Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven-Chapter 730 - 721: Speeding Up

"My swordsmanship has reached the highest realm, and my Sword Intent has been tempered to perfection."

Unbeknownst to others, Mo Wangchen had arrived at the twenty-fifth floor of the Ancient God Tower.

After completely slaughtering the Monster Beasts here, he murmured to himself and then sheathed his Emperor Weapon longsword.

"Buzz!"

The space vibrated slightly, and Mo Wangchen’s vision was momentarily filled with a blur of white, and he felt weightless, but soon that sensation vanished.

When he regained his sight, Mo Wangchen found himself on the twenty-sixth floor.

"Roar!"

The sky was filled with the roars of Monster Beasts, a dense mass of them.

The cultivation of the Monster Beasts here had already surpassed those on previous floors, all between the first and second levels of the Emperor Realm.

Facing such numbers, one with insufficient strength would be utterly unable to cope.

"Buzz!"

Mo Wangchen’s body soared out, and with a palm, he struck with the Holy Yang Seal, spreading dazzling Immortal Light that seemed to carry an unparalleled majestic power, utterly obliterating hundreds upon hundreds of Monster Beasts.

"Swoosh!"

He darted through the horde of beasts, his fists clenched, unleashing the explosive power of his Divine King Body, each punch carrying the might of a mountain.

At this moment, Mo Wangchen was like the reincarnation of a Divine King, his invincible elegance incomparable.

"If I can reach the top of the hundred floors, I will have hope in advancing to the Emperor Realm Great Mahayana!"

Amidst the endless slaughter, Mo Wangchen let out a low roar, and as he climbed higher, the Spirit Sea within him strengthened, and his Spiritual Power grew.

According to his estimations, continuing like this, after a hundred floors, he would certainly be able to attempt breaking through to the seventh level of the Emperor Realm!

At this moment, he held nothing back and quickened his Tower Climbing pace.

"Forty-five floors now!"

An exclamation echoed from the plaza outside the tower. Just now, the space at the forty-fifth floor had burst into an extremely dazzling light.

That indicated someone had reached the forty-fifth floor.

"Such speed, this must be the best record in nearly ten thousand years, right?"

"Who could it be? Ji Ziyao? Li Hentian? Or is it Yao Suming that we suspect?"

"It might also be someone else!"

The crowd was abuzz with speculation; the Tower Climbing had been going on for less than an hour now.

And yet, someone had already reached the forty-fifth floor, roughly equivalent to half of the total number of floors.

Such speed was undeniably fast!

The Ancient God Tower had always seen many people come to challenge it, and in thousands of years, it seemed that no one had managed to reach the forty-fifth floor within an hour.

"After the first, several seem to be following closely behind, now also reaching the fortieth floor."

"These must be Wang Tao and a group of other peerless talents."

"Behind them, the rest are only on the thirtieth floor, a full ten floors apart. It seems impossible for them to catch up."

The crowd discussed; so far, the current situation revealed quite a bit.

Today, those who have the hope of reaching the peak of the hundredth floor are probably only about a dozen people.

Even now, that includes the talents who have ascended above the fortieth floor.

Those who still linger below the thirtieth have a slim chance.

Even at this moment, some who had entered the Tower Climbing had already been teleported out.

They all had a look of lingering fear on their faces as if they had just experienced a brush with death.

"Eh?"

"Below the thirtieth floor, someone seems to be exerting their force as well; they’re climbing the tower at an extremely fast speed!"

Suddenly, a cry of surprise came from the crowd, and many people turned their attention to the thirtieth floor, where a light was continuously refracting out.

Thirty-first floor.

Thirty-second floor.

Thirty-third floor.

...

Thirty-seventh floor.

In just a quarter of an hour’s time, that beam of light passed through seven layers in full view of the crowd.

"Hiss!"

A sound of sharp intake of breath echoed throughout the venue, and astonishment appeared on everyone’s face.

"So fast, jumping from the thirtieth to the thirty-seventh floor in one go."

"What’s going on? With such speed, why was this person so far behind before?"

"For the earlier floors, they must have been conserving their energy, and perhaps they realised they were too far behind the rest and had to start exerting themselves."

After the surprise, the crowd burst into a hubbub of discussion.

"That being said, to storm through seven layers in the span of a quarter of an hour, even the person who was leading before couldn’t do that, right?"

"Thirty-eighth floor now!"

Amid the chatter of the crowd, the thirty-eighth floor quickly lit up, its radiance shining in all directions.

"So fast, it’s almost catching up with the lead pack."

At this moment, there was no one who was not surprised, for the speed of the person breaking through was simply too fast. Even Yao Suming, who was leading earlier, had taken almost double the time to move from the thirtieth to the thirty-eighth floor, hadn’t he?

"Who could it be?"

"There are too many geniuses climbing the tower today; it’s simply impossible to guess their identity. I suppose we’ll only find out after it’s all over."

"The Divine Qi contained at the hundredth floor’s peak will be crucial for my attempt to breach into the Void Immortal Realm. I am resolved to claim it," at the same time as the crowd was discussing fervently.

Suddenly, from the forty-seventh floor of the Ancient God Tower, a resounding voice boomed out.

"It’s Yao Suming!"

Surprise showed on the faces of the people outside the tower as they recognized the speaker to be Yao Suming.

"I didn’t expect the leader to be Yao Suming; I thought it would be Ji Ziyao from the Immortal Sect of Inquiry."

Someone commented, "People of the Demon God Clan carry the bloodline of ancient Great Demons within them. They have an inherent advantage over all Monster Beasts in the world, so it’s not surprising that Yao Suming was leading everyone."

"Even so, aiming for the Divine Qi above the hundredth floor seems a bit premature, doesn’t it?"

At this moment, from the forty-second floor, a cold snort sounded out, and the speaker was none other than Li Hentian.

"With your bloodline inheritance from an ancient Great Demon, you might be a few floors ahead of us, but as we ascend higher, the Monster Beasts grow more formidable. Soon, the advantage of your bloodline will wane, and the Divine Qi isn’t just for you alone."

Wang Tao also spoke up, he was currently only one layer behind Li Hentian, at the forty-first floor.

"Words are superfluous. I’ll be waiting for you at the peak."

With a cold snort, Yao Suming didn’t say another word and focused entirely on his tower climbing.

"Blabbering away, what the hell are you blabbering about? Can’t you climb the tower properly? You almost got me hacked by a Monster Beast."

Just then, from somewhere around the thirtieth floor, an extremely irate voice, filled with anger, shot towards Yao Suming’s location.

"Uh."

When this statement was made, everyone at the scene was stunned, and many people recognized the owner of the voice, which caused their faces to turn strange.

At the thirty-fifth floor, Wu Lingfeng recovered from his daze and said with a wry smile, "Just climb your tower properly. It’s been so long, and you’ve only reached the thirtieth floor..."

The person who had just spoken, he naturally knew who it was; it could only be Bai Jincheng without a doubt.
