139: Chapter 139 The Illusory Pearl, First Level, Eight Gates

"Professor, I'm back."

Inside a research lab, Shen Xinghe approached Professor Xu Bo, holding an "illusory tower pearl" he had begged from Dean Xue, as if expecting praise.

As the symbol of The Stars, many people had naturally conducted research on the illusion tower.

The "illusory tower pearl" was a treasure split from the main body of the illusion tower by a professor specializing in divine relics research, using extremely complex steps.

This item itself could be considered a secret treasure, sufficient to deceive true god-level enemies, but its greatest utility was not for combat, but as a "projector" for the interior of the illusion tower.

Of course, in order not to damage the illusion tower itself, the production of "illusory tower pearl"s was extremely limited, and generally, only individuals at the dean level possessed them.

"Not bad."

Professor Xu Bo took the illusory tower pearl handed over by Shen Xinghe with a chuckle and impatiently injected his divine power into it.

In an instant, a phantom floor structure map appeared.

There were nine floors in total, with many points of light located within, each representing a challenger.

It is worth mentioning that apart from one extremely eye-catching point of light, the rest of the points were located at the very bottom, which was the first floor.

"Eh? Besides the newcomers, are there also senior Students challenging it?"

Shen Xinghe pointed at the only point of light on the second floor and spoke in surprise.

In his impression, it was almost impossible for a newcomer to pass the first level.

Let alone newcomers, many senior Students couldn't pass the first level even until graduation.

After all, the difficulty of the illusion tower also increased with cultivation.

Even he, a researcher who had graduated thousands of years ago, had only barely passed the fourth level.

"It's a newcomer," Professor Xu Bo said decisively.

Compared to Shen Xinghe, who was an ordinary researcher, Professor Xu Bo, as a professor, had clearly already learned about the special nature of Du Ming and Chen Mo.

"Really a newcomer?"

Shen Xinghe still seemed unwilling to believe it.

"What, you don't believe it?"

Professor Xu Bo smiled and raised his hand, tapping the illusory tower pearl floating in the air.

The next second, the simple illusion tower structure map turned into a blurry scene, and a figure in fluttering white clothes appeared—who else but Du Ming.

"Hmm?"

In the scene, Du Ming, who was enjoying the battle between the "demon king" he had raised and a void behemoth, suddenly looked up and glanced at Professor Xu Bo with surprise.

That's right, through the light screen of the illusory tower pearl, Du Ming... glanced at Professor Xu Bo.

"Crack, crack, crack!"

The scene in the illusory tower pearl shattered directly.

"This is..." Shen Xinghe couldn't help but look at Professor Xu Bo, the expression on his face as if he had seen a ghost.

Professor Xu Bo's expression remained calm, but he couldn't help but frown.

When Dean Xue told him that Du Ming was the "reincarnation of a true spirit," Professor Xu Bo hadn't actually taken it too seriously.

Not to mention anything else, Professor Xu Bo himself knew a few so-called "reincarnated powerful beings."

How should he put it; although these people were stronger than him, a researcher, their strength was limited.

But this person...

Professor Xu Bo shook his head and poured his divine power into the illusory tower pearl again.

This time, he didn't look at Du Ming, but focused his target on a light point on the first level of the illusion tower.

A few seconds later, a figure appeared again—it was none other than Chen Mo.

This was the real reason Professor Xu Bo had asked Shen Xinghe to go to Xue Mingyun to ask for the illusory tower pearl.

"Void elements; this thing is even rarer than void behemoths."

Standing on a glacier, Chen Mo shook his head and looked towards the horizon.

There, an ice crystal phoenix was entangled with a thousand-meter-tall blood-colored giant.

The gate of the divine domain stood beside Chen Mo, and an endless stream of Tyrants rushed towards the distant battlefield like a tide.

But obviously, these ordinary Tyrants could not participate in this kind of "divine war" at all; just the aftermath of the battlefield turned these Tyrants, whose overall strength was above the eighth tier, into a pile of ice crystals.

But Chen Mo had never held too many expectations for these ordinary Tyrants.

From beginning to end, their purpose for appearing on the battlefield was only one: to provide supplies for "Blood One," who had activated its primary form.

As early as two weeks ago, Blood One had successfully refined its second point of divinity and used it to step into the demigod rank.

Actually, it wasn't just Blood One; the kin under his command had improved significantly over the past half-month.

A Tyrant Legion with an overall rank reaching the eighth tier.

A Jikai Race legion with a quantity of one hundred thousand, at the seventh tier.

There were also several special kin that had also been granted divinity by him and were on the verge of breaking through.

Of course, compared to Blood One, which had already broken its shackles, these kin were still a bit weaker.

Thinking this, Chen Mo casually opened Blood One's attribute panel.

Kin: Mutated Species · Tyrant of Strength {10 Mutations, Special Unit, Intelligent Creature, Mythical Creature}

Rating: Mythical+

Level: 119 {Second Transition Demigod}

Strength 420, Speed 320, Spirit 180

Divinity: 3

Law: Law of Strength {0.11%}

Abilities: [Flesh Overload · Infinite] [Flesh Regeneration] [Rage Aura] [Mutated Primary Form] [Plague Aura]

Faith Level: Fanatic. Special Status: [Mutation] {Completed: 10, 11th Mutation Progress: 91.47%}

Undoubtedly, after ascending to a demigod, Blood One's attribute advantage expanded once again.

420 points of strength was enough to pin a Martial Demigod of the same level to the ground and rub them in the dirt.

However, there was one point that Chen Mo was still a bit disappointed about, which was that although Blood One had successfully comprehended the "Law of Strength."

The speed of improvement could no longer be described as slow; it was simply at a snail's pace.

"Forget it, I actually expected a Parasitic Species with a brain full of muscles to quickly improve its laws."

Chen Mo smiled self-deprecatingly, and with a wave of his hand, a dragon-scale spear was materialized in his hand.

Fourth-Tier Divine Art, Blood Dragon God-Slaying Spear.

As all his various laws broke through to minor success, the various divine arts mastered by Chen Mo had also risen to the fourth-tier level.

To be honest, this was a quite outrageous achievement, but Chen Mo was not worried.

Because all this unreasonableness became reasonable due to his identity as a "reincarnated powerful being."

Not to mention anything far away, just take Du Ming as an example.

The other party's growth speed made even Kong Hanshu, a genius among geniuses, have to exclaim "freak."

Compared to Du Ming, Chen Mo actually appeared much more "normal."

"Go!"

Chen Mo raised his hand, and gloves covered in black and purple magic patterns were immediately materialized.

Chaos Hand: Second-Tier Special Effect, All Attributes +20, Divine Art Power +20%.

"Whoosh!"

Accompanied by a sharp piercing sound, the ice phoenix, which was performing "ice crystal lingchi" on Blood One, turned its head in astonishment, and then...

"Crack!"

The moment the blood spear pierced the ice phoenix's head, a cold light flew out from within the ice phoenix's body.

"Trying to run!"

Chen Mo's figure suddenly appeared above the head of the sluggish ice phoenix, staring indifferently at the elemental spirit that had detached from its elemental true body.

Elemental void Life forms did not have a true physical body.

So don't look at how Chen Mo heavily injured the ice phoenix with one strike; in reality, the other party had not suffered much damage.

In this ice and snow world, as long as it escaped, it could immediately reshape an identical elemental true body.

But Chen Mo obviously wouldn't give the other party this chance, and neither would Blood One.

"Roar!"

Without needing Chen Mo to act, Blood One's ferocious mouth had already struck, directly swallowing the elemental spirit into its belly.

A few seconds later...

"illusion tower, first level, eighth stage, passed."

The illusion tower's prompt came again, and Chen Mo's figure slowly dissipated in this glacier.

"Look, look quickly."

Outside the illusion tower, hundreds of Students looked up simultaneously, looking at that name that had suddenly broken into the top ten of the illusion tower rankings.

Third: Chen Mo {First level, eighth stage, passed.}
