Chapter 717: Epiphany Card
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Epiphany Card: Gives the user a chance for an epiphany.
“Remarks: Consumable, can only be used once. The effective period and effect depend on the user’s credentials and talents.”
Looking at the Epiphany Card he had on hand, Lin Huang seemed disconcerted. He could only get three of such cards in the next two years and one of what he had had already been used. However, as he thought about the fact that it was redeemable in the future, he felt relieved.
No matter what, it was definitely worth inheriting the True God’s memory by using one or two Epiphany Cards.
Without hesitation, Lin Huang immediately crushed the Epiphany Card that he had.
The card transformed into a bright, golden glow and merged in between Lin Huang’s eyebrows. However, Wu Mo did not notice that.
As soon as the Epiphany Card became effective, Lin Huang felt like his brain had detached from his body as his thoughts were much clearer than ever before. It seemed like the mist had cleared away, and the world was incredibly clear now.
Whatever that he could not see clearly in the past was now all revealed.
Even the runes on the cliff no longer looked like simplified runes. Instead, they looked like numbers. The rune lines that befuddled Lin Huang had become simple calculations. Lin Huang was able to grasp the meaning in an instant.
As he looked at the cliff again, Lin Huang managed to memorize all the intricate runes in one glance. He could even understand the constitutive principles and the constructive process of the runes perfectly well.
The impact of the Epiphany Card was beyond Lin Huang’s expectations.
Soon, a day passed, and the effect of the Epiphany Card still remained. With the help of the Epiphany Card, Lin Huang managed to memorize more than 600,000 out of 1,080,000 of the runes. He was catching up with Bloody’s progress.
Despite Wu Mo not finding out that Lin Huang actually used the Epiphany Card, she realized that Lin Huang had entered the state of experiencing an epiphany. She thought that Lin Huang was lucky because she clearly knew that although Lin Huang was not weak in Sorcerer Dao, he was not a pro either. He had solely relied on Bloody to pass through the Sorcerer Goddess Tower. She did not have faith that he was capable of inheriting the Sorcerer Goddess’s memory. She was just giving him a chance to try his luck. However, she never expected that Lin Huang would enter the state of epiphany at the last minute.
The effect of the Epiphany Card lasted until the afternoon of the next day. It no longer became effective right after Lin Huang had completely memorized the 1,080,000 runes.
Bloody had not finished memorizing the runes by the time Lin Huang was done.
“You’re kind of lucky to be able to experience an epiphany at the very last minute,” Wu Mo whispered.
“Yes, I am.” Lin Huang nodded as he knew that she would not be able to see Xiao Hei’s card and had mistakenly thought that he had an epiphany simply by luck.
“The last round of the assessment isn’t as simple as merely memorizing the runes.” Wu Mo remained calm. Apparently, she did not think that Lin Huang would be able to get through the last round of the assessment.
“It’s fine. I’m confident enough to accept the challenge.” After memorizing all the runes, Lin Huang was positive.
“Are you sure?” Wu Mo turned back and looked at Lin Huang when she heard what he just said. She smiled wryly.
“Yes, of course, I am. I’ve nothing to lose,” Lin Huang answered optimistically, “Of course, I’ll be happy if I’m able to get it, but it’s within my expectations if I fail to do so.”
“It means you’re not really that confident though.” Wu Mo pouted.
“My confidence in accepting the challenge doesn’t mean that I’ll be able to go through it,” Lin Huang told her the truth with a smile.
“So, are you ready to accept the next challenge?” Wu Mo asked, raising her brows.
“Wait a minute so that Bloody can get its stuff done,” Lin Huang suggested. “I want to recall what I’ve just memorized as well.”
“Alright, then let’s wait.” Wu Mo nodded and agreed with him.
Bloody was still memorizing the contents on the cliff while Lin Huang was sitting down at somewhere not far away from it with his legs crossed. Soon, he closed his eyes and started recalling what he had just memorized.
After recalling the runes that he had just memorized twice, Lin Huang then slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing that Bloody was still busy, he did not interrupt it and just waited patiently.
“You’re rather kind to your pet monster,” Wu Mo commented, seeing that he had nothing to do.
“Bloody has helped me a lot in the past. It’s the most intelligent pet monster among all the pet monsters I have.” Bloody was indeed the most reliable companion to Lin Huang.
“Is it called Bloody? But I thought it’s purple in color?” Wu Mo wanted to ask if he was color blind, but she did not. Instead, she cocked her head at Lin Huang with a strange expression.
“It was originally red in color. However, it looked like this after going through its mutation. I’m used to addressing it this way that’s why I didn’t bother to change,” Lin Huang explained.
“Oh, I see. This at least explains that you aren’t color blind.”
Lin Huang was speechless.
Both of them remained quiet for a while. Lin Huang then asked, “Can you transform back to your real body with the remaining consciousness that you have?”
“Theoretically, it could work, but it’s difficult to do so,” Wu Mo took a glance at Lin Huang and said after keeping quiet for a long while. “To be honest, I don’t hold out much hope.”
“Since it’s going to work theoretically, there’s still a glimmer of hope. How can I help you? Do let me know if there’s anything that I can do for you,” Lin Huang offered.
“Let’s just forget about it since you’re only on this combat level. You might be able to help if you’re a True God.” Wu Mo laughed. “I don’t know when you’re becoming a True God!”
“Instead of staying here, why not give it a try? Leave together with me as soon as everything that happens here ends. Let’s look for a way so that you can transform back to your real body,” Lin Huang suggested.
“If you want to bring me along, let’s talk about it later after you’ve inherited my memory, without which, I won’t leave.” Wu Mo kept quiet for a while before saying, “Another thing that I’ll have to clarify is that if I were to leave the Sorcerer Goddess’s Shrine, I could only stay in the droplet of the True God’s blood. I’ll be asleep, and I won’t be able to help you out.”
“Even if you aren’t asleep, I don’t think that there’s anything that you can help me in your current state.” Lin Huang laughed, shaking his head. “As for inheriting your memory, I’ll try my best to do so. Please don’t forget me when you’re able to recover to your original state in the near future.”
“Alright.” Wu Mo smiled.
As time passed, it was already late at night. At midnight, when the deadline was near, Bloody had finally completed memorizing everything on the cliff.
After recalling Bloody, Lin Huang then looked towards Wu Mo. “Let’s begin now.”
