Ch. 1791..1800
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1791
Whitey on Alex’s shoulder immediately charge over and was about to slam Conny’s soul to death.
Alex was not exactly sure what level of demon Whitey was, but judging from the acquired memory scenes previously, it was definitely not some ordinary demon. It was the goddess Rinwell Mathis’s partner. As a result, the people whom it killed would have their souls vanish right away.
However, Alex wanted him to be alive so he could ask some things. Hence, he immediately stopped it.
He casually summoned Maiko and let her deal with Conny’s soul. Conny’s cultivation level was not high, and he was the weakest among the three people. He was a Beginner-Nascent Soul cultivator. That was why Alex managed to kill him with a sword blow. As for dealing with his soul, Maiko Chiba, who was the ghost king, was more than enough.
Soon, Maiko locked up Conny’s soul securely so that he would not stand a chance to escape.
“Maiko, don’t kill him. Ask about his origin and the whole story of this incident,” urged Alex.
“Yes, Master!”
Meanwhile, when Brittany saw the three corpses lying on the ground, her expression darkened as she asked Alex, “Alex, who are these three people?”
Alex said, “It’s a long story, Mom. I’ll tell you later. Where did you people go just now?”
Maya said, “We went to a banquet. It’s quite formal so it wasn’t convenient to bring Whitey along with us.”
Alex nodded his head. He was still worried about Dorothy, so he immediately let go of Waltz and said, “I’ll go look for Dorothy. You people don’t leave Whitey at all times since now it’s critical moment.”
He turned around and left, jumping on his flying sword.
Brittany said, “Alex, what happened to Dorothy?”
Alex said, “She’s being hunted by two Nascent Soul experts and I’m a bit worried.”
As he spoke, he flew toward the overseas island. Brittany was dumbfounded. She knew very clearly what Nascent Soul experts were. Being hunted by two Nascent Soul experts, there would be definitely no chance of survival for Dorothy!
However, through her son’s speaking tone, it seemed like…
Among the few people, only Waltz knew about Dorothy’s true identity, but Dorothy had warned Waltz to not expose any information about her. So, Waltz could only force herself to endure it.
However, shortly after Alex left, a shadow swept through the air.
Everyone reacted vigilantly, even Whitey became fiercely large, revealing its armor and making a combat stance. However, it was Dorothy at a closer look.
She was still carrying Claire.
When Dorothy saw the corpses on the ground at a glance, her pupils suddenly shrank. Immediately after landing, she asked, “Morn, where is Alex?”
Brittany was confused.
‘Is that Dorothy?’
‘How does she know how to fly?’
Waltz said, “He went to look for you saying that you were in danger.”
When Dorothy heard that, the burden in her heart was finally relieved. She let out a breath of relief as well.
Waltz asked, “What happened?”
Dorothy shook her head. “I wasn’t sure either. Alex probably provoked some powerful people at Flying Eagle Academy. The people who came were very powerful, and we almost died.”
Brittany looked at Dorothy confusingly and asked, “Dorothy, how come I never know that your… Your cultivation level is so high.”
At this point, Dorothy knew that she could no longer hide it and there was no need to hide it either. She said, “Mom, I actually have another identity and I’ve met you with that identity before.”
“Huh? Who?” Brittany was even more confused.
Waltz could not hold it back anymore. “Mom, she’s Aunt Rockefeller.”
In that instant, Brittany and Maya both had an astonished expression on their faces.
***
Meanwhile, Maiko was almost done with torturing Conny. A Nascent Soul soul, not long after death, had little resistance when facing the ghost king. The ghost king certainly had ways to make him feel worse than death. And then, he gave away all the information.
“Madame…”
Maiko told Brittany all of the information that she had acquired. There was a long list of names that contained over a hundred people altogether.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1792
Even someone like Hailey, who was not blood related to Alex, was on the list. Clearly, the Lawrence family was deranged.
“Let’s visit the Carter family!”
The group of people immediately went to look for Hailey.
Fortunately, Spencer’s order was to have two groups of people act separately and make a move on the Assexes and the Rockefellers first. It turned out that this choice saved everyone else’s lives. The two groups were wiped out without killing anyone.
Meanwhile, Alex went to the island at breakneck speed, only to find out that Dorothy did not make it to the island. Alex was distressed. ‘She couldn’t have gotten into some accident halfway, right?’
Afterwards, Alex immediately turned back and headed to Assex Villa.
On the other hand, the group of eight beauties also followed Alex. However, Alex was really fast and the eight women were much slower than him. They had not reached the level of achieving Imperial Flight, so they could only walk on the sea.
However, the scene was extremely shocking.
Soon, Alex returned to Assex Villa. He did not see Dorothy but he saw Beatrice crying while crazily digging the stones in the ruins, with both her hands covered in blood. The people around tried to stop her but to no avail.
“Beatrice!”
Alex stood behind Beatrice and patted her on the shoulder.
However, she did not seem to have any changes.
Alex saw her bones were coming out, so he quickly picked her up. Beatrice yelled until she finally noticed Alex, she was stunned. She hugged him and cried out loudly. “Brother-in-law! I thought… I thought you were crushed underneath.”
“It’s fine now, everything is fine now!”
“No one is in here.”
After scanning with his divine consciousness, he saw his phone underneath. Only then did he understand why Beatrice was digging crazily. ‘Sigh’, he sighed. Alex had always known about the little brat’s feelings for him.
Sadly, the two of them were impossible.
Boom!
He waved his hand and lifted a large area of waste rock off the ground. Many of the surrounding onlookers were stunned by this inhuman means of his. Especially the female neighbour who stayed next to the Assexes. She knew about Alex. In the past, Claire had scolded this guy for being useless trash and an ungrateful man more than once. Afterwards, when Dorothy got a divorce, she even bought a box of fireworks and put it outside their house.
In the end?
Eventually, her younger daughter, who thought he was crushed underneath the ruins, kept digging with her life until her finger bones could be seen. Now, she hugged her brother-in-law so tightly as if she was hugging the whole world. Surprisingly, this useless son-in-law had such ability…
Was everything just a dream?
Alex grabbed his phone from the piles of ruins.
Fortunately, when the villa collapsed, this phone fell into a crack. Not only did the casing not break, but it could still be used.
He found Dorothy’s phone as well.
“Let’s go and look for your sister!”
After that, Alex carried Beatrice and flashed out of the scene. At this moment, the phone rang. It was from Waltz. “Senior, Dorothy is at home. Where are you?”
Alex let out a breath of relief. “I’ll be right there.”
***
At Rockefeller Manor, Alex was speechless for a long time after seeing the long name list. The Lawrences simply had little regard for human lives.
Among the people present, only Claire continued to be in a coma.
Brittany asked, “Alex, what do you say?”
Alex said, “Colton Lawrence is the commander of the Left-wing Troop of the Flying Eagles squadron. He’s not a nice guy and he wants to snatch away Jade Benmore’s position. And, I became Jade’s disciple by mistake…”
He explained everything.
For a moment, everyone fell into deep silence. The pressure was too great.
Dorothy said, “The most urgent task right now is Lord Queen who’s waiting in the unfinished building. How are we supposed to deal with him?”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1793
Alex said, “Spencer Queen has arranged six subordinates but all six of them are dead now. He’ll definitely come looking for us if he fails to receive any news or reach Spencer. The time may be just a few minutes afterwards, so…”
Dorothy immediately said, “Let’s leave this place first.”
Once they thought about this, the group of people left, who had no hesitation, stood up and left without packing anything. Furthermore, they immediately contacted the important people on the namelist and asked them to temporarily leave their permanent address and hide somewhere else for a while.
Forgot about those Rockefellers. Ever since Natalie’s death, the whereabouts of Noah and his family was unknown. If Spencer could find them, it could only be said that it would be their destiny and nobody should be blamed for it.
Then, there was Claire’s family as well as Geronimo’s family. Alex felt that many people on the rest of the list were quite absurd. He probably never saw these people before or they were not even related in any manner. However, this was indeed a way to eliminate all his kin!
Colton’s ruthlessness was beyond imagination.
This also meant that Colton would definitely not give up nor let him off the hook. The upcoming battle would be a life and death matter.
Soon, the eight women, who rushed over from the deserted island, arrived as well. When the eight of them saw Dorothy, they respectfully addressed her as ‘master’.
Beatrice was dumbfounded.
She blinked her eyes with a look of disbelief. Why did her older sister whom she had been living with all the years suddenly felt so strange to her?
‘Was she really her sister? Or, was she someone who looked like her sister?’
She suddenly did not dare to speak to her sister. Instead, she pulled Alex and asked, “Brother-in-law, is she really my sister? How could my sister be…”
Alex replied, “Of course, she’s your sister. But something happened and we didn’t tell you people earlier because we’re afraid that you all might not be able to take it. After all of this, I’ll tell you everything. Don’t worry, we’ll be fine.”
He paused for a moment and asked concernedly, “How’s your hand?”
Beatrice replied, “Very painful.”
Alex said with a nod, “Let me take care of it.”
Activating the twelve ancient runes in the Force, he channeled the kind of spiritual power, which had powerful effects in repairing and healing injury, into Beatrice’s wound. After that, he used the Zharvakko talisman to heal her rapidly. The severely damaged fingers healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, until the injury was completely invisible.
Beatrice was dumbfounded as she watched it.
She now understood that Alex was definitely not an ordinary martial artist, but an even more powerful and amazing big shot. She thought about how she used to humiliate him with words and call him useless trash behind his back It was so ridiculous that he did not say a word nor rebut her at that time. He did not care to rebut her, right?
At this time, Dorothy came over and pulled Alex away. “We need to discuss.”
Under the crowd’s eyes, the two people leaped up from the original spot, soaring a hundred meters above the ground.
Hovering in mid-air. Alex summoned the Sword of the Universe. The two people stood on the Sword of the Universe and had a private discussion.
“Spencer Queen must die!”
“The Lawrences must be annihilated too!”
Dorothy said solemnly. Her eyes were full of determination and seriousness.
Alex nodded his head. “I killed Colton’s younger son previously and now his elder son is also under my mental hypnosis. Colton is going to annihilate my family. This is a dead or alive situation. More importantly, Spencer is a Peak-Spirit Severing expert. With both our abilities, we’re really no match for him. We’ll probably end up as ghosts under his sword at first sight.”
Until here, he suddenly remembered about Whitey. He immediately brought Whitey up and asked if it could manage a Spirit Severing expert.
But unfortunately, Whitey shook its head and pointed at its chest with its front paw.
Sadly, it did not know how to speak.
Not knowing the actual situation, the two people could only sigh in disappointment.
At this time, Dorothy’s eyes brightened as she said, “I know a place where we might be able to fight him.”
Alex asked, “Where is it?”
“A secret realm. There’s a powerful spell formation in the force field inside. It’s the place that I’ve mentioned to you before. I’ve been there before but I couldn’t go in too deep. You’re better than me in the studies of formation. If we could borrow the power of spell formations and lure that person into it, then we’d have more certainty.”
Alex clapped in agreement when he heard that.
“First, we should get a boat and let the eight fair maidens escort the crowd to the deserted island for a while. They can come out again once the danger has been eliminated.”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1794
“Honey, how’s your stomach? I’ll handle the task to bait him to the secret realm,” said Alex.
Dorothy refused to agree this time. She took his hand and said, “I already regret it when you lured that Profound Mystic woman away alone previously. Now, I absolutely can’t let you face the danger alone. Besides… I have a trump card too. I have the Reincarnation Stone. In critical moments, I can borrow the power of the Reincarnation Stone.”
Alex now knew very clearly what the Reincarnation Stone was. Everytime Dorothy used the Reincarnation Stone, the consciousness of the soul inside would be one step closer to awakening. Once it reached a certain point, then it would break out of the stone. When the time came, it would be really dangerous!
“You really don’t have to. Let me tell you something…” Alex whispered something into Dorothy’s ear.
Dorothy was dumbfounded all of a sudden. She looked at him strangely, but eventually, she nodded her head. “Alright then… I’ll listen to you.”
The two couples immediately concluded that.
Afterwards, the eight fair maidens escorted the crowd to the deserted island with a yacht. That was currently the safest place that was away from surveillance… The Flying Eagles squadron had a high level of access to city surveillance. This was why Margaret was able to lock down the members of the Rockefeller family within half a day.
***
In the blink of an eye, it was already eleven o’clock.
In the unfinished building, Spencer was sitting alone on a master chair with an expensive coffee table next to him.
On top of the coffee table was a bottle of White Cloud Fairy Wine. This was a kind of spiritual wine of the Mountain Warriors. The brewing ingredients were very rare. All of them were spiritual herbs. Not only did the drank wine taste good, but it could also prolong life and enhance cultivation.
A bottle cost thirty million dollars, and it usually could not be bought with money.
Spencer was a person that knew how to enjoy life.
What was the purpose of cultivating so hard? Wasn’t it for the sake of making a name for oneself? Why did he fight so hard on the battlefield? That’s for making a name for himself.
And, what was the purpose of making a name for himself?
Wasn’t it to enjoy life?
It was to enjoy the beautiful women, the beautiful things, and the wine that others could not enjoy. It was to enjoy the rights that the other did not possess.
As for the others’ deaths, he did not care about them at all. So, he did not care about the annihilation as well. He only knew that he had to help Colton, so that when Colton became the Flying Eagles commander, the position of the Left-wing Lieutenant would most likely fall on his shoulders.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
At this moment, the phone on top of the coffee table rang. The caller was none other than Colton’s wife, Petunia. She sounded angry and it was not pleasant at all. “Spencer, have you captured all of those mongrels? I can’t wait any longer! Michael had another attack just now and I couldn’t stand it anymore!”
This time, Michael directly broke that thing of his.
How could Petunia not be mad?
Spencer said, “Sister-in-law, don’t worry. I’ll bring the people back by tonight.”
“Alright!”
After hanging up the phone, Spencer gave Margaret a call.
It did not go through!
He called Fenderson, but it still did not go through!
After that, he called everyone, but they all did not go through.
‘What’s happening?’
‘Why can’t I contact any of them? They should be sending in a batch by this time!’
At this moment, something was thrown into the unfinished building from the outside mid-air. It rolled on the ground with a grunt and fell right in front of Spencer.
At a glance, it was a human head.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1795
’Conny?’
As Spencer saw the head by his leg, his eyes shrank. Clearly, the thing that he worried about had happened. He could not get through everyone’s phone and now Conny’s head was thrown next to him. This meant that they all died, right?
Who had such ability?
It could not be that Jade had come back, right?
As he sat on the master chair, the train of thoughts flashed his mind. His eyes were already looking toward the outside.
At this time, a person walked out of the darkness, it was Alex.
He was alone.
“Alex Rockefeller, it’s you?!”
When Spencer saw Alex, he seemed to understand everything because Alex and the Fairy doctor were hooked up. The Fairy Doctor was a Spirit Severing expert who ranked third on the Flying Eagle Academy instructor combat leaderboard. She was a formidable figure second only to the two principals.
It was no wonder that none of the people whom he sent out came back.
However, seeing that Alex had returned to California, Spencer’s jittery mood earlier instantly calmed down. As long as Jade had not come back, he was not afraid of anything.
Alex said, “You’re Spencer Queen?”
On the other hand, Spencer asked, “Did you kill all my people?”
Alex nodded. “If you only have six subordinates.”
“So, you’re here to kill me?”
“I just want to talk to you!”
“Oh?”
Spencer looked at him with some interest. “Aren’t you afraid that I will kill you? Let me tell you something you don’t like to hear. If it weren‘t for Jade and the Fairy Doctor, you would have died ten thousand times. You’re not even an ant in my eyes.”
Alex said, “Then are you considered an ant in Colton Lawrence’s eyes? Do you want to take over Colton’s current place?”
When Spencer heard him, he looked at Alex for a good ten seconds before smiling. “You’re really interesting. What gives you the confidence to say such things? By virtue of you being Jade Benmore’s disciple? But I can tell you responsibly that your master will never come back.”
Alex was startled, “She’s dead?”
Spencer nodded his head.
Alex said in surprise, “How did she die?”
Spencer‘s divine sense that covered a few kilometers did not detect the aura of other powerful people at all, so he did not fear that Alex would run away. He picked up the wine bottle on the coffee table, took a sip, and then said, “Your master went into Myriad Demon Valley. That is a gathering place of demonic beasts. Even if Jade Benmore has supreme abilities, it is difficult for her to turn around the situation! Tell me, without Jade Benmore, what makes you say that kind of thing? On the account that you‘re the Fairy Doctor’s sugarbaby?”
Alex was shocked.
Jade was a Five-star Warlord, yet she was dead.
Without Jade, the greatest commander of the Flying Eagle squadron, wouldn’t the ancient force field be broken at an even faster pace?
As for Jade’s death, Alex did not have much emotions on it. She was just a cheap master and he was forced anyway.
Alex said, “You think I need the help of a woman to help you get the position as the Left-Wing’s Lieutenant? Since Jade is dead now, the Flying Eagles squadron have lost a Five-star Warlord. Have you thought of taking over Jade‘s place?”
“Jade’s position?”
Spencer was startled when he heard that. How could he not think about that?
He was a megalomaniac. Jade’s position that had reached the pinnacle was what he had always dreamed of. It fascinated him even more than being the Chief of America. But… To replace Colton and become the new commander of the Flying Eagles, was it possible?
Alex looked at Spencer and knew he was moved.
But… Spencer sneered and said, “Your master died but you don’t seem sad at all, huh?”
Alex shrugged his shoulders. “You probably don’t know why Jade took me as her disciple, right? Jade’s cultivation style is different from others. She couldn’t teach me anything at all, and she only did that because I’ve healed her leg.”
“What?”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1796
Spencer Queen was finally emotionally moved.
Jade Benmore’ s poisoned leg from the bite was initially Colton’s plan in which Spencer was also involved in it. How could he not know? As a result, the expected result of Jade losing her leg hadn’t happened, but a certain miracle doctor had cured her instead. That was completely out of their expectations! They searched long and hard, but they couldn’t find the identity of this miracle doctor. Never did he expect that it would be Alex.
Meanwhile, Alex threw out a heavy temptation. “Heavenly King Spencer, do you know about the Heavenly Law Pill?”
When Spencer heard that, he stood up abruptly.
The aura in his body also leaked out uncontrollably for an instant. Under Alex’s Divine Eye and Third Eye, his heart raced wildly. Just now, judging from Spencer’s sudden aura burst, his strength didn’t seem to be as simple as just at Spirit Severing.
‘Perhaps, it was a level higher than Spirit Severing? Didn’t that mean he was a master at Tribulation Crossing realm?’
On the other hand, the Heavenly Law Pill was the most critical pill in order for a Tribulation Crossing master to break through the Void Shattering in order to advance into an immortal.
It was no wonder Spencer’s reaction was so big.
“You have a Heavenly Law Pill?” Spencer said with his bright eyes.
“No.” Alex shook his head.
Spencer’s face changed. Just when he was just about to tell Alex off for fooling around with him, Alex continued calmly, “But, I know how to concoct a Heavenly Law Pill!”
“What? You can concoct a Heavenly Law Pill?”
This time, Spencer’s reaction was even bigger than before. “What are you bragging about?”
Alex smiled and said, “You should have heard about my win over the Fairy Doctor in the alchemy battle at Flying Eagles Academy, right? Though I said that I cheated later on, it’s obvious that those with discerning eyes could tell that I didn’t cheat at all! So, if you can help me collect all the materials, I can completely help you concoct a Heavenly Law Pill. Otherwise, why would Jade take me as her disciple?”
Spencer’s eyes flickered. He fell for the temptation.
He summarized all the information he had about Alex and went through it in his mind, only to find that maybe the guy was telling the truth, he might really be able to concoct a Heavenly Law Pill.
It just so happened that Spencer knew all the materials needed for the Heavenly Law Pill.
He immediately asked, “Do you know which materials are needed to concoct the Heavenly Law Pill?”
Alex replied, “Of course. The first is the heavenly law fruit, then there’s stephania vine, sun fire spirit leaf, iced Ganoderma, green dragon wood, blood crystal grass… Do I need to go on? There’s seventy-six kinds of ingredients in total!”
“What conditions do you have?” Spencer asked.
Alex smiled. “Destroy the Lawrence family!”
Spencer abruptly made a move by violently grabbing toward Alex.
“If I catch you now, wouldn’t that be more direct?” Spencer was fast
At this moment, the strength that he lashed out was completely not at the caliber of a Spirit Severing expert. This guy was really a Tribulation Crossing expert who had been hiding his strength!
“D*mn!”
Alex didn’t seem to have the power to resist Spencer’s sudden movement. He watched as Spencer’s hand came closer, grabbing his neck!
Crack!
In the end, Spencer exerted a force, causing Alex’s neck to be… Broken right away!
Spencer’s heart skipped a beat as he was a little dumbfounded. How could he have broken Alex’s neck so easily? This guy was just too weak, right? Had Spencer just lost his chance to obtain a Heavenly Law Pill just like that?
The next instant, he saw the Alex in front of him suddenly shrink and become smaller, like a deflated ball. Finally, he became a thin piece of paper.
It was actually a paper doll!
“Paper doll puppet!”
Spencer threw away the paper doll violently. The next moment, he released his divine consciousness and locked onto a person who was floating in the air one kilometer away. The person was the real Alex.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1797
There were many mystic arts in the Ultimate Book of Medicine.
As Alex’s cultivation level rose, some mystic arts within it would be unlocked one by one. They were all the same just like the previous Mystic Armor and the Ancient Forbidden Spell of the Twelve Runes later.
On the other hand, the Paper Doll Puppet was an unlocked technique in the Ultimate Book of Medicine after Alex’s cultivation level had reached the Core Formation.
The full name of the technique was called ‘Paper Doll Curse of Three Realms’. The Paper Doll Puppet was only one of the applications within the Paper Doll Curse of Three Realms.
Alex had only learned this paper doll mystic art at the eleventh hour because he was about to face an expert who was many times stronger than himself. It needed to be applied together with ancient runes to exert its miraculous effects. Fortunately, Alex had learned the more profound usage of the runes in the Star Formation Board. Otherwise, Spencer would have seen through this Paper Doll Puppet.
Whoosh!
The paper doll that had been killed by Spencer burst into flames in that instant.
In the next moment, only ashes were left. At the same time, Spencer gave a cold snort.
He stamped his feet heavily on the ground. He was currently on the fifth floor of an incomplete building, and there was a platform without a balcony in front of him. The entire building crumbled into dust when he stomped his feet.
‘Alex Rockefeller, I didn’t expect you to know a puppet technique like this. But, did you think a mere Core Formation cultivator like you would be able to escape from the palm of a Tribulation Crossing expert? You’re too naive. I’ll show you what it truly means to be a Tribulation Crossing expert!’
His body rose into the air and turned into a blood-colored stream of light, chasing in Alex’s direction. Alex didn’t dare to linger at all. He initially planned to say some pleasantries, but Spencer was truly terrifying.
He turned out to be a Tribulation Crossing expert who was just a level away from breaking through the Void Shattering and becoming an immortal! If he were to confront him, just a single touch would have disintegrated his soul!
“Three Realms Decree, heed my words, little demon. Go!”
Alex grabbed a bunch of paper dolls, bit the tip of his tongue and sprayed a mouthful of blood on them.
The paper dolls flew out of his hands and immediately changed into spiritual creatures.
They originally had the size of his palm, but they instantly turned into warriors that were taller than an average human and abruptly approached the rushing Spencer.
Then, without turning to look back, Alex activated the Imperial Sword Flight and fled to the southeast.
Boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom!
Alex’s paper doll puppets weren’t able to hold off Spencer for very long.
Effortlessly, be destroyed all the thirty or so paper doll puppets in just a short three seconds. However, for a cultivator, three seconds was still a very long process, long enough to kill quite a few people.
With just three seconds, the distance between Alex and Spencer was increased by nearly ten kilometers. However, Spencer had already locked onto Alex with his divine consciousness.
He had placed a mental imprint on Alex. With the help of this imprint, Spencer could easily perceive Alex’s direction and location so that he wouldn’t lose track of him.
On the other hand, Neela immediately sensed the mental imprint and told Alex right away, “My lord, he has left a soul imprint in you to lock onto your location. You won’t be able to escape his tracking unless you enter some kind of realm that can isolate your mental state. Otherwise, he’ll be able to find you easily. I can devour this soul imprint.”
Alex was taken aback. “Devour it? What does that mean? You’re going to eat it?”
Neela replied, “Yes, the soul imprint is actually a form of soul power. I can devour it, it’s a snack for me.”
Alex was speechless. As expected, a Benares Dragon was indeed extraordinary.
However, Spencer’s soul imprint was exactly what he wanted right now. Alex wanted to lure Spencer to enter the secret realm with him. Having him to follow Alex was a good thing. Once they reached the secret realm and into the spell formation, it would not be too late to devour the soul imprint by then.
Alex’s initial plan was to sow discord and have Spencer and the Lawrence family quarrel and fight to the death among themselves. Never did he expect that Spencer would be more difficult to handle than he thought, and that didn’t work out.
And so, he refused Neela’s suggestion.
When he turned his head to look back, he saw Spencer had already caught up to him. The distance was at most three kilometers away.
Swoosh!
Alex threw out another paper doll.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1798
When the paper doll hit the air, it transformed into a giant beast that was sixty-five feet tall! It stepped onto a cloud and spat black fire with an imposing aura before ferociously rushing towards Spencer!
In Spencer’s mind, he knew that it was possible that it was just an illusion. It was impossible for it to be real. However, the giant beast’s aura was overbearing, because the applied ancient runes on it had drawn the spiritual energy from its surroundings and even stirred up the power of the rules, making it look like a real one. When the overwhelming pressure came down on his
head, an instinctive fear coursed through Spencer as he hurriedly dodged to the side.
However, this was really just an illusion. The illusion broke when it fell to the ground.
When Spencer found out that he had been fooled, the anger in his heart even rose further.
He had been played by an ant-like existence. How shameful!
‘Chase!’
But at this moment, Alex had given up the Imperial Sword Flight. Instead, he rushed towards the ground and stowed away the Dragon Bone Sword mid-air. Just a she was about to land on the ground, a white cat jumped up. The moment it transformed into a giant cat demon with the armor covering its body, it caught the descending Alex in the air just in time.
Then, it turned into a streak of white light on the ground, running forward like lightning.
‘A monster?’
‘A pet?’
As Spencer watched the distant Alex and Whitey, the searing heat in his eyes intensified.
Alex’s endless methods up his sleeves even aroused Spencer’s greed and strengthened his belief that he had to get his hands on Alex for his own use. If such a talented person couldn’t be in his control, then he had to be destroyed.
Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two moved in tandem, like supreme ghosts in the dark night.
Whitey was much faster than Alex’s Imperial Sword Flight. In addition, Alex had long planted two ancient runes on Whitey’s body for speed enhancement, so it ran all the way like a meteor coming down from the sky.
Occasionally when they passed by occupied places, bursts of screams would ring out.
They couldn’t see clearly that it was just a white cat passing by. However, the rapid vibration of the airflow was incomparably huge, just like the dull ‘boom’ sounds one would often hear from the windows nowadays due to the sonic boom when a supersonic aircraft flew in the sky at an astounding speed.
On the other hand, Whitey’s speed had broken the sound barrier. Furthermore, it was at close range.
The glass windows of the houses along the roads shattered continuously, and the people at the side were tossed back by the air currents… It was fortunate that Whitey had been careful along the road and tried to avoid the crowds. Otherwise, the sonic boom would have directly shattered the eardrums of those people if they had gotten too close.
They had been running for half an hour.
Finally Alex found a big lake, following the address that Dorothy had given him. And, he soon saw Dorothy, who was waiting for him on the edge of the big lake.
“Hubby, over here!”
At this moment, Dorothy was wearing sportswear and holding the Fiery Phoenix Bow in her hands. When she saw Spencer who was in hot pursuit behind Alex from a distance, she immediately grabbed a golden spirit arrow and nocked it in her bow.
Whoosh!
The Fiery Phoenix arrow turned into a phoenix with an unrelenting killing intent, shooting out towards Spencer. After Dorothy shot the arrow, she immediately shouted at Alex, “Follow rue!”
She turned around and jumped into the lake right away.
Alex didn’t hesitate at all. He dived into the lake with Whitey to follow after Dorothy, sinking down into the water quickly.
Spencer avoided the Fiery Phoenix arrow and stood by the lake, but he was stunned for a moment.
‘Isn’t this the Galileo Dungeon below?’
“Hmph, this guy, seriously. Instead of taking the way out given to him, he’d rather dive right into the depths of hell!”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1799
Spencer had already disclosed the Galileo Dungeon to Flying Eagles Academy through others. The people over there would have been working on how to go in and study the secrets within it.
However, it was not so soon. At the very least, they would first send a scouting team to explore the inside. Once those people encountered the spell formations in it, they would come out and ask for the help from the Formation Department.
However, Alex had made his appearance.
Spencer originally thought that the previous arrangements had been all for naught, but he didn’t expect that this guy personally would come out here. More importantly, how did Alex find out about this place?
‘Did the Fairy Doctor tell him? That was great! There were a few masters from the Left-wing Troop waiting idly for opportunities inside!’
Spencer sneered, then followed after them. The way he fell into the water was much more domineering. As he entered the lake, the water in front was automatically separated, forming a downward path that was suspended in the air for him.
He stepped on the water, going down into the lake as though he was walking on a slope.

“What..? What is this place?”
Alex was stunned for a moment as he looked at the huge building at the bottom of the lake. He didn‘t know what lake it was in the first place. Anyway, it was particularly deep and it was already late at night too.
After reaching the bottom of the lake, it was really pitch-black. Even though he was a Core Formation expert, he could only roughly make out the outlines in the darkness.
At this time, Dorothy flicked her fingers. A small flame ignited at her fingertips. This kind of flame was very special. Even if it was lit up in the water, it could be safe and sound too. It illuminated the building in front of them.
As Alex fixed his gaze on it, he was a little surprised. It looked like a certain ancient temple or monastery. Furthermore, the size of the building was huge. There were various community buildings that were clearly separated, and they were also preserved in a perfect manner.
“How could this temple be built under this kind of lake?” Alex asked.
“I’m not sure about it either. Perhaps it wasn’t a lake before this! ” Dorothy replied. As they talked, they walked closer to it. When they turned around, they found that Spencer had not chased after them.
“That’s strange, why didn’t that guy pursue us?”
Alex had done so many things and went to face off Spencer in person without hesitating to risk his life. It was all to lure him here into the secret realm. If Spencer were to turn back halfway, wouldn’t all the effort be in vain?
“Should Ihave sniped him just now?” Dorothy said regretfully as the arrow she shot just now had revealed her whereabouts.
However, Spencer almost caught up to Alex at that time. It was impossible for Dorothy to do nothing in that situation.
However, at this time, Neela spoke through the mental voice transmission, “He’s here. I can also trace the soul imprint that he has placed on you back to him. Perhaps he thinks that you won’t be able to get away anyway, so he didn’t chase after you so fast.”
A whim struck Alex as he said, “Forget about it, let’s head in before talking anymore. That guy isn’t just a Spirit Severing realm cultivator, but he’s a terrifying Tribulation Crossing realm expert. I used the Heavenly Law Pill to tempt him, hoping that he would turn against his own allies, but I didn’t expect that he would want to catch me instead. Luckily I have made an advanced preparation.”
“Are you alright?” Dorothy asked in concern.
Alex shook his head. “The effect of the Paper Doll Curse is very good indeed.”
Not long after, the two of them arrived at the main gate of the ancient temple.
“Something’s not right!”
“There are people inside this ancient temple!”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 1800
Dorothy was now a Profound Mystic expert. With her strong divine mental powers, she soon discovered that something wasn’t right. She had been to the ancient temple in the lake before. On that previous occasion, there was no one inside or outside the ancient temple. However, now, as they approached the gate, her divine consciousness sensed someone in the vicinity.
At the same time, she also sensed the approaching Spencer.
“Alex Rockefeller!”
Spencer’s voice rang out. He suddenly sped up as he spoke to Alex, “How about we make a deal? Sign a Soul Contract with me for fifty years, or until I reach the Void Shattering stage. Concoct pills earnestly for me during this period, and I won’t treat you poorly! You’ve killed Maxwell Lawrence and taken away two daughter-in-laws of the Lawrences. You’ve even broken Michael Lawrence’s lower part with your hypnosis. The Lawrence family will not let you off the hook until they’ve destroyed all of your family! Besides, Jade Benmore is also dead now. No one can protect you anymore. I am the only one who can help you.”
The moment Spencer said this, Alex blanched and glanced at Dorothy subconsciously.
As expected, her gaze was surprised, annoyed, and angry.
However, it turned into exasperation in the end. Dorothy glared at Alex fiercely. “You provoked other women again?”
Alex scratched his head. “Uh, this… It’s a long story.”
“Then, don’t say anything, I don’t want to know either,” Dorothy said.
“Wifey…”
“Go!”
Once he signed the Soul Contract, his life would no longer belong to him. Only a fool would sign that kind of contract.
The two of them rushed into the temple. On the right side of the entrance, there was a huge stone monument with two silver words ‘Kala Temple’ engraved on it.
Every alphabet gave off a wondrous and mysterious charm. However, since Spencer was catching up to them, Alex didn’t waste too much time looking at it. Once they entered the temple, there was a force field that could isolate the lake water from the outside world.
However, this force field had no other restrictions, so the two of them easily entered the courtyard of Kala Temple. As the pressure on their body lightened, the lake water disappeared around them. The two people had used their spiritual powers to construct a spiritual barrier around them to block out the lake water from soaking them wet. Hence, their clothes and shoes were not wet at this time.
Even Whitey was dry, not a single fur on it was wet.
“Who’s there?” Just then, two people rushed out from Kala Temple.
The moment Alex saw them, he recognized one of them. It was an instructor from Flying Eagles Academy, the sword cultivator that Holly had recently been apprenticed to, Jason Moss. Jason still had a deep impression of Alex. When he caught sight of Alex, he recognized him immediately. “Alex Rockefeller? Why are you here?”
Alex quickly said, “Instructor Moss, the situation is urgent. Someone is chasing after us at the back. Let us in quickly.”
The man beside Jason asked him, “Do you know him?”
“He’s the new disciple that the Fairy Doctor took in,” Jason replied.
“Ah, the guy who cheated during the alchemy battle. What good luck you have! The Fairy Doctor still accepted him as her disciple even though you cheated. You have to thank your lucky stars for that!” Then, after a pause, he continued, “Sigh, you’re a freshman. Who allowed you to come out? And how did you come here?”
Alex turned around and saw that Spencer had entered the temple as well.
He was even more anxious in that instant.
“Instructors, the person who’s chasing us is here, and that person is extremely dangerous. He may even kill you both!” Alex said urgently.
Jason immediately ushered them into the temple’s main entrance.
Meanwhile, the man beside Jason looked at Spencer who was coming over and coldly said, “Relax, this place is under Flying Eagles Academy’s jurisdiction now. Who dares to make trouble here? And you’re a student of our Flying Eagles Academy. Even if he’s bold, he wouldn’t dare to kill you!”
Then, he pulled out his sword and pointed it at Spencer.
“You’re the one who’s bullying our academy’s students? Give me a reason. Otherwise, the consequences won’t be pretty!”
Spencer snorted and said, “Since you’ve seen me, there’s no other way for you but death!”
