Lord: Sequence Overlord

Chapter 123 The Blood Clan's Legacy Spirit Realm (Please Subscribe)
Chapter 122

The Bloodthirsty Shark can reach Sequence 4 at its highest, making it a small overlord even in the deep sea.

Marisa rode the Sea Shark, which transformed into a Bloodthirsty Shark, though it was only Sequence 6.

However, the Sea Shark had placed a Sequence 4 Bloodthirsty Shark bone in its steam furnace, releasing a Sequence 4 aura at the Sequence 6 level. As long as it wasn't unlucky enough to encounter a Sequence 4 extraordinary sea beast, the Sea Shark could roam freely in the deep sea.

However, knowing only the general area of ​​the deep sea makes finding hidden treasures a needle in a haystack.

So Marisa quickly used the Ocean Hunter's innate skill, Deep Sea Maze. This skill not only allowed the Sea Shark to further conceal itself, but also enhanced its ability to perceive all spiritual substances in the deep sea.

However, after searching for a long time, the Sea Shark found nothing.

On the contrary, Rosen, looking at the spiritual painting of the deep seabed in his hand, had already locked onto his target.

That mysterious skull was of demigod quality; it was not something that Marisa, a Sequence 6 expert, could easily find.

Through the gray rat's divination, he could only perceive the specific location of the fragments and a vague image.

Rosen transformed the blurry images into spiritual paintings, comparing them to similar objects he had seen in the ocean.

He spent a long time searching with the Sea Shark before finding an underwater reference that was exactly the same as the one in the painting.

Rosen released Nightmare Slime, which merged into the water and slowly sank to the bottom of the sea.

Then it wriggles on the seabed, and once it reaches a certain location, it begins to eat.

While eating the sea mud and coral, it swallowed a piece of the sea mud.

Rosen knew he had found the right place. He wrapped his arms around all his spiritual energy, endured the pressure of the deep sea, and stretched his hands out of the window of the mysterious study. Then he threw the mines he had drawn one by one at the Sea Shark.

Squeezed by the pressure of the deep sea, all of these mines exploded close to the Sea Shark.

Faced with the sudden attack, the Sea Shark's first reaction was not to fight back but to retreat immediately.

Logically speaking, the fact that the Sea Shark's radar did not lock onto the enemy immediately indicates that the enemy's concealment capabilities are stronger than its own. Moreover, being suddenly attacked in this sea area suggests that the enemy may have already been lying in ambush.

In such a situation, if the enemy's strength exceeds that of our own, even a slight delay could result in us being swallowed by the sea.

To survive long on the high seas, one must never let anger cloud one's judgment.

Fight only if you can win, and fight only if the benefits outweigh the losses.

They're not like villains in movies who're always rushing to their deaths.

While the Sea Shark surfaced to search for the enemy, the Nightmare Slime began to eat like crazy on the seabed.

The original Nightmare Slime was only the size of a palm, but over the years it has been fed too well, and its true size can now expand to tens of meters in diameter at any time. When it is fully expanded, the Abyss Maw can swallow everything within a radius of tens of meters.

In less than half an hour, the Nightmare Slime had devoured all the seabed debris within a kilometer radius.

The undigested food has all been stored in the scavenging space.

Rosen collected the fragments and pieced them together, which perfectly matched the broken parts of the front and back of the mysterious skull.

This means that all the bone fragments have been collected, and the Dragon Song and Sea Shark are destined to find nothing.

After failing to locate the enemy for a long time, the Sea Shark made contact with the Dragon Song through the spirit world.

The Dragon Song, which had been moving slowly, began to accelerate, but after reaching the target sea area, it still couldn't find anything.

Rosen also manipulated his self-portrait clone to pretend to go into the sea to search, but his expression turned very ugly when he saw the scene of the seabed being dug up three feet deep.

In the end, under Rosen's unfriendly gaze, Anil had no choice but to bite the bullet and send him back to Blue Whale City.

After returning home, Rosen immediately gave Dragon Song a bad review in the guild before checking whether the skull fragments could have the same sensory enhancement effect as the mysterious skull.

The results were ineffective on the five senses, but still effective on the sixth sense, albeit at a much lower efficiency.

However, none of this matters. The mysterious skull fully awakened his sixth sense in ten hours, and it would be the same whether the skull fragments awakened his sixth sense in a hundred days. In any case, his spiritual strength was still four points away from 24, giving him ample time to raise his extraordinary five senses to LV3.

If you directly digest the fragments through binge eating, you'll likely gain even more benefits from your sixth sense.

Since it wasn't difficult to obtain, Rosen didn't care whether he was willing to give it up or not.

He threw the fragments directly to the Gluttonous Mind Beast and then began to create spiritual paintings day after day.

All sorts of extraordinary sea creatures, all sorts of extraordinary ships, all sorts of extraordinary humans, and even all sorts of wonders on the sea—everything that could be drawn was captured and turned into spiritual paintings stored in the Void Album.

He didn't stay entirely confined to the Void Gallery; he would occasionally visit other aristocratic painters.

Through exchanges and learning, my painting skills are improving subtly and gradually.

If you get too tired of drawing, you can enter the spiritual realm to make a small fortune.

Although not every spiritual realm can yield a large amount of spiritual crystals, carrying a divine domain with you, even if each resident doesn't gain much, can accumulate enough to put the divine domain into a virtuous cycle.

……

Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Rosen thoroughly enjoyed the past two years. For the first four years, he was either avoiding danger or frantically drawing self-portraits, never truly enjoying life. It was only after these two years that he truly integrated into the world he had transmigrated to.

His speech, behavior, and way of dealing with people were completely different from the person he was before he transmigrated.

Without realizing it, Rosen began to spend less time drawing.

Before he knew it, Rosen had become enthusiastic about aristocratic balls.

Unbeknownst to him, he had perfectly inherited Little Rosen's riding skills and successfully befriended many noblewomen in the Blue Whale Kingdom.

Until this day, the Gluttonous Nen Beast, forgotten in the mysterious study, completely digested the fragments of the mysterious skull.

In that instant, Rosen could no longer suppress his extraordinary five senses, which he had held back for two years.

The sixth sense is fully awakened, and the five extraordinary senses are also upgraded to LV3.

[Transcendent Senses LV3: This ability maximizes a hunter's basic five senses, enhances their perception of spirituality, allows the hunter to freely increase or decrease their own and a single enemy's five senses, and significantly reduces the negative effects on their own five senses.]

[Enhanced Trait: Sixth Sense - Fully Awaken the Sixth Sense and Gain Extraordinary Intuition]

The moment he gained extraordinary intuition, Rosen sat quietly in the mysterious study for an entire day.

With his extraordinary intuition, he could clearly sense that he had actually regressed.

While his spirituality has increased to 23 points, his various basic hunter skills, whether it be hiding skills, hunting skills, shooting accuracy, body control, or even the ability to multitask, are actually not as good as they were two years ago.

Because multitasking was too tiring, he stopped multitasking one day while swinging on a swing with a wealthy lady.

Since then, it seems I've never been able to multitask again?
Only then did Rosen realize what it meant to be born in hardship and die in comfort.

Everyone wants a peaceful and enjoyable life; no one wants to study hard when they can lie down and relax.

However, over time, spiritual activity will gradually subside.

Many nobles fail to advance further not because they lack talent, but because, like him, they become so engrossed in enjoyment that they unknowingly neglect their cultivation.

Knowing full well that this is not good, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

If Rosen hadn't fully awakened his sixth sense and gained extraordinary intuition, he wouldn't have been able to clearly realize this.

With his current power, even if he were to completely indulge in enjoyment, he was confident that he could advance to Sequence 4.

Their lifespan is at least a thousand years, allowing them to enjoy a life of luxury for a millennium.

But a thousand years later, it will inevitably turn into a pile of bones.

Rosen doesn't actually reject this kind of life; after all, a thousand years of enjoyment is better than ten thousand years of arduous cultivation.

However, his intuition told him that continuing down this path would only lead to his death.

The mysterious study couldn't have recognized him as its master without any reason, couldn't have brought him to this world without any justification, and couldn't possibly have had a little Rosen who happened to have the exact same name and appearance as him.

Adding to the mysterious spirit realm that led to the deaths of Rosen's parents, he might not even live to a ripe old age if he indulges in pleasure.

Rosen sighed and, after pondering for a long time, devised a training plan for himself.

I paint during the day and go to Youkexin City for a dream dinner at night.

Then, never slack off for five days a week, and finally go out for a walk or visit a spiritual place on Saturday and Sunday.

Whether hunting in the spirit realm or traveling and sightseeing, he can relax and enjoy life.

Once it becomes a habit, you'll get used to it.

Half a month passed quickly, and Rosen gradually regained the peak state he had been in two years ago in the Hunter Sequence.

As for the painters, they have actually made considerable progress over the past two years.

While indulging in pleasure may certainly lead to a decline in mental and physical strength, it also broadens one's horizons. For a painter, these broadened horizons become sources of inspiration for their work.

In particular, Rosen is skilled at portrait painting, and in the past two years he has relied on painting art portraits for wealthy women to improve his popularity.

In fact, if one simply wants to become a painter, enjoying life does not affect improving one's skills.

However, the hunter sequence is destined to involve hunting, and hunting is never easy.

At Sequence 9, the final spark of spirituality activates the extraordinary bloodline.

At Sequence 8, the last bit of spirituality needs to be further activated to unlock the extraordinary bloodline.

There are many methods, the simplest of which is to use the Sequence 7 Slime Bloodline to stab the Sequence 8 Nightmare Slime Bloodline.

However, Sequence 7 slimes are very hard to find, so after considering it, Rosen decided to use another method.

That evening, Rosen arrived at Count Susan's mansion by carriage.

Not all nobles are content with pleasure. There are always ambitious nobles who constantly enter the spiritual realm to improve their strength and strive to gain more merits to advance their noble titles. However, there are two outcomes for those who strive: failure or death.

If she has children to inherit the title, that's fine; if she doesn't have children, she can only become a widow.

Susan inherited the hereditary earldom for this reason. Of course, she could only inherit it for one generation. The next generation had to pass it on to the bloodline holder of her deceased husband's family. Unless her deceased husband's family line completely died out, her children after remarriage could be demoted one rank to become hereditary viscounts.

Susan is a very resourceful woman, and the spiritual realm passed down from her deceased husband's family is also very special.

Rosen had his eye on this spiritual realm, and of course he wouldn't compromise himself.

From any angle, Susan is a stunning beauty who gets your blood pumping.

"You came……"

Susan personally greeted Rosen and led him to the master bedroom of the castle.

Rosen was so exhausted after a whole night that his back was almost broken, but he finally managed to persuade Susan to allow him to open that spiritual realm.

It wasn't that Susan was stingy or reluctant, but rather that she was a little worried that he would die in that spirit realm.

Susan's late husband went to jail and never came out.

"Don't worry, you know how strong my Void Gallery's survival ability is."

Rosen said confidently, toying with Susan's long blonde hair.

Susan was still a little worried, but she also knew that she couldn't stop Rosen from making his decision.

She couldn't give up her title to go with Rosen, and Rosen couldn't give up his title to go with her either.

Therefore, they were destined to be lovers, and their deep affection for each other would only lead to an earlier separation.

The next morning, after practice, Susan, leaning against the wall, led Rosen deeper into the castle.

There is a pool of blood here, and inside the pool is a statue of a god.

Susan took out the noble emblem, infused it with spiritual power, and then placed it on the back of Rosen's hand, whereupon it instantly erupted with intense heat.

The aroma of barbecue filled the air, and a rose emblem was branded onto the back of Rosen's hand.

Susan said nothing and simply left silently.

Perhaps she was worried that repeating what she had said before would only bring her more heartbreaking bad news.

Rosen instantly teleported in front of the vampire statue, extending his right hand, branded with the emblem, to the vampire statue's mouth.

The statue seemed to come alive, biting his hand and beginning to suck his blood.

At this moment, the power of the emblem began to resist, and the vampire statue stopped sucking blood upon touching the power of the emblem.

Rosen retracted his right forearm, which was almost turned into a dried-up corpse, and a spatial vortex composed of blood instantly appeared in the mouth of the vampire statue.

Rosen did not resist the pull of the spatial vortex and was sucked into the statue's belly and entered its spiritual realm in the blink of an eye.

When the teleportation ended, Rosen had arrived in a medieval-style city.

Rosen reviewed the information about the spiritual realm one last time, and after confirming that it was correct, he casually activated Angel's Blessing to summon the Angelic Beast.

As the angelic beast fully healed his right forearm injury, he also finished reading the information from the Spirit Realm.

[Bloodline Glory: Inherited Spirit Realm]

[Level: Sequence 4]

[Synopsis: Chaohu City prospers under the rule of the Church of Life, yet no one knows that people disappear every night, and these missing persons are forgotten during the day. Your only relative has disappeared, but you haven't forgotten her...]

Rosen extended his left palm toward himself, and the canvas of his mind was instantly projected onto his palm through his eyes.

A mirror materialized in his palm, and sure enough, his appearance had transformed into that of a sinister-looking young man.

The Inherited Spirit Realm is a very special kind of spiritual realm.

This spiritual realm is related to the family's origin. Outsiders cannot move freely when they enter the spiritual realm. Instead, they will be given a new identity to replace the ancestor and then relive the story that the ancestor once experienced, thereby obtaining the ancestor's inheritance in the process.

Generally speaking, the inherited spiritual realm is of little significance to people outside the family.

Because of the inheritance they received, without a matching extraordinary bloodline, they could not realize their full potential.

However, the realm of Blood Clan Glory is very special. The ancestors of the Simmons family obtained the extraordinary bloodline of the Blood Clan in Chaohu City.

The vampires in this city possess a secret treasure called Fallen God Blood, which benefits almost all extraordinary bloodlines.

Because of this special treasure, many nobles from the Blue Whale Kingdom make a trip to this Inherited Spirit Realm.

Because the power of the Spirit Realm needs to be replenished after it is consumed, a single ticket is worth five million Spirit Crystals.

Rosen is able to enter for free now, which is thanks to a great deal of favor.

The moment Rosen passed through the city gate, a vast amount of memories spanning at least twenty years appeared out of thin air in his mind.

These memories even confused his spirituality, causing him to inherit some of the feelings he had for his family from his current identity.

This is an unavoidable thing in the inheritance of the spiritual realm, but as long as you leave the spiritual realm, your spirituality will naturally return to purity.

Rosen processed these memories with great experience and roughly figured out what to do next.

He is now Syray Simmons, and he has a sister named Farah Simmons.

The siblings lost their parents at a young age, and Siree raised Farah by himself, showing her a deep bond as both a brother and father. However, Farah suddenly disappeared last night, and everyone else forgot about her except Siree.

Logically speaking, this inherited spiritual realm has existed for 20,000 years, and the Simmons family should have already thoroughly explored it.

However, the Simmons family left no information about the specific plot of this spiritual realm, allowing all the younger generations to play their parts freely after entering. The only explanation is that knowing the truth would not be conducive to their performance, but would instead bring uncontrollable dangers.

"The Cult of Life..."

Rosen walked thoughtfully toward the city church.

The Church of Life is the ruler of Chaohu City, and its followers worship the benevolent and righteous Goddess of Life.

Before the establishment of the World Government 20,000 years ago, humanity was scattered and divided, with many people worshipping different gods.

The vast majority are gods from other races, but a few are human gods.

According to Xirei's memory, the Goddess of Life is a human deity.

However, this is unlikely. Although the World Government abolished religious devotion after its establishment and instead guided faith towards loyalty, worship, and blessings, it did not exterminate the human gods.

If the Goddess of Life is a human deity, it's impossible that she wouldn't be mentioned in books about human deities.

Therefore, the Goddess of Life must be fake; her true nature should be that of a vampire.

Those who disappeared in Chaohu City were either used as blood-sucking food or were abducted and transformed into vampires. Behind the apparent prosperity and peace of Chaohu City lie countless piles of white bones forgotten by their loved ones.

The Simmons family's ancestor, Shire, likely acquired the vampire bloodline while searching for his missing sister.

According to Xi Lei's memory, he went out of town early in the morning to pick the roses that the goddess of life liked.

Then they prepared to go to the church to ask the goddess for help in finding Farah's whereabouts.

Rosen hesitated, unsure whether to continue to the church.

Going to the church should be the historically correct course of events.

However, it's also possible that this isn't the case. What if something happens to Xi Lei along the way, and he changes his mind and doesn't go to the church? If he foolishly goes to the church, he might go astray from the plot and die there. So, it's hard to decide whether to go or not.
