Today, there are still many predictions available, and the game is about to refresh, so it would be a waste to save them.
Su Nan began his prediction five minutes ahead, intending to use the Celestial Teleportation to leave the current desert. He wanted to leave enough time to predict what would happen next.
Prediction begins.
The first prediction was uneventful, mainly spent waiting.
Three minutes passed quickly in the prediction, and Su Nan began the second prediction.
"In the current desert, you can easily lose your way, and walking here will only lead you in circles. Your hope for breaking free relies on the Celestial Teleportation."
"You should know that two minutes from now, a strange power will descend from the sky. That will be your chance to use the Celestial Teleportation. Be patient."
"One minute later, everything will be calm, and there will be no anomalies in the desert."
"Two minutes later, your waiting time is finally over. Without hesitation, you immediately use the Celestial Teleportation."
"The next moment, you vanish from your current location. When you reappear, you are already two kilometers to the east of your original position. Without stopping, you use the Celestial Teleportation twice more."
"Your three opportunities to use the Celestial Teleportation are exhausted, and you cannot use it again."
"However, just as you expected, at that moment, a strange power descends, restoring your Celestial Teleportation ability, allowing you to use it again."
"You act decisively and use the Celestial Teleportation for the fourth time. This time, you arrive next to a giant rock, the first one you've encountered in this desert."
"You don't stop there. You use the Celestial Teleportation for the fifth time, and to your surprise, you find yourself in a thicket. Looking ahead, you see not endless sand, but a gradually thickening forest."
"Turning around, you see an endless yellow desert behind you."
"Congratulations, you've successfully left the desert."
"Five times to escape!" Su Nan exclaimed with joy. He had been worried about what would happen if he ran out of opportunities to use the Celestial Teleportation, but thankfully, it didn't come to that.
The prediction continued, but the next piece of information made Su Nan's face turn grim, erasing his joy at leaving the desert.
"You may have missed an opportunity on this final journey."
"Missed an opportunity?" Su Nan thought. "As expected! Being the first to leave the desert is not the only condition to obtain the inheritance. There must be something else I haven't discovered."
Su Nan had suspected this possibility earlier, and now it was confirmed.
"What else might be hidden in this desert?" he wondered. He was sure that Qian Yu knew, but getting information from him would be nearly impossible. When it came to the inheritance, Qian Yu wouldn't reveal any crucial details, even if he didn't log into the game.
"There's no other choice. To find what might be hidden in the desert, I'll have to try predicting several times and hope to trigger some luck."
Su Nan had no other option but to rely on luck.
Once the one-minute prediction cooldown was over, Su Nan initiated another prediction.
Previously, he had used Celestial Teleportation to escape to the east, so this time he chose to go west to see if he could leave the desert from a different direction.
After using Celestial Teleportation five times in a row, he successfully left the desert and found himself in the thicket again.
"Leaving in the opposite direction is possible too," Su Nan nodded, realizing that no matter which way he went, he could leave the desert and enter the pine forest.
For the third prediction, Su Nan chose to go south.
After using Celestial Teleportation five times again, he left the desert once more.
For the fourth prediction, Su Nan selected the north.
He continued with several predictions, each time waiting for a one-minute cooldown. It was now 11:58 PM, and he had two more chances left. If he didn't find anything on these last two attempts, he would leave the desert first and wait for the game to refresh the next day.
Fortunately, his luck of 400 points did not disappoint him this time. He made a significant discovery.
"On the third use of Celestial Teleportation, your luck comes into play, and you suddenly find yourself in a jungle. This is an oasis in the desert!"
"You've used up your three opportunities for Divine Teleportation, but as expected, a strange power descends, restoring your Divine Teleportation ability, allowing you to use it again."
"Your immediate decision is to use the Celestial Teleportation for the fourth time. This time, you arrive next to a giant pit, and at the bottom of the pit, you see a red-leaved tree that stands out from the other trees."
"The red-leaved tree isn't tall, only about the height of a person, but it is exceptionally robust and twisted, making it stand out among the surrounding vegetation."
"However, what truly catches your eye is a fist-sized golden fruit on that small tree."
"The first prediction ends. Do you want to continue?"
"A golden fruit? Could it be a spiritual fruit?" Su Nan thought instantly of the bloodline spiritual fruit he had obtained before. The golden fruit looked different, but if it was indeed a spiritual fruit, it would undoubtedly bring him some benefits.
"Continue!"
"You are drawn to the golden fruit, believing it might be a spiritual fruit. You cautiously enter the large pit, fully aware of the potential danger, and approach the red-leaved tree."
"One minute later, you finally arrive near the red-leaved tree, and to your surprise, everything around you remains calm, with no unexpected events."
"However, you remain cautious, extending your hand toward the golden fruit while preparing for any sudden action. But just as you are about to touch the fruit, a sudden change occurs."
"The red tree suddenly comes to life, with a thick red branch, as thick as an adult's arm, striking towards you with a tearing sound."
"You react quickly, swiftly stepping back to evade the branch's strike. The tree's attack misses, but it leaves a one-meter-wide trench in the ground."
"The next moment, you see the red tree's roots emerging from the soil. The thick, red roots look like long legs, propelling the small tree rapidly towards you."
"This is a peak-level spirit beast, but its true strength is comparable to a mid-level Profound Rank monster."
"Just a peak-level spirit beast?" Su Nan wasn't surprised by the sudden transformation of the small tree. He had heard that in this world, flowers, plants, and trees could transform into monsters, but he had never encountered one until now.
What truly surprised him was the creature's level. This place was the trial ground of an ancient powerhouse, and this had to be part of the trial. To obtain the spiritual fruit, he had to defeat the tree spirit.
Chapter 186: Dragon Blood Fruit
However, it seems that it's just too simple like this.
Although the Tree Demon possesses strength comparable to the early Profound Rank, it cannot change the fact that it is only at the peak of the Spirit Rank.
In other places, having such a formidable monster as part of the test would be more than enough.
But here, the inheritance comes from an ancient powerhouse!
It's like having hundreds of millions of dollars at home, but only using a stray dog to guard it.
"Monster is approaching you, and you prepare to counterattack."
"However, just as you are about to strike, you suddenly realize that here, you cannot use your Bloodline powers of the Elemental and Secret Bloodline Systems. The only power you can use is the Bloodline power of the Physical System."
"Can only use the Bloodline power of the Physical System?"
"So that's it. I thought the test couldn't be this simple."
Su Nan suddenly understood.
But he was not afraid. His Physical System Bloodline was his most potent power, and now, with all four Spirit-level Bloodlines fully mastered and the acquisition of new racial talents, he was even more formidable.
Even though the monster's strength was on par with the early Profound Rank, Su Nan was stronger.
"The monster is powerful, but luckily, your strength is not weak. You don't hold back and engage the monster with your racial talent 'One Force Breaks Heaven.'"
"With the boost from your racial talent 'One Force Breaks Heaven,' your strength surges, reaching the level of the mid Profound Rank. The Tree Demon is no match for you, and three minutes later, it finally falls."
"Congratulations, you've successfully killed the Tree Demon and obtained a Spirit Fruit."
"The second prediction ends. Do you want to continue?"
"Continue!"
Su Nan's heart stirred. While choosing to continue, he also didn't wait and immediately used Celestial Teleportation to move to the north.
Now, there was only one minute left until the game refreshed.
He was heading to the oasis at the fastest speed possible to deal with the monster, and he could catch the game refresh. This way, he wouldn't suffer any loss of strength.
Using Celestial Teleportation, he disappeared from his current location.
"Huh? Wang Nan logged out of the game?"
Seeing Su Nan suddenly disappear, the players from the Nine Heavens Guild nearby were all stunned, but then they were overjoyed.
"That's great! Quickly, inform the boss that that guy has finally logged out of the game."
A player who logged out immediately contacted Qian Yu in real life.
"Oh? That guy finally couldn't hold on anymore?" Upon receiving the message, Qian Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
He was worried that Su Nan would continue to drag things out with him, which would have a significant impact on him. Now that Su Nan had logged out, it undoubtedly gave him an opportunity.
"Quick, tell everyone to log into the game." Qian Yu gave orders promptly.
Logging into the game, Qian Yu appeared in the desert again. He glanced around and, not seeing Su Nan, breathed another sigh of relief.
After a few breaths, when all the players who had logged out of the game had logged back in, Qian Yu immediately changed direction with them, rushing forward at the fastest speed possible, fearing that Su Nan would log in at this moment.
Little did he know that Su Nan had already arrived at the oasis and was heading straight for the pit.
During this process, he had already used his racial talent, One Force Breaks Heaven.
Although he had used One Force Breaks Heaven in the prediction, he hadn't unleashed the full power of the technique, and he had only fought the monster for a little over a minute.
Now, he would not waste any time.
When he arrived in front of the Tree Demon, instead of reaching for the golden fruit, he suddenly unleashed all his power, striking the Tree Demon with a punch.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the power that could easily kill a mid Profound Rank monster burst forth, shattering the thick tree trunk and piercing through it.
A monster with the strength comparable to the early Profound Rank was killed just like that.
He didn't even have a chance to retaliate.
Su Nan reacted swiftly. Almost at the moment when the Tree Demon was killed, he reached out and plucked the golden fruit.
Just as the golden fruit was picked, the Tree Demon's body rapidly shriveled and turned into ashes.
"It's over just like that? What a pity."
Su Nan shook his head. A tree that bore a spiritual fruit and could transform into a monster was definitely extraordinary. It would have been useful to keep it for later use, but now it was gone, which was a pity.
Looking at the spiritual fruit in his hand, his eyes lit up.
"Dragon Blood Fruit: A tree that has been nourished by dragon blood and has taken root beside a dragon corpse. After absorbing the essence of the dragon corpse for thousands of years, this ordinary tree has transformed into a spiritual tree. After countless days and nights of condensation, it has borne a fruit infused with dragon blood."
"This spiritual fruit contains a trace of dragon energy and has the ability to replenish innate energy. After consumption, your physical body will undergo a baptism of dragon blood, significantly enhancing your strength, speed, and physique, and you may even acquire dragon energy."
"Absorbed dragon corpse essence to produce this spiritual fruit?"
"What a precious item!"
Su Nan was excited. Just this one spiritual fruit made his journey worthwhile.
He didn't immediately consume the fruit because time didn't allow it.
"You didn't immediately consume the spiritual fruit, but you have already spent three minutes in the oasis. Staying in one place for too long in the desert can also lead to getting lost."
"Fearing that you might get lost again, you immediately use Celestial Teleportation to try to leave the desert."
"Unfortunately, you disappointed yourself. Even after using Celestial Teleportation twice in a row, you still couldn't leave. You're lost again."
"A slight deviation leads to a great error. The direction you teleported in has deviated, and you'll find it very difficult to leave the desert."
"Not willing to give up, you use Celestial Teleportation once more, but you still can't leave the desert."
"Lost in just three minutes!" Su Nan's heart sank as he once again experienced the strangeness of this desert.
Fortunately, he had acted quickly just now and had killed the Tree Demon within the blink of an eye, not wasting much time.
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly felt a strange power descending, rapidly restoring the energy he had consumed using One Force Breaks Heaven.
Midnight had arrived, and the mission refreshed.
Without hesitation, Su Nan was about to use Celestial Teleportation again.
Suddenly, he saw the daily tasks that had refreshed, and he couldn't help but feel delighted.
