Chapter 262
Therefore, even though Lu Li had reached the limit of the King Realm, the Nine-Star King, he was still just a King.
If he couldn't even see through Lu Li's level, then his Northern Region Lord title would have quite a bit of water in it.
But it was such a Nine-Star King who, after the Supreme, successfully conquered the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, which even they, the Immortals and Immortals, couldn't conquer back then.
Not only Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing, but Li Wei and Tan Huan, who were one step behind, also saw Lu Li's level now.
Breaking through the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower with the strength of the King Realm, the gold content of this was much fuller than Ku Ku Zimo rushing to the 90th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower!
Or rather, the gold content of Lu Li conquering the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower far exceeded Ku Ku Zimo's, and there was no comparison between the two.
If one had to compare the two, it would undoubtedly be gilding Ku Ku Zimo's face. Even Li Wei or Tan Huan had no way to refute this.
Originally, both Li Wei and Tan Huan had secretly guessed before this whether Lu Li, like Ku Ku Zimo, had successfully conquered the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower by exploiting a loophole in the Heaven-Reaching Tower.
Although this loophole in the Heaven-Reaching Tower hadn't been leaked outside the Northern Region, it didn't mean that non-Northern Region Magic Card Masters couldn't do it.
Who knows, maybe a Magic Card Master who entered the Heaven-Reaching Tower just happened to meet this loophole and used it?
And this was also the guess they both thought was closest to reality.
But even so, it still showed that Lu Li's strength was stronger than Ku Ku Zimo's.
After all, both exploited the loophole of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, but Lu Li could conquer the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, while Ku Ku Zimo could only stop at the 90th floor.
But now, the facts seemed not to be as they guessed; instead, it was even more outrageous than they thought.
Lu Li was still in the King Realm; even if he was a Nine-Star King, he was still a King.
In other words, Lu Li didn't exploit the loophole of the Heaven-Reaching Tower; he conquered the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower in a normal state.
493. This scene is so familiar!
Even if Li Wei and Tan Huan racked their brains, they couldn't think that Lu Li actually didn't exploit the loophole of the Heaven-Reaching Tower!
They couldn't understand how Lu Li conquered the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower under such circumstances. Because if it were them, they wouldn't have been able to achieve this step back then either.
And such a result further widened the gap between Lu Li and Ku Ku Zimo.
Thinking of Ku Ku Zimo's performance not long ago, the expressions of the two Frost Capital Lord and Frost Capital Magic Card Association President couldn't help but become complicated.
After all, although Ku Ku Zimo rushed to the 90th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, he actually achieved this step by exploiting the loophole of the Heaven-Reaching Tower through a temporary breakthrough.
If Ku Ku Zimo hadn't successfully broken through to the Emperor Realm in the Heaven-Reaching Tower, then with his original King Realm strength, Ku Ku Zimo might not have been able to go so far.
In general, Ku Ku Zimo's talent was probably about the same as Li Wei and Tan Huan's, and even Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing, the Northern Region Lord, couldn't compare, and there was no comparison with Lu Li at all.
Just from this point, the gap between Ku Ku Zimo and Lu Li was much larger than imagined.
It was probably very slim for Ku Ku Zimo to catch up to Lu Li and bridge the gap between them.
At this moment, both Li Wei and Tan Huan had such a thought in their hearts, and at the same Finish Finish Time, they couldn't help but become depressed again.
Such a genius was actually not a Magic Card Master from their Northern Region. It was really cheap for the Eastern Region. How come the Eastern Region got all the good things!
Compared to the depression of Li Wei and Tan Huan, Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing thought much more.
When the Supreme sought him out back then, he not only instructed Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing but also provided him with some information.
One of them was that back then, the Supreme had conquered the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower as an Emperor!
Emperor and King, although only a difference of one realm, in fact, only when one reaches this level will one understand that Emperors can use more complex and numerous means than Kings.
Even if the test of the Heaven-Reaching Tower changes according to the strength of the challenger when they enter, the gap between 30% combat power and 60% combat power is obvious.
Even for some special Magic Card Spirits, this 30% combat power gap is a chasm.
It is possible that this 30% gap is enough to split a Magic Card into two extremes.
And such a gap will also be synchronously fed back to the Magic Card Master who synchronizes with the Magic Card Spirit source.
Perhaps it is this gap that eventually allows the Magic Card Master to successfully climb a few more floors in the Heaven-Reaching Tower.
After so many sessions of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, this has also become a universal phenomenon: Magic Card Masters with Emperor Realm strength can always conquer more floors of the Heaven-Reaching Tower.
Of course, there are no exceptions; there will always be a few special Magic Card Masters, for example, this Finish Finish Time, Lu Li is an exception.
With King Realm strength, under more unfavorable conditions for himself, he completed the same feat as the Supreme back then. The profound meaning in this is very intriguing.
"I don't know what the 'point' that Region Lord Lord Gongshu mentioned means~?" Not knowing the thoughts of Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing and the other two, Lu Li was quite concerned about the "point" the other party mentioned.
For Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing, a Region Lord guarding one side of the Ancient Kingdom, Lu Li was full of respect, but he didn't appear too humble.
In any case, his teacher, Night Queen Yue Nishang, belonged to the same level of big shot as Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing.
In the Four University Exchange Tournament that hadn't passed long ago, Lu Li had even seen the Supreme, Taiyin Taiyin Taiyin Youying, who was stronger than Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing and the Night Queen.
Even when facing a powerhouse at the level of the Supreme, he performed neither humble nor arrogant.
Moreover, now in his own Eternal Land, there were two heavyweight figures at the World Will level.
Having talked and laughed with so many top big shots, and even had close contact, Lu Li naturally wouldn't become restrained because of Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing's status as a Region Lord.
And such a performance made Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing and the other two nod secretly. Strength is one aspect, and character is also indispensable for a Magic Card Master.
Sure enough, he is a Magic Card Master who conquered the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower. Just this bearing is something ordinary Magic Card Masters cannot achieve.
They had also seen all kinds of Magic Card Masters, young ones and old ones, but unfortunately, in front of them, these people still couldn't let go.
Their status put too much pressure on these ordinary Magic Card Masters.
"No rush!" Facing Lu Li's doubt, Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing waved his hand, then said to Li Wei and Tan Huan, "You two leave first. I will talk to Lu Li alone about the next matter."
Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing's next performance was a bit unexpected, and it also made Li Wei and Tan Huan feel puzzled.
The two of them had originally planned to see if they could get some relevant intelligence about the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower from the conversation between Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing and Lu Li.
Or maybe some other intelligence would also be fine, at least not like now, being completely in the dark.
It was just that they didn't expect that this old fox, Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing, had even considered this point and directly cut off their thoughts.
Clearly, it was their Frost Capital that released the quota for the Titan Sanctuary, but now the one who conquered the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower was not a Magic Card Master from their Frost Capital, nor even a Magic Card Master from the Northern Region.
And Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing, who knew the secrets of the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, ordered them to leave. This Titan Temple still belonged to their Frost Capital. Is there any reason for this?!
The resentment on their faces was almost overflowing. How could they bully the two of them, the Immortals, like this!
It was a pity that facing the resentful gazes of his subordinates, Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing ignored them directly. After all, the matter he and Lu Li were going to talk about next was not suitable for others to hear, especially with the Supreme's instruction.
"Understood, Region Lord," seeing this, no matter how much complaint Li Wei and Tan Huan had in their hearts, they had no way to refuse Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing's decision.
Who told Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing to be the Northern Region Lord, their immediate superior? The other party's strength was just stronger than theirs!
Subordinates are not allowed to talk back to their superiors. Li Wei and Tan Huan still understood this sentence. Especially since there were outsiders present, even if it were otherwise, they had to give Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing face...
494. A dead end
"Su Su Xueyi, you also leave with Capital Lord Tan Huan and President Li Wei first," seeing this, Lu Li also patted Su Su Su Xueyi on the shoulder, letting the girl leave with the two Immortals for a while.
The content of Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing's conversation with him next probably involved some secrets, and the importance of these secrets was such that even big shots like Li Wei and Tan Huan, the two Immortals, were not qualified to come into contact with them.
Otherwise, Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing wouldn't have made such a request just now, and even Li Wei and Tan Huan were called away by him.
Under these circumstances, Su Su Su Xueyi naturally wasn't qualified to stay here either.
Even, if it weren't for his own sake, Su Su Su Xueyi probably wouldn't even have the qualification to stay in the Titan Temple, let alone wait for him to come out.
"Mm, I listen to you," Su Su Su Xueyi nodded. She naturally understood this point. Moreover, even if she stayed here, it would be of no use.
To put it bluntly, if Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing really wanted to make a move on Lu Li, she would become a burden to the other party instead.
Of course, Su Su Su Xueyi felt that this wouldn't happen. After all, she had just been in contact with the other party.
Although Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing gave people a feeling of being a lecher, he was the Northern Region Lord after all. Whether in status, position, or strength, he wouldn't do things that suppressed young people.
If Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing knew what Su Su Su Xueyi was thinking, he would definitely be so angry that he would vomit blood. He didn't expect that as a Region Lord, he would be viewed this way. It's just...
Leaving only one sentence, Su Su Su Xueyi silently left with Li Wei and Tan Huan, leaving space for the two.
"Alright, now we should talk about business," seeing that only the two of them were left in the Titan Sanctuary, the smile on Lord Gongshu Lord Gongshu Gongshu Zhengqing's face slowly dissipated, and his complexion gradually became solemn, "Lu Li, having successfully conquered the 100th floor of the Heaven-Reaching Tower, you should now know the truth about the destruction of the world."
"Although this may not be the final ending of all worlds, and perhaps not all destroyed worlds were because of the invasion of extraterrestrial fierce beasts."
"But there is no doubt that the existence of extraterrestrial fierce beasts will bring terrifying disasters to the world."
For a long Finish Finish Time, the reason announced by the Ancient Kingdom for the destruction of various worlds, the splitting of world fragments into attachments to the Magic Card civilization, and the passage of Finish Finish Time eventually becoming dimensional planes, was unknown.
But in reality, it was not so. At the very least, for the high-level officials of the Ancient Kingdom, they knew more.
A long Finish Finish Time ago, the high-level officials of the Ancient Kingdom already knew that the fundamental reason for the destruction of different worlds was highly likely because they were threatened and attacked by extraterrestrial fierce beasts, and were attacked by existences at the level of Star Eaters!
Those with better luck, like the Titan home planet and the Elf civilization, after the world collapsed, the World Pillar and World Will escaped the crisis of destruction, fell with the world fragments, and attached to the Magic Card civilization, eventually experiencing a long Finish Finish Time and evolving into dimensional planes.
Celestin and Tiamat were the best examples.
And those with bad luck were those whose World Pillars suffered devastating blows and were torn apart. Even if a part fell to the Magic Card civilization with the collapsing world fragments and even evolved into dimensional planes, they lost most of their abilities.
The Eternal Night plane explored by the three capitals of the Eastern Region, the high-level mechanical civilization it belonged to; and the dimensional plane located at the junction of the Western and Southern Regions that was about to be destroyed, the Spirit World it belonged to, were typical examples.
But the most common ones were the World Pillar and World Will being destroyed along with the collapse of the world, eventually everything returning to the void, becoming a space seed, being discovered in some corner outside the territory, or being swallowed by extraterrestrial fierce beasts.
