Chapter 156: Chapter 116: The Trial Ends_2

He couldn't understand where the problem lay!

In the game.

Su Nan ignored the game ranking and took out the piece of paper containing information related to the Li Fire Essence.

The writing on the paper was beautiful, and it looked like the ink had not even fully dried yet, showing it was recently copied.

“The ancient times had four great Sacred Fires, one of which is the Southern Ming Detachment Fire. This Sacred Fire was once controlled by the Divine Venerable One of Southern Ming and served as one of his most potent tools. After a great battle where the Divine Venerable One of Southern Ming fell, the Southern Ming Detachment Fire was dispersed during the war and turned into countless fire seeds scattered across the Twelve States.”

“Most of the fire seeds became extinguished in a short period, and only a scarce few managed to survive due to chance. These surviving fire seeds, after recovering for tens of thousands of years, have a chance of birthing a trace of sentience, eventually forming the Li Fire Essence.”

“The Li Fire Essence retains a sliver of the might of the Southern Ming Detachment Fire, capable of incinerating everything. It is an excellent spirit object needed in forging treasures and is a prized possession dreamed of by law enforcers. After refining it, it can significantly enhance a law enforcer's power when using fire-based powers.”

“For a law enforcer to refine the Li Fire Essence, they need to feed it daily with their power of fire. Only when a certain connection has formed between the Li Fire Essence and the enforcer's mana can they attempt to envelope the Li Fire Essence to consume it and refine it into their body.”

“Be warned, the Li Fire Essence is excessively aggressive. Refining it is extraordinarily dangerous and should only be attempted by those with great luck.”

A flash of understanding crossed Su Nan's eyes after reading the information on the paper.

Compared to the introduction by the game, the information on the paper was overwhelmingly detailed.

“It's worth the fifty drops of essence blood!” Su Nan was very satisfied.

He took out the crystal embedded with the Li Fire Essence and tried to infuse his Fire Power into it.

The crystal housing the fiery essence was somewhat strange: it could isolate heat from the Li Fire Essence but still allowed mana to seep through.

As soon as the first wave of Fire Power entered the crystal, the Li Fire Essence sprang up like a child who had discovered something delicious.

Su Nan could feel that his Fire Power was being quickly devoured by Li Fire Essence.

However, even though it was consuming his power, the Li Fire Essence showed no changes.

Su Nan didn't stop. He continued to pour his Fire Power into the crystal.

Now, as he possessed two bloodlines that primarily controlled Fire Power, he had quite a lot of it.

Two minutes later, just as he felt his internal Fire Power about to be depleted, Su Nan was about ready to stop.

Suddenly, it seemed as if he established a faint connection with the flame inside the crystal. He could even sense the joy emanating from the flame.

“A connection was established this quickly?” Su Nan was taken aback.

“Wasn't it said that one needs to feed the Li Fire Essence with fire power daily for a chance to establish a connection? Why did I succeed so quickly?”

His eyes held a strange expression. However, the subtle connection was indeed real, and there was no hoax.

“Does this mean, I can attempt to refine this Li Fire Essence now?” Su Nan's eyes brightened again.

His gaze turned to the foreknowledge opportunity he'd obtained from the Great Perfection of his fourth bloodline.

He immediately decided to give it a try.

[You have established a preliminary connection with Li Fire Essence using the method traded from the Tiangong Pavilion and plan to refine it now.]

[You break the crystal encasing the Li Fire Essence, and then wrap it in your fire power, preparing to swallow it.]

[The Li Fire Essence can burn anything and is incredibly hot. Even with your Fire Power's protection, you find it challenging to endure its heat, and your Fire Power is being rapidly depleted.]

[You don't dare to delay and swiftly consume the Li Fire Essence.]

[However, the moment the Li Fire Essence enters your body, it struggles violently.]

[Your luck is terrible. The Li Fire Essence wreaks havoc within your body, and you are burned by the detached fire.]

[You died.]

“I died?” Su Nan was speechless.

What happened to the claim that a person of great luck could refine it? If there was a competition for the player with the most luck, he was definitely the one.

Of course, this was in regards to the luck obtained from the ranking list.

He couldn't guarantee if there were people with great inherent luck in this world.

If there were, there was no doubt that these people had far more luck than him.

“If it doesn't work once, try twice; if it doesn't work twice, try three times.”

“I don't believe that with so many foreknowledge opportunities, I still can't handle this Li Fire Essence!”

Su Nan determinedly decided.

He decided to feed the Li Fire Essence with his Fire Power every day, then try to refine it.

Over time, he was sure that he could refine it successfully.

Checking the time, Su Nan logged off the game.

To complete the Mainline Task of Demon Crisis, he had woken up early. Now that everything had settled down, he only then did he feel a wave of tiredness.

After eating something, he then took a nap.

Seven or eight hours later.

Su Nan logged back into the game.

It was almost time for the game to refresh.

“I wonder what the additional rewards on the leaderboard are?”

Opening the leaderboard, the top ten are still the same.

To his surprise, Zhou Cheng's ranking has dropped further, down to seventh!

The original Li Longfei and Li Ye had both raised their fourth blood veins to Great Accomplishment.

Below Zhou Cheng, was the captain of the Demon Investigation Bureau of Donglin City, Yang Zheng.

At this time, Yang Zheng had also fused his fourth type of bloodline, but it was only owned by beginners, not enough to surpass Zhou Cheng.

“Zhou Cheng really has fallen this time,” Su Nan shakes his head.

But he wouldn't underestimate Zhou Cheng.

Without meeting him, Zhou Cheng might have already entered the Spirit Level with his abilities.

Moreover, even if Zhou Cheng stumbled this time, he would return to the top five soon enough. He was a formidable opponent not to be underestimated.

He continued scrolling down the leaderboard.

He wanted to see how many players would stay this time.

For the public beta, there were a million players, with over ninety thousand from Dongchen State. However, only over eleven thousand players who completely mastered Demon Sutra remained on the leaderboard!

Only one in nine!

In the regional chat, a large number of players were complaining.

Many people were trying their best to complete the tasks in the last moments.

They were regretting.

Had they known that failing the survival task would mean they can't log into the game permanently, they would never have rushed to log in first.

“This time only over ten thousand people stayed. I wonder how many people will stay next time?” Su Nan sighed.

There was a failure penalty for the first public test and the odds are that the second public test would be too.

Of course, with the help of the first batch of players from the public test, the situation for the second batch of players must undoubtedly be much better.

Time passed.

In a blink of an eye, there were only a few minutes left before the game refresh.

Without waiting any longer, Su Nan took out his Cosmic Ring, which contained the Great Princess of the Skywolf Clan.

In the Cosmic Ring, the Great Princess was still unconscious.

Su Nan was prepared to try to resolve the blood vein symbiosis by committing suicide, as planned.

While there was a death limit on the survival task, there were no problems as Lang Thirteen, the character he was controlling, had not died once so far.

“I wonder if the backlash from the bloodline symbiosis can kill her?”

Switching to the Wheel of Fate, he changed the character to Lang Thirteen.

Then he took out a dagger, gritted his teeth and stabbed himself in the throat!

Feeling suffocated, Su Nan experiences a pain like never before.

A moment later, he climbed out of the game cabin, gasping for air like someone who had nearly drowned.

“This suicide is really not for the faint-hearted!” he looks pale, full of regret.

If he'd known how uncomfortable suicide was, he'd rather find a Xuan-level demon to fight – that would have been a lot easier to bear.

After a while, he recovered his strength, looked at the time, and it was precisely the time of the game refresh.

He logs into the game.

Not having the time to check on the Great Princess, the prompt indicating the completion of the survival task already appeared before his eyes.

[Congratulations, you have completed the Survival Trial Mission, do you wish to receive the reward?]

“Receive!”

[Congratulations, you have earned 15 Demon Points]

[Congratulations, you have earned a Mortal-Level Demon Sutra]

[Congratulations, you have earned a Mortal-Level Bloodline]

The rewards of a three-star level mainline task.

Up until now, such rewards are still quite significant to the ordinary players.

But for Su Nan, it's not a big deal anymore.

Fortunately, what he was really looking forward to was another reward.

[Congratulations, you have achieved outstanding results in this Survival Trial, you are ranked second in the final rankings, and you will get extra rewards, do you want to accept it now.]

The major reward is here.

Without thinking, Su Nan says:

“Accept!”
