Cursed Immortality-Chapter 694 Cursed Mystic Signature (1)

In the depths of the ocean, a thunder whale was making its way toward the surface, and it appeared like a bullet cutting through water.

On top of the thunder was sitting Jacob, who was still thinking about the surreal event that took place over six days ago.

'Just what could be those hourglasses? From that damn book's subtle words, they can help 'cheat death,' and this ability originated from something extremely powerful. Could it be another Universal Godly Scripture?' Jacob could only think of this possibility since he was sure that Immortika wouldn't have phrased it like this if it wasn't something it acknowledged.

'But the question is, who were they, and are there more like them? Since they were in the Siren Hymn Temple, they might have had a relationship with the Ocean Oracle. I should've let Autarch absorb their brains before killing them; I was too hasty.

'However, it wasn't entirely my fault since I had no idea I would stumble upon something like this. Now, although my hex core has evolved into a unique rank magic core, and I'm overflowing with blood vitality after absorbing those two hourglasses and the blood vitality scattered in the water, that darn book used its chance to speak to me directly, and now I can't summon it for 30 days.

'But I can't stay in the deep ocean another since not only would the empires be curious about what happened, but if the people behind those two also came to investigate their deaths, it might be troublesome. After all, I can't take my chances against these people who might have had some sort of relationship with a Universal Godly Scripture.

'Even if this is just my speculation, I can't expose myself, so leaving the deep ocean and lying low in the Unique Plains is the right choice until I can summon Immortika again and start the longevity schema again.' Jacob mused gravely as he looked ahead.

He could feel the gravity getting lesser and after living for decades under that terrible gravity, he was feeling as if his body were becoming light as a feather. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑒𝔀𝓮𝘣𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝓵.𝒸𝑜𝘮

At this moment, Jacob's eyes suddenly shimmered with ecstasy as he flipped his hand, and a locked space ring appeared in his hand. If it had been before, he would've been frustrated since he wouldn't be able to unlock it.

However, after his hex core's evolution, he could feel the presence of his mystic signature clashing with that of this space ring. Yes, he finally got his mystic signature!

But what made Jacob uncertain was that despite the hex core becoming a unique rank magic core, he didn't awaken the element glyph. He didn't know if there was something wrong since he had used the scripture of blank to create a fake spirit glyph in his hex core or if it was just because of Immortika. He decided to ask Immoritka about it once he could summon it again.

Nonetheless, now that he has the mystic signature, he can do many things that weren't possible before. For example, the Life Substitute Doll he received as a reward for his early achievement and the title reward for Lone Hero of Life can only be used with the Mystic Signature.

This Life Substitute Doll is extremely precious because it can allow the owner to escape deathly situations by taking the place of the owner when he is on the brink of death and teleporting him a hundred miles away, and he can recover his 10% health!

After awakening his mystic signature, Jacob instantly used it on the Life Substitute Doll, and it turned into a runic tattoo just below his neckline.

Another such treasure was the Gluttony Mask, but he stopped it because he needed to quickly escape the blast area.

Now that he was finally out of the woods, he first decided to try opening these space rings, which he had received from his final two victims, who were also the owners of those two mysterious hourglasses.

Jacob followed his instincts, and as his mystic signature clashed with the mystic signature of the space ring, he tried to fight it by releasing his mana. Since the owner of the mystic signature was dead and wasn't there to resist Jacob's advance, the space ring suddenly trembled as if something shattered in it!

The next moment, Jacob could feel a faint connection with the space ring. It was a strange feeling, and it meant that Jacob was now the owner of this space ring because it now had his mystic signature!

Although he was elated, he didn't waste time. He quickly scanned the space ring to see what was inside, hoping to get some kind of clue about those two's backgrounds.

'What a filthy rich guy!' Jacob was surprised when he saw mountains of magic gems, and from their dense magic energy, he could feel they were all advanced and unique ranks!

Furthermore, this space ring was far more spacious than the one he was currently wearing. It has 1000 Cubic Meters of space, and Jacob mused that this space ring was above the Advanced Unique Rank because he knew an advanced unique rank space ring can only have around 500~600 cubic meters of space!

Other than the mountains of magic gems, he found many peculiar things, like a shelf filled with books, a pile of scrolls and weapons, a… statue that gave off a peculiar aura, a pile of space rings, and many others.

Jacob then quickly opened the other ring before further investigating its contents to see if there was something similar in the second ring as well.

The second space ring, however, was not like the previous one because it was only 550 cubic meters in diameter, and he found something strange in it.

'Why are there so many dry corpses in it? It seems like their blood vitality was drained before they died.' Jacob was astounded since he was very familiar with this kind of effect. After seeing the corpses' fishtails, he was sure they belonged to the Siren Race.

'Could this ring have belonged to the Ocean Oracle? So, she was also part of this hourglass organization? But what was she doing by sucking the sirens' vitality?'

Jacob became confused and even curious because it was simply too strange. The more he knew, the more confused he got. But one thing was clear; whatever was happening back there was far from simple!
