Recalling the thrilling experience at Death Report Ridge, Xu Shu still feels a bit scared and suspicious.

He immediately took a deep breath and poured his will entirely into the Tai Chu scroll entrance.

Amidst familiar and mysterious mist rising, his consciousness was instantly elevated, manifesting chaos in the infinite heights of void:

[Legendary Mode]——[Continuing the Legend]

[Connecting to the Dao Mark, unfolding selectable legend list for you...]

[Detection complete, current selectable Dao Marks: 1. Wang Teng (Three-source); 2. Arthur (Two-source)]

[Tip: Three-source Dao Mark can only consume three connections; Two-source Dao Mark can consume two or three connections, with a certain chance of improving reward quality if consumption exceeds the source number.]

[Please select the Dao Mark——]

"Eh?"

Seeing the prompt, Xu Shu’s expression was slightly surprised.

In continuing the legend, consuming more connections for a Dao Mark can improve reward quality?

This was really something unknown before, always thinking the Two-source Dao Mark could only be opened twice.

But that makes sense, after all, until now, Xu Shu’s second Dao Mark "Arthur" was just obtained in the ruins.

And it’s not even complete, a substantial part is missing, needing other parts to complete.

Initially, Xu Shu planned to choose "Wang Teng", partly to continue grinding the Warrior’s Mysterious Chapter for future preparations, and partly to check the previous situation.

But now Arthur’s situation makes him hesitated and curious.

Improved reward, isn’t that the triple draw?

But the triple draw legend supposedly gives the Mysterious Chapter as a reward?

Doesn’t this conflict with the "altar" reward corresponding to Arthur as a Two-source Dao Mark?

If combined, what will it be? Will it be super doubled?

After a moment of thought, Xu Shu, itching with curiosity, changed his mind to try the latter.

Anyway, Little King Kong’s place can be probed tomorrow, there’s no rush now, it’s a good time to see what Little Aunt is doing.

After being apart for so long, daring to cut off contact alone, needs some discipline!

With this thought, he no longer hesitated and immediately chose ’Arthur’, the scene changed naturally.

[You chose the Dao Mark: Arthur (Two-source)]

[You consumed three connections, exceeding the Dao Mark’s source number, your reward quality for this time will be correspondingly enhanced.]

[Successfully connected to the Dao Mark]

[Detected your fate: Death-like Wind (Excellent), Bridging the Gap (Superb)]

[You, Arthur, Legendary Hunter King, Three House Slaves, the Death God’s Favored who carelessly lost the mother!]

[Today, the great being returns to the Dao Mark, breaking through layers of historical fog to continue the legend...]

[New Calendar Year 19, January 2nd afternoon, you were awakened from the seal within the Death Report Ridge Church by night, and with the great being’s (yourself) help, successfully escaped from the Dark Mother Goddess disguised as the Death God’s Right Hand, leaving the church later at nightfall.]

[On the night of January 2nd, you crossed the ’Light and Dark Boundary’, all the way to the research institute underground, crossing the space rift, heading to the Duel Arena Secret Realm.]

"Arthur awakened from the seal in the church, this is about me reclaiming Arthur from the Mother Goddess."

"Light and Dark Boundary... seems to be the real name for the area outside the Death Report Ridge Church."

At the start of this [Continuing the Legend], Xu Shu knew he had chosen correctly.

Turns out, within the church that day, there were hidden secrets.

——Because Xu Shu’s perspective is currently "Arthur", he can only see "Xu Shu quickly running through Death Report Ridge carrying me".

Also, this is the ’previous summary part’, so he can’t perform any actions, only watch the plot.

Of course, he can secretly criticize this terrifying and strange Evil God within his heart.

Turns out that Death God’s Right Hand was the Mother Goddess’s disguise, no wonder her eyeballs were hidden inside.

What is her purpose? In terms of power and position, she seems several levels above Death God Althias...

Can’t figure it out, but it sounds so evil, maybe something horrible happened back then!

Thinking, Xu Shu suddenly noticed something odd.

This part mentions "leaving Mother Goddess Church on the night of the 2nd".

But that’s not right, didn’t I enter the Mother Goddess Church after nightfall for refuge and leave at dawn?

Why is it described the opposite here?

Uh... speaking of which, if related to the outside real-world time, it seems true, turns out the day and night at Death Report Ridge are reversed, opposite to the real world.

And during [Continuing the Legend], the Tai Chu scroll uses the real-world time marker, which explains this?

Xu Shu pondered the possibility.

He didn’t dwell on this much because the prequel quickly reached the point where he entered the underground shelter, continuing the legendary tale:

[You enter the Duel Arena, per the secret realm rules, you need to participate in the thrilling leaderboard segment.]

[The dweller here, a female deity’s incarnation "Neris", sensed the remaining divine aura on you.]

[She favors it highly, personally naming you to join the duel, but as you only have part of a spiritual body, you can’t do anything.]

[But don’t despair, the great being Xu Shu is with you, as you team up with yourself to score sixty points, successfully claiming the Duel Arena crown, receiving her reward, it truly was a splendid battle!]
