Chapter 1279 - Playing God (3) (1/2)

Dyon stood with his eyes closed at the edge of the portal. He too had entered a lush forest, but unlike those of the 99 universes, he was at the edge of the gate.

Still, he wasn't too worried about it. His divine sense reached out 100 000km and a single gate was half that size. Considering the fact the Epistemic Tower was located at the very center of the gate, even if Dyon's divine sense was a quarter of what it was now, he'd still have them within his range.

'Hm… So they did have a method for quickly reaching the tower.'

This was a slight problem. One had to remember that after Dyon conquered the Epistemic Tower of his universe, the ”danger zone”, meaning the field of spatial tears, disappeared, making the area much safer. Obviously, the same thing was true of this universe that had Donari as their key wielder currently.

Now, Dyon was 20 000 or so km away while his opponents had a near cakewalk to the tower.

Exactly like an ordinary tower, Prince Nova would only have to enter and reach the top floor to become the new key wielder.

This ”top floor” obviously didn't refer to the room filled with statues that stood above the dao formation floors. There were two separate facets of the Epistemic Tower. One was tied to the inner world, while the other involved the outer world.

The inner world referred to the saint, celestial and dao floors. As for the outer world, it was they that contained the various training rooms that Delia and Eli stayed it. The outer world was also where Dyon fought his final battle with Alidor. In addition, this outer world was also where you'd find the everchanging statue on the first floor with the ten trial gates pertaining to the old man's 5 heaven defying powers.

To conquer the tower, Prince Nova would only have to climb the stairs of the outer world. When he reached the top floor, the key wielder would be summoned.

However, the key wielder would also face a punishment for allowing this to happen. The laws of the tower would come into effect and knock them down a small cultivation realm below the challenger, or a full cultivation realm. The punishment would be decided based on which was most devastating to the key wielder.

As things currently stood, Donari couldn't even defeat Prince Nova at full strength, let alone with a punishment.

That said…

Dyon smiled.

The only reason the punishment of the Key Wielder was so severe was because the powers they held were too great to allow for such incompetence.

Since Dyon could use his key wielding abilities to teleport millions of Uidah to another gate entirely, why couldn't Donari use his abilities to teleport them a few thousand kilometers?

'No need to rush… Let's play a little game first.'
