I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World

Chapter 746: Chapter 392: Fate Dangling the Rod

“According to the information I foresaw earlier, my current incense fire aspiration force is not enough to perform the Incense Prayer Technique. It may lead to unknown consequences and distorted wishes.”

“However, if I’m lucky, and my fortune works, there is a chance I can successfully perform it.”

Using a foreknowledge opportunity, the predicted information jumps on the Panel.

[You wish to obtain an Ancient Treasure that establishes a cause and effect connection with an existence in another spacetime when you receive your next treasure.]

[You attempt to perform the Incense Prayer Technique to achieve this goal, and your incense fire aspiration force is consumed.]

[Unfortunately, your incense fire aspiration force is insufficient. The Incense Prayer Technique is cast but distorted, leading to unknown consequences.]

[In one minute, you die.]

Amidst a breath, the first prediction ends – with failure!

Su Nan remains expressionless, having been prepared for such a scenario.

Without immediately making another prediction, he waits for a moment before starting his second attempt.

Luck does not favor him this time either, and he fails again.

Then comes the third and fourth attempts.

Only after more than ten minutes does something exciting finally happen.

[Your incense fire aspiration force is insufficient, and the Incense Prayer Technique is distorted, leading to unknown consequences.]

[At the critical moment, your luck comes into play, restoring the distorted wish and avoiding any unknown consequences.]

His luck finally works again!

Without any hesitation, Su Nan immediately starts casting.

Connecting with heaven and earth, he softly prays:

“I pray that the next Ancient Treasure I obtain has the ability to establish cause and effect with an existence in another spacetime.”

As the words settle down, all his incense fire aspiration force vanishes, as though it was never there.

Somewhere unseen, it seems like something unknown has happened. Suddenly, it feels like a great terror is about to descend, creating a tremendous sense of dread, which makes him shudder involuntarily.

The sensation appears as quickly as it fades.

When all the abnormalities dissipate, he finally exhales.

Success!

“Now is the time to witness a miracle.”

Feeling somewhat excited, he gazes at the task Panel, where the Cave Immortal Elder’s Inheritance mission lies. A prompt then pops up.

[Congratulations on completing the third part of the Main Quest “Cave Immortal Elder’s Inheritance.” Do you wish to claim your reward immediately?]

“Claim!”

[Congratulations, you have obtained a Mortal-Level Demon Sutra]

[Congratulations, you have obtained a Mortal-Level Bloodline]

[Congratulations, 30 Demon Points]

Another 30 Demon Points are credited, bringing his available Demon Points to 360.

However, at this point, the prompts that should continue do not appear.

“What’s going on?”

Su Nan frowns, completely caught off guard by this situation.

It is evident that this outcome is the result of his Incense Prayer Technique’s influence on the mission rewards!

“Is it over? Where is my Ancient Treasure? What about my reward?”

Without time to ponder further, he checks his Personal Space immediately.

Unfortunately, other than the additional Mortal-Level Bloodline and Demon Sutra, there are no new items in his Personal Space.

At this point, Su Nan’s face turns dark as his previously high expectations come crashing down.

He consumed all his luck for this mission reward, yet now it has left him with no Ancient Treasure, further depleting his luck. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

What is this?

Getting paid but not working?

If it was just these losses, he could accept it. Unfortunately, without an Ancient Treasure capable of establishing cause and effect, he has no way of resolving tomorrow’s crisis.

“Do I really have to give up reality?” he mutters gloomily.

Of course, he has remedies.

Since the Incense Prayer Technique has taken effect and rewards from the game are problematic, perhaps he can find other ways to obtain Ancient Treasures immediately.

However, Ancient Treasures are not easily available. Where could he find one in such a short time?

Moreover, this is not the worst possible outcome.

Now that he thinks about it, Su Nan realizes how reckless his decision was.

“My wish was based on the premise that I could obtain an Ancient Treasure through mission rewards.”

“But if this premise is gone, then my wish brings me no benefits and instead restricts me.”

He cannot help but think of the worst possible outcome.

If even the rewards from missions are affected and cannot be given to him, it means he might not receive any Ancient Treasures until he receives one capable of establishing cause and effect!

The lack of game rewards right now is evidence!

With this thought, Su Nan’s face takes on an extremely grim expression.

If that is true, he has dug his own grave, and a very deep one at that! He might not even receive rewards for future missions involving Ancient Treasures!

Su Nan stares intently at the Panel, hoping for a miracle.

Time passes without any change on the Panel.

Feeling disheartened, he sighs.

However, at that moment, a miracle finally occurs.

A long-awaited prompt finally pops up on the Panel:

[Congratulations, you have obtained an Ancient Treasure]

Seeing these few words, Su Nan is overjoyed.

He has overthought, and the Incense Prayer Technique did not prevent the game from granting rewards. It only caused unknown effects on the game rewards, delaying their issuance.

Taking a deep breath to suppress his excitement, he opens his Personal Space and retrieves the rewarded Ancient Treasure.
