On the Eight Extremes Star, I awakened the twelve talismans.

He walked up to a towering building.

The tower gate was open, and a line of large silver characters floated in the air above the lintel.

The Endless Tower.

It is said to be the ultimate goal for all players in the Divine Realm, and it is divided into two modes: team strategy and individual strategy, each with different standards and leaderboards.

There is also a separate ranking of fighters.

He took a few steps closer and tapped the leaderboard.

A row of IDs was neatly arranged from top to bottom. Ye Han casually clicked on the video of the top ID. The screen popped up, showing a player wearing the most basic newbie gear, standing bare-handed in front of a BOSS that was over ten meters tall.

There were no weapons, no armor, and no dazzling skill effects.

Only the purest fists and feet.

The damage never exceeds 1 point.

The player slowly whittled down the BOSS to death, the process was smooth and efficient, and the player himself did not suffer any damage.

Ye Han flipped through a few more, without exception.

All the fighters on the leaderboard were wearing beginner gear and taking on each floor's boss with their bare hands.

Their equipment slots were as clean as those of a newly created account, yet their skills were breathtaking.

There is an unwritten rule in the world of martial arts.

Everyone believed that the body was the best weapon, so they all honed their physiques and learned fighting techniques, disdaining to rely on any external aids.

The attribute bonuses provided by equipment are considered a desecration of the fighting spirit, and weapons are seen as crutches that only the weak rely on.

The same goes for rainbow stones.

Therefore, few fighters would use the power of the Rainbow Stone to enhance their combat strength. In their view, it is also an external object and violates the fundamental spirit of martial arts.

This rule is simply incomprehensible to ordinary players.

The reason why the gap is so large is actually quite simple.

One side consists of flowers in a greenhouse, wrapped up in layers of skills, equipment, and various buffs, resulting in limited combat power.

On the other hand, they are fighters who have been trained through real hard work.

Having experienced countless life-or-death battles in the real world, every move and every stance is an instinct honed by blood and sweat, and reaction speed has long been honed to the millisecond level.

For fighters, the game is no longer just a game; it has become an extension of real-life combat.

Being able to challenge the same opponent an unlimited number of times and repeatedly try various dangerous fighting styles—isn't that the perfect training ground?

Ye Han flipped through several more pages of the videos on the leaderboard, and the more he watched, the more he felt that this path suited his taste.

"There's plenty of time. Since there are no talisman amplification spells in the Divine Realm, it's good to use it to practice martial arts. Besides, there's no shortage of opponents in the Divine Realm, so it's not that boring."

Just do it.

Ye Han walked directly into the entrance of the Endless Tower.

The massive stone door slowly opened before him, and a cold, white light shone through the cracks.

The door closed as soon as people entered; the space inside was quite large.

Then, a light curtain rose from the ground.

Wait for the white light to dissipate.

A colossal creature appeared in the center of the tower.

This is the boss of this floor, the kobold lord Ilfang.

It was over ten meters tall, and its thick legs made the stone slabs tremble slightly when they stepped on the ground.

It held a huge iron shield in its left hand and dragged a heavy battle axe in its right, the blade of which was as wide as a fan and gleamed coldly.

How majestic!

Ye Han assumed a fighting stance, watching his opponent's movements.

The kobold lord Ilfang suddenly raised his head, the muscles in his thick neck tensed sharply, and his long, gaping mouth opened wide.

A piercing roar rang out.

Before the roar had even subsided, multiple beams of white light appeared around Ilfang.

One, two, three...

Each beam of light left behind a small figure after it dissipated.

Those are kobold soldiers.

They were only half a person tall, hunched over, with thin limbs, wearing simple leather armor and scattered bone ornaments, and holding short spears or rusty iron knives in their hands.

There were many of them; eighteen short figures scattered from different directions, their steps swift and chaotic, emitting low squeaking noises, darting back and forth around the dog-headed man's feet.

The kobold let out a low growl.

As if receiving a command, all the kobold soldiers rushed towards Ye Han from all directions.

In Ye Han's view, their movements were far too slow.

Ye Han's figure darted swiftly through the group of soldiers, each dodge perfectly avoiding attacks, and each counterattack cleanly taking down a soldier blocking his path.

In the blink of an eye, he tore a large gap in the encirclement of the dog-headed soldiers.

He did not linger in the fight.

Although the soldiers were numerous, they posed a limited threat. The real problem was the kobold lord standing at the rear.

Ye Han focused his attacks on the leader, landing punch after punch on its leg.

-1 -1 -1

The damage numbers popped up above the lord's head, so small as to be almost negligible.

But the frequency has remained stable.

No matter how ferocious its attacks were, they could never touch Ye Han.

From start to finish, the battle lasted only a few minutes. The lord's massive body finally collapsed to the ground after accumulating a series of -1 damage.

This was Ye Han's first time trying this fighting style, and it felt very novel.

"It's really fun. Lingling must have put a lot of effort into making this game. The combat effects and feedback are very realistic."

"The kobold lord is just an appetizer; there are many more levels to come, enough to keep you busy."

With the boss dead, Ye Han received the reward for the first level.

A black coat with special effects, and a small amount of gold coins.

Ye Han glanced at it briefly and then walked to the next floor.

The second level of the Endless Tower is now open.

The third layer, the fourth layer, the fifth layer...

The gate opened and closed again and again, and Ye Han became more and more adept at fighting, with the BOSSes lasting less and less time in front of him.

Ye Han's condition improved as the fight progressed, and he became increasingly excited.

The speed at which they climbed the tower was astonishing.

They hardly lingered between floors, moving directly to the next floor after finishing one.

Seamless integration.

He didn't even look closely at the generous rewards for clearing the level; his attention wasn't on that.

In just a few hours, it surged to more than two thousand floors.

On the leaderboard of the Endless Tower, the name "Half-White Paper" shot up from the bottom like a rocket, breaking a series of long-standing records for completion time.

After each refreshed record, the system automatically adds a short timestamp and the player's ID. All the IDs are the same, arranged neatly as if in a queue.

Half blank paper, half blank paper....

In the levels Ye Han passed through, he almost never saw anyone else's name.

After entering the 2,000th floor, Ye Han began to feel a bit of pressure.

The boss's health has clearly increased, and the mechanics have changed a lot.

The boss is no longer using simple attack methods; it's starting to use more creative tactics.

Some bosses unleash wide-area damage, some even possess the ability to transform multiple times, and others can alter the terrain.

This significantly increased the difficulty.

But this challenge actually had a better catalytic effect.

While the previous levels were fun to fight, they were too easy, like chopping melons and vegetables.

After memorizing the other party's general behavior and habits, rely solely on your reaction to tough it out.

While that kind of gameplay is stress-relieving, it can get monotonous if you play it too often.

Now, the boss is starting his real counterattack.
