Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Chapter 1652: Tower Formation

Sam closed his eyes as he felt the connection.

He lost himself in that connection and let it take the reign of his soul. That overwhelming power still made him feel safe and sound without any sense of danger whatsoever. While Sam is getting lost in that feeling, the rest of the players and Ling Tian witness the formation of the tower.

The black smoke formed. It surrounded a much vaster area than any of the previous towers.

The smoke turned into the silhouettes of normal humans, children, and adults. One silhouette after another appeared out of nowhere.

Two, four, eight, sixteen…. a hundred.

Not just human silhouettes. Soon silhouettes of hens and roosters, ducks, goats, pigeons, rats, wolves, foxes, bears, and crocodiles. A lot of animals that only existed back on earth appeared.

The first floor of the tower was formed. All of the silhouettes entered that. The second floor soon formed and a few hundred human silhouettes appeared.

The sheer number made the other players and Ling Tian feel surprised. They also killed thousands of people, but none of them had this many in the very first floors.

They are expecting something grand, but this way too much even for their expectations.

While they are contemplating on how huge the tower will be at this rate, the third floor came followed by hundreds of people & animals, kept on increasing. Then came fourth floor, followed by fifth, sixth, seventh… tenth… fifteenth…twentieth.

Finally, it stopped a bit.

Everyone was shocked. Twenty floors and all they saw were silhouettes of humans and animals. Normal animals. Not the beasts here. That means, everything that they have seen until now is from their previous life of Sam.

For other candidates, there are more than twenty floors at least, but that is the combination of the two lifetimes. And the first life didn't even have that many lives. There are only a few hundred people and that is for Dayus.

Noah and Kumar didn't even have that many lives behind them.

There is no way they would have ever imagined that Sam could have killed this many people in his first life. As they are shocked about that for a moment, they realized how many people he must have killed in this life.

Even the count they vaguely know is way too huge. The Usain sect, thunder god temple, the wars he waged when united the western continent. The people he killed within the empire. People he killed when he destroyed the organizations, it could be said that Sam had made most enemies and he also killed most people.

And the suffering he caused, is also no less. Of course, he made a lot of lives better. Expanded his organization like crazy, but the lives he took are not any less.

The floors continued.

Twenty-first, Twenty-fourth, Twenty-eighth, thirty-second, thirty-fifth, thirty-eight, forty-fifth, fiftieth, fifth sixth, it went on and on. Finally, they only stopped when it hit seventy-second.

Seventy-two floors.

Every floor is twice as big as theirs and they have filled with hundreds of people if not thousands and tens of thousands. With so many sins manifested in such forms, they cannot even imagine how long it will take to clear them all.

Sam opened his eyes.

He is currently on the ground floor of the tower. Standing beside the pillar with his eyes open as he started the majestic room around him.

The pillar changed a bit.

At first, it was just a seven feet tall pillar that has no aesthetic appeal. But now it is supporting such a large tower. It obviously grew in size and there are three grooves across the length of the tower.

One of the grooves started filling up. It is filled with bright blue light. After the groove was filled, it started spreading to the rest of the pillar and before he knew it, one-third of the pillar is glowing

And the glow is not just superficial. It is on a granular level.

Sam is perplexed as he couldn't understand what this light is. It is definitely not energy. He could easily sense it if it was.

It almost looked like a normal light without any gimmick. But even the spiritual energy that comes from normal light is not showing when he used energy vision.

Looking at Sam's confusion, Ling Tian chuckled and said.

"Don't worry. It is no fault of your abilities. The blue line you are seeing is faith. That is an indicator.

The remaining two grooves are actually the indicators of sin taming and corruption absorption.

Your faith is overflowing that is why the pillar is glowing like that. The indicators are made in such a way that they can hold much more than what an average player can gain. Even if an average player fill each groove to seventy percent, they would have enough strength to become an excellent Divine stage cultivator and would be able to stand at the peak of Divine plane cultivators when they reach the peak.

I must say, even I am surprised a lot by your faith. It is almost on part with a decently ranked god. Not a single Divine Plane cultivator would be able to fight you in that regard."

"Thanks for the compliment. Luckily, all the things I have done at least yielded some results. It would have been a waste otherwise."

"Really? In what form or shape is your current empire a failure? I would have loved to have that much under my control when I was becoming a Divine Plane cultivator.

Don't play the modest game. It doesn't really play well with the other players."

"I don't need them to be my fans and I will judge my accomplishments based on my own standards. There is not much I can do  if that makes some salty bitches cry over me."

"Okay, okay. No need to be that serious. Anyway, I told you what you should know. The only thing to let you know right now is that your towers are built in the neutral areas of hell.

And Hell is basically divided into various domains. Your area is currently closed to Hel's domain. She is the person in charge of hell from the Norse Gods' side and she is also part of the game. So, I guess I don't need to tell you why she became in charge.

Anyway, that woman is going to be a pain in the ass if she tries to be one because of your history. So, I would suggest that you don't give her as many chances.

One way for your to help yourself in this situation is not roam around in the neutral domain of the hell too much.

That area has no governance whatsoever, so when you are out of the tower, things might get a bit wild.

Apart from that, there is actually zero advice I can give you. You can figure out the rest pretty much on your own as you start the task.

The further tasks will be known as you continue."

Sam nodded and Ling Tian disappeared with a goodbye after he said everything he needed to say. Sam was finally relaxed after that.

He looked at the Pillar and placed his hand on it. He closed his eyes and wished to be on the floor.

The first floor of the Pillar.

Sam looked in the surroundings. It is vast. He could see vague structures of buildings on the horizon, so he decided that he can start somewhere.

But on his way through, he finally spotted something that made him remember some of the things he did when he was a really little kid and did some things that a person shouldn't do no matter how you are angered.
