Beyond the Scope of Playing Dirty
Once activated, [Unity with Heaven and Man] cannot be stopped unless its own duration ends. Otherwise, regardless of any oaths made, it will be used first to supply energy.
And once energy is supplied through it, it will Devour Heaven and Earth.
The scattered layers are alright, but even the "Devour Heaven and Earth" mode can be cleared through brute force.
It's hard to say about integer levels; if your progress in some levels is clear, you can even max them out by using the "world-destroying" method.
It would be troublesome if you encountered a reverse progress mode like Oddball Q&A or Glacier Cruise.
In the Devour Heaven and Earth," you might easily lose the entire level, leaving you with no progress and forcing you to skip levels or exit the tower.
Instead, it backfired and slowed down the progress.
Therefore, the concept of "Unity with Heaven and Man" is a double-edged sword that must be used with caution.
Like nuclear fusion, if used properly, it becomes a high-yield, clean energy source; if used improperly, it can explode.
Wang Wen used bubbles to envelop everyone as they stepped into the portal.
Watching the white light rise, feeling the energy within his body recover by half, he fell into deep thought.
Floor 502.
He stared intently as the surroundings turned to dust and dissolved into the airflow, pondering:
If that doesn't work.
Can it be the other way around?
The scattered number layer is solved using energy, and the integer number layer is restored using [Unity with Heaven and Man]?
This seems to make it easier to control.
Once you understand the progress pattern of the integer layer, you'll be fine.
Alternatively, conditions could be added directly to the oath to restore energy without affecting progress.
The speed might be a little slower, but fortunately, the time to recover energy is much shorter than the time to increase energy.
Besides, now that I have a ninth-level physique, even if I'm slow, I won't be that slow.
While pondering.
I've also cleared floor 502.
He relied on the oath to use [Unity with Heaven and Man] to do what he liked while also clearing several levels of the game.
The remaining levels were quickly passed as well.
Not only did his energy return to full, he also managed to earn some money.
Upon reaching the 510th floor, I exchanged World Power to repair my body. With my energy fully restored, the cost of repairing my body wasn't too high.
At most, it's just a bit more expensive than a level nine physique, costing a few thousand points of world power.
Repair complete.
Unlock the level.
The 510th floor appears to be on a small island, surrounded by azure waters.
The beach is long but poorly maintained, covered with various shells, corals, and even fish carcasses.
Before we could even admire more of the scenery...
A buzzing sound came from deep within the island.
Immediately afterwards, dense "black mist" rose up and swept towards the five people.
Upon closer inspection.
They were flying insects that looked like enlarged versions of beetles, each as big as an adult's fist.
Its mouthparts, resembling sharp scissors, gleamed with a chilling light with every movement.
Wang Wen waved her hand, releasing a transparent barrier to block the flying insects.
Insects crawled layer upon layer over the barrier, completely covering everyone and preventing them from seeing the light of day.
Before long, black specks even emerged from the sand beneath our feet.
It almost bit several people's legs and feet.
Startled He Jiong quickly stomped his feet and crushed the insects one by one.
The progress numbers shifted slightly.
More black spots emerged from the sand.
Even as the sand churned, one could vaguely see a thin layer beneath which lay a dense mass of black objects.
It was chilling, as if the entire island was made up of these insects.
Wang Wen lifted everyone into the air.
He picked up the Scepter and began to swear an oath.
Since this place is so unfriendly, let's just erase it.
Let's take advantage of the [Unity with Heaven and Man] effect to see exactly how much energy is needed for a 100% successful fusion.
The Scepter began to shake.
After the overall physical enhancement reaches level nine, the speed of energy conversion and transfer also increases significantly, about four to five times faster than at level seven.
The materials on the island rapidly turned into powder and were drawn into the airflow.
After passing through several thin layers of sand, a wriggling black object was revealed underneath.
It was full of bugs!
Upon contact with the air, the entire island "flew up" with a "boom".
The scene was absolutely spectacular.
The insect army blotted out the sky, seemingly covering the entire sea and sky.
The He Jiong left several people trembling with fear and speechless.
Fortunately, they were all hiding in Wang Wen's bubble, just like hiding in a safe and sturdy house during a storm, looking out the glass window at the raging wind, rain, lightning, and thunder.
The flying insects were not very big.
Moreover, there are a large number of them.
Air currents cannot easily destroy them.
However, the tornado quickly entered the "Devour Heaven and Earth" phase.
The atmospheric clouds and seawater were connected by air currents, and lightning kept exploding in the thick clouds.
The black insects had intended to intimidate people with their terrifying appearance.
It turned out that the situation they created here was even more terrifying.
They were a little bewildered.
They hovered in the air, whispering to each other.
Being defeated in one's strongest area always involves a psychological breakdown.
Before long, they began to feel fear.
They retreated little by little into the distance.
Wang Wen used his Heaven-Reaching Giant Hand to part the lightning-stirring clouds, watching the dark, swarming army of insects flee in disarray.
The people around him were laughing heartily and having a great time.
Wang Wen glanced at the progress of the levels and realized she was still a little short.
So it reached out its giant hand and scooped a handful from the swarm of insects.
The dark swarm of insects scattered and fled like boiling water being poured into an anthill.
It turns out that even seemingly united insect swarms can scatter and fly away when faced with overwhelming danger.
For ordinary creatures, "Devour Heaven and Earth" is simply too powerful.
Just like chess players playing chess.
The competition is about chess skills.
Some are high, some are low.
You worry about one piece, he worries about half a piece.
With a single move, Devour Heaven and Earth devoured the entire chessboard, floor, walls, roof, and plaza.
This no longer falls under the category of cheating.
What can the chess player do?
There are two hours left until the reset time.
The Scepter finally stopped shaking.
The vow has been fulfilled.
The concept of "Unity with Heaven and Man" has also ceased its "Devour Heaven and Earth."
Based on the current "speed" of energy extraction, this period of time would be enough to replenish approximately 17.2 times the energy level of Wang Wen.
If we include the complete body consumed within the previous five hundred floors, and the value of one in twenty thousandths.
The energy required for a 100% successful fusion is approximately 18,2021 Wang Wen's worth.
Wang Wen felt more confident.
Turning to He Jiong and the others, I said, "I'm going back to the 500th floor. You can leave the tower directly. The plans for next week have changed; the specific itinerary is yet to be determined."
He Jiong and the other three nodded silently in agreement, but none of them left the tower. Instead, they returned to the 500th floor together.
[Returning to a previous tower floor will prevent you from climbing further until the weekend resets. Mr. A, is that correct?]
"Confirm!"
A streak of light flashed by.
The group appeared in the main hall of the Imperial Preceptor's residence.
Wang Wen nodded secretly.
His experience was correct; returning and Same-Floor Teleportation are indeed different. Same-Floor Teleportation you back to the location where you first entered the level, while returning teleports you back to the location where you left the level.
If this can be utilized effectively, it can prevent the potential problem of always ending up in the same spot.
The "immortal" returned in less than an Hour.
The servants who were cleaning and tidying up the hall were startled.
After getting a clear look at Wang Wen's face, they quickly paid their respects, and someone was about to go out to inform the Grand Preceptor.
But there stood the Fox, looking quite shrewd, at the doorway.
