The Fifth Floor
The flow of time inside the Myriad Phenomena Tower is different from that outside.
A day passing Myriad Phenomena Tower is equivalent to an hour passing inside the Myriad Phenomena Platform.
The Myriad Phenomena Tower will be open for a total of seven hours, meaning that the contestants will have to spend seven days at the Myriad Phenomena Tower.
Seven days later, all players will be ejected from the Myriad Phenomena Tower.
Xu Shengguo glanced at the countdown on the top of the tower.
6:15:33
In other words, less than a day had passed inside the Myriad Phenomena Tower, and people had already gone up to the fourth floor, something that had never happened before.
Since someone went up to the fourth floor, Myriad Phenomena Platform has been completely silent.
A moment later, the entire Myriad Phenomena Platform erupted in chaos.
"My God! Someone actually made it to the fourth floor! That's incredibly fast!"
"Wow, this is a record! I remember in previous competitions, the fastest team took four days to reach the fourth level, and now someone has reached the fourth level in less than a day! That's insane!"
"I wonder which region the player is from?"
"Ask away? It's definitely the players in Zone 1! Haven't you heard? Because of the introduction of the Trading House, all the players in Zone 1 have leveled up to level 15 this time. That's twice the level of previous years, so it's normal that the speed is faster."
"That makes sense, but isn't there supposed to be ten people in Zone 1? Why are only eight people going up to the fourth floor?"
"Um... I don't understand either."
Xu Shengguo frowned. Who are these eight people on the fourth floor?
The Myriad Phenomena Tower Things has a team size requirement, with a maximum of ten players. Generally, the Novice Zone are natural teammates.
However, there were no teams with eight members in this competition.
Wrong!
Xu Shenghuo suddenly remembered that because the Zone 18 was short three people, he temporarily notified the army to send three more. In other words, the official side sent a total of 23 people.
If forming a team, it would likely consist of 8, 8, and 7 people.
So, are those eight people on the fourth floor their people?
That doesn't seem right either. Although the official team is divided into three groups, they usually act together. It's impossible for one group to have reached the fourth floor while another group hasn't even reached the third floor.
"Could something have gone wrong inside?"
The important thing is that there's a secret realm on the third floor, and under normal circumstances, no team could clear it so quickly.
Did these eight people skip the dungeon and go straight to the fourth floor?
In that case, it's possible that someone could get to the fourth floor so quickly.
Eight people appeared on the fourth floor, almost causing everyone's CPU to overheat. Everyone was guessing who these eight people were!
On the Zone 18 side, Brave Ox Ox approached Blade Shadow and asked, "Brother Dao, among your eight people, could it be that the seven of them are Jiu Chen and the others?"
Blade Shadow's gaze remained fixed on the Myriad Phenomena Tower. Upon hearing this, he shook his head. "I don't know either. The Myriad Phenomena Tower is a world unto itself. Although Jiu Chen is powerful, it's impossible for him to reach the fourth floor so quickly without a map."
"In other words, none of the eight people on the fourth floor are the Great Gods." The people from Zone 18 were somewhat disappointed.
Just as everyone was speculating, the eight white figures on the fourth floor disappeared.
At the same time, eight figures appeared on the fifth floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower.
The once noisy Myriad Phenomena Platform fell silent in the blink of an eye.
Xu Shengguo's gaze froze instantly.
"He... they... went up to the fifth floor, how is that possible?"
To date, the highest record for the Myriad Phenomena Tower is five stories, and only Jian Qingfeng has ever been to it!
Xu Shengguo could understand if these eight people had only made it to the fourth floor so quickly.
Fifth floor! He couldn't believe it!
This isn't a matter of strength, it's also a matter of access!
Many large families have maps of the first four floors of the Myriad Phenomena Tower.
However, no one knew the entrance to the fifth floor. Even Jian Qingfeng only knew a general location.
Finding the entrance inside the Myriad Phenomena Tower is no easy feat, yet these eight people managed to find the entrance to the fifth floor with ease, completely shattering Xu Shengguo's understanding.
Who are these eight people?!
~
The Myriad Phenomena Tower has five floors.
Xiao Fan felt a familiar gust of yellow sand brush against his face.
Got it, the fifth level is sandstorm weather.
The fat man covered his face with his hand, but still gave Xiao Fan a thumbs up. "Brother Chen, you're awesome! How did you find the entrance?"
Just now, Xiao Fan and his group of eight went up to the fourth floor.
The extreme weather on the fourth floor was extremely hot; their clothes, which had gotten wet on the third floor, dried in less than a minute on the fourth floor.
Then, in less than a minute, it was soaked with sweat again.
"We need to find the entrance to the fifth floor ourselves. However, I suggest we accumulate some Points on the fourth floor first, and then look for the entrance to the fifth floor," Ye Changge suggested.
Xiao Fan shook his head. "The Fierce Beast on the fourth floor are level 7-8. There's no need for us to farm Points here. Let's go directly to the entrance to the fifth floor."
Ye Changge, however, did not think so.
"Jiu Chen, you've seen it too, the entrances to each floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower aren't easy to find. If we waste too much time looking for the entrances, our Points will easily be overtaken. We should earn some Points first and find the entrances while we're at it."
Myriad Phenomena Tower, time is equally important.
They've already reached the fourth floor in just one day, giving them a significant advantage.
If they can't find the stairs to the fifth floor, their advantage will diminish.
"Don't worry, I'm confident I can find the entrance to the fifth floor."
"You can find the entrance to the fifth floor?" Ye Changge, his face full of disbelief.
The map in his hand was drawn bit by bit by the four families after they participated in the Myriad Phenomena Platform competition.
In this completely unfamiliar environment, even if you find the entrance, you might not be able to remember it completely. You'll need to mark it repeatedly to create a complete map.
The map for the fifth floor didn't even exist, and he didn't know where Xiao Fan got the confidence to find the entrance to the fifth floor.
"Brother Chen says to go to the fifth floor, then let's go. This floor is too hot; it'll be uncomfortable to fight on it."
Seeing that everyone in Zone 18 was following Xiao Fan's lead, even Qin Muyu didn't stand up to object.
Ye Changge fell silent.
Moment.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
The group walked for an unknown amount of time in the sweltering heat. Later, Xiao Fan closed his eyes, seemingly lost in thought.
Just as Ye Changge was about to persuade Xiao Fan to play for Points, Xiao Fan opened his eyes.
Then, Xiao Fan found the stairs.
Ye Changge was speechless; he hadn't expected Xiao Fan to actually find the entrance to the fifth floor.
How did he do that?!
Xiao Fan smiled mysteriously, "The staircases on each floor of the Myriad Phenomena Tower are arranged in a regular pattern."
"What pattern?" Qin Muyu's eyes lit up.
Xiao Fan smiled mysteriously, "The entire staircase of the Myriad Phenomena Tower is actually a large spiral staircase going upwards. As long as we remember the entrance and exit of each floor, we can find a general location of the staircase."
If you pay close attention, you'll notice a unique energy around the stairs. The closer you get to the stairs, the stronger this energy becomes, and the energy is most concentrated where the stairs are located.
The fat man gave an awkward smile, "Thanks, I didn't understand."
Ye Changge thought about it, but still couldn't figure it out.
Only Qin Muyu seemed lost in thought.
"This is too much trouble! With Brother Chen here, we don't need to look for the stairs. What should we do next? Should we farm Points on the fifth floor, or continue looking for the stairs to the sixth floor?"
