Otherworldly Skeleton Evolution

“A new Nether Emperor?”

The others couldn’t hear Jiang Cheng’s words, but Redno’s response was audible to all.

Their gazes instinctively turned to Jiang Cheng.

Redno’s tone suggested he wanted Jiang Cheng to become the Nether Emperor.

Upon realizing this, they all stared at Jiang Cheng in shock.

The Emperor realm was considered equal to the Blood Hell Demon Lord’s level.

That’s around level 3000. They wondered if Jiang Cheng had any chance of reaching such a level.

“Alright, the past is over a thousand years ago, too painful to recall. I’ve said what needed to be said. You’ve allowed me to express thoughts I’ve buried for three thousand years, fulfilling my wish. I’m very grateful.”

Redno waved his hand, and fourteen streams of light flew to each person present.

“These are some of my personal treasures. They’re nothing extraordinary, but please accept them.”

Nothing extraordinary?

Hearing Redno’s words, the group didn’t think much of it, assuming the items were indeed unremarkable.

But when they each examined their gift, their expressions immediately changed.

“Uh… so this is what he means by ‘nothing extraordinary.’ Indeed, not that impressive,” Yun Yin said sarcastically, looking at the glowing object in her hand.

【Seven-Colored Radiant Rope】

Quality: Legendary

Description: When equipped on a mount, it creates a seven-colored flowing light effect. Each light stream deals 80% of the user’s attack power as damage to enemy units within a 3-meter radius, lasting 10 seconds, with a 30-minute cooldown.

While this might have been a mere trinket for Redno, to Yun Yin it was practically a divine artifact.

After all, she didn’t even have a single legendary equipment item on her.

“Quick, Yun Bao, wake up! Come see this divine artifact!” Yun Xiang exclaimed, her expression changing as she looked at the glowing object in her own hand.

“Huh… divine artifact?!! What divine artifact, Sister Yun Xiang? Where is it?” Yun Bao’s eyes flew open, instantly awake at the mention of a divine artifact.

“Wow, what a beautiful teddy bear! And it can even be summoned! It really is a divine artifact!” Yun Bao immediately fell in love with the grey teddy bear in her hand, caressing it fondly.

“Quick, share its attributes in the team chat,” the others urged, their eyes lighting up.

A summonable teddy bear might be some kind of powerful Boss.

“Oh, alright, Sister Yun Xiang. Here, let me show you all,” Yun Bao replied.

【Peaceful Teddy Bear Servant】

Quality: Legendary

Description: Special accessory. When worn, it increases HP by 300 points and Mana by 300 points. When used, it summons a grey bear with 50,000 HP and 500 Defense to fight, lasting for 30 minutes, with a one-day cooldown.

“See? This is… Oh, right, where did I get this… Oof.” Before Yun Bao could finish speaking, Yun Xiang knocked her unconscious again.

Everyone looked at the nonchalant Yun Xiang with shocked expressions, feeling a chill in their hearts.

“Big Sis is becoming more ruthless. Poor Yun Bao, she finally came to the Blood Hell Forbidden Land, only to be unconscious the whole time. It’s terrifying.”

“This is the easiest I’ve ever gotten legendary equipment since I started playing. Following the Skeleton God really pays off. It’s just a shame I can’t join Cutie Shakes the World yet,” Yun Yin said smugly.

“Shut your mouth. It’s just one legendary equipment. Little Cutie has dozens of sets already, always fretting over which set to wear. You’re nowhere near her level,” Yun Long retorted, looking at Yun Yin with disdain.

“Come on, Big Senior Brother. You’re such a killjoy,” Yun Yin replied.

After Yun Long’s words, the group’s high spirits instantly vanished.

Remembering that they each had dozens or even hundreds of legendary equipment items in their inventories, all belonging to A Silly Cutie, they looked at the glowing objects in their hands with less excitement.

Compared to A Silly Cutie, they felt insignificant.

Regardless of their feelings, A Silly Cutie was absolutely delighted.

She had too many legendary equipment items, many with special effects, and most weren’t really suitable for her.

So she wasn’t envious.

Redno’s gift was her favorite and most suitable for her.

Looking at the miniature potted plant in her hand, A Silly Cutie was secretly overjoyed.

【The Other Shore Kindred Spirit Tree】

Level: First Stage (0/5200)

Type: Treasure Tree

Quality: Mythical

Description: A tree symbolizing unwavering kindred spirits, growing at the edge of the sea on the Other Shore. It takes a thousand years to grow one.

Effect: After forming a kindred spirit alliance with another person, you can gain kindred spirit points. The Kindred Spirit Tree has nine stages, currently at the first stage. Kindred spirit points can unlock special effects corresponding to each stage. Currently, the skill “Dawn and Dusk” can be unlocked.

Dawn and Dusk: Consumes 3000 Mana and 520 kindred spirit points. When used, for 30 minutes, gain 100% of all attributes and skills of the person you formed an alliance with. Cooldown: 1 day.

A Silly Cutie wasn’t particularly interested in the Dawn and Dusk effect. Rather, she was excited that this Kindred Spirit Tree needed daily watering and pruning to harvest kindred spirit points.

This gave her another activity to do with Skeleton Big Brother every day.

Moreover, forming a kindred spirit alliance seemed like…

A Silly Cutie’s face suddenly turned slightly red as she secretly glanced at Jiang Cheng, who was examining the ancient book in his hands.

“Nether Moon Canon?” Jiang Cheng asked, flipping through the ancient book in his hand.

“You just said I can’t master the Nether Moon technique, so what’s the purpose of this Nether Moon Canon for me?”

Redno shook his head, his lips curling slightly. “Just consider it the hope of a dying man.”

After saying this, Redno let out a long sigh, looking at the blood-colored plains in the distance and listening to the cheerful voices around him, remaining silent for a long time.

Jiang Cheng looked deeply at Redno without saying anything more, then put the Nether Moon Canon into his cloak.

Although he didn’t fully agree with Redno’s past actions, Jiang Cheng set aside his previous hostility towards this old man who had guarded the Blood Hell Forbidden Land for a thousand years for humanity and whose time was running out.

After all, Redno had always been the victim.

Hades was the one who truly deserved to die.

[System Prompt: Congratulations on triggering the ultimate hidden quest, Blood Hell Demon Lord’s Observation quest updated.]

[Hidden Quest 1: SSSSS rank, Kill Hades, the lord of the Blood Hell Forbidden Land. Quest reward: Heaven Soul Water.]

[Hidden Quest 2: SSSSS rank, Resurrect the Nether Emperor or replace the Nether Emperor, control the Nether River, overthrow the Nine Nether Worlds, and make reincarnation manifest in the world. Quest reward: Earth Soul Water.]

After reading these two quests, Jiang Cheng’s heart stirred.

Humans have three souls and seven spirits, divided into Heaven, Earth, and Destiny souls. The first spirit is Heavenly Thrust, the second spirit is Spiritual Wisdom, the third spirit is Qi, the fourth spirit is Strength, the fifth spirit is Central Hub, the sixth spirit is Essence, and the seventh spirit is Heroic.

Heaven and Earth dual souls… Could this be the key to his rebirth as a human?
