Chapter 146: Ascension to God (II)
The far east of this planet is a grassland.
The lights of the city do not shine here, but the bright stars above have already lit up the entire night sky.
Under this dazzling starlight, the scene on the field is almost clear at a glance. Let alone the so-called divine tower, there is not even a shadow of a building.
At this time, others who see this scene may wonder if they have found the wrong place, but Dong Jin, whose eyes have evolved again and again, does not have such troubles-because the scene he sees is completely different from that of ordinary people.
The "Eye of Truth" shows him the reality of the world.
The "Eye of Night" prevents the night from blocking his vision.
The "Eye of Drama" ensures that he will never be deceived by illusions.
Every time he ascended in the past, all the secrets of the world were opened to him.
Through those unique eyes of different colors, Dong Jin clearly saw the phantom of the divine tower being outlined and emerging in front of him inch by inch. However, because he came too early and too fast, the divine tower that was supposed to come into the world from virtual to real after 24 hours could only temporarily exist in the void in the form of an illusion.
If he was not mistaken... Dong Jin quietly observed the divine tower in front of him. The silver and black color scheme of the divine tower was completely the aesthetic of a certain god, and it was exactly the same as the appearance of a part of the divine tower that he had observed out of curiosity using the reflection of a mirror.
Considering that the Ascension Tower was basically built by Lei Ming, and thinking of Lei Ming's meaningful words before entering the dungeon, "I will wait for your victory at the end", does the so-called God Tower in the final dungeon refer to the Ascension Tower?
Considering the name of the final dungeon, the answer is obvious.
When Dong Jin was looking at the God Tower that was close at hand, all the spectators in the high-dimensional universe in the God Tower, and even all the gods and demons in the highest universe, were also looking at him.
Just as Dong Jin guessed, this God Tower was indeed the Ascension Tower that the trial participants had been entering after the dungeon. And now the spectators and gods and demons are waiting in the newly opened 100th floor "God's Land", waiting for his arrival.
"Too fast! Really too fast! There's no point coming so fast, the divine tower hasn't even arrived yet!"
"Not necessarily useless. Looking at where Brother Jun's line of sight is, he seems to be able to see this tower? I don't know if he can come in earlier. If he can, then he really deserves to be a god. Who in this whole special copy can compare to my Brother Jun?"
"Even if he comes in 24 hours later, it will only be him who will be a god! Don't you see how Brother Jun got here!"
At this moment, the audience on the 100th floor looked at the live broadcast screen in front of them, discussing this unprecedented strange situation one by one. And soon someone analyzed the reason:
"Dong Jin's universe locked in the victory in advance. When others were afraid to survive to the end, the people in his universe, holding the golden ticket of immunity from death, naturally seized the opportunity to step on the accelerator. At this time, their entire universe was crazy, and Dong Jin was the craziest one among them!"
"So when Dong Jin stood on the roof and stirred up a storm, everyone in his universe was willing to dance with him. Not to mention just sharing their skills with Dong Jin, some people were even willing to die for him - anyway, they can all be resurrected in the end."
"Dong Jin himself is the butterfly that leads the storm, and there is an entire universe willing to pave the way for him. Such an unconventional human being with such an unconventional charm will certainly bring an unconventional clearance speed."
"Obviously, the final instance is mainly used for the trialists to eliminate each other and compete for the ranking, otherwise the task interface would not be so simple. But no one expected that there would be a person like Brother Jin."
During the heated discussion of the audience, the gods and demons in the seats of the gods, which were clearly separated from them, were also paying attention to Dongjin.
"It's not just the trialists..." Dark, the god of darkness who failed twice in Dongjin, couldn't help but muttered in a low voice.
Then his line of sight passed by Bist and Kai, and finally stopped at Lei Ming in the front. Knowing the sharpness of the gods and demons, Dak chose to finish the second half of the sentence in his heart: "——There are many gods and demons who are crazy for him."
As the god of darkness, others can't feel it, but can't he feel the arrogant power of the night on Dong Jin? Lei Ming was so fascinated that he even gave away the power of the night, so how could he not give Dong Jin the power of drama?
Just wait and see, it won't take 24 hours at all. Dong Jin is sure to enter this tower of ascension!
Dong Jin didn't know that Dak had so much confidence in him, but he did enter the tower in advance.
When he raised his left hand with the butterfly bone ring and touched the phantom of the tower of ascension, the power of the drama immediately opened the door of the illusory tower of gods for him, and also allowed him to penetrate reality and illusion, and step into the tower from reality to illusion.
Maybe others couldn't see the source of Dong Jin's authority just now, but after this move, what fool can't see it? So all kinds of eyes, openly and secretly, fell on Lei Ming.
As for the god of night and drama who was being watched, he smiled without being affected at all.
When he built this tower, he didn't think that it would be useful here one day.
This is the best, at least he is adding bricks and tiles to Dong Jin.
Now that the time, place and people are all in Dong Jin, his little butterfly will finally fly to his throne.
But when will this butterfly fall into his arms?
Thinking of this, Lei Ming lowered his eyes to hide the gloom in his golden eyes.
Even though he was not sure about this gamble, he showed no sign of it, and even played with the real godhead that was handed back to him after Dong Jin entered the tower - after all, everyone knew that Dong Jin entering the tower was equivalent to the final MVP.
As Dong Jin's two-way god-chosen one, he naturally won the game between the gods.
In addition to the real godhead, the energy that Lei Ming could obtain far exceeded the debt between him and the will of the universe. It is estimated that after the end of this god-chosen ceremony, the previous demon-entry agreement will be completely turned into dust.
But Lei Ming didn't care about these things at all. After fiddling with the real godhead twice, he closed his right hand slightly, and when he raised his hand again, the godhead disappeared in his palm and was sent to where he wanted to go.
At the same time, Dong Jin's journey to the Godhood was very smooth.
Because any trialist who ranked in the top ten thousand in the overall ranking would be familiar with the God Tower. Although the elevator in the tower was temporarily closed and could only go up one step at a time, for any trialist participating in the final copy, climbing the stairs was really a simple matter.
At first, Dong Jin thought that there would be some monster raids in the God Tower.
But after walking for a while, he found that there was really no danger here, it was just an ordinary leisure tower.
If there is any problem, it is that the location of the stairs on each floor of the tower will constantly change, requiring the trialer to cross the tower to find its traces; and because the space inside the God Ascension Tower is much wider than it looks, the length of the stairs is too shocking.
The changes in the stairs could not stop Dong Jin, and soon he came to the training room on the 10th floor.
In fact, before this, Dong Jin still didn't understand the meaning of this copy of letting people climb the tower without setting any difficulty.
However, when he walked through the compartments of the training room and walked towards the stairs of this floor, the memory of the past subconsciously appeared in his mind - he had used these training rooms, together with Lei Ming.
Who said that the training facilities in a personal room are not as good as those in a special place? Many times, in order to train attack and evasion skills, in addition to real-life combat, various machines are also needed to assist? So he can even be called a frequent visitor to this place.
Sometimes when Lei Ming has something to do, he often hangs out here.
Anyway, every single room in the training room has an elevator that goes directly to the trial floor. As long as you are careful, you won't meet other trial participants head-on.
Behind the training room is the amusement park on the 20th floor.
Dong Jin has also been here, and Lei Ming dragged him here.
It was after the third copy was over that the Tower of Ascension to the Gods just appeared. He had been very irritated because he had talked about the problem of the gods and demons having high body temperatures in an interview program. That night, Lei Ming took him to the amusement park.
What did Lei Ming say at that time?
"This is my masterpiece. Enjoy it, Dong Jin - and improve your damn aesthetic taste by the way."
And the enjoyment this guy mentioned was to let him experience the explosion of stars up close. He even came to him after the explosion and asked him if this was more exciting than the fireworks show? Which is higher, the temperature of the star explosion or his body temperature? Dong
Jin was almost laughing when he heard this. He wanted to ask, the former can be compared to some extent, but how can the latter be compared?
If Lei Ming really had that temperature, he would have been burned to death long ago!
If it weren't for Lei Ming's Dark Night Godhead to cover up his whereabouts, Dong Jin really wanted to turn around and leave.
Then it was the 30th floor arena.
To be honest, he didn't come here very often, because most of the time he chose to watch the live broadcast of the arena in his room.
Only when some top-ranked trialists came to fight, he would watch the live version to analyze the opponent's strength.
The first four trials were fine, but when the competition for rankings in the universes became more and more intense, he would shake Lei Ming first when he went to the arena, asking him to add a layer of Dark Night Godhead's concealment or put on a layer of Drama Godhead's disguise.
The 40th floor trading area, the 50th floor food city, the 60th floor event venue, the 70th floor shopping center...
the props of the trialists are not circulated. So every time he went to the trading area, he didn't see the props for sale, but the various time-limited bonuses attached to the props. This is what the trialists really trade.
Even though the effects of few props can be extended to the dungeon, it is not completely non-existent.
It's just that every time he went to pick props, it was okay during the day, but if it was night, Lei Ming would definitely rely on the Night Godhead to nag in his ear. Basically, everything became worthless on the other side, and in the end, he could only come empty-handed and go back empty-handed.
Speaking of the food city, this is a rare time for Lei Ming to do something.
The food sold in the God Ascension Tower is just virtual food, and the trial participants can only have a taste at most. But every time Dong Jin bought something, he would soon eat the same thing that Lei Ming brought on the Disaster Star, and it was the real thing.
Sometimes the food was so rich that Dong Jin thought he was eating a meal made from beheaded people.
Lei Ming explained this by saying, "- This is a special treatment for accomplices."
Dong Jin didn't want to count how many times the program group at the event venue had done this.
As for the shopping center...
Under Lei Ming's mocking gaze, he had listed several best ways to use popularity points. But in order to buy the godhood, he still hasn't gotten it yet.
Therefore, Lei Ming's gaze became more and more mocking.
Although he was not used to seeing him return Kaishenge, but now thinking back, this guy had never said anything too much.
The 78th to 99th floors
of the Tower of Ascension to the Gods are the realm of gods and demons. Dong Jin was very familiar with the God and Demon Arena on the 80th floor of the Tower of Ascension to the Gods.
Because Lei Ming accepted all challenge posts, he had no way to hide and had to suffer there for two days. Rather than saying that he was an invited commentator, it would be better to say that he was the one being commented on by the higher-dimensional universe.
The only special place in the entire Tower of Ascension to the Gods that Dong Jin had never set foot on was the commentator's desk on the 90th floor.
But thanks to the fact that he was hotly discussed by the higher-dimensional audience for many days, he received many clips of the commentator's desk sent to him by the audience.
If Dong Jin were to make his own judgment, at least he was doing his job well on the God and Demon commentary platform. If the audience didn't listen, that was their business. But Lei Ming was not like that at all - he was just fooling around with his commentary, or even just putting on a bad show. If
this god was a little weaker, the will of the Supreme Universe would have kicked him out long ago.
After reaching the 90th floor, Dong Jin had already understood the meaning of the final dungeon for people to climb.
It really wasn't difficult at all. It existed only to allow a group of trialists to recall their experience of being chosen by God, to adjust their mindsets in the long silence, and to welcome their respective end points.
This was a spiritual baptism, and also the goodwill of the Supreme Universe towards the trialists.
Dong Jin understood everything. Precisely because he saw it too clearly, a certain figure in his memory appeared more and more distinct.
- Lei Ming, Lei Ming, and Lei Ming again.
Recalling this point, Dong Jin couldn't help but close his eyes. He had obviously walked through 99 floors, but when he counted those memories carefully, apart from the pursuit of victory, his remaining memories were all filled with the shadow of Lei Ming.
And not only after the God's Choice was opened. Even before the God's Choice was opened and the gods came, his 20 years of memory in prison could not match the life and death struggles of a thousand midnights.
After all, he was gambling his life in those thousand nights, how could he not have a deep memory?
"It's really crazy." Dong Jin whispered inaudibly before stepping into the 99th floor.
He finally realized that Lei Ming was not the only one who was really crazy at this moment.
After making fun of himself, Dong Jin looked at the 99th floor.
Unlike all the other floors with closed doors, the doors of the two rooms on the 99th floor were actually open.
Dong Jin knew very well that there were only two gods and demons living on this floor. On the left was Lei Ming, the god of night and drama, and on the right was Kai, the god of carnival.
He had no intention of going in. The stairs to the 99th floor were at the end of the corridor, and there was no need for him to set foot in the territory of those two.
However, the wide-open doors on both sides seemed to welcome him in. He didn't even need to look deliberately. With just a subconscious glance, the scenes on both sides were all reflected in his eyes.
It was this glance that made Dong Jin stop in his tracks.
Because he caught a glimpse of the fragments of the godhead of day and the complete true godhead.
Dong Jin first stepped into Kai's room, or rather, Kai's temple.
It was not yet daybreak. The hazy sky made this magnificent temple a little dim, but it could not hide the decadent atmosphere emanating from every corner of it.
Dong Jin did not look at the sheets of music manuscripts scattered on the table and the floor. He just walked to the low table where the music scores and various liquors were placed, and picked up a silver hair chain placed on the music score.
The material of the hair chain was exactly the same as the silver chain he had used to make jewelry before, and the last fragment of the Daylight Godhead fell at the end of the hair chain. The moment he picked up the hair chain, Dong Jin inevitably scanned the music scores on the table.
The title of the top one was "Glory".
- That was the background music of his final cut.
When Dong Jin first watched the big edit, he found that the level of his background music was not at the same level as other MVPs, and it really matched his edit too well.
At that time, Dong Jin thought it was a special treatment for the first place in the FMVP ranking. Now it seems that this is Kai's masterpiece.
There is nothing wrong with Kai.
Dong Jin, who had never worn the hairpin, turned around and left the temple, walking towards Lei Ming's temple opposite.
It's just that he is stubborn by nature and doesn't believe in the so-called natural fit. He only believes in the repeated demands between life and death.
Compared with Kai's luxury, Lei Ming's temple is too cold.
The silver-gray temple is empty. Apart from the throne, there is only a large skylight and the sky outside the window that is about to brighten. And the real godhead was quietly placed on the dark throne.
Lei Ming was also watching this scene at this moment.
The godhead in his hand disappeared just now, and he was teleported here.
In countless midnights, he was alone in such a palace looking at the moon; but now, the moon is already in his eyes, and the sun is even in his heart.
His sun and moon have always been the same person.
Dong Jin, who picked up two godheads in succession, only felt that the divine power was endless.
The moment he picked up the godhead, whether it was the collected daylight godhead or the real godhead that was highly compatible with him, they all turned into his power, making him directly become the real god of daylight and truth.
However, due to the copy limit problem, this power has not been fully activated.
Although his accessories were still there, they only had the function of being viewed like gems.
"Please choose the song chosen by God for the God-chosen ceremony."
When Dong Jin reached the end of the 99th floor, a virtual screen suddenly appeared in front of him. Along with it came the mechanical sound of the will of the highest universe.
The screen listed well-known songs from almost all universes.
If Dong Jin looked carefully, he would even find that many of the scores overlapped with those on Kaidi. But Dong Jin had no intention of listening to them one by one. He chose to input the score himself without hesitation.
The song he entered was called "A Midsummer Night's Dream".
His birthday was July 7, which happened to be midsummer according to the lunar calendar, and his evolutionary journey began in the summer three years ago, in those thousand dreams. Now it is midsummer inside and outside the dungeon, and his evolutionary journey has come to an end here.
Even if it is just the title of the song, this song is appropriate. ①
After choosing the music, the door to the 100th floor of the Tower of Gods suddenly opened to Dong Jin.
With the rising sun, he was greeted by thunderous applause.
Probably because the dungeon has not yet ended, Dong Jin could not hear what those people said specifically. He first scanned the seats of gods and demons, and after his eyes paused for a moment on Lei Ming who was smiling at him, his gaze swept across the enthusiastic audience seats opposite.
Dong Jin scanned the entire place where the gods descended, but did not find the throne mentioned in the only task. Seeing this, he did not stop for long and went straight to the 100th floor stairs - this staircase leads to the top of the God Ascension Tower, where the only throne is standing at this time.
The moment Dong Jin ascended the throne, the sky was bright. The God Ascension Tower, which was supposed to appear in the world for some time, descended into reality ahead of schedule.
Since the only task has been completed, the tasks of all trialists in the special copy are directly updated. Their only tasks show "failed", and there is an additional label "Completion countdown: 24 hours" behind the main task.
Thinking of Dong Jin's previous series of operations on the roof, the smarter trialists instantly guessed who caused this situation.
Wisdom scanned the world map, smiled bitterly, and gave up the idea of continuing to eliminate other universe trialists. He walked towards the airport flying to the Far East without looking back.
In the same city, Vig put away his knife, Sibel stopped charming, and the two of them rushed to the east.
The choices of other MVPs were no different.
Even Oz, who was very proud, tossed a coin to confirm that this was Dong Jin's trick, and then he just cursed Dong Jin for being a nobody while rushing to the final destination.
During these 24 hours, the bottom of the Tower of Ascension was flooded with people. Dong Jin,
who caught a glimpse of this scene at the top of the tower, remembered the photo he had seen before - this was probably the scene that the prophet took at the time.
When the 24-hour countdown ended, the final instance also entered the settlement time.
[Instance name: Ascension to the God]

And the next second after the settlement, the ceremony of the selection of the gods of this year has begun.
