Chapter 927: Trial Rules! Entering the Seventh Layer!

~6 min read 1,079 words

“Noah Civilization? Has there ever been such a civilization in history?”

“The 1031st trial? The time span of this civilization must be extraordinarily long.”

“The seventh layer of the Breakthrough Tower is finally about to open!”

“......”

When the majestic voice echoed from the sky.

The psychics around the endpoint immediately showed shocked expressions, whispering to each other in curiosity.

“Eva, do you have any data on this civilization in your database?”

Xu Jingming asked softly, his eyes flickering.

“No, it’s likely an unknown civilization.

We’re bound to gain a great deal from this civilization!”

Eva’s crisp voice emerged from her smart bracer, tinged with faint excitement.

For her, nothing was more thrilling than exploring a completely new civilization.

“An unknown civilization......”

Xu Jingming felt a trace of regret.

If they had known the records of the Noah Civilization, they might have understood the origins of those beast monsters.

But as Eva said, an unknown civilization would surely yield tremendous rewards.

“Two hundred years ago, Yuan Energy revived, and beast monsters invaded.

Our ancestors discovered the ruins of the Second Civilization beneath the earth.

They acquired vast quantities of combat techniques and technological legacies, and psychics’ power soared overnight.

Otherwise, humanity might not have survived the initial onslaught of the beast monsters.”

Su Qingli spoke softly, her beautiful eyes glinting faintly: “This unknown Noah Civilization—what will it bring us?”

The value of an unknown civilization wasn’t just clear to Su Qingli; all other psychics understood it too, their faces lighting up with excitement.

Some high-ranking ninth-tier psychics, already close to the endpoint, immediately took to the air.

As soon as the passage to the seventh layer opened, they would rush in.

“All who entered the sixth layer of the trial tower will be assigned a serial number in order of entry; this number represents your identity for ranking purposes.”

The majestic voice continued from the sky.

A massive leaderboard slowly coalesced in the air.

It was densely packed with rows of peculiar symbolic script.

“Rank One, No. 1, Void Stone: 0

Rank Two, No. 2, Void Stone: 0

Rank Three, No. 3, Void Stone: 0

Rank Four......”

The script on the leaderboard was highly unusual.

It belonged to no nation on Blue Star, nor to the prophecies of the Second Civilization.

Yet everyone, including Xu Jingming, understood it perfectly.

“Your serial number is No. 344!”

Suddenly—

A majestic voice resonated in Xu Jingming’s mind.

“What is this?”

Xu Jingming’s heart leapt; beside him, Su Qingli’s expression turned startled.

“Teacher, did you hear that too?” Xu Jingming asked.

“Yes, my serial number is No. 345. What’s yours?”

Su Qingli nodded slightly.

“No. 344,” Xu Jingming replied. “This must be the serial number we received upon entering the sixth layer.”

In the previous five layers, though he had spent considerable time hunting beast monsters,

his and Su Qingli’s flight speed was far beyond that of ordinary psychics.

Entering the sixth layer around the three-hundred-fiftieth position was reasonable.

“Incredible technique—others must have received the same notification.”

Su Qingli murmured in admiration.

Mental transmission demanded extremely high mental strength.

Even she could only transmit to psychics within a one-kilometer radius.

But just now, that mental transmission clearly covered over ten kilometers—perhaps the entire sixth layer.

And it wasn’t one-to-one; it was one-to-thirty-thousand!

Such a technique could only be mastered by the supreme strong one.

“This trial ranks participants by the number of Void Stones collected.

Void Stones can be obtained in each subsequent layer.

When you reach the highest layer, you may exchange Void Stones for rewards.

The top one hundred will receive additional special rewards.”

The majestic voice spoke again: “Once the trial begins, you cannot leave.

The trial tower will no longer open exit passages for any subsequent layer.

Also, be warned: subsequent trials contain numerous powerful beast monsters and Void beings—choose your path carefully.”

Hum—

With a soft hum,

a pitch-black teleportation portal suddenly formed at the end of the sixth layer.

Its dark color stood in stark contrast to the white exit portal beside it.

“What? No exit passage after this? If we can’t leave, won’t we be trapped here?”

“Damn it, the later layers of this Breakthrough Tower must be deadly!”

“An unknown civilization! I really want to keep exploring, but I value my life too much.”

“Forget it. The sixth layer has plenty of good loot—I won’t go further to the seventh.”

“......”

Not everyone was willing to take the risk.

Especially since all psychics entering the sixth layer were at least sixth-tier.

They had entered the Breakthrough Tower for luck; upon hearing there would be no exit, many chose to leave.

In an instant, nearly a third of the psychics gathered near the endpoint vanished.

“Jingming, should we go in?” Su Qingli asked softly.

“Yes.”

Xu Jingming didn’t hesitate—he nodded immediately.

Though many psychics entered the Breakthrough Tower, those stronger than him were likely fewer than fifty!

With the Space Beast Bone in hand, even if he couldn’t defeat them, he could escape!

Though many beast monsters still remained in the sixth layer’s space, killing a few more days would clear them out.

Double the psychic points!

Once you’ve experienced it once, you won’t easily give it up.

“Alright, I’ll follow you.”

Su Qingli’s gaze sharpened slightly, answering instinctively.

If Xu Jingming didn’t go, she probably wouldn’t continue either...

“A bunch of cowards! Scared off already?

You want to climb to the peak and become a supreme strong one? Dream on!

I’m heading to the great treasure vault of this civilization first!”

A bold laugh rang out.

Amid swirling crimson-gold flames, Allen and his followers stepped first into the black teleportation portal.

Undeniably, this SSS-rank flame psychic of the Aurora Tier possessed real courage—no hesitation at all.

“All Xia psychics, gather here! We’ll proceed into the seventh layer together and decide our next move based on conditions.”

A loud Xia voice suddenly rang out.

It was Blood Sword, along with several other Xia ninth-tier councilors.

They were consolidating forces, gathering all Xia psychics into one group.

This way, losses in the coming trials would be minimized.

Not just Xia—many other Blue Star nations adopted the same strategy.

On the Ember World side, the Ember Temple, the Lei Ding family, and the Es family also began forming alliances.

Xu Jingming chose not to join Blood Sword’s group.

His and Su Qingli’s strength was sufficient for self-preservation—they charged straight into the black teleportation portal to the seventh layer.
