The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2311
“You picked it up? Do you think I’ll believe it?”
“Forget it if you don’t believe it.” Alex waved his hand in the air to grab the heavenly law fruit again. Serene was slow in both reaction and action, so it was snatched away at once.
This made her overwrought.
The price that she had paid was so great that it had severely harmed her origin. If she had the heavenly law fruit’s help, she would acquire an immense replenishment to alleviate the loss of origin in her body.
“Yes, yes, yes! I want it! I want it!” Serene shouted anxiously. Fortunately, she had now turned into a real granny. Otherwise, it would be offensive in terms of public decency for a stunning beauty to say such things. Serene finally obtained the heavenly law fruit once again.
However, she sighed. “Unfortunately, it’s too difficult to find a master alchemist now, and at least half of the medicinal power would be wasted if I consume the heavenly law fruit right away. If it could be refined into a Supreme Chi Rejuvenation Pill… ”
She did not say anything further.
It was because she felt it was simply unnecessary to continue talking about it. Even a master alchemist may not be able to concoct the Supreme Chi Rejuvenation Pill successfully because it required 100% purity without any foreign substances. Otherwise, it would be a failed pill with adverse effects.
“Supreme Chi Rejuvenation Pill?”
Alex felt that the pill was a bit familiar. Finally, after pondering for a while, there was relevant information in the Ultimate Book of Medicine. It was a kind of supreme elixir that could help one stand back up again. It was classified as the great ninth-grade pill, and its rarity even surpassed many elixirs.
As for Serene’s current situation, if she could consume the Supreme Chi Rejuvenation Pill, there would be a chance that she could recover her original power and even break through the previous shackles to make further progression and advance to the next level.
When the two people walked out of the apse, they saw a dense crowd of people kneeling outside. All of them were the disciples of the Plenilune Sect, top echelons and low-ranking disciples.
Seeing Serene’s appearance, they immediately shouted…
“All hail the sect master!”
Now that the Plenilune Sect’s sect master had died, Serene’s unexpected return had given the entire sect unparalleled hope. They hoped that Serene could lead the Plenilune Sect back to its pinnacle.
However…
“You guys are wrong. I’m not your sect master. I’m now called Madame Coufal.”
“The sect master of the Plenilune Sect is receiving the legacy inside. Therefore, she will be the sect master of the Plenilune Sect from now on, and no one can replace her.”
An elder said, “Senior, our Plenilune Sect had been extremely weak all these years. So we really hope a big shot like you could lead and guide us…”
Serene mocked herself. “My cultivation base is all gone, and I can’t even defeat you, so how can I talk about leading you guys? Don’t worry. Once the new sect master completes the legacy, she will certainly be able to lead us back to the moment of the pinnacle.”
To be frank, many people of the Plenilune Sect were slightly upset.
Frostine was not a member of the Plenilune Sect, but a captured prisoner. As a result, this prisoner was going to become the sect master. They felt that it was somehow absurd.
However, Serene’s reputation in the Plenilune Sect was too great. She was just second to the sect founder, Chantelle Seay. Now that the living Serene had spoken, naturally, no one dared to object.
Night descended.
Alex was lying on a bed. This was the Plenilune Sect’s luxury accommodation. Now that Frostine had become the sect master, he, as the junior, was considered to have some ties of kinship or friendship to her. In addition, the people of the Plenilune Sect treated him as an old monster from ancient times, so no one dared to disrespect him, let alone assassinated him at night.
He was thinking about the recipe and the materials for the concoction of the Supreme Chi Rejuvenation Pill in his mind.
Finally, he carefully counted the medicinal herbs with him that he could use. He still lacked a crucial Earth Orchid, so he planned to find Serene to ask about it. If she had it, he would help her concoct a pill. It would be considered as a… Charity!
Alex fell asleep in a daze. Then, he heard a voice in a daze. “Come on in!”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2312
Alex’s current mind was a little confused as if he was dreaming. That voice was of a woman and sounded slightly familiar, but he could not remember the person. Moreover, it was pitch-black before him, so he could not see anything clearly.
The point was, how did he enter it?
Where was he going?
There was no hole and the like in front of him that could allow him to enter!
It was unknown if the one in the dark had read Alex’s mind, so a hole appeared before Alex the next moment. Unfortunately, it was minuscule, such that it could not be fit in with a pinkie. However, the tiny hole contained faint light that guided Alex, slowly approaching as if it were a beacon in the dark sea.
What was there inside the hole?
Could it be that a female bodhisattva was living inside?
Alex approached it slowly. He noticed that the hole seemed far away, so he could not help hasten his pace and kept moving forward. Then, the hole gradually grew bigger.
It was as big as a bottle cap.
Afterward, it seemed to be as big as a bowl… Finally, it appeared to be as big as a water tank.
Until he arrived at the hole’s entrance, he noticed he appeared to be tiny, as if a small ant crawling into a round archway. However, he still could not see clearly what was inside the door.
A force field sealed the hole like a layer of film and like a layer of water ripple with only the emanation of faint, subtle and hazy white light.
“Come on in!”
The woman’s voice reappeared, a little clearer than before.
At this moment, Alex’s consciousness began to be clear. At first, he suspected it was a dream, but now he understood that it was not. Instead, it was incredibly real as it was painful when he pinched his thigh.
‘Where is this? Did a female bodhisattva forcibly drag me into a certain time-space?’
‘What would there be inside? What is the female bodhisattva trying to do to me?’
Alex hesitated and turned around to look, but it was pitch-black that he could not see anything.
“What are you hesitating about? What are you afraid of?” The woman’s voice reappeared.
Alex heard it this time. It was not the female bodhisattva but the female previous incarna tion’s voice. His previous incarnation was calling him.
He reached out and touched the hole’s force field as if it were a layer of the elastic film. His fingers seemed to have felt some kind of viscous substance that he could pass through with a slight force.
Alex made up his mind and exerted force at once.
Boing!
He passed through the force field. The view before him was well-lighted all of a sudden. The enormous space was boundless. He seemed to have entered a certain realm with blue sky and white clouds. At a glance, it was full of lush green grass with only a tree standing in the center.
‘The Chaos Tree?! So huge?!’
Before him, the Chaos Tree surpassed his imagination as the Chaos Tree in his mind palace was huge enough with a height of several thousand meters. Yet, when he looked at the tree before him, it was blotting out the sky. He had stood far enough, but he still could not see its top at a glance. According to the ratio, it would be at least billions… Fine, it was impossible to use the usual measurement standards to measure it.
“Come over!”
The voice came again. It came from the Chaos Tree.
However, Alex did not find anyone after using his full sight.
At this moment, a gush of mighty mysterious force suddenly swept him up and forcibly pulled him in the direction of the Chaos Tree at a breakneck speed.
According to Alex’s journey on foot, he initially estimated that he would not be able to arrive at the foot of the Chaos Tree after walking several days and nights. However, he reached there in the blink of an eye.
He saw an antique wooden table. There were two cups of clear tea on it, with the heat wafting and curling up. However, there was no one.
Where was the person?
“Hello?”
“That whoever… Female bodhisattva. My previous female incarnation, where are you?”
“I’ve come in. Aren’t you going to come out to meet me?”
Alex looked around, but he could not even see any figure.
It took a long while before he could hear a gentle voice wafted next to him. “Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about me?”
Alex jumped in shock and retreated on a conditioned reflex.
The voice source was on his left side with a distance of not more than a meter. However, he could not see anyone.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2313
There was nothing before his eyes.
‘Am I blind?’
Alex rubbed his eyes, but he still did not see anyone. But then, he saw a teacup on the table was being slowly lifted and titled, and the tea liquid inside was poured into somewhere in the air. Then, it disappeared.
Therefore…
“Are you an invisible person?”
This discovery surprised Alex greatly as he could see souls with his eyes, but the one before him was really invisible.
“Have some tea while it’s hot!” The woman’s voice was faint and sounded otherworldly.
Alex hesitated for a few seconds. Then, finally, he thought that she was unlikely to try poisoning him, so he simply let his guard down and calmly sat down opposite the invisible woman before picking up the teacup and drinking in one gulp.
He even smacked his lips at the end.
“Huh? This tastes good! Do you still have more?”
Aroma remained on the lips and teeth, his throat was stimulated, and his whole body felt soothed when the cup of tea went down his stomach.
The woman’s voice across the table emanated a worldly aura. “Casting pearls before swine.”
Alex awkwardly put down the teacup and carefully glanced at her. In fact, he did not see anything, but he still felt nervous inexplicably. He could imagine that the woman must be thinking, ‘What a waste of a cup of good tea! It’s better to let a pig drink it!’
“Ahem, Se… Senior, about what you just said, what did I misunderstand about you?” Alex asked.
“I’m not your previous incarnation,” the woman said.
“Huh? You are not?”
“My next incarnation couldn’t be this stupid.”
“Oh…” Alex breathed a long sigh of relief. “It’d be best if you aren’t. Really… It’d be best if you aren’t. I was worried for a long time. If you are my previous incarnation, I’d really feel like banging the wall.”
The woman was speechless. It was uncomfortable.
She clearly looked down at him, yet she felt that he was giving her the cold shoulder. This person was awful at talking.
At this moment, Alex asked, “Who are you then?”
The invisible woman did not answer right away. Instead, she seemed to hesitate to tell Alex about it, so there was a moment of silence under the Chaos Tree.
One minute!
Five minutes!
The surroundings were so quiet that Alex thought that the woman had walked away.
“Hey, are you still there? If you don’t want to talk, you should squeak. You’re too impolite to run away without saying anything.”
As soon as he said that, the sound of running water could be heard as the water was being poured into the teacup before the woman. It was unknown where the water came from, but it was emanating fragrance. Alex ignored it previously, but now he felt the benefits of the tea as it soothed his body and nourished his meridians with Chaos Chi of an extremely high purity flowing through his body.
It was much purer than the one coming from the Chaos Tree. Alex knew that she was still there.
“Can I have some too?!” Alex asked.
The one across the table ignored him and leisurely drank up the tea. Then, after drinking a cup of it, there was another cup, whereas Alex could only stare and did not get a cup of it.
It was until a long while had passed.
The woman was probably full from the drinking. Only then did she push away the teacup and said to Alex, “Have you forgotten that you’re the one who took me with you.”
‘Huh?’ Alex was startled. He did not have such a memory at all.
“Are you… Mistaken?”
“You’ve forgotten this too?”
A purple jade appeared out of thin air and floated before Alex. When he clearly saw the purple jade’s appearance, he was instantly unwell… It was found on the corpse of a female fairy in the Gods’ Tomb of the twilight of the gods in the Undead Territory.
The one before him could not be a female fairy, right?
“You… You…”
“You remember it?” The invisible female fairy asked.
“W-who the hell are you?”
“The others call me the Mystic Maiden.”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2314
“Oh, Mystic Maiden. This name sounds quite mysterious.”
When Alex saw her and muttered the two words ‘Mystic Maiden’, he suddenly recalled a character in American myths. So, he curiously asked, “You can’t be the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens, right?”
However, he thought it was impossible. It was definitely not that Mystic Maiden. Otherwise, he would be astonished.
However, the invisible woman unexpectedly said, “There’s indeed such a name.”
In an instant, Alex was speechless.
The news was so shocking that he needed time to digest it. He thought that a female fairy was already remarkable, but he did not expect her to be the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens. But, rumor had it that the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens was the Yellow Emperor’s mentor and Goddess Mother Mary’s disciple. And, all of them were prehistoric figures eons away from now.
To his surprise, the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens had run into him, hidden inside his cardiac acupoint. Oh, that was not right. That was not the most important thing. Most importantly… Her corpse was still lying inside the Gods’ Tomb, so…
“You’re dead?”
The Mystic Maiden said, “To be exact, I’ve lost a precious body.”
Alex’s mouth was agape.
She addressed her corpse as a ‘precious body’. As expected, the gap between the prehistoric period and now was too huge as several distant epochs separated it!
It just felt bizarre to call it a ‘precious body’ now. Meanwhile, the Mystic Maiden sighed. “That precious body had followed me for many years, and it was condensed using a natural barren jade. So when you took me away, you should have carried my precious body as well.”
“Ah..?”
Alex wanted to criticize her. ‘I raided your tomb and took away your purple jade, but I wasn’t a corpse raider. So why would I carry your corpse away? To fiddle with it?’
However, he did not dare to say it out in the end. Even so, the Mystic Maiden’s words shocked him as the precious body turned out to be a piece of jade.
“That’s not right. I touched you, and the body was very elastic…” Alex blurted out. Then, he realized that it sounded wrong.
As expected, the Mystic Maiden was infuriated.
Although Alex could not see her expression, her breathing became heavy, and a cold wind seemed to be blowing around her.
“Ahem… What’s going on inside the Gods’ Tomb?”
“Why were so many deities buried there? What happened back then?”
“Also, when I first discovered you, you were lying inside a small tomb without inscriptions, unlike the tombs of the other deities. There were tombstones for the others, and also names…”
Alex hurriedly changed the topic and asked a barrage of questions.
The Mystic Maiden did not answer him at all.
When Alex thought she was going to kill him out of rage, she suddenly said, “One hour later, you will face a great tribulation, and your life will be hanging by a thread.”
‘Huh..?’
Alex asked, “You even know what will happen one hour later?”
The Mystic Maiden said, “I’m proficient in fortune-telling. Not only will your life be hanging by a thread, but the entire Plenilune Sect will also collapse. Your senior will die, the little dragon following you will be crippled, and that female disciple who called you ‘sir’ will be the most miserable.”
That female disciple whom she was talking about was Hermione Yggd rasill.
Alex was astonished. “How miserable will she be?”
The Mystic Maiden said, “She will be humiliated to death.”
‘D*mn, she will be so miserable for real?’
However, did Alex need to believe her?
It was not possible for him not to believe her. Legend had it that the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens was not only proficient in the art of war, but she was the founder of ancient divination and art of five elements. So, it should not be rare for her to know about fortune-telling.
Most importantly, this was related to Neela and Frostine. So even if he did not believe her deep down, he had to take it seriously and be prepared for any possible situations.
“Where would the great tribulation of life and death come from?” he asked.
“Didn’t you just offend a group of people? It should be them.”
Alex instantly understood that it was those people from the Sun Shrine. He was distressed at once. To his surprise, they had pursued him to the Plenilune Sect
Alex hurriedly asked, “Is there a way to solve it?”
The Mystic Maiden said, “There is.”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2315
Alex asked, “What kind of method?”
The Mystic Maiden replied, “Me!”
Alex immediately breathed a sigh of relief as it was great that they could be saved. So, he cupped his hands and thanked her. “Senior, thank you.”
Not to mention this time, Alex even had to thank her for running out to kill the old monk, Yavda. However, the Mystic Maiden was not a charitable person, and it came with a price to let her save his life. “There’s a condition that you have to agree to.”
“What kind of condition?”
“Sign a contract and be my servant.”
“I… Thank you, goodbye!”
Alex wanted to curse her. How could he agree and sign a contract? Wouldn’t that mean he would be a servant for generations? ‘Are you trying to fool me with just a few words of yours?’
He turned around and was about to walk away, leaving the foot of the Chaos Tree that popped out of nowhere. However, the problem came. A gush of divine force dragged him over when he came here earlier, but now he could not differentiate the directions and the surroundings all looked the same.
“Hey. May I ask where the exit is?” He turned around and asked.
No one answered him.
Seethed with rage, Alex searched for it on his own. However, no matter how he walked, he seemed to be unable to leave this prairie as he could not reach the end of it at all.
Just then, a scene appeared before him.
That was… The image of the Plenilune Sect’s entrance. A group of people had barged in and were killing people on sight. It was the same group of people from the Sun Shrine. Alex even saw Donovan had stabbed two disciples of the Plenilune Sect that their intestines were spilled all over the ground.
He had also seen the two disciples before.
When he went up to the mountain to enter the Plenilune Sect with Hermione Yggdrasill a few days ago, they had greeted Hermione at the entrance.
‘So, this image is real?!’
Meanwhile, the people of the Sun Shrine continued to advance and kill people on sight.
He even heard a Peak Lord’s laughing voice. “After tonight, the curtain will officially fall on the Plenilune Sect, known as the strongest two millennia ago! Hahahaha!”
“Hey, Mystic Maiden. Is this what’s happening out there?” Alex asked loudly.
“That’s right! My divination is never wrong.” The Mystic Maiden’s voice seemed to be in Alex’s ear.
However, Alex no longer paid attention to this because the Sun Shrine’s members in the image encountered Hermione.
“It’s her. She’s the woman who followed that Rockefeller cheater! She shamelessly screwed her master’s husband in the middle of the night,” Mica Simpson immediately shouted as she recognized Hermione.
Hermione was captured almost in the blink of an eye. “Keep her alive first. Then, I’ll use her to fish out that Rockefeller mongrel,” Donovan Orlando viciously said.
Alex said to the Mystic Maiden, “Hurry up and let me out. I need to save the people.”
The Mystic Maiden said, “Even if I let you out, you’re just going to court death.”
“You don’t have to worry about this.”
“…”
The Mystic Maiden did not make a sound again.
‘F*ck!’
Alex’s heart was in his mouth when he saw the next scene because Neela had appeared. She was standing in front of the Sun Shrine’s crowd, and behind her was the path to the apse.
Frostine was still receiving the legacy inside the apse. “Hey. Hey, hey. Senior Mystic Maiden, are you still there?”
“Hurry up and let me out. I can deal with it because I have a trump card!”
“Senior Mystic Maiden? Sister Mystic Maiden…”
Seeing a gang of people beating Neela up by launching various attacks on her till a significant amount of dragon scales had fallen, blood flowed, and her body was full of wounds, Alex roared furiously, “Mystic Maiden, you two-faced old hag. What do you really want?”
Whoosh!
A contract floating in the air appeared before him. When Alex stared at it, he almost vomited blood. This was a slave contract!
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2316
Was the invisible woman before him the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens who had helped the needy and relieved the distressed?
Alex seriously suspected that she was not only two-faced, but she even had no moral baseline for luring him here so that he could helplessly watch the peril of his relatives and friends without letting him out. She had even prepared a slave contract with the most significant deprivation of dignity.
“Even if you take out a master-servant contract, I still have a leeway, right?”
“You… Do you really have to come to an impasse?”
“Don’t forget that I was the one who brought you out and set you free.”
Alex made the final struggle as he saw the Sun Shrine’s experts besieging Neela with various magical treasures and weapons, smashing her body violently.
She could have escaped. As the last bloodline of the Benares Dragons, she had this ability. She did that to protect Frostine and for his sake!
The Mystic Maiden’s voice was cold. “You’ve dug my grave and even defiled my precious body.”
Alex was speechless.
“Alright! I’ll sign it!”
He released his soul power and let go of his divine consciousness, separating a wisp of his soul to be inserted into the Mystic Maiden’s contract.
“Keep your words! Hurry up and let me out!” Alex roared. There was countless resentment, anger, pain, helplessness, and also a bit of despair in his heart. The moment he signed the contract, he knew that a shackle was binding his head, and a mighty prehistoric power was unfathomably restraining him.
Just one thought from the Mystic Maiden could make his life worse than death.
“What’s the hurry? She can still hold off for a while! Take me to your mind palace!” The Mystic Maiden retrieved the contract. Judging from her tone, she should be quite satisfied with the current result.
“Hold off for a while? She will be beaten to death if she holds off any longer,” he rebuked. However, the result caused him to be in misery. With the contract in place, he noticed that he could not act his own volition. Even though he clearly wanted to go out in a great hurry, his body obediently opened up the mind palace.
The next moment, a gust of wind blew. He knew that the Mystic Maiden had entered it.
At the same time, he noticed the surrounding scenery, the boundless prairie, the towering ancient tree, and the old vines as thick as a mountain shattered like a mirror and vanished in a puff of smoke without any trace.
‘A mirage?’ Alex froze.
However, the billion meter tall Chaos Tree emanating Chaos Chi energy, the branches and green leaves that blotted out the sky, the crystal-clear essence of life, the table, chairs and teacups under the tree in the scene earlier were so real and did not seem to be fake.
“Go, little minion!” the Mystic Maiden said.
Alex froze as he just realized that he had entered the mind palace as well. The Chaos Tree that he had planted in the mind palace was before him, but it was clearly much smaller than what he had seen before, and the Chaos Beads and Chaos Bell were still hanging on it.
‘Um , wait. What did she just call me? Little minion?’
Alex looked over, full of grievance and melancholy, as he felt severe psychological damage. The next second, he was astonished.
A gush of refreshing breeze swept the Chaos Tree, and countless lush green tree leaves fell. All those tree leaves hovered around a center in the air after being swept up by the wind. It gradually showed a contour, looking like a sphere. Then, it looked like a bowling ball… Soon, Alex could see that it was a humanoid.
Soon afterward, the humanoid became more apparent with a body, four limbs and even an elevated chest. From the contour, he could tell that it was a woman who was about 1.7 meters tall and had a graceful curve with a golden ratio… It was just that her body was covered with the Chaos Tree leaves, so he could not see her real facial appearance.
The next second, the woman contour made of green leaves waved her hand at the Chaos Tree.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Unexpectedly, the eight shattered Chaos Beads hanging on it all flew out.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2317
“Ah!”
“Those are my Chaos Beads! What are you trying to do?! Stop it!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a buzz rang out, and Alex felt that his mind was about to explode. As an unparalleled mighty force acted on his soul, he felt a rush of supreme karma that overrode the power of laws, as if it could dominate evaerything.
It was the power of contract. Alex fell to his knees involuntarily with a thud and held his head in pain as he grirnaced hideously with bulging veins.
How despicable!
He helplessly watched all the eight shattered Chaos Beads rushing into a green woman made of green leaves before they were divided into eight locations and hidden within them.
Then, a green light flashed, with white light shining inside her. It was so blinding that he could not clearly see the actual situation inside.
Alex reached out his hands to block his eyes.
When he looked over again three seconds later, his expression became different… The green woman, who was only visible in tree leaves but not the person earlier, had now drastically become a living person, turning into a real woman.
Her icy skin was clear. Her black hair was long. Her delicate body was soft in the wind. She had a beautiful face and a slender figure, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
She was wearing a snow-white outfit that fluttered with the wind with an indescribable charm of a deity and looked otherworldly…
“So the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens looks like this.”
“What a superb… White Lotus!”
Alex muttered to himself, uttering a word that he thought was felicitous. The Mystic Maiden heard him, so she turned to look at him with a hint of a smile in her eyes as if she was satisfied with Alex for using the term ‘White Lotus’ on her.
However, if she were to know that the two words ‘White Lotus’ had long been given a more vivid meaning after the change of times, she probably would not be happy.
She gently lifted her exquisite foot, gracefully turned around and pointed at the Chaos Tree as she said, “From now on, this tiny Chaos Tree is mine. Everything here, including you, belongs to me, the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens.”
Alex tried to weep but failed to shed a tear.
Why did he feel that there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity in her words? Oh, it was a line from A Chinese Odyssey.
“Do you want to make your mark on the sole of my foot too?” he said, extremely helpless and dejected.
“Make a mark on the sole? Why did you have to say that?” The Mystic Maiden froze for a moment. Then, she continued, “Who are you going to show by marking on the sole? If you want to mark it, it has to be out in the open.”
She waved her slender hand, blasting strange energy on Alex’s forehead.
He immediately felt a burst of boiling heat and tingling, and a little blood remained on his touch. Some words seemed to have been carved on it, but he could see nor tell it from the touch at once.
“What did you engrave on me?”
“Do you still have the time to care about this? If you don’t go out, that little dragon sister of yours will really die!”
Alex’s expression stiffened for a moment before hurriedly retreating from the mind palace and returning his divine consciousness to his flesh. He realized that he was still lying straight on the bed of the VIP room in the Plenilune Sect. At this moment, he hurriedly jumped up. As a result, something fell out with a swish.
It pierced through the headboard at the time. It turned out to be… The Xavion Sword!
‘To hell with you, you almost pierced through my crotch.’
“This standard weapon is your reward from your master for being my little minion.”
“Huh?”
‘F*ck you! What a great lie to say it’s a standard weapon! You can try to take out another Xavion Sword!’
As Alex thought about it, he dared not delay for a moment, so he hurriedly picked up the Xavion Sword and rushed to the apse’s entrance using Instant Teleportation. He just saw a row of flying swords was forcing Neela to the point that dangers sprang up around her. Her body had long been injured with hundreds of wounds with blood flowing all over the ground. It was indeed a bloodstained glory.
“Scram!”
In an instant, Alex’s murderous intent surged, and the rage in his chest welled up. Then, he slashed down with his sword.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2318
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
Five consecutive metallic sounds resonated. Five flying swords were broken on the spot after the Xavion Sword had slashed them. The broken blades emitted a mournful wail and fell one after another.
It was at a breakneck speed.
If one did not listen carefully, he would not hear five sounds inside and thought there was only one sound.
Poof! Poof! Poof! Poof! Poof!
On the opposite side, five out of the twelve Peak Lords of the Sun Shrine immediately spat blood simultaneously.
The five flying swords that Alex had severed were their natal magical treasures of high quality. Moreover, they had sacrificed their hearts’ blood for refinement and bound them to their souls, so there was a kind of mysterious connection. Now that all the five flying swords had been severed and even the tool spirits within them had been obliterated ruthlessly, they would naturally suffer a backlash.
The backlash’s damage became more severe as the connection between the user and the natal magical treasure became closer.
“My Flying Rainbow Sword!”
“Ah! B*stard, give me back my Hasty Sun Treasure Sword!”
Those Peak Lords screamed as they were devastated. Especially the guy who shouted the Hasty Sun Treasure Sword even spat three mouthfuls of blood consecutively and grimaced in pain, as if he had just bereaved of his parents. His treasure had accompanied him for many years, and he had even treated the tool spirit within it as his wife. The tool spirit would turn into a stunning lady from time to time and come out of the treasure sword to accompany him to drink beer, chat, play chess, fish, and even often lay on the bed without doing anything…
Now that the treasure sword’s tool spirit had been obliterated, it was more heart-wrenching than a dead wife!
At the same time, Gabriel and Donovan were astonished when they saw the Xavion Sword in Alex’s hand.
The sword was razor-sharp.
Alex held Neela in his arms and hurriedly asked, “Neela, how are you?”
Neela panted heavily from exhaustion. Moreover, she kept coughing blood as she was severely injured. “My lord, I’m fine…”
Alex instantly took out a handful of heavenly law fruits right and stuffed five or six fruits into Neela’s mouth. The moment Neela chewed through the heavenly law fruits, a unique aroma wafted outwith a peculiar power of laws permeating the surroundings so that the people nearby who smelled it were immediately shocked.
“This is… The heavenly law fruit?!”
A Peak Lord of the Sun Shrine, proficient in alchemy, had acquired the heavenly law fruit and once studied it meticulously. He searched everywhere, but he never gained anything, and it had become a regret in his life. However, he finally got to see it.
Yet, it was in such a situation.
To his surprise, the young man casually took out five or six heavenly law fruits and stuffed them into someone else’s mouth, as if they were some worthless tomatoes that he could have as many as he wanted to. Moreover, a lot of juice flowed out from the corner of Neela’s mouth and dripped to the ground because he had stuffed them too fast.
“What a reckless wastage of natural resources!”
That Peak wailed and wished dearly that he could lie on the ground to lick the juice.
Or, he could lick the juice from the corner of Neela’s mouth.
The other people were also emotional when they heard his shouting. The tiny fruit turned out to be the heavenly law fruit, the unpurchasable blessed fruit in the market even though they had tens of billions of spiritual stones… The heavenly law fruit was extremely rare, so the possessors could not possibly take it out to sell it.
Mica was shocked. “Fifth Uncle, is that really the heavenly law fruit? Were you not mistaken?”
That man nodded. “It is. I dare to swear on my life.”
Mica was envious. “So, she has just consumed fifty billion spiritual stones at once?”
The Peak Lord stamped his foot and beat his chest. “What a prodigal! How precious the heavenly law fruit is! It is the main medicinal ingredient for the refinement of the heavenly law pill. One heavenly law fruit could be used to refine ten heavenly law pills, and each pill’s effect is stronger than eating a heavenly law fruit raw.”
Even Donovan was fire-eyed as he said, “There must be more of them on him.”
Gabriel said, “That’s right. Get him to hand over the heavenly law fruits.”
Alex looked up. He saw endless blood and many corpses. All of them were disciples of the Plenilune Sect.
Frostine inside the apse was currently the new sect master of the Plenilune Sect, the hope of the Plenilune Sect. Since Frostine was in trouble, the Plenilune Sect’s members came over to safeguard her.
Instead, they ended up being massacred like poultry.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2319
Although Alex bore no feeling for the disciples of the Plenilune Sect, such a massacre violated the world’s peace. Anyone who had humanity would feel discomfort and anger.
“I do have more of them!”
Alex took out another three heavenly law fruits and waved them before the crowd. But then, he stuffed them into Neela’s mouth again and said, “But, these are the last three fruits. I have none of them now.”
He deliberately angered that group of people.
As expected, a few people’s noses were put out of joint. Especially the man whom Mica called ‘Fifth Uncle’ beat his chest, stamped his foot and howled to the sky. This was his obsession, but he suffered from such a treatment.
“Rockefeller, I’ll give you a chance. Kneel and hand over the Chaos Tree in you along with the Chaos Beads, Chaos Bell, and heavenly law fruits. In this way, I’ll let you off the hook so that you can leave here alive.”
That was Donovan.
“I’m sorry, but you’re late. But, unfortunately, someone has snatched away the things that you want from me,” Alex said.
“What? Who is it?”
The people of the Sun Shrine jumped in shock as they could not accept this.
Alex replied, “A woman called… The White Lotus.”
“White Lotus?”
The people of the Sun Shrine looked at each other in dismay. They had never heard of such a person at all. After a while…
Donovan roared, “You’re bullsh*tting me! We’ll talk after taking you down!”
As he said that, he abruptly took out a sword with silver light leaked from the sword, and the cold lit up the entire place. The moment he took out the sword, the surrounding air temperature suddenly dropped, and an extremely dangerous aura enveloped Alex.
Donovan said, “Brat, this sword of mine is called the God Slayer. It can even kill deities. But, once the sword is unleashed, it must consume blood, and all the people hit by the sword will be dead. So, I’m giving you one last chance. Put down the sword in your hand, kneel, and surrender yourself.”
Alex was expressionless. “How despicable! It’s despicable, just your character. It’s no wonder that Ynes Larkin didn’t want you but bugged me at all cost instead. It turned out that she’s sick of you being too despicable!”
Once Alex mentioned Ynes, Donovan’s face was full of anger.
“You asked for it!”
Donovan could not hold back any longer, so he drew his sword and rushed over.
The silver sword light rushed over like it was an assault from the deep space of the universe and descended from the sky like lightning across the sky.
Alex was dumbstruck as he saw that
Donovan’s sword was razor-sharp and perilous. Moreover, it was arduous for him to dodge it.
Alex activated the 110 golden cores. As the infinite Chi surged, Alex advanced relentlessly and intercepted Donovan with the Xavion Sword in his hand… It was because he could not dodge it. If he were to dodge it, Neela would have to endure the sword move.
Whoo!
Alex’s mind seemed to have sensed the Xavion Sword’s purpose at once.
The Xavion Sword focused on defending.
At the time, his mind aligned with the Sword Intent, as if both the sword and him had reached some kind of unity.
“I shall have your blood splattered on the Xavion Sword!” Alex recited doggerel, but his mind was usually clear.
It seemed that the Xavion Sword had become a part of his body on intimate terms. A stream of sword shadow rushed to the sky.
At this moment, the Xavion Sword’s length was about 1.2 meters, but the sword shadow unleashed was huge and boundless with unprecedented force, as if a large civil aircraft had rushed out of Alex’s back.
Wham!
Clang!
Poof!
Donovan spat a mouthful of blood and paled.
It was because the great sword, the God Slayer, which he treated like a precious treasure, was broken!
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 2320
“Ah! D*mn it..!”
Donovan consecutively spat five mouthfuls of blood, mainly he regarded the God Slayer as a great killer weapon. But, on the other hand, he had been waterng it with his heart’s blood and nourished it with his soul when he was free, so the both of them were in a pleasing relationship.
Now the sword had been severed, and he suffered a severe injury.
Mica concernedly went over to help him up. “Senior, how are you? Are you alright? Hurry up, take this healing pill…”
Donovan knocked away the pill with a slap. “I’m fine.”
He was the Chosen One and was usually arrogant. However, he had been suffering setbacks at the hands of Alex in succession recently, and he was so dejected that he bled internally.
He did not want to admit defeat. Hence, he also could not accept the pill that Mica had brought over.
Mica was sorrowful for a while after she was pushed away. Then, she vented all her anger on Alex. If it weren’t for him, why would her senior treat her like this?
Oh, there was more.
‘That b*stard took advantage of me, so Senior thinks I’m dirty and despises me even more. It must be like this.’
She could not hold back her anger, so she rushed forward a few steps and bellowed at Alex, “Rockefeller, you d*mned b*stard! Rotten scum! A man has to be dignified. But, you disguised as my senior and cheated ten billion spiritual stones out of me and took advantage of me so that I couldn’t get married. You’re 100% a scum!”
It turned out that her cursing sounded like an American shrew.
Alex did not care about her. Instead, he assisted Neela in absorbing the medicinal power of the heavenly law fruits. Soon, Neela rushed into Alex‘s flesh and turned into a dragon pattern, hiding under his skin.
“What weapon is that in your hand?” Gabriel asked as his eyes were full of bewilderment and envy about the Xavion Sword.
Alex replied, “A murder weapon.”
Facing so many experts from the Sun Shrine, he lacked confidence as well. Therefore, he was not invincible even if he had the Xavion Sword. Furthermore, the blow earlier consumed too much Chi, and the feeling of man-sword unification in the Xavion Sword earlier disappeared.
“Hey, Mystic Maiden. Senior Mystic Maiden, are you done yet? Come out and do your job!”
To his surprise, the Mystic Maiden’s words came from the mind palace. “I can’t help you now. Ineed a period of a few days to fuse with my precious body.”
Poof!
Alex wanted to vomit blood as he felt that he had been deceived. He had received critical damage of ten thousand points psychologically.
“Didn’t you say that you could help me once I signed the contract? You deceived me. Do you think it’s fun to deceive me? Anyway, you’re a bad*ass big shot. Don’t you think it will lower your standard?”
“This is called all’s fair in love and war.”
“I…”
“Besides, didn’t I give you the Xavion Sword? What more do you want to deal with a few weak minions? I’m your master, not your nanny, okay?”
Alright, this was the true Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens.
‘White Lotus. Oh, White Lotus. You’re truly evil.’
Alex criticized internally. At this moment, the people of the Sun Shrine finally came to their senses from the shock earlier. But then, they were all envious of the excessive treasures on Alex. Everyone said that Donovan was the blessed man, the favorite child of Lady Luck. Finally, they discovered that Alex was the heaven, earth, and luck rolled into one with all sorts of rare magical treasures that emerged in an endless stream, moving the people.
Gabriel seemed to have made a specific decision. He roared, “Summon the Tower of God!”
The twelve Peak Lords were startled in unison but nodded at once. It seemed that the Tower of God was something amazing that required the joint forces of all the people to use it truly.
Alex’s gaze turned cold as he could not foolishly wait for them to summon the Tower of God to deal with him. So, he instantly dragged the Xavion Sword and launched a preemptive strike at the nearest Peak Lord.
“I’ll block him!”
A Peak Lord roared with surging Chi, and a stream of purple aura emanated from his body, curling his entire body like a snake.
Many surrounding people of the Plenilune Sect watched the scene, including Serene. After giving her bloodline power to Frostine, she turned into an old lady who did not stand out at all while standing in the crowd. So, no one from the Sun Shrine paid attention to her, an old lady at her death’s door.
