Chapter 784 The Brutal Gouyu, the Divine Judgment Codex, and The Succubus Raising Diary

Evil Dragon begged for a guide, but Xu Lang naturally wasn’t going to give him one.

You want a tutorial on taking the Nightmare Lord Sequence too?

That’s long out of print!

“Time’s almost up. I’m going back,” Tyrant Xu Lang said flatly.

Evil Dragon let go, watching Tyrant Xu Lang step into the vortex gate with an expectant look on his face. “You have to come back!”

Although he had a pile of invitations from other buildings, there was no guarantee that Evil King Building wouldn’t suddenly load a restriction.

If a game had no players at all, there’d be no way for it to continue. Evil King Building would definitely restrict him.

This kind of high intelligence was rarely seen in ordinary dormitory buildings.

But Evil King Building wasn’t an ordinary dormitory building!

So it was entirely possible!

……

Demon King Castle.

On the Nightmare Bed, Xu Lang had been dreaming happily. He opened his eyes and let out a long sigh.

Chi Qingman lay collapsed beside him, her eyelids trembling. Before long, she fell asleep too.

The things Evil Dragon had handed over were rather interesting. Xu Lang needed to inspect them in person to get the most out of the Nightmare Eye.

After glancing at Chi Qingman, Xu Lang pulled up his pants, got dressed, and walked through the vortex gate.

On the other side of the vortex gate was the Conference Castle in the Demon Box World. Even if ordinary people entered the Demon Box World, all they could see was a towering spire, and they had no way to approach it.

Xu Lang had put a great deal of thought into arranging the Demon Box World’s main world.

Anyone without an identity who wandered around would be devoured by a Tale.

“Hmm? Why does he look more and more like me?” In the conference room, Xu Lang stared at the face of the Tyrant before him, surprise written across his features.

Then he suddenly remembered one of his Spirit Talents.

【Mind Over Matter: The soul can transcend the physical body and exist independently, then seize entities in the material world, including living beings and inanimate objects, to use as a body. That body will automatically gravitate toward the original form of the physical body.】

Divine Descent, Mind Over Matter, and Light of Redemption seemed capable of interacting in some way.

Divine Descent: forcibly seize someone else’s body.

Mind Over Matter: recreate one’s own complete form of life.

Light of Redemption: ensure the soul always remains whole and unified. Even if shattered, it will gather again without losing its true spirit. It won’t turn me into a lunatic, nor will it create a second Xu Lang.

On top of that, he also had the incredibly sinister skill Primordial Manifestation of the Spirit.

Leaving a seed of power inside someone else seemed like planting a seed, but it was actually a complete version of himself.

“As long as I’m willing, I can split my soul into tens of thousands of pieces and inhabit different people. If they’re strong, I lie low. If they’re weak, I possess them outright!”

Xu Lang felt that this way of playing was a little like being the main god: planting his power in the Chosen Ones and letting them grow. Scattered, they were stars across the sky; gathered, they were a single blazing flame.

The gods who created the Later-born Sequences seemed to play the same way, only more ruthlessly. They directly reaped their creations and even fused themselves into the Sequences.

Vaguely, Xu Lang began to understand a “playstyle” outside the player system, and it was an extremely high-end one.

“This playstyle may be high-end, but it also seems a little dangerous!”

After pondering for a moment, Xu Lang shook his head and set the matter aside for now.

As he’d said before, there were many ways for him to grow stronger.

The player’s path to advancement was very good, and extremely safe.

Just then, ten minutes were up. The Tyrant disappeared, and Xu Lang refocused on this haul, bringing the Nightmare Eye to bear at full power.

About ten minutes later, Xu Lang had examined every bit of information about everything he’d obtained, inside and out, without missing a thing.

In the end, he kept only four items.

Three of them were incredibly powerful Wicked Artifacts, while the other was Evil King Building’s Dorm Owner Token.

【Dorm Owner Token: Brutal Gouyu】

【Type: Item】

【Level: None】

【Rarity: None】

【Effect 1 (Evil King Building Dorm Owner Token): Collecting all Dorm Owner Tokens unlocks Evil King Building’s ultimate trial】

【Effect 2 (Brutal Evolution): Use Silver Coins to convert them into Brutality. Brutality can accelerate Wicked Artifact evolution without limit】

【Effect 3 (Evil King’s Will): Only Evil King Building players can use it】

【Description: In ancient legends, the Dragon Jade Treasure kept in the Heavenly Realm could give birth to all things. Later, it was stolen by a great serpent with nine heads……】

From the description, the Brutal Gouyu looked like it had some hidden CG. But Xu Lang studied it with the Nightmare Eye for a long time and couldn’t find the slightest clue.

“There are plenty of Wicked Artifacts among the spoils, and they really are powerful…… The weakest are still Excellent-grade.” Xu Lang rubbed the black jade-colored gouyu and murmured, “But the problem is that all these Wicked Artifacts are bound items. Anyone who isn’t an Evil King Building player doesn’t even qualify to bind them again.”

Every Evil King Building player had an Excellent weapon, and they also had special effects like unlimited evolution. It made sense that they were so strong.

Even now, after they’d all died, the anti-theft mechanism was still in place.

For Xu Lang to absorb the Wicked Artifacts and the Brutal Gouyu, he’d have to deal with Evil King Building’s firewall. There was no avoiding it.

It all looked like bad news, but Xu Lang felt that everything was firmly under control.

Wasn’t it just picking a lock?

He was good at that!

“Dream Fusion, activate!”

Xu Lang closed his eyes and went straight to sleep.

Ever since he’d gained more Fusion attempts, he’d made a habit of keeping a few in reserve, so he hadn’t used them all up last night.

Even now, he still felt he never had enough Fusion attempts.

On one hand, the smelting facility and the production of Nightmare Essence were bottomless pits, and they also weakened the dormitory building’s foundation.

On the other hand, after the Building War, he’d ended up with a pile of items from Heaven’s Judgment Building, Amusement Park Building, and Evil King Building, all of which needed to be fused individually.

He’d already more or less figured out the spoils from Heaven’s Judgment Building and Amusement Park Building, and had even fused them into two decent items.

【Divine Judgment Codex (Bound)】

【Type: Curio】

【Rarity: Mythical】

【Level: Unlimited】

【Effect 1 (Divine Judgment Edicts): Write and release edicts. The shorter and clearer the edict, the stronger its effect】

【Effect 2 (Divine Authority Bestowed by Heaven): When the bound user’s overall attributes increase, new pages will appear】

【Current Pages: 2/3】

【Edict Contents: Blades and Flames, World-Destroying Plague】

【Description: A miraculous item formed from countless gathered essences】

……

【The Succubus Raising Diary: Delightful Magic Flask (Bound)】

【Type: Curio】

【Level: Unlimited】

【Rarity: Mythical】

【Effect 1 (Golden Beeswax): The bound user’s delight will cause the magic flask to produce beeswax. The beeswax can greatly increase its user’s Charm. Current progress: 29%】

【Effect 2 (Rich and Potent): Each batch of beeswax will be more effective than the last, but will also require more delight】

【Effect 3 (Master of the Magic Flask): The holder shares 50% of the Charm gained from the Golden Beeswax. Current shared Charm: “0”】

【Description: The more I do it, the stronger I get; the stronger I get, the more I do it. One day, no one will be able to refuse me. Congratulations, you have gained freedom of incorporation!】

……

When fusing these two items, Xu Lang had deliberately blurred the concept of level and distilled the ideas of “growth potential” and “adaptability.” His aim was to make sure they wouldn’t become obsolete even without being upgraded with Nightmare Coins. After fusion and refinement again and again, they had actually become two divine-grade items.

The Divine Judgment Codex was powerful, beyond dispute.

Xu Lang had already tested it. When it said blades and flames, it meant blades and flames. Its effect was hardly weaker than the Dragon Star Summoning Array. Both were war-grade items.

And the Delightful Magic Flask……

That was a long story.
