Just wanted to wish everyone a happy New Year.
Upon seeing the completion of the task on the panel, Du You ignored the wailing of the Mother of Shadows and loudly announced, "We’ve completed the first stage, let’s head back to rest." Du You made a sweeping gesture, and the two jubilant sisters left with him.
As usual, they moved about eight miles away, set up a tent, and imdiately fell asleep inside.
Because of the Mother of Shadows, the surrounding area was extrely safe, devoid of a single demon. Normally, no one would venture here, in their eyes, the Demon Swamp was not a nice place, but posed no threat either.
Du You’s summoned creatures were already guarding the group outside. Du You had noticed that Xiaozi seed truly different from them. Unlike the other unemotional summoned creatures, she didn’t need rest and never appeared tired.
Usually, Xiaozi behaved very much like a normal creature and was exceptionally intelligent.
This ti, Du You suddenly realized Xiaozi’s energy was endless. She fought alongside him continuously without ever sleeping. Apart from resting to recover her physical strength, Xiaozi never seed to tire or beco bored.
Of course, other summoned creatures too had to rest to recover their energy depleted in battle. But their never-tiring spirits were not like that of normal creatures, giving Du You so different guesses.
Perhaps, Xiaozi really couldn’t be considered a normal creature.
This ti, Du You and the others slept for a whole day. Upon waking up, Du You found that the two sisters had already left, always waking up earlier than him, costing him so rest.
Du You muttered to himself as he walked out. Over ti, the two sisters had grown accustod to Du You due to the fact they had been sleeping together. They no longer reacted as bashfully at the sight of him as they did at first.
After eating, Du You opened the panel to view the tasks listed.
Hidden Task: Purification of the Mother of Shadows Stage 2, Profaned Artifact Sacrifice. The existing demonic power within a ten kiloter radius isn’t enough, additional demon crystal cores are needed. Please supplent with ten thousand demon crystal cores.
Upon seeing this task, Du You almost spit out a mouthful of water. Ten thousand demon crystal cores? That ant defeating ten thousand rank-two demons; killing such demons was no easy task.
Though he had gathered many demon crystal cores recently, it was nowhere near that number.
Because he had so many demon crystal cores, even his personal space couldn’t contain them all. Hence, he had been storing them in a box held by the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs. During intense fights, the Death Scorpion would temporarily burrow the box into the ground, only digging it up after the battle.
Du You roughly rembered that he only had a little over eight thousand, far short of the needed ten thousand.
However, there was another new task on the panel at this point.
Hidden Task: Clean up the Demon Swamp, Complete.
He had unwittingly completed a new task, which felt exhilarating. Du You pulled out the task reward box with a smile saying, "At least it wasn’t for nothing, let’s see what’s in it."
Du You pulled out a bottle, inside was a vivid red liquid.
Demon Bloodline: Upon use, the user will obtain a demon bloodline that allows for advancent.
Du You was taken aback, he hadn’t expected to gain a bloodline power. This was a basic bloodline power; to acquire a higher grade demon bloodline, a transition using this basic bloodline was required.
If one directly used a high-grade bloodline, there would be a high chance of failure. If failure occurred, who knows what would happen. Especially with bloodlines of Chaos Beings such as this, the danger was greater.
"If I rember correctly, these bloodline powers are incredibly valuable, but are basically unseen."
At that mont, Du You felt he was about to strike it rich. Unfortunately, he did not like the bloodline of a demon. The power of a demon was too chaotic, and completely unsuitable for himself who adhered to the pure path of darkness.
As for the two sisters, it was even less likely. Both of them had the power of demon extermination. It was apparent there would be a hundred percent conflict with the powers of a demon. If they used this bloodline power, their existing powers might rebel.
Since it wasn’t useful, he’d store it away. However, given the grandiosity of the task, there was clearly more than just one item in the box.
Du You continued searching and quickly found over two thousand crystal coins. With these, his reserve of crystal coins had increased substantially.
"Haha! As expected, the items I get from my tasks always suit best. This has proved really useful." As Du You pulled out the third item, he found it was a skill.
Skill Scroll: Dark Fla Arrow (rank 2), constructs a volley of arrows from dark flas to attack targets in front (Level 11, 8 stars).
This was a spell of considerable star rating. It wasn’t an archery skill but a magic spell, a magic curse. It matched perfectly with his own abilities, and more importantly, it could be used to restructure his Holy Light Arrow Array.
Now that he had the Dark Elent Stone and the skill scroll, coupled with the nearly ten thousand crystal coins, all the necessary preparations were complete. The last unconverted skill he had could finally be transford.
The final uncoordinated part of his abilities could finally be eradicated.
Du You imdiately started the transformation without doing anything else. The two sisters looked at each other, rose to their feet, and walked to opposite sides to guard. The summoned creatures also acted in unison, isolating the surrounding area.
With a large number of crystal coins consistently burning, Du You’s final skill finally began its transformation. In his Spiritual Sea, the pure white gem lted away, its holy power was stripped, bit by bit replaced by the power of darkness. A new dark gem ford, and Du You felt a certain pressure suppressing him gradually dissipate.
The dark magic power that had been running smoothly throughout his body now flowed even more freely.
The transformation consud less than Du You had thought, rely burning about five to six thousand crystal coins before the new skill was completely transford.
"Looking at this effect, let’s call it Dark Fla Arrow Array." Du You lazily changed only two words in the na.
Dark Fla Arrow Array: Constructs arrows from dark attribute flas to attack targets within a specific area. Damage dealt to light creatures is doubled, whilst damage to black creatures is reduced by 20%. Number of arrows (Level*10) (Level 13, 10 Stars).
Du You bitter-sweat, "Now I don’t have any skills to counter dark creatures. I wonder if dark skills can counter-act evil creatures. If not, I will have to rely on the two of them in the future."
Du You never thought that one day his abilities would beco this specialized. Thank goodness the damage to dark creatures wasn’t halved but just reduced by 20%.
