Chapter 93: Becoming a Demigod and Entering the Tower of Babel
Zhong Wuyai was instantly teleported to the Bone Feather Ruins.
It was located directly at the intersection of the burial site and the insect burial site.
To reach the Bone Throne, one must traverse the Sea of Skulls.
This time it's different from before. There's a law of destruction, so all the skeletons shatter upon contact and no longer respawn, as if they've completely disappeared.
The sea of skulls passed quickly, and when they arrived at the Bone Throne, Zhong Wuyai was confronted by a giant skull.
The throne was right in front of the skull, and beneath it lay a pile of bones of all kinds.
The throne is made of bones, with a skull on each side, wrapped in bones.
"Crackling sounds..." The skeletons below moved, gradually forming several giant skeletons, each about ten meters tall.
Skeleton King... Skeleton Warrior... Bone Demon... Skeleton Knight...
Zhong Wuyai mobilized the laws of fire and lightning, forming a burning ball of lightning, which he then smashed towards the skeleton warrior.
"Boom!"
Instant kill... an instant kill without any suspense.
The main reason is that the divine power is beyond the limit. No matter how much a player of level 99 converts divine power and improves the laws, they will not have more than 400 divine power.
None of the skeletons could withstand a single blow.
Even ordinary attacks can be instantly killed if infused with divine power.
What was supposed to be the most difficult job change quest was handled by Zhong Wuyai like a game, one after another...
[Ding! Defeat the Skeleton King and obtain 1 Fragment of the Codex of Annihilation]
[Ding...ding~...]
When all the giant skeletons had been harvested, Zhong Wuyai had also collected all the fragments of the Codex of Annihilation.
[Ding! The Skeleton Emperor is about to be resurrected!]
[Ding! Collect all fragments of the Codex of Annihilation. Mission Stage Two: Defeat the Demigod Skeleton Emperor.]
Zhong Wuyai looked at the Codex of Annihilation in his hand and smiled knowingly.
A demigod is really nothing special; I can kill him with a flick of my wrist right now.
【Codex of Destruction】
Rank: Semi-divine artifact
Divine Power +20
Holy Attack +50
Holy Penetration +2
Holy critical strike chance +3%
Law of Destruction +5
Semi-divine artifacts do not have any special attributes.
Let alone a semi-divine artifact, there isn't even a divine artifact. At the level of a demigod, fighting is a clash of divine power and laws.
The Skeleton Emperor is the largest skull on the Bone Throne.
Two black flames ignited in the sunken eyes of the skull and gradually rose.
All the bones on the ground gathered under the skull, quickly forming a super skull more than thirty meters tall.
He was engulfed in black flames, wielding a bone knife in his left hand and a bone staff in his right.
"Gaga...gagaga..."
It was unclear what the Skeleton Emperor wanted to say; his jaw twitched, and his teeth chattered, but Zhong Wuyai couldn't understand.
However, when Zhong Wuyai's attack landed, the black flames around the Skeleton Emperor formed a shield, blocking the attack.
It's really strange that the Law of Fire can be used like this... However, there's another aura, which seems to be the Law of Death.
His own Law of Destruction, combined with the Law of Water, the Law of Soul, and over four hundred units of divine power, were blocked by a Law Shield.
The Skeleton Emperor's laws are preliminarily judged to be very high, but it is unknown whether he possesses other laws.
Although the flames were blocked, they dimmed considerably.
Zhong Wuyai held the Codex of Annihilation, constantly manipulating the laws of annihilation and space.
It formed a dark gray, semi-transparent spatial blade, slashing towards the Skeleton Emperor.
The Skeleton Emperor's body trembled, and then split in two diagonally from his abdomen.
The lower body bones slowly disintegrated, and the black flames returned to the head.
"Gah... Gah gah~..."
Taking advantage of the momentum, Zhong Wuyai unleashed another spatial blade, condensing it into a sphere formed by the intersection of the three laws of water, fire, and lightning, which flew towards the Skeleton Emperor.
The Skeleton Emperor was completely severed from the head down, and a sphere flew into his eye socket...
"Boom boom boom~..."
The entire Bone Throne became extremely quiet.
"Thump~... Crack crack crack crack..."
The explosion caused by the collision of the three laws did not leave any mark on the giant skull; only the flames in the eye sockets were extinguished.
The entire giant skull was intact.
"So durable?"
Zhong Wuyai scanned the skull with his divine sense but didn't sense anything amiss. However, the skull was ridiculously hard.
The explosion of divine power and laws didn't even leave a scratch.
Something's wrong, something's very wrong...
Zhong Wuyai received no notification.
It seems the problem still lies with the skull.
Space Blade~! ...Useless...Frozen Hell...Forget it, it's like skipping stones.
The three laws of explosion... useless...
Zhong Wuyai pondered for a long time, then condensed the Law of Annihilation into a single mass, separated it with divine power, continued to envelop it with the Law of Water, and then separated it again with divine power from behind...
The Law of Wind... The Law of Fire... The Law of Thunder...
When Zhong Wuyai was about to use divine power to envelop the Law of Thunder, the Law of Thunder became unstable, and he had to quickly withdraw it.
Infuse the Law of Life... then the Law of Thunder... the Law of Creation... the Law of Space... the Law of Time... and finally... the Law of the Soul...
Controlling the situation with his divine sense became extremely difficult, and Zhong Wuyai's forehead began to sweat profusely...
This guy's at level 99 and still sweating? That's unbelievable...
The moment Zhong Wuyai threw the Law Ball onto the skull, he immediately used the Law of Space to teleport back a great distance.
"Boom~..."
Before the sound even reached him, Zhong Wuyai had already formed a shield around himself using divine power and the Law of Destruction.
I just learned this from the Skeleton Emperor, and it's pretty useful...
The giant skull shattered into pieces, gradually turning into fragments, and a ball of black light flickered...
"Thank you!"
In an instant, the black light ball entered Zhong Wuyai's Book of Destruction.
[Ding! Defeat the Skeleton Emperor and obtain 7 Fragments of the Law of Death]

"Holy crap... Wuya has become a god!"
"Level 100 is normal."
"The leaderboard is now dominated by Shen Youchu! Holy crap! Wasn't Wuya just level 100?"
"Perhaps he won't be on the list anymore after becoming a god."
"That's true. Even though he's a demigod, he's still different from us mortals."
Zhong Wuyai looked at his own panel.

The attributes can still be increased, but they won't have any effect.
When Zhong Wuyai returned to Emerald City, the Divine Furnace could no longer convert divine power.
You must enter the Tower of Babel; however, the Divine Furnace has an additional awakening function.
Zhong Wuyai looked at the Codex of Annihilation in his hand; it had already transformed into a Book of Laws.
[The Book of Laws: Destruction]
Semi-artifact
Divinity: 3
Law of Annihilation: 50
It consists of two very simple attributes, with no further explanation.
But this Law of Annihilation alone, at level 50, already far surpasses that of an ordinary demigod.
After opening all the treasure chests, Zhong Wuyai obtained a large amount of materials, equipment, and scrolls.
only……
"Respected demigod, I am afraid I am powerless to help."
The NPC had barely finished speaking when Zhong Wuyai also received a notification...
[Ding, operation failed. Demigod cannot use enhancement functions]
Zhong Wuyai could be forcibly strengthened using the laws of chaos.
But remembering what the mysterious man had told him, he held back.
If the fantasy world is really destroyed, what will happen to the hundreds of millions of Chinese people?
Besides, he couldn't bear to do that to Shen Mengli and Shen Youchu...
And those bastards at Xianyang Palace... I still have some feelings for them.
"Forget it, let's deal with it at the Tower of Babel."
However, the materials obtained are no longer useful. Apart from things related to laws and divine power, demigods are of little use.
The only useful items are equipment and scrolls.
The enhancement function is unusable by myself, but the enhancement reel is usable.
As for the experience scroll, Zhong Wuyai kept it all. He had an idea in mind, but he just couldn't test it here.
Finally, there's the guild totem.
Zhong Wuyai opened the totem and distributed all the points evenly.
He wasn't sure about the others, but he couldn't guarantee what might happen if Yin and Yang were in balance.
Yin Power: 40
Yang Power: 40
There's one more point that's not used yet; we'll add it later as needed, or we might not add it at all.
Gold Power: 12
Wood Power: 12
Earth Power: 12
Water Power: 12
Fire Power: 12
Azure Dragon Power: 4
Vermilion Bird Power: 4
White Tiger Power: 4
Xuanwu Power: 4
After adding points, Zhong Wuyai arrived at the Endless Sea, casually unleashing some skills and carefully using his divine sense to perceive the power of Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and the Four Symbols.
"This...is so strange..."
Zhong Wuyai opened the totem and found that all his trigrams were lit up, and the totem patterns disappeared.
This startled Zhong Wuyai.
They quickly adjusted the decorative panel.
But... it was completely useless.
The pattern disappeared immediately as soon as it was placed on the Bagua diagram.
Zhong Wuyai tried to use his divine sense to peel away the Bagua diagram, but as soon as he had this idea, the Bagua diagram disappeared.
"What's going on?"
Within Zhong Wuyai's soul, a Bagua diagram appeared, with Yin and Yang in the center.
The Five Elements are distributed within the Eight Trigrams.
The eyes of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise in the four directions flashed.
"Boss, what happened to the guild totem?"
"Holy crap... I had no idea until you told me, what's going on?"
Zhong Wuyai's message bar kept flashing, and I was a little puzzled when I opened it...
Their guild totem is gone? ...That means I just removed the Yin-Yang Five Elements Four Symbols Eight Trigrams diagram from the guild panel.
But isn't this way too easy...?
Zhong Wuyai will transfer the chairmanship to Shen Mengli.
"You design the totem, I've run into a problem here, I need to go into the Tower of Babel."
After saying that, Zhong Wuyai flew into the depths of the endless sea...
Zhong Wuyai flew in the opposite direction from Mingdeng Island, using the laws of wind and space, and was very fast.
The Night Raven was practically useless, so Zhong Wuyai released it.
However, what Zhong Wuyai didn't know was that this Night Demon Raven would later become an almost invincible existence in the fantasy world.
From a great distance, we could see the enormous divine and demonic defense tower, as well as the towering, cloud-piercing structure—the Tower of Babel.
Originally, the God and Demon Defense Tower was a feature only found in the Tower of Babel, but now Chang'an City also has it, making Chang'an City almost an impregnable main city.
Zhong Wuyai arrived at the Tower of Babel, but the tower gates were tightly closed. He could enter simply by channeling his divine power.
[Ding, enter the Tower of Babel? ...Warning: The Tower of Babel is isolated from the outside world, please prepare accordingly.]
"Yes!"
The first level of the Tower of Babel is a simple house-like building with only three doors.
In the center is the divine furnace.
However, this divine furnace is more like a real divine furnace, capable of converting all experience into divine power in one go.
Moreover, Zhong Wuyai also discovered that the Divine Furnace could accelerate the condensation of laws.
The most important thing is awakening. In the fantasy world, the Divine Furnace can only awaken level 100 semi-divine weapons, but here, any semi-divine or divine weapon can be awakened.
Zhong Wuyai summoned Keira, placed the Dream Conch Shell into the Divine Furnace, and clicked the Awakening button.
[Ding! Awakening requires 100 Divine Power Crystals. You do not have enough Divine Power Crystals. Awakening has failed.]
"Damn it... 100 divine power crystals, this is going to kill me."
The Dream Conch is a lower-level artifact, so it's understandable that it requires more divine power crystals. But what about the Book of Laws?
After Zhong Wuyai put the Book of Laws: Annihilation into the box, he breathed a sigh of relief when he was told that he needed 10 Divine Power Crystals.
However, I didn't confirm it. I only have 10 Divine Power Crystals now, and using them will take them all away.
There are three doors: the middle one leads to the second floor, and there are two doors on either side, one for divine power and the other for the abyss.
Just as Zhong Wuyai was struggling with which one to enter, a graceful figure emerged from his personal space.
Zhong Wuyai looked at the figure before him and felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen him before...
"Who are you……"
"I am Pala, the goddess of fortune. The supreme god commands you to reach the top of the Tower of Babel as soon as possible, but could you please return my statue to the Divine Realm first?"
"Oh, this..."
"I only have this one idol in this fantasy world. If you take it to the Tower of Babel, I won't be able to gain any faith..."
Starting with the intermediate gods, the primary source of power is faith, but this takes a very long time.
Another one is to devour the divine power of other gods.
However, the risks are also great; it's uncertain who will devour whom.
Pala was actually somewhat wary of Zhong Wuyai.
Having just become a demigod, yet possessing divine power approaching that of a lower-level god, this guy is definitely not simple. No wonder he's gained the favor of the supreme god. Although he doesn't know who that supreme god is…
Para was conflicted. She didn't know where that god came from, and she had never heard of such a god even after being a god for countless years.
As a mid-level god, I couldn't even muster the slightest thought of resistance in front of the main god.
However, this mysterious god is truly powerful. With just a pill made from a few herbs, he was able to reach the peak of the mid-level god and come very close to the high-level god.
If Para knew that Guan Xiangzi had fought a great battle with the avatar of the Creator God and had even defeated the Illusionary God Talanco without any chance of fighting back, she would definitely not dare to have any dealings with Guan Xiangzi.
"I can return the statue to you, but I've just entered the Tower of Babel and won't be returning to the Divine Realm for a while!"
"It's alright, I can control the idol to go back. You just need to put the idol on the ground."
To put it simply, you throw it on the ground, making the statue an ownerless object, allowing Pala to break free from the constraints of the world's laws and manipulate it. Otherwise, it simply can't move.
Zhong Wuyai didn't think much of it; the statue of Pala was actually not that useful to him.
It's just a bit of a pity. I should have left the statue in Xianyang Palace, or placed it in Chang'an City, so that it could give other people some temporary luck points.
Zhong Wuyai pondered for a moment. The mysterious person must be a main god. It's just that he hadn't been cleaned up despite causing so much trouble in the fantasy world.
So what kind of person is this main god? Could it be that he caused the disaster on Earth and sent everyone into the fantasy world?
However, this is unlikely. Putting aside everything else, since advancing to demigod, Zhong Wuyai has also gained an understanding of laws and divine power.
Perhaps due to his talent, he acquired laws and divine power very quickly, without even realizing it.
But compared to devouring level 99 players or demigod players, the laws and divine power they possess seem to be only somewhat useful to lower-level gods and mid-level gods.
I have over 400 divine power, but I'm still far from being a lower-level god.
The divine power and laws possessed by a level 99 player are at best something only a demigod could take notice of.
This might be true for Zhong Wuyai, but it's a different story for other gods.
Zhong Wuyai overlooked one point: equipment. He could enhance equipment to +110 and directly grant it divine power and laws.
Let alone the Tower of Babel, this is unimaginable even in the realm of gods.
Under normal circumstances, even high-level gods, let alone lower-level gods, would covet level 99 players. They might get very little from devouring them, but every little bit helps.
Compared to gradually developing faith, it's unknown how many years it would take to gain even a little divine power.
It would be much faster to devour it directly.
Zhong Wuyai's talent lies in extracting the essence of the world and channeling it into his equipment.
When you're at a low level, the power derived from the laws of the fantasy world can transform your equipment.
At higher levels, the laws of the world can also fill the gaps.
Once you reach level 90 or higher, any further extractions will directly yield the original essence.
In particular, the power of Yin and Yang was extracted in such large quantities at once that the entire fantasy world was thrown into chaos.
If Guan Xiangzi hadn't intervened in time to seal the gap in the magical world, it would have crumbled little by little.
Even now, the sealed area is recovering very slowly. This is only because the Creator God injected the divine essence into Taranco to repair it; otherwise, it probably wouldn't be able to be repaired at all.
Zhong Wuyai was unaware of these things, and therefore underestimated the significance of divine power and laws to the gods.
In the realm of gods, although the devouring of deities does occur because of the chief god and the god-king, it is rare and is always done in secret.
However, there are fewer concerns inside the Tower of Babel. The Illusionary God Talanco devours himself, so why would he care about other gods?
This time, however, the losses were unimaginable. Thousands of years of accumulation were almost completely wiped out, and a large amount of the original essence was lost for nothing.
Zhong Wuyai was preparing to go directly to the second floor, but the door couldn't be opened; he needed divine power crystals and divine power essence.
"What the hell is this divine essence?...Isn't it all a derivative of divine power?!"
Zhong Wuyai first opened the door on the left and entered a peculiar space.
To be precise, it's like a small world.
It was rather desolate, with no signs of life at all; not a single weed could be seen.
All that's left is dust and ruins.
The ruins are very similar to those of temples and shrines.
Zhong Wuyai scanned the ruins with his divine sense, and suddenly several strange-looking creatures jumped out.
"Flesh and blood...the taste of flesh and blood!"
Zhong Wuyai stared at the monster before him. It had no face, only one eye, a mouth split into three parts, four ears, and its body resembled a tumor...
【Flesh Bud Demon】
Abyss Demon Seed
Rating: 100
Divine Power: 35
Holy Attack: 40
Holy damage reduction: 4
The Law of Death: 47
Dark Laws: 36
How could a monster from the abyss appear here?
This is the Tower of Babel, the Tower of Babel that leads to the realm of the gods!
Zhong Wuyai was somewhat confused, but he didn't have time to think about it any longer and attacked directly.
This thing was probably captured specifically for those below to use in cultivating their divine power.
Space Blade!
The fleshy demon split in two, but it didn't die.
Zhong Wuyai channeled his divine power into the Book of Laws, mobilizing the Law of Annihilation to form a spear that attacked the Flesh Bud Demon.
It instantly turned to ashes, leaving behind a crystal of divine power and two fragments of laws on the ground.
Zhong Wuyai released his divine sense to capture the dissipated divine power of the Flesh Bud Demon, gradually condensing and refining it into his own power.
That's strange. Why can't you just catch this thing and absorb it yourself? Why do you have to make the player absorb it and then devour it?
Zhong Wuyai couldn't understand what the person who designed the Tower of Babel was thinking.
But right now, improving our strength is the most important thing. Let's keep searching!
There were quite a few fleshy sprout demons, but Zhong Wuyai only discovered a type of monster called the Great Stone Demon halfway through.
It doesn't possess much divine power, but its laws are terrifyingly strong.
It's possible that the Great Stone Demon Seed has some mental issues because its divine power is too low.
They have almost no ability to think; they just attack relentlessly.
The 50 points of Earth Law and the 20 points of Death Law caused Zhong Wuyai considerable trouble.
Even just mobilizing the power of the laws to condense the shield consumed a considerable amount of divine power.
The frequent use of divine sense also made Zhong Wuyai feel exhausted.
After dealing with the giant stone demon, Zhong Wuyai had no choice but to find a safe place to rest.
This is the first floor of the Tower of Babel. We came in through a door, but looking back after entering, there is no door at all.
There are spatial rifts in the ruins; you can only return to the hall by injecting divine power into them.
After groping around for a while, Zhong Wuyai returned to the main hall on the first floor of the Tower of Babel through the crack and plopped down on the floor.
Now that he's alone in the Tower of Babel, he doesn't need to worry about safety or anything like that.
I don't need to sleep, but I do need to absorb divine essence to restore my mental energy, otherwise I might really faint.
On the top floor... Guan Xiangzi smiled as he looked at Zhong Wuyai.
Why not just forcefully break down the gate using Yin-Yang and Five Elements instead of fighting your way up layer by layer?
However, Guan Xiangzi did not intervene. It would be good for Zhong Wuyai to go and get familiar with things, so that he wouldn't be caught off guard when he went to the God Realm.
