Chapter 25 Cursed Immortality! (1)

"So, you were watching me?" Jacob asked. He was now serene again.

"Hahaha My incarnation and the infinity pendant are my eyes and ears. I can observe my surrounding with both of them, but I can't interfere with or express my thoughts to anyone without finding a real successor.

"I was also watching your every action, and must I say you're a lunatic. Not only did you manage to break free from that little slave stone, you even dared to endure the pain of an immortal mark drilling through your heart while gripping my incarnation. I have never seen someone playing with their life like this before!"

Jacob wryly replied, "You don't understand. If you're watching me, you have already seen that device result, and I only have little time to live, so I just wanted to see if I can gain the secret of immortality.

"Even though there was only a one percent chance that it was true, I'll still take it without any hesitation because now I'll rather die for that one present chance of life rather than live with a ninety-nine percent chance of death with a hoax life."

Jacob truthfully answered, hiding nothing.

"Hahaha only someone who experienced true death can know what I mean to live. I'm I right, Jacob Steve from Earth?" The eerily voice playfully called Jacob as such.

Jacob merely sneered, "Heh, yes, you're right."

He never even thought for a second that this thing couldn't read his mind or see his memories because this book was just too mysterious and was talking inside his mind. And it was talking about the soul like drinking water. Then it was nothing but simple.

"Let me ask you, then, do you want immortality?"

It was a simple question, but this time this voice sounded solemn!

Jacob suddenly felt this question was as heavy as a mountain, but this was his biggest wish. He will give anything for it, so he answered without any hesitation, "Yes!"

"Think carefully, immortality will grant you an endless life, but all those you love or will love will perish one by one, leaving you alone every single time. Think, if one day everyone and everything turned into nothingness, and only you remained, you can't even kill yourself. You just had to live with nothing but darkness do you still want immortality?" It asked again with a solemn tone.

Jacob felt a shiver in his spine this time. It's not like he never thought like this before, but immortality was just a legend before as well. But now that he was given a chance, he was forced to think this way and even hesitate.

Suddenly, a beautiful face surfaced in his mind, and he remembered a very painful memory that he had buried deep in his mind for decades,

"JS, I don't want to leave you and my children but it seems life won't allow it. Just promise you won't forget me, ever."

"Hope"

Jacob quickly recovered and menacingly replied, "I don't care about anything as long as I live endlessly, so yes, even if everything turned to dust, I still want immortality!"

"Even if you have to sacrifice everything, kill everyone, destroy everything which comes between you and Immortality, will you still want it, even if the price is to become a vicious devil?" This voice was icy, like an abyss!ALL new hapters n nov()lbin(.)com

Jacob was again momentarily stunned before decisively answering, "I don't care, so yes! I'll pay any price!"

"Hahahaha good, very good, you have resolved to do anything for immortality, and only someone with this kind of resolved can walk the path of an immortal who's willing to sacrifice anything and keep walking forward." The maniacal eerily laughter rang again with a hint of hysteria.

"Congratulations, you have passed the third test of absolute resolved, and with this, you have passed all three tests and become my first inheritor from time immemorial.

"Let me officially introduce myself. I'm one of the Nine Universal Godly Scriptures 'Cursed Immortality,' and I'm also the only scripture that can grant true immortality!"

Jacob was shocked. He never thought this thing was still testing him, but he was gobsmacked when he heard the other words. However, he felt remarkably calm.

Jacob asked ambiguously, "You're saying, beside me, no one can inherit your prowess or become immortal?"

Cursed Immortality replied with a hint of pride, "Yes, the Nine Godly Universal Scriptures can only be inherited by a single person. It was impossible to learn until that inheritor died, and I'm the only scripture that grants true immortality!"

Jacob asked again, "Then, I'm an immortal now?"

"No, you're still a mortal and extremely weak one. You have a little over five years to live, and you have to change your body according to the real me. Or I don't want to become inheritor-less again." Cursed Immortality, said, with no hint of anxiety.

Jacob only sighed and lamented, "Why I'm not surprised all that talk, and you're still useless. In the end, I have to rely on myself."

Cursed Immortality sneered, "Yes, you're correct, you have to rely on yourself if you want to achieve immortality, and I know you have resolved it, so I'm looking forward to your performance!

"Now listen carefully. I don't have much time left since the inheritance test is complete.

"Firstly, in the future, I won't be able to communicate with you freely like this before you complete phase one.

"Second, I cannot help you even if you were to die, remembered I'm just a scripture, not a weapon.

"Third, now that you're my inheritor, I'm in my true form, which is living inside the Infinity Pendant, and that pendant is now bound to you. No one can take it from you, nor will it drop. So you don't have to worry about losing it.

"Fourth, you can only summon me once a day for half an hour by thinking or calling my name.

"Fifth, you will only gain access to the knowledge of 'Body Transformation Phase One. Before completing it, you won't be able to see the Second Phase.

"Sixth, now that Infinity Pendant has been activated, you'll get one cubic meter of storage space. You can store anything living or none living being inside the Infinity Pendant as long as it can fit inside.

"That's all for now. In the future, you'll be able to do far more with Infinity Pendant as long as you cultivate me to higher phases.

"Lastly, free advice. Don't throw that beast skin with red letters. It is very useful for you in the future."
