Chapter 723: Chapter 554: Lei Lei An’s Breakthrough (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

(I have a cold, coming down with a serious fever, and a heavy head. I just about managed to get through ten thousand words and now it’s time for me to sleep. I can’t go on. If you’re enjoying the story so far and have monthly tickets, some support would be appreciated. Thank you.)

No one knows, however, whether this New World is the perfect Upper Realm of legend.

Although Su Yu has successfully evolved to the rank of a Third Level Bronze Warrior and the entrance to the New World, The Heavenly Ladder, has appeared, he himself doesn’t seem too excited.

In such a short time, after fighting all this way, he is starting to feel a deep sense of exhaustion, both physically and mentally.

The hundreds of survivors look to Su Yu. Admiration is clear in many of their eyes. Among these people, some begin to climb up the Heavenly Ladder. Ada reminds Su Yu, "Go ahead, I think the appearance of the Heavenly Ladder steps has a time limit. If you don’t ascend now, it might disappear."

He grunts in acknowledgement, steeling himself against an indescribable sense of exhaustion as he, Qin Jiagui, Ma Ziye and the others begin their ascent.

His exhaustion isn’t physical; it’s mental. Starting from the moment he entered the Bronze Tower World, he’s been fighting non-stop, with almost no respite. Even the strongest would tire from this.

When he steps onto The Heavenly Ladder and reaches the world above the clouds, Su Yu quickly realizes that the ladder is gradually disappearing, while the damaged Hungry Ghost City below is slowly being repaired.

Observing from afar, Su Yu makes a realization. This world inside the Bronze Tower seems to have the ability to self-repair. If the ruined Hungry Ghost City is repaired, then could the slain Ghost King also revive, awaiting the next wave of people, to be killed again and start a new path of entrance?

If this cycle is to repeat over and over again, then this so-called Ghost King is not naturally born but a being created to guard the entrance. Only those who manage to defeat this creature are worthy to leave the Hungry Ghost World and enter a higher New World.

With new understanding, Su Yu suspects that the Bioqueen was also created similarly under some form of will, designed to induce an accelerated evolution among the people entering the Bronze Tower. Only the strongest will be eligible to leave the Bronze Tower and enter the true New World.

This is similar to the Newbie Forest, where only those with enough strength could find their way out. So too with the Bronze Tower. If it wasn’t for Su Yu, these Bronze Warriors wouldn’t even be able to handle a Biochemical Female, let alone the Ghost King.

Should they fail against the Ghost King, The Heavenly Ladder would not appear, and they would be trapped forever in this horrific world, either meet their end or grow stronger.

At the end of The Heavenly Ladder, it feels as if they have crossed into another world. Above the clouds, everything once more becomes real. The Heavenly Ladder and the dark, terrifying Hungry Ghost World have disappeared. Now, a vast, blue sky and towering trees fill everyone’s eyes. The fresh air, markedly different from the Bio-beast World and the eerie Hungry Ghost World, fills them with a sense of exhilaration.

One of them yells with excitement, "This must be the true Upper Realm! We’ve finally reached the Upper Realm!"

"That’s right, we must have entered the Upper Realm!"

The Bronze Warriors, all several hundred of them, were ecstatic, some even bursting into tears. They had been trapped in the horrifying original world for far too long.

Su Yu finds a spot of grass and sits down. He has a lot to think about.

Having achieved the Third Level of Bronze Warrior, Su Yu’s strength has greatly exceeded those Bronze Warriors around him. But it’s still not enough. He needs to become even more powerful.

The evolution of a Bronze Warrior is quite similar to that of a Black Iron Warrior, the path of evolution is mostly the same. At the third level of Bronze Warrior evolution, the bronze scales spread from his left arm to the chest, replacing the black scales. When he was a Black Iron Warrior, energy sufficed for his evolution to the fourth level. But beyond that, he needed comprehension or understanding to evolve.

Now, it seems the Bronze Warrior evolution from Zero-Level to Third Level just needs energy. However, as the advancement increases, will the Bronze Warrior need to comprehend something for the evolution to proceed?

Ma Ziye seats herself beside Su Yu. She has evolved to a Second-Level Bronze Warrior. Combined with her special soul weapon, her strength has increased dramatically, especially now that she can silently follow Su Yu and help him-it makes her feel really happy.

"Thanks for your help, Ziye," Su Yu says with a nod. When attempting to kill the Ghost King, if Ma Ziye’s Soul Weapon hadn’t held it back, killing the Ghost King would have been much harder for Su Yu, perhaps even at a high cost.
