If only the sky wasn't glowing with a green light, he'd have thought it was a normal place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he surveyed his surroundings, the wind howled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian turned around and saw the phantom of a young man being condensed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tower of Trials had only six floors, corresponding to six levels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Varian's highest level was 4, he directly entered fourth floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For each floor, the tower would store the information of top 1000 candidates of said level of the year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That meant, Varian would be facing the 1000th strongest Level 4.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one could defeat the phantom, they'd replace the its ranking, becoming the new 1000th.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right after being condensed, the phantom launched a lighting bolt at Varian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the attack from a Low Level 4.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian didn't? care and teleported right behind the phantom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He covered his fist in lightning mana and blasted the phantom's head to pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wriggle!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, it disappeared and aura from the surroundings flowed into Varian's body. There was also a pale green light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he was exhausted, he could recover his aura. If he was injured, he could also heal himself quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Click when you want to start the next round.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A line of text floated in front of Varian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boo, this is an expanded space, right?\" Varian glanced at the seemingly endless space and enquired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, master. Each person entering the tower would be transferred to a separate space.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As expected from Devas. I don't know how strong they were.\" Varian sighed in marvel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devas were the civilization that existed before humans. For unknowns reasons, they went extinct. Even their legacies vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only after Blink, with the resurgence of Aura that the remnants of Devas were discovered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were called Ruins. They were a separate world altogether and contained every treasure one could dream of. And more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tower of Trials couldn't be made by humans. It was made by Devas thousands of years ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Boo, who was from a higher civilization, lost many of its capabilities after 500 years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The treasures it had, like the formations also devolved in a period of 500 years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this Sovereign Treasure showed no sign of degradation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian shook his head and clicked on the screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tower evaluated his strength from his first fight and picked a suitable opponent for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or who the heck would fight thousand people to get to rank one?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Rank 490, Mid Level 4.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian looked at the female phantom. It was now more solid and looked like a real person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She disappeared and as Varian was about to turn around, he felt the space around him solidify.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. It wasn't merely solidifying. It was strangling him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The space was literally tightening on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian spread his space sense and caught the female phantom raising her fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She covered herself in Space Armor and the damage of her kick would be equivalent to a Level 4 Body Awakener.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph!\" Varian used his space power to loosen the strangle on his neck and with physical strength, broke the strangle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponent saw him escape and was about to teleport, but before she could, Varian solidified the space around her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She quickly broke it with her own space power. But what awaited next was a lightning bolt that pushed her back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Varian's kick in the chest broke her heart, literally and killed her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The phantom turned into a stream of light and disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Click when you want to start the next round.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The screen appeared again and Varian didn't want to wait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Rank 100: Level 4 High]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian looked around and saw mountains, streams and lush plains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But not the phantom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Usually, the phantom would appear in the most favorable place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So if it was hidden, then…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian suddenly clutched his head. It seemed like everything inside his head was pricked by needles and cut by knives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sweat quickly rolled down his forehead and Varian gritted his teeth as he felt the pain pile up bit by bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Level 4 Mind Awakener, no, a Level 4 Telepath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They messed with the minds of others and if one was mentally weak, they could easily bring down an awakener of the same level to knees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian bore the pain and teleported out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pain vanished for a moment before it resumed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mind Awakeners were a pain in the mind. They had mental sense and their range of sensing was higher compared to any other path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Level 4, Mind Awakeners picked either Telepath or Telekinetic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since this guy was a Telepath, despite his overwhelming offense, he had the same weakness every Telepath had.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Extremely low physical defense. Even their other physical stats were only slighter better than unawakened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So one hit and they'd be over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why Mind Awakeners usually activated from a very remote location.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the higher the level, the more mental attacks other divine paths could bear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, he had to end this guy before he fainted from pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian continued to teleport and due to the break, it took the other party a second to continue to his attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian spread his thunder sense, and space sense, trying to find the traces of telepath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Concentrating on his hearing to find the other party's breathing was just too tough with all the pain in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What's more, this was his first mind facing this much pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Despair Abyss Queen's clone was also a mind awakener and she too attacked his mind, but the conditions then were heavily tilted in his favor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was merely a few dozen meters away and stood in the open. For any mental awakener, that was a taboo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Varian ended easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, \"Damn, this guy. I'll need more practice to take on telepaths. Even having multiple paths seems use—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's multiple paths were always his strength. Even now when he couldn't use his physical senses properly, he was relying on Space and Lightning Sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that was all there to it, he was still in trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, I forgot! System, lift my Morpher Path.\" Varian hurriedly instructed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Generally when going out, Varian kept only three paths active.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the worst case his powers were revealed, he'd still be a Triple Awakener, which was in the realm of possibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if he revealed four divine paths…that'd be end of his road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, now that he was in the tower, Varian didn't care anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Morpher Path lifted]\u003C\u002Fp>",1088,"2026-06-06T07:58:11.288Z",1,"novelbin.me","64ff653df046c136cba58a06f30da4c6fb54dd2dd17c9799c823fcafb0107d19","divine-path-system-chapter-133","divine-path-system-chapter-132",1773,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdivine-path-system-cover.jpg"]
