Chapter 51: The Power of the Sovereign

Just at this moment, the entire Secret Realm Tower suddenly began to shake violently.

The shaking lasted for a full several seconds before it stopped.

And this pulled Zhou Chu, who had been lost in thought, back to reality.

Since Gadi was dead, but that Calamity Source Seed which had not yet been destroyed, he did not know where he had put it.

Zhou Chu immediately searched the top of the tower in a circle, but did not discover any trace of the Calamity Source Seed.

Clearly, this thing must have been moved by Gadi to another place.

And Gadi was currently undergoing the reshaping of the Hero Tomb, so it was impossible to get an answer from his mouth in the short term.

【Successfully cleared the 30th floor of Hell Difficulty, time taken 12 minutes, obtained points.】

【Your cumulative points have reached points.】

Just at this moment, the Secret Realm Tower's clearance notification arrived late.

Zhou Chu had some more points credited to his account.

Although he had spent some time sparring with Gadi, he still obtained the full point reward.

This was just too satisfying!

At the same time, a beam of light projected from above onto the ground not far away, forming a teleportation portal.

By going out from here, one could directly exit the tower.

Since he had earned enough points, it was time to proceed with the Soul Profession advancement.

Then, by using points to exchange for Experience Stone, he could continue to level up and open the next stage of the path to leveling up.

……

And the shaking caused by the Secret Realm Tower also caused a flurry of panic throughout the Monitoring Hall.

For the Secret Realm Tower to have such a tremor, it must have been caused by an external force invading.

It was estimated that very soon, a large number of Calamity monsters would break out of the tower.

The situation was becoming increasingly critical.

"How is the evacuation of the tower-climbing personnel going? Who is still left in the tower?"

Liu Lanzhi tried her best to keep herself calm, but the tone of her voice still revealed a trace of panic.

"Director, the tower-climbing personnel have almost all evacuated. But according to the monitoring signals, there are currently two people left inside the tower."

"One is Qin Ye from Tianhua No. 2 High School, who is currently on the 11th floor. The other is Zhou Chu from Tianhua No. 1 High School, who is on... the top floor..."

A staff member quickly reported the information that had been collected.

Upon hearing that there were still two people inside the tower, Liu Lanzhi's face turned somewhat pale, and she hurriedly ordered: "Quickly find a way to contact them and tell them to come out immediately!"

The staff member looked troubled: "Director, we have no way to contact them; the signal interference inside the tower is too severe."

"What is this kid spacing out for? It's already an emergency, why doesn't he hurry up and run for his life? Does he want to become food for the Calamity monsters?"

At this time, Luo Dachun was anxiously watching the big screen while constantly stomping his feet, burning with impatience.

"Have the City Defense Army all arrived? Has the Defense Array been set up?" Liu Lanzhi then asked loudly again.

The staff member immediately nodded and replied: "The City Defense Army has all arrived, and the Defense Array has also been set up."

"Moreover, City Lord Xing has also arrived at the scene at the first opportunity to personally oversee the defense and resistance work against the invasion."

Upon hearing that City Lord Xing Mochuan was personally suppressing the situation, the tension in Liu Lanzhi's heart relaxed slightly, and the panicked expression on her face eased quite a bit.

……

Secret Realm Tower Hell Difficulty 11th floor.

Several hungry walking corpses let out hisses under the burning of the flames.

But there were still a large number of walking corpses desperately breaking through the obstruction of the Fire Wall Technique, covered in flames, crazily pouncing toward Qin Ye.

At this moment, Qin Ye's forehead was covered in sweat, and his Soul Power Value was about to be exhausted.

He retreated again and again while releasing one Fire Wall Technique after another, attempting to block those crazily pouncing hungry walking corpses.

"Why are there more monsters the more I kill?" Qin Ye complained inwardly.

At this rate, he wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

The Secret Realm Tower's Hell Difficulty was simply beyond his imagination.

The strength of the monsters and the number of monsters were definitely not something the normal difficulty could compare to.

This time, relying on agility, positioning, and precise spell control, Qin Ye's tower-climbing speed had improved somewhat compared to the first time.

Therefore, he had the intention to challenge the Hell Difficulty.

Only by earning enough points could he allow his strength to improve rapidly.

Only by becoming stronger could he make those eyesores disappear forever!

However, the situation before his eyes did not look optimistic, almost exactly the same as what he had encountered in the Hero Instance earlier.

It was even worse than the Hero Instance.

This also deepened the sense of frustration in Qin Ye's heart by a few degrees.

Just as Qin Ye was struggling to hold on, he suddenly saw a phantom image with a transparent texture flicker a few times in front of him.

Qin Ye shook his head and blinked his eyes fiercely a few times.

He thought it was a hallucination caused by his excessive consumption of Soul Power.

And those walking corpses that had originally been swarming toward him crazily suddenly stopped in their tracks for no reason, and their frantic agitation came to an abrupt end.

It was as if Qin Ye had suddenly vanished into thin air, and their hatred had been lost instantly.

The next moment, that transparent phantom image burst open like a bubble, and a crystal emitting a faint light slowly floated before his eyes.

The surface of the crystal looked mottled and dilapidated, with cracks spreading all over its body like capillaries.

But Qin Ye could clearly feel that a powerful energy was currently being continuously emitted from this Crystal.

However, this power was filled with the aura of Calamity, making one involuntarily feel fear and awe.

It was precisely its appearance that caused those monsters, which had been restless and uneasy, to instantly become quiet.

"Mortal, I can feel the anger and desire within your heart."

"Do you want to become stronger? Do you want to possess supreme power? Do you want to dominate everything in this world?"

A voice emanated from the Crystal, resounding in Qin Ye's ears.

"Supreme power? Dominate everything?"

Hearing this voice, Qin Ye was stunned for a moment.

His eyes revealed a trace of hesitation, but even more so, a craving for power.

At this moment, before his eyes, the voice and smile of He Muxue played continuously like a slideshow.

This could not help but cause a happy smile to ripple across Qin Ye's face.

But very quickly, the image flashed, and Zhou Chu and Chen Bo suddenly appeared before his eyes.

The expression on Qin Ye's face instantly changed from happy to disgusted.

Even angry!

"I do! I dream of it!"

Qin Ye clenched his fists tightly, and the fire of jealousy and unwilling anger began to burn violently within his body.

"Then sacrifice your soul! You will possess this power!"

"What are you still hesitating for?"

The voice flashed clearly into Qin Ye's mind once again.

Qin Ye then reached out a hand and grasped the Crystal in his palm.

The moment Qin Ye gripped the Crystal, a cold and evil power spread along his arm.

"Human, congratulations on making the correct choice," the voice in the Crystal said triumphantly.

Qin Ye only felt his Soul Power begin to disorder under the impact of this force, but at the same time, his power was also rapidly climbing.

His nearly exhausted Soul Power Value began to recover quickly, and even the wounds on his body were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a few short seconds, that strange Crystal merged into one with his body.

"This... this is the power to dominate." Qin Ye felt the energy constantly flowing through his body, his eyes flashing with an excited and crazy light.

The next moment, Qin Ye waved his hand lightly in front of him, and streaks of scorching black flames gushed out continuously, instantly turning those dazed walking corpses into ashes.

Seeing the masterpiece before him, Qin Ye's handsome face became incomparably ferocious, and thick Calamity Qi continuously emanated from his body.

"Zhou Chu, Chen Bo, just you wait, I will let you know what true strength is!" Qin Ye said viciously.

Subsequently, his figure was gradually enveloped by a layer of black light, and he disappeared from the 11th floor.

At the same time, the entire Secret Realm Tower returned to tranquility.
