“So all this talk is to get me to join the Ancient Snake Society?”

Su Lu fell silent for a moment, looking at Elder Bukadi at the head of the table.

“Our lord is the beginning and end of everything… He is about to awaken, rule the world, and generously share the secrets of becoming a god.”

Bukadi said prophetically, “The true believers will achieve immortality with Him.”

“And if I refuse?”

Su Lu suddenly laughed, “Does that mean war?”

“No… I will still provide you with the profession information of [Dream Master],” Bukadi smirked mysteriously.

“Why?”

Su Lu was filled with strong confusion and apprehension.

The other was a fourth-level occupational person, and this was their home field, the strength that could be exerted was comparable to ‘half-a-legend’. Su Lu’s demonstrated power alone was not enough to make Bukadi submit.

“Because… it is ‘The guidance of Divination’.”

Bukadi waved his hand, and the entire setting instantly shattered.

In front of Su Lu emerged an entirely different memory scene – one belonging to Bukadi.

He looked much younger than before and was guided by an old man in a black robe into a secret room, “Bukadi, you have passed the test, we will allow you to choose the profession path of [Spirit Medium]. Remember… although the path of [Spirit Medium] has two branches, [Dream Master] is the orthodox! Unfortunately… it lacks the other complementary profession, so it cannot produce a ‘legend’. But in today’s age, that’s not so important.”

Bukadi looked excited, gazing at the two stone pillars inside the secret room.

This was the complete lineage of [Mysterious Master] and [Dream Master] from level one to four.

He first approached the obsidian pillar of [Dream Master], caressing the patterns and designs on it, while trying hard to memorize each symbol.

As his palm touched the obsidian, a faint light appeared on the stone pillar, starting from the bottom and spreading upwards until it stopped in the middle.

“It’s unfortunate… your affinity for the Spirit World is insufficient. If you choose the lineage of [Dream Master], it will be difficult for you to break through to the fourth level in the future…”

A voice sighed.

A look of disappointment appeared on Bukadi’s face as he turned to look at the other pillar.

That was his only choice!

On the other hand, Su Lu was standing in front of the [Dream Master]’s pillar, his eyes gleaming, greedily memorizing the information.

[Spirit Medium] —— [Mystical Scholar] —— [Odd Technician]

The first three inheritances were exactly the same as what he had received. He quickly skimmed through them and looked at the top.

There, countless mysterious and esoteric symbols formed various abstract patterns that made one dizzy.

But from the perspective of [Odd Technician], that was the professional information of [Dream Master]!

‘This method of inheritance… seems to be engraved into my memory?’

‘Is this the peculiarity of [Spirit Medium]?’

The moment the object of arduous pursuit suddenly appeared before him, even with Su Lu’s steadiness, he could not help but be slightly astonished.

At that moment, something unexpected happened!

The young Bukadi turned around, his face revealing a bizarre smile and becoming distorted and crazy. What was originally an impression in his memory was now completely fused with the main consciousness.

“I told you… you will join us and become a devout follower of our lord!”

With a tone of certainty, Bukadi moved to the end of the room and pressed both hands on the wall.

Thud!

The stone wall automatically receded, as if some terrifying existence was about to reveal its true form.

A terrible breath spread, immobilizing Su Lu’s Spiritual Body.

It was supreme! It was almighty! It was a truly great existence!

Even a wisp of its aura was enough to shatter everything, or make lowly beings tremble, fear, and surrender!

It… does not belong to this world!

In the memory of a long-term believer, stirred by a residual breath, the ancient darkness spreading behind the stone wall is rolling, seemingly about to reveal an unsolvable terror!

Hiss! Hiss!

It was as if Su Lu heard countless mutters from the void, amidst the snake-like hissing sounds, his hair stood on end, the veins under his skin were wrighing like worms, and countless little mice were scurrying around.

‘He indeed…plans to use the ancient giant snake pit in my memory to trap me!’

With a calm face, Su Lu thought of this as a possible danger: ‘But…even the followers of the giant snake, cannot possibly behold the real face of the true god, the outcome is undoubtedly tragic. They must have lost their human form and rationality. Also…during the Twilight of the Gods, no divine has descended…’

‘Unless…he intends to attract the remnant breath similar to a demon within Owen Mansion, use it to materialize in my memory, and perish together with me, or rather, to be influenced by the demon together. Maybe he thinks he is a believer and will be treated preferentially?’

‘So…everything is a trap, the legacy of Guy and the [Dream Master] is a bait… is he planning to use the power of the demon, or the ancient giant snake, to completely transform me?’

Even if the opponent is the fourth-tier [Mysterious Master], and this is Elder Bukadi’s home court, Su Lu could have chosen to retreat at any time.

But now, he voluntarily entered the depths of the opponent’s memory.

And Bukadi is about to manifest the true face of a terrifying existence.

At this moment, Su Lu, as a third-tier [Odd Technician], can’t escape at all!

This is the trap that the opponent planned!

“It’s a pity…”

Su Lu glanced at his attribute panel and smiled:

[Ding! Detected fourth-tier profession information – Dream Master! The precondition for taking office requires a third-tier profession: Magician, Spirit 10.0, Constitution 5.0, Soul Trance LV6!… The condition is not met! Unable to take office!]

If it were a normal person or even an occupation holder, they would not be able to record the inheritance of a fourth-tier profession in such a short period of time.

But the attribute panel is different, it has recorded the complete information, and it won’t need to be queried again in the future. As long as the conditions are met, and there are enough experience points, one can directly level up!

“Evil Spirit Possession!”

A silver ‘Sealing Card’ emerged from the light circulating in his right hand,

The knight on the card lets out an angry roar, burns with intense black flames, merges with Su Lu, and suppresses all strange happenings!

While donning the black cloak, Su Lu finally could move!

He closed his eyes without actually glimpsing the ‘horror’ behind the darkness, his figure disappeared in an instant!

—’Spirit World Traversal’!

His spirit immediately traversed to the Dream Spirit World, took one step and plummeted swiftly.

When he appeared again, he was back at his physical body, soul returning to body, Evil Spirit Knight covering his physical body, and Spirit World Traversal took place again.

The void twisted, spreading countless lines to form a portal.

Su Lu walked out of the portal, the black robe and flames on his body instantly receded, sealed by a silver card.

Crack!

A third black crack appeared on the top of the card.

“That’s the last one, it’s finished.”

Su Lu put the Sealing Card into the Greedy Gloves, muttering to himself.

If he recklessly unseals it next time, there is only one outcome, which is the real Evil Spirit Knight breaking out of the seal! It will kill him or even devour him.

“Unless I become a [Wandering Mage], I can completely suppress the power of the Evil Spirit Knight.”

“Fortunately this time I resolved it quickly, the impact on my body and soul isn’t significant… The key is that I didn’t see the true horror behind the darkness, otherwise I might have become a monster that crazily worships the ancient snake.”

Su Lu looked at the surrounding scenery, his expression becoming complicated.

Under the moonlight, what he saw was the ruins next to a small lake.

There should have been a two-story wooden house here, but it was burned down by a fire.

This is the countryside of Gusta State, the hometown of his body, where he lived during his childhood!
