One particularly good-looking half-step True God expert with a red crystal pearl on her forehead spoke out, “Your Eminence Amano, we have already accomplished our task, the people remaining here are less than half. Please open the way to the 4th Level.”
By now, everyone was already suspicious. Due to the wave of slaughter earlier, all the low-level experts had been killed, and over half of the experts present had already died. They had cleared the objectives of entering the 4th Level.
Amano stared at the Dino-Beast expert that had expressed his doubts and spoke solemnly, “The authority of a True God can never be blasphemed! Kill him! As long as you kill him, the Great Amano will open the way to the 4th Level.”
The Dino-Beast expert had a sunken expression, as he roared out while flapping his wings in order to escape, “He’s a liar!! We have to join hands and kill him to open the way to the 4th Level!”
When they heard Amano’s words, many of the experts who had enmity with the Dino-Beast expert quickly chased after him.
Some of those Type 9 powerhouses that had racked up the most kills hesitated a moment before they also joined forces against the Dino-Beast experts.
Although they could not be sure that Amano was speaking the truth, killing one half-step True God expert meant one less enemy in the Tower of Babel, to them, it was definitely a worthy trade-off.
Under the joint forces of those Type 9 experts, the half-step Type 9 Dino-Beast was mercilessly blasted apart, his corpse desecrated, without even the slightest hint of life.
“Very good, you have accomplished what the Great Amano has decreed, now Amano will open up the spatial gateway to the 4th level for you.”
Amano saw the half-step True God slaughtered under the joint efforts of those Type 9 experts, and with a strange glint in his eyes, he stretched out with his arms, and a massive surge of spatial laws churned, causing a pitch-black hole to open up.
Amano spoke, “Please enter in an orderly fashion, it will only remain open for 30 seconds. After that, it will close, and it would need another round of blood sacrifice to open.”
Before his words had even finished, many figures shot toward the spatial gate.
Being the 1st to enter the 4th Level was too enticing for anyone, even if they had their suspicions at first, the moment they saw the gate opened, their reason had flown out the window.
“Get lost!!”
“Those who get in my way shall die!”
“…”
The numerous silhouettes sent out their strongest attacks madly at the entrance.
Due to the overwhelming attacks and laws, many experts were heavily injured.
At this time, no one had the intention to line up according to whoever killed more, as everyone fought to fly into the black space.
The first one to enter let out a maniacal laughter, “HAHAHA!!! I, Nisimu, am the first to reach the 4th Level!! I will be the one to reach the True God realm!!”
As he barged through, the rest also continued without care for anything else in the world.
Seeing the powerhouses charge through the black tunnel, the eyes of the Golden Giant had a hint of amusement and ridicule.
Yue Zhong stared at the spatial tunnel, his eyes fixed. However, he could not shake off that doubt towards Amano, thus, he did not charge straight into space, instead, staying where he was, quiet.
In the 3rd level, not everyone was blinded by greed. There were some long-time experts who also continued to watch as the low-level, blinded experts charged into the black hole.
Amano looked at those powerhouses who were just floating there without moving, his face not betraying any emotions. After 30 seconds, he lowered his hands and closed the spatial hole, before announcing impassively, “The spatial gate has closed, in order to open it once more, there have to be enough sacrifices. This time, only a certain number can enter, the other half will become the offerings for the entrance to the 4th level.”
He was expressionless, and all the half-step True God experts were not able to discern if he was speaking the truth or not.
This time, the experts all exchanged looks, and communicated secretly, not acting impulsively.
All of a sudden, there was a divine sense transmission to Yue Zhong, “Human, this Amano fellow is crafty and dangerous. Let’s have a truce until we enter the 4th level for real.”
Yue Zhong swept out and discovered that it was Jeffery who was communicating with him. He did not hesitate to reply swiftly, “Alright, let’s put off our enmity till we enter the 4th level.”
The Golden Giant Amano was not only strong but truly cunning, knowing to utilize the hatred and conflict between the various experts to drive further wedges. It was even more difficult to deal with compared to the endless Type 9 Red Jade Mantises on the 1st Level. Just a few words from this Amano was enough to send many experts to their doom. It was cruel.
The number of Type 9 experts that had fallen due to Amano’s instigation was more than a few times that of those who died to the beast hordes.
One half-step True God Octopus-man, whose body was over 80m in length, and had over a hundred tentacles asked, “Great Amano, just now, when the spatial gate was opened, why wasn’t the order according to the number of kills?”
There was a cold glint in Amano’s eyes, as he pointed at that half-step True God Octopus-man, and his voice rang out with pressure and authority, “You dare question the mighty God, you deserve death!! Kill him! Whoever kills him first, the Great Amano will open the spatial gate once more, and allow you through to the 4th Level.”
However, this time, no one responded. Everyone was involved with dealing with the Type 9 Golden Skeletons behind, while the rest were watching Amano’s ‘performance’ coldly.
One particular expert whose body was covered in thin dark Dou qi spoke out coldly, “This fellow is definitely a fake he can only defend this place by goading us to kill among ourselves. Guys, let’s all kill him. Based on the past experiences, once he’s dead, we will definitely be able to go to the 4th Level.”
After that, the expert waved his hands, and caused numerous Type 8 Fighter Mechs to appear, directly assaulting Amano.
The moment he acted, the rest of the experts also had icy gazes as they channeled their laws and executed their techniques towards Amano.
“Despicable lowlifes!! You dare attack the great True God Amano, it is a crime punishable death!! Surrender now and I might spare you yet!!” Amano’s eyes flashed dangerously as he let out a loud roar, pointing towards the sky. A surge of energy blasted out, meeting the incoming attacks.
Once he broke those attacks from the Type 9 experts, there was a cold beam that shot out of his chest, as it transformed into a golden shield that formed around him.
Most of the attacks of the half-step True Gods were stopped by the shield, causing a look of shock on the faces of all the half-step True God experts.
“Is he really a True God expert?”
After all, the half-God True God experts gathered here were all the peak experts from the 800 worlds. Their joint force could easily wipe out anything lower than a True God existence. Thus, they were naturally shocked when their attacks were blocked.
One expert roared out in anger, “No! He might not be! Otherwise, he would not be trying to pressure us! Furthermore, since we have already acted, if he really is a True God expert, we have already offended him, and he will still kill us anyway. Since we’ve been forced to this point, we can only kill him!!”
Hearing that enraged roar, the rest all became resolute and continued sending their attacks towards Amano.
The expressionless Amano finally had a change in expression, as he stood up, and turned to flee.
If one was not a True God, no matter how strong one was, it was impossible to keep blocking the attacks of an entire group of half-step True Gods. Especially when they had Gold-Grade treasures as well.
Even a weaker True God would not be able to remain standing when surrounded by a bunch of half-step True Gods with Gold-Grade treasures.
The moment Amano fled, the throne he was on split apart, and a bright white beam of light shot towards the sky, forming a spatial gate that was identical to the ones that had appeared in the 1st and 2nd Levels.
“It’s out!! This is the true entrance to the 4th level!!!”
Seeing that, all of the experts became excited, and charged towards the gate, vying to enter the 4th level.
