Eastern Regions, climb to the top of the mountain.

Three figures stood on the top of the snow.

At the same time, he looked down at a long-stepped shrine halfway up the mountain.

The shrine is built along the mountain road, backed by the palace of the Eastern Regions, and there are tens of thousands of steps at the foot of the mountain.

At this time, there was a long queue in front of the shrine.

The number of people spread all the way to the foot of the mountain, and everyone's expression was a little reverent.

Today is the time of the monthly offering, and the long queues of people come to worship the gods.

As one of the four leaders of the Eastern Regions, it is also the most powerful in the entire Eastern Regions.

The four of them are usually admired by 10,000 people, and the daimyo is known to everyone in the entire Eastern Regions.

In the early two years, I don't know who released the rumors, claiming that as long as he worships the four corners of the Eastern Regions, he can make his wishes come true and his dreams come true.

At first, few people believed it.

But on one occasion, an ordinary passerby player from the Eastern Regions unexpectedly received an SSS perfect clearance evaluation in an S-level dungeon.

After the broadcast in the whole Eastern Region, he attracted everyone's attention and took the initiative to accept media interviews.

In the interview, he said that the day before he cleared the copy, he also went to the shrine at the foot of the Dengtian Mountain to worship the Four Pillars of the Eastern Regions once.

That night, the Four Masters of the Eastern Regions hinted at him in a dream that the perfect way to clear the dungeon.

This statement immediately caused an uproar among the player community.

Although there are quite a few people who doubt this statement.

But there are also some good people who really went to investigate the player's previous situation, and also visited relatives and friends to ask a lot of acquaintances and relatives around him.

found that this player was indeed unknown before this, and his strength was only at the bottom of the B-level.

After clearing the customs this time, he jumped directly to the strength of A+ level! It can be described as a salted fish turned over!

After this news was confirmed, the story of turning over overnight became even more widespread.

For ordinary people, everyone has fantasized about waking up one night and winning the jackpot of five million.

And the SSS evaluation of the S-level copy is even more exciting than buying a lottery ticket and winning five million!

I'm afraid that the rewards of just one potential book can soar to 10 million, as well as red moon coins and item rewards.

Not to mention the continuous benefits that the step elevation brings to the follow-up.

This kind of unearned news is often the most eye-catching.

After that, more and more players gradually began to believe this rumor, and they all spontaneously went to the shrine at the foot of the mountain to pay their respects.

Anyway, it doesn't take much effort to spend a little money, what if the dream comes true?

During this period, there were also occasional players who visited the shrine and really hit the luck in the follow-up dungeon breakthroughs, and the best props were exposed.

Every time such an example occurs, some hidden forces will push the news to the public, make them give interviews, and trumpet the divine abilities of the four gods of the Eastern Regions.

Therefore, even some players who have visited the shrine but still have achieved nothing, and have not been transferred.

I also began to wonder if I was not pious enough when I visited the shrine, instead of questioning whether it was useful to visit the shrine.

After all, even in the period when the copy does not come, some Buddhist temples will have a lot of incense guests.

What's more, when the copy descends, the Four Pillars of the Eastern Regions really exist.

Instead of believing in those false gods and Buddhas.

It's far better to worship your own top players directly.

After coming and going, this custom spread throughout the Eastern Regions, and not only players, but also many ordinary indigenous residents slowly accepted it.

Every month, there are many people who flock to the shrine.

The visit lasts a whole week before it ends.

The same is true for this month.

Every time they visit the shrine, the four members of the Eastern Regions will stand on the top of the mountain, looking down at these humble people like dust.

Occasionally, when I'm in a good mood, I'll really help somewhat.

Today, however, the situation is a little different.

In the past, there were only three of the foursomes present.

And the expressions of the three of them were a little gloomy, and they couldn't even be happy on such a day as the god sacrifice.

"Mu Luo's breath is broken." After a while, Leng Zhou, who was wearing a green shirt and a hat, said with a solemn face: "Although I don't know what happened in the dungeon, she should have ......."

"Even Mu Luo has been planted in, that guy is really damned......" A young man who looked like Zhengtai also clenched his fists slightly, but his innocent face had a bit of hideousness and killing meaning that did not match immaturity: "If he dares to stand in front of me, I will definitely cut him with a thousand knives!" ”

"Shepherd boy, calm down." Leng Zhou frowned slightly and reminded.

In fact.

The relationship between the four people in the Eastern Regions is not so good on weekdays, and it is more just superficially harmonious.

Behind the scenes, there will also be all the tricks, and I will cheat.

It's just that with Mu Luo's death, the other three people all feel threatened.

You dare to kill Mu Luo today, do you dare to come to us with a knife tomorrow?

Therefore, the atmosphere of the three of them at this moment is somewhat sad.

"Okay, instead of feeling sorry for Mu Luo, let's think about how to limit God A, otherwise it will be us who will suffer." Dieyi put her hands around her chest, and her plump fruit shook and trembled slightly.

"Mu Luo should have received an oracle from Lord Quasi-God in the dungeon, and he couldn't stop this guy with the oracle, it's really not an ordinary tricky, the ghost knows how he fought the dungeon." Leng Zhou's face was slightly ugly: "What I'm most worried about now is that he will go directly to the gods after he comes out." None of you will forget the orders of the quasi-gods, right? ”

At the mention of the order given by the quasi-god-sama, the eyes of the other two also trembled slightly, revealing a little fear.

The command can be summed up in one sentence.

In the entire territory of Huaxiu, the thirteenth quasi-god must not be allowed to appear.

If there are signs of it, just kill them all!

Although the quasi-god never directly explained this command.

But a few people can guess one or two of them as long as they are not stupid.

There must be some kind of resource that is only enough for the 12 quasi-gods to divide equally.

The appearance of a thirteenth god will cause the income of the other quasi-gods to decrease.

And most of this income is related to the worship of the group of worshippers below the foot of the mountain.

Although these worshippers nominally worship the Four Pillars of the Eastern Regions.

But Leng Zhou and the others knew very well that the worship itself was deliberately made by the quasi-god lord to guide public opinion.

Initially, they did use the potential of the dream disturbance class to give a player a taste of the sweetness.

Then take the opportunity to make a big announcement.

Once the momentum is up, the next thing to do is much simpler – don't worry about anything.

Once there are more people who visit the shrine, there will always be a few lucky players among them, and they will get rich overnight tomorrow if they visit the shrine today.

But that's just because the base has gotten bigger.

What they have to do is to manipulate public opinion and publicize the events of players who should have been lucky.

A virtuous cycle is then formed, convincing more and more players that the offering can bring miracles.

The incense money will all fall into the hands of the four people in the Eastern Regions.

But a few people always had a faint feeling that something more important had been taken away by the quasi-god lord, but they couldn't detect it because of the gap in their realm.

However, these things, a few people will not ask more and dare not ask more.

Their success today depends on the cultivation of the quasi-gods.

It can be said that it is under one person and above ten thousand.

It's already very satisfying to have today, where can I dare to ask for more.

"As for whether God A succeeds in ascending to God, there is no need to be so pessimistic, some details can still be judged." Dieyi said coldly: "According to the current progress, God A should have come out of the dungeon, but we haven't been notified of any dungeon. ”

"Also, this shows that his performance in this copy is not so impressive, and he didn't even meet the SSS evaluation." The shepherd boy answered: "In addition to the ten holy torches necessary to ascend to the gods, you also need a saint-level evaluation of the difficulty of S+ dungeon. And if you want to reach the holy level, you must at least 100% of the SSS evaluation to be eligible. How many of us relied on the oracle of the quasi-god-sama, and we barely reached the SSS passing line, and wanted to overflow more than double? The quasi-god can't guarantee that every dungeon will reach this level, right? ”

"If that's the case, then it's easy to do." Leng Zhou's tone relaxed a little.

He was really afraid that Xu Mu would go directly to the gods after he came out of this copy, and it would become very tricky at that time.

"For now, it's still the old rule, use public opinion to build momentum." As the oldest of the three, Dieyi also thought of the safest way, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she attracted the attention of the other two.

She continued to speak in a deep voice.

"I've just heard some rumors that some players had a collective withdrawal frenzy in the book "Assassin's Odyssey" not long ago."

"I asked someone to find a player who quit the dungeon halfway, and after inquiring about it, I learned that it was Mu Luo who killed God A in the dungeon, and adopted the method of chasing and killing all the people."

"Guess what God A said?" Her narrow eyes were gently twisted, and she seemed to smile rather than smile.

"What?"

"He said, 'Those who withdraw the copy now can live, and everyone else will die.'"

As soon as Dieyi's words fell, two sneers suddenly came from beside him.

"How dare he?" The corners of Leng Zhou's mouth were full of sneers, and he was completely relieved.

I didn't expect that the person he was worried about threatening to him just now was this kind of nonsense?

It's unnecessary!

The shepherd boy even showed a disdainful look: "Even if we are the four leaders of the Eastern Regions, we don't dare to say this kind of nonsense, killing hundreds or even thousands of players in one go?" Heh, he wants to be the enemy of our entire Eastern Regions? ”

"It's just bluffing, who will really believe it." Leng Zhou shook his head.

"It doesn't matter if he bluffs or not, the important thing is that we can make a fuss with this." Dieyi flicked one hand in the air, and several butterfly origami appeared in his palm.

"Potential: Species Simulation Butterfly!" She let out a low sigh and gently blew into her palm, and those butterfly origami turned into glorious creatures!

Under her gaze, she danced, and flew away in the wind.

These butterflies are her microphones, which can directly communicate with the eyeliner buried in the Eastern Regions City, allowing them to build public opinion everywhere.

These eyeliners are all powerful people in the Eastern Regions, and they almost hold a handle to create a fake news.

What Dieyi has to do is also very simple.

Since you A God likes to bluff people so much, then I'll just come to a big one, and I'm sure that you are slaughtering hundreds of players in our Eastern Regions!

Make you completely famous in the whole Huaxiu!

When the time comes, you will be betrayed by the public and will not talk about it, and you will become a street rat.

At this point, the chain of suspicion is born.

After all, who would dare to be in the same dungeon as someone who would crush hundreds of players at every turn?

Or, people will retreat as soon as they see you entering the dungeon, so that you can't even get together the number of dungeons, and you can't even open the dungeon directly, so you can only play those single-player dungeons with few rewards!

Or, at the beginning of each dungeon, all players will be targeted by the authorities, and they will do everything they can to kill you in exchange for self-preservation.

After doing all this, Dieyi pursed her lips and smiled again: "I said that he killed, then I hope he really killed, otherwise it will be uncomfortable to button this hat~"

[Detecting that you have obtained the qualification to ascend the gods, will you teleport to the area - the gate of the Holy Fire Temple: Ascending God Steps?] 】

At the same time, within the realm of the dimension.

Listen to the teleportation prompts in your head.

Xu Mu did not hesitate and directly chose to teleport!

With a gorgeous white light flashing in front of him.

When he reappeared, he was already in a familiar area.

The Great Hall of the Holy Fire.

It was pitch black when I first came here, but as more and more flames were lit, the whole hall was illuminated.

And just when Xu Mu's front foot just landed.

Several cauldras in the backpack flew out one after another, igniting the remaining Peaks of Silence.

This fully automatic technique, Xu Mu still enjoys it.

Immediately afterward, he saw the blue flames on the ten great tripods as if they had been pulled out of their souls.

Ten flames surged into the quaint bronze gate in front of them.

Under the continuous infusion of the flame.

The dim bronze on the door in front of him was like a broken calcified layer, constantly fluttering and falling.

Rays of golden light emerged from the door.

"Squeak~~~~~"

After a heavy knock on the door.

An unusually dazzling light refracted from the crack in the middle door!

Even Xu Mu had to squint his eyes and turn his head slightly to avoid looking at this intense light.

After about half a minute, the strong light slowly dissipated, Xu Mu looked forward, and a shocking light suddenly erupted in his pupils!

The majestic ladder outlined in gold wire was presented to him!

You can't look at its width, and it seems that there is no end, all the way to the dome! At the top of the dome, a white-gold holy light shone down, as if there were visions of white feathers.

The gorgeous golden light flows up the steps, and each step is like a golden pour, exuding a sacred and noble atmosphere!

Xu Mu raised his legs and walked into the door.

As soon as I entered, an ethereal voice sounded in my head, somewhat similar to the prompt sound of the dungeon system.

But it sounds like it has a sense of luxury, at least it's not as formulaic and official as the copy prompt, and Xu Mu doesn't know if it's a psychological effect.

[Player, being here means that you have touched the secrets of the depths of the World Tree!] 】

[The staircase you see in front of you, called the Ascending God Long Steps, has a total of 99 floors, and it is the only way for you to reach the god-level player! 】

[After stepping into this step, the regular number of steps you earned in the dungeon will be cancelled!] Your current S- power level will also be cancelled! The strength display in your quest panel information will be changed to: Quasi-God Realm: Tier 001]

[All the points you earn in the dungeon will be converted into the breath of the gods!] When you reach level 100, your potential will automatically become even more powerful! Your points won't increase the level of the Spirits, you'll need to use enough Breath to do so! 】

[On the way to the Divine Ladder, if you want to go up, you need to collect enough faith!] 】

[Faith collection can come from NPCs in the dungeon, or from players like you in reality, the stronger the player's recognition, the higher the faith value obtained.] It's something that is especially important on your way forward! Please collect as many beliefs as you can. Faith will not be extinguished, and the flame will last forever! 】

[Please note that each time you climb the Stairs of God.] The amount of faith consumed will increase. When you are at the Initial God's Tier, you need to consume 100,000 Faith Points to climb the God's Order: Level 2. 】

[Have you noticed that in the reward distribution just now, you have gained a potential called [Divinity]?] When each player ascends to the gods, they will gain a special god potential, and your [divinity] is the only potential! When activated, it instantly boosts all of your strengths, including Potentials/Souls! 】

[The higher your god tier, the more powerful [Divinity] can burst out!] And every 5 steps, your [Divinity] will start an evolution, absorbing all of your current beliefs, and you can choose the direction of evolution! 】

[This is the end of your guidance, whether you can complete this long road to godhood, ascend to become a true god, and get a glimpse of the secret behind the red moon is all up to you, and the hope of the future is in your own hands! 】

……

This prompt tells a long list of contents.

Xu Mu digested it carefully, and simply made a summary in his heart.

To put it simply, if you play a dungeon in the future, you won't be able to get the regular World Tree Steps, and the strength level will not be like other players, what B+, A, S- level.

Think about it, after all, he is a quasi-god-level player, and he can't show his gold without any discrimination!

Although the regular steps have been abolished, they have been replaced by the steps of the gods.

The higher the number of floors this thing climbs, the stronger the blessing of [divinity], and it can also choose the direction of evolution every five layers.

Xu Mu estimated that the choice of the follow-up evolution direction of [divinity] would be his own big killer weapon against those quasi-god players.

The higher you climb, the more you evolve, and the more obvious the gap becomes.

And if you want to raise the level of the god level, you need faith.

As far as can be known, faith can be obtained from NPCs or players.

"In other words, although the regular steps when the dungeon is cleared seem to have been canceled, it seems that it is okay to be a rotten god in the future, and it will not be so much in the future. But in order to gain faith from the player, one must act like a god. Xu Mu thought in his heart.

After all, if you are a god who makes a big mess every day in the future, and picks some B-level copies and C-level copies, it is not impossible to come here easily.

But that's what you have to think about.

Those players who believe in you can easily pass the C-level book, and you still play the C-level book as a god......

emmm, it's hard to be convincing.

Anyway, if such a rotten god allowed himself to worship him, Xu Mu would definitely be ten thousand unhappy.

"It seems that I still can't rest." Xu Mu pursed his lips helplessly.

I thought that rushing to the Ascending God Realm would be over.

After getting the strength of self-preservation, I go to the dungeon every day to tease and tease NPCs, and in reality, I buy a yacht and go out to sea to fish, and my small life is leisurely.

As a result, it seems that the ascension to the gods is the beginning......

Moreover, Xu Mu is finally clear now.

Why did he obviously feel a strong hostility that was different from the other three domains after he came to the Eastern Regions?

Whether it is the Southern Domain, the Northern Domain, or the Western Domain, the pressure exerted by these three domains on themselves is basically limited to the dungeon, which is a relatively normal competitive relationship, after all, everyone wants to take a good reward, and if you get it, he will be gone, and it is normal to compete.

But these guys in the Eastern Regions want to kill themselves everywhere!

Now it's obvious.

In the Eastern Regions, there are quasi-gods like yourself! Maybe more than one!

They were worried that they would rush to the Eastern Regions, and after they became famous, they would carve up their faith in one acre and three points of land!

After all, the player base is so large, although Huaxiu has a population of billions across the country that seems to be a lot.

But this first step requires 100,000 faiths, and I don't know how many faiths will be spent in the future.

And, out of billions, the stronger the player, the higher the faith.

It's no wonder that these dogs in the Eastern Regions chose to close the domain and forbid it to be exposed.

It turned out that he couldn't look down on the beliefs of the players in the other three domains, and he was bent on cultivating the strength of the local players in the Eastern Regions, holding them within a controllable range, and making them stronger and stronger.

The stronger the contribution, the higher the faith.

After pondering it thoroughly, even Xu Mu had to sigh.

Good guys, you guys are here to raise Gu.

One is to raise the entire area, including hundreds of millions of people in the surrounding areas.

The corpse chasers in Xiangxi sighed to themselves, the Miao princess can be caught by you as a Gu king when she comes, it is the type that is directly locked in a small black house, crying all day long, and has to be constantly injected when things are finished.

"But then again, if faith is particularly important, then the copy broadcast that was cleared just now can be activated after it goes out, and it may be able to circle many believers and increase their faith." After thinking to himself, Xu Mu shook his head again, temporarily discarding the superfluous thoughts in his mind.

Immediately, there was a fierce color in his eyes!

Although as long as I take this step, I am afraid that there will be no more peaceful days in the future.

The cake is so big, if you want to share a piece, you have to break the knife in the hands of other people!

Don't let me eat?

Don't eat it, everyone! /raise

Putting away his thoughts, Xu Mu stepped forward and stepped squarely on the first step of the flowing gold.

"———— buzz!! ————”

Almost at the moment when the soles of the feet touched, an unprecedented majestic force poured out from the steps!

Those that cling to the steps of the gods are a flowing golden sheen.

At this moment, it turned into thousands of golden snakes, like a pilgrimage, converging into Xu Mu's body from all directions!

His hair swayed and danced in the wind that was pounding with a touch of terrifying energy! The corners of the clothes are also fluttering in the wind!

Even in the pitch-black pupils, strands of thin gold threads gradually plated them into a brilliant gold color!

This state lasted for almost a few minutes, and Xu Mu felt a sense of strength that he had never experienced before!

After activating [Divinity], he lowered his head and reached out to grasp his fist.

"Smack!!"

A crisp thunderous explosion sounded.

Xu Mu's eyebrows also raised.

Pinch out the air with your bare hands?

The ascension after ascending to the gods is inevitably too terrifying!

It's a pity that there is no force measuring tool in front of you.

Xu Mu is confident that now when he faces the prop of the [Sage Sandbag] again, he can directly blow it up with one punch when he is in full swing!

After breathing a sigh ......of relief, Xu Mu urged his thoughts and stopped the opening state of [divinity].

The mental power consumption of this thing is almost exaggerated!

He has been strengthened to the spirit value of the Holy Flame level, and he has been directly squeezed dry in just a few seconds!

However, the power that erupted was also very satisfying.

"So what's next......"

Xu Mu stepped down from the first floor of the Divine Steps, stepped out of the golden wormhole in front of him, and returned to the dimensional realm.

A fierce look in his eyes gradually rose!

"It's time to settle accounts with those guys in the Eastern Regions!"

"Those who believe in me live, and those who betray me die!"

Yesterday's 2K words counted as a change, and today's 6K words are still counted as a change!

Monthly progress: 11/50

Although the progress bar is not going up very quickly, don't panic! I'm catching up, I'm!
