Chapter 234: Chapter 153: Three Different Roads – Part 2
Translator: 549690339
[Without hesitation, you choose the middle path that is neither too wide nor too narrow. Although it twists and turns, it always extends forward.]
[A minute later, you bypass three bone peaks without encountering any danger.]
[Two minutes later, you bypass another three bone peaks, and the surrounding Bone Sea is calm.]
[Three minutes later, you have walked a full six or seven miles, and the winding path ahead still shows no sign of change.]
[However, you have noticed that the farther you go, the thicker the evil energy in the space becomes, causing increasing discomfort.]
[End of first prediction, do you want to continue?]
“Continue”
[The Black Path under your feet seems to have no end, leading to an unknown destination. All you can do is move forward as fast as possible.]
[The surrounding Bone Sea is filled with a heavy deadness, seemingly without any danger, but giving you an eerie feeling.]
[A minute later, you’ve walked another two miles. Reaching this point, the evil energy in the space becomes denser.]
[You can feel the presence of another familiar energy mixed in with the evil energy – it’s Demonic Qi! ]
[Two minutes later, your steps begin to slow, and your expression becomes solemn.]
[You notice that at some point, your bloodline has been eroded by the Demonic Qi, making it uncontrollable and agitated.]
[Three minutes later, you have walked more than ten miles from the fork in the road. At this point, your bloodline has become uncontrollable and is raging.]
[You have a premonition that the end of this path leads to a place filled with Demonic Qi. Continuing on this path, your ultimate fate will surely be losing control.]
[End of second prediction, do you want to continue?]
“Demonic Qi?” Su Nan’s expression becomes slightly serious.
He finally understands why the path is unimpeded, and he has not encountered any danger.
Even for demons, there is an instinctual disgust and resistance to Demonic Qi. The farther this path leads, the stronger the Demonic Qi becomes, so naturally, there will be no creatures in such a place.
It’s possible that under the Bone Sea in the prediction, there aren’t even any creatures!
“Continue!”
Even knowing that he will die, Su Nan still chooses to continue the prediction.
He wants to see what lies at the end of this path.
[The Demonic Qi in the space is getting thicker and thicker. With every step forward, you bear the risk of your bloodline clashing and losing control.]
[You don’t back down and continue to push forward.]
[A minute later, due to the corrosion of the Demonic Qi, the Double-Winged Snake Bloodline and Triple Sun Crow Bloodline inside your body begin to violently clash.]
[Two minutes later, you lose control completely.]
[In the moment before completely losing control, you discover that the Demonic Qi in the surrounding space is attracted and begins to roll towards you.]
The prediction ends with losing control, and he ultimately fails to see what lies at the end of the path.
“Is it just the conflict between the Double-Winged Snake Bloodline and Triple Sun Crow Bloodline? The other four bloodlines were not affected by the Demonic Qi!”
The loss of control is expected, but the conflicting bloodlines surprise Su Nan.
It’s clear that this is the effect of the Life Wheel Scripture.
Under the effect of the Life Wheel Scripture, even the Demonic Qi can only affect the bloodline of his current role, unable to affect the bloodlines of his other two roles.
“But what can be done? If one role loses control, my consciousness will be controlled by the evil energy. It doesn’t matter if the other two roles are unaffected.” Su Nan shakes his head,
The three roles can be seen as three separate bodies, but their consciousness is shared, and he only has one consciousness.
If one day he could divide his consciousness into three, then the loss of control of one role might not have a fatal impact on him.
“Now there is only the third path left. I wonder where Hu Xiaotian is?”
“I hope he’s not dead yet!”
Witnessing the horror of the Bone Cave, Su Nan begins to worry about Hu Xiaotian.
Although Hu Xiaotian is formidable and on par with the Emperor-level, the danger of staying in this strange place for three days remains high.
Prediction cooldown ends, predict again.
[Walking along the path, a minute later, you bypass several bone peaks and arrive at a fork in the road.]
[Without hesitation, you choose the narrowest path to the right.]
[This path is only wide enough for one person to walk on. You quickly move forward along it.]
[However, as soon as you walk a hundred meters, the Bone Sea around you starts to churn. A bone demon resembling a cheetah appears, jumping and lunging at you.]
[This is just a Spirit-level Bone Demon, but you know that fighting it will attract more creatures.]
[You chose to dodge, but this time your dodge was ineffective.]
[The bone sea churns, and one by one, bone demons appear continuously. In the blink of an eye, over a dozen demons of various sizes and bizarre appearances surround you.]
[These demons are particularly hostile to your arrival, launching attacks at you in unison. Helplessly, you have no choice but to fight back.]
[Your strength is formidable, and facing these spirit-level bone demons, you shatter one with each punch.]
[As you strike, the thing you worried about happens – three even stronger bone demons crawl out of the bone sea.]
[They are mid-Xuan level creatures, and after a brief battle, you find yourself outmatched.]
[You died!]
“What happened? How come I was attacked by the demons on the path this time?”
Su Nan wonders.
Previously, even when he left the path, he would only be pulled into the bone sea by bone hands but not directly attacked. This time was unusual.
There was obviously a problem.
He carefully studied the information from his foreknowledge.
Suddenly, a piece of information caught his attention.
“Why are these demons particularly hostile to my arrival?”
“Could it be… because I’m using a human identity?” Su Nan thought of a possibility.
There had once been a great battle between humans and the demon clan here, so naturally, the dead demons would be hostile to humans.
With that in mind,
He immediately tried to operate the Life Wheel Scripture, switching his role to Lang Thirteen, while also using Boneshifting to change his appearance.
After doing all this and waiting for the cooldown of his foreknowledge to end, he predicts again.
[Following the path ahead, a minute later, you bypass several bone peaks and arrive at a fork in the road.]
[Without hesitation, this time you choose the narrowest path on the right.]
[A minute later, you bypass two more bone peaks and continue advancing swiftly.]
[After two minutes, you keep moving without stopping, still following the path relentlessly.]
[Three minutes later, you halt in your tracks. A huge skeleton lies across the path in front of you, blocking your way.]
[The skeleton is unusual, not white but gray-black, clearly different from the surrounding bones in the bone sea.]
[Your intuition tells you there might be danger ahead, so you don’t dare to explore recklessly and decisively use Across the Heavens Shift.]
[End of the first prediction, do you want to continue?]
“I wasn’t attacked again!”
Su Nan’s eyes brighten; this undoubtedly proves that his guess is right.
He then realizes something and his eyes light up with understanding.
“I get it now. The three paths here correspond to humans, demons, and monsters.”
“The first path leads to a city, which only humans would build, and the second path is filled with demonic qi, naturally related to demons.”
“On the first two paths, using a human identity may not be exactly advantageous, but at least I won’t be targeted.”
“Only this third path belongs to the demon clan, and if I walk through it as a human, I would naturally be attacked.”
If his guess is true, then he can imagine that the end of this path must be connected to the demon clan.
“Continue.”
[The winding path appears safe, but in reality, danger is lurking everywhere. Your caution helps you avoid a brush with death.]
[After successfully crossing the gigantic skeleton blocking the path, you continue your journey. However, not long after, an anomaly occurs.]
[The once placid bone sea now seems to churn like waves, ripples forming in the distance, spreading rapidly.]
[In an instant, the waves have reached your side, and along with the churning bone sea, countless bone demons emerge from beneath it.]
[These bone demons are not coming for you, but instead, they sprint swiftly in the direction the path extends.]
[An innumerable number of bone demons appear, creating a spectacular sight like a tidal wave, rushing towards the end of the path at breakneck speed.]
[You realize that something abnormal must have occurred up ahead.]
“An anomaly? What’s going on up there?” Su Nan’s interest is piqued.
After predicting for such a long time, he’s finally encountered something different..
