Chapter 563: Chapter 302: Du Qi Yuan’s Experience

“Luck! So the demonic thought was unaffected by the power of the Ancient God Tomb due to its good luck.”

Su Nan realized this, his envy evident.

Luck is related to Qi Luck. He had various kinds of Qi Luck blessings, and he was confident that he could surpass most people in terms of Qi Luck.

But when compared to this demonic thought, he seemed to fall short.

“Since the demon beast wasn’t affected by the power of the Ancient God Tomb due to its good luck.”

“If the demonic thought encounters a disaster, would it fall into the Illusion Realm?”

An idea suddenly birthed in Su Nan’s mind.

What would happen if he used the Art of Fate on the demonic thought?

The Art of Fate he casted using Qi Luck could bring the targeted person’s calamity sooner. Essentially, it diminishes the subject’s Qi Luck, causing a massive loss of Qi Luck.

If he could cause the demon beast to experience a massive loss of Qi Luck, it would be highly likely to be affected by the power of the Ancient God Tomb.

With this idea, he subconsciously searched for the thread of fate between himself and the demon beast amongst the many others he had.

He quickly found the thread that belonged to the demon beast.

However, it was not the time to act now.

He continued to look at the foreknowledge.

[As you descend along the passage of the Ancient God Tomb, you will come across a step ten meters further. The instant you stand on that step, you will once again be influenced by the power of the Ancient God Tomb.]

[This time, you find yourself in Daxuan Royal City a year ago. You know that to leave this place, you have to either kill everyone you know or forget everyone you know. You chose the latter.]

[Thirty minutes later, you break free from the influence of the Illusion Realm and continue to descend the staircase. To your delight, it seems that the demon beast, fearing the power within the Ancient God Tomb, does not pursue you into it.]

[Two hours later, you’ve passed four steps, entering four Illusion Realms. The span of time in the Illusion Realm has grown from one year to ten, then fifty, and finally a hundred years.]

[Fortunately, You have a secret technique that allows you to temporarily forget memories, and each time you can leave the Illusion Realm.]

[What worries you is that the deeper you plunge into the Ancient God Tomb, the weaker your connection with your avatar becomes, as the power of the tomb gradually obstructs your connection.]

“Can the power of the Ancient God Tomb block my connection with my avatar?”

Su Nan’s face darkens; this was not good news.

Firstly, once the connection between him and his avatar is severed completely, it would be impossible for him to acquire any secret techniques or ancient scriptures from the Illusion Realm via his avatar.

Secondly, without a connection to his avatar, how would he control it to perform the upcoming Blood Sacrifice Ritual?

Fortunately, his other self had also considered this issue in his foreknowledge.

[In order to maintain the connection with your avatar, you chose not to descend further and wait for your avatar to complete the day’s Blood Sacrifice.]

[Four hours later, you control your avatar in the Daxuan Royal Palace to proceed to the Great Temple, ready to perform the Blood Sacrifice Ritual.]

[Following the instructions of several ancestors, you smear blood on three incense sticks and light them in the incense burner.]

[As the three incense sticks burn, seven Paper Puppet Demons materialize in the Great Temple. Four of them are Early King Rank while three are Peak King-level. They ignore you and start to consume the smoke generated by the burning incense.]

[As the drifting smoke is consumed, you find that your spirit, energy, and mind strength are rapidly draining. Fortunately, your strength is vast, and by the time one and a half hours pass and the incense burns out, much of your strength still remains.]

“The Paper Puppet Demons are devouring my spirit, energy, and mind strength!”

Su Nan finally understands the risks of Blood Sacrifice.

“Fortunately, I have strong spirit, energy, and mind strength. Otherwise, once my strength is completely devoured, I fear I would be torn apart!”

With the conclusion of that day’s Blood Sacrifice, Su Nan is still not relieved.

The Blood Sacrifice Ritual will continue for seven days, thus he will need to return tomorrow night.

Moreover, merely judging from the situation at hand, although there are risks, they still fall short of the difficulty that a Four-star Task should possess.

Without a doubt, as the Blood Sacrifice continues, the risks will increase, becoming more dangerous with the passage of time. Today’s ritual was only the beginning, and therefore the safest day.

[With the conclusion of the Blood Sacrifice Ritual, you continued your descent down the staircase in the Ancient God Tomb, knowing all the while that as you proceed further, the timespan within the Illusion Realm will continue to increase, potentially sending you back to the Ancient Times.]

[To avoid this occurrence, you chose to prematurely forget everyone in your memories.]

[Unfortunately, forgetting your memories beforehand does not exempt you from the influence of the power of the Ancient Gods Tomb. As you reach the fifth step, you are again influenced by its power.]

[You find yourself in Nine Pavilion County a thousand years ago. There is no one you know from your memories here, but you still cannot leave the Illusion Realm.]

“Forgetting memories beforehand does not work?”

Su Nan was puzzled. If forgetting one’s memories was a valid method to leave the Illusion Realm, it should also allow one to avoid entering the realm in the first place.

After some thought, he came up with a possibility.

Perhaps every step in the Ancient God Tomb determines the exact point in time one could return to. For instance, the first step took him back one year, and the second, ten years.

No matter whether the people he knew or people he was aware of existed in those time periods, as long as he stood on that step, he would return to that point in time.

Even if an ordinary person came here, it would also be the same.

“Looks like this Illusion Realm isn’t just related to memories!”

However, this wasn’t the worst of it, the following foreknowledge causes his face to turn even more unpleasant.
