After a brief preparation, Ye Chuan led the group straight to the High Tower.
The area in front of the tower's entrance was still bustling with activity.
However, the super martial artists who had witnessed Ye Chuan's loli-transformation magic yesterday now treated him like the plague. They scrambled to step aside, forcefully clearing a wide path through the crowded throng, not even daring to look up.
Don't look at him!
Especially don't look at the girls behind him!
You'll turn into a loli!!
Of course, this didn't rule out some people who intentionally squeezed forward wanting to be feminized... well, it was much faster than taking medicine, and cuter too.
Lan Xiaoke walked beside him. Seeing this grand reception, she puffed out her chest against her backpack, looking thoroughly smug as she borrowed his prestige.
The group didn't linger at the entrance and stepped right through the tower's main doors.
With a flash of white light before their eyes, they were instantly teleported to the first floor.
"Where's the next floor?" Luo Xi looked around curiously. The internal structure of this tower was indeed quite fascinating.
"No, let me see if I can teleport us inside the tower." Ye Chuan then attempted to use group teleportation.
As a white light flared up, Ye Chuan realized he had succeeded.
When they opened their eyes again, they were greeted by boundless, deep blue seawater. The salty, fishy sea breeze blew against their faces, and beneath their feet were only scattered reefs poking out of the water.
From the deep sea in the distance came the occasional low, guttural roars of sea monsters. Massive shadows darted through the water—this was the extremely perilous oceanic environment of the third floor!
"We're back here again." Lan Xiaoke had zero fondness for this place.
After all, Ye Chuan had used her as chum.
Right at that moment, a massive shadow appeared on the sea surface. It seemed a sea monster had approached, biding its time within the darkness.
"Xiaoke, get 'em."
Terrified that Ye Chuan would throw her in as chum again, Lan Xiaoke tightly gripped her pink boxing gloves and leaped right up. With a single punch, she smashed the sea monster—which was comparable to a Golden Core stage beast—back into the sea, kicking up a massive splash!
"Ha, is that it?"
"The monsters are indeed much stronger than the ones outside. Chuanchuan, why do you think this high tower appeared here?" Luo Xi couldn't help but ask.
"Who knows." Ye Chuan didn't understand either.
"I also don't understand why there are weird instances in our world," Tian Xiaotian chimed in, equally puzzled.
She had inexplicably been thrust into an infinite-flow world. If Ye Chuan hadn't saved her, Xiaogua probably would have just endlessly looped in that world until death.
"Wow, what a big fish, so scary." Ye Yue, who was actually the most well-endowed, saw the dozen-meter-long giant sea monster and immediately hugged Ye Chuan's arm.
"Brother, I'm scared."
Saying that, she hugged him even tighter, as if afraid Ye Chuan wouldn't feel the hills pressing against him.
"Uh, don't be scared." Although Ye Chuan wanted to say something, he ultimately kept quiet and just gently patted Ye Yue's back.
The monsters were the ones who should be scared of you.
Wang Yanran, meanwhile, was gathering intelligence on their surroundings; after all, it could still be useful for the Alliance.
Ye Chuan quickly locked onto the location of the entrance to the fourth floor in an instant.
It was at the bottom of the sea, after all.
He raised his hand—a wave of energy shot out, directly splitting the sea surface to create a waterless corridor. The sides were then frozen solid by Ye Chuan, and at the end of the corridor lay a portal.
The terrifying aura it emitted made the surrounding sea monsters that were still approaching swim away as if running for their lives once they sensed it.
"Let's go. Let's check out the fourth floor."
The group walked along the corridor to the portal.
The monster guarding this door had already been dealt with by Ye Chuan earlier. It was said that the guardian monsters would resurrect, but Ye Chuan wasn't too sure how long the respawn cycle took.
"Let's go."
"Moving out, to the fourth floor."
White light flashed once more. The moment they landed, a scorching wave of heat hit them in the face.
Their eyes were met with an endless golden desert. A merciless sun hung overhead, baking the sand on the ground until it was searing hot. The air was distorted like water ripples, and even breathing brought a burning sensation.
The quicksand beneath their feet looked smooth, but in reality, a moment's inattention would cause one to sink in. Beneath it were densely packed spikes, gleaming with a cold, eerie light.
"Just a moment ago it was blue skies and the ocean, and now... the environment here is so harsh." Luo Xi raised her hand to block the glaring sunlight, frowning slightly.
"Even the flow of my spiritual energy feels a bit sluggish."
The environment here seemed to have a suppressing effect on cultivators.
Luo Xi channeled her spiritual energy, and soon her body temperature began to drop. After all, Luo Xi majored in the ice attribute, so she would be fine.
"Something's not right..." Tian Xiaotian crouched down, her fingertips touching the scorching sand. Her intuition, honed over years, was extremely sharp.
"There are things in the sand, and they've been staring at us."
Ye Chuan was also a bit surprised.
The moment his divine sense swept over the area just now, he clearly perceived that the monsters dormant in this desert were at least around level forty, which corresponded to the Nascent Soul stage!
This was no joke.
Ever since the spatial rifts appeared in the real world, the highest level of monsters pouring in was only at the Golden Core stage, which was already enough to leave the super martial artist factions of various countries battered and exhausted.
A Nascent Soul stage monster in the real world would be a terrifying existence capable of single-handedly annihilating a small country. No wonder the two top-tier level thirty squads that came in before didn't even leave behind intact corpses.
"Brother, something is coming!" Ye Yue also seemed to sense something.
Because the soles of her feet were also covered in densely packed eyes.
As soon as she spoke, the originally calm sand dunes suddenly exploded!
Several giant sand worms, over a dozen meters long, violently burst out of the sand. Their bodies were covered in thick cuticles, and their mouthparts were filled with densely packed fangs. A foul-smelling sandstorm rushed at their faces, and the aura of every single worm was firmly locked at the early Nascent Soul stage!
Not only that, but in the surrounding desert, countless sand scorpions drilled out from the quicksand, their tail stingers gleaming with pitch-black venom.
There were also humanoid sand monsters formed from yellow sand, gripping sand blades in their hands. Their scarlet eyes stared fixedly at the group. Numbering in the hundreds, they completely surrounded the party!
"My God, so many?"
"The aura of these monsters is more than just a tier stronger than the sea monsters on the third floor!"
Lan Xiaoke went numb.
Before, even when she had a level advantage, she'd get beaten up. Now that she was the one being suppressed by level, wouldn't it be a disaster?
It was going to be another brutal beating.
"It's fine." Ye Chuan smiled and raised his hand to snap his fingers.
The Human Emperor's Flag appeared, then expanded rapidly in the wind. A majestic, sun-like pressure instantly spread out, forming a massive domain that enveloped the entire desert.
After all, Ye Chuan had absorbed a wisp of aura from an Ascension stage expert to serve as the main soul, allowing him to suppress any units with a lower tier than himself.
The originally fierce and vicious sand worms, sand scorpions, and sand monsters, the moment the Human Emperor's Flag's domain unfolded, seemed as if their bones had been extracted. Their auras plummeted instantly.
Even their bodies stiffened significantly. Their scarlet eyes were filled with terror as they frantically retreated, desperately trying to escape this domain.
At the same time, Ye Chuan twitched his fingertips. Several streams of soft white light surged from his origin magic, landing precisely on Luo Xi, Lan Xiaoke, and the others, instantly maxing out their buffs.
"Alright, now we can play."
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks!

A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force!

With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy.

I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
