ’wizard’ era ca to an end. The Desecration Era reached its doomsday, yet this marked the true beginning of chaos]
[The Old Gods, once exiled and forced to roam outside the cosmos, began to return]
[Their realms began to manifest upon the old lands]
[Their authority began to rise upon these lands]
[They will inevitably return, recreating the dominion of the earliest epoch]
[The Endless Abyss is one of these]
[At the dawn of the Fourth Epoch, the ’Abyss Master’ and the ’Deception Lord’ joined forces, tearing the barriers apart, creating access to the Endless Abyss on the old lands]
[The Abyss Master manifested a projection with two-thirds of his power, descending upon the deep valleys in the North Realm]
[This caught the attention of the Ancient Gods who rose during the Fourth Epoch. Among the three primary Ancient Gods, the ’King of Nature’ also descended with a projection, wielding two-thirds of his power, engaging in ferocious combat with the returning Abyss Master]
[It was an unimaginably brutal divine war]
[Many Old Gods who followed the Abyss Master, and Ancient Gods who followed the King of Nature, perished in the battle. The land was left scarred and battered, with an unfathomably deep abyss carved as a result]
[Eventually,]
[The Abyss Master was defeated and fell back into the Endless Abyss; the King of Nature suffered grievous injuries. Even his divine realm was affected, and the authority and symbols he wielded were partially damaged.]
[As a precaution against the Endless Abyss’s resurgence,]
[The King of Nature, before departing, used the symbols of his dominion and the powers of his projection to create the ’Sky Blue Spear.’ Utilizing the principles of cosmic natural laws, he sealed the spaceti pathways. He later created the ’Bright Outpost,’ entrusting the North Realm Clan with the mission to guard the abyssal passage.]
[The story of light continues to unfold.]
[Though it will take another writer to tell that tale...]
This is... the true history of the Bright Outpost?
Yang Qizhou was a little stunned,
but soon couldn’t hold back and burst into uncontrollable laughter, "Bad luck often cos hand in hand with good luck! This saying is spot-on. While following the ’North Realm Abyss’ storyline, I accidentally uncovered the truth hidden in the mists of history. My luck is off the charts!"
"Goddess of Destiny, if you were in front of , I’d hug you—no, I’d have to kiss you right away."
"Hahaha, *cough cough cough cough cough cough*."
Maybe it was karmic payback, but laughing too hard caused him to choke.
After several breaths, he finally settled his airways. Yang Qizhou refocused on the ’Chapter of Light’ content...
"The Endless Abyss is governed jointly by the ’Abyss Master’ and the ’Deception Lord.’"
"That’s not particularly surprising,"
"But Harriet’s depiction of Bright Outpost’s past is entirely inconsistent with the Book of Eras’ record."
"The ’King of Nature’ didn’t simply slice up the Old Gods of the Endless Abyss like chopping waterlons. Quite the opposite—his projection fiercely battled the Abyss Master’s projection, sustaining severe injuries himself. Even his divine realm suffered damage,"
"So this... haha."
The veil shrouding Bright Outpost’s history had lifted, confirming previous speculations. The Ancient Gods were not as omnipotent as presud, and there were underlying issues behind the wizard’s annihilation.
Having processed this revelation,
Yang Qizhou ignored the rest and proceeded to refresh the ga text.
...
...
"You activated the power of the ’Dark Crow of Profane Fortune,’"
"The scenery before your eyes began to distort, twist, and shatter. You returned to the mont of your previous choice."
"You preserved the experience of the previous destiny line..."
"You contemplated your conversation with the old man."
"Though ’Asgard’ remains a majestic, inviolable fortress, where neither the ’Deceiving Apostle,’ ’Believers of Outside Gods,’ nor other evil powers can overtly thrive, this signifies the Ancient God faction still holds absolute dominance over the God’s Fortress."
"Yet they leave the malevolent presences lurking within ’Asgard.’"
"They allow this."
"Why would they allow this?"
"You pondered for a long ti without finding an answer, deciding to shelve the matter for now."
"Not only did you gain a trove of hidden information for free, you exploited the ’Destiny Store’ yet again. A despicable explorer always enjoys using shady ans. Once again, destiny’s crossroads lay before you."
"So this ti, will you head to the ’North Realm Abyss’ to figure out how to resolve the hostility of ’Sky Blue Spear’?"
ƒreewebηoveℓ
"Or will you linger in ’Asgard’?"
"Please make your decision first."
...
...
Is this even a question? Clearly, option one.
Stay in ’Asgard’ just to antagonize that old man again? No way. There’s no available save-load point this ti, better to play it safe.
But before making the choice, Yang Qizhou first opened the inventory screen. Seeing the count of Old Sacrifices: 6410, his grin stretched to his ears.
If you’re asking how joyful freeloading feels, let just say... it’s a happiness beyond your imagination.
"Aaah-choo,"
"Feeling a bit sleepy now. Perfect timing—’Dark Crow of Profane Fortune’ has been used four tis today; I’ll save the last chance for ergencies. After making my choice and moving the ga character to ’Bright Outpost,’ I’ll call it a night."
Thinking this through, Yang Qizhou quickly completed the operation.
The text refreshed again...
...
...
"Antagonizing the old man felt exhilarating, but the consequences were genuinely severe. You decide to roam around ’Asgard’ a bit, then head to the ’North Realm Abyss’ to see if there’s a way to resolve the hostility of ’Sky Blue Spear.’"
"You activated the effects of the ’Hidden God’s Clothes’..."
"Once again, faint whispers reached your ears. Although no terrifying phenona occurred this ti, the murmurs still stirred a sense of urgency within you."
"You ignored the whispers."
"You left ’Asgard.’"
"You traveled across the wilderness,"
"You kept traveling,"
"And thought back on the earlier events, musing how ’Dark Crow of Profane Fortune’ was absurdly overpowered—it even prevented that old man from recalling any of the freeloading incidents in his mory, as they had only t once. Talk about pulling a wool over soone’s eyes!"
"You considered... such a useful ability must be fully exploited."
"You passed the location where you previously encountered the ’Traveling Poet,’"
"You noticed most of the corpses strewn around had disappeared, though faint whispers still lingered. It seed as if so corpses were on the verge of becoming reanimated."
"Your scalp tingled, and you dared not linger."
"You moved forward."
"You kept moving forward."
"At so point, you faintly glimpsed the imposing silhouette of ’Bright Outpost’ looming like a great wall."
"You thought..."
"I wonder if ’Harriet’ and perhaps even ’Sarshit’ have noticed that many children under sixteen, including nurous others, have already succumbed to the pollution from the ’Endless Abyss.’"
"You..."
...
...
Aaah-choo.
Exhausted to the point he couldn’t keep playing, Yang Qizhou let out a big yawn and stopped refreshing the ga text.
But he didn’t go to bed imdiately; instead, he opened his inventory and began sorting today’s loot.
Old Sacrifice count: 6410.
Destiny Fire Bottle: 28
False Road Marker: 9
Interaction with Fellow: 4
Destiny Chain: 1
Items obtained: Dark Mask (Quasi-Excellent), Deep Sea Demon Whale’s Blood (Mortal Level), Devil’s Disguise (Excellent), Filth Beast’s Teeth (Excellent-Material), Polluted Hidden Star Compass (????), Foolish Snake Skin (Epic-Material), Black Abyss Flower (Quasi-Legendary-Material), Destiny Revelation (Wizard Mark-Quasi-Legendary)
Torn Pages of the Book of Eras: Chapter of Profanation, Chapter of Light.
Compared to ordinary players who struggle endlessly to obtain even one Mortal Item, it was truly an epic haul.
But then again?
A lot of trash in here.
"Should I put these up at the ’Destiny Exchange’ and sell them off? Might as well trade for so more Old Sacrifice."
"Sounds like a solid plan."
"Now what should I sell?"
Yang Qizhou began to seriously consider.
[Destiny Fire Bottle] could be put up for sale. Since it was freeloaded using ’Dark Crow of Profane Fortune,’ it might as well be exchanged for Old Sacrifice to exploit ’Destiny Store’ even further.
Let’s list 18 bottles first.
Pricing... 50 Old Sacrifice each.
"Half the price of ’Destiny Store.’ I dare anyone not to be tempted."
Next up is [False Road Marker]—list 5 of them, usual pricing, 50 Old Sacrifice each.
Yang Qizhou thought for a bit and also listed [Dark Mask] and [Deep Sea Demon Whale’s Blood] with respective prices of 300 Old Sacrifice and 200 Old Sacrifice.
"These two prices shouldn’t be too high, right?"
"Let’s wait and see,"
"If they don’t sell, I can always lower the prices later."
