Episode 47
City, north of the ‘deep sea’.
The seventh trial location is the sea area located in the northernmost part of the Abyssal Sea.
“It leads downwards.”
The flow of water sharply headed downward.
Just like a vacuum cleaner sucks up dust with strong air pressure.
It feels like the sea water surrounding my body has become heavier.
“Do you know what this place is called?”
“I came here for the first time today.”
“I’m sorry. This is the first time anyone has passed the six trials at once, so I forgot.”
Wow.
I’m sorry.
“It is commonly called the Sea of Death.
yes.”
“The name is needlessly loud.”
“There are very few people who have tried it and come back alive.”
“It’s not like it doesn’t exist at all, right?”
“Yes. They do exist. They say they are beings called the Seven Emperors in the tower.”
Hwang (皇), a title given to the emperor.
They seem to be quite amazing people.
‘The strong ones who only live in the tower.’
This is a story I had never heard of in my past life.
Hmm.
I touched my chin with my right hand.
I’m not worried about whether to go in or not.
‘The reward will be huge.’
The trials of the second floor sea area.
So far, there isn’t a single thing I couldn’t handle.
If those called the Seven Emperors had overcome the ordeal.
I can do it.
‘Combat capabilities are rising steeply.’
Seongcheonjogyekong and the sacred flame.
If you maximize your physical abilities by applying both at the same time, you can surpass a B-class hunter.
I also had martial arts skills.
If only now.
I feel confident that I will not lose even if I fight head-to-head with Jeong Seong-hee, an A-level hunter who has recorded a draw in the past.
‘And… the trials of the tower do not simply test one’s strength.’
Trial of the Mana Vortex.
And the ordeal of passing through volcanic fields
This was it.
A sense of reading the flow of mana.
If you have that ‘feel’, you can pass any number of trials even if your strength is weak.
[Air duration – 101：45：01]
Air pack time was leisurely.
As I quickly cleared the trials one after another, I received a ton of air pack rewards.
I don’t know if I’ll be able to use it all before I leave the second floor.
“See you later.”
“I wish you luck.”
I waved my hand and headed towards the ‘Sea of Death’.
［Tower of Trials – 2nd floor］
［Quest: Jewel of the Sea – Amethyst］
A deep sea with no visible bottom.
Withstand the pressure of the water pressure and condensed mana deep in the sea.
* target
Arrived at the bottom of the sea.
［Exposed to water pressure Lv 10.］
［Restrictions will be strengthened.］
［Mana density increases』
［Status abnormality – You have been exposed to paralysis.］
eww
For a moment, I suppressed the scream that was about to come out.
An enormous pressure pressed down on my body.
I didn’t resist the flow.
‘To pass the ordeal, you have to get to the bottom.’
It feels like my shoulders and feet are being grabbed and pulled violently.
I surrendered myself to the unprecedented power and was sucked under the sea.
[600m under the sea .]
[800m under the sea…….]

[You have entered the 1,000m section under the sea.]
The color of the sea water gradually becomes darker. The sun shining on the water.
Even the light that never breaks and only goes forward.
It did not reach the depths of the sea.
[Water Pressure Lv 10 -> 13]
[Mana Density Lv 8 -> 10]
‘The pressure is getting stronger.’ A feeling of pressure weighing down my entire body.
If I relax even for a moment, my whole body relaxes.
It feels like it’s going to collapse.
‘Mana density is no joke.’
Mana mixed with sea water.
All inanimate objects that make up nature contain mana.
but.
The amount of mana in the Sea of Death was far from natural.
‘ah. There was similar water on the Mu continent.’
Cheonjungsu (千重水).
It is named so because it is heavy.
Cheonjungsoo sucked in everything it touched and crushed it.
so that.
I couldn’t buy any fish or grass.
If you fall into the water of heaven, you cannot come out.
This is because it absorbs everything, regardless of whether it is a tangible object or an invisible, intangible energy.
‘To escape from the depths of the sky, you have to overcome that pressure.’
Why did Cheon Jung-soo suddenly come to mind?
I thought the water in [Sea of Death] resembled Cheonjungsu.
‘I’ll just hold on for now.’
While circulating the chaotic energy, it resonated with the external mana outside the body.
Puzzle! Pajik!
Blue sparks flew as the chaos energy and the mana in the sea collided.
An intense light arose in the deep sea where there was no light.
Every time mana and chaos energy collided, my skin burned.
［Resists external pressure.
［Confusion consumes 52.］
［Chaos consumes 33….］
Since it directly reacted to the pressure of the deep sea, the amount and speed of exhaustion were extremely fast.
In an instant, 1/10th of the chaos energy evaporated.
[1,000m -> 2,000m .]
Water pressure getting stronger.
The density of mana also increased.
There was no sign of the sea floor at all.
Suddenly a different thought occurred to me.
‘no. ‘This water is different from heavenly water.’
In Cheonjungsu, the ‘water’ itself is heavy.
Water that absorbs everything.
The seawater in this area was different from the deep sea water.
High density of mana.
And gravity.
The two things combined continued to weigh down my body.
‘The waters of Heaven do not contain energy, but this sea is full of mana.’
If you synchronize your body with high density mana.
We were able to somehow withstand the water pressure by applying chaos.
I swallowed.
‘Synchronizes with external mana.’
Pajik! Puzzle!
The first attempt was a failure.
Let’s try to match chaos energy with external mana.
It protested strongly and resisted the pressure.
The momentum was intense, like a tiger that had been starving for several days found its prey and went on a rampage.
‘I thought I had complete control over the chaos.’
Sheesh.
I clicked my tongue.
A situation where water pressure and high density of mana are weighing down the body.
The chaotic energy of the hegemony reacted to the pressure and kept trying to get out of control.
I muttered the advice of Seongcheon Jogye-gong.
A change of idea.
As if the whirlpool had been eliminated.
You can pass this ordeal only by reversing the direction of your thoughts.
Chaotic energy spread throughout the body like an angry bull.
The movements became increasingly calm.
On the other hand, the pressure on the body became much stronger.
Wood-duk-duk-duk!
The flesh is crushed and the bones bear the pressure.
I screamed.
‘I can hold on a little longer.’
One arm, one leg.
I’ll give it to you.
If only we could completely tame the chaos and synchronize it with the external energy!
Even in the midst of pain, my mind became infinitely clearer.
How long have you been constantly reciting the nine verses of Seongcheonjogyegong?
Hahaha!
The center of the image world.
The sun radiated bright light.
It is the energy of the World Stone.
The intense sunlight enveloped the chaos that raged wildly.
‘It’s starting to stabilize.’
The nature of the chaotic period has not changed.
It was still subversive and intense.
But mixed in with that thuggish energy was a gentleness like a breeze.
‘It’s possible now!’
I resonate with external mana through chaos.
I ordered it.
Pajik, Pajijik…….
Conflicts subside.
The ultra-dense mana contained in the seawater mixed with the chaotic energy flowing out of the skin.
Like dissolving ink in clear water.
My chaos energy synchronized with the mana of the sea and dyed the surroundings black.
‘I no longer feel the pressure of mana!’
The pressure on my body has become much weaker.
The water pressure was still the same.
Surrounding the body with high-density mana that resonated with the chaos energy was enough to survive.
‘I can’t believe that chaos can be applied in this way.’
In my past life, I didn’t know how to operate like this.
Instead, he spread dark mana widely, dominating the surrounding mana and using it at will.
Although the method of use was similar.
The principle was completely different.
Conformity and forced domination.
Mana drawn through synchronization was more efficient than domination by force.
[You have entered the 10,000m section under the sea.]
[Exposed to water pressure Lv 50.]
My body no longer went down.
10,000 meters under the sea.
Finally we reached the bottom.
* * *
Sea of Death.
The floor was quiet.
I rubbed the ground with my feet.
Some of the settled mud slowly rose to the top and quickly settled down.
‘What is there?’
I strengthened my eyesight and looked around.
A long, long mountain.
Other than that, I couldn’t see anything.
［Tower of Trials – 2nd floor］
［Quest: Jewel of the Sea – Ameji
I have passed the ordeal.]
［50,000pt is given as an achievement reward
is.]
［Air pack adds 200 hours
all.]
[As a reward, you will receive an Abyss Pearl in your compass.
It forms.]
［The Pearl of the Abyss already exists.
The pearl grows in size.]
Is this the end?
An ordeal known to be the most vicious.
The ending was more vain than expected.
‘Isn’t it a bit like having nothing?’
The process of getting here was not easy.
Dual pressure of water pressure and mana.
After thinking of Cheon Jung-soo and struggling, I gained enlightenment and applied the chaos technique.
If I hadn’t realized the new application method.
It must have been quite dangerous.
‘Still… it’s a bit too shabby.’
My brows naturally furrowed.
at that time.
The subspace pocket was shaking.
Ugh-
Six jewels popped out of the pocket.
Jewels rotating in a circle.
The clay sand where the seventh gem was deposited
It came up suddenly through this.
［Passed all seven trials in the fastest time!］
［We recorded an achievement that no one else has achieved.］
［Your name and achievements will be recorded in the tower’s history.］
［500,000 points are given as an achievement reward.］
［A rainbow ring will be given as an achievement reward』
Hahaha!
Seven gems collected while traveling around each sea area.
The natural light contained in each gem was scattered.
‘This……
The light of the seven jewels intertwined to create a beautiful rainbow ring.
A ring made of rainbow bands.
The color gradually cooled and the shape hardened into a white ring.
The seven jewels were reduced in size and embedded throughout the ring.
The final reward of the 2nd floor ordeal.
It was a ring made by binding the power of seven jewels together.
［Rainbow ring］
Grade: Legend [L] / Type: Ring
Durability: 777/777
* All abilities amplified by 20%
*???（Not open due to insufficient conditions）
*???（Not open due to insufficient conditions）
*[Rainbow Blessing] skill can be used
rainbow blessing
Category: Magic
Grade: A+
Restrictions: Rainbow Ring built-in skills.
It removes all negative energy and restores vitality.
Can be used once every 24 hours.
I was speechless.
It’s crazy.
The reward for the sub-quest on the first floor is so good that it would be a shame to compare it to Heart Stone.
It’s amazing performance.
‘It’s the same as five rare-grade rings.’
The ring on my hand is a rare grade [Vulkan’s Oath].
Strength increased by 20%.
In terms of percentage alone, the Rainbow Ring increased the same stats as wearing 5 Vulcan Oaths.
‘The built-in skills are also tremendous.’
Rainbow blessing.
Removes debuffs, heals wounds, and restores energy.
It is a nearly all-purpose recovery magic.
‘It won’t be of use to me, though.’
Compared to the Blessing of Seonghwa, it felt a bit backwards compatible.
However, it had the distinction of being able to heal wounds immediately after use and that it could also be used on others.
I fiddled with the rainbow ring with my left hand.
The unique cold feeling of metal.
In that chill, I realized that this moment was reality.
‘It was a good thing I didn’t go straight to the third floor.’
It was worth going through all seven trials.
-It’s been a long time since anyone passed the trials of the sea.
at that time.
A loud sound came from the direction of the mountain.
The voice was so loud that it echoed across the ocean floor.
Instinctively, he transformed Dark Star into a sword.
‘Who is it? ‘There was no one here.’
I looked around.
I couldn’t see anything.
It was difficult to determine the enemy’s location with Seongcheonjogyegong’s senses.
Ultra-dense mana.
All I had to do was read the waves of magic around me.
-This is the place. Little creature.
A place where voices can be heard.
I searched the mountain, but I couldn’t find the owner of the voice.
‘no way. That mountain…
As if affirming my thoughts.
Gugugugugung-!
What I thought was a mountain began to move.
