With a thought, Chen Mo used his Divine Power to seize control of the Cursing Insect.
Slok also instantly learned of the corresponding information prompt.
[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Please be aware! Please be aware! Your ’Possession Divine Curse’ is being taken by soone expending Divine Power. If you cannot expend Divine Power to block them, you will lose control of your ’Possession Divine Curse’ in 3 seconds!]
Divine Power? Seizing?
Spike was utterly bewildered at that mont.
Before he could sort out his thoughts, the three-second countdown had already ended.
Along with this, The Heavenly Path’s Hint rang out again.
[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Please be careful. As you failed to prevent the seizure, you have lost control of your ’Possession Divine Curse’.]
Only at this mont did Spike look alertly at the previous Heavenly Path’s Hint.
Divine Power... Divine Power... How is this possible? How can sothing like Divine Power appear in a fourth-transition competition zone?
He looked bewildered, his mind in utter confusion.
He didn’t even know who had seized his Cursing Insect or by what ans.
If it was a participant in the event instance, that should be impossible. He had never heard of Divine Power existing in anyone below the fifth-transition.
He repeatedly checked the history of the Heavenly Dao again and again.
But no matter how many tis he checked, the words in The Heavenly Path’s Hint never changed. The term ’Divine Power’ was clearly displayed.
Could it have been seized by so BOSS within the instance?
In the end, after mulling it over repeatedly, this was the only implausible reason he could co up with.
After all, his Possession Divine Curse should be on its way to find Chen Mo’s coordinates at this ti; how could it be seized by an instance BOSS for no reason?
But aside from an instance BOSS potentially possessing Divine Power, he truly couldn’t imagine any other participant having it.
Seeing that their initial gambit had failed and a Cursing Insect had already been lost, Slok was quite upset.
Furthermore, having witnessed Wipha’s death and knowing that Chen Mo indeed possessed the ability to kill top-tier fourth-transition professionals, he proceeded with much greater caution.
Originally, if he could have used the Possession Divine Curse to gather information on Chen Mo, he would have had tactical flexibility. Now, that was no longer possible.
While he was frustrated, Chen Mo was in high spirits.
Having acquired an extrely potent tracking Cursing Insect for free, he naturally felt pleased.
The mont he got it, he used it right away.
"Just a single piece of clear, relevant information is needed to find the target—these conditions are quite excellent! Go and possess competitor number 7596 to pinpoint his location!"
As Chen Mo gave the order, the Possession Divine Curse nodded its little head and then flew away from Chen Mo, fading between the virtual and the real.
After dispatching the Possession Divine Curse, Chen Mo continued towards the staircase leading to the next floor.
To be the first, he moved at an extrely high speed.
After all, with the powerful combination of the Eye of Origin and Moluo’s Brain, he wasn’t afraid of encountering traps or pitfalls along the way!
The staircase to the next floor, which initially appeared to be close by, actually required navigating a long, winding path through the maze-like corridors.
Not only Chen Mo, but Zhui Yi also encountered the sa situation.
The staircase to the next floor, marked by blinking highlights on the map, seed tantalizingly close. Even though Zhui Yi could sense it was just on the other side of the wall, he simply couldn’t get to it. Even with the Flash Appearance ability, one could only flash for a hundred ters in corridors without wall blockages; it was simply inconceivable to flash from one side of a wall to the other.
Evidently, trying to take shortcuts to quickly reach the next staircase within the Demon Tower was impossible.
Chen Mo understood this, however, and didn’t dwell on it.
After all, if one could easily use Flash Appearance through walls in this kind of competition, reaching the top would be far too simple. The Heavenly Dao certainly wouldn’t create sothing so unchallenging.
At this ti, the other participants faced similar difficulties. The Teleportation Arrays and spawn points designed by the Heavenly Dao were all located very far from the staircases to the next floor.
Chen Mo was currently the closest to a staircase among all the participants.
Firstly, his movent speed was fast enough; secondly, he hadn’t used any teleportation points.
If, for example, the initial spawn point was 100 units of distance from the nearest staircase, then the distance to a teleportation point might be 20 units. However, after using the teleportation point, the new location would be 200 units away from the nearest staircase.
In other words, most other people were now significantly farther from a staircase than they were at the start.
Only Chen Mo was getting progressively closer to the next staircase.
anwhile, Zhui Yi, having wasted ti searching for Wipha, was now about as far from the next staircase as the other competitors.
However, having inherited Chen Mo’s Godspeed Source Crystal, he possessed extrely fast movent speed, so he would still find the staircase to the next floor faster than other competitors.
Since the first floor was sufficiently large, participants rarely encountered each other. Consequently, after Zhui Yi killed Wipha at the beginning, there were no death announcents for quite so ti.
Instead, everyone’s points were increasing from ti to ti.
An hour after the event started, Chen Mo had accumulated 100,000 points. The dozen or so contestants imdiately behind him had around 50,000 points each. Following them, hundreds of contestants had 40,000 points, thousands had 30,000 points, thousands more had 20,000 points, and hundreds had 10,000 points.
This showed that most people had found so point rewards in the various Demon Tower spaces.
Chen Mo quite liked this developnt; it ant there were more points for him to potentially seize.
He hoped these people would earn as many points as possible.
After navigating many twists and turns for a considerable distance, Chen Mo finally found the staircase to the next floor.
The mont Chen Mo stepped onto the staircase and entered the next floor, The Heavenly Path’s Hint imdiately rang out.
[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Congratulations to Solar System competitor number 6659 for being the first to enter the second floor of the Demon Tower! They will be rewarded with 10,000 points. Other participants, please hurry and strive for good rankings. Achieving consecutive high ranks will increase reward multipliers for subsequent rankings.
Currently, if Solar System competitor number 6659 is among the first three to enter the third floor, he will receive double the corresponding reward for that rank.
The first participant to enter the third floor will receive a 20,000 point reward, the second will receive a 10,000 point reward, and the third will receive a 5,000 point reward.]
As The Heavenly Path’s Hint sounded, the various top-tier fourth-transition professionals felt a wave of displeasure.
Nearly ten thousand top-tier fourth-transition professionals had entered the event instance. Yet, a second-transition professional had not only claid first place in points but had also outpaced them in climbing the tower. This was utterly humiliating for them!
If any other top-tier fourth-transition professional had achieved this rank, they would have felt sowhat better.
