Tristan quietly made his way to the Holy Lord's Palace. The palace was a special region in the Cursed Blood Dimension that was surrounded by a shield and no one could enter. The Holy Lord was said to be constantly meditating about the meaning of the universe.
When Tristan appeared at the door of the palace, the barrier opened for him and he was pulled into the palace by a wind. Then the palace shut down again.
Tristan arrived in front of the throne. On it was a frail man who was almost bones was looking at him weakly. Suddenly a black whirlpool sprang from his forehead and swallowed his entire body, destroying it, but at the same time a new body leapt out of the skin.
This body was healthy and powerful. However, it soon began withering away again at a speed observable to the naked eye.
"Blasted Curse." The Holy Lord said.
Tristan was shocked. "Holy Lord?" He asked with worry. Obviously he was feigning the worry and actually joyous inside.
"So this entire cursed blood sect is just a facade for him to get rid of this curse..no wonder." Tristan sneered inwardly.
"Don't mind me. I have called you here, because you have displayed the dedication and talent I require. Today I will give you a reward, as well as impart the final part of the Cursed Blood Sect.
Take this. This is the purest grade Blood crystal. You must be wondering what beast this blood is from?" The Holy Lord sighed. "I once collected 10 drops of the essence blood of a legendary creature called the Kraken with much difficulty. All the blood crystals till now, the millions of them were made from two drops of blood.
Now I am giving you this purest grade Blood Crystal which was made from an entire drop of the blood. Here is the fourth and final part of the Cursed Blood Text. You will absorb this Blood Crystal."
Tristan nodded and set out to study the fourth and final part of the text. He finally sneered in his heart. The aim of this parr is to absorb the curse immunity from the crystal and then transfer it to the Holy Lord and the backlash of the curse would fall on Tristan instead.
The only hitch was that Tristan had never used this botched cultivation techniques to absorb the Kraken's Blood Crystals anyway.
Tristan nodded and began absorbing the final Kraken's Blood Crystal.
[Perfect Quality Kraken Blood Crystal]
[Absorb? Y/N]
Willing it to absorb, once again, the crystal was absorbed rapidly, however it was still a long time by Tristan's standards. It took entirely five minutes to completely absorb the crystal and his curse resistance finally upgraded.
[Curse Resistance 100% changed to Curse Immunity]
His trait actually changed to Curse Immunity.
The Holy Lord became excited. "Now it is time to serve me! Follow the cultivation art and sacrifice the blood to me to gain power!"
Tristan faked an excited look and went through the motions of the art, but due to his vow he couldn't complete it anyway. At the same time, the Holy Lord also performed the identical move and felt the curse rise from his body.
The Whirlpool left his forehead and flew towards Tristan with the intentions of the Holy Lord. In excitement The Holy Lord yelled. "Finally! Finally this Pirate King will be free. Calico Jack returns once more! That Kraken will soon know of my wrath!"
However, Tristan was observing his system.
[You have been Cursed]
[Curse Immunity repelled Curse.]
....
The same two dialogues kept repeating over a hundred times.
Calico Jack's face also suddenly changed. "How is this possible? Curse Rebound? No, a second Curse rebound will kill me! Who are you? WHO ARE YOU? NO... NOOO!"
The whirlpool which was rushing towards Tristan bounced off him and blasted towards Calico Jack and stuck to his forehead again. However, this time his body began disintegrating very quickly.
Then the next avatar of the pirate came out, but it already had a whirlpool on its head which swallowed it. Then the next avatar popped out again, but it was a teenage boy. He yelled. "Kraken! You are the Kraken! You even came here to trick me!"
But he was swallowed up again and a new avatar popped out, it was a child which was quickly swallowed up as well. Then a baby popped out. Finally the baby was swallowed by the unstoppable whirlpool again and there was a tiny implosion and the palace vibrated a bit.
Pirate King Calico Jack, aka Holy Lord of the Blood Curse Sect was no more. Killed by his own desperation to escape a curse, he created a curse sect.
Tristan was incredibly lucky in being able to fool such a powerhouse. With this the Cursed Blood Sect would be destroyed from the inside, because everyone gained their power from Calico Jack, thus once he died, their powers would have also evaporated away.
Luckily Tristan was shielded in the palace. He could calmly collect the haul of the pirate and look for a way out.
The first thing he collected were the 7 remaining drops of Kraken Blood. He also collected the space ring which the pirate dropped when he died.
Looking into the space ring Tristan was shocked. There were tons of items in the space ring. Gold, there was a whole lot of Gold as well as silver. A mountain of Pirate World currency, golden guineas.
There were also a map indicating buried treasures within the Pirate World. Books on Curses and Curse arts. And a scroll containing a specific curse, that probably inflicted Calico Jack.
There were several specific treasures, which Tristan decided to look at later. Now he looked for a way to escape. Then behind the throne was a portal. Tristan stepped into the portal and ended up on an island in the Pirate World.
