Chapter 151 - The End of the Hundred-Floor Tower (1/2)

The group moved forward at slow steps. Colen was already showing an ugly face with each meter moved. Gomat was also suffering, but not as much as Colen. Ao, Mirrer, and Ula were more or less at the same condition as Colen too. As for Krune, well, he was following Ao and the others at his own pace. He could have gone ahead, but he didn't want to catch attention.

Between 10500 and 11000 meters mark, Colen, Ula, and another two guys that Krune didn't know the name finally reached their limits. There was no such thing as sitting and get used to the pressure anymore. Once they stopped, that would be because they can't resist. Just like that, those four lost their consciousness, and only their energy flags were left behind.

The remaining participants are now Krune, Gomat, Ao, Mirrer, and the guy that Krune doesn't know. Surprisingly, Ao had resisted to this point, which amazed Krune a lot. But now wasn't the time to talk to him since he could see that Ao was very close to his limit, it won't take long before he also passes out.

Mirrer was in the same state as Ao. It was a wonder to guess who would fall first.

Gomat proved that he really came from a Planet with its majority being demon beasts. He was obviously putting a lot of effort, but Krune could see that it wasn't his limit yet, Gomat can still move further! One really can't doubt the will of a dragon!

At 11259 meters, Mirrer passed out too.

At 11423 meters, Ao couldn't hold anymore and followed suit.

At 11972 meters, that guy that Krune didn't know the name bid farewell to the last door too.

Gomat looked at Krune, and one could see a smile on his dragon face. He even had the luxury to send Krune a Divine Sense message.

”Haha! I knew it! You were indeed the one to fight me in the end.”

Krune then replied back.

”You are also amazing. As expected of a dragon, even their will is unfathomable!”

Gomat slowly shook his head with some difficulty.

”The fact that I have a Yang Core and I'm a dragon indeed helped. But what really tempered my will was the years of constant battles that I had undergone on my Planet and outside of it. I had experienced Life and Death situations more times than I can count already.”

Krune believed him, if not for his several cheats, he probably would have passed out too. Still, everyone has their own luck, and one can't make little of the fact that Krune was the one who found about the Myriad Energy Techniques by himself. It is only right that he can use it without thinking that he is being unfair.

Gomat and Krune pressed forward.

12km...

12.5km...

13km...

”Argh”

Finally, Gomat couldn't resist anymore. In fact, at this distance, even Krune was felling challenging to move forward as well. If his conjecture isn't wrong, he would at most be able to another kilometer if he kept this pace. After all, the further you go, the stronger the elder's pressure is.

Gomat looked at Krune and used his last bit of strength to send him a Divine Message again.

”It was only an idea, but now I'm certain that this is not your limit! Show me what you are capable of, you definitely can go further, I know that.”

And then, Gomat's dragon body disappeared.

Krune was taken aback by those words, his idea was to move just a few more meters and then willingly give up. But after what Gomat said, he was conflicted. Gomat had done his best to challenge him until the very end, and Krune hates the idea of not giving his all after his opponent showed so much effort.

”Very well, whatever happens, happens! It's not like I can catch more attention than I already got anyway.”

Poor Krune had no idea how wrong he was.

Krune thought that he would be able to move at most one more Kilometer with his actual speed, but that was only with this speed alone.

Suddenly, Tribulation Lightning started to flow around his body, and Krune looked ahead. Then, with a flash of purple light, Krune disappeared from where he was!

Krune's idea was simple and straight forward. Since he can only move another kilometer at a slow pace, he will bear the grunt of the increased pressure all at once and move forward until he passes out too.

The elders outside looked at that and were amazed.

”What?! He can still move like that?”

Gile was taken aback, even he didn't expect Krune to be this bold.

Jin and Tiago were also excited about that image.

”Just how far can he get? Can he pass the previous record of 16.7km?”

This was a record achieved by another Major Core owner over 50 thousand years ago, so not many could remember it. That Major Core owner was still in the Sect until now, though. Not only that, but he was also watching the test from his secluded place at the moment. His name was Lucio Koffel, the Divine Path Sect Sect-Head!

The hundred-floor tower test only happens once every 1000 years. As for the cultivation pressure door, it is only added as part of the hundred-floor tower around every 10000! But today, there has been an exception, the pressure door was used again just 6540 years after the last time.

The Sect Head was watching it with a thoughtful expression. He then thought about something that happened around 5 to 6 years ago. That day, he was coming back from an inspection of a branch of the Sect when he bumped into another spaceship. That spaceship was none other than the Wang Clan's one!

From inside, he could see Old Uncle Feng staring at him with Feifei by his side. At that time, he received a Divine Sense message from the old guy.

”During your next Entrance Exam, you might want to put a little more effort into it. You will probably find someone you will really like at that time too.”

After that, the Wang Clan's Spaceship departed, and Uncle Feng did not answer the Sect Head's Divine Sense message when he asked what he was talking about.

But as the Sect Head of the Divine Path Sect, he obviously recognized Uncle Feng with a single glance and couldn't help but think.

'Feng the Crazy! I received information that he was under orders to protect a little girl from the Wang Clan. At first, I didn't believe that. Why would a legendary figure like him waste his time to take care of a little girl? Even if it was the Wang Clan's Head daughter, it was still asking too much of him.'
