Chapter 3524: Tower

What Wu Feng saw was a huge tower; this huge tower was of unknown height, and he couldn't see the top at all.

And Wu Feng and the Jade Emperor were at a certain part of this tower; below them were many, many living beings.

These living beings were categorized and divided into many strata.

Taking humans as an example, the lowest level were ordinary commoners, and the strata above were cultivators.

And the even higher strata were immortals.

Immortals were cultivators who had achieved success; they were also divided into many strata, extending all the way to the stratum where Wu Feng was.

People were constantly struggling to cross their own strata and reach new ones.

Of course, there were also people who encountered danger, fell from their own strata, and unwillingly went to the strata below to continue living their lives.

In the strata, Wu Feng saw many familiar faces.

For example, at about ten strata below, Wu Feng saw Erlang Shen.

At about fifteen or sixteen strata, Wu Feng saw Zhu Bajie and Sha Wujing.

As for Sun Wukong, he was at a higher stratum than Erlang Shen.

Wu Feng couldn't see Tang Seng; he guessed that because he would be a Saint in the future, he should at least be at the same level as where Wu Feng was now.

Although the Jade Emperor was powerful, he was also at the level of a Quasi-Saint.

It was just very clear that through this period of contact with the Jade Emperor, Wu Feng felt that among Quasi-Saints, the Jade Emperor should be considered the strongest.

This made Wu Feng feel some doubt, so he asked: "Haotian Shangdi, since your strength is so formidable, why didn't you take action to capture Sun Wukong when he caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace?"

According to Wu Feng's estimation, the Jade Emperor before him should have been able to easily defeat Sun Wukong at this time point.

Even when Sun Wukong's combat power exploded, he should at most be at the Quasi-Saint level, but he still couldn't compare to the Jade Emperor, who was at the very top among Quasi-Saints.

Regarding Wu Feng's question, the Jade Emperor smiled and said: "I know you are very confused, but these are all small matters. I have no need to confront the Western Fomen at all; after all, we are all just poor wretches climbing this Endless Ladder."

Wu Feng discovered that when the Jade Emperor spoke, he was full of emotion and despair, and he also looked up at the higher stairs above.

Wu Feng also looked, but due to his limited strength, all he saw were some illusory shadows.

The Jade Emperor should be able to see some things; Wu Feng could feel that the Jade Emperor's pain came from this.

"Young man, you should have met Nezha, and he must have told you about the pollution problem, right?"

After looking at the stairs above for a long time, the Jade Emperor turned his head to look at Wu Feng and said faintly.

Being looked at by the Jade Emperor like this actually put a lot of pressure on Wu Feng.

But at this moment, Wu Feng could only bite the bullet and say to the Jade Emperor: "Nezha told me; he said that the pollution actually comes from the constitution of us cultivators ourselves, not some real pollution. If a person can restrain their own pollution, then it actually cannot be considered a problem."

"Yes, that is exactly it."

The Jade Emperor nodded and said faintly: "The Heavenly Court before was like this; we could all restrain our own pollution. But after my cultivation base improved and I was able to see the truth of this world, my pollution could no longer be restrained at all." ===== CHAPTER 3526 =====
