Born Sacred

Chapter 241: Great Wilderness Civilization,

Now that he had finally cleared it, he was completely drained.

Despite his exhaustion, Noah spirit was filled with excitement as he quickly checked the reward.

[Intermediate Blood Essence]

[Quality: Perfect]

[Type: Item]

[After use, it can significantly increase Bloodline concentration and is effective for Bloodlines up to Perfect Grade.]

Noah’s eyes immediately lit up.

The main reason he had pushed himself to clear the 200th floor was naturally for the universal rewards. His secondary goal, however, had always been this Intermediate Blood Essence.

The value of Bloodline Essence far exceeded that of Skill Crystals. It was an item that was almost never seen on the trading market, making it extremely difficult for Noah to obtain through normal means.

Now, with this Intermediate Blood Essence, his Savage Bloodline could gain a massive amount of experience. Although it could not guarantee raising the Savage Bloodline to its maximum level, it would greatly shorten the process.

Once the Savage Bloodline reached max level, Noah would be able to evolve his Bloodline into the Epic Grade.

At that point, his strength would undergo another tremendous leap.

Furthermore, Noah still possessed an Advanced Blood Essence that he had been saving for after his Bloodline advanced to the Epic Grade.

If it were not for the fact that his true body had not entered the Civilization Convergence Zone, Noah would have already used it long ago.

...

Noah immediately used the lottery chance and obtained a Perfect Grade item.

After breaking through the 200th floor, Noah did not stop climbing.

He rested properly for an hour before continuing his ascent.

Beyond the 200th floor, the monsters became even more terrifying. Even for Noah, every battle was incredibly difficult.

One hour of rest was far from enough to restore him to peak condition. The following floors only provided ten minutes of recovery time, causing Noah’s condition to worsen with each battle.

In the end, he managed to clear four additional floors before finally stopping at the 205th floor.

This result was slightly below Noah’s highest Combat Art standard.

However, this was the price of climbing continuously. Under such conditions, it was extremely difficult to perform at one’s absolute limit.

Noah did not mind.

It was not a major checkpoint like the hundredth or two-hundredth floor, so clearing a few fewer floors made little difference.

Sky Piercing Tower, First Floor, at the Light Gate.

When Noah stepped out of the tower and saw the scene before him, he could not help but feel startled.

This time, the people waiting outside the tower made no mistake. The moment Noah appeared, everyone surged toward him.

"Hello, I am—"

"Respected expert, may I ask who you are...?"

Some introduced themselves while others eagerly tried to learn Noah’s identity. The Awakeners came from many different races, and quite a few of them had bizarre appearances. Watching them rush toward him like a swarm made Noah’s scalp tingle.

With a single thought, Noah’s figure blurred and gradually faded from sight, as though he had become invisible. He calmly passed through the crowd surrounding him.

This was the Civilization Convergence Zone, a place where physical combat was forbidden. Everyone entered using only their consciousness, and because of that, it was possible to forcibly isolate oneself from others.

Of course, this only worked after entering the Civilization Convergence Zone. During the moment of entry, one could not avoid being noticed.

"Hello. I am Valdrik, the Fourth Child of Civilization of the Great Wilderness Civilization. May I know your name, friend?"

A deep voice entered Noah’s ears.

Great Wilderness Civilization.

Noah’s heart stirred slightly.

He was already familiar with this civilization. Two members of the Great Wilderness Civilization were ranked on the Tower of Heaven Ranking, with the highest-ranked individual holding the 108th position.

Fourth Child of Civilization?

It was obvious that the Great Wilderness Civilization was definitely not a First-Level Civilization, and perhaps not even a Second-Level Civilization.

Noah stopped walking.

He was genuinely curious about these higher-level civilizations.

"Blue Star Civilization. Noah."

Noah did not try to conceal his identity.

What truly needed to remain hidden were the coordinates of Blue Star.

As for everything else, Noah had no intention of hiding it.

"Blue Star Civilization? I’ve never heard of it."

"You people are too ignorant. The Blue Star Civilization is actually quite famous. It ranks around 11,000 among the First-Level Civilizations on the Civilization Stele."

"11,000? I’ve still never heard of it."

"That’s normal. The Blue Star Civilization has not even been in the Civilization Convergence Zone for a full month yet."

"What? Less than a month? Could the Blue Star Civilization be a Legendary Race?"

"Not even close. The Blue Star Civilization is only an Excellent Grade race."

The surrounding Awakeners had also heard Noah’s introduction. Some looked confused, while others were visibly shocked.

Noah’s climb had lasted nearly twenty hours. During that time, the sensation caused by the Blue Star Civilization on the Civilization Stele had already spread throughout the Civilization Convergence Zone.

Those who had heard of the Blue Star Civilization stared at Noah in disbelief.

None of them had expected that the expert who reached the 200th floor of the Sky Piercing Tower would actually be the Child of Civilization from the Blue Star Civilization.

The reactions of the crowd quickly split into two extremes.

Some hurriedly backed away and looked at Noah with fear in their eyes.

Others became even more enthusiastic, their eyes shining as they eagerly tried to get closer to him.

Valdrik looked at Noah with burning eyes filled with admiration and intense fighting spirit.

He had already learned that Noah began climbing from the 111th floor and still managed to finish only three floors behind him.

Such a performance was undeniably superior to his own, and even Valdrik had to admit his inferiority in this regard.

However, admiration did not mean surrender.

In Valdrik’s opinion, the gap between them was not truly that large.

"Noah, are you interested in a competition? Let us see who can reach the 300th floor first and who can enter the Tower of Heaven Ranking before the other."

Valdrik openly challenged Noah.
