Devouring the Stars: Withdrawing Talents

Chapter 225 Forced Clearance
The secret realm of heaven and earth, the world of Seven Flames Palace.

"Hum..."

In the light mist, a strange beast with an ox head and a snake body, all emerald green, had red eyes and shook its head frantically, as if looking for a suspicious object.

Unexpected.

A figure rushed over like a ghost, and arrived in front of it almost instantly, and then a blurry light exploded in front of it.

The beast with a bull's head and a snake's tail instinctively raised its head, its eyes reflecting the dreamy light.

"Pfft!"

Almost instantly, its head was pierced by the stream of light, and dark red hot liquid splashed out and dripped onto the ground, sizzling like sulfuric acid and raising thick smoke.

"Territory Lord Level Three."

"Another dead end!"

It's been three days!
Three days have passed since Yang Wu stepped into the Seven Flames Palace and entered the first level of the maze assessment.

During these three days, he pushed the bronze door seventy or eighty times, and gradually figured out some patterns.

The maze passages are not completely unobstructed.

There are often forks in the passage. If you choose the wrong one, you will be stuck in a dead end. The threats in the dead end are much stronger than those in the fog.

The fog is okay.

As long as they reach a certain distance, they will disperse, allowing you to detect dangers in the fog in advance.

Before this dead end of the passage is confirmed to be a dead end, not only will there be strange beasts lurking, but there may also be deadly maze traps.

Also.

After completing each maze passage and arriving at the three bronze gates to make a choice, the number and strength of the strange beasts or guarding puppets in the next passage are random.

However, as long as you stubbornly choose only one door, the threat level of the strange beasts, guarding puppets, or traps will gradually increase.

And the more stubbornly one chooses this option, the further away from the end it seems.

The "fire puppet" guarding the bronze door has fluctuating strength. The strongest one Yang Wu has ever encountered is a level 6 domain lord fire puppet.

"Domain Lord-level Flame Core!"

Yang Wu took out a translucent diamond-shaped crystal, which was somewhat different from the cosmic-level flame core. There were two red lines engraved inside this crystal.

The core of the cosmic-level flame is one red line, the domain-lord-level flame core is two red lines, so the realm-lord-level should have three red lines.

During these three days.

The clone of the giant beast Destroyer in the Palace of Time finally managed to figure out the effects and functions of the flame core.

Flame core!

As long as the Force power penetrates into it and successfully activates the red lines, the flame core will seem to burn and continue to emit a strange fluctuation.

This strange fluctuation can actually enhance the clarity of the cultivator's perception of the laws, not only of lightning and fire, but also the clarity of the laws of time and space.

Regardless of any law attributes.

of course.

The burning of the red lines is time-limited. The cosmic-level flame core can only burn continuously for one day, and the clarity of the perception of the laws is limited.

It has increased by 30%.

The Domain Lord-level flame core had a 50% increase in the clarity of its law sensing ability. It had been burning continuously for thirty days and had just been burned out.

nice one!
Enhancing the clarity of a cultivator's perception of the laws is equivalent to enhancing the speed of comprehension of the laws. Although it is only a consumable, it is indeed a good thing that can increase the speed of cultivation.

Now Yang Wu no longer hopes to pass through the maze so quickly.

This flame core must be the same as the blood crystal. It is a forbidden item of the virtual universe company and a strategic item for the company's top management.

Good things, of course, should be had in greater quantities.

Swish!
Yang Wu instantly vanished from the spot. As the giant beast's clone appeared, the maze's passageway seemed to expand proportionally. The passage, once hundreds of meters wide, instantly expanded to hundreds of kilometers. The walls' toughness also changed. The giant beast's clone pressed its palm against the wall.

When the palm sank a certain distance, it could not go any deeper. Even if Yang Wu burst out with all his strength and punched it down, it still did not move at all.

The Continent of Seven Flames Palace!
Yang Wu felt that this wall was connected to the entire continent. If he wanted to break this wall, he would probably need the strength to break the entire continent.

And at the same time.

Yang Wu also felt that the binding force that originally bound the human body also expanded proportionally and transferred to the clone of the giant beast of destruction.

"The binding conditions remain the same!"

"Then let's do it!"

Yang Wu was ready to take drastic action. The limits of this first level of the maze had almost been tested, whether it was the strange beasts or the fire puppets guarding the gate.

They are all probabilistically distributed.

If you insist on hitting the same bronze door, the pressure of the test will become increasingly stronger. If you randomly choose another bronze door, it depends on luck.

Most of them are cosmic level, and the strongest one is the domain lord level 10. Yang Wu has encountered more than 6 domain lord level , which seems to be a limit.

That being the case.

Then just go for it!

……

Rumble!
Although the power of the giant beast's clone is not enough to force open the walls of the maze, there is naturally no need to worry too much about the slight danger inside.

With the Green Snail Armor protecting his body, Yang Wu's process of breaking through the barriers was naturally extremely rough. Those weak puppets or strange beasts guarding the barriers were not even as tall as the knees of the giant beast's clone.

Rampage all the way.

Except for turning back when encountering a dead end, the speed of this level-breaking process is obviously several times faster than that of the human being before.

Because they always choose to open the same bronze door, the strength of the gatekeepers and the strange beasts seems to have been stretched to the limit, and they are all at the 6th level of the domain lord.

One day... two days... three days... five days...

at last.

On the tenth day, after Yang Wu pushed open the bronze door in front of him, he returned to the circular hall he had first entered.

Gone?

Yang Wu felt a little sorry.

Over the past 10 days, he has harvested more than 2000 domain lord-level flame cores and more than 1500 cosmic-level flame cores.

Switching back to his human form, Yang Wu took out the pass token.

hum...

In the center of the hall, the towering stone pillar once again shone with light, and a line of strange words gradually emerged.

"Human, you have completely cleared the first level of the maze. You can choose to enter the test area directly, or continue to the next level of the maze."

"Continue to accept the maze test!"

Yang Wu made a choice immediately. Although he could enter the assessment area directly after passing the level, only a fool would choose to end it immediately.

Although the effects of the flame cores cannot be used together, the 50% increase in the clarity of the law sensing has nearly doubled his perception speed.

Because it is a consumable, the more the better.

Moreover, if the effect of the Domain Lord-level flame core is so strong, then the strengthening effect of the better quality Realm Lord-level one should be even stronger.

Pushing open a bronze door casually, Yang Wu continued his journey of harvesting the flame core.
