Chapter 428 Absolute Origin
Chapter 428 Absolute Origin
A few months later, Virtual Tower, 150,001st Floor.
“Another increase in power increment?” Maximus muttered, gouging the enemy’s magnitude of power.
The guardians from floors 1 to 100,000 increased in strength by 10 magnitude of power on each floor.
The guardians from floors 100,001 to 150,000 increase in strength by 100 magnitude of power on each floor.
Then the guardians starting from the 150,001st floor increased in strength by 1,000 magnitude of power on each floor.
“This is getting harder and harder.”
In the early floors, he only had to stare at the floor guardian to bring it down.
Now he had to attack, taking more time and effort.
The guardian he was facing already had over 6 million power units, way past the peak that a tier 9 individual should have.
Thinking about the state of Skye and Lilith, Maximus moved faster in his attack.
…
A few months later, 160,001st floor.
“Another increase, this—”
From an increment of 1,000 magnitude of power each floor to 100,000 increase .
“This is insane!”
The floor guardian he was facing had the strength of over 16 million magnitude of power.
With each floor increasing by a hundred thousand each floor, even he was getting nervous.
…
A few weeks later, 161,400th floor.
Huff~
Huff~
Huff~
Maximus breathed heavily, looking at the floor guardian with concentration.
All his arrogance was already thrown out of the bag, leaving only concentration and seriousness for the enemy.
After passing the 161,000th floor, the Virtual Tower had gone nuts.
Each following floor’s strength skyrocketed to 1 million magnitude of power each floor.
Reaching the 161,400th floor, the floor guardian he was fighting had a whooping 516 million magnitude of power.
Maximus only had about 401 million magnitude of power.
The enemy severely overpowered him by over a hundred million magnitude of power.
Fortunately, the enemy didn’t have much fighting intelligence, Maximus could barely get by using his transcendence fighting ability.
Looking at the monster swooping at him, He hurriedly dodged.
Seeing an opening, Maximus hurriedly counterattacked, concentrating his power at one point.
Boom~
Before the explosion even subsided, a massive fist suddenly descended crushing him down.
Seeing he couldn’t dodge, he quickly put out his arms, sacrificing them.
“Hiss~” Regenerating his arm, he teleported out of the way.
Taking a look at the enemy who didn’t even have a head and could still charge at him, Maximus could only click his tongue.
“How is this even a trial?” Maximus complained, wondering if anyone had ever passed this sick trial.
Thanks to his origin ability, the Absolute Origin, Maximus still had the power to fight back.
His origin ability granted him the inviolable power to ignore everything.
In terms of power, no defense could ever block his attack, as it directly targeted the origin.
Treasure, skills, and even ultimate treasure were useless in front of him.
Even Skye’s bug resurrection skill was useless once he trained his ability further.
In terms of auxiliary use, the Absolute Origin granted him the ability to ignore any bottleneck.
That meant any limit had nothing to do with him.
In mastery, skill, and technicalities, as long as Maximus has time and patience, everything could be improved without bottleneck.
Such as the limit of mastery being only at transcendence; as long as Maximus put in some time, he could break such a barrier and achieve greater mastery.
There is also the power limit.
A tier 9 individual could only possess a hundred million magnitude of power.
This is the bearing capacity of the essence of law, the absolute rule of their plane of existence.
No matter the physique, talent, skills, or ultimate treasures, nothing could surpass this barrier as the essence of law would begin to break at 100 million magnitude of power.
However, he was different.
Since he practiced ‘origin,’ he was already diverging from the thread of fate, the power of rules set in their plane of existence.
Having the ability of absolute self-contained origin, the limitation of power did not apply to him.
Instead of breaking, his essence of law began to change, diverging from its original path.
As long as he was given time, even if he didn’t advance to a higher realm, his strength would continue to grow until he could crush anyone.
Using skills and finesse, Maximus quickly took down his enemy.
“This trial is not made to be passed at all…” Maximus muttered with a sigh, as he lay on the ground resting his mind.
Thinking about the top leaderboard, the no.1 passer reaching the 161,800th floor, he even began to doubt his strength.
If his guess was correct, the guardian on the 161,800th floor possessed about a billion magnitude of power.
It seemed breaking the rules of power was not only something he possessed.
“I wonder how he did it…”
However, thinking that he was still ignorant of the world, he didn’t bother to think much.
After all, he still had trump cards he hadn’t used.
His ability, The Absolute Origin, was just the passive skill he derived from the Origin Manual.
As for the combination of the Origin Manual and his Origin Grade physique, it’s an active skill that could destroy the world.
Thinking about this, he smiled confidently.
However, he suddenly grew worried, wondering how Skye and Lilith were doing.
“I hope they’re okay…”
…
In alternate space, 160,001st Floor:
Looking at the frightening enemy in front of her, instead of despairing, Skye smiled.
An enemy with over 16 million magnitude of power, while possessing only a million magnitude of power, Skye could only be crushed instantly.
“This is already out of my league,” Skye thought.
She didn’t even have time to dodge.
Even if she could see through the enemy’s attack pattern, Skye could only die.
“However…” With a smile on her lips, before Skye was crushed to death, she attacked with all her strength.
A few milliseconds from death, Skye quickly resurrected, checking for the damage she’d done.
“Sure enough, I can still inflict damage!” Skye thought confidently.
As long as Skye could damage the enemy, she was sure to win.
Exchanging her life to inflict only insignificant damage seemed like a losing move.
However, with infinite lives, for Skye, it was a sure win.
During her fights on the lower floors, after uncountable deaths, Skye had already mastered her origin ability.
Instead of a few seconds, it would only take her a few milliseconds to resurrect at full health.
Furthermore, each time she resurrected, it would be in the blind spot of the enemy, giving her time to attack.
Boom~
As Skye continued to attack, resurrecting in the blinds spot of her enemy, the guardian gradually accumulated serious injuries as its stamina and energy began to deplete.
Soon, grinding her enemy to death, Skye smiled at her hard-fought victory.
“A little more…”
…
In another alternate space, 161,004th floor.
“It’s finally the end…” Lilith sighed.
Unlike Skye, who had to fight such a torturous battle, Lilith felt like she was doing a laborious task.
Sealing enemies, Lilith had to fully concentrate on analyzing its essence.
After a few months of doing so, she already felt her head swelling up.
Especially since the stronger the enemy, the more laborious it is.
Looking at the guardian sealed by her, which had about 120 million magnitude of power, she felt relieved.
This was her last fight, the limit her sealing ability could handle.
Lilith only had 1.2 million power units, and her Absolute Seal required her to have at least 1 percent of the enemy’s power units before she could seal it.
The 161,004th-floor guardian was already past her limit; any more, and she would explode.
“Fortunately, I already completed my husband’s task…”
Maximus only required them to advance to the 160,000th floor; any more would be up to them to choose.
Opening the Virtual Tower panel, Lilith was ready to tap on surrender.
However, thinking of her husband, Lilith gritted her teeth and closed the panel.
“One more! I don’t want to disappoint my beloved…”
Choosing to continue the trial, Lilith looked through the countdown, ready to fight to the death.
…
161,005th floor:
Roar~
With a roar that shook the world, Lilith’s heart started pumping.
Looking at the sound wave crashing towards her, Lilith hurriedly sealed the space and teleported out.
While dodging, Lilith turned the limit of her Primordial Origin Eye, analyzing the essence of the enemy.
Tick~
Tick~
Tick~
As the clock ticked by, Lilith’s movement space began shrinking.
If she didn’t seal the enemy quickly she would die.
With her eyes turning red, bleeding out with blood, Lilith’s frown finally turned into a smile.
“You’re done…”
Waving her hand, Lilith quickly formed rune patterns to seal the life of her enemy.
The floor guardian seemed to notice the threat of the attack and hurriedly dodged.
Unfortunately, Lilith’s seal was pointed directly at its essence; every move, every breath, every thought of it was already anticipated.
Roar~
Unable to dodge, the floor guardian roared, resisting the seal acting upon its body.
Feeling the resistance, Lilith didn’t let go and pushed harder with all her strength.
Bleeding through her nose, mouth, and ears, Lilith’s body slowly began to crack.
“It’s useless…” Lilith muttered with a smile.
Roar~
With unwilling roars, the floor guardian’s life slowly faded as if its life is cut by at the source.
Looking at the enemy dying before her, Lilith’s smile widened.
“It’s over…”
“I didn’t disappoint you, right?…” Lilith muttered as her life also faded away.
