Boundless Necromancer

417. The Age of Beginnings (4)

Chak-.

“Congratulations, you have broken through the 35th floor of the Tower of Trials.”

「Breakthrough reward increases all stats by +100.」

“You have acquired ‘1500000 points’ as a breakthrough reward.”

“You acquired ‘80000 SP’ as a breakthrough reward.”

「As an additional breakthrough reward, ‘Pure Madman’s Pendant (S+)’ will be sent to your inventory.」

“Go to the waiting room.”

After passing through the portal placed in the center of the stage, passing through the message of clearing the ordeal appearing in front of my eyes, the familiar scene of the waiting room was reflected in my field of vision.

“You entered the waiting room on the 36th floor.”

At that, I narrowed my eyes and pursed my lips in a strange way.

“It’s the 36th floor…”

upper tier.

In the Tower of Trials, near the 10th floor or 20th floor, close to the lower section, but closer to the upper section.

Before he knew it, he had reached the upper level, which is said to be a fairly high floor even among the challengers climbing the Tower of Trials.

“It must have come up quite a bit for a short period of time of less than a month at most.”

step….

‘It’s just like that.’

That was it.

It’s a little strange, but there’s nothing particularly sentimental about it.

If I had to question it, should I say it’s surprising that it wasn’t so difficult, contrary to the previous expectation that climbing the Tower of Trials would be tough?

But even that didn’t feel great.

So, if he transformed into the concept of divinity itself and became an ancient deity, one of the rulers of this universe, it would take some time, but there was no way he would fail in climbing the Tower of Trials.

‘Actually, going up to this upper class was something that had already been decided.’

It was boring.

Is it because the increasing effect of the trial difficulty caused by the numerous penalties that have been suffered so far has all disappeared?

After returning from the Pantheon, he did not like any of the trials even though he was engrossed in climbing the Tower of Trials.

‘I can’t believe that the disappearance of numerous penalties from the Tower of Trials was a bad thing rather than a good thing for me.’

At least, the trials on the 35th floor, given by the Tower of Trials, were unified trials, so he received items from numerous challengers as offerings and earned a nice side income, but the rest were not.

‘In general, the quality of each and every one of the ordeals, from the difficulty of clearing the ordeal to the reward for clearing the ordeal, has declined to the point where it is completely different from before.’

It was serious.

Compared to my strength, I felt it was more difficult to endure excessive boredom when dealing with enemies who had achieved a hierarchy close to ants or flying insects.

Not to mention, since the ordeals of the Tower of Trials were all lowered, it was not possible to achieve meaningful growth with the Supernatural Ability of Necromancy or the myth < Possibility of Transcendence > following the ordeal clear reward.

‘It’s annoying.’

I knew the answer.

According to the original nature of the Tower of Trials, the difficulty of clearing the ordeal will increase exponentially as you go up the floor.

In fact, the difficulty of clearing the ordeal was gradually increasing.

It seemed that if he could reach the mid-40th floor section or the early 50th floor section while climbing the Tower of Trials repeatedly, he would regain his previous growth rate to some extent.

But it just feels infinitely slower.

‘…I don’t have much time left.’

Most of the powerful people in this universe must have feelings close to contempt for me.

‘…Whether it’s the god of despair, fall, and madness lurking somewhere in the universe, or the ancient godhead in the pantheon, I’ll be messing around at least once.’

Even more, those like the ancient deities and the higher deities who figured out that this side would reach the Transcendental One couldn’t stand still.

‘There’s no place to retreat anymore.’

It was already evident when the god of despair, fall, and madness had sent the god of the sky down to Earth to play tricks.

‘I have to be strong until then.’

In fact, even though you have climbed the Tower of Trials beyond the 40th floor, if you are not suitable for growing yourself, you will have to seek a new method.

And, as far as this side knows, a new way to elevate the status of divinity may not be a way that they like very much.

Of all the deities I saw in the Tower of Trials, who became stronger in a very short time, all of them adopted methods that did not consider mortals at all.

“…”

step….

‘There’s nothing to worry about.’

To him, I let out a cold-eyed smile with a smile close to a mockery.

‘If I can get a new possibility by just throwing away this ambiguous humanity, I’ll just do it.’

If you can reach the Transcendental Being by throwing away all your own weak humanity, there is no choice but to choose it in the end.

‘I got a sense of what kind of alternatives there are.’

step….

‘therefore….’

That was it.

‘Until then, it’s enough to climb the Tower of Trials.’

Isn’t that the last option anyway?

‘That way, I can choose whether the Tower of Trials is worth more to me or if I have to choose another alternative.’

With that, I got out of my thoughts and did each and every thing I had to do.

「Uses all possessed spirits to permanently increase stats.」

“Muscle strength has increased by 9.”

「Agility has increased by 8.」

“Your physical strength has increased by 9.”

「Magic power has increased by 11.」

“Durability has increased by 10.”

“Concept has risen by 1.”

By consuming the spirits newly obtained through Necromancy at once, all stats were increased.

‘It’s at a level that can be tolerated.’

In fact, considering that all of the challengers at the Tower of Trials were at a level close to the swarm of ants, they achieved a high level of improvement in their own way.

“…”

「Exclusive authority #D-0007 [Increase reward] is activated.」

「The reward level is increased by exclusive authority #D-0007 [Increase reward].」

「The 35th floor breakthrough reward increases all stats by +100 to increase all stats by +200.」

「The 35th floor additional breakthrough reward ‘Pendant of Pure Madness (S+)’ will be strengthened to ‘Pendant of Pure Torsion (SS+)’.」

‘nice.’

That’s not all.

To put it bluntly, the +200 increase in all stats given by the Tower of Trials as a reward for clearing the 35th floor is also satisfactory compared to the useless items obtained from the previous floor.

There’s nothing better than being able to sublimate one’s physical abilities into a special move that’s close to one divine supernormal ability by divine < fighting spirit >.

‘But this is not all.’

step….

Shuk-.

This is just the tip of the iceberg.

‘If I had to argue, the +200 increase in all abilities, which is the reward for clearing the ordeal, is a valuable reward in its own way…’

It’s not different-.

‘Well, at least.’

After that, the moment you open your inventory.

‘Actually, the biggest gain I got this time is something else.’

Numerous items piled up in the inventory were pouring out.

Not just low-grade items that can be seen everywhere, but rather high-grade items that are worth enough to hold on to greed, whoever they are, piled up like a mountain.

There are also several items with rare value, such as skill proficiency raising potions, which are impossible to obtain at all in places other than the Tower of Trials.

「The skill ‘Steel Feed’ is strongly activated.」

‘Shall we start lightly?’

but for a while.

“Complete absorption.”

“Muscle strength increases by 4.”

「Agility increases by 3.」

“Your physical strength increases by 4.”

「Durability increases by 6.」

「Magic power increases by 5.」

Anyway, most of the numerous items were ambiguous for this side to use, so I finished processing them appropriately.

“…”

「The Seal of Offering (SS-) exclusive effect ‘Offering (供養)’ is activated.」

“I received 11 items from myself.”

“Replaces the corresponding items with divine power and accumulates them in the heart.”

It didn’t even take that much time.

It’s because I’ve already done it dozens of times to replace useless items in one of the divinity or stats.

After disposing of the items piled up like a mountain in the blink of an eye, only high-end items with high use value remained.

「Skill Proficiency Up Potion」

「Rating: B+」

“A special potion specially produced by the tower for beings with skills.”

“When taken, one of the possessed skills can be arbitrarily increased by 30%.”

For challengers who climb the Tower of Trials or those who have skills through the system, special items such as skill proficiency increase potions can forcibly increase the skill grade, so the higher the skill grade, the higher the value of use.

“You consumed a skill proficiency increase potion (B+).”

「Select a skill to increase your proficiency.」

Is that why?

“…”

“Selection complete.”

「Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s power skill, ‘Star Light (SS-)’ mastery increases by 210%.」

The moment when he consumed all of the ‘Skill Proficiency Up Potion (B+)’ that he possessed.

「The mastery of the power skill ‘Star Light (SS-)’ has reached 100%.」

「The grade of the power skill ‘Star Light (SS-)’ will rise by one level.」

「The mastery of the Authority skill ‘Star Light (SS)’ has reached 100%…」

「The level of the Authority skill ‘Star Light (SS)’ will go up by one level…」

“Even if the mastery of the power skill ‘Star Light (SS+)’ reaches 100%…”

「The level of the Authority skill ‘Star Light (SS+)’ is one step higher…」

In an instant, the rank of the skill soared to a place close to the ceiling.

“Now, from the Honyuan Demonic Sword to the Holy Light, has it reached the SSS-class level…?”

Among the skills this side has, the skill of the star that can give the greatest wide-area damage has reached the SSS-class.

‘Even when he was just a high-ranking god, after the Hunyuan demon sword grew to SSS-level, he was able to momentarily exert destructive power close to that of an ancient god.’

That means one thing.

‘How much stronger the holy light has become after the Hunyuan Demonic Sword.’

In fact, the star light this side possesses is not limited to the original star light possessed by the Dragon God, and it is highly likely that it has a higher degree of perfection.

‘That’s something to look forward to.’

wonderfully too.

“…”

“Selection complete.”

「Challenger Han Seong-yoon’s concept increases by +70.」

“…”

「Constitutional improvement completed.」

“Your physical strength has risen by +10.”

“…”

“Mana absorption complete.”

「Magic power has increased by +20.」

“It’s neat.”

In an instant, he finished preparing to climb the Tower of Trials again by using designated stat-up potions and various elixir-type items.

‘At this point, there’s nothing more I need to do.’

however….

‘Slowly go to the next trial…’

Contrary to the original plan, it was not possible to climb the Tower of Trials right away.

“…”

「Condition satisfied.」

「We have confirmed that the total number of people who have broken through the trials on the 35th floor of the Tower of Trials has exceeded 1500.」

‘uh?’

Suddenly, system messages appeared in my field of vision just as I was about to move to a new floor.

「System expansion begins.」

「Start of extension of permission.」

“…”

‘System expansion…?’

Not different…

「Acquired exclusive authority #G-1047[Choice of Choice].」

「When entering a new ordeal, it becomes possible to autonomously select the ‘ordeal theme’ according to the unique keyword.”

「However, the autonomous selection of the ‘trial theme’ must be decided within three options optimized for the individual by unique keywords.」

“Depending on the choice, the content of the trial will change.”

It was an unexpected upheaval.
