The Awaken the Void Magic didn’t just complete the Summoning.

It also granted them several additional Enhancements from the Void.

Enhancements like Rebirth, Void Contamination, and Void Constitution.

Furthermore, every one of these Summoned Creatures was a Special Species.

A mere King Level Demon.

It stood no chance against the assault of a Nation Destruction Level Demon.

In just a few seconds, the King of Root Feet was brutally slaughtered by the Humming Hunter.

Watching the body gradually fade away, Lu Cang felt a wave of emotion.

’Back then, on the city walls, I was just a scrub. I would’ve turned and run at the sight of a Tier Four King Level Demon. But now, I have the power to summon a legion of Nation Destruction Level creatures. With my current strength, I could probably annihilate a small country with ease.’

’Getting stronger really is all that matters.’

’It would be such a waste to die for some stupid reason. If I had died back then on the battlefield protecting Raine Town, how could I have become the person I am today?’

At this thought, Lu Cang’s conviction to survive at all costs grew even firmer.

Moving on, floors 60 to 74 were all filled with Tier Four King Level Demons.

Floor 73 had two King Level Demons.

Floor 74 had four King Level Demons appear at once.

Unfortunately for them... there was no difference between one and four to Lu Cang.

They were all destined to be cleaved in two by the Headless Warrior’s axe.

Floor 75.

The first appearance of a Tier Four Nation Destruction Level Demon.

’Floor 75, Nation Destruction Level.’

’Fighting a Nation Destruction Level Demon from a higher tier solo... This War God Tower Trial is really intense.’

’But the highest cleared floor is already 77?’

’Looks like there are a lot of experts out there.’

The Trial was indeed difficult, but judging by the clear rates, there was no shortage of powerful individuals.

To be precise, Level 4 experts.

The Level 1-3 challengers were just average.

They only made it to around floor 50, fighting Same Tier King Level Demons.

Only that one Level 4 expert had cleared up to floor 77.

In comparison, that was truly an incredible level of combat power.

Lu Cang steamrolled floor 70.

...

「Outside the War God Tower」

"Hey..."

"What’s... what’s going on?"

"The highest floor for the Level 3 War God Tower... is skyrocketing?"

Floor 56, Floor 57, Floor 58...

It was climbing at a rate of almost one floor every twenty seconds. It paused at floor 60 for about a minute, then jumped to 61.

After that, it continued to climb at the same rate of one floor every twenty seconds.

It was as if there was no resistance at all.

In less than three minutes...

...the highest floor had already broken past 77 to reach floor 78.

It had already broken the current record for this cycle of the War God Tower.

A Level 3?

"Could it be... Lu Cang?"

The name Lu Cang had become somewhat famous in the last few days.

He had defeated Atelindo, the number one Level 2 in the Battle Arena, and then appeared as number two on the Level 3 rankings.

On top of that, he was a Root Mage.

With all these factors combined, his fame had begun to spread, but it hadn’t been long, so the news hadn’t traveled too far yet.

After all, even in an age with the internet, a "viral" hot topic might be something that blew up weeks ago.

Not to mention this Otherworld... where the spread of information was quite slow.

"Lu Cang? Who’s that?"

"Whoa, you don’t even know him? He’s that new Root Mage! The one who beat Atelindo in the Battle Arena, the guy who pushed Atelindo to comprehend Extreme Intent! He’s also Izparut’s disciple, the number one Level 3 Mage, the number two Level 3 Athlete, and that early awakened one Kumironi is responsible for."

"How the hell am I supposed to know that many people?"

"Damn it, I’m talking about *one* person!"

"How the hell can that be one person?"

’Forget it. There’s no use talking to this moron.’

The two of them argued for a while, then looked up at the floor count...

Highest Cleared Floor: 91.

’Damn, in the time it took us to argue, he’s already reached floor 91?’
