When Gu Nan returned to the Astral Realm, the notification in the Evil God's Shrine gradually appeared.
Although there were some accidents in the "Protect the White Dew" quest, Gu Nan was still satisfied. Not only did he successfully obtain the reward, but he also got to know a "reliable" partner.
That's right, even if Land Marigold's actions were not right, betraying her teammates for the sake of the reward, Gu Nan did not mind!
To put it bluntly, he had seen even more immoral and ridiculous things in the game in his previous life. Most of the players in the Evil God game had no morals, so this kind of thing was all too common.
If a few players cooperated sincerely in a dungeon, then either there was no benefit in betraying one's teammates, or the quest was too difficult and they could not afford to lose even one person.
As for whether Land Marigold would betray him or not … Gu Nan was not afraid. He was always on guard against everyone around him, not one more.
Most importantly … he was about to advance to Tier 3. There was no way he would be afraid that Land Marigold would resist him!
After receiving the Mission Reward, Gu Nan had 1,010 Game Points and 51 Sin Points, which was just enough for him to advance to the next level.
After entering the Evil God's Shrine, Gu Nan sat quietly on the Evil God's Throne for a while, allowing his emotions to gradually calm down, before giving the order.
"Advancement."
"Exchange Item: Evil God Advancement. Currently a Tier 2 Evil God. Advancement cost: 1,000 points. Crime Point requirement: 50 … Requirements met. Advancement begins. "
"About to advance to Tier 3 Evil God, please choose your core skill."
"Shadow." Choosing his core skill, Gu Nan naturally chose the path that he was most familiar with in his previous life, "Shadow".
"Shadow", or the "Law of Shadow", was one of the highest level Laws in the game. It was an existence of two sides to the Law of Light, and it was ranked first among the core skills.
Of course, the higher the level of a skill, the higher the skill's control. A pro player like Gu Nan was not worried about this.
As an inexplicable force entered his body, Gu Nan felt as if he was in an infinite void, and a force was approaching from afar, slowly devouring the entire night sky.
"This is … the power of shadows?" Endless comprehension surged into Gu Nan's mind, giving him a splitting headache.
After all, reality wasn't a game. His body could be strengthened, but when Gu Nan began to enter the Transcendent phase, he couldn't grasp the so-called "natal techniques" out of thin air.
Unless he could comprehend all of this, his strength would not be able to keep up with his realm.
Of course, this was not difficult for Gu Nan.
For a high-end player like him, his Comprehension was already top-notch, and his understanding of the Shadow Element was also far beyond a normal person's. He knew every single usage of the Shadow Element like the back of his hand. All he lacked was the theory behind it.
And those insights from the Evil Divine Palace had helped him "understand everything."
From now on, even without the Evil Divine Palace, Gu Nan might still be able to comprehend the Law of Shadow on his own.
In the empty palace, Gu Nan stood alone at the center. The dark shadow gradually spread from his feet until it covered the entire palace.
At a certain moment, the shadow suddenly slowed down.
In Gu Nan's consciousness, a certain force from far away seemed to have somehow descended on him, trying to stop him from making a breakthrough.
However, the force was too weak. It disappeared in the blink of an eye after being washed away by the Law of Shadow at the Origin level.
"Is this karma? I left it in the Langya World, but I didn't expect it to be so useless. "Gu Nan washed away the force and shook his head.
After a long time, Gu Nan slowly opened his eyes. The shadow under his feet suddenly expanded and then disappeared.
"Shadow Body."
He stretched out his right hand and clenched it. A pitch-black longsword gradually formed. The sword was thin and long, and it flickered with a faint black glow.
The familiar touch made Gu Nan smile. He held his sword and stabbed it lightly, causing a strange ripple to reverberate.
After successfully advancing to Rank-3, not only did his body toughen up to an unprecedented level, but he also truly obtained the core skill, Shadow Power.
According to the cultivation theory of the Cosmic Realm, going from Innate to Transcendent was a process of soul transformation.
Although the theory of the Evil God's advancement was different, the final result was similar. Gu Nan's soul was also greatly strengthened, and the power of his skills had reached Rank-3. It was no longer the castrated version that relied on equipment.
More importantly, because of the effect of the Shadow Earring, his Shadow Power was actually Rank-2!
As a core skill, Shadow Power had the open skill Hidden Shadow at Rank-1, and Shadow Body at Rank-2.
Shadow Body was used to control shadows to create things. Not only could it create a weapon that was extremely convenient and could change at any time, but it could also transform into armor for defense. At the highest level, it could even create a humanoid clone.
Shadow was worthy of being one of the top core skills. Not only was it powerful, but it was also ridiculously difficult to use. Ordinary players would need at least three to five years of practice to create a clone.
Of course, this was not a difficult task for Gu Nan.
After practicing Shadow Body, Gu Nan's consciousness returned to his body.
"The next step is to go to the Immortal and Demon World. With my current strength, hunting Transcendent is no longer difficult, and I can also earn a wave of sin points and points." Gu Nan was thinking about his next move.
Although he had advanced to Rank-3 and had 50 sin points, it was still not enough.
The next three points were 100, 200, and 300. Three normal skill bars would be opened, and he could buy normal skills. Core skills would also be upgraded.
If he wanted to advance to Rank-4, he would need a total of 500 sin points.
The number of points needed was even more astronomical, and Gu Nan had to free up some points to buy some Rank-3 equipment.
For example, the Observer's Eyepiece and even the Four Origin Crossbow could already be used up, and they were just waiting for Gu Nan to buy better replacements.
"But before that, I have to make a trip to the Samsara Club."
Gu Nan did not forget that he had accepted the job of fighting coach, so he could buy enough Star Iron and get in touch with the Astral Gate.
There were many strong people in the Astral World, and Gu Nan did not have the capital to do whatever he wanted, so he had to abide by the rules here.
…
Just as Gu Nan was planning to go to the Immortal and Demon World, outside the Blue Dragon Hall headquarters, which was Yan Xiaoxiao's manor, two people secretly arrived.
"Master, this is the new headquarters of the Blue Dragon Hall." A strong young man stood beside a white-haired middle-aged man and bowed.
"Changing five headquarters in three days, this Blue Dragon Hall's Hall Master is a cautious person," the white-haired man said softly with an interested smile.
He then turned to the young man and said, "The murderer who killed your Martial Uncle Han might be inside. Don't you want to avenge him?"
The young man Du Mian's face instantly became ferocious, but he quickly calmed down and said, "I am no match for that person, so I need to ask Master to help me. Otherwise, I might never catch up to him."
"Hahahaha!" The white-haired man laughed heartily and patted Du Mian's shoulder.
"Not bad. Knowing when to yield, this is the way to achieve great things, "the white-haired man said meaningfully. "If you don't admit defeat, you will always lose. I am very happy that you can learn to retreat!"
Du Mian heard this and was silent for a long time. Finally, he let out a long sigh and said, "Master, please kill this person."
"There is no hurry." The white-haired man waved his hand lightly and said, "The son of a rich family should not sit under the eaves. The person has not appeared yet, so why should we expose ourselves? "
