Though the demonic thoughts pertained to a five-star mission, it could not be completed without one’s life intact.
Demonic thoughts were unlike anything else. If one was affected, their physical body in reality could face detrintal effects. It was extrely dangerous.
“No way!” Hu Xiaotian imdiately shook his head.
“These demonic thoughts have been battling within for twenty years, I despise them from the core of my being. If I allow them to recover, they will co back for sooner or later.”
With that, he took out a storage ring, waved his hand, and a surge of energy swept the Demonic Source Pearl into the ring before passing it to Su Nan.
“I will keep the pearl in this storage ring for now. As long as you don’t open the ring, the demonic thoughts, even if they recover, won’t be able to break free within a month.”
“I’ll find a way to deal with what cos after.
The confinent would only last a month?
Su Nan felt a sinking feeling in his heart, suddenly understanding why the countdown for the task was a month.
If no solution to the demonic thoughts was found in a month, they would break free on their own.
Nonetheless, he was not overly worried.
It’s just a five-star task. If it ca down to it, he wouldn’t do it.
If the countdown to the task was about to end and Hu Xiaotian found a solution, then helping him complete a five-star mission would obviously be best.
Otherwise, if no solution was found, he would just throw the ring far away.
After all, Hu Xiaotian was the one who would be out of luck.
With these thoughts in mind, Su Nan accepted the ring.
And that marked the end of the matter with the demonic thoughts, for the ti being.
“It’s been a long ti since I’ve been out and about, I wonder if those old tirs still rember ,” Hu Xiaotian mused, a look of anticipation in his eyes.
“Young friend, it’s been over twenty years since I’ve been out, I need to et so old friends. I’ll take my leave first. If you need anything, you can find in Tianyun City,” he said.
Without waiting for Su Nan to respond, Hu Xiaotian disappeared from the cave. “Tianyun City? That’s perfect,” Su Nan nodded.
Upon leaving the cave, the ghosts that had been scattered across the mountain forest had completely vanished, evidently taken away by Hu Xiaotian.
At the sa ti,
at the foot of the mountain, precisely when the ghosts vanished, Ji Changfeng and others instantly sensed that sothing was off.
“All the ghosts have vanished. Could it be that the Outsider was successful?” Ji Changfeng speculated.
“That quickly?” Song Zhi and the others were even more surprised.
In their opinion, the Tiger Demon was a King-level Great Demon. Even if the outsider had a way to draw out the demonic thoughts, it was not sothing that could be achieved in a short while.
If it was really that easy, the Tiger Demon wouldn’t have been troubled for so many years.
The three exchanged glances, eventually sighing at the Outsider’s unusual thods.
“Brother Ye must have succeeded.”
“Quickly, check the ranking list. I wonder how much Brother Ye’s ranking will increase this ti.”
“He’s definitely going to reach the Spirit Level!”
On the other side, several players were overjoyed.
At this mont, Su Nan changed back into his persona as Zhang Yang. Using the Across the Heavens Shift, he appeared out of thin air at the place he had previously vanished from.
Seeing him appear, a few players bragged, “Zhang Yang, you’ve co at the perfect ti. Brother Ye’s task has already been completed.” “Is that so? Then, congratulations to him,” Su Nan smiled.
The few players were even more smug.
They did not know that at this mont, Li Ye was incredibly grim-faced.
The mont he heard the tiger’s roar, his mind was on edge, a mix of anxiety and anticipation. He was prepared to face the Tiger Demon at any ti.
But wait as he might, instead of the Tiger Demon, he was t with a prompt from the ga:
[The second phase of your Mainline Task, “Curse of Demonic Thought,” has been completed by another player. The third phase has started. Please check your task panel.]
“Completed by another player?”
Li Ye was startled for a mont, taking a while to grasp the aning behind the prompt.
A breath later, he was jolted awake, realizing the implications of the
notification.
“Impossible! How could anyone besides trigger this task?” “And is there any other player on this mountain besides ?” Ignoring the wandering ghosts around him, Li Ye abruptly stood up, his eyes reflecting disbelief.
Hastily opening his task panel and seeing that the second phase of his “Curse of Demonic Thought” task had truly disappeared, he was completely stunned. The changes in his tasks did not afford him the luxury of disbelief!
“SO, what exactly is happening?” Li Ye was in shock, and he even started suspecting whether the ga had a bug.
However, it wasn’t over yet.
Not long after, he noticed that the wandering ghosts around him seed to be recalled, disappearing into smoke.
In the blink of an eye, the ghosts that had filled the mountain forest completely vanished.
Such changes were clearly telling him that it wasn’t a ga bug, but rather that his task had indeed been completed by soone else.
“Did soone trigger this task before and reach Tiger Roar Town even earlier?”
Li Ye was not willing to accept this, but he had no choice but to accept the reality in front of him.
“No matter who you are, since you’ve taken my task, this isn’t over! Li Ye’s face was dark, his gaze landed on another mainline task, a look of determination in his eyes.
The “Curse of Demonic Thought” task had nothing to do with him anymore, and he could only rely on another task now!
Li Ye descended the mountain in a daze.
Seeing him return, a few players quickly rushed over.
“Congratulations on completing the task, Brother Ye!
Li Ye didn’t pay any attention to them, instead, his gaze landed on Su Nan, and a thought suddenly sprang up in his mind.
Could it be him?
Li Ye was doubtful, but he imdiately shook his head, negating this possibility.
In his view, Su Nan had accidentally arrived in Tiger Roar Town; he couldn’t possibly trigger the “Curse of Demonic Thought” task..
