The People's God: Sacrificing Trillions to Ascend-Chapter 582 - Backdoor to the Heaven Stair Civilization

Three days later, Han Wu received the news.

The God Kings had communicated with the Will of the Divine Civilization, and consensus had been reached. They would invade the Heaven Stair Civilization. Every adult of the Divine Civilization received encouragement to join the campaign.

This was the beginning of a full-scale war between two powerful civilizations. The first step involved constructing a dedicated gate. This step was critical because one small error could destroy the gate, and such a failure would likely trap their allies in the enemy civilization and lead to their deaths.

The Divine Civilization selected several powerful God Kings to serve as the vanguard.

When Han Wu saw the news, a realization struck him. Within his divine realm stood the Death Tower, a structure born from Xu Hai’s powers. After Xu Hai ascended to God King and helped Han Wu modify the other Death Tower in the Blood Coliseum, his abilities had somehow given rise to this one as well.

For some reason, the Death Tower within his divine realm had connected to the Heaven Stair Civilization. Wait, does that mean I could use the Death Tower to transport all of us to the Heaven Stair Civilization?

Han Wu quickly sought Xu Hai to verify his speculation. The latter believed that it was plausible. Han Wu had already exploited a loophole and obtained hundreds of Laws from the Heaven Stair Challenge. Even so, they needed to verify this through some testing.

With Han Wu’s permission, Xu Hai entered his divine realm to conduct the test himself. Once inside the Death Tower, he unleashed his World power and broke through the first 100 floors easily.

He soon stepped onto the 101st floor, which matched Han Wu’s description. When he stepped deeper, a crushing force pressed upon his body and soul, leaving him powerless to resist it.

Xu Hai relied on his willpower to endure it. After ten days, he adapted and could move around normally. The forest on that floor had fully recovered, and the scenery was beautiful. He gathered materials and constructed a small gate. Once completed, he exited the tower and sought the help of other God Kings to test it out.

Several powerful God Kings passed through the small gate. However, for some reason, they didn’t arrive on the 101st floor. Instead, the coordinates and gates redirected them to the fifty-first floor instead. They had entered the Heaven Stair Civilization directly and skipped the previous fifty floors in one go.

This discovery revealed a hidden backdoor that allowed direct access to enemy territory. The God Kings felt a surge of excitement. With the backdoor in place, they could invade this place easily.

At that moment, a huge group of orcs burst from the forest. Through their senses, they perceived each orc as a Heroic life form, yet their true strength fell short of that level.

Due to the condensation of their power and the floor’s suppression, one of the God Kings got injured.

They quickly withdrew through the gate to find a better solution. They needed a way to establish a stable foothold. Five days later, they returned with large quantities of materials and entered the 101st floor of Han Wu’s Death Tower.

The area was calm, and no orcs were in sight. Scattered fragments of a shattered gate lay on the ground, clear proof that they had once been there and had come under attack. To test the situation further, they used the materials they had brought to construct a castle. The structure was small but sturdy. Even a World life form would need a long time to tear it down. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

After constructing the castle on the 101st floor, they exited the place and reentered through the gate, using coordinates prepared in advance deep within the castle. This time, they arrived again on the fifty-first floor.

The environment was the same, and the pressure affecting them felt the same too. However, this time, they had a sturdy castle protecting them. The orcs attacked again, but the God Kings stood atop the castle walls and struck from afar. In the end, they emerged victorious, establishing a foothold within the Heaven Stair Civilization.

This was the first of many steps toward a full invasion. Once the position was stabilized, they started sending additional forces to the fifty-first floor.

Everyone dispatched there had to withstand the pressure and adapt to it before they could move freely. Such an environment didn’t favor the weak. Most would likely be crushed by the pressure the moment they set foot on the floor.

However, those who endured it discovered that their strength increased and their ranks condensed. Still, the gains from a single floor remained limited. To reach Han Wu’s World-rank condensation, one had to pass through five floors.

Their immediate objective was to create more gates on the lower floors to improve the invasion’s efficiency.

Soon, gates stood on every floor from the first to the fiftieth. Everyone from the Divine Civilization could use those gates to deploy their units. With that, the war between the two powerful civilizations officially started.

Han Wu, as a student from Imperial College, also received the notice from the college to invade the Heaven Stair Civilization.

Naturally, rewards accompanied the campaign. This invasion followed a merit system, where they could earn points by killing life forms from the Heaven Stair Civilization or collecting rare resources. Those points could be exchanged for a wide range of items, including treasures from the Heaven Stair Civilization and the Divine Civilization.

Excitement spread quickly, since this system offered an excellent opportunity to accumulate resources.

Han Wu joined the others and entered the Heaven Stair Civilization through the Divine Civilization’s public gates to see how they differed from his Death Tower.
