720 floors, Divine Power World.
This is how Wang Wen referred to this level.
This was because that level was where he first encountered divine power.
This is also because the levels are filled with many non- World Tower items that use divine power as their energy source.
In their past lives, most Tower Climber, including Wang Wen, relied on the abilities "bestowed" by the World Tower to climb the tower, in addition to the five basic skills—extraordinary skills and various props. Analyzing their effects and essence, they are inseparable from the rules of the World Tower.
Even if there is a special permission to hide rewards, it still falls within the scope of the rules and is a reasonable way to achieve the goal.
But in this lifetime.
Wang Wen encountered a completely new ability that existed outside the rules of the World Tower.
Divine power doesn't seem like something "given" by the World Tower.
Although it is also recognized by the World Tower, it can be converted into energy for use through Wang Wen's Five-Fold Enlightenment.
It still cannot be considered a product of the World Tower.
Rather, it is a new thing generated by the subjective consciousness of life forms inside and outside the tower.
Wang Wen obtained it inside the tower, while the Western Continent obtained it outside the tower, which means that divine power is not limited to the World Tower.
In fact.
The appearance of divine power gradually made Wang Wen suspect that the natives of the tower's inner gates were, in some ways, no different from the people of the outside world.
What difference could there be between two beings capable of generating divine power?
He wanted to see Ren Ruanruan.
On the one hand, I wanted to see how this veteran team member was doing, and on the other hand, I wanted to share some insights and experiences about divine power with the only person on our side who possessed it.
After all, it had been a long time since they last met, and he himself was now a "god" with divine power, so he had the confidence to discuss things with Ren Ruanruan.
Therefore, in the 720th level of the Divine Power World, Wang Wen led her team to open the level.
The moment the four appeared, before the fog had even completely dissipated and before they could even get a clear look at their surroundings, they felt waves of heat wash over them.
Beneath our feet lay vast stretches of scorched earth, and above us hung a hazy, gray sky, with occasional flames peeking out from the dark clouds.
The other three were visiting this place for the first time, and they found it quite novel and interesting to look around.
Wang Wen frowned at the almost completely unfamiliar scenery.
The last time he came here, it wasn't this apocalyptic scene.
Without waiting for further thought.
Suddenly, feather-like flames descended from where the flames had been protruding from the sky, landing precisely on the spot where Wang Wen and the others were standing, burning whatever they touched.
Wang Wen erected a transparent barrier and looked up at the feathers stuck to it, burning fiercely.
The flames turned from orange to white, and slowly died down after a while, leaving nothing but emptiness in the end, having burned away a significant amount of the energy used to maintain the barrier.
He was slightly surprised.
The energy consumed by blocking the feathers far exceeded expectations.
Those seemingly light and flimsy gadgets are hundreds of times more powerful than nuclear fusion of the same volume!
It is impolite not to reciprocate.
They received such a "warm" welcome as soon as they arrived.
It wouldn't be right not to express my gratitude.
Wang Wen thought for a moment.
It consumed the energy of 20 Foundation Establishment stages to condense into a " Little Sun," which was then thrown into the fiery cloud with Heaven-Reaching Giant Hand.
The Little Sun exploded.
All the light in the sky dimmed at the same time, except for a single point of light resembling a golden azalea blooming in the center of the explosion area.
The clouds within the field of vision all spread outwards from the center, revealing the dark blue sky.
All the previous flames, feathers, and even dark clouds vanished without a trace in the impact of the Little Sun's explosion.
"Team leader?!"
Just as Wang Wen was looking up at her masterpiece...
A figure slowly emerged from the open space not far away.
Ren Ruanruan seemed to have come from a great distance, appearing breathless, but the joy on her face was unmistakable.
"Great, they're finally here!" Her eyes were slightly red, and she threw herself into Wang Wen's arms.
He Jiong was standing next to him, whistled.
Chen Hansheng shifted his gaze to the sky, carefully studying the drifting clouds.
Only Mi Lailai stared intently at Ren Ruanruan with unfriendly eyes, and even reached out to tug at Wang Wen's sleeve with a suspicious look on her face.
She knew that Wang Wen had a very devoted fangirl named Cheng Queyi.
As a fellow "woman in the industry," Mi Lailai felt obligated to support her junior's career on behalf of her young fan.
Unexpectedly, Wang Wen ignored her and instead gently patted Ren Ruanruan's back, asking curiously, "What were those attacks just now? Are there any more enemies in this level?"
Ren Ruanruan seemed to awaken from a dream.
With teary eyes, she stood up straight and said anxiously to Wang Wen, "It's the person who created the divine artifact! There's no time to explain now, come with me quickly, the monitoring mechanism was just triggered, he'll be here soon, let's go to the other bunker to take shelter!"
Wang Wen didn't take any chances because she didn't know the situation yet.
Follow Ren Ruanruan all the way "flying".
Soon we came to a ground-level entrance with a metal structure.
I haven't even had a chance to get close yet.
The road ahead was blocked.
Ren Ruanruan's expression changed drastically, and she tried to turn around and run, but large swaths of feather-like substances appeared in the air and blocked her movements.
She blinked her eyes, then waved her hand, scattering sprays of blue liquid that dissolved into the feathers upon landing.
Unfortunately, there were just too many feathers, and she couldn't get rid of the little bit of water she had.
It quickly floated towards the group.
Wang Wen once again erected a transparent barrier, blocking all the feathers outside. Watching the orange flames burn from yellow to white, taking away a large amount of energy, Wang Wen frowned and looked at the person blocking her way.
The obstacle appeared to be an ordinary-looking human male. His expression was initially smug, but it turned somewhat gloomy after he saw Wang Wen covering the feathers.
He walked over step by step.
He said coldly to Ren Ruanruan, "I've finally caught you. Where did you find another new accomplice? It doesn't matter. No matter how many accomplices you have, today I will eliminate you, this Eastern vermin, once and for all! I've accumulated my divine power for many years; I can't afford to waste my time with you like this."
"The East?" Wang Wen looked at Ren Ruanruan with a puzzled expression.
Ren Ruanruan nodded and explained, "The other party claims to be the former High Priest of the Western Continent."
"The people from the Western Continent have all entered the World Tower? And to such a high level?" Chen Hansheng asked incredulously.
Ren Ruanruan shook her head and said, "He said he didn't enter through the World Tower, but rather broke through space and entered this world directly."
"Break through space and enter directly?!!"
Everyone present was astonished this time.
Wang Wen wondered if she herself could do something like this, and the Western Continent had already accomplished it? Had their strength become that terrifying?
The man blocking the way on the other side noticed that the group was completely ignoring him and chatting away.
His gaze grew even more sinister.
With a blink of an eye, the number of feathers outside Wang Wen's transparent barrier suddenly increased dramatically, becoming so dense in the blink of an eye that they wrapped the group up like a curled-up hedgehog.
The feathers were found to be burning in mid-air, but were blocked by some invisible barrier.
The person blocking the way sneered, "Another barbaric creation of the World Tower, isn't it? I'd like to see how long it can last!"
Wang Wen peered through the gaps in the feathers at the person blocking her way and said, "Hey you, I know your current High Priest. I'm quite interested in your methods of manipulating divine power. Want to come over and have a chat? I really can't bear to kill you."
The obstacle laughed loudly, "Kill me? You're truly a foolish and arrogant barbarian from the East! I can even tear through space, what makes you think you can..."
"Click"
It was as if there were two invisible iron clamps in the air; before the person blocking the way could finish speaking, their arm was snapped in two.
He looked down at his severed arm in shock.
With a whoosh, it vanished from the spot.
