Chapter 371 The Importance of Leadership
"This is the second floor of Wuqi Tower."
"You will all be teleported to a small world and attacked. What you need to do is... survive all the attacks within that small world."
"You two groups of soldiers, the first group has rested for a long time and their divine bodies have recovered considerably. The second group of soldiers, quickly recover yourselves. You two groups of soldiers will be teleported one after the other!"
Those who hid inside warships to avoid battle perished and were annihilated.
The resounding voice echoed in the minds of the ten soldiers.
Immediately following.
Previously, the five soldiers, including the dark red armored youth, were instantly transported to a distant part of this dark red, scorching land by space-time tremors. At a glance, the five soldiers were scattered, each of them trapped in a small world of about hundreds of millions of kilometers.
This period was used to restore the divine bodies of the five soldiers who came in later.
"Quickly restore your divine body."
"quick."
"Recover as much as possible."
The three soldiers said.
Even the treasures that restore divine bodies need time to take effect. Like before, they were immediately sent here right after the battle on the first level… they couldn't even stay on the first level if they wanted to. Fortunately, Wu Qilou's plan was thorough, giving them time for the treasures within their bodies to function and gradually restore their divine bodies.
Gu Ce's divine power was not greatly depleted, so there was no need for him to rush to recover his divine body.
……
The five soldiers who entered the five miniature worlds ahead of time were all being ravaged by the miniature worlds.
Because the distance wasn't far, the five soldiers who arrived later could easily see what was happening over there.
Just as the soldiers in the five small worlds were relaxing considerably.
Suddenly, the earth began to tremble.
Rumble~~~
The earth in the five small worlds was trembling. The earth, which was originally covered with cracks, especially the scorching red liquid beneath the cracks, was now gushing out and flowing directly to the surface. This scorching liquid... caused the five soldiers to fly up and dare not land.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~" The crimson, scorching liquid rapidly gathered together, continuously converging.
moment.
It coalesced into a towering crimson giant! Then, the surface of the crimson giant began to solidify, transforming from a liquid giant… into a dark red rock giant! And wisps of scorching liquid still flowed across the surface of this rock giant…
"Roar~~~"
Five dark red rock giants roared simultaneously, and crimson liquid continued to gush from the cracks in the earth, connecting to the bodies of the dark red giants.
"Rumble~~~" The sky above the five small worlds continued to bombard downwards, and much of the light struck the dark red rock giant. It only caused some rocks to fall off the rock giant, but those rocks quickly turned into crimson liquid and condensed back onto the giant's body without causing any damage.
Accompanied by a deafening roar.
Five dark red rock giants charged at the five soldiers at the same time. These dark red rock giants either stomped with their big feet or swept over with their rocky fists... In the first exchange alone, all five soldiers were sent flying.
"not good."
"That's too, too cruel."
"They're in big trouble now."
The three soldiers watching them pass the test were all surprised, and even Gu Ce and Luo Feng couldn't help but look over.
That first encounter alone was enough to determine—
The dark red rock giants are definitely gods! Although these rock giants don't have any protective armor, they are truly immortal because of the endless crimson liquid below that replenishes them and because they can recover even when injured.
If it were just dealing with rock giants, that would be fine.
It must be known that the light emanating from that ancient rune was overwhelming! Previously, when facing it alone, they could try to dodge as much as possible, only attempting to block it a few times when they couldn't dodge. But now, being constantly attacked by the dark red rock giant, the five soldiers were unable to do their best to dodge the light, leaving them almost constantly bombarded.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
They were continuously bombarded by light.
The five soldiers were in a very sorry state.
If they try their best to avoid the light, they will easily be blasted away by the rock giant.
……
Soon, it was Gu Ce's turn to take the stage, along with five other soldiers.
Inside the vast world on the second floor of Wuqi Tower, wisps of heat rise into the sky from the dark red earth, like neutron stars in the cosmic ocean that would be instantly scorched into nothingness if they were here.
Five areas, five miniature worlds.
A massive, ancient rune pattern emerged from the dark clouds above, its brilliance dazzling and its mystery unfathomable, enveloping this small world...
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The ancient runes resembled a massive warship with countless gun barrels, relentlessly unleashing countless beams of light downwards, each beam comparable to a strike from a true god! Fortunately, this was merely a trial, so the light spread across all areas. If it were concentrated, the combined attack of billions of beams would be something even an eternal true god wouldn't dare to withstand.
This shows that...
The "Wuqi Tower" left behind by His Majesty the God-King is truly extraordinary.
Swish!
Gu Ce drew his Azure Sword and shattered an incoming stream of light with a single strike. The colors of those streams of light were different, but their power was exactly the same, roughly equivalent to a strike from an ordinary True God.
What Gu Ce cared about most was not these streams of light, but the rock giant that would appear later.
boom!
Deep within the massive cracks in the earth, scorching, flowing crimson liquid continuously erupted, surging and turbulent. Large amounts of crimson liquid rapidly converged and condensed directly into a gigantic liquid monster. Then, this crimson liquid quickly solidified, transforming into a dark red rock giant!
Meanwhile, the crimson liquid from the earth continued to flow, constantly replenishing the rock giant.
"Roar~~~"
The dark red rock giant roared and charged directly at Gu Ce.
Gu Ce dodged at a leisurely pace. With the help of the Blue Crystal Wings, Gu Ce's speed increased by more than three levels. Some True Gods at their limit, and even Void True Gods who were not good at dodging, might not be as fast as Gu Ce in close-range dodging!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Like an annoying fly, Gu Ce casually fluttered around the dark red rock giant, using its divine body to block the attacks of those streams of light, minimizing the consumption of divine power in order to prepare for the trials to come!
As for attacking this dark red rock giant?
This rock giant can recover immediately from any injury, so there is no need to fight it; it only wastes divine power.
Gu Ce easily dodged the rock giant's attacks, occasionally parrying them. This second level of the challenge didn't consume as much divine power for Gu Ce as the first level.
……
The third floor of the silver-gray palace next to Wuqi Tower in Shenwang Valley.
Inside the main hall.
The floating light screen was displaying ten battle scenes in ten small worlds, with each scene of ten soldiers clearly visible.
On the four thrones in the main hall, the huge black mist shrouding the leftmost throne suddenly began to tremble.
"Movement technique..." a voice came from within the black mist.
Wow!
Originally, there were ten small world scenes on the screen, but in an instant, the other nine small world scenes shrank, while one small world scene rapidly grew larger, occupying 90% of the entire screen area.
Within that small world scene... the one fighting the dark red rock giant is Gu Ce!
"This movement technique... although it relies on the Azure Crystal Wings, obtaining the Azure Crystal Wings itself is a symbol of his strength. His speed is unbelievable... wait, there's more?"
The Black Mist Commander suddenly turned his head and looked at the scene of another small world, which had expanded, and in it was Luo Feng.
"This person's movement technique is even more exquisite!"
"If the previous one was about speed and reaction time, this one is about technique."
"Both of them... are absolute geniuses!"
The Black Mist Commander seemed completely stunned. As one of the four commanders of the Divine King Valley, it had been selected by the Wu Qi Tower generation after generation and had seen countless elite soldiers.
However, the only two creatures to display such terrifying agility are the two that it has discovered so far!
While it's only his movement technique that's extraordinary, it doesn't mean he's equally extraordinary in other aspects. However... being able to reach such a level in movement technique suggests that even if this soldier is slightly inferior in other areas, he's probably far superior to many elite soldiers.
"Why didn't the four generals tell me about this kind of soldier?"
"Such a soldier is absolutely the most important seed, the most important seed that His Majesty the God-King needs, yet he wasn't on the list I was given." The Black Mist Commander's angry voice rang out. His purpose in the endless years in God-King Valley was to find that peerless figure that His Majesty the God-King needed.
"Soldier Cangwu, Yinhe?"
"Oh... so you just joined the army and are already on a title-granting mission. Looks like you're absolutely confident." The Black Mist Commander's voice held a hint of joy. "You three, wake up! Come on, come on!!!"
The sound boomed, penetrating the entire silver palace and reaching deep beneath its silver-gray walls.
There, three other commanders lay asleep.
The leaders of God King Valley have no other duties, so all four leaders... each have one leader in charge of the overall situation of God King Valley and the entire 'God King Realm'. The other three leaders are only summoned when special events occur.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Three powerful auras rose up, surprising even some of the true god guards in God King Valley.
……
On the third floor of the silver-gray hall, on the four thrones above, apart from the one on the far left shrouded in black mist, the second throne from the left held a beautiful woman in silver armor. Her eyes were like the source of all light; being looked at by her was like being bathed in the warmest light, involuntarily drawn into a world of light.
Beside her sat a burly, tall commander in blood-red armor. This commander wore a helmet with nine silver horns resembling scimitars, exuding boundless domineering aura.
On the far right, a jet-black, scaled beast was coiled up. This beast had two faces, each with only one eye. At this moment, one of its eyes was open, while the other eye at the back of its head was closed. The open eye was pitch black, seemingly capable of devouring everything... radiating an endless, intense aura of slaughter.
"You three, look! Look at the soldier with the withered blue crystal wings, and the soldier riding the Golden Claw God!" A voice came from the black mist.
The other three commanders, who had just awakened from their long slumber, all looked at the floating light screen. They were also full of anticipation, after all, the order His Majesty the God King gave them when he left was to find an unparalleled person who could ascend to the top of the "Wuqi Tower". They had been waiting for far too long.
The three commanders immediately became interested and looked at the two people on the screen.
During their long years on duty, they had seen countless elite soldiers; those who were not of a high enough standard naturally did not attract their attention.
Watching carefully...
Time ticked by, and the three commanders remained silent.
How long has it been?
Ever since His Majesty the God-King disappeared, they have been waiting here, hoping to one day complete His Majesty the God-King's mission!
Now, are we finally seeing a glimmer of hope?
