“So it was really this…”

The pangolin stopped when it arrived at the foot of the mountain. The path in front was closed and there was an invisible barrier preventing the pangolin from entering. Moreover, the steps were sparkling clean, rendering the pangolin’s smudge ability ineffective.

The “Reiki Vision” could not be activated either for there was no other effect than turning the entire screen a golden color. There were large throngs of people visiting the site at the bottom of the mountain and Ren Suo realized that almost all 15 layers of defense armor of the pangolin had been stepped on and destroyed by humans.

The defense armor was actually similar to “Clothes” and was an additional layer of protection over the physical body made of special energy. However, since the pangolin was able to choose “Strong Fist” in its first evolution and receive 15 layers of defense armor, the defense armor was actually not very strong even though it appeared impressive—

One layer was destroyed each time the pangolin was stepped on by people.

In the chaos of the crowd, Ren Suo heard people on the screen shouting after they stepped on the pangolin, “Who brought their dog here! Quickly carry your dog!””Wow, wow, wow, what is that hard thing crawling on the ground?”

Ren Suo had no choice but to let the pangolin continue receiving damage from being stepped on by people, and it even received minor damage by the time it was able to break out of the crowd to the edge of the forbidden area. That was the edge where people were crowding around, and the pangolin would not be stepped on. It was also not surprising at all for a smudge to be on the ground at that position.

That was also the first time that Ren Suo saw one of the world’s best sights and confirmed that such was the strongest Reiki object in Tianjing City—it might even be the strongest one in Xuan Nation.

The mountain was located in the east of Tianjing City, or perhaps it could be said that Tianjing City was built by the mountain. It was not a huge mountain, and it looked like an unwrapped salty glutinous rice dumpling. There was almost no gravel on the slopes of the mountain. It had been cleaned and maintained in a pristine condition since generations and dynasties ago. Illuminated by the golden light of the sun, the mountain appeared as clean and as smooth as white jade.

Looking up from the bottom of the steps, the light appeared to be guided by the skies to the summit of the mountain. The glimmering sunlight seemed to concentrate at the summit of the mountain miraculously due to the mountain’s shape, as if orange-colored flames were burning at its summit. It was a spectacular sight.

That was the Volcano of Legacies, the greatest wonder of the world in Xuan Nation, a result of the combination of nature and the wisdom of the workers across generations and dynasties together.

The Volcano of Legacies was an extinct volcano but had erupted numerous times in the long past. Its shape was eventually reduced to that of a regular mountain over many eruptions while the flames and lava glazed its sides. Before the Common Era, people had already discovered the uniqueness and beauty of the extinct volcano, and willingly repaired the jade-white and glass-like slopes of the mountain.

After clearing nearly all gravel and rocks off the sides of the mountain, extraordinary reflections of light occurred. Sunlight was clearly reflected numerous times on the sides of the mountain and eventually converged at the crater of the volcano, forming an illusion of flames at its summit, as if it was a miraculous sight.

The volcano was hence respected and called a miraculous mountain across the ages and dynasties. After Xuan Nation was established, it was officially named the Volcano of Legacies.

It was just that Ren Suo had never imagined that a natural landscape like that could also be a Reiki object.

After all, the entire natural landscape was too big…

It was not possible for the pangolin to remain on the mountain and absorb its Reiki, even if Ren Suo wanted to do so. The golden Reiki beam at the foot of the Volcano of Legacies that was within the forbidden area was almost solidified. Ordinary people could enter and exit the area at will, but for a half-extraordinary creature like the pangolin, it was as if a wall was blocking it.

Furthermore, the Volcano of Legacies was too clean and the pangolin would be easily spotted if it slipped in—there were tens of thousands of people there.

What should I do? Should I just give up?

Ren Suo was not one to give up so easily. Instead, he let the pangolin remain at that position for 5 minutes, when the “Reiki Vision” was activated automatically.

[You have discovered the Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation!]

[Do you wish to activate the Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation? You may activate the Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation before the stipulated time. As a reward, you may then receive specialized evolutionary abilities.]

[Caution: After activating the Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation, there will be a series of unexpected consequences.]

[Caution: After activating the Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation, you will be able to receive a ‘Legendary Evolution’.]

[Caution: The Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation can be automatically activated in the next 200 ~ 400 days.]

[Volcano of Legacies]

[Reiki content: ???]

[Time required to activate: 6 times of 12 hours each]

[City/Country: ???]

[Warding Evil: ???]

Ren Suo blinked, and naturally chose to activate the Reiki Treasure.

It was just a game anyway, what was there to be scared of? There would be dire consequences? If that’s the case… I shall just start a new savefile.

During the activation period, the pangolin had to remain in contact with the Reiki beam of the Volcano of Legacies. That was not a problem, but instead that after each activation period of 12 hours, an explosion like the one Ren Suo saw during the flag-raising ceremony earlier on in the morning would occur. When that happened, half the city would be lit in a crimson-red color, and the Reiki energy from the Volcano of Legacies would radiate across half of the city.

Ren Suo fast-forwarded the game by 12 hours, then saw the pangolin’s health dropping in the crimson-red air in the dark night due to a curse—

There was originally no “curse” mechanism in the game, but when the Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation erupted, a similar effect forcefully affected all unorthodox living creatures—the pangolin’s recovery ability was suppressed to -15 points, and it was quickly being weakened towards its death even as it stayed put without doing anything!

In the pangolin’s field of view, even without “Reiki vision”, strange arcs of red-colored light were visible in the night sky, similar to the auroras that appeared in the polar regions.

The streaks of red light encompassed an extremely huge area and covered almost the entire Tianjing City. When the pangolin ran out, many people were coming out of the houses onto the streets and taking images of the sky with their mobile phones.

After running for half an hour, the pangolin was outside the crimson-red zone. Ren Suo fast-forwarded the game to the next afternoon and it was only then that the eruption of the Volcano of Legacies ended. Thereafter, Ren Suo controlled the pangolin to sneak back into the area.

However, the nearby area surrounding the Volcano of Legacies was now blocked by colored three-meter-tall steel fences, as if surrounding a construction site.

There was a sign on the fence that read: “The Volcano of Legacies is undergoing urgent maintenance works. We seek your understanding for the inconvenience.”

The duration of the maintenance and when the site would reopen was not mentioned.

It did not take a genius to know that it was not a mere coincidence that maintenance began just the day after the pangolin had activated the Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation in the Volcano of Legacies.

It had to be that the nation’s Practitioner department of that time had detected the source of the extraordinary natural phenomenon the day before. It came from the Volcano of Legacies. As such, they had urgently locked the area down within just half a day.

Ren Suo did not dare to risk letting the pangolin into the area. The smudge camouflage was not capable of doing anything and everything. If there were infrared thermosensors installed inside, the pangolin would be easily spotted.

The game was autosaving, and while the pangolin could deal with ordinary people, it would not be possible to win in a fight against the military or Practitioners. Based on the current ability of the pangolin, Ren Suo would then have no choice but to restart the game.

Since he could not clear the stage, he naturally had to return and level up before trying again. There were countless Reiki objects and museums in Tianjing City. Ren Suo found a museum with a slightly smaller Reiki beam and controlled the pangolin to enter.

Ren Suo was not very worried whether other people would find out about the Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation, since the game had already made it clear that “You may activate the Reiki Treasure of Xuan Nation before the stipulated time. As a reward, you may then receive specialized evolutionary abilities”, which seemed like a reward only the game character was entitled to.

Furthermore, even if it were discovered by other people, could the pangolin stop them from activating it with his small arm?

Nonetheless, security was tight inside the Tianjing Museum. Expensive exhibits were also separated a distance away by a glass panel, of course. Unless Ren Suo wanted the pangolin to be finished and cooked as a dish, there was no way the pangolin could break the glass and come into contact with the exhibits, and naturally, it could not absorb its Reiki.

Ren Suo searched for a while in real life and found a decent target.

Within the Imperial College Museum, there was a congregation of tombstones comprising 189 large stone tablets, each engraved with Confucian classics. They were not highly protected, and even if it were, it would not be behind a glass panel. Not many people visited the museum usually either, so the pangolin would not be discovered easily, disguised as a smudge on the ground.

The Reiki beam inside the museum was much smaller than other museums, but while some of the stone tablets had “scarce” Reiki content, there were some with “little” Reiki content. There were even a few stone tablets with “moderate” Reiki content. After a short span of one day accumulating the Reiki, the pangolin absorbed the Reiki of the 65 stone tablets with the most Reiki content and underwent 4 evolutions!

Of the 4 evolutions, the most important one was naturally the first, with the “Super-evolution” as a result of the maxed out attribute!
