Chapter 709 - Chapter 709: Chapter 373: Attempt to Influence Rewards_2 (2/2)

As consistent with the game’s introduction, according to the ancient manual’s description, once the four realms are mastered, it is possible to transcend the river of time and travel through the past and future.

However, there is one huge drawback to this ancient manual which could be considered fatal.

That is the real reason why no one has been able to cultivate this ancient manual to great success.

“Slow! This ancient manual takes too long to cultivate, requiring a lot of time to endure!”

“The first realm alone would take at least a hundred years, and the more you advance, the longer it takes: a thousand years, ten thousand years, and finally, a hundred thousand years!” Su Nan was shocked once again.

A hundred thousand years?

Who can live that long?

Even those at the Divine Level and above are unlikely to achieve it.

The one who has lived the longest in his knowledge is the Demon Monarch of Ten Thousand Demon Ridge who survived from the Ancient Times.

However, that Demon Monarch has only managed to live this long by undergoing slumber and self-sealing, and in that state, there probably isn’t any chance of cultivation.

Moreover, that Demon Monarch already broke through the Saint Level in Ancient Times, and the demon clan has a much longer lifespan than humans. It is even possible that the Demon Monarch’s race is one of the long-lived species among the demon clan.

Various factors combined have allowed that Demon Monarch to live till now. If it were a human, they would have likely died and disappeared long ago.

Inevitably, he thought of the task’s introduction about the Cave Immortal.

The task clearly stated that the Cave Immortal had been an astonishing genius in his youth, but because he had wasted a lot of time on a peculiar ancient manual, his life ended up being wasted.

Undoubtedly, the ancient manual the Cave Immortal once cultivated was this one!

“It seems impossible for me to cultivate this ancient manual to perfection, but maybe I could just focus on the first two realms.”

His gaze fell on the panel, and a prompt popped up.

[Would you like to spend 10 demon power points to accelerate the cultivation progress of the Four Seasons Reversing Sutra by one year?]

You can use demon power to accelerate cultivation!

This was a silver lining in his misfortune, Su Nan breathed a sigh of relief.

“10 demon power points to speed up one year of progress, 100 points for ten years, 1,000 points for a hundred years.”

“In that case, if I want to achieve the first realm, Spring, I just need a thousand demon power points.” His eyes brightened.

A thousand demon power points would be astronomical for ordinary players, but it isn’t unbearable for him at the moment.

After all, he needs 1,500 demon power points to upgrade the Life Wheel Sutra!

“I won’t be able to cultivate this ancient manual in a short time, so I’ll have to wait.”

Sighing, he stopped looking at the Four Seasons Reversing Sutra and turned to look at the mission rewards.

This time, he didn’t immediately accept the rewards as he did before.

The reason was simple: he wanted to attempt something – an experiment concerning the Incense Prayer Technique.
