Chapter 702 - 319: Formation of the Divine Kingdom

If the previous Miracle Walker’s scheme helped Wu Chang trap the All-Knowing Crystal, allowing Wu Chang to forgive previous grievances and consider Miracle Walker to truly understand human nature.

Now delivering this Pillar of the Divine Kingdom, capable of supporting a large Divine Kingdom, is enough to make him declare Miracle Walker as an eternal deity.

Setting aside the grudge with the Bright Society, his current primary concern is the excessive erosion of the real world, which is gradually merging into the Abyssal Game.

The All-Knowing Crystal had already disclosed a solution to him on how to stop or mitigate the abyss’s erosion of the real world.

Acquire three Pillars of the Present World and their corresponding temporary management authority of the Desolate Realm, along with the Power of Faith from at least three planes, to construct a large Secret Divine Kingdom, only then there might be a slim chance to turn the tide.

The greatest challenge in securing this slim chance lies in the method for constructing a large Divine Kingdom, and Miracle Walker directly provided him with the answer to this most difficult question.

Compared to squeezing out a little knowledge from the All-Knowing Crystal by consuming a bit of Primordial Spirit Core, Miracle Walker’s display of understanding human nature and granting desires is more like true omniscience.

Miracle Walker’s control over human desires is nearly mind-reading, making Wu Chang worry that she might even read his bank password if they wished.

Fortunately, he genuinely has no interest in Grace; otherwise, any stray thoughts might be seized upon by her.

She can even discern his desire to build an Earthly Divine Kingdom, so how can she not grasp his preferences?

Grace’s transformation into that appearance was surely intentional; he almost fell for her trap.

Wu Chang sighed at the malice in human hearts as he exited the Settlement Space.

Leaving the Settlement Space, his experience points converted into levels.

Player nickname: Doesn’t Eat Beef.

Player Level: 30 (29560/-)

(44560/15000)——(29560/-)

After seven dungeons, Wu Chang finally reached Level 30, arriving at the end of the Desolate Realm.

Though using "finally" and "seven dungeons" together seems odd in the Abyssal Game, to Wu Chang, the time spent in seven dungeons felt longer than his wasted four years in college.

After reaching the level cap of the Desolate Realm, instead of further leveling up, a notification appeared before his eyes.

"Player 4444444 has reached Level 30, initiating Abyssal Ascension Assessment."

"Player’s average dungeon exploration rate in Desolate Realm dungeons is: 100%; average dungeon rating is: Perfect."

"Player’s comprehensive rating in the Desolate Realm is: Perfect."

"Based on the comprehensive rating, the player receives 10 transitional dungeons, which will grant 20% extra output and reduce dungeon difficulty by 10%. Unused extra dungeons will accumulate and take effect in the Realm of Reason."

"After all transitional dungeons are exhausted, if the max-level player continues staying in the Desolate Realm, dungeon rewards will be reduced to 60%, and dungeon difficulty will continuously increase."

"After reaching max level, excess experience points cannot accumulate and will convert into free Attribute Points at a rate of current experience points/1000. When the player’s All Attributes Points exceed 300, a Plane Ascension dungeon will be unlocked."

"Detected player’s current comprehensive Attribute Points: 866, meeting the Plane Ascension requirement."

"The player is requested to initiate the Ascension dungeon within three dungeons; exceeding the time limit will temporarily seal the transitional dungeon."

Wu Chang gazed at his 29,000 experience points converted into free Attribute Points, falling into a brief silence.

From the system prompt that appeared, after players reach Level 30, the Ascension dungeon won’t immediately unlock and must wait until comprehensive attributes exceed 300 points to meet the Ascension conditions.

Before this, players will enter a transitional period, continuing to enter dungeons in the Desolate Realm like ordinary players, but the experience obtained will convert into free Attribute Points at a 1:1000 ratio.

However, this doesn’t mean max-level players can linger in the Desolate Realm indefinitely; after a short transitional dungeon, the rewards players receive in the Desolate Realm will decrease by 40%, while the difficulty of arranged dungeons continuously increases.

In the Silent Route Dungeon, Wu Chang encountered a few max-level players who clearly didn’t belong to the current standard, implying those players had stayed too long in the Desolate Realm, hence had lined up in the reality dungeon.

Only super players like the Painter, strong and possessing numerous items, could remain stuck in the Desolate Realm for five years.

Counting 24 dungeons annually over five years, even if the Painter achieved a passing rating in each dungeon, he could amass an extra 360 Attribute Points.

This is truly a numerical monster.

In contrast, the threshold for Realm of Reason players is 300 Attribute Points, similar to him, with not much difference.

After confirming the Ascension threshold, the next issue he faces is point allocation.

He currently has 39 free Attribute Points, and allocating them is a dilemma.

Putting all into Inspiration would be enough to meet the activation requirement for the "Virtual Reality Interactor."

But the issue is, will the second reincarnation bring a qualitative change to his current combat strength?

He took out the Mortal Poison, cleared the Cursed status, and together with absorbing the Erosion Core from the Cursed dungeon, brought the accumulated Energy to 15/50.

He was still far from the second extraction of Leman Authority.

The Root Knight mutated into the Knight of Strife because the reincarnation completion and Authority extraction happened simultaneously, and he couldn’t be sure if separating the two could still allow Authority and reincarnation to merge.

If you don’t understand, you must ask, and he just happened to carry a living search engine.

After signing a one-way Soul Contract with the All-Knowing Crystal, he gained a deeper understanding of it.

The Soul Contract it demands, in essence, is akin to integrating with Miracle Walker, both are means for deeper abyssal existence to resurrect.

After signing the Soul Contract, his relationship with the All-Knowing Crystal is akin to that of Miracle Walker and Amber, of mutual equality.
