When Gu Nan returned to Star Realm, the messages from the Evil God Temple gradually emerged.

Despite some unexpected developments, overall, Gu Nan was satisfied with this mission to Protect the White Dew Goddess. Not only did he successfully obtain the reward, but he even met a reliable fellow he can cooperate with.

Thats right. Although Lu Zhanyus way of handling matters wasnt proper, and although she was even willing to sell out teammates to monopolize the rewards, Gu Nan doesnt mind!

To be perfectly honest, he had seen even more immoral and outrageous things inside the game in his past life. It could be said that the vast majority of Evil God Cultivation players didnt have any kind of three views. This kind of thing was simply too common an occurrence.

If the players in a dungeon were truly cooperating sincerely, then either there was no benefit from selling out their teammates, or the mission was indeed so difficult that it couldnt be cleared if they were missing even a single person.

As for whether or not Lu Zhanyu will sell him out in the future Gu Nan wasnt afraid of that. Hed always been on his guard against everyone around him, so being vigilant against one more person wasnt such a big deal.

But the most important thing was he was about to advance to Tier 3 soon. Would he still fear Lu Zhanyus betrayal once he reaches Tier 3?

After receiving the rewards from this mission, Gu Nan already held 1,010 points and an Evil Value of 51, which just happened to meet the advancement requirements!

As his consciousness entered the Evil God Temple, Gu Nan sat quietly on the Evil Gods throne for a while. He gradually calmed his mood, then issued the command.

>Advance Tier

Exchanged item: Evil God Advancement. The player is currently a Tier 2 Evil God. Advancement requires 1,000 points and an Evil Value threshold of 50

Requirements met. Beginning advancement

The player is about to become a Tier 3 Evil God. Please select the core skill

>Shadow

Naturally, Gu Nan chose the shadow route that he was most familiar with in his previous life.

Shadowor more precisely, the law of shadowwas one of the highest-ranked laws in the game. It was the flip side to the law of light and was also considered top-quality among all the core skills out there.

Of course, the higher the skills rank, the higher the requirements to control it, but a top player like Gu Nan certainly wasnt worried about this.

As an inexplicable force entered his body, Gu Nan seemed to be back in the endless void, while darkness was approaching from afar and swallowing up the entire night sky little by little.

Is this the power of shadow? Endless insights directly poured into Gu Nans brain, making him feel a splitting headache for a moment.

After all, reality was not a game. The body could be strengthened, but when Gu Nan began to enter Prodigious Realm himself, it was impossible for him to master the so-called innate ability without any foundation.

Unless he fully comprehended these insights and enlightenment, his power wouldnt be able to keep up with his cultivation realm.

Of course, this wasnt hard for Gu Nan.

For a high-end player like him, his comprehension was already top-tier to begin with, and his understanding of shadow was also far beyond that of ordinary peoplehe knew every single usage of the power of shadow like the back of his hand, so all he lacked was the theory behind the law of shadow.

And those insights from the Evil God Temple were there precisely to help him comprehend this law.

After this, even without the existence of the Evil God Temple, Gu Nan would still be able to comprehend the law of shadow on his own.

Gu Nan stood alone in the center of the empty palace, and the pitch-black shadow gradually spread out from underneath his feet until the whole palace was covered by it.

But at a certain moment, the shadows rate of expansion suddenly slowed.

In Gu Nans eyes, it seemed that some faraway force inexplicably descended upon him and tried to stop his advancement.

However, this force was too weak and disappeared in the blink of an eye as soon as it was washed away by the law of shadow, which was one of the primordial laws.

Could this be karma? I deliberately left some unresolved karma in Langya World, but I didnt expect it to be so useless. Gu Nan washed away that force and shook his head a little inside his mindscape.

After a long time, Gu Nan slowly opened his eyes, and the shadow under his feet suddenly expanded, then retreated back into him.

Shadow Form.

He stretched out his right hand and gently grasped something. A pitch-black longsword gradually condensed. The sword was slender and narrow, glittering with a faint black gleam.

The familiar touch made Gu Nan smile. He held the sword and lightly stabbed forward, causing a strange ripple to echo through the palace.

The successful advancement to Tier 3 not only strengthened his body to an unprecedented height, but it also gave him the genuine Power of Shadows core skill.

Based on the cultivation theory in Star Realm, advancement from Innate to Prodigious Realm was a process of spiritual transformation.

Although the advancement principle behind the Evil God Temple was different, the final result was similar. Gu Nans spirit had been greatly strengthened, and the strength of his skill had also reached Tier 3. Now, he no longer needed to rely on the inferior version of the skill that required equipment to be equipped.

More importantly, due to the effect of Shadow Earring, his current Power of Shadows was actually Level 2!

As a core skill, Power of Shadows at Level 1 unlocked the Hidden Shadows skill, while Level 2 unlocked Shadow Form.

The function of Shadow Form was to manipulate shadows to create things. Not only could it create an incomparably handy weapon that could change shape at any time, but it could also turn into armor for defense. At the highest level, it could even create a humanoid clone.

Shadow was truly worthy of being one of the top core skills. Not only was it a powerful skill, but it was also ridiculously difficult to control. Ordinary players would need at least three to five years of practice to reach the level where they can create a clone.

But of course, this wasnt anything difficult for Gu Nan.

After practicing all the variations of Shadow Form, Gu Nans consciousness returned to his body.

The next step is to pay a visit to Immortal Demon World. With my current strength, its no longer hard to hunt down Prodigious Realm cultivators, so I can earn a large amount of Evil Value and points this way. Gu Nan considered his next moves.

Although he had already advanced to Tier 3 and his Evil Value had also reached 50, this wasnt enough by far.

Next, at the 100, 200, and 300 Evil Value thresholds respectively, he would unlock three more normal skill slots. Thus, hed be able to buy and use normal skills, and even his core skill would be upgraded.

But if he wanted to advance to Tier 4, hed need a full 500 Evil Value.

And the points he required would be astronomical, not to mention Gu Nan must still set aside some points to buy some Tier 3 equipment.

Equipment like the Observer Eyepiece and even the Four Element Crossbow had already reached the end of their useful lives. They were just waiting for Gu Nan to buy better items to replace them.

But before that, I have to visit the Reincarnation club first.

Gu Nan didnt forget that he had accepted the combat coach job in order to buy enough star iron to communicate with Astral Gate.

There were many powerful individuals in Star Realm. Gu Nan didnt have enough power to act recklessly in Star Realm just yet, so he must abide by the rules there for the time being.

Just when Gu Nan was about to head to Immortal Demon World, two people secretly arrived outside Azure Dragon Halls headquarters.

Master, this is Azure Dragon Halls new headquarters, A young man with a strong body stood beside a white-haired middle-aged man and spoke as he bowed.

To change headquarters 5 times within the span of three daysthe leader of this Azure Dragon Hall is also a cautious person, The white-haierd man smiled with interest and said softly.

He then turned towards the young man. The murderer who killed your Martial Uncle Han may be inside. Dont you want to take revenge on him?

Du Mians face suddenly twisted into a ferocious expression, but he soon calmed down. Im no match for that person, so I have to ask for Masters help. Otherwise, I might not be able to catch up to him all my life.

Hahahaha! The white-haired man laughed heartily. His laughter was full of joy as he slapped Du Mian on the shoulder with great force.

Thats right. You know when to bow and when to stand tall. The white-haired man said meaningfully, If you were unwilling to admit defeat, you would always lose. Master is very gratified that you have learned to retreat!

When Du Mian heard this, he was silent for a long time. Finally, he breathed out a long sigh. Ill have to trouble Master to kill this person.

No hurry. The white-haired man waved his hand lightly. Their leader wont be able to escape. Why should we expose ourselves in advance before the other party even shows up?

The right way to go about this is to suppress the enemy by force
