Ch. 2061..2070
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2061
Roar!
The black shadows were forced out one by one, and there was a bone dragon beneath each shadow. However, these bone dragons should be the remnant’s wills.
Their attack power was not powerful, and each one only had a mouthful of toxic death mist. It would be fine as long as one could dodge it, but someone was hit by it.
Sky Roc’s body was huge. The toxic death mist spat onto its wings by accident, and half of its wings instantly fell off, causing it to roll all over the ground in pain.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
As the bone dragons continued to be destroyed, the space barrier’s sturdiness weakened as well.
Meanwhile, Nora inside flared up when she saw the situation was not right. The undead creature that possessed Nora abruptly transformed into a monster and enveloped Nora’s entire body, turning into something that was neither human nor beast. It started burning its blood essence and rushing the energy into Alex’s daughter’s body.
Bawl!
The little one cried even louder. The green light became even brighter.
A light pillar spurted into the sky from the inside of the ancient well, shooting toward the ancient, giant door above the sacrificial altar. The living souls clamored and wailed as incantations spread across the sky. The black, giant door started to open up slowly. An earth-shattering roar carried over from the inside.
“The Undead Gate has been opened!”
“Hurry up!”
“Kill!”
By joining forces, Alex and Jade slew the last bone dragon with two divine swords. The space barrier broke in response to the sound.
Whoosh!
Daya, who was the fastest, rushed over to snatch her daughter. However, her body unexpectedly flashed past her daughter. Her hand went past her daughter’s body, yet she did not touch anything substantive.
“What’s going on?”
“Why can’t I touch her? Where’s my daughter?”
Alex and Jade tried too but to no avail as if the little floating one was only an illusory projection while her real body was in a distant place.
Just then, Nora burst into laughter.
At this moment, Nora’s living body had undergone significant changes without her beautiful face, but she had turned into a hideous monster. Nasty mucus was dripping down the skin on her face as if it were a melted candle.
“Death is cast!”
“My great army of the Undying Clan shall return to this land soon!”
“Humans, just you people wait and tremble!”
As if in response to its words, a wild roar from the inside of the ancient, giant door, and a huge head poked out from inside. It was a skull that looked exactly like a human, but it was hundreds of times larger, like a house.
“F*ck!”
Seeing such a thing, everyone was stunned.
Even Aesop from the demon tribe trembled in fear. When Nora saw the skull, she even prostrated on the ground and shouted, “Welcome the king!”
However, the colossal skull did not squeeze out, as if the opened Undead Gate was not large enough. After taking a glance at everyone present, it retreated again.
Jade called out, “We can’t let that thing come out, or else the consequences will be unimaginable.”
Daya said, “But, what should we do?”
Alex yanked Nora up with the Sword of the Universe in his hand, piercing it into her thigh. “Spill, how do we close the gate? How to rescue my daughter?”
“Hahahahaha!” Nora laughed. “After several thousand years of preparation and several thousand years of waiting, the Undead Gate has finally opened again. It’s no use. Once the gate is opened, it’s impossible to be closed again!”
“Ah!” Alex was infuriated. He wanted to kill her with a sword’s slash.
At this moment, Daya said, “The Well of Life! They have used the Goddess of Nature’s divinity in our daughter and this Well of Life to open the passage to the Undying Clan! Our daughter now is equivalent to having become the channel medium between here and the Undying Clan there. It’s stored in the alternate dimension between the virtual and reality.”
Alex hurriedly asked, “What should we do?”
Daya said, “Jump into the well. It’d be the entrance to the alternate dimension!”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2062
Plop!
Alex jumped down right away. Daya followed closely behind him.
Meanwhile, Jade glanced at Nora, who had turned ugly, and sighed deeply. Then, she went over to seal all the meridians in her body before jumping into the Well of Life.
“The well water is bizarre. Why is the life aura so strong?” Alex said, “Could it be that this is the Spring Water of Life?”
Daya said, “That’s right. This is the Spring Water of Life that I mentioned. It can help Holly Yates recover the spiritual meridians in her body.”
Alex nodded. While moving quickly toward the well’s depths, he collected a lot of spring water on the way. “Since they have used our daughter’s divinity and this spring water to open up the passage, won’t the gate stop opening up if we take away all the spring water here?”
Daya said, “This is useless. They used the Well of Life, but not the Spring Water of Life.”
Upon hearing it, Alex dismissed the idea as well. It was essential to save their daughter.
However, as they went deeper into the Well of Life, they felt that it was getting darker and more boundless as if they could not reach the end no matter what.
“Are you sure there’s the passage’s entrance if we continue heading in? Why do I feel it’s getting further away?” Jade at the back wondered aloud.
Behind Jade, half of the demon tribe came in, while the other half stayed outside for safety.
Just then, Alex, who rushed to the front, was suddenly enlightened.
This feeling was like he was still crawling an underground water pipe earlier and had suddenly gone into a vast ocean. There was a vast expanse in front of him. When he glanced over, it was all gray. He could not see it clearly at all.
“What… Is this place?” Aesop at the back asked.
“This is the alternate dimensional space!” Daya said, “Hurry up, everyone, look for the passage’s node. It’s usually nearby, and there’s an energy vortex on the node.”
Everyone immediately started to look for it.
“It’s here!” Jade shouted.
After taking a close look, they could still see Alex’s daughter floating at the entrance node’s vortex with swaying light and shadow. Although they did not see it clearly, they could confirm that it was her.
“Go in!”
Soon, the group of people rushed into the node.
The situation inside was like some kind of passage. Both sides were dark and accompanied by dark spatial turbulence. There was a rapid rhythm of light and shadow.
The group of people walking on the wide passage of more than ten meters in the middle looked like they were traveling through time and space in movies.
“Daughter!” Daya rapidly rushed toward her daughter. But soon, she jumped back again.
Countless, dense, wandering Undying Clan bugs covered the void ahead. These bugs were as big as a fist, and their entire bodies were black. The passage was initially dark, so she did not see them clearly earlier. When Daya got closer at this moment, these bugs that seemed like void garbage opened their eyes abruptly.
Their eyes had blood-red light. Immediately afterward, they let out a burst of shrill insect cries and rushed toward her.
“Beware of the bugs!”
Buzz!
One after another, the people at the back took action and built a Chi barrier to block out the bugs chasing after Daya.
However, these bugs lay on the barrier, opened their mouths, and revealed a mouthful of sharp teeth, starting to gnaw it up right away. The ‘crack’ sound was particularly rhythmic, such that the people who heard it felt a numbness in their scalps.
Meanwhile, the Chi barrier was full of holes being gnawed at speed visible to the naked eyes. They saw the bugs were about to rush over.
“Thundering flames!”
Alex waved his hand and emitted the thundering flames, burning the bugs through the small holes. Although there was a bit of effect, there were too many densely packed bugs. They only burned a few of them, but there were thousands of them gushing over.
Finally, a bug drilled in through the gnawed, broken hole and pounced on Daya like lightning.
“Be careful!”
“Block it!”
Smack!
Jade slapped the bug to death with her sword, but a puff of deadly Chi floated out of the bug’s body.
Immediately afterward, more and more bugs rushed through the barrier.
“Kill!”
Everyone started killing the bugs.
The bugs were not difficult to kill, but more and more deadly Chi floated out of the bugs’ bodies, condensed, and filled the entire passage.
“Something isn’t right! I’m feeling a bit dizzy. My Chi isn’t flowing smoothly!” Jade shouted.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2063
“It’s the deadly Chi! The deadly Chi here is poisonous!”
Alex immediately grabbed out a bottle of pills and distributed it to the crowd. However, it did not lift the status after consumption.
Daya hurriedly said, “This isn’t a toxin, but the deadly Chi has suppressed the spiritual power. The more deadly Chi we breathe in, the more Chi in our bodies will be suppressed.”
Aesop asked, “What should we do? I obviously feel that my combat power is weakening. I’m afraid I won’t be able to withstand it anymore soon.”
Roar!
Vajra Demonic Ape let out a wild roar.
Its body was huge. At this moment, some bugs pounced on it and frantically gnawed its body.
These bugs could even bite through the Chi barrier, and there was nothing that it would not gnaw. They even gnawed Vajra Demonic Ape’s skin and flesh with ease, such that Baymax immediately wailed in pain.
Everyone immediately rushed over to help it clear the bugs on it.
But even so, several bloody holes were bitten out of it, and its white fur was stained red with blood.
Looking at his daughter, who was still thousands of meters away, Alex’s gaze was steady as he said, “Back off! All of you retreat! Leave this place to me!”
Jade said, “We can’t even do it with so many of us. You alone will be overwhelmed by the bugs in no time.”
Alex said, “It’s fine. I’m not afraid of the deadly Chi!”
Other people’s combat power was declining but not his. He had the Chaos Tree, the Chaos Beads, and the divine power in his body. All of these could restrain the deadly Chi.
Just then, Daya shouted, “Look ahead, what’s that thing?”
Everyone raised their heads and saw an expanse of grayness gushed over like a tidal wave.
“It’s… It’s the deadly Chi. A huge volume of the deadly Chi!”
“The Undead Gate is getting bigger. The Undying Clan is going to come out of it!”
Alex made a prompt decision. “You guys go back quickly. Daya, don’t worry. I’ll rescue our daughter for sure.”
As he said that, he rushed out of the crowd and shot forward like a bolt of lightning.
A flash of lightning shrouded his body and illuminated the space.
“Hubby!”
Daya was anxious as she wanted to follow him. However, the bugs blocked her path, and the frenzied tide of the deadly Chi got closer. Before it was completely close to the crowd, they were barely able to bear it, as if they would collapse soon.
“Go!”
“Trust him!”
Jade pulled Daya away and immediately retreated.
The group of people rapidly rushed out of the passage node.
It was also at this moment that Alex rushed into the massive tide of the deadly Chi. As the boundless deadly Chi enveloped him tightly, the deadly Chi entered his body to suppress his Chi and spiritual power.
The people outside the node saw Alex, whose lightning on his body was getting weaker, stopped in the void, motionless.
They were all high-strung. They wondered if he could make it through.
Daya even anxiously shed tears due to anxiety as her husband and daughter were inside there. Now their life and death were uncertain, so she suffered from tremendous mental pressure.
Time lapsed further. Alex could no longer be seen after being enveloped by the deadly Chi.
Such a time lasted for several minutes. Only then did the crowd suddenly see a stream of golden light coming out in front as if it had come out of the mist and traveled through time and space to give hope to the people.
“Still… Still alive!”
Daya burst into tears.
At this moment, golden light burst out of Alex with surging divine power.
After the deadly Chi had entered his body, his mysterious golden core captured it and turned it into the divine power instead.
“Get lost!”
Alex seemed to have turned into a golden Buddha as the clothes on his body tore, bit by bit. He walked toward his daughter one step at a time.
The boundless deadly Chi retreated and fled.
He was getting closer. He reached out to hug his daughter.
Just then, a hundred foot tall undead skull rushed out of the Undead Gate. It was none other than the Undead King earlier.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2064
‘D*mn!’
Just as Alex hugged his daughter, he saw the hundred foot tall Undead King running out. His heart instantly skipped a beat as he was about to turn around and run away.
However, how would the Undead King let him run away?
It did not matter if Alex alone ran away, but the little girl with divinity in her body must never leave. Otherwise, the passage would immediately disappear, and the Undying Clan army would not be able to pass through the passage and return to the world.
Roar!
“You want to leave? Not so fast!”
Whoosh!
The Undead King opened his mouth and roared, spewing several masses of dark energy. He instantly rushed up to Alex.
The squirming dark energy changed, with mysterious runes flowing inside it. All of a sudden, it merged with the alternate dimension’s passage barrier. Both sides of the passage that were still pitch-black earlier quickly became stable as the light and shadow froze, with rimes trembling on it.
‘What’s going on?’
‘Let’s get out first!’
Alex couldn’t care less about him now. He was alone while carrying his child. How could he fight such a guy?
If Alex wanted to fight him, he had to unite with the companions outside. He stepped out and rushed toward the passage’s entrance. Unfortunately, teleportation was useless in the alternate dimension’s passage. Otherwise, he would have reached there sooner. However, the distance of several thousand meters was suddenly too much of an effort.
The distressed Jade and Daya outside the passage’s entrance shouted together, “Hurry up, hurry up!”
Daya even wanted to rush in again to back him up.
Bam!
Daya’s head hit something at the entrance, creating a bump on her forehead.
“Ah!”
“What’s going on? Why can’t I get into the entrance?”
“What? How could this happen?”
Jade hurriedly probed inside with her hand, only to touch a barrier that was as hard as a wall. She abruptly raised her Chi and landed her punch on it hard.
Wham!
There was a loud bang.
Countless black runes flowed on the space barrier at the entrance. A recoil shocked Jade’s body and sent her flying. She spat a mouthful of blood.
At this moment, Alex also rushed there while carrying his daughter.
Immediately afterward, a loud boom rang out.
Alex was light-headed from the bump. He was blocked. His daughter bawled from the severe shock as well.
“Hubby! Hubby!”
Daya stuck her face outside the entrance as she patted it anxiously. It felt as though she was looking at him through the window, yet she could not get past it. Her heart was in her mouth. Seeing the Undead King catching up to him inside, she felt her heart throbbing.
“Hahahaha!
“Human brat, you even dare come here to run rampant with your little cultivation base?”
“Give the little girl to me, and I’ll bestow you a name in the Undying Clan.”
Alex ignored it. Instead, he observed the black runes at the entrance. Although the runes’ appearance was a little strange, they were still ancient runes. Moreover, they were the ancient space runes… This was a principle of undergoing myriads of changes while remaining the same as its origin. There was only one type of ancient runes. Hence, they were universal and the same as what
Alex had learned from the Crazy Crone.
Given some time, he would be able to decipher them.
‘Right!’
“Decipher it like this!’
Alex’s eyes lit up as he found the key nodes of these runes.
Condensing the spiritual power in his hand, he immediately pressed on it and inscribed the space-attributed ancient runes with his divine power to decipher the formation blueprint on it.
It looked like the passage was about to be opened again. However, the Undead King clearly would not let him go with ease.
“Ants!”
Buzz!
He abruptly opened his mouth, condensing a gush of tremendous force out of thin air. As if it were a black hole, he sucked both Alex and his daughter and threw them into his mouth in the blink of an eye.
“Ah!”
Daya, outside the passage, yelled in shock as tears streamed down her face.
“Alex, Alex!” Jade shouted and slammed into the entrance’s barrier frantically as well. Her mouth was full of blood from the bumping, yet she refused to stop. However, everything was in vain.
Alex, who had been sucked into the Undead King’s body, felt the substantial deadly Chi.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2065
It was pitch-black inside as if endless wraiths were wailing. That was not a sound but some kind of mental fluctuation that acted on his brain directly.
Moreover, his body also encountered an invisible force’s touch and squeeze. It felt as though countless hands were touching his body and tearing him.
Alex was not worried about him, but his daughter. She was just a month old and could not withstand too much suffering.
However, at this moment, a force in the darkness grabbed at his daughter and wanted to snatch her away from Alex. The force that enveloped the little one was very powerful.
Alex’s golden core spun vigorously as the divine power gushed out and held her tightly.
However, the Undead King’s cultivation level was too high.
Roar!
“Persephone’s Polly Bridge, come quickly and help me!”
The boundless divine power rushed toward the mind palace fiercely.
He had no choice. Although the scammer, Persephone’s Folly Bridge, was expensive, it was helpful.
At this moment, it was not the time to save his divine power. He would just give it ten million points!
Whoosh!
A little girl dressed in red came out. She seemed to have grown slightly bigger!
“Oh, where is this place?”
The little girl looked relaxed, but after a while, she stomped her foot angrily. “B*stard, what the heck are you doing? How dare you run into the Undead King’s stomach with this little garbage cultivation base of yours? Are you tired of living already?”
“Lil’ madam, do you think I was willing to? I was sucked in here.”
“Hurry up and get to work, or else you’ll never acquire the divine power if I’m dead.”
The little girl snorted coldly. “ If you’re dead, naturally, there will be the next heir.”
Alex said, “Heir, my a*s! Do you think I don’t know that? Ksitigarbha had waited for three thousand years for me. If you’re capable, you can wait for another three thousand years in the Undead King’s stomach.”
The little girl stomped her foot fiercely. However, she still cooperated obediently…
“Forgotten River by the side of Persephone’s Folly Bridge!”
“There’s neither right nor wrong in life! There’s neither merit or demerit in death!”
“Bridge, come forth!”
Buzz!
The blood-stained Persephone’s Folly Bridge suddenly appeared.
The little girl said, “The Undead King’s stomach is a domain itself. Summoning the Persephone’s Folly Bridge in his domain will consume a billion points of divine power! Rockefeller brat, you better remember this. You owe me ninety million points of divine power.”
Alex, who was now holding his daughter’s hand, even felt immense pain.
“Ninety million points, so be it.”
“You better hurry. I can’t hold it any longer!”
As the little girl fiercely waved her hand, the Persephone’s Folly Bridge shot a chain out, wrapping it around Alex and his daughter. With a violent tug, they were pulled back onto the Persephone’s Folly Bridge. In an instant, the pressure on his body lightened.
Meanwhile, the Undead King, who sensed Persephone’s Folly Bridge’s existence, was astonished yet furious. “You’ve… Actually obtained Ksitigarbha’s Persephone’s Folly Bridge. In that case, you’re Ksitigarbha’s inheritor? D*mn it!”
The little girl said in a crisp voice, “The one who should d*mned is you! Even if there are no ten people, eight kings have died in my hands too. I won’t mind adding you as another one! Styx River, come forth!”
Buzz!
In an instant, the Styx River below the Persephone’s Folly Bridge abruptly hung upside down. The endless, billowing river water poured down.
The horrified Undead King roared wildly, but his body was melting away at speed visible to the naked eyes.
Roar!
“Even if I’m dead, I won’t let you people live in peace!”
“Undead Passage, make it explode!”
Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom!
Right before Daya and Jade’s shock filled eyes, the alternate dimension’s passage node opened by the Undying Clan started to explode violently.
“Hurry and go!”
The tool spirit little girl, the Persephone’s Folly Bridge, sent Alex and his daughter out of the Undead King’s body using the Persephone’s Folly Bridge. She re-entered Alex’s mind palace with a whoosh, and the Persephone’s Folly Bridge disappeared following that.
‘Run, run, run!’
Alex rushed forward with the fastest speed while carrying his daughter.
He saw Jade and Daya. He heard their shouts and saw their tears.
“Hubby, hurry up! You must come out!”
“Alex, go for it! ”
Just then, the space violently collapsed. A gush of peerless force enveloped the father and daughter.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2066
Alex reached out to Daya.
It was a short distance of one meter, but it seemed like a heavenly rift. No matter how hard he tried, he could not advance for another half-step.
“Hubby!”
Daya reached out as well, but she could not touch him at all. She burst into desperate tears.
“Go quickly! Go quickly!”
“The space in the Well of Life is about to collapse, I… I’ll protect our daughter, I swear!”
Alex shouted. As the golden core spun vigorously, the divine power enveloped his entire body. The chaotic Chi energy wrapped both the father and daughter tightly. The next second, a tremendous force wrapped and devoured the alternate dimension’s passage, dragging the entire space into Undead Gate with a swish.
In the blink of an eye, everything disappeared.
“Ahh!” Daya cried hysterically, but at that moment, that node had already disappeared.
Aesop said, “Master, let’s go quickly. The alternate dimension’s passage on this side is going to disappear too.”
Jade picked up Daya with her arm. “Go!”
The crowd hurriedly retreated to the Well of Life’s narrow passage entrance and rushed upward desperately.
The sound of whistling energy carried over behind them as a gush of immense force rushed into the Well of Life, pushing everyone upward. The Well of Life erupted endlessly with a splash, spraying an infinite amount of Spring Water of Life out of the inside. Even the crowd was sprayed out of the well, and the ground turned into a pond depression.
***
Buzz!
Inside the dimensional passage, Alex dared not relax in the slightest as he hugged his daughter tightly.
The force suddenly retreated and crushed all the matters into a ball. Such a force was simply indescribable. For a moment, Alex felt as if his bones had let out a series of burst sounds. His peerless, powerful bones were crushed alive, and boundless pain swept through his entire body.
However, he did not forget his mission, he had to protect his daughter.
‘Requiem Clock!’
Alex immediately summoned the Requiem Clock and then hid inside the clock while carrying his daughter.
Bong, bong, bong! Bong, bong, bong!
The Requiem Clock emitted a series of deafening sounds like the morning bell and the evening drum. This was a piece of mighty Buddhist artifact with extraordinary power that held out against the spatial compression.
Then, it was a burst of violent spatial tremor.
Alex was slightly relieved as he managed to resist it. While checking his daughter’s condition, he hurriedly ran the Chi in the golden core to recover the broken bones. The divinity glowing with vigor in the little one protected her well. At this moment, she looked at Alex with a pair of black eyes while babbling.
“What a poor little kid. You have to follow me, your father, through this kind of hardship without even getting a name yet.”
“Hehehe…”
The little one did not understand Alex’s words, yet she opened her mouth and laughed.
Alex could only seek joy amidst sorrow after being affected by his daughter’s smile.
However, a strong thought surged in his mind-he had to protect her life no matter what.
“Woo, woo…”
Hiding in the Requiem Clock, he could hear the whistling sound in the space outside. It sounded like the wind, yet it was not.
At times, there was even the sound of something hitting the clock.
The divine power inside the golden core constantly flowed toward the Requiem Clock. The consumption was huge, and Alex himself could feel it. The large golden lake of the divine power kept shrinking, and the amount of loss was inestimable.
In this way, he had been floating and sinking in the void, not knowing the time nor space. It might be very long, it might be very short.
The next second, the space suddenly shook violently, and the pressure on his body plunged.
He seemed to have rushed out of the collapsed alternate dimension’s passage and returned to the normal space.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2067
Meanwhile, almost at the same time, the Requiem Clock let out a sorrowful cry and shrank abruptly into Alex’s mind palace. This Buddhist treasure, the divine artifact that Ksitigarbha had gifted to him, suffered severe damage in the collapsed dimensional space.
“Hoo, hoo, hoo…”
When Alex opened his eyes, the first scene he saw was a particularly huge, still blood-red moon. Everything around him seemed to be bathed in a dark red hue. Only then did he realize that he was high in the sky, falling straight down with a particularly fast speed.
‘F*ck!’
Alex jumped in shock when he turned around and took a look.
‘What is this place?’
Meanwhile, the place where he fell was densely packed with skeleton soldiers and the Undying Clan’s monsters.
‘Oh my god! I was dragged into the Undying Clan’s territory by the collapsed space passage. Most of the undead warriors here are waiting to pass through the Undead Gate! If my daughter and I were to end up here like this, wouldn’t it be the same as treading on dangerous ground?’
Alex hurriedly summoned the Sword of the Universe and wanted to get away from this place with the Imperial Sword Flight. Only then did he suddenly realize that this hellish place forbade air travel.
He stood on the Sword of the Universe, yet he could not even fly on it. The gravity under his feet was particularly strong as well. A powerful pulling force pulled both Alex and his daughter to the ground hard.
Wham!
Alex, who was carrying his daughter, slammed hard onto the ground with a loud thud. Not only did he crush a bunch of Undying Clan members to death, but he even made a huge crater.
The sudden change seemed to have exceeded the undead army’s expectations. At least tens of thousands of pairs of eyes around him looked over in unison.
‘Uh… Oh!’
Alex’s heart sank abruptly.
The next second, a boundless, huge roar was heard.
In front of him, an incomparably tall Undying Clan member, who was probably the general’s existence and also had the skeleton form, opened its mouth and made a series of gibberish sounds as if to say something. Alex understood none of it, but he immediately understood it when he saw the Undying Clan member’s action.
It wanted to kill him.
Roar!
Series of loud roars was heard. Countless Undying Clan members raised their large feet and fiercely brought them down on Alex.
‘F*ck!’
Alex hurriedly grabbed the Sword of the Universe and made a blade of light.
‘Great Mighty Divine Sword!’
‘Kill!’
He had no choice under such circumstances but to force his way out of the siege desperately. Facing the undead army, the divine power was the most effective combat power.
While invoking the divine power to create a massacre with his Sword of the Universe, he held his daughter and fled madly… This strong gravity here, which was at least ten times that of Earth, made him feel very uncomfortable. This was also probably the key to the ban of air travel in this place. Fortunately, the place where he fell belonged to the undead army’s minion soldiers, the kind of soldiers without strong abilities.
He slaughtered all the way through them. Soon, he had made a bloody path full of white bones.
Countless undead army chased after him.
At this moment, he was extremely grateful for the air-ban rule here. Otherwise, the winged undead demons would have caught up to him at once.
The Crazy Crone’s teleportation cultivation pattern saved the father and daughter’s lives again as he stepped out. Although it was not as far as ten miles on Earth, it was also an incredible speed to move one mile in a step.
The pursuing soldiers behind them decreased. The roaring became softer.
Soon, it was completely inaudible, only then did Alex stop with lingering fears. He did not know his location nor all the directions. All he could see was a barren expanse of red soil and yellow sand.
Meanwhile, the little one in his embrace bawled. Tears streamed down her face as she bit her finger and stared at Alex.
‘Cr*p, she’s hungry and wants to drink milk! But, where do I find a wet nurse for you?’
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2068
‘A wet nurse. Oh, Daughter, where can I find you a wet nurse in this unfamiliar d*mned place?’
Alex looked at his daughter, and then looked at the barren land. For a moment, he was overwhelmed by all sorts of emotions.
However, he soon realized a ruckus coming from behind them-the Undying Clan had caught up to him. As the ground shook, the sound got closer.
‘F*ck, I’ve escaped to this far but they can still catch up?’
‘What perseverance.’
Alex had no choice but to pick up his daughter and unleash his footwork, dashing in another direction.
In between, he even kept changing his positions. However, what made him deeply frustrated was that he had clearly shaken off the opponent. After a while, the Undying Clan members would catch up to him again.
Such a situation happened several times, so Alex knew that something must be wrong.
He calculated carefully. ‘D*mn!’
It was because this place had no spiritual energy at all, and only the deadly Chi filled the air. In order to resist the deadly Chi from entering his body, the golden core in his body constantly spun and the divine power’s energy kept seeping out. Other than that, the natural divinity on the little one also automatically protected her from damage while emitting a faint green light.
Both of them were like a beacon on the sea in this land of the Undying Clan.
‘D*mn, how can I work this out?’
However, he had no choice. If he wanted to survive in this place, it was impossible without divine power and natural divinity.
Another fatal fact was that he had thrown Kala Temple’s access door outside.
Earlier, he had used the teleportation portal inside Kala Temple and teleported to Myriad Demon Valley’s inside to pursue Nora. So, he had left the door in its initial place, and it did not follow him. Otherwise, he would not be so miserable right now.
Alex’s daughter’s crying also made him heartbroken yet distressed.
At this moment, a whim struck him. ‘That’s right, there’s the Spring Water of Life!’
‘Even if there’s no milk, it’s also good to drink some water to quench your thirst!’
Alex had collected a great amount of the spring water in the Well of Life earlier, so it came in handy at this moment. This little one would be the future Goddess of Nature, perhaps she wouldn’t resist the Spring Water of Life, right?!
As expected, after he fed her a little of that, she immediately stopped crying. Her expression was even particularly cute as she smiled slightly.
Seeing this smile, Alex felt a special satisfaction.
“Daughter, now we have to depend on each other for survival. I won’t hesitate to shed blood and sacrifice my life for your sake!”
“You’re so cute when you smile. How about Daddy name you Charlotte Rockefeller?”
“You don’t like it? D*mn, how can you blow such a big bubble on your nose?… Fine then, I’ll call you Bubbles Rockefeller.”
The little one immediately giggled.
If Daya were to know that Alex had given their daughter such an absurd name, she probably would be infuriated. However, she was now frantic. How could she not be anxious when both her husband and daughter had disappeared?
Jade comforted her. “Alex has many tricks up his sleeve. He will be able to avert the disaster for sure. Don’t be too anxious now. Let’s see if we can confirm his current location, okay?”
Daya said, “The alternate dimension’s passage has collapsed and retracted with the energy condensation. He’d have a slim chance of survival!”
“So, that means there’s still hope for his survival?”
“Should be…” As Daya said that, she suddenly recalled something, the Stake of Exorcism that Alex had given her had his soul imprint, and Maiko inside also had a soul connection with Alex. At this moment, she could tell if he was still alive at a glance.
She hurriedly took it out and looked at it. Her anxious heart calmed slightly. Clearly, he was still alive. As long he was alive, there would be hope.
Jade said, “He’s still alive. That means they have landed inside the Undying Clan’s territory.”
That made everyone nervous again.
***
At this moment, Alex once again sensed the Undying Clan’s pursuit.
Furthermore, this time, it was not just from one direction, but there were Undying Clan members coming from different directions.

‘How troublesome!’
He could sense the abilities of the pursuing Undying Clan members getting stronger.
During the pursuit process, Alex had also killed many Undying Clan members. However, they were more difficult to kill later. Until that time earlier, he had encountered two Undying Clan members that were about the same height as humans. Not only were they skeletons, but they were also monsters covered in barbs and fleshy membranes with a particularly strong defense that almost killed him.
At this moment, he could sense the pursuing Undying Clan member’s powerful aura.
When he looked clearly, he was even astonished. ‘Good grief, another Undead King is coming over.’
Moreover, it was a female at a glance.
‘It can’t be that guy’s concubine, right?’
‘I can’t really beat this thing right now.’
At first, Alex still wanted to fight it. Now, he could tell that he could not even beat her at all. After opening her mouth to make a sucking gesture, she simply turned into a super vacuum cleaner and sucked them into her nostrils right away. There was a vast difference in their strengths.
“Adoration to the Triple Treasure!”
Alex immediately threw out a paper doll that soared in the wind and transformed into a golden Buddha.
Meanwhile, he hurriedly cut and ran while holding his daughter.
However…
The female king behind him soon broke the golden phantom and chased after them. The speed was simply unbelievable.
Alex had his heart in his mouth. Suddenly, the Chaos Tree inside the mind palace vibrated. All the Chaos Beads vibrated rapidly as well.
This feeling was too familiar to Alex.
Clearly, it was the feeling of sensing something good or the reaction from the encounter with other shattered Chaos Beads. According to the magnitude of this vibration, it was most likely the latter.
‘A shattered Chaos Bead?’
‘I hope it’ll bring good luck!’
Anyway, Alex would be caught soon, so he planned to take a gamble to find the shattered Chaos Bead by following the direction of the Chaos Tree’s vibration.
A mist appeared ahead.
Unexpectedly, there was a sandstorm stirred up by the fierce gale.
However, Alex was overjoyed as the existence of these things could cover his tracks. The Undying Clan members would not be able to find him at once like a bright lamp in the dark night.
What made him even more surprised was that the tens foot tall female king, who almost caught up to him, being just a few hundred meters behind him, abruptly stopped and roared at Alex this moment.
“Huh?”
“What’s with this? What the heck are you screaming for?!”
The female king was able to speak, so she shouted, “The Gods’ Tomb with chaotic rules lies ahead. You’ll end up dead if you walk over! I can spare your life if you put down the kid in your hand.”
“The Gods’ Tomb, is it?”
After a moment of daze, Alex burst into laughter. “I’m not afraid at all! You want me to hand over my daughter to you? Dream on! You don’t dare to come in, do you? Then, I won’t wait for you! D*mn it, you’re so ugly and don’t even wear clothes! What the hell?! Disgusting!”
He even taunted her for a while before walking straight ahead.
The female king behind him seethed with rage when she heard him, but she dared not come closer.
Alex was holding his daughter. He said those words earlier easily, but he still felt uncertain. After walking ahead for about ten minutes or so, he suddenly saw a palace.
It was white, hidden in the sandstorm.
Meanwhile, the Chaos Tree in his mind palace vibrated and pointed toward the palace.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2070
Alex approached it, step by step, while holding his daughter.
When he looked at the palace again after getting closer, he felt a shocking sense. It turned out that this palace was built with white bones and a bizarre gate was formed by the densely packed skulls. There was a huge stone monument in front of the gate. Several ancient, bold words ‘Gods’ Tomb’ were written on it.
‘The Gods’ Tomb?’
‘What did it mean?’
Alex could not understand it.
However, the bursts of vibration in the mind palace became even more intense, as if the Chaos Beads had found something extremely exciting. On the other hand, the sandstorm here became stronger as well. The sand and wind that slapped his face caused immense pain.
He could only hide his daughter’s face in his embrace and protect her entire body with Chi. However, not only did this sandstorm contain the deadly Chi, but there were all kinds of negative energy like slicing blades.
As the crimson moon sank, the sandstorm grew fiercer as well.
‘I have no choice then! I can only go and hide inside!’
Alex took a deep breath and stepped into the white bone palace. In an instant, he felt countless resentful Chi rush over and a series of sorrowful wails that filled his sea of consciousness.
His mental strength encountered an unprecedented impact.
Alex was worried about his daughter, so he was about to exit it quickly. However, the bone gate suddenly banged shut. When he turned around to look, the gate had disappeared, as if it had never existed.
Bawl! Bawl!
All of a sudden, his daughter let out a cry.
Alex jumped in shock as he thought that she was in discomfort after being affected by the resentful spirits. But soon, he discovered that his daughter’s cry carried some kind of mysterious power. Right, it was the power of divinity that rendered the resentful Chi into nothingness.
The divinity in her glabella emitted a faint green glow that enveloped both of them.
“Good baby, you’ve saved your daddy’s life!”
Alex could not help but kiss the little one on the cheek. Until then he had the mood to look closely at this white bone palace, the Gods’ Tomb.
At a glance, it was even a more terrifying sight. There was really a tomb inside.
There were neatly arranged graves with different sizes everywhere. Some had epitaphs on them; some did not
have epitaphs.
Alex looked over one by one…
‘Yadav divine tribe, the Heavenly King Krishna’s tomb!’
‘Nine Rivers divine tribe, the Divine Maiden of Love’s tomb!’
‘Nightwatch divine tribe, Assex…’
‘Heaven Bead divine tribe, Seven Star Divine Monarch…’
Alex got more terrified as he looked at them. Why were all of them from various kinds of divine tribes? What kind of existence was that? He had never heard of them, but all the people buried here seemed to be big shots. They were either Heavenly Kings or Divine Monarchs.
He had seen some descriptions in the legacy left by his ancestors.
Heavenly Kings or Divine Monarchs were an existence that surpassed the immortals.
They had boundless magical powers and an unlimited lifespan. Why would they die here?
Did some kind of major event happen in the past?
At this moment, the Chaos Tree in the mind palace shot something out of itself that fell in the Gods’ Tomb. It was life like and swayed lightly before finally turning into a stream of light and falling in front ofa certain tomb.
A thought surged in Alex’s mind. This thought was formed by the Chaos Tree.
It wanted… Alex to help it dig the tomb.
‘No way?’
‘This is a deity’s tomb. You actually want me to dig it? You better don’t come up with some lousy ideas, okay?’
However, the Chaos Tree did not care about what he wanted. Seeing that he refused it reluctantly, it stirred up some unreasonable troubles in his mind palace. D*mn, it almost shattered Alex’s mind palace while causing throbbing pain.
‘I’ll dig it! Godd*mmit, I’ll dig it, okay?’
‘If I find nothing good after digging, I’ll kill you!’
