Chapter 67: Chapter 67: The Role of Holy Water, the Demon God’s Outburst


"Lin Ye is still not dead..."


In the wilderness of a certain alternate space, a tall woman lifted her head.


A sharp glint flashed across her eyes!


Theoretically, after entering an alternate space, all connections to the outside world are severed, but in some instances, external information can still be obtained.


For example, world-class announcements!


Such information is powerful enough to break the limitations of space, reaching every Professional.


Such as Gao Lanlan, currently within an alternate space.


"It’s good that you’re still alive so that I can kill you myself!" Gao Lanlan whispered.


Even though there is no evidence that Gao Wei died at Lin Ye’s hands...


She doesn’t care about the truth at all.


From the moment Gao Wei was destined not to leave the Secret Realm alive, all his teammates were already dead in Gao Lanlan’s heart.


So Lin Ye being able to come out alive, without staying forever in the Secret Realm with Gao Wei, is his original sin!


...


Inside the Cannibal Exotic Realm, Lin Ye already held that bizarre blood-colored Four-leaf Clover.


For the minions of the Flesh and Blood Demon God, it’s a Supreme Treasure,


but for others, it’s definitely a cursed item to avoid. Even touching it casually might bring the Demon God’s curse.


"No... no... that’s mine... mine..."


Not far away, Su Yaoyao struggled, crawling toward Lin Ye.


But with nearly half of her body consumed by the Flesh and Blood Demon Beast, death was inevitable.


Lin Ye couldn’t even be bothered to glance at her.


When holding the Four-leaf Clover, Lin Ye seemed to feel a gaze upon him.


[You are exposed to the gaze of the Abyss Demon God!]


Lin Ye saw this message but didn’t care.


Upon touching the blood-colored Four-leaf Clover, Lin Ye seemed to hear a cold voice whispering in his ear again.


Enticing him to accept its power...


Yet Lin Ye gave no heed.


When enticement failed, the other party resorted to threats.


At this moment, Lin Ye saw an abnormal status appear on his body.


[Cannibal Curse: Your attributes will continuously drain to zero, resulting in death]


Lin Ye raised an eyebrow.


There were people who were cursed from dabbling with the Demon God’s power. Those people ended up dead or mad, with most meeting tragic ends.


Thus, Lin Ye’s actions could certainly be seen as reckless.


The curse’s effects are indeed insidious, like a slow poison, watching your attributes drain to zero, then death.


This is the malevolent nature of curse items.


Such items circulate within human society, possessing incredible abilities, yet users uniformly bear the Demon God’s curse.


"Refining this Curse requires 100 Spiritual Essences."


Lin Ye considered the refinement cost manageable.


Luck Value is a very special attribute, not shown on personal panels, and items that can enhance Luck Value are exceedingly rare and expensive.


The blood-colored Four-leaf Clover could sharply boost Luck Value for a short period, though consuming at least 10 attribute points...


But to Lin Ye, attribute points were abundant!


The only restriction was that wielding the item brings a curse from the Flesh and Blood Demon God.


Though it required a full 100 Spiritual Essences for cleansing, it seemed worthwhile if the cursed item could be purified.


"Refine!"


Lin Ye commanded.


The Four-leaf Clover in his hand suddenly erupted with light, glowing brightly.


During the illumination, a wisp of blood essence dissipated from the Clover, the light dimmed, and the Clover shed its bloody hue, transforming into a completely green Four-leaf Clover.


Lin Ye immediately checked the refined Clover.


The effects were unchanged, but the type changed to ’Special (Unique, Bound),’ with all mentions of the Demon God removed.


Though it still required sacrificing attribute points to use, for Lin Ye, it was hardly an issue.


Attribute Value, as much as he wanted, he could farm easily.


Therefore, this skill which required careful consideration for others, had near-zero downsides for Lin Ye.


When the refining succeeded, whispers grew agitated in his ear.


It was rather vulgar.


Lin Ye checked his status...


The curse remained.


Evidently, refining the cursed item didn’t purify his own curse.


This was why the Flesh and Blood Demon God could still taunt him remotely.


But Lin Ye was prepared.


He reached into his Spatial Bag and pulled out a bottle.


This transparent bottle was filled with golden liquid, emitting a soft glow in the night.


Holy Water!


Indeed, it was the Holy Water Lin Ye had retrieved from the Ruined Town!


It served just one purpose in that place, to remove the BOSS’s status, reducing the difficulty of defeating the BOSS.


The moment Lin Ye revealed the Holy Water, the whispers in his ears grew increasingly frantic.


Lin Ye couldn’t help but laugh.


It seemed that thing was truly desperate.


Lin Ye unscrewed the cap and poured the Holy Water over his head.


[The curse upon you has been dispelled!]


Such is the power of items from the Innate Secret Realm, surpassing even the Demon God in the Abyss.


After all, no matter how mighty a Demon God is, they cannot go against the Abyss’s rules.


Just like the Flesh and Blood Demon God, as long as Lin Ye hadn’t touched his curse item, was powerless to curse him remotely.


The effect of the Holy Water, which removes any status from the target, naturally included the Demon God’s curse.


This conclusion might be a bit too advanced and obscure for beginners.


But for battle-hardened veterans like Lin Ye, who had tangled with Abyssal Demons in past life, such rule applications were quite elementary.


Having resolved all this, Lin Ye glanced ahead, seeing Su Yaoyao completely silent in gruesome death.


Lin Ye felt little emotion, opting to leave directly.


If he didn’t leave, the others would be forcibly kept within this alternate space until it collapsed, whereupon they would be ejected.


...


In the Professional Plaza of Shan City, City Lord Wei Tiangang was on edge.


He could never have anticipated the alternate space upheaval in Shan City to be triggered by an unprecedented Divine Demon Space.


Now he only hoped the casualties weren’t too severe.


Otherwise, he would be unable to absolve himself from responsibility.
