Chapter 81: The Power of Illusion
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The New Excellence Tower’s history rankings only displayed Xia country’s geniuses.
However, at this moment, Xia country was not the only force paying attention to this list.
On the entire Blue Planet, any faction with a little bit of power would remember a name tonight—Black Earth!
“Black Earth has already cleared the 89th floor and is now challenging the 90th floor!”
“More than a minute has passed since this challenge, but there’s still no winner!”
!!
“This is normal. The difficulty of the New Talent Tower will soar every ten floors! The 90th floor is much more difficult than the 89th floor!”
“The opponent on the 89th floor is only at the late-stage of the fourth rank. From the 90th floor onwards, he will be at the peak of the fourth rank!”
“I wonder if Black Earth can successfully pass the 90th floor!”
“I think it’s very difficult! If he can really clear it, then I’m afraid no one will ever be able to break the record left by Black Earth!”
“Not only can an opponent at the peak of the fourth rank completely control the power of his internal organs, blood flow, and bone marrow, but his entire body’s strength can also perfectly dominate and become one! Even if Black Earth really passed, he must have reached his limit. It’s impossible for him to go far in the future!”
… .
Because no one could see Black Earth clearing the level in the New Talent Tower, everyone could only speculate.
More than half of the people thought that Black Earth should be falling on the 90th floor!
Even those who were optimistic about Black Earth felt that he had already reached his limit and could only challenge one or two more levels at most.
Moreover, Black Earth’s clearing speed was actually very telling—in the first 89 floors, Black Earth was unstoppable. Now, from the first to the 90th floor, he was stuck!
It was obvious that Black Earth was at the end of his rope.
On various forums, live-stream platforms, and short video platforms, voices calling for “Black Earth” fall began to appear.
“I thought Black Earth would always be unstoppable! So his limit is the 90th floor!”
“From the looks of it, Black Earth should be struggling in the 90th floor! His combat technique is most likely only at the late-stage of the fourth rank. His entire body’s strength is not perfectly unified!”
A netizen named “Little Yu” even shouted rudely, “If Black Earth can pass the 90th floor, I’ll live-stream myself eating sh*t! I’ll eat 500 grams!”
“Hiss—what a ruthless person!”
“Is one pound enough for you?”
“What if Black Earth passes the ninety-first floor?”
After receiving the attention of many netizens, Little Yu was immediately in a good mood. He deliberately shouted that he wanted to “live stream eating sh*t”. Wasn’t it to attract attention and gain popularity?
In order to grasp this wave of popularity, Little Yu spouted nonsense again. “If he can really pass more than the 91st floor, I’ll eat an extra kilogram for every additional floor!”
“Damn! That’s ruthless!”
“He’s really ruthless! I’ll follow first!”
“No one can live without faith! Don’t just say and not eat!”
“Everyone, let’s leave! As if I’ll believe him! This ‘Little Yu’ is a habitual offender! The last time Black Earth won a winning streak in the novice training field, he said that he wanted to broadcast himself eating sh*t. He hasn’t eaten it yet!”
At that moment—
Everyone saw that on the New Talent Tower’s history rankings, the number of floors after Black Earth’s name jumped from the 89th to the 90th floor!
90th floor, pass!
“Where’s Little Yu? Why aren’t you talking?”
“What happened to live-streaming eating shit? Don’t tell me you’re going to renege on it again?”
“Brothers, does anyone know Little Yu’s address? Let’s rush over and force feed him!”
“Agreed!”
“I think I know this Little Yu! I’ll lead the way. Everyone, follow me!”
… .
In the New Talent Tower.
Lin Mo stood on the empty 90th floor. His opponent had fallen.
“I didn’t expect this 90th floor to really be so challenging!” Lin Mo couldn’t help but mutter to himself.
The opponent on the 90th floor had indeed reached the peak of the fourth rank.
Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be difficult for Lin Mo to win against someone at the peak of the fourth rank! After all, Lin Mo’s combat wisdom was extremely high!
The problem was that Lin Mo had forgotten to bring his weapon when he activated the New Talent Tower’s challenge mode yesterday! He had relied on his fists to kill his way over!
When the first few floors were low and the opponents were weak, it was relatively easy to deal with them.
Even when he reached the 80th floor and his opponent had already reached the late-stage of the fourth rank, Lin Mo could still rely on his combat technique and intelligence to finish his opponent in a few punches, so his speed of clearing the level was still very fast!
But on the 90th floor, the advantage in combat technique became very small! More importantly… Lin Mo was unarmed, while his opponent was holding a weapon!
His opponent on the 90th floor was a saberman, and he was using two sabers!
As long as Lin Mo got a little closer, the swordsman would use the blades of his two blades to form a protective circle around him. How could he break through the defense formed by the blades with his bare hands?
‘Very difficult!’
Lin Mo was also in a stalemate for a full three to five minutes before he caught a rare flaw. He decisively flashed forward, snatched the saber, and killed the saberman!
“This New Talent Tower tests combat technique!” Lin Mo shook his head. “I didn’t want to use ‘illusion’ at first and wanted to purely rely on combat technique to break through, but I really forgot to bring my weapon… Forget it, I’ll use illusion from the 91st floor! That way, it’ll be easier to break through!”
Lin Mo had just learned illusion today!
Moreover, with his already powerful mental strength, he became a third-rank illusionist and even learned the three basic secret techniques of illusionists!
Lin Mo did not think that there was anything wrong with using illusions. If I have the ability to use illusions, you guys can use them too!
“Moreover, from the 90th floor onwards, I will be rewarded with 5 Primordial Universe Points for every level I pass!”
Five Primordial Universe Points meant five million!
‘Only a fool wouldn’t want it!’
On the contrary, if he lost because he did not use an illusion technique, Lin Mo would probably die of heartache!
‘It’s all money!’
“Enter the 91st floor!”
Lin Mo rested for about ten seconds before entering the 91st floor.
His opponent on the 91st floor was a white-haired sword immortal. He was undoubtedly stronger!
However, it was useless!
As soon as Lin Mo saw him, he quickly approached his opponent and threw out an “Illusion Technique”.
The sword immortal froze, his eyes becoming confused.
Although this trace of confusion only existed for less than half a second… when experts fought, not to mention half a second, even 0.1 seconds was enough to be fatal!
By the time the sword immortal broke free from the illusion technique and regained his senses, Lin Mo had already blown up his head.
“Illusion is indeed powerful!” Lin Mo’s eyes were filled with surprise.
Actually, third-rank illusionists were not very strong. For example, this sword immortal broke free from the illusion in less than half a second. However, Lin Mo was not only a third-rank illusionist, but he also had the combat technique of the peak of the fourth rank!
“Keep going! Next floor!”
Lin Mo walked towards the 92nd floor again!
He was still unstoppable!
Immediately after was the 93rd floor!
94th floor!
95th floor!
On each floor, Lin Mo spent no more than half a minute.
Soon, he arrived at the 100th floor!
