At the same time.
On a mountain 300 meters away from him.
A large number of ghosts had already surrounded Li Ye, but rather than feeling fear, he seemed relieved.
“This isn’t the ideal place, but we have no choice, it has to be here.”
Li Ye took out the Demonic Stone, then quickly laid down and closed his eyes.
The next moment, his breath disappeared instantly, even his breathing seemed to halt.
At the moment when his breath completely disappeared, the surrounding ghosts, who had lost sight of their target, began to wander aimlessly like headless flies.
Noticing the change in the ghosts around him, Li Ye breathed a sigh of relief, his nervousness disappeared, replaced by anticipation!
“I’m just one step away from success!”
All he had to do now was wait, wait for the Demonic Thought to be attracted by the aura emitted by the Demonic Stone.
At the foot of the mountain.
Su Nan had already changed back into Zhang Yang.
The outbreak of the ghosts naturally attracted the attention of Ji Changfeng and others.
Ji Changfeng led Song Zhi and two others to the bottom of the Back Mountain.
Cheng Dao quickly asked, “Brother Zhang Yang, what happened? Did those Outsiders climb the mountain?”
Su Nan nodded, “Most of those Outsiders were killed by the ghosts, but one of them has already gone up the mountain.”
“I’m afraid it won’t be long before the Curse of Demonic Thought is drawn out, and we’ll be able to leave.”
“Really? That’s great!”
The eyes of Song Zhi and the other two lit up, now they were hoping that Li Ye would succeed.
Ji Changfeng also nodded, “If this really happens, we really have to thank them!”
Su Nan just smiled, saying nothing, he couldn’t very well tell them that he was planning to steal the task.
Over ten minutes later.
Time arrived at midnight.
Game refresh.
All the consumed strength in Su Nan’s body instantly recovered, and the usage count of foreseeing the future and Across the Heavens Shift was also refreshed simultaneously.
He looked at his daily tasks first thing.
First was Zhang Yang’s task.
In addition to “Hunt a Spirit-level Monster” and “Escort Ji Changfeng, to Tianyun City”, a new task appeared in Zhang Yang’s daily tasks.
[Task Three: Escape from Tiger Roar Town]
Task Difficulty: Three Stars
Task Reward: 30 Demon Power Points.
“Three-star task, not bad, this task reward is practically free.”
A smile came to Su Nan’s face.
This task was similar to the second phase of the Curse of Demonic Thought. It was difficult for others, but not for him.
Running the Life Wheel Scripture, he glanced at Su Nan’s tasks.
In addition to hunting Mortal-level demons and Spirit-level monsters, a task related to Tiger Roar Town also appeared.
[Task Three: Clear the ghosts in Tiger Roar Town]
Task Difficulty: Four Stars
Task Reward: 45 Demon Power Points.
“This task… is tricky!”
Ghosts are not easy to clear, not to mention their sheer numbers, the mere fact of their immortality alone, is not something he can deal with.
What’s more, behind the ghosts is a Tiger Demon!
He shook his head in disappointment, he had no desire for this task at all.
Continuing to switch roles to Lang Thirteen.
[Task one: Hunt down five Outsiders]
[Task two: Hunt down 30 Outsiders]
[Task three: Hunt down one of the top 100 Qi Luck Outsiders]
Lang Thirteen’s daily tasks had no changes, still the same three different levels of hunting players tasks.
Glancing at it, Su Nan did not mind.
At this moment, several figures appeared consecutively not far away.
It was the players he had killed logging in!
The few of them saw Su Nan, exchanged glances but directly approached him. One of them laughed and said,
“Zhang Yang, you should have refreshed the task of escaping from Tiger Roar Town by now. Unfortunately, even if you want to agree to Brother Ye’s conditions for a method of escape now, it’s too late.”
Another nodded, “Brother Ye has successfully climbed the mountain. It won’t be long before the task is completed. It’s not a problem for you to know now, Brother Ye’s current Mainline Task is four-star!”
The others also chipped in, “A four-star Mainline Task! Once it’s completed, the demon power he’ll get is enough for Brother Ye to step into the Spirit Level. By that time, your third place might not be guaranteed.”
The group of them went back and forth, very smug, as if the one about to complete the task was not Li Ye, but them.
Song Zhi and the others were confused, having no idea what was going on.
However, they understood the last thing they heard.
Song Zhi immediately showed his concern: “Brother Zhang Yang, what did they mean by saying that your third position is not safe?”
Su Nan glanced at several players and said indifferently, “Don’t worry, if I don’t want to, no one can take my place.”
He ignored the few players, his eyes landing on the Personal Information Panel.
On it, the text of his foresight was rapidly changing.
[You use Across the Heavens Shift and arrive instantly four hundred meters away from Tiger Roar Town on a mountain, intending to find the Tiger Demon influenced by Demonic Thought.]
[There are many ghosts wandering on the mountain. They are looking for another Outsider. Your arrival instantly makes you the target of all the ghosts.] [Hundreds of ghosts surround you. You remain calm and unafraid. Electrical lights shoot out from your hand, and the ghosts in front of you are killed.]
[One minute later, you are surrounded by ghosts, only exploring a hundred meters in all directions on the mountain.]
[Two minutes later, you explore another hundred meters on the mountain. The number of ghosts around has not decreased with your attacks, but has instead increased.]
[Three minutes later, you have explored a three hundred meters radius area of the mountain, reaching a spot seven hundred meters away from Tiger Roar Town, but regretfully you still haven’t found the Tiger Demon.]
[End of first prediction, do you wish to continue?]
“Continue.”
[Three minutes later, you are located a thousand meters away from Tiger Roar
Town, and you have yet to find traces of the Tiger Demon.]
[End of second prediction, do you wish to continue?]
“Continue!”
[Three minutes later, you arrive at a place thirteen hundred meters away from Tiger Roar Town.]
[After continuous searching for nine minutes, you have killed a large number of ghosts. Your strength is seriously depleted. If you continue, you will not be able to hold on for much longer.]
[End of third prediction, do you wish to continue foretelling?]
“No!”
With his strength about to run out, it would be better to restart than to waste a chance at prediction.
Foot of the mountain.
Everyone except for Su Nan is staring at the endless mountain peak three thousand meters away, waiting for Li Ye to draw out the Demonic Thought.
The cooldown period for foresight is up.
Su Nan begins predicting again.
[You use Across the Heavens Shift twice in succession and arrive at a place thirteen hundred meters away from Tiger Roar Town, intending to find the Tiger Demon influenced by Demonic Thought.]
In the following time, Su Nan keeps foretelling.
He is not in a rush. His previous prediction told him that it would take Li Ye at least half an hour to draw out the Demonic Thought.
It has only been over ten minutes now, they have plenty of time.
Time passes.
Three minutes were gone in the blink of an eye.
Su Nan has predicted nine times in total!
In these predictions, he has reached a place three thousand and one hundred meters away from Tiger Roar Town, almost at the end of the mountain.
However, what makes him frown is that he still hasn’t found the Tiger Demon!
“What’s going on? Could it be that the Tiger Demon isn’t on the mountain?” Su Nan finds the current situation strange and completely unexpected.
He predicts once more, searching another three hundred meters.
This time, he finally finishes exploring the last part of the mountain behind Tiger Roar Town.
The result makes his face darken.
He still hasn’t found the Tiger Demon!
“That’s wrong. Since the location of the task is in the back mountain, the Tiger Demon must be in the back mountain, I just haven’t found it yet.”
“Perhaps I should switch my method, like Li Ye did!”
Su Nan pondered, and came up with a method.
When the cooldown period for foresight ended, he immediately started predicting again.
This time he planned to imitate Li Ye, and use Demonic Qi to attract the Demonic Thought inside the Tiger Demon.
As for the source of the Demonic Qi, he chose the Demonic Source Pearl.
This item seemed to be of no use to him for the time being, so it was perfect for an experiment.
[After using Across the Heavens Shift twice, you arrive in the central location fifteen hundred meters behind Tiger Roar Town. You take out the Demonic Source Pearl, planning to use the Demonic Qi exuded by the pearl to attract the Demonic Thought inside the Tiger Demon.]
[Your plan is very successful. Several breaths after the Demonic Source Pearl is taken out, you hear a loud, resonant tiger’s roar.]
[You follow the direction from where the sound is coming from. A minute later, you arrive at a basin located one thousand six hundred meters away from Tiger Roar Town.]
[To your surprise, a large cave has appeared in the originally empty basin.]
It’s found!
