However, although Wang Ping regretted having to use the five-digit special item · Forbidden Magic Domain, he was never one to hesitate.

    When it needs to be used, it must be used.

    As for how to deal with the Second-Generation Chat Group leader, Dao Yi, he would have to think of other methods.

    Maybe, after clearing the Abyss Mode of the third level of the Heavenly Tower and achieving an SSS-grade rating, the rewards might be far more valuable and effective than the five-digit special item Forbidden Magic Domain.

    “Speaking of which, after I fixed the selection to Abyss Mode, the Heavenly Tower Intelligence mentioned that my reward quota would be increased. Perhaps, getting a four-digit item this time isn’t impossible.”

    Wang Ping’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.

    Next, Wang Ping composed himself and waited quietly for the game to begin.

    As soon as the game started, Wang Ping unhesitatingly used the five-digit special item · Forbidden Magic Domain.

    With the activation of the five-digit special item · Forbidden Magic Domain, all the players present noticed the anomaly, and their expressions changed.

    “Welcome to my domain, everyone. Now, please go to your deaths and continue my legend.”

    Wang Ping glanced at the other six players whose expressions had drastically changed, his mouth curling into a polite smile as he spoke.

    Upon hearing this, the other players instantly understood that Wang Ping was Tian Yan, and the reason they couldn’t use their talents and items was because of him.

    Without delay, the Chubby Player and others coordinated an attack against Wang Ping.

    In response, Wang Ping remained composed, taking down each player with a single punch.

    “Now, it’s time to reap the gold.”

    Wang Ping looked at the scattered corpses and chuckled, beginning to loot the bodies one by one.

    From the Masked Player, Wang Ping obtained two items.

    The first item was the Masked Player’s ghostly face mask, a low-grade five-digit special item. Wearing this mask concealed one’s aura and appearance, making it impossible for others to discern their strength.

    Even a Mystic Immortal couldn’t see through its effects.

    Additionally, the ghostly face mask could summon ghostly creatures to aid in battle.

    The second item from the Masked Player was also a low-grade five-digit special item · Ghost Dance Transformation, allowing the user to transform into a monstrous ghost and enhance their combat abilities.

    “Two low-grade five-digit items, not bad. Although low-grade five-digit special items are of little use to me now, they might still be useful in the Heavenly Tower game.”

    Wang Ping’s eyes twinkled as he thought.

    Unfortunately, these items were stolen goods and couldn’t be easily sold.

    Otherwise, Wang Ping would have preferred to get rid of them in exchange for world origin essence.

    Keeping these stolen goods was risky.

    Throwing them away would be a waste.

    Next, Wang Ping began looting the Chubby Player’s body.

    The Chubby Player had three special items on him.

    A mid-grade five-digit special item · Storage Ring: In the Heavenly Tower game, it could store 1000 cubic meters. Outside, its capacity was immense, comparable to a Small Universe, with a built-in world of life containing various ingredients.

    A low-grade five-digit special item · Light Particle Barrier: Forming a defense barrier resembling light particles, the strength of the barrier could be enhanced by consuming mental power.

    A low-grade five-digit special item · Space Imprisonment: A one-time-use item that could seal a certain range of space, preventing anyone from leaving.

    “This Chubby Player sure has some good stuff on him.”

    Wang Ping marveled.

    However, there were no six-digit special items on these two players. Were they consumed in previous games?

    “Probably. Many items are consumables, so it’s normal to use them up.”

    Wang Ping murmured, recalling.

    Just like him, he didn’t want to use the Cursed Doll and Forbidden Magic Domain, but in the end, he used them.

    Next, Wang Ping composed himself and continued looting.

    His next target was the female player with a bunny headpiece.

    The female player with a bunny headpiece had two five-digit special items on her.

    A low-grade five-digit special item · Bunny Headpiece: Summoning a rabbit with freezing abilities to assist in battle.

    A mid-grade five-digit special item · Hexagram Radiant Array: A one-time-use item that could form an incredibly strong defensive barrier to block attacks. If faced with extremely powerful attacks, it could form a hexagram trapping array to confine the enemy.

    PS: This item could be passively used, automatically triggering when taking life-threatening attacks. It was enough to withstand attacks at the quasi-Immortal King level.

    “This female player with a bunny headpiece has some good items. However, she actually has a mid-grade five-digit special item. Could she have achieved a high rating in the second level of the Heavenly Tower? Probably not SSS-level, but SSS-level might be possible.”

    Wang Ping looked at the mid-grade five-digit special item · Hexagram Radiant Array, his thoughts flickering.

    However, Wang Ping thought about the illusion talent ability of this player with the rabbit head decoration and felt that it was indeed possible for her to achieve an SSS-level rating…

    Next, Wang Ping began to search the body of the suited man…

    This time, Wang Ping was quite disappointed…

    Because this suited man didn’t have a single special item on him…

    “No wonder this guy was the first to get killed… He’s really weak. With such a weak foundation, he still dared to choose the Abyss Mode of the third level of the Heavenly Tower… His courage is truly big…”

    Wang Ping searched around but couldn’t find any special items, showing a look of disdain…

    Next, Wang Ping searched the body of the black-robed woman…

    This time, Wang Ping found a special item…

    Five-digit low-level special item · Shadow-Merging Black Robe: This item allows the player to merge into shadows, which is quite a good ability…

    “Hmm, this mark…”

    After stripping the black-robed woman, Wang Ping discovered the same mark on the back of her hand as the suited man, narrowing his eyes…

    “No wonder in the first Life Simulator, the black-robed woman killed the suited man first… Turns out they belong to the same organization and entered as a team. It was because they knew each other that the black-robed woman had speculations about the game due to that mural. In the end, her judgment was correct, it indeed was the ‘Seven Kills’…”

    After contemplating, Wang Ping sighed…

    If he didn’t have the Life Simulator, it wouldn’t be so easy to know the true essence of the game…

    “I must say, this black-robed woman is really ruthless… Right from the start, she killed her teammate to secure her position…”

    Wang Ping smacked his lips…

    “But I can understand. After all, this mark represents a certain evil power in the multiverse. Killing teammates is a routine operation…”

    “Lastly is the shota player… I hope he has some powerful items on him…”

    Wang Ping composed himself and searched the shota player’s body…

    Then, Wang Ping obtained two items…

    Five-digit low-level special item · Desperate Transformation: Wearing this item will make the user extremely timid, but in the face of desperation, there will be a drastic reversal, becoming wild. All attributes will be greatly enhanced, and the consumption of mental power when using talents will be reduced…

    Five-digit low-level special item · Justice Bracelet: A one-time use item. Using this item allows you to designate an evil creature for a justice trial and eliminate it…

    PS: The upper limit of the ability is five-digit legendary, and the effect in the Heavenly Tower will vary…

    “These two items are useless to me… It seems this shota player relies mainly on his talent ability to be so powerful…”

    Wang Ping looked at these two items, frowning slightly…

    The Desperate Transformation item affects one’s personality…

    Also, merely five-digit level items… are indeed useless to him now… Wearing them would do more harm than good…

    He, Wang Ping, has a Life Simulator… He needs to stay calm in doing things… Chasing a little power boost at the cost of a steady personality is putting the cart before the horse…

    As for the second item, it’s even more useless… It can’t help him at all in the outside world…

    Perhaps it can be of some use in the Heavenly Tower…

    However, the usage conditions of this item are somewhat harsh, and it’s merely a five-digit low-level item… As Wang Ping progresses higher in the tower, its effectiveness will definitely decline…

    Not to mention, this thing is a one-time use item…

    “Forget it, I won’t conclude too quickly… If I accidentally get proven wrong, that would be awkward…”

    Wang Ping shook his head again, composed himself, and stored all these items into the Storage Ring he took from the Chubby Player…

    Next, it was time to deal with the Shadow. Wang Ping began his actions…

    The subsequent developments were no different from those in the Life Simulator…

    Wang Ping found the Bloody Blade and killed the first shadow, completing the clearance conditions…

    “I want to return…”

    Then, Wang Ping said to the Heavenly Tower’s intelligence…

    “Ding, main quest detected completed. Congratulations to the player for passing the third level of the Heavenly Tower game world: Seven Kills…”

    As soon as Wang Ping chose to return, the lively voice of the Heavenly Tower’s intelligence rang out…

    Then, Wang Ping was instantly enveloped in white light, leaving this game world and returning to his exclusive room…

    Following that, the lively voice of the Heavenly Tower’s intelligence sounded again…

    “Ding, detecting that the player chose the Abyss Mode in the third level of the Heavenly Tower – Seven Kills and completed the main quest. Rating: A-level…”

    “Ding, detecting that the player performed seven kills and perfectly cleared the quest. Rating upgrade: SSS-level. Awarded with an SSS-grade Abyss Treasure Chest…”

    “Ding, full tower announcement: Player Tian Yan chose the Abyss Mode and perfectly cleared the third level of the Heavenly Tower game world, achieving an SSS-level rating, becoming the 85th player to receive an SSS-level rating for the third level of the Heavenly Tower…”

    “Phew, it really is an SSS-level rating. This feels good…”

    Wang Ping saw the continuous stream of information appearing on the pop-up screen and smiled.

    To be honest, although he was ninety percent confident that he would get an SSS-level rating, he was still worried about one thing.

    This matter was the Seven Kills Clan, which required killing his own shadow to complete the Seven Kills Clan’s perfect rating.

    It now seems that the conditions of the Heavenly Tower are not so harsh, just having to kill seven is enough.

    These seven could be shadows or other players, just any seven heads would do.

    “However, are there only 85 players left who have received SSS-level ratings on the third level? This is really getting harder and harder… To think this is just the third level…”

    Wang Ping recalled the prompt sound of the Heavenly Tower’s AI, feeling a bit amazed.

    He wondered if all those players who got SSS-level ratings had grown to triple digits in rank.

    If that were true, then could Wang Ping be considered a triple-digit candidate?

    “Tsk tsk tsk, triple digits… quite strong. But even triple digits can no longer satisfy my ambitions now.”

    Wang Ping clicked his tongue, sighed, then calmed his mind, looking at his reward. He chose to claim the SSS-grade Abyss Treasure Chest and opened it.

    As Wang Ping opened the SSS-grade Abyss Treasure Chest, a golden light appeared, and the pleasant voice of the Heavenly Tower’s AI sounded instantly.

    At the same time, some images and text appeared before Wang Ping.

    “Ding, congratulations on opening the SSS-grade Abyss Treasure Chest, you have received the following rewards:

    ①. +200 to Heavenly Tower game character’s physique attribute.

    ②. Five-digit top-grade special item: Light of Shattering.

    ③. Four-digit Stone of Rules.

    ④. Four-digit low-level special item: Rain of Death.”

    Five-digit top-grade special item: Light of Shattering: A one-time use item. After use, it can form a light of destruction with terrifying power, enough to annihilate a four-digit entry-level strong person, making them unable to revive, even if they possess a four-digit low-level resurrection item.

    PS: This item originates from the Heavenly Tower game and can be used within it. However, the ability values will be adjusted. Please use it cautiously.

    Four-digit Stone of Rules: Possessing this item allows your talent to evolve into a four-digit talent.

    Four-digit low-level special item: Rain of Death: A one-time use item. After use, it can form a rainstorm with a deadly aura, corroding everything. Even four-digit legendary strong individuals would not want to touch it lightly. If a four-digit elite strong person came into contact with the Rain of Death, their life would quickly be corroded and extinguished.

    PS: This item originates from the Heavenly Tower game and can be used within it. However, the ability values will be adjusted. Please use it cautiously.

    PS: This item is extremely dangerous and may kill the user if used improperly. Please pay extra attention.

    “Holy crap!”

    Wang Ping was stunned by the items he received this time.

    Although he knew his fixed choice of Abyss Mode would enhance the reward, the increase was tremendous.

    Normally, even scoring an SSS-level rating on the third level of the Heavenly Tower would only yield two five-digit top-grade special items.

    However, this time he got one five-digit top-grade special item, one four-digit low-level special item, and finally, also a four-digit Stone of Rules!

    A four-digit Stone of Rules, something Wang Ping had dreamed of!

    Previously, Wang Ping had been vexed about how to obtain a four-digit Stone of Rules, considering whether he’d need to clear levels beyond the tenth or twentieth to get such a high-level item.

    He truly hadn’t expected to get it on just the third level.

    “It can only be said that blessings come with misfortunes. Although choosing fixed Abyss Mode is definitely a big pit, the reward boost is astonishing.”

    Wang Ping sighed with amazement at this round of rewards, feeling extremely satisfied with the items.

    “Next, I just need to refresh my cultivation rewards through the Life Simulator to easily become a four-digit existence. Once I reach four digits, dealing with the Second-Generation Chat Group leader Dao Yi will be like a father disciplining his son… I’ll be able to crush him easily, no matter how strange his talent is, it won’t make me sick across levels.”

    Wang Ping’s lips curled into a slight smile as he began to imagine the scene of trouncing Dao Yi, the leader of the Second-Generation Chat Group.

    He had previously thought he needed the Forbidden Magic Domain to deal with him, feeling a bit troubled about using it. Now it seemed that trading one Forbidden Magic Domain for so many good items was a huge win.

    Next, with a thought, Wang Ping exited the Heavenly Tower space and returned to the villa where Alpha was.

    “Alpha, make me a cup of milk tea.”

    Upon returning, Wang Ping snapped his fingers and smiled at Alpha.

    Judging by her response, Alpha seemed to understand something, her eyes lit up, and she obediently went to make tea for Wang Ping.

    Meanwhile, the entire Allheavens Playground was once again stirred by Wang Ping’s attainment of an SSS-level rating.

    After all, Wang Ping had just chosen the fixed Abyss Mode and now received another SSS-level rating it was truly impressive.

    “Tian Yan…”

    Dao Yi, the leader of the Second-Generation Chat Group, also heard the prompt sound, feeling both shocked and somewhat envious.

    Who was this Tian Yan? He had to be a monster, being able to clear three levels in a short time and get SSS-level ratings.

    “If I could continuously obtain SSS-grade evaluations like him and display my potential, then in this vast multiverse, there would be nowhere I couldn’t go.”

    Dao Yi mumbled to himself.

    However, he ultimately let out a long sigh, abandoning this futile fantasy.

    He hadn’t chosen Abyss Mode, and after passing the ninth layer, he didn’t dare to proceed any further.

    The shadow of death that loomed so close made a deep impression on him, filling him with heartfelt fear.

    The Heavenly Tower, while a shortcut to becoming powerful quickly, was fraught with dangers that could chill and terrify most people.

    Next, Dao Yi composed himself, his eyes revealing a cold glint, and directly contacted someone.

    Soon, a shadowy figure appeared in front of Dao Yi, speaking sinisterly: “Hehehe, Dao Yi, you are truly ruthless, selling off everything from the Second-Generation Chat Group, turning your subordinates, brothers, descendants, and even your progeny into slaves, all for a single-use permission from the Demon King.”

    “Hmph, no need for your commentary, as long as I can deal with Alpha and that guy, everything is worth it.”

    Dao Yi snorted coldly as he spoke.

    “Hehehe, interesting. Let’s hope you succeed.”

    The shadowy figure laughed eerily, leaving behind a black mist-like item with Dao Yi before quickly disappearing.

    “Better you than me. As long as I live, anything is possible.”

    Dao Yi’s face was somber, his eyes filled with killing intent.

    Then, he left his abode and headed directly towards Alpha’s location, crushing the black misty item in his hand.

    As Dao Yi crushed the black misty item, he temporarily gained the Demon King’s permission, allowing him to forcibly compel someone or an entity to play a game with him.

    However, because this Demon King permission was a castrated version, the only game available was a pure duel.

    Only when one side died or surrendered would the game end.

    But purchasing such items wasn’t a glorious thing, so Dao Yi had no interest in publicizing it.

    For this reason, he set up an array of formation patterns along the way, sealing off everything here.

    “Alpha, and my dear juniors, come out now.”

    Dao Yi stood in the sky, coldly overlooking the villa area below.

    Inside the villa, as soon as Dao Yi arrived, Wang Ping noticed his presence and was somewhat surprised.

    When Dao Yi used the Demon King permission, Wang Ping was even more shocked.

    “Demon King permission? No, temporary Demon King permission? Dao Yi, he really spared no expense.”

    Alpha also looked outside, quite surprised.

    “My growth rate is too terrifying. He’s desperate, so it’s understandable that he would do something like this.”

    After calmly finishing his tea, Wang Ping said.

    Although it was a bit out of his plan, with Dao Yi suddenly attacking, Wang Ping couldn’t upgrade to a four-digit rank before dueling him.

    However, Wang Ping’s strength was already formidable, and he had many valuable items, so he wasn’t truly afraid of Dao Yi.

    He just preferred to play it safe.

    “Not coming out? If you dare not come out, then just die!”

    Outside, seeing that Wang Ping and Alpha had no intention of coming out, Dao Yi snorted coldly and attacked. Terrifying power brewed in his palm, aimed at the villa.

    In battles within the Allheavens Playground, destructive power is limited, making it appear less formidable than it would be in the outside world, but the force itself wasn’t diminished at all.

    Dao Yi, being a peak five-digit powerhouse, unleashed a frighteningly powerful attack.

    However, this was only true for an ordinary five-digit peak powerhouse.

    To Wang Ping, Dao Yi’s strength was far too weak.

    Facing this attack, Wang Ping merely mobilized his power to form a chaotic energy barrier, easily blocking Dao Yi’s attack and leaving the villa completely undamaged.

    Then, Wang Ping’s figure moved, appearing outside and meeting Dao Yi’s gaze from a thousand meters away.

    At this moment, Dao Yi looked at the unscathed villa and then at Wang Ping, his expression dark.

    With that brief test, he once again realized one thing.

    Wang Ping had become even stronger since he had someone blow up the Small Universe not long ago.

    In such a short time, his strength had seen a tremendous increase.

    This rapid growth was insane, driving Dao Yi to utter jealousy and madness.

    Dao Yi had cultivated for so many years, only to be so easily surpassed by a junior. It was truly pathetic.
