Chapter 374

"Ding, one challenger has successfully defeated the boss on the current floor, activating the guardian challenge for the 500th layer. Proceed with challenge?"

……

Luo Chenyu thought for a moment, then decided against it.

He had previously entered the guardian challenge space for every hundredth floor, and knew it was far beyond his current strength.

After declining.

He arrived at the 501st Layer of the 【Tower of Gods】, waiting for monsters to respawn.

And at this moment.

Luo Chenyu opened his spatial backpack to check the item that had surprised him: 【Life·Divine Crystal】!

A divine artifact for skill awakening!

Yet… he searched through everything, but couldn't find 【Life·Divine Crystal】!

"…"

Luo Chenyu was speechless—definitely another skill had stealthily taken it without asking.

As expected.

【Protection of the Life Goddess】 had already entered its awakening state, requiring 30 minutes to complete.

During this time.

Only passive effects were active; active effects could no longer be used.

With no choice.

Luo Chenyu continued grinding monsters.

When the monsters of the 501st Layer appeared, Luo Chenyu immediately frowned.

The strength was extremely high!

All minor monsters had become elite monsters, with greatly enhanced stats.

Most importantly…

Another effect had appeared.

【Special】: Every attack guarantees a critical strike, triples critical damage, and increases damage to shields by tenfold!

"This is way too targeted!"

Just charge in!

After all, no matter what, they couldn't threaten him—he'd only lose some shield value.

The 501st Layer had a total of 81 elite monsters.

When the countdown ended, all elite monsters surged forward as if intent on tearing Luo Chenyu apart.

Fierce, bloodthirsty!

"Nonsense!"

Luo Chenyu chuckled, leapt into the air, and dove down with 【Barbaric Charge】.

Boom!

Boom!

Almost every two normal attacks could kill five or six elite monsters—efficiency remained high.

Within minutes, all elite monsters were eliminated.

"Ding, you have slain the 【Tower of Gods】 501st Layer elite monster 【Blood Demon Giant Lizard】, gaining 220,000 experience points!"

"Ding, …"

"Ding, you have successfully cleared the 501st Layer of the 【Tower of Gods】, gaining +1 【God·Skill Power】!"

……

【God·Skill Power】

Quality: SSS Rank

Type: Special Items

Effect: After use, you may designate a skill to increase its strength, with a chance to raise its level and gain corresponding skill insight.

Hidden Info: Master, I want it!!

…………

Luo Chenyu: "…"

Damn!

The "Hidden Info" of 【Insight Eye】 could be used like this?!

Learned something new!

But since 【Insight Eye】 had asked, he couldn't refuse.

After all, 【Insight Eye】's auxiliary effects on him were truly powerful—if he could let it evolve slightly, perhaps someday he could view semi-god attributes.

So…

This time there was no "backstabber"—he directly selected 【Insight Eye】 to use.

【Prompt: Your special ability 【Insight Eye】 has absorbed 【God·Skill Power】. Skill effect enhanced!】

Luo Chenyu opened his skill panel to check the enhancement.

【Insight Eye】: Passive mutated skill, can view all information of Tier 9 and below, always displays hidden info, probabilistically displays High Tiers, no cooldown, cannot be detected by targets.

Additional Effect: Primary Long Wei, active effect, reduces all attributes (including High Tiers) of targets within range by 20%, and inflicts "confusion," "flight," "terror," etc., lasting 60 seconds, cooldown 300 seconds.

Hidden Info: Master, give me five more 【God·Skill Power】, and I can advance!

……

Luo Chenyu: "……"

Why hadn't he noticed before that 【Insight Eye】 had this kind of ability?

Stunned!

But… five 【Gods · Skill Power】 — wonder if they're easy to obtain!

"Let's go try first!"

………………

The 502nd floor, just like the 501st, no longer rewarded experience points, but began rewarding Special Items.

On this floor, he obtained another kind of Special Item.

【Tier 9 Power Gem】!

To this day, he hadn't gotten many gems — nowhere near enough to socket all his gear.

He hadn't expected 【Gods Tower】 to also drop gems, and Tier 9 ones at that.

As he pushed forward floor by floor.

All manner of Special Items appeared before his eyes.

Even a complete 【Gods' Blessing】 appeared!

"No wonder Man… Jin Yuan wanted to try breaking through the five-hundredth floor — these rewards are just too tempting!"

……

Luo Chenyu didn't wait for the sixth 【Gods · Skill Power】 to appear; instead, he waited for the awakening success of 【Life Goddess's Sanctuary】!

In his mind……

A crisp female voice came through: "Master, thank you!"
