Cursed Immortality

Chapter 26 Cursed Immortality! (2)

?Jacob suddenly opened his eyes in bewilderment as he looked around and saw himself in black liquid, and Pig Face, broad, ripped back, could vaguely be seen.

'Was it a dream?' Jacob thought, but he soon shook his head since it was too vivid for a simple dream and confirmed it since it was straightforward.

He looked at the button panel, which was inside the glass cell's top corner, and pressed the button, making the black liquid sink.

'This cell is probably more advanced than the other one, or it's just that the other cell is for prisoners or something,' Jacob mused as he saw his vision becoming clearer.

He saw his body and smiled bitterly. There wasn't any chance, except the small hole in his chest was gone entirely, and he didn't feel any pain in his heart.

'I should be that black liquid, I guess.' Jacob nodded in satisfaction before his eyes landed on the pendant, and he was astonished when he saw the white infinity symbol right in the center of the snake circle.

'Infinity Pendant, huh.' Jacob touched the white infinity symbol, which was as smooth as jade and spinnable. There was nothing extraordinary about it except its new appearance. No one would believe it if Jacob said it was a treasure.

The glass cell slid open at this moment, and Jacob came out with a hint of excitement on his bony face.

"You can go back and use the blue liquid now." He first excused Pig Head before he got closer to the table.

Jacob looked at Decker's journal and placed his hand on it before he thought of storing the book inside the infinity pendant, and the book instantly vanished!

Jacob nearly laughed out loud when he saw this was really a storage treasure that he had read about in all those fantasies, which also confirmed that it wasn't a dream.

He quickly calmed himself down and again thought of taking the journal out before it emerged in Jacob's hand again!

After trying a few more times and getting the hang of it, Jacob stopped playing with the infinity pendant.

'This storage space is too little, only one cubic meter, but I guess I have to do with it now.' Jacob thought before he stored Decker's journal inside the infinity pendant again and moved toward the hidden compartment.

He removed the gray cloth in which cursed immortality's incarnation was wrapped and saw palm size beast skin. He didn't forget Cursed Immortality's last advice. Furthermore, he saw some red letters which, according to Decker's journal, spell 'Cursed Immortality' as well.

'Didn't that book say no one knows its name, but then why did its name engrave on this beast's skin, and how is it useful to me?' Jacob couldn't help but think of this point as he found nothing special about this beast's skin or red letters.

'According to that book's explanation, it was buried by the last immortal mark bearer, which was a 'lizard' this means this book can be inherited by any kind of life form as long as they passed those vicious tests, not just humans, and I'm currently in a world filled with monsters.

'But is it really as simple as it told me it is? I can't completely take that book's words for truth. It can read my mind, but I can't, but since it still told the truth about the infinity pendant, I guess I have no choice but to believe it. Let's try summoning it now.'

Jacob also thought before he stored that beast's skin in the infinity pendant. He also stored that Bloodline Scanning Scale inside the pendant since it was essential to him for measuring his lifespan.

Jacob sat down on the only chair in the room before he took a deep breath and thought, 'Cursed Immortality!'

Suddenly, a white book appeared in front of Jacob, floating in the air.

It was slightly glowing in a black hue; its cover size was 9 X 12 and an inch thick. There wasn't any clue about its spine or pages. It was just like a slate. In the center of it were beautiful crimson words that Jacob could clearly understand despite never having seen them before. Those crimson words spell 'Cursed Immortality.' Nothing else was on the cover.

Jacob was astonished at seeing the floating slate in front of his chest. He couldn't help but try to touch it, and he could and felt this book's jade smooth cold cover.

Jacob tried to flip the slate to see the other side, but it turned like a book cover before revealing a white page in thin air. There were crimson words written on it as well. As for the cover, it vanished into the other side in the air.

'So, that's what it means when it said it was in its true form now. Does this mean this book is extremely thick that I can't fit in this room?' Jacob wondered in astonishment. 'Truly magical, really. I don't see and feel all this with my eyes and hands. I wouldn't believe it's real. But it still made me worry about just how thick this book is. Won't I die before I complete it and archive immortality!?'

Jacob wasn't swayed by just befits. His eyes were still on the facts.

He sighed before reading the very first page, which was the same size as its cover.

"Cursed Immortality: Cursed Immortal Physique (Nine Phases)

"Current Phase: First Phase

"First Phase: Body Transformation

"Stages of Body Transformation: Three

"First Stage: Cursed Heart Emergence

"Second Stage: Compete First Stage

"Third Stage: Compete Second Stage

"Inheritor (Jacob Steve) Current Stage: 10% of First Stage"

Jacob's eyes narrowed when he saw the very first page, which revealed little information with much mystery.

'Why is there cursed everywhere?" Jacob finally paid attention to the word cursed, even though this book's name was Cursed Immortality.

Before in his excitement, he paid little attention to it, but now that he did, he felt this book was defiantly now simple, and it didn't reveal everything clearly about itself!
