491. Resurrected (4)
[Enter the 41st floor of the Tower of Trials.]
[Difficulty – Hard]
[The theme of the trial is ‘Immortality and Mortality’.]
[I hope that there will be a satisfactory result after the asceticism chosen by the challenger. .]
When I got to the next floor, luckily, unlike the previous floor, higher level enemies and rewards appeared.
[The 41st floor trial begins.]
[Remaining time – 1 year]
[Trial breakthrough condition – Kill the three high-ranking gods who are performing a high-ranking ritual to obtain eternal life on Planet Tolten]
[Trial failure condition – Death of the challenger Or the end of the remaining time]
[Reward for passing the trial – Dream Sword of those who dreamed of immortality (SSS-)]
[Penalty for failing the trial – death] It was interesting.
Killing three high-ranking gods on a small planet who were performing a strange ritual to become something similar to an ancient god.
That was what I had set as a condition for clearing the 41st floor of the Tower of Trials, but it was still interesting in its own way, so it was fun to watch.
Well, in the end, everyone was killed without exception.
?I want to live! I am! I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die! Immortal! I want to become immortal!! I just wanted to live forever! Are you saying that’s wrong!!
?That’s ridiculous! I am I am! This means that it is a higher deity that is closest to the ancient deity!! You’re on the verge of becoming immortal, but you die? like this? I hate it I hate it!!
?Aaaaaaa…!! Stop it, stop it, stop it!! I don’t want to die!! God of transcendence and death!! To me! Please have mercy!! Ahhh!!
The idea of becoming immortal and gaining eternal life without becoming an ancient god should have been fun, but there’s no reason to keep watching.
‘You’re trying to become an immortal through expedient means without reaching the level of an ancient god on the subject of a high-level god…’
In order to become an ancient god, the three high-level gods did things that didn’t seem right, so I cleaned them out.
The idea was to forcibly gain life force close to immortality by linking the life force of the three planets without distinguishing between humans and beasts… Why
on earth would they experiment with something like that by risking the lives of others?
They fought over the prize of dominating three planets and getting infinitely closer to immortality, so they got along and killed them all, then devoured the spirits of the three higher-ranking gods and turned them into power.
[Use all possessed spirits to permanently increase stats.]
[Strength increased by 5.]
[Dexterity increased by 5.] [
Stamina increased by 5.] [Magic power increased by 8.]
[ Durability increased by 5.
Increased by 4.]
[Concept increased by 2.]
‘Well, it’s still not as bad as this guy and that guy trying to become immortal.’
Now, as I cleared the trials, I was also becoming accustomed to finding out the identity of the unique keywords.
[….]
[Error correction.]
[The official name of the unique keyword ‘Juk??’ is revealed as ‘God of Death.’]
“That’s the correct answer.”
Even if you dreamed of immortality and tried to obtain eternal life by force, what awaited you at the end was death.
‘Well, it wasn’t a difficult question to guess, so it would be natural to get the answer right.’
It was not difficult to realize that it was related to my own divine power of
In fact, if I had to choose the most outstanding qualification and talent to become a transcendent, it would be ‘death’ itself.
Thanks to this, after clearing the 41st floor trial of the Tower of Trials, I was able to find out the unique keyword and succeed in taking a step forward.
‘…As I climb the Tower of Trials, my senses become clearer as I discover my own unique keywords one by one.’
I felt a sense of reality as I became aware of the qualifications and talents I had to become a transcendent.
If you can take a few steps further and find out about your own potential, something will definitely change.
It was a fact that I could be sure of as an ancient deity and as a being who had once reached beyond the gate to become a transcendent by challenging ascension.
‘…Maybe the Tower of Trials didn’t allow me to see the unique keywords because they knew that I would get stronger the more I learned about myself.’
I could see why the Tower of Trials had made it impossible to see most of its unique keywords.
[Congratulations, you have surpassed the 41st floor of the Tower of Trials.]
[As a breakthrough reward, the ‘Dream Sword (SSS-) of those who dreamed of immortality’ will be sent to your inventory.] [
You have obtained ‘5000000 points’ as a breakthrough reward.]
[You have obtained ‘550000 SP’ as a breakthrough reward.]
[As an additional breakthrough reward, ‘Gem of Life (S+)’ will be sent to your inventory.]
[Go to the waiting room.]
Certainly.
“Really…”
So…
“I’m curious.”
Continuing to move forward, one step at a time, without stopping.
[The god of transcendence and death savors the realization with a grin.]
[?What on earth does it mean to realize that I have the qualifications and talents to become a transcendent? ]
That will be the most perfect guidepost for me to choose the path that will allow me to become a transcendent one day.
***
Clearing the ordeal itself was not that difficult.
[The trial on the 42nd floor begins.]
[Remaining time – 80 days]
[Conditions for passing the trial – Sprout hope in a world nearing destruction and provide survivors with a way to compensate for themselves]
[Conditions for trial failure – Death of the challenger Or the end of the remaining time]
[Reward for passing the trial – A seeker’s telescope looking up at the sky (SSS-)]
[Penalty for failing the trial – Death]
It was better than I thought.
[….]
[Error correction.]
[The official name of the unique keyword ‘Cho?#’ is revealed as ‘God of Transcendence’.]
‘…Yes, there is a God of Death, but there is no way there is not a God of Transcendence.’
Is it because I have learned my own tricks?
As I climbed the Tower of Trials, I gained momentum in laying the foundation to become a transcendent.
Should we really say that it is a device for raising the talent and qualifications to become a transcendent to the limit?
Contrary to our concerns, the Tower of Trials guided us on the path we needed to take to become a transcendent.
‘A place of choice. And unique keywords. Both are devices to raise the qualifications and talents to become a transcendent to the limit… Is it natural?’
Perhaps the Tower of Trials also doesn’t want this side to get stronger, but it seems like it can’t give any more penalties than this.
‘The only penalty that the Tower of Trials can impose on a challenger is to adjust things like the difficulty of clearing the trials, and the upper and lower limits are also set.’
Well, if you think about the actions of the Tower of Trials so far, there must be a limit even if it grants low-level trials.
Therefore, it was clear that the Tower of Trials could no longer restrain me from becoming stronger.
There was a high possibility that the only thing that could be done was to coordinate to avoid encountering powerful people such as ancient deities, and at most only encounter enemies on the edge of higher level deities.
However, even that doesn’t feel like a particularly big penalty anymore.
‘There is no problem at all in developing the foundation to become a transcendent even without fighting an ancient god.’
The 42nd floor trial presented by the Tower of Trials also did not appear to have achieved a hierarchy of deities, but it was better than killing multiple high-level deities.
It is something that must give hope for life and provide a way for self-sufficiency in a dying world.
That alone made it possible for this side to secure believers by attracting and leading people from all over the dying planet.
?Savior…!! The old savior came down from heaven to save everyone! It’s definitely true!
?Ahh! Oh God! Please take pity on us and shine a bright light on our future filled with darkness! So I beg you!
?Ha hahaha! It’s a miracle! It’s a miracle! You can buy it! You can buy it! If we follow him, I’m sure we can all survive!!
Originally, I wasn’t particularly interested in creating a religious group, but the story changed after I obtained the heavenly mythology
‘It’s enormous.’
As the heavenly myth
‘It’s ridiculous.’
Just by improving the natural environment on a planet on the verge of destruction and teaching his followers some lessons, everything worked out surprisingly well and he was able to get what he wanted after a few days.
[Congratulations, you have surpassed the 42nd floor of the Tower of Trials.]
[As a breakthrough reward, ‘A Seeker’s Telescope Looking Up at the Sky (SSS-)’ will be sent to your inventory.]
[You have obtained ‘6000000 points’ as a breakthrough reward. ]
[You have obtained ‘650000 SP’ as a breakthrough reward.]
[As an additional breakthrough reward, ‘Light-filled Savior’s Sword (S+)’ will be sent to your inventory.]
[Go to the waiting room.]
‘With this, you can now use one of the unique keywords . Have you figured out most of the things that seem quite important?…’
And…
‘Then the rest is easy.’
Just like that, I walked to the next floor with a smile on my face.
Perhaps what needs to be done next may just be a more monotonous repetitive task than now.
Not only have you figured out almost all of the unique keywords that seem important as a venue for selection, but you’ve also learned the trick of identifying unique keywords.
Maybe you’ll be lucky enough to find more than one unique keyword in one trial.
In short, it meant that from the next floor onwards, you would be able to get the correct answer without difficulty even without thinking deeply about the unique keywords.
It was obvious that boring things that didn’t require much thought would happen over and over again.
‘It must be boring.’
I didn’t want to think about it too much because I was sure it would be labor that was far from enjoyable.
***
Time passed quickly.
[….]
[Unique keyword ‘Blessed? ‘ will be officially named ‘Avenger’.]
[Unique keyword ‘? The official name of ‘#’ who craves power is revealed as ‘one who craves power’…]
[Receiver of the unique keyword ‘God’s gun#’ ‘ is the ‘body favored by the divine’ and its official name is Gong….]
It was possible to obtain enlightenment corresponding to the majority of a total of 17 unique keywords.
[Congratulations, you have surpassed the 43rd floor of the Tower of Trials.]
[As a breakthrough reward, the ‘Hell Lion Emblem (S-)’ will be sent to your inventory.]
[You have obtained ‘5000000 points’ as a breakthrough reward.]
[Breakthrough reward You have obtained ‘400000 SP’.]
[As an additional breakthrough reward, ‘Parchment of Hell (A-)’ will be sent to your inventory.]
[Go to the waiting room.]
[….]
The 43rd floor of the Tower of Trials is It was about avenging a person who died in hell, and it was better than I thought.
It wasn’t so bad to visit and kill the lords of hell who prided themselves on being strong, one by one.
Because it was possible to steal all the items belonging to those who claimed to be the lords of hell, without leaving out a single item.
It took just two hours for this side to achieve the trial clear conditions and move on to the next floor.
[Congratulations, you have surpassed the 44th floor of the Tower of Trials…]
[As a breakthrough reward, ‘World Ruler’s Pendant (SS-)’ will be sent to your inventory.]
[You have obtained ‘5300000 points’ as a breakthrough reward. ]
[You have obtained ‘480000 SP’ as a breakthrough reward.]
[As an additional breakthrough reward, ‘Native Deity Fragment (S-)’ will be sent to your inventory.]
[Go to the waiting room.]
[….]
The 44th floor of the Tower of Trials was to become the ruler of a planet by subduing the indigenous gods that existed around the world and establishing a master-servant relationship.
An hour later, he subdued numerous native deities with overwhelming force, became the world ruler, obtained a concept deity representing the planet, and moved on to the next level.
[Congratulations on breaking through the 45th floor of the Tower of Trials….]
[As a reward for breaking through, the ‘Blue Jewel of the Beloved of God (SS-)’ will be sent to your inventory.]
[Obtain ‘5500000 points’ as a reward for breaking through. You did.]
[You have obtained ‘500000 SP’ as a breakthrough reward.]
[As an additional breakthrough reward, ‘Insane Saint’s Twisted and Contaminated Pendant (S-)’ will be sent to your inventory.]
[Go to the waiting room.]
[….]
For the 45th floor of the Tower of Trials, the condition for clearing the trial was to be recognized by the nine gods on the continent as a priest of a planet, and it was easy.
To be favored by God.
Isn’t this a specialty of winning people’s hearts through persuasion and conversation?
In the end, after two days of personally visiting, persuading, and talking to nine gods who were presumed to be official deities, I was able to clear the ordeal by making them my deity apostles.
Among the nine gods, none of them missed the golden opportunity to become our god’s apostles and accepted it.
Live or die.
If you had to choose between the two, wouldn’t everyone choose the latter?
That wasn’t that surprising, since formal godhood was no different.
“….”
and.
Chak-.
[Entered the waiting room on the 46th floor.]
‘I think it’s clear to you now why you need to learn each unique keyword one by one.’
Realized.
What is the purpose of realizing your own talent and qualifications to become a transcendent?
It was not like a classification tag that the Tower of Trials had arbitrarily attached to train challengers to become transcendents, but it was literally a path to enlightenment that one had to go through at least once to become a transcendent.
‘Is it a structure in which the level of divinity and soul increases simply by recognizing and refining one’s qualifications and talents to become a transcendent?’
Transcendent.
In order to reach the virtual realm that exists beyond the ancient godhead, one must realize one’s own potential.
In this way, he selected and refined his qualifications and talents to become a transcendent, engraved the door of ascension into his soul, and used his body as the key to advance to the beyond.
“…In a way, this may be said to be a path to engrave the gate of ascension into the soul without the myth
I, who possess the mythic
Is that why?
Perhaps, since we have already attempted to ascend to heaven through the myth
Unlike game characters who level up and learn skills one after another to become stronger, it feels like leveling up and learning skills at will while already maximally strong.
It’s like developing a game character’s skill tree only after maxing out all the stats with Cheat Engine.
The order has changed.
‘But regardless, it wasn’t meaningless.’
step.
Even if there was a difference in the order, it was necessary to realize one’s qualifications and talents to become a transcendent and to approach the essence.
The door to ascension and the key to ascension that I obtained through the myth
‘Apart from the myth
It’s not even just that.
Unlike when the path to becoming a transcendent was forcibly obtained through the myth
It feels as if light is shining on the dark path beyond the Gate of Ascension so that we can safely reach the point of transcendence.
Perhaps, if the door to ascension were opened again, unlike last time, there was a high probability that one would be able to move forward to some extent without losing one’s way even in the beginning of ascension.
That’s what it means to realize the qualifications and talents to become a transcendent and prepare a path.
But that’s why I was confident again.
“….”
In order for this person to become a transcendental person, he has no choice but to abandon his own ego, no matter what.
‘No matter which path you take, what awaits you at the end is the onset of ascension and the abandonment of consciousness.’
I closed my eyes and looked at the newly engraved paths of light beyond the Gate of Ascension.
Even at the gate of ascension, talents and qualifications such as ‘natural talent’, ‘god of transcendence’, and ‘god of death’ became paths of light and served as a stepping stone to move forward.
However, even the path made of light called qualifications and talent to become a transcendent becomes cut off and disappears at some point.
Very firmly, as if ‘the next path’ is not allowed under any circumstances.
It was bittersweet, but it was natural.
“You’re cold.”
Reality is cold.
No matter what qualifications and talents you have to become a transcendent, it is impossible to move forward without a huge vessel that can contain the universe itself.
In the end, the decision must be made at the end of the path to ascension created by miraculous talents and qualifications.
Will you move forward and give up yourself to become a transcendent, or will you give up being a transcendent and remain an ancient godhead?
No other options exist beyond the Gate of Ascension.
‘Even if we realize and add the talents and qualifications of the transcendent to the myth
But…
‘But that’s enough.’
Why?
Rather than despair and frustration, I felt a strange sense of anticipation mixed with excitement and anxiety.
It wasn’t a bad thing that beyond the Gate of Ascension, there was a way to stand, even if just for a moment.
That path of light could serve as a pedestal to support the new method of ascension that this side has devised.
‘It’s not meaningless.’
I have no intention of entrusting myself to a gamble that has no chance of winning.
And in that case, the path of light, which is comprised of the qualifications and talents needed to become a transcendent person, will become a more important support than you think.
Realizing that, I smiled in anticipation and started getting ready to go to the next floor.
‘Maybe I can get what I want faster than I thought.’
and.
“I’m looking forward to it. I have to finish the compensation check quickly and go to the next floor…”
The moment he was about to finish the compensation check quickly with a satisfied smile on his face.
Dudduddu???!
‘uh?’
It was then.
[….]
[Conditions met.]
[The Tower of Trials confirmed that the total number of people who broke through the 45th floor ordeal exceeded 100.]
Suddenly, a strange event occurred as so many system messages appeared that they filled the field of vision.
‘This can’t be…’
Although I haven’t seen a phrase like this in the Tower of Trials recently, I know from experience what it means.
‘Is that it?’
It’s none other than…
[A major expansion of the system begins.]
The Tower of Trials began to expand the system itself at a time that we had never expected.
