God and Devil World

The Red Jade Mantises also made use of their blade-like arms to slice at Yue Zhong, however, their attacks were all repelled by the Battle Armor, bouncing off and slicing their own comrades.

In the middle of the horde of Red Jade Mantises, Yue Zhong continued to punch out in a frenzy, blasting to pieces, absorbing a huge amount of life force.

When dozens of them had been killed, the remaining Red Jade Mantises no longer dared to get closer. Instead, their eyes flashed with fury, and a bright red light shot out from them and slammed into Yue Zhong.

Struck by these beams, Yue Zhong felt his body sinking slightly. Over thousands of red beams caused his back to feel as though he was weighing a mountain.

A Type 9 Mutant Beast was extremely terrifying, regardless of the species. Other than the blades of these Red Jade Mantises that contain the laws of Slashing, they had other abilities, one of them being the Red Jade Holy Beam.

As long as this beam hit, even a Type 9 powerhouse would feel as though there was a heavy mountain on his back. Under countless similar beams, the intense gravity and weight could even squash someone to death.

These Red Jade Mantises had intelligence as well, seeing as they were at the Type 9 realm. Although they might have been kept and reared here by some unknown, terrifying force, they still had superior battle instinct, not losing out to humans, and could swiftly adjust their tactics to attack their enemies.

"No, I have to flee, otherwise, I will really be buried here." Yue Zhong frowned, and with a flash of his figure, he charged right at the ring of light that was likely to lead to the 2nd level.

The Red Jade Mantises immediately gave chase, while he charged right through them and knocked them away.

Within a few breaths, he managed to reach the ring of light.

The moment he stepped through the ring, he disappeared from his current location.

As the Red Jade Mantises got close to the ring of light, their bodies shuddered as they stared at the ring, their eyes filled with terror.

When the light subsided, Yue Zhong noticed that he was standing in a world that was full of energy, and the ground was covered with all sorts of precious fruits.

The fruits were even more abundant than those on the first level. There were strength-enhancing ones, recovery ones, soul-nourishing ones, and many others. Many of them were heavenly and were considered rare even on the Great God World. They contained principles and laws of the world. If a half-type Type 9 expert were to eat a few of these fruits, and cultivated for a short time, refining the properties, they could instantly leap into the Type 9 realm.

Yue Zhong stared at the ground, and sighed in his heart, "My goodness. This Tower of Babel is filled with treasures! No wonder everyone wants to enter this. However, the levels of danger are truly high. If one is not careful, they would truly fall."

The danger was rife in the Tower of Babel, where 9 out of 10 would perish. Still, many would fight to enter, just because of a chance for a breakthrough and a chance at evolution.

Entering the Tower of Babel, if one survived, they would definitely be able to break through and reach the Type 9 expert, lording over many worlds. However, each time the Tower was open, many would perish, and only a small handful would walk out.

Yue Zhong waved his hands, and countless Mechs flew out from his Universe Ring, and soared everywhere, harvesting all the good stuff on the ground.

He surveyed his surroundings, and a glint appeared in his eyes, as he headed towards the west.

About 3,000 li away from the entrance of the 2nd level, there were 365 sacred pillars that reached the clouds, radiating might, and a sacred aura, at the same time, they contained a terrifying energy within.

"Those sacred pillars are scary. It’s definitely not made by some Type 9 expert. These are items surpassing the Gold-Grade realm! Who knows who came up with this..."

Yue Zhong flew to one of the pillars and discovered that he was basically an ant in front of it. He looked up and could see that the pillar went on for miles, but no end in sight. At the same time, they were constantly emitting a terrifying strength that was more than a thousand times stronger than him.

As he came to about a region 30km away from the pillar, he noticed a sense of summoning from it.

Under that mysterious beckoning, Yue Zhong walked over slowly and reached out to touch the pillar.

When he came in contact with the pillar, numerous golden silk shot out from the pillar and wrapped around him.

The moment the strings appeared, Yue Zhong was shocked and tried his best to retreat. Unfortunately, his actions were too slow, and the silk immediately wrapped him up into a golden cocoon.

The moment the cocoon was formed, a powerful strength poured out from the sacred pillar, coursing through his body, and nourished his God-Devil Nucleus, as well as his soul.

At the same time, all sorts of mysteries, laws, truths of the universe, as well as knowledge, poured into his consciousness, giving him an increased sense of clarity. He had seen the path to evolution, "So it was like this! In order to become a True God warrior, one has to possess the knowledge and comprehend the universal truths, developing an indestructible godly soul, before finally becoming a True God, lasting for eternity, and omnipotent."

"The fact that I could evolve constantly to reach where I am, and to the True God level in the future, is because of this perfect physique of mine. As long as I absorb enough strength, I will constantly evolve. However, that would cause me to lose my sense of the Dao, and it would be cleaved off, and all that I have would end up in someone else’s hands."

"I need to obtain knowledge, in order to truly break free, and gain the Dao to my own evolution."

When Yue Zhong thought up to this point, his soul calmed down and began absorbing the knowledge from the sacred pillar like a parched person coming in contact with water.

From the boundless knowledge passed by the sacred pillar, Yue Zhong could see the rise of numerous weak civilizations, till their peaks, before their annihilation.

As he watched, Yue Zhong was also beginning to understand, as he cultivated bitterly, creating his own Dao of evolution.

From the moment Earth changed, Yue Zhong had been constantly fighting, slaughtering, and facing all sorts of challenges. Other than fighting, he had to consider his expansion, protecting even more people. As for his own evolution, he had never considered too much about it.

However, within the golden cocoon, time seemed to stop, allowing Yue Zhong to sink into the new perspectives and knowledge he gained. He contemplated silently, slowly forging his own Dao.

"Civilizations can rise, grow and expand, because of fire. With fire, biological life forms can obtain food, strengthening their bodies, and evolve constantly."

"Fire is the starting point of everything. Even in the myths and legends of gods, it was because Prometheus had given fire to humans that allowed humankind to grow."

"The God-Devil Domain is the perfect Domain from the God-Devil Physique, and the physique itself contains the strongest mysteries and knowledge. This sort of strength was not comprehended by myself, and its origins are unknown. If I do not comprehend everything about the God-Devil Physique, it would not be possible for me to proceed to the next step. As for the Flame Domain, it was something I relied on the God-Devil Physique to help myself comprehend. Thus, there’s a part that belongs to me. The source of its evolution comes from me, thus, its future is dependable on me, only then would it truly be mine."

"Fire, can burn everything, wipe out the evil in the world, and contain boundless power, as well as the potential to evolve. With it as the start, even if I reach the True God level, I will be able to continue evolving."

The moment he had this comprehension, he began to use the Flame Domain as the foundation, absorbing the knowledge from the sacred pillar, further comprehending the laws of Fire.

If it were outside, in order to understand a law or principle, it would take an incredible amount of time. One would have to read a lot and possess enough wisdom, coupled with experience in the most dangerous of places, coming in contact with the different flames of the world, in order to comprehend the laws of Fire.

Within this golden cocoon, Yue Zhong just had to will it and control the knowledge to form into all types of flames, observing their origins and forge his own laws of Fire.

As he continued to contemplate, he was undergoing a metamorphosis, comprehending his own Dao of Fire.

After some time since Yue Zhong entered, a transparent figure also flew out from the entrance of the 2nd level.

The silhouette took a look at the barren ground, and frowned, "Did someone arrive before?! Damn it!"

Soon, this figure also discovered the 365 pillars, and his eyes brightened up. He swiftly soared towards the pillar and came in contact with one, forming into a golden cocoon as well.
