Chapter 74: Chapter 74: What happened?

Divine Grace Water?

Drinking it grants ’extraordinary power’?

Damn, that’s some good stuff.

Yang Qizhou’s interest was instantly piqued.

Speaking of which, he already had quite a few treasures in his possession. Just counting the ’quasi-legendary’ items, he had more than one. The effect of the ’Hidden God’s Clothes,’ for example, was something he’d personally experienced to be immensely powerful.

But in the end, treasures are external aids; in the truest sense, they don’t count as one’s own power.

This time, however, it was different.

’Divine Grace Water’ contained the power of the Fire Stealing Ancient God. Drinking it would allow him to transform completely, to truly become a transcendent, no longer a fragile ordinary human.

This would truly be his own power.

"Finally becoming Superman... Or maybe Captain Homeland, hahaha."

Filled with excitement, Yang Qizhou refreshed the text.

The game continued.

...

"You obtain the ’Fire Stealing’ power, shedding your old self to step into the extraordinary realm in the truest sense of life transformation."

"Your long-standing anticipation of becoming a transcendent fills your heart with elation."

"Yet outwardly, you remain composed, adopting a listening posture—for the ’Old Sacrifice’ is still an alternative to consider."

"Lena didn’t keep you guessing and revealed the second form of compensation... Over the long years, the Fire Stealing Village devoutly worshipped the ’Fire Stealing Ancient God,’ performing sacrificial rituals to please the divine being. In return, the deity bestowed ’Old Sacrifice’ upon them."

"During the years of battling unknown horrors in the wilderness, much of the ’Old Sacrifice’ was consumed. Now, there only remain 1,500 units..."

"Lena stated that the Fire Stealing Village would keep ’500’ to support the Night Watcher squad’s daily needs, and the remaining 1,000 units would be given to you as compensation for their past mistakes."

"You may choose freely between these two offers..."

"At this crossroads of fate, the angry explorer who was deceived must make another decision."

"Will you demand ’Divine Grace Water’ or accept 1,000 units of ’Old Sacrifice’ as recompense for their errors?"

"Please make your choice."

...

1,000 Old Sacrifices—that truly was no small offer.

Yang Qizhou pondered this carefully.

Previously, during information exchanges with the Secret Cultivation Society, Leopard had disclosed that the formation of ’Old Sacrifice’ originated from purest ’faith.’

There were two ways to obtain ’Old Sacrifice’: first, by completing divine commissions; second, by hunting the deity’s favored.

Yet now Lena claimed that the Fire Stealing Village’s ’Old Sacrifice’ was bestowed by the Fire Stealing Ancient God, moved by the villagers’ devout faith.

This contradicted Leopard’s description somewhat.

"While the Secret Cultivation Society is merely a loose hidden organization, with the ’Cultivation Witness’ present, and the information on ’Old Sacrifice’ from Leopard, it shouldn’t involve deception."

"But Lena has no reason to lie either..."

"Since she explicitly offered to use the village’s ’Old Sacrifice’ to compensate the game character, there’s no need for her to mislead on this matter."

"Truly strange."

Muttering under his breath, Yang Qizhou just couldn’t make sense of it and decided to set the issue aside for now.

He began to focus seriously on another matter.

From any angle, the ’Divine Grace Water’ was undeniably more valuable. Containing Fire Stealing’s power, it could enable someone to become a true transcendent—a worth unmatched by 1,000 units of Old Sacrifice.

He even planned to leverage the power of the Dark Crow of Profane Fortune to gain a double share of ’Divine Grace Water.’

After all, according to Lena’s description,

the more ’Divine Grace Water’ one consumed, the stronger the extraordinary power attained would become. Of course, Yang Qizhou couldn’t pass up such an opportunity.

As for the ’Old Sacrifice,’

there would be opportunities later. Anyway, the Fire Stealing Village wasn’t going anywhere, and with the greedy, despicable nature of the game character, it was guaranteed that this wealth wouldn’t be overlooked—he only had to wait for the narrative to advance.

Heheheh.

Though the game character might be vile, shameless, corrupt, and utterly depraved, in many ways, he was surprisingly reliable.

With these thoughts in mind, Yang Qizhou chose ’Option One.’

...

...

"’Divine Grace Water,’ imbued with the power of Fire Stealing, granting true transformation into an extraordinary being—this seems quite intriguing."

"You subtly conveyed your choice."

"Lena didn’t seem surprised. She led you from your residence, bypassing the Night Watcher institution, to a highly secluded location."

"What you saw was a small temple, covering less than half an acre. The decorations were far from extravagant, and at the temple center stood a divine statue etched with the Fire Stealing Sacred Emblem. At its base sat an altar, with a glass cup of shimmering colors placed upon it, protected by a barrier."

"Lena used a special method to bypass the barrier, retrieved the glass vessel containing the ’Divine Grace Water,’ and presented it to you."

"You accepted the vessel..."

"The ’Divine Grace Water’ inside appeared pale yellow and viscous. You took a careful sniff and caught a faint stench, almost like decay."

"For some reason, you were reminded of the god blood that flowed out of the Abyss Old God and the Purple Orchid God’s Stomach as they fell, contaminating and twisting the earth into grotesque forms—it felt eerily similar."

"You heard Lena’s voice as she spoke... Drink the Divine Grace Water, and you’ll gain the power of Fire Stealing."

"You hesitated briefly."

"Then, you lifted the shimmering glass vessel, intending to drink the ’Divine Grace Water’ in one gulp and become a transcendent imbued with Fire Stealing power."

"Just then..."

"A radiant and unusually dazzling light burst forth from your body. Fixing your gaze, you realized it came from the ’Ancient Roots’—the most precious holy object of Dark Mist Town, obtained from the six-sided monster. At this moment, it seemed alive."

"You saw the ’Divine Grace Water’ drying up rapidly."

"In your daze, you beheld an extremely twisted sun, resembling a child’s crude drawing with no symmetry or form. At the center of this bizarre image was an eye closing shut."

"Was this really the sun?"

"Understanding suddenly dawned on you—the flames stolen by the Fire Stealing Ancient God indeed came from the sun."

"This was the ’Ancient Roots’ giving you some kind of revelation. It wasn’t true sun-gazing, so you weren’t contaminated,"

"You opened your eyes again."

"The ’Divine Grace Water’ had dried up completely."

"And on your left eye, indescribable colors briefly shimmered and then vanished."

"You had lost the ’Ancient Roots.’"

...

Yang Qizhou, initially excited about seeing the game character consume the ’Divine Grace Water’ to become a true transcendent, now found himself utterly dumbfounded.

????

Where the hell is my ’Divine Grace Water’?

What kind of nonsense did the Ancient Roots pull this time?

What the heck just happened?

At that moment, through the phone screen’s reflection, Yang Qizhou clearly saw a streak of indescribable color appear in his right eye for a fleeting instant, only to disappear as if it were an illusion.
