Especially when it came to drinking water,
They almost had to purify the black water several times before they could use it. This was a major undertaking, but fortunately, they had all reached the legendary level and could purify a large amount of drinking water daily.
"After using a few heaven and earth rare items, how do you feel now?"
Wang Luo asked Zhao Qingxuan.
"A feeling that is almost imperceptible, indescribable, impossible to articulate!"
Zhao Qingxuan shook her head.
Recently, the heaven and earth rare items harvested by the base's expeditionary personnel were first used by the top brass, but they all experienced a hazy sensation, identical to Wang Luo's initial feelings when he first used heaven and earth rare items.
However, this step was still a long way from truly comprehending a fragment of law.
"What about you? How are you doing?"
"Almost there, I feel that it won't be long before the fragment of law undergoes a transformation and forms a true law!"
"So soon? Won't that mean you're about to be promoted to the Divine level?"
Wang Luo shook his head: "Law is just a matter of time for me, but I still don't know what divine substance is."
"Don't worry, we'll catch a subterranean beast and ask it when the time comes!"
"By the way, we asked a few captured beasts before, and they said they entered here from the underground world through something called a 'Sky Ladder' to emerge quickly!"
"Sky Ladder? What is that?"
"According to the beasts, it's something like a ladder. Once you ascend it, you can quickly rise from underground to the surface!"
"There's such a miraculous thing? Has anyone seen it in the rifts?"
Wang Luo had never heard of a Sky Ladder.
"No, it's said that the thing disintegrates as soon as they ascend. I suspect this is also why not many subterranean beasts come up, because there aren't enough Sky Ladders to transport them!"
Wang Luo stroked his chin.
He had always wondered how those beasts could possibly climb up through the rifts. He never expected it to be this way!
But if that's the case,
Wouldn't he be unable to descend to search for substances containing divinity?
"When the time comes, we'll capture a few beasts and ask them what divine substance is first?"
"Okay!"
If possible, Wang Luo naturally did not want to enter the underground world so soon.
Not long after,
Zhao Qingxuan brought back news,
To Wang Luo's shock, the so-called divine substance was actually the gray mist that appeared from the rifts!
"That thing is actually divine substance?"
He was stunned.
"There are two types of divine substance: one is the energy source crystals from within divine-level zombies, and the other is absorbing the gray mist!"
Zhao Qingxuan said.
"Absorbing gray mist? How do you absorb it? Do you absorb it with your mouth?"
"Uh... I guess so!"
Wang Luo scratched his head.
This method of advancement was truly strange!
After several more days,
Zhao Qingxuan brought back detailed information from several different zombies, and they all spoke consistently, mentioning those two methods. Especially when absorbing the divine substance from the gray mist, one only needed to sit in the mist and absorb it through the mouth and nose!
"Are you going to start absorbing it now?" Zhao Qingxuan asked.
"No, I'll start absorbing the divine substance after my fragment of law forms into a true law divine ring!"
The reason Wang Luo did this was also to buy more time for others.
Even with the help of heaven and earth rare items, the others in the base would likely need a long time. If he were to advance to the Divine level, and the two realms were completely connected, the appearance of divine-level zombies would put the base in a very disadvantageous situation!
So, if possible, Wang Luo even wanted to delay his advancement to the Divine level as much as possible.
A few days later,
Another God-Child level half-beast appeared. Wang Luo took action and directly used the "Time Slowdown" special ability, then slew it.
It could be said that,
The Time special ability was the nemesis of their escape.
Almost all the half-beasts Wang Luo had killed had involved the Time special ability!
Recently,
The zombies had quieted down again. They truly couldn't break through the base's defenses.
However, among the awakened ones who went out to search for heaven and earth rare items, people died almost every day. It could even be said that this was the period with the highest number of casualties for the base in the past few years.
Zombies and alien beasts were all enemies of humanity!
The heaven and earth rare items nearby had almost all been searched. Even the rifts had been searched. To continue collecting heaven and earth rare items, they would have to travel further.
Actually, in this apocalypse, whether it was humans or alien beasts, their primary goal should be to resist the alien beasts.
However, the alien beasts from the underground world looked down on humans from the bottom of their hearts and liked to feed on them, making cooperation difficult.
No way,
For those who were hostile to humans and wanted to feed on them, the people in the base could only draw their swords.
After a while,
Zombies and alien beasts appeared one after another, but the surface of the Earth was vast. The beings from the underground world couldn't all appear near Anluo City!
Wang Luo's daily life was also very simple,
Killing some zombies, comprehending laws, and taking a stroll on the city walls with the Horse King.
Life was quite carefree!
But it was different for others, especially the higher-ups. They were almost immersed in comprehending laws every day, and Zhao Qingxuan and Yang Shu were no exception!
One day,
The laws around Wang Luo underwent a change. Those magical law fragments began to merge, forming an entire chain-like structure, emitting a blue light.
According to what those alien beasts had said, once a law chain was formed, one could prepare to absorb divine substance and advance to the Divine level!
One to three-tribulation gods were virtual gods, requiring continuous reinforcement of the law chain until a law divine ring was formed. Then, with the law divine ring as the foundation, one could condense their own "divine image," and upon forming the divine image, they would reach True God, which corresponded to four to six-tribulation gods!
At this moment, Wang Luo had already formed one law chain. As long as he continued to reinforce it and form a closed law circle, he could condense a divine image.
"Those underground alien beasts mentioned that one can continue to comprehend laws!"
But under normal circumstances, no one would choose to stay at this level and continue comprehending laws. If they could advance, they would naturally want to reach the Divine level!
Only Wang Luo was an exception.
He chose to remain a demigod to buy more time for the others in the base.
Then, he began to use his powerful mental energy to aid in comprehending the wind element law, focusing on comprehending one law to its extreme.
[Congratulations to the host for surviving in the apocalypse for another year, and you have obtained SSS-rank Space Special Ability!]
[Please continue to survive in the apocalypse for two more years, and you will be rewarded with SSS-rank Forbidden Chaos Special Ability!]
Hmm?
Wang Luo expected to receive some other special ability, but he didn't expect to receive a Chaos special ability this time!
"Forbidden Special Ability?"
He was somewhat curious.
Even powerful special abilities like Time and Space did not have the word "Forbidden" attached to them.
"Does this mean that Chaos Special Ability is almost the most powerful special ability the system can bestow?"
"Please, don't give me any more special abilities, give me something else!"
