The Ancient God's Tomb, as one of the four forbidden places in this world, is extremely dangerous.
The five major families and the Daxu Royal Family have explored the Ancient God's Tomb more than once, but each time has ended in heavy losses.
It can be said that every time they explore the Ancient God's Tomb, it is a disaster for the five major families!
Especially the Wu Family and the Zhang Family, in the last exploration, they lost two elders, and their strength plummeted, making them the weakest among the five major families, and they have not recovered to this day.
Under normal circumstances, they would not want to continue exploring the Ancient God's Tomb.
But having witnessed Su Nan's strength, even if they didn't want to agree in their hearts, they had to weigh the consequences of offending Su Nan.
The five family heads exchanged glances, and the head of the Wang Family spoke first, "Since Brother Chen has invited us, the Wang Family is naturally willing to accompany Brother Chen on this journey."
"My Zhang Family is also willing to accompany Brother Chen."
"My Wu Family is also willing..."
The heads of the five major families nodded in agreement.
They didn't know why Su Nan was so determined to explore the Ancient God's Tomb, but having seen Su Nan's strength, they were not particularly afraid.
"Good." Su Nan nodded in satisfaction.
This time, killing the Lord of Daxu Kingdom would bring him three days of misfortune, but the effect it had brought was quite satisfactory. The five major families, pressured by his strength, were very cooperative with his invitation.
"In that case, let's schedule the exploration of the Ancient God's Tomb for three days from now," Su Nan said.
The five major families naturally had no objections.
Afterward, they discussed the details a bit more, and the family heads left the Wang Family.
[Congratulations, you have completed the daily task "Collaborate with the Five Great Families," and 45 points of demon power have been granted.]
[Current available demon power: 251 points]
Today, the three characters could complete the tasks, and a total of 135 demon power points were added, finally giving him enough demon power to improve his bloodline.
The news of the Lord of Daxu Kingdom being killed spread like a tsunami across the Lost Land, causing a huge sensation.
"It's true, the Daxu Royal Family really has a king-level puppet, and it's not just one!"
"Having a king-level puppet doesn't matter, they were all killed by someone. I heard that Chen Dao Hai possesses a terrifying flame that instantly killed the Lord of Daxu Kingdom's king-level puppet. It's too terrifying!"
"Furthermore, it's said that among the puppets controlled by the Lord of Daxu Kingdom, there are suspected to be three king-level peak existences!"
"King-level peak, what kind of existence is that? Under the protection of such existences, the Lord of Daxu Kingdom was still killed by Chen Dao Hai. What opportunity did Chen Dao Hai obtain?"
"I think Chen Dao Hai is not the real Chen Dao Hai, but someone else disguised as him!"
"Whether it's true or not, what's the point? He claims to be Chen Dao Hai, can you expose him? I'm afraid even the Five Great Families don't have the guts!"
As the rulers of this world, the death of the Lord of Daxu Kingdom was a major event for everyone.
From the major families to the common people, everyone was discussing it.
And if anyone was most shocked by this news, it was undoubtedly the Li Family among the Ten Great Families!
"We're done! Chen Dao Hai actually has the strength to kill a king-level puppet. We've offended Chen Dao Hai, and he won't spare us for sure!"
The Li Family, several clan elders, had a serious expression on their faces, thinking back to yesterday's events, they all regretted it.
Among them, the middle-aged and the old man with the surname Mo and the surname Zhang were even more secretly relieved.
According to the plan, they were originally going to capture Chen Dao Hai, but if it weren't for the Lord of Daxu Kingdom's incident, the next one to die might be them.
The most infuriated by this matter, of course, was the Daxu Royal Family.
In a secret chamber underground in the Daxu Royal Palace, several middle-aged and old men gathered, and their roars echoed in the secret chamber.
"Damn it! Regardless of who they are, if they dare to kill my Lord of Daxu Kingdom, they must be torn to pieces, or else how can my Daxu Kingdom survive in this world? Where is our face?"
An old man with gray clothes and a youthful face roared, and the other men had ugly expressions as well.
"What should we do? If Chen Dao Hai can kill the Lord of Daxu Kingdom under the siege of three king-level peak Paper Puppet Beasts, he must also have the ability to kill us. If he comes to the royal palace, we..."
After the gray-clothed old man stopped roaring, a middle-aged man looked at the old man, somewhat anxious.
In his words, the big brother, of course, referred to the Lord of Daxu Kingdom.
The gray-clothed old man snorted, saying, "If he dares to come to the royal palace, it's even better. As long as he dares to come, even if he's a king-level, he must stay here!"
Even a king-level must stay?
Several middle-aged men were startled, and they looked at each other, full of curiosity.
One of the middle-aged men asked tentatively, "Elder, what do you mean by that? What are our cards?"
On the side, another old man in a white robe said in a deep voice, "You shouldn't inquire about things you shouldn't know."
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man shrank his neck, knowing that he had asked something he shouldn't have. He immediately shut his mouth.
What relieved him was that the white-robed old man did not blame him, but instead paused and said, "I can only tell you that it's the legacy left to us by our ancestor of Daxu Kingdom!"
"Left by the ancestor?"
The several middle-aged men were shocked again, and at the same time, they all heaved a sigh of relief.
With something left by their ancestor, they had nothing to fear!
The gray-clothed old man said, "Strange, Chen Dao Hai didn't come to the palace. Could it be that he knows something?"
The other black-clothed old man who hadn't spoken nodded and said, "It's not impossible. Chen Dao Hai clearly came prepared. Judging from the way he acted, he obviously knew what was on the Lord's body and had prepared countermeasures long ago."
The black-clothed old man referred to the Lord of Daxu Kingdom as "Lord."
"If that's the case, it's strange. How did he know? "The several old men exchanged glances, all with serious expressions.
The fact that the enemy knew everything about them while they knew nothing about the enemy was unfavorable for them.
"Moreover, the woman who came with him is at least in the mid-king level, and she is definitely not from our world!"
One
of the middle-aged men asked cautiously, "Elder, are you saying that the woman is from the outside world?"
The black-clothed old man nodded, "Not only that, Chen Dao Hai is likely a fake as well, also from the outside world!"
"According to the information we received, Chen Dao Hai's daughter was chased by the Ma Family and driven to the Death Desert, but she didn't die. Instead, all the people from the Ma Family died. After that, Chen Dao Hai appeared. Isn't that too coincidental?"
Hearing this, everyone in the room couldn't help but think of the news they had received a few hours ago about the appearance of outsiders, and they all had shocked expressions.
"How did they get in? The power of the Death Desert has not disappeared. Could it be that they have found another way to enter this place from the outside world?"
The gray-clothed old man said, "It doesn't matter whether they are outsiders or not. The most urgent thing is to select a new Lord."
...
Browsing the items in the points mall, Su Nan's eyes showed a happy expression.
It was at the moment when he killed the Lord of Daxu Kingdom, and today's Twelve Star Palaces ended, and the rewards were distributed.
Similar to yesterday, Zhang Yang and Lang Thirteen both received over 20,000 points, and their total points reached over 50,000. Wang Nan also received over 18,000 points, and his total points reached over 44,000.
With 50,000 points, he could open the fourth-level mall.
The mall appeared before him, just as he had expected.
In the fourth-level mall, there were indeed ancient scriptures and techniques, but compared to the contribution mall from the last time, there were many more items in this mall, but the quality was hard to determine.
[Divine Skill Fragments: Remaining exchangeable quantity 30. Exchange price: 20,000 points.]
[Ordinary Ancient Demon Blood: Remaining exchangeable quantity 100. Exchange price: 35,000 points.]
[Spirit-level Ancient Demon Blood: Remaining exchangeable quantity 50, exchange price: 70,000 points.]
"Divine Skill Fragments cost 20,000 points?"
"Spirit-level Ancient Demon Blood actually costs 75,000 points!"
Su Nan was surprised.
However, when he considered the difficulty of earning points this time, he became more understanding.
On the leaderboard, the top ten players had already surpassed ten thousand points, and this was only the third day of the event.
At this rate, by the end of the event, the top ten players would easily surpass a hundred thousand points.
Moreover, as long as they hunted the Constellation Guardians, they would receive fixed additional rewards for each battle won. It was just the beginning now, and there would undoubtedly be more points later.
It should be noted that the players' opponents this time were also players, which meant that there would be no situation like last time, where ordinary players struggled to earn points in the later stages of the event.
Earning points was easy, so the items were naturally expensive.
The first few items didn't catch Su Nan's eye, but he focused on the items further down.
[Art Magic Seed: A seed refined from the essence of the sun and moon by ancient experts. After use, you will randomly obtain one type of magic art (ineffective for those who already possess one). Exchangeable quantity: 10, Exchange price: 8,500 points.]
[Divine Martial Sect Basic Scripture: In ancient times, there were ten great sects, one of which was the Divine Martial Sect. The Divine Martial Sect has three basic scriptures: Tiger Roar Vajra Scripture, Giant Whale Strength Divine Scripture, and Boundless Sky Scripture. After exchange, you can choose one of the three ancient scriptures. Exchangeable quantity: 3, Exchange price: 99,999 points.]
[Return to Origin Sect Basic Scripture: In ancient times, there were ten great sects, one of which was the Return to Origin Sect. The Return to Origin Sect has three basic scriptures: Circulating Qi of the Heavens, Profound Unity of the Void, and Three Yang Refining Divine Scripture. After exchange, you can choose one of the three ancient scriptures. Exchangeable quantity: 3, Exchange price: 99,999 points.]
...
[Fenglei Sect Basic Scripture: In ancient times, there were ten great sects, one of which was the Fenglei Sect. The Fenglei Sect has three basic scriptures: Nine Heavens Thunder Control Scripture, Divine Fire Annihilation Scripture, and Water's Nurturing All Living Things Scripture. After exchange, you can choose one of the three ancient scriptures. Exchangeable quantity: 3, Exchange price: 99,999 points.]
Apart from Divine Skills, there were also Art Magic Seeds and ancient scriptures.
There were plenty of Art Magic Seeds, with the option to exchange for ten, and even more ancient scriptures, including all ten great sects!
Each sect had three basic ancient scriptures, making a total of 30!
Moreover, the prices weren't very high, making it possible for some expert players to exchange for them before the event ended.
However, as Su Nan looked at these items, he furrowed his brows.
There was no need to discuss the Art Magic Seeds, as they could only be used by those who had never possessed a magic art, which clearly didn't apply to him.
While there were many ancient scriptures, all of them were basic ancient scriptures.
"Basic ancient scriptures, what use do they have?"
Su Nan shook his head, showing no interest in exchanging for these ancient scriptures.
It wasn't just because he didn't have enough points; the most important reason was that he didn't find these ancient scriptures appealing.
The Mandala Scripture he cultivated was unique and forbidden, and the Great Sun Golden Body Scripture was the fundamental scripture of the Great Sun Sect.
The gap between fundamental scriptures and basic ancient scriptures was self-evident.
Furthermore, the cultivation of ancient scriptures also required demonic energy. Currently, he was already struggling to maintain his daily cultivation of the Great Sun Golden Body Scripture, which consumed 50 points of demonic energy. If he continued to cultivate other ancient scriptures, he would have no opportunity to improve his bloodline.
Of course, if he encountered powerful ancient scriptures like the Great Sun Golden Body Scripture, he might consider exchanging for them.
"These Art Magic and ancient scripture prices aren't outrageous. These items seem more suitable for ordinary expert players."
Looking at the items, Su Nan thought of a possibility.
There were a large number of Art Magic Seeds and ancient scriptures available this time, and their prices weren't too high, making them easily accessible to high-level players.
"I can only hope that the fifth-level mall has what I need."
Sighing, Su Nan felt somewhat disappointed and could only pin his hopes on the fifth-level mall.
To open the fifth-level mall, he needed a hundred thousand points, which wasn't too much for him. However, he would have to wait for two or three more days to reach that amount.
Closing the mall, Su Nan looked at the rising sun and left the city, finding a secluded place to start cultivating.
He had only four more uses of foresight left, which was insufficient for his needs, so he decided to stop using it for now.
He practiced the Great Sun Golden Body Scripture several times, and now he was already familiar with it. With the help of the Fire Spirit Essence, even without foresight, he had no worries about his cultivation.
Moreover, in his previous foresight, he hadn't encountered any problems within the three days.
As he began his cultivation, the roaring flames of the Great Sun engulfed him.
The moon rose, and the sun set.
In the blink of an eye, another in-game day passed.
Su Nan opened his eyes and looked at the panel.
With a consumption of 50 points of demonic energy, the progress of the Great Sun Golden Body Scripture had increased by another 10%, plus the 3% increase from cultivation, bringing it to exactly 40%.
He still had 201 points of demonic energy left.
The daily tasks had refreshed, and Su Nan immediately checked them.
What pleased him was that his plan from yesterday had clearly worked. The tasks that were impossible to complete in such a short time had disappeared, replaced by tasks to evade the capture of various major families.
[Daily Task 1: Evade Qian Family's Pursuit]
Task Difficulty: One Star
[Daily Task 2: Evade Zhou Family's Pursuit]
Task Difficulty: One Star
[Daily Task 3: Evade Cui Family's Pursuit]
Task Difficulty: Two Stars
Zhang Yang's tasks appeared on the screen, with two one-star tasks and one two-star task.
Although the levels weren't high, they added up to 60 points of demonic energy.
The same went for Lang Thirteen's tasks, but Wang Nan's task was an exception.
[Daily Task 3: Explore the Great Xuan Royal Palace]
Task Difficulty: Four Stars
"Explore the Great Xuan Royal Palace?"
Su Nan had witnessed the danger of the Great Xuan Royal Palace. If an ordinary person were to enter, they wouldn't even know how they died. Even he wouldn't be an exception.
However, thinking back to his earlier idea, he became excited.
"I wonder if I can enter the Great Xuan Royal Palace as a member of one of the royal families of the Great Xuan Kingdom and deceive the Divine Spirit Beast guarding it?"
His gaze fell on the foresight option on the panel, and Su
Nan's heart stirred.
