Returning From Level 900-Chapter 249 - A Spy

If the World Tower had a mind of its own.

They would not want them to climb to the higher floors.

It would be at a loss as to how to deal with Wang Wen and the others.

It would not give them any progress.

It was afraid that if they stayed in a checkpoint, they would develop and exploit loopholes in exchange for countless points, leveling up their transcendent skills to an unappealing level.

They hoped to get progress points.

They were not afraid of how broken they would be. They would endure it, no matter how hard it was. They would climb higher as if they were rushing to the top.

They would choose the lesser devil.

They had tried all kinds of methods along the way, and the World Tower seemed to have finally made up its mind not to give them any progress.

They could not climb the tower without progress!

They could not climb anymore! f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂

In reality.

That was a move that cut off their advancement.

It had indeed disrupted Wang Wen’s rhythm.

Even the great Monkey King had only five advancement points?

Why were they still climbing?

From the looks of it…

The high progress on the 600th floor was probably a unique counter. It was as if the World Tower had really set its eyes on the three of them and given them special treatment.

That was enough to blow his own trumpet.

After all, even Wang Wen had never seen or heard of such a phenomenon in his previous life.

To be exact, it was unprecedented for so many people to progress so fast on a single level in the entire history of humanity.

Otherwise, they would never have gotten the hidden reward of breaking through the 1000th floor so early.

There would always be powerful people among the climbers. With so much progress concentrated on a few people, it might not be difficult to reach the top in one attempt.

Climbing the tower and seeing so many new things he had never seen before was an eye-opener for Wang Wen.

On second thought, he felt he had overlooked something.

The 600th-floor progression was a required one.

There was a familiar feeling.

It was the same as when he discovered a way to study the Immortal Stone on the 500th floor. He had not seen any progress in a half-day, but it had suddenly become free and alive.

They would be able to clear the game at the time by simply killing small monsters.

He urged them to leave.

That was the calculation.

The State Preceptor’s progress was only 90 points.

Plus, it was on the 500th floor.

The 600th floor had tried to chase them away!

Most of the enemies had more than 90 points, and the leader even had 500 points!

Comparing the two, it was clear which was more important.

Were there greater benefits at that stage?

Was the tower so anxious to chase them away because it was afraid that Wang Wen would win again?

Wang Wen narrowed his eyes and smiled mysteriously.

He tried meditating to test the energy generated by that level, but he did not bother about it after realizing that it was still magic.

He quietly watched as the monkey chased the people away and came to him, baring its teeth and asking, “Why aren’t you doing anything?”

Ren Ruoruo was a little excited. If it were not for the fact that her Great Sage was still on cooldown, she would have called him the fake Monkey King.

Zhu Xingguo was busy collecting crushed stones, soil, branches, and leaves from the mountain and bringing them to the Fair Exchange.

He was delighted to see his points increase.

In particular, there was one time when he accidentally sold some ore, which suddenly increased by dozens of points. He laughed so hard that his eyes could not see.

Seeing that the two of them had no intention of speaking..

“They said they were coming down to the mortal world to subdue demons,” Wang Wen said to the monkey. “I don’t think you look like a demon. Instead, the leader looks more like a demon. So, I don’t want to fight.”

Upon hearing that…

The monkey chuckled and scratched his ears and cheeks in delight.

“You’re a good talker; come back with me to my cave for a drink!” He called out to Wang Wen and the other two.

The monkey jumped into the waterfall.

Wang Wen unhurriedly dragged the other two in.

After he went past the waterfall, his field of vision suddenly became blank.

The cave was well-ventilated, and the stone walls were not wet.

All monkeys, big and small, had consciousness and were currently happily fiddling with fruit flesh and wine on the stone table.

He even saw some monkeys using long tree branches to stir the stone pot, cooking some slightly familiar herbs with a small fire.

Zhu Xingguo clicked his tongue and turned to look at Wang Wen. “Those monkeys actually eat cooked food. I thought they only ate peaches.”

“Don’t underestimate them,” Wang Wen said. “According to the stories, most of the monkeys here have had their names removed from the book of life and death. They might be much older than you. They can cook food and make wine.

Just as he finished speaking…

The Monkey King was already holding a glass of wine and beckoned the three to eat and drink.

Look at how carefree he was.

Wang Wen shook his head in amusement.

When he walked forward and saw the table full of fresh and plump fruits, he picked one up and took a bite.

The Monkey King poured wine on his collar and grinned at Wang Wen, saying, “You guys came down from the sky, but you did not fight with them. The mighty Juling Shen I just defeated is famous for being a tattletale. You guys won’t have a good result when you get back. Why don’t you stay here and be free?

“That was Juling Shen?” Wang Wen was slightly stunned.

He exchanged glances with Ren Ruoruo.

Both were masters of scientific decipherment and had dabbled in various historical stories.

They tried to remember the legend.

Juling Shen was at the forefront of the battle.

Li Tianwang’s entourage trailed behind him.

The Monkey King won the first battle.

He was also officially conferred the title of the Great Sage.

Unfortunately, his appointment was also the beginning of Monkey King’s miserable life.

The Jade Emperor wanted to take him in for his own use, but the Queen Mother of the West did not want the demonic power to fall to anyone else. She knew that the Monkey King was trouble, but she suggested that the Great Sage, a title in name only, should manage the peach garden.

She wanted to wait for something to happen to the monkey again so that he could anger the Jade Emperor and force the two to fall out.

The truth was indeed what she had expected. Everything was out of control.

They wanted to avoid a tragedy.

The most crucial step was to stop the Monkey King from becoming the Great Sage! 𝙛r𝚎𝐞𝑤𝚎𝗯𝗻𝗼𝐯e𝚕.𝒄𝐨𝓂

Would it not be great for him to be Mount Huaguo’s Monkey King?

He would not fall out with anyone and cause a ruckus in heaven. No one would be alarmed.

Wang Wen looked around.

The One-horned Demon King who had given the Monkey King advice was the bad guy sent by the Queen Mother of the West.

That guy was there to trick the Great Sage.

If he wanted to stop them, he would have to blow up that damn thing’s head first!

The One-horned Demon King was easy to find.

The guy sat beside the main chair, talking and laughing to make Monkey King laugh. They saw him at a glance.

As expected…

The World Tower provided progress of only 0.002 points.

It was only slightly higher than an ordinary monkey.

He was a far cry from the monkeys.

Wang Wen gathered his spiritual power and grabbed the head of the One-horned Demon King, turning it into a blue paste.

The Monkey King was utterly stunned.

He looked at Wang Wen in confusion.

Wang Wen retracted his hand and said, “We came from the sky. Believe me; he’s a spy.”
