Cursed Immortality-Chapter 788 New Discoveries!

The Earth Guardian's strength was immense, and Jacob continued to endure as he studied its fighting style and how it used its aura. He had never fought someone with this kind of control over its aura at such a high level.

Furthermore, the Earth Guardian never showed any sign of Soul Force, which made things much easier for Jacob because no matter what trick the Earth Guardian tried, it couldn't scratch his skeleton.

All Jacob needed to avoid was the battle axes attacks, and they endured some pain. As the battle dragged longer and longer, the Earth Guardian seemed to have endless aura and stamina.

However, the Earth Guardian's opponent was also a monster with endless endurance. As long as Jacob wasn't forced to use his Soul Force, his physical stamina seemed to be limitless—all because of the cursed blood!

Moreover, Jacob had already noticed that he could turn his cursed blood into his soul force if he wanted to, but he tried to save it for a more dangerous situation and even hoped he wouldn't use it at all.

The Earth Guardian continued bombarding Jacob with all kinds of aura attacks and physical attacks. Its physical attacks were capable of shattering stone with a single blow, and it could manipulate the surrounding earth, creating walls, spikes, and other obstacles with aura.

But what fascinated Jacob was that the Earth Guardian wasn't doing all this with spells at all; instead, it was doing it with just aura. It scatters its aura around the chamber and turns it into anything, especially the aura explosions.

With his Eyes of Judge, Jacob analyzed every attack in detail, and as time passed, he became more proficient in it. It was a strange feeling, as he had never done anything like this before. At this moment, he realized that his Eyes of Judge could also see the hidden secrets of spells and magic.

The endurance battle became an experiment for him. Furthermore, Jacob also discovered why his slumber hex was missed on the Earth Guardian. It was because the Earth Guardian didn't have any consciousness, or more accurately, didn't have any soul. It was like a puppet, and this was also the reason it didn't have any soul force.

But then Jacob soon realized that in addition to the Slumber Hex, the No Agility Hex and Powerless Hex instantly worked on the Earth Guardian!

Jacob had never used these two hexes before because the slumber hex was enough to do the job. Yet now, he was realizing that they were different and more complex than he had imagined.

He concluded that the Slumber Hex was exclusive to souls, while the No Agility Hex and Powerless Hex were physical hexes, and they could work on soulless beings like puppets!

This was a huge discovery and something he had overlooked because of how powerful the Slumber Hex was. Finally, the Soul Tether Hex was also soul-related.

Once he realized this, Jacob knew that he had been so focused on progressing in the cursed immortality that he had ignored everything else. So, he was determined to analyze his abilities thoroughly once he got out of there.

After all, now that he had a long lifespan and could replenish it with Nyx's help, he would use some of it to reorganize his skills and abilities while also starting the comprehension of the Immortal Chapter again.

Moreover, Jacob acknowledged that he had become too dependable on his weapons. Now that he realized that magic could achieve the same kind of destruction, he decided to focus on his strength. Although the weapons were good, they were expendable. In the end, his personal strength matters the most!

He was no longer a human with a limited lifespan, so he needed to stop thinking and acting like one.

Anyhow, once the Guardian was hit by the No Agility Hex and Powerless Hex, its speed and power rank directly decreased to the Beyond Unique Rank. So, no matter how it attacked, it was like a child hitting a boulder, and Jacob could finally relax and no longer bother to dodge the Earth Guardian and focus on recovering his soul force.

Nonetheless, the Earth Guardian never stopped attacking Jacob and continued like a mindless machine, which gave Jacob more time to analyze its aura manipulation in depth.

Hours passed, then days, as the strange fifth-level trial of the tower continued. The bizarre scene of a skeleton sitting cross-legged while a massive statue continued to pummel him to no avail continued to play out. The trial would require anyone to defeat the guardian. They would need to use all of their skills and abilities while dodging the guardian's relentless, mighty attacks, exploiting its weaknesses, and turning into a resting area for Jacob.

At this moment, Jacob's hollow eyes of Jacob suddenly lit up with flames as he stood up while the battle axes landed on top of his skull before they instantly retracted without leaving any scratch.

"I'm fully recovered!" Jacob mumbled as he looked towards the giant Earth Guardian, who was preparing for another attack while it was still under his two hexes.

"I've already learned your aura manipulation and the pattern of your attacks. As a token of my appreciation, I'll put you out of your misery!"

The next moment, greed's flaming aura started to spread from Jacob's feet and envelope the Earth Guardian's entire body, instantly restraining the Earth Guardian's movement like a bug caught up in a spider web.

Jacob's eyes flickered, and the next moment, the fire aura around the Earth Guardian instantly ignited, causing a massive explosion filled with high temperature.

But Jacob remained unmoved as he watched the dust stele. The Earth Guardian was nowhere to be seen; his fire aura had completely pulverized it!

Furthermore, the aura explosion caused by the fire aura was even more substantial than the aura explosion caused by the earth aura of Earth Guardian, despite Jacob's fire core still at the peak of unique rank!

Moreover, despite the power rank of the Earth Guardian plummeting by three tiers because of the Powerless Hex, its body was almost at Jacob's current body level, so it should be impossible to do anything to the Earth Guardian.

But Jacob achieved this because he had used the special soul force filed with the aura explosion, taking it a step further. The result was nothing but disastrous for the Earth Guardian or any of Jacob's future enemies!

Jacob had unknowingly learned a distinctive concept of Fable Legendary Rank at its initial stage, Soul Aura/Spirit Fusion!
