Returning From Level 900-Chapter 248 - Capturing The Demon

Zhu Xingguo resembled a robot cat.

He was always selling things, and he wanted to keep a record of everything he saw in Fair Exchange.

As a result, his information was as messy as a garbage dump.

He even sold stones, branches, soil, abandoned steel plates, iron sheets, and cement blocks on the side of the road.

He did not need sanitation workers on the roads he walked on, and the soil was reduced by two layers.

However, at the same time…

There were also numerous valuable treasures and tools.

There were two hundred-year-old wild ginsengs among the heavenly materials and earthly treasures he had taken from the State Preceptor.

Those were equivalent to eight stalks.

He plucked a few ginseng roots, washed them with Body Health Water, and chewed them in his mouth.

He then pulled out a few more and stuffed them into Ren Ruoruo’s mouth.

As for why they only ate the roots and not the ginseng…

There was no need to ask; it was definitely for his master.

Zhu Xingguo immediately took the washed wild ginseng to Wang Wen and said, “Master, I realized that this thing seems to increase my physical strength! Quick! Try it!

Wang Wen picked up the large ginseng and took a bite.

The more he ate, the brighter his eyes became.

He finished the entire stick.

His heart was racing so fast that his neck felt hot, as if his blood vessels were on the verge of bursting.

He did not even see the shadow of the Broken Might level in his fighting stamina.

Pushing away the ginseng, deer antler, bear gall, and Snow Lotus Lingzhi that Zhu Xingguo handed over, he helplessly sighed and said, “Forget it; my physique is too weak. I can’t rush it.”

Those aged herbs cost a minimum of one million points.

Zhu Xingguo did not have enough money to buy it all the time, so he did not eat any.

It was better to save them for life-saving purposes and not waste them.

He rested until the final few minutes of the timed decryption.

Wang Wen opened the puzzle and cleared it.

Everyone resumed their journey.

It was Saturday, about four in the morning.

The 610th floor was a minor extreme level.

There was no match.

Fortunately, he could use the world energy point to repair it.

The three healed the injuries they had sustained on the 600th floor.

In high spirits, he opened the next level.

Wang Wen had felt a little strained since he reached the 600th floor.

The enemies in the extreme levels were becoming increasingly powerful.

The tower’s methods were becoming increasingly unreasonable.

Even superpowers had appeared.

With his strength, it would be very difficult to maintain an absolute crushing state.

Even if he could make some progress in seconds, it would take time if he went all out.

The rate of his mental recovery was extremely slow. He would need at least 16 to 17 hours of rest to fully recover if he did not rely on any external force or world energy points.

Furthermore, there were some powerful opponents, such as the 500-point man, against whom he might not be able to win even if he used all of his strength.

After all, the team had fewer members.

Their transcendent skills were also at a low level.

The skills needed to cool down after only a few uses.

The burst damage was good, but it did not have enough durability.

It was extremely difficult to advance many levels in a week without wasting time.

Other tower-climbing groups had a full five-person team. When they came across a strong enemy, they would take turns using their big moves, then hide and wait for the big moves to cool down before returning to play.

These teams might even be able to add one more floor per week.

They could even pause at a specific level to gradually collect the items.

There was not much of a push to rush through the tower.

However…

Wang Wen had no intention of stopping on the 600th floor.

The next floor was the human world record of 659th floor.

No one knew what his goal was.

Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo could no longer think; all they knew was to bury their heads and follow him.

On the 610th floor.

A minor extreme level.

The surrounding fog dispersed.

Wang Wen and the other two found themselves in a cloud-filled open plain.

There was a huge vermillion beam behind them, the top of which could not be seen.

Someone approached the three of them.

There was no progress above his head.

Wang Wen was still focused on the person who had arrived.

That person did not look like a normal creature.

It was covered in scales and had horns and beards on its head.

It was also amazing that such a demonic thing was not part of their progress.

The person walked to the front.

“Just nice; we’re still short of three people. After a while, you guys will follow my team to the mortal world to capture demons.” He instructed them as if he were high and mighty.

Capture demons?

Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo looked at each other.

They felt that something was wrong.

However, Wang Wen did not say anything, so they just waited quietly.

Not long after that…

Many soldiers in silver armor appeared in formation on the clouds.

The scaled monster waved at Wang Wen and the other two before flying into the formation and taking off.

Wang Wen examined the seemingly empty cloud surface.

He gathered his spiritual strength and lifted the three of them into the air to join the formation.

Nobody seemed to mind; even the soldiers went about their business.

The army marched out.

Looking at the route, they appeared to be descending.

They kept sinking lower.

A tall cliff appeared in front of them after passing through several layers of colored clouds.

There were lush green fruit trees and vegetation as far as the eye could see, creating a vibrant scene.

There was a waterfall on the cliff.

Monkeys were jumping and running around on both sides of the waterfall.

They noticed a large group of people descending from the sky.

The monkeys shrieked in fear and rushed into the waterfall.

Wang Wen and the other two looked at each other.

Was that Mount Huaguo’s Waterfall Cave?

Capture demons?

Zhu Xingguo and Ren Ruoruo looked at Wang Wen for his opinion.

However, Wang Wen only frowned.

He had seen it.

Those agile monkeys only had 0.001 progress points.

Did they have to deal with characters from the legends?

He looked at the extremely realistic scene in front of him.

Wang Wen was not in a hurry to push the progress, and for the time being, he followed the army and observed in secret.

His observation chilled his heart.

The scaled monster waved its hand, and the army, which crashed into the cliffs, threw out countless magical treasures of all shapes and sizes.

For a moment…

Mud, dust, and gravel flew everywhere, and broken branches and leaves were strewn in the splashing water.

The lovely and utopian scenery was utterly destroyed.

It was like a scorched earth after a war.

It would sob silently and complain about the pain it had experienced.

A shadow flew out of the waterfall.

Its body was covered in tattered clothes.

It had the appearance of a human, but it had a pointed mouth, monkey cheeks, and long fur.

It still seemed like the State Preceptor was a much stronger enemy.

The one in front of him did not seem fully evolved.

On the other hand, Ren Ruoruo felt very close to that individual.

Who else could it be other than the Monkey King, the self-proclaimed great sage?

Wang Wen looked at the progress value given by the drone.

The progress on the monkey’s head was astonishing.

It had nothing to do with how high it was.

It was only a measly five points!

That scene made Wang Wen’s heart skip a beat.

Was that a fake monkey?

He did not have time to think.

The monkey and the army had already begun fighting.

The army was beaten to a pulp.

The scaled monster was almost beaten to tears.

The monkey looked at Wang Wen and the other two; it grinned. It passed the three of them and only attacked the people behind them.

It did not take long for the army to be defeated back into the sky.

Before leaving, the scaled monster even shouted, “You’re so arrogant! You will be executed when the 100,000 soldiers of the heavenly court arrive!”

Wang Wen did not return to the sky with the scaled monster.

He saw how brave the monkey was.

He was as powerful as the legends said.

The probability of it not being fake was higher.

The strange progress points in front of him, coupled with the sudden appearance of a large number of enemies with super high progress on the 600th floor… f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦

It was thought-provoking.
