Chapter 733 - Preparing for the Lightning Tribulation
"It's right here." As soon as he reached above the entrance, he immediately struck the ground as hard as possible, destroying the ground and entering the tunnel.
Knowing that Alex was on the verge of a breakthrough, she immediately helped him floating as they descended to the ground gently. "Your foundation is rock-solid, and with the assistance of Undying Fire Body, you are getting a terrifying boost from this power… I have realized that it's not the power of quenching that is the main boost to your cultivation. Instead, it's the Spiritual Energy around. Have you noticed that the Spiritual Energy became denser as we killed more monsters?"
"Yeah." Alex gritted his teeth, answering Firia's question. He didn't forget to check around the area with his Spirit Eyes, not finding any suspicious energy around. "I think it's safe to break through here… I need to adjust that power and cultivate a little bit more before I can trigger Lightning Tribulation."
"I think the moment you adjust that power, the Spiritual Energy around you will naturally get sucked inside your body, increasing your cultivation at an alarming rate. Luckily, this is only your consolidation process… It will be dangerous if this is your normal progress because it will surely ruin your foundation, especially if it's not treated soon." Firia nodded.
"There is a bigger area ahead. We should walk there first. Considering this place is linked to the sky and filled with Illusion and Space Element, it can somehow be used as a Special Realm. If I can trigger the Tribulation before the others come in, they won't know my Golden Lightning… Still, I will add another layer of Special Realm as a precaution. That's my limit." Alex sighed.
"Looking at your condition, you are not in the condition to create a Special Realm, no? I will carry you around while you draw symbols around the area. You can then focus on two things, the array and holding back that power." Firia suggested.
Although he was a little bit embarrassed to have Firia carry him, he decided to go along with it since it was indeed the best option he got. "Understood."
Firia then carried him on her back, heading toward the bigger area.
To their surprise, the tower was far beyond their imagination. Golden pillars, a golden floor, a huge chandelier far in the ceiling. Everything looked massive and glamorous, unlike the dark stone tunnel.
Firia and Alex shook their heads as they couldn't get mesmerized by this. They began working on the array together.
…
Meanwhile, the Gods and Goddesses were stupefied when watching how Alex found the entrance and entered the main tower.
"This…" The purple-haired man scratched his head, embarrassed. "I have certainly made some precaution in the test… But I have never expected to have a Space Element user to come to this place… So, embarrassing."
"Indeed. I don't know whether this is good news or bad news. On one hand, I can certainly say that they are the strongest candidates out there. On the other hand, having cheated their way here is really not a pleasant thing to see."
"How can you say that? They didn't cheat their way here. I will say they are smarter than anyone else."
A few Gods started favoring Alex's intelligence and the bond that he shared with Firia, while some had a more traditional way of thinking. Nonetheless, they still had another problem.
"Looking at the other candidates, they will only appear here in another week at the earliest, so what are we going with the two? Do any of you want to greet him?"
"Wait a minute. We shouldn't meet him first."
"Why?"
"He is currently cultivating, trying to advance to Martial Saint. By the looks of it, the outside people manage to clear the thirtieth floor before this place open, so there is so much residual energy filling this place. In addition, just look at how these two people killed so many monsters within three days, increasing the energy even further."
"I see. I don't know whether this is a blessing in disguise or not, but I absolutely sure it is for the other candidates. I think that the people outside will feel the increase and will have a breakthrough outside. The only problem is those who will undergo their Lightning Tribulation."
The purple-haired guy smirked. "This place has been covered by my Special Realm, so I can still channel the energy from within to let the world send its Lightning Tribulation. Besides, the tower was built by Divine Materials. He shouldn't be able to destroy it."
"Now that I think about it… It's indeed as you say. We can rest assured then. And who is going to guide him here after he finishes his Lightning Tribulation?"
"I will be the one." The purple-haired one raised his hand. "I am going to make a deal with him, so I will be the one who greets him. I will bring him here first to meet you guys, so one of you can explain a little bit about this tower. After that, I will bring him to that realm to kill those monsters."
"Alright. Since this is the case, we can only wait then."
"Yeah."
…
The Gods and Goddesses kept watching Alex from behind the scene, wondering what kind of stunt Alex would make next.
On the other hand, Alex was having his peaceful time, cultivating without any care in the world. Firia observed his condition, especially concerning the power of quenching.
'Hmm? The will inside that power has gone, leaving only the pure power from that… There should be no danger to him. As soon as he controls the remaining energy, the Spiritual Energy that has been absorbed together with that energy, he will probably trigger the Lightning Tribulation soon.' Firia squinted her eyes.
She started looking around the entire tower. There were not many decorations despite having this grand tower. She thought, 'There is no suspicious aura at the moment. Even this Divine Blazing Shawl doesn't notice anything in its surroundings, so I assume nothing is wrong with this tower. The problem is Alex's Golden Lightning Tribulation. I wonder whether someone is watching us this whole time and will make his appearance when he/she sees Alex's Tribulation.
'No… What I am worried about is that will inside the power of quenching. I have never seen anything like that, and even Master said it was impossible to do it unless someone had a certain intention. I decided to stay silent since Alex could burn that will. However, there is a possibility of someone having some intentions toward the people here…
'Still, there is a possibility… Hmm, this world has closed its gate and limited its cultivation to 10-Star Martial Saint. Considering it is only a soul, its strength will have deteriorated even further, especially after the passing time. In other words, Leoz should be able to fight it with his True Spirit Body. And in the worst case, the others can join the fight, and I will destroy the soul with my Divine Blazing Shawl.'
Firia closed her eyes, wondering if she was careful enough in handling this.
'Sister Xingzhi. Is this alright?'
[I don't know. The reward in this place must be great, considering this place is where many Gods and Goddesses died. If something happens, I will try my best to help you…Or send some help there. If there is a big problem where Alex might die, I won't hesitate to send the army and enter that place even if I need to destroy this world.]
'I see… Although it's not according to the plan, I think this is necessary. After all, it's hard to get information about worlds that have many God Rank Experts.'
[Yes. Even Nelson, the number one spy in our place, has trouble with this type of world because of various reasons. That's why I want to make him learn about the danger he will face upon entering God Rank Expert. After all, the future battles are not between influences anymore, but worlds. A certain mistake might destroy our Eulja, the home for billions of Spirits.]
'I understand that part. As much as I don't want to fight, Previous Life Alex had so many enemies, and they might bite us before Alex reaches that stage. Should we hide him inside Eulja?'
[No. I don't think he will like it. Besides, I plan to travel to many worlds. Not only to search the other materials for his Undying Fire Body, but also for him to get stronger secretly. Of course, I won't be accompanying him all the time because our enemies might suspect something.]
'Fair enough. With so many worlds around us, we might stumble upon a priceless treasure there.'
[Yeah. I am planning to have you and Alicia to get stronger as soon as possible.]
'I won't—!" Before she finished her words, she noticed the fluctuation of Spiritual Energy coming from Alex.
[The Lightning Tribulation is coming. He should be fine, so your task is to watch out for any enemies sneaking around you. I will be out and watch from here and ask Zask to stand by.]
'I understand.' Firia nodded as her expression turned serious.
Meanwhile, Alex finally finished the consolidation process and couldn't help but admire how powerful the power of quenching was. Although it might be because of how dense the Spiritual Energy is, letting him cultivate at speed beyond his imagination, he still couldn't ignore the fact that these few months of tedious process reduced into one day.
Alex checked his body, finding no problem in his body and cultivation. "Although the power remains in my body, I have erased the will from earlier. I don't know whose will that is, but that person won't be able to do anything using that power. I will try to research this Yaentai Quaon. It should be somewhere inside the ridiculous amount of knowledge in my mind. This can wait since the Lightning Tribulation is my current problem. Now that I have a clear mind for this, I start thinking that this Special Realm won't be enough to mask the aura of my Golden Lightning…"
"Should I try to go around and create another layer? But I have triggered the Tribulation. The only way to do it is to make it while facing the Tribulation." Alex thought for a moment and decided to do it for his safety.
*Rumble Rumble!*
The rumbling sound of the lightning reverberated in his ears as he looked upward. Despite him being inside a tower, the ceiling suddenly turned into a cloud as if it was already there all along.
"This…" Alex frowned. "This is the first time I undergo my Lightning Tribulation inside a building. From the technical aspect, It's still possible to undergo Lightning Tribulation underground or underwater. The world will still send the Lightning Tribulation. However, if it's inside a building, he/she needs to go out because the Lightning Tribulation is in the sky.
"Fortunately, this tower reaches the sky here, or it's equivalent to this cave's ceiling. That's why the ceiling becomes the sky right now… The only problem is whether the tower can withstand the shock wave later." Alex looked around and sighed. "I hope I can make another layer of Special Realm after this."
Alex took his Spiritual Weapons and channeled his Spiritual Energy. "I hope you two are ready to fight with me."
As if they were responding to Alex, they released their Spiritual Energy to the surroundings and enhanced Alex's fire.
Alex smiled and nodded. He glanced at Firia, signaling he would start at any moment.
"Go do it. I will protect you," Firia said softly.
Alex nodded again and looked up. The clouds started gathering above his head. Because the space was pretty small, the cloud created another layer, just to stuff the remaining cloud. However, Alex saw no change in the Spiritual Energy, making him think it was fine.
One thing that he found odd. The energy from this cloud was higher than Firia indeed, but it was less than two times. He thought it would be like three times or higher according to his memory. It seemed the lady luck had come to him for this Lightning Tribulation.
He smiled and raised his weapon, stating. "Come!"
"It's right here." As soon as he reached above the entrance, he immediately struck the ground as hard as possible, destroying the ground and entering the tunnel.
Knowing that Alex was on the verge of a breakthrough, she immediately helped him floating as they descended to the ground gently.
