Ch. 3081..3090

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3081

“That would be enough.” Maximilia said and took a deep breath. She raised her sword and entered the formation again.

Although she was Maximilia at the time, she was Jade in all but looks. She was resolute and refused to be sluggish for the slightest second. With a blade in each hand, she rushed in, slashing every single demon as harshly as she could.

“Ahhh!!! Why would there be a formation here? How could the strategist’s formation be used against his own people?”

“That scholar… That scholar is a formation master! Kill him, kill him!”

The demons started yelling in rage, but they couldn’t do anything now that they were within the formation. Restricted, their fighting skills were obsolete. They could only watch as Maximilia sliced them up.

“You’re dead, humans!”

“Every human who trespasses into Kroraina has to die!”

As the demons shrieked, the golden phoenix scorpion continued hitting the boundary with its body as if it had gone crazy.

Since Alex needed the eggs of this scorpion, Maximilia didn’t kill it just yet. She waited till every single demon had been dealt with to handle it.

Unexpectedly, the scorpion seemed pregnant. Several minutes later, it stopped and laid flat on the ground before laying its eggs.

Alex found it ridiculous. “I didn’t expect us to get the eggs so easily.”

Maximilia rolled her eyes. “Easy? Do you know how many times I almost died?”

After a slight pause, she continued, “The scorpion is at its weakest right after giving birth. Let’s kill it when it’s in this state!”

She rushed over, only to see the scorpion lifting its tail into the air.

“Be careful!” Alex yelled.

Whoosh!

The tail shot out a poison sting. It landed on the back of Maximilia’s thigh, rather near to her butt. The woman was badly injured, but she continued attacking relentlessly, knowing she needed to kill that scorpion. In the end, she chopped off its head while enduring the intense pain.

With this, the fight had finally ended. However, Maximilia fell to the ground as well, her thigh red and swollen.

Alex rushed over. “The poison of a golden phoenix scorpion is always changing, and each one has different properties. You have to get the stinger out.”

Maximilia wanted to do that as well, but even the slightest touch was excruciating. Yet the poison spread quickly, heading towards the heart through her bloodstreams.

“We can’t delay it any longer. Just let me have a look!” Alex said and took off her pants.

Since they had hugged each other naked to warm up in a dark place, he thought that treating her poisoned wound wouldn’t be a problem at all. Alex made a small slit in Maximilia’s thigh a few minutes later and successfully took the stinger out. About the poison… Alex figured that something within the scorpion could be used as a cure.

Just as he was dissecting the scorpion, Maximilia hugged him tightly from behind. Her expression was weird, and her cheeks were bright red. Moreover, her entire body felt very warm, and her eyes filled with sheer desire.

Alex jumped. “What’s wrong, Maximilia?”

Krrra!

She tore off her top and stumbled over her words. “I want to do it with you!”

‘What?!’ Alex froze and instantly understood what was going on.

The poison that the scorpion released was rather peculiar, it could enhance a woman’s sexual desires.

“Was it because the scorpion was pregnant?”

Alex immediately looked for a cure, yet Maximilia pinned him down to the ground. His current self couldn’t possibly defend himself against the woman, so she was able to get on top of him very easily.

“Hey, Maximilia! Don’t! You’re Jade!”

“Really? Now? But I am Maximilia here!”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3082

Maximilia exerted herself with brute force, and Alex was unable to resist. When she started smashing her lips into his, Alex was helpless. Without the strength to do anything about it, he decided he should simply enjoy the moment to the fullest.

Alex didn’t know if this was justifiable, but his body reacted very honestly. His mind was so foggy that he didn’t even think for a second that Maximilia’s saliva had been tainted with the scorpion’s poison as well. At one point, the two were so drowned in lust it was hard to tell who was taking the lead. Basically, this little ‘session’ lasted a very long time.

Even the fake moon seemed to have become shy as it set at a seemingly earlier than usual.

In the blink of an eye, the sky was bright once more. Alex and Maximilia were currently lying on the floor, unable to move an inch.

“Maximilia, it hurts!” Alex said.

“You don’t have to say it out loud. I’m in pain too!” Maximilia narrowed her eyes, wanting to turn to the side. However, she frowned the moment she tried moving.

It really did hurt a lot.

Later on, Alex was the one who had to turn around. He looked at Maximilia. Her hair seemed quite messy. “Maximilia, let me have a good look at you! I couldn’t see you properly for a few days. It was too dark…”

Maximilia pushed his face away. “What’s there to look at? This is just the body of an illusionary woman. She doesn’t even possess ten percent of my actual beauty.”

“Nah, I think you look pretty good.”

Maximilia was speechless. “Even if it’s an illusion, this is still our first time doing this together. It deserves to be in my memories forever.”

Maximilia then looked towards the sky in deep thought.

The two only regained their energy during the afternoon. It was fortunate that they were within the formation, and nobody could enter. If they weren’t, they would’ve been surrounded by demons, especially with their current state.

“Should we go look for the strategist’s treasures?” Maximilia asked.

“What’s the point? This is just one of the challenges of the Heavenly Stairs. Even if we do get it, we don’t actually have it in our possession. Besides, do you know where the treasure is?”

Maximilia’s lashes fluttered gently as she blinked. “Mhm!”

Alex asked, “How did you know, though?”

“I’m the boss of the Death Inn. No information gets past my ears!”

After that, Maximilia explained how she obtained the information. It turned out that there was a special tool installed in every single room of the inn, the Thousand Miles Wiretap.

As long as someone spoke in the room, Maximilia could hear every single word. Moreover, the mystical tool achieved what modern CCTVs could do, they could record. If she had missed the conversation, she could still replay the recording and listen to it whenever she pleased.

By using this tool, she overheard someone mentioning the location of the strategist’s treasure. It was in the Kroraina Palace.

“If the treasure is some kind of physical item, there wouldn’t be any use of obtaining it here. But it would be a different case if the treasure was some kind of scroll. Since we’re already here, let’s go take a look!” Maximilia said.

“Alright then!”

Before leaving, Alex approached the scorpion carcass. Its eggs were right below the body, and he needed them to save the woman in the painting. That was the only indication that his mission was a success. The moment he picked those eggs up, a voice echoed through the air…

“Obtained golden phoenix scorpion. Mission complete, the participant will successfully enter the next level and receive rewards. Congratulations!”

At the same time, another voice spoke up as well…

“Failed to kill the scholar and foil his mission to obtain the golden phoenix scorpion eggs. The contestant would be eliminated, banned from challenging again within a year.”

‘What?’

Alex looked towards Maximilia. “Was that your mission? Your mission… Was to kill me?!”

Maximilia smiled and nodded gently. In actual fact, she was still a little anxious.

‘I wonder if the elimination has any side effects. But according to the announcement, I’ll probably be fine.’

Alex didn’t know what to say. If she wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as pie. Yet she decided to give up on her own mission from the start. Instead, she focused on helping him complete his mission.

That was because she still wasn’t the actual Maximilia, she was Jade Benmore, Alex’s master.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3083

Alex embraced and kissed her deeply. She wasn’t Maximilia now. She was Jade herself.

Whoosh!

Maximilia’s body started falling apart. As if she were porcelain, her body slowly shattered into small pieces. She was smiling, with a faint layer of red on her cheeks. She stared at Alex as her life was put to a halt…

Alex watched as Maximilia vanished into thin air. Pieces of her fell down like petals, crumbling into dust. The sight saddened him quite a bit. Suddenly, a ray ofwhite light shone onto him. It would seem that he had to leave this illusionary realm as well.

“No way… I got the eggs. Should I hand it to the woman in the painting?”

“I’d still like to find Ynes’ ancestors! Hey…”

However, the light didn’t care about his wishes. It opened up a portal and separated Alex’s soul from his current body. His soul was then sent through space, reaching the second step with the white light.

Whoosh!

Alex found himself back in his own body.

He then moved around, turning to look behind. Jade seemed to be standing at the bottom of the stairs. At the time, she stood there quietly, as if she were in a trance.

‘She’s not Maximilia anymore! She’s now the real Jade in this reality! Everything that happened was just an illusion!’

He turned back to the front and lifted a leg.

Stomp!

With this, he got up to the second step. Initially, Alex thought it would be just like the first step. He would be sent into a special illusionary realm, where he would be playing a persona and completing a random mission. However, nothing happened, no matter how long they waited.

‘Nothing?’

Alex took another step, going up the third step. But, again, nothing happened at all.

“What’s happening?”

“Does the illusionary realm only appear on the first step?”

Alex was hesitant for a short while, then immediately started dashing upwards.

‘Fourth… Fifth… Sixth…’

He reached the thirteenth step in mere seconds, which was Eustace’s limit. However, he just stayed on that step for half a second before ascending further.

‘Fourteenth…Fifteenth… Sixteenth…’

Lorelei, Nebula, and the others were absolutely stunned. They had lived here for three thousand years and had tried going up the stairs thousands of times. Even so, something this weird had never happened in the past. Every step had its own story and mission, always in a constant pattern. Despite all this, Alex’s current speed was simply unbelievable. It was something that they had never experienced before.

“Could the stairs be broken?”

Without exerting much strength, Alex could ascend over five hundred steps. Moreover, he seemed to be moving quicker and quicker, going as far as the thousandth step. After that, he ran straight into the clouds. No one could see him.

Jade smiled brightly. “This guy is always so remarkable…”

Gilbert asked, “Commander Benmore, did you end up in the same illusionary realm as Alex when you went up the first step? What did you two experience there?”

‘What did we experience?’

Jade’s heart thumped slightly when reminded of their little “session”. Nevertheless, she remained calm on the outside.

“We had to do a mission in the desert. It was way too hard. I couldn’t even get through the first step. It looks like I’d have to work harder from now on. Would you like to give it a try too?”

Gilbert nodded. “Alright!”

He took a step up, but there… Wasn’t any illusionary realm as they had expected before.

He looked back several times, his face filled with disbelief as he went up the second step. “Where’s the illusionary realm? Why didn’t I get it? Did I walk with the wrong posture?”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3084

There weren’t any wrong ways to go up a step. Besides, Gilbert had walked in a very standard posture.

Lorelei’s assumption was spot on. The Heavenly Stairs was, in fact, broken.

The ax within Alex’s consciousness was the thing that broke open the boundary by force. It had rushed up to the top as if summoning something from within. But, due to Xienna’s sudden appearance, she disrupted its path, causing it to fail.

In reality, it malfunctioned when Alex and Jade were on the first step, resulting in their inability to ascend the second step.

Basically, the core of the entire Heavenly Stairs was damaged. The current Heavenly Stairs could no longer generate mental domain challenges, so it was no different than regular stairs. That’s how Alex was able to run up all nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps with ease.

‘Close!’

‘I’m getting closer!’

Alex was now able to see the end of the stairs.

There was a tall mountain floating in the air, it looked like the legendary Brightta Mountain. Yet it wasn’t. It was the Western Queen Mother’s ancient palace.

Whoosh!

Alex leaped over the last step. Suddenly, the scenery in front of him drastically changed. He was no longer looking at the ancient palace but instead a living hell. He found himself in a plain of ruins. There were corpses everywhere, death, and concentrated amounts of negative energy reeking in the air.

Rumble!

He suddenly heard a loud noise coming from afar. A cloud of dust could be seen as if something was sprinting towards him. Alex stood there silently as he watched on. In the end, he saw a group of Undead.

It was an endless swarm of skeleton troops and Undead beings. Alex had fought this clan at close range before. He had even encountered some of them in several dungeons. Moreover, he had personally entered the Undead Territory once and was hunted down by swarms.

The Undead in front of him were the ones he had seen in the past, the strongest kind. The entire front row alone consisted of dozens of Undead Kings.

In the middle of all these Undead Kings, a woman dressed in red armor sat on a luxurious chariot. Alex started shivering as soon as he laid eyes on that woman. He looked at her in disbelief because he had seen her in the past.

It was under the Dead Zone, within Emperor Genbu’s territory. She had once projected a phantom of herself to fight the emperor. She was the Undead Queen of the Undead clan.

‘Why would there be such strong Undead troops at the end of the stairs, including the Undead Queen?’

‘Illusion!’

‘This must be another illusion!’

‘What character am I this time?’

Alex couldn’t help but curse this place. He wanted to complain as well. The first challenge was difficult enough, and it took them a lot of effort to succeed. Not only that, Jade even sacrificed her own mission. Hence, he should’ve been able to receive certain rewards.

Unexpectedly, he got nothing.

Just then, the queen pushed the Undead Kings out of her way.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3085

The chariot carrying the queen moved slowly towards him, pulled by ten Undead white horses. The horses had red-orangish flames coming out of their heads, their bodies adorned with a full suit of shining armor. This made them look very powerful.

Alex wasn’t scared. He knew that this was just a mere illusion. ‘I have nothing to be afraid of. I’ll just fail my mission at most.’

But…

The chariot stopped a hundred meters away from him. The queen’s eyes looked very mysterious as she stared at him. “We meet again, seed.”

Alex was stunned, he thought. ‘This illusionary realm is quite impressive. The Undead Queen even knows about me being the seed. Truly impressive.’

The queen smiled sweetly. “Do you think this is an illusionary realm? And that this is all just an illusion?”

Alex froze. “Is it not?”

The queen chuckled. “The buildings and floating mountain you just saw was the true illusion. I have been waiting here for a very long time to meet you again, seed.”

‘What?’ Alex was dumbfounded.

‘This is not an illusion? It’s all real?’

“Then what is this place?” He spoke his mind.

“What is this place?” The queen giggled once more. “Take a guess, but I suppose you won’t get it right. Do you know what the Heavenly Stairs are? Do you know… What lies at the end of all nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine steps?”

Alex was utterly appalled. ‘This Undead Queen knows about this too! That means everything she says is true. This is really not an illusion.’

Suddenly, he remembered that he wasn’t inside his own body when he was in the first step. Not even his clothes were his. Everything had been created by the illusionary realm. He immediately checked his clothes, only to realize that it was, in fact, his own. Nothing had changed, not even in the slightest.

Alex then checked his mind palace, noticing that Shelly, Ancestor Bodhi, and the Mysterious Maiden of Nine Heavens were all still there as well. They responded as usual when he called out to them.

“Oh no. Does that mean the stairs lead to the Undead Territory?”

“Hahahaha!” The Undead Queen cackled. “Correct! The stairs do lead to our territory! It is something we Undead have purposefully put in this universe. We hoped that someone could go all the way up, open the door and welcome us.”

“We have been waiting for thousands of years. I have to thank you for letting us come back to this universe.”

Alex nearly vomited blood. Initially, Emperor Genbu had fought for three years worth of time for them to prepare, and there was supposed to be one more year left. However, walking up the Heavenly Stairs had shortened this time by a whole year.

“Seed, you are quite amazing,” the queen spoke up again. “I see potential in you, so it would be a shame to kill you. That’s why I’m giving you a special chance right now. Join my clan, and I will train you. You can become an Undead King.”

Alex scoffed loudly. “Dream on…”

“What? Do you think the position is too low for you? Well fine. You’re the seed, and the entire universe sees you as their ruler. It is in fact too low!”

“How about this then? You can be my king, and I shall bring you to another universe! This is a lowly universe, even falling behind the other universes. There’s no point in achieving anything here. Follow me to a universe of a higher class. That’s where we should actually be going.”

“You lack a king?” Alex laughed again. “So you’re basically saying that you, the Undead Queen, have no game? I have several gorgeous wives. Why would I want scraps?”

The queen was furious. “Do you have a death wish? I’ve been nothing but reasonable, so how dare you speak to me like that? You say you have several wives, huh? Then take a look at this! Is she one of them?”

“Guards, bring her over!”

Two of their troops then walked up to them, dragging a woman.

After taking a closer look, Alex gasped in surprise. That woman was his father’s disciple, his sworn sister, Frostine Usoro.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3086

“Frostine, Frostine! How are you doing?”

Two Undead Kings dragged Frostine. Her clothes torn and tattered, her hair disheveled, and her body still covered in blood, it gave her the appearance of a long-term prisoner. She didn’t say anything.

Alex, on the other hand, could see that she was still alive, albeit unconscious. Remembering how Frostine defended herself and treated her, Alex’s eyes were red, and he felt his heart ache.

“What did you guys do to her?”

“It’s not really about what happened, but what’s going to happen to her if you anger me again,” the Undead Queen explained.

“Undead Queen, you are at least an Undying Clan king, but you employed a method as despicable as kidnapping. Aren’t you ashamed?” Alex roared.

The Undead Queen burst out laughing. “You don’t have to provoke me, Alex! In the eyes of you humans, my Undying Clan has always been a bad thing. Do you think I care about my reputation? What difference does it make if I’m a b*tch? Are you ready to be my king now?”

Alex took a look at her. “Impossible!”

“Do you want to watch her die?” asked the Undead Queen.

Alex didn’t say anything because he was waiting for an opportunity. Then, he rushed over, and the Ten-Point Forbidden Spell he had prepared for a long time struck out with gusto, attempting to snare Frostine from the Undead Queen’s hands.

The Undead Queen, on the other hand, gently hooked her hand. Alex couldn’t help himself and took a step back. Then, like a fly, The Undead Queen trampled him easily with her feet.

There was a heaven and earth distinction. There was no room for half-hearted resistance in front of her.

“You kill me!” Alex addressed the Undead Queen.

“I’m not going to kill you, I’m going to kill her.”

“No, please don’t…” The Undead Queen’s two swords touched Frostine‘s neck, and fresh blood flowed out. Alex screamed in agony.

“What do you think? Do you agree?” the Undead Queen asked.

Alex‘s thoughts waned. ‘I‘ll cut and deal with her first. It’s crucial to save Frostine now. I‘ll also learn more about the Undying Clan’s flaws, and when the time comes, I’ll reverse it.’

“All right, I promise!”

It was, however, wishful thinking.

The Undead Queen was no fool. Having fortified herself against him, she declared, “So, now that you’ve let go of your mind, I’m going to do a soul restriction on you. Don’t worry. You won‘t lose your freedom or your cultivation. It will simply make you a member of my Undying Clan, and you will be completely loyal to us in the future. You will make the Undying Clan’s interests your priority.”

Alex was taken aback. If he truly did this, he would become a puppet of the Undying Clan. Furthermore, given his position in America, the consequences of being used by the Undying Clan would be unthinkable. Earth and entire America would have to be destroyed because of him. He’d become a sinner for a long time.

“Sorry, I can’t do it,” he said slowly, straightening his back.

”You don’t want her to live?” the Undead Queen asked.

Alex’s smile was pitiful, and he burst into tears. “Frostine, who is deeply righteous, is a heroine. If she lives and sees me as your lapdog, she will live a life worse than death! Frostine, you go first, and I’ll come after you.”

Poof!

Frostine’s head shot into the air.

Alex’s heart was pounding so hard that blood flowed from his eyes. “You’ll be an old prima donna for the rest of your life, you old woman,” he cursed.

“Old b*tch, you ugly bitch that no one wants, you will die a death ten thousand times worse than her! ”

He struggled valiantly, exerting all of his strength. However, the Undead Queen trampled on him, pressing down like a planet. Alex was unable to move a muscle.

“It appears that this woman is not important enough for you!”

“Well then, I’ll give you another woman and see if you’ll still bring it up!” the Undying Queen said with a smirk.

Alex was taken aback.

Was there anything else?

Who was it again this time?

The person brought up was a young girl, perhaps three to four years old.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3087

The face reminded him of someone he knew. She was dressed in a tattered white skirt, her feet were bare, and there was blood on the soles of her feet, as well as slap marks and scabs on her face.

Alex almost went insane when his eyes met the little girl’s gaze. His heart shookviolently, and tears streamed down his cheeks.

Bubbles was his daughter, the one he had with Daya!

Her real name was Angel, upon Daya’s suggestion. She had been in Emperor Genbu‘s secret realm, making Alex and Daya think about her every day. There was no way they could meet each other, and Alex never expected her to have grown so much. The key was she had been caught by the Undead Queen.

“Dada, Dada…” Bubbles looked at Alex and called out softly.

At that moment, Alex’s heart was as if pierced by a sharp knife.

“My little Bubbles… ”

“Undead Queen, you are heinous and shameless. You… How did you capture her?!”

The Undead Queen reached out and touched Bubbles’ cheek, saying, “That’s not important, what matters is whether you love your daughter or not.”

“Of course I love her! I would die for her!” roared Alex.

”That would be best, for her sake. Are you willing to listen to me and let me put a soul restriction on you?” the Undead Queen asked with a giggle.

This was a truly difficult decision.

Alex laid on the ground, staring at Bubbles, wishing to die in agony.

“Daddy, Daddy, I miss you…”

“Ah..!”

Alex’s Chi exploded, and the lotus seeds in the three thousand nascent souls clattered and grew. Each lotus was black and white.

“Go to hell! Go to hell!”

“I’ll die with you, Undead Queen!”

Alex turned over fiercely and clung to the Undead Queen’s thighs. He even crawled up, grabbing onto her crotch bone. Then, the three thousand nascent souls in his body exploded!

Everything went silent. The Undead Queen vanished.

The Undead Army had vanished.

Bubbles, his daughter, had also vanished.

Even the purgatory environment he had just seen wasn’t there. Instead, he was lying on the grass, surrounded by nothing.

“Why am I not dead? Am I still alive?”

“Bubbles, Bubbles. Where have you gone?”

There was no response…

Then, he heard footsteps behind him. The sound was of feet on the grass.

Alex jerked back, only to see that… Female statue instead of the Undead Queen.

“Why are you…?” Alex was taken aback.

“Congratulations on passing the final trial,” answered the female statue.

“Test? Are you saying that everything that had just happened… The Undead Queen, my senior sister, my daughter… Was just a test? It was all an illusion, not real?” Alex’s mouth dropped open.

The statue nodded. “That’s correct!”

Alex became ecstatic and danced around like a lunatic.

Finally, the statue stopped him. “You passed the test and exceeded my expectations. I have now decided that you are the true seed.”

Alex was taken aback. ”Didn’t you tell me to compete fairly with Eustace?”

“There is no time… The Immortal-slaying Sword Formation can only last another seven days!” said the female statue.

“Crap!”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3088

The Immortal-slaying Sword Formation had a seven days lifespan. After that, Alien visitors laying their eyes on the formation from outside the atmosphere would surely descend to Earth on a large scale. The ramifications of this situation were far-reaching. Alex didn’t dare to think about it because it was so serious.

However…

“How do you know the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation only lasts seven days?” Alex inquired awkwardly. The Immortal-slaying Sword Formation was divine, and no one knew where it was hidden. The average person simply couldn’t even find it, let alone know precisely how long it could last. Unless.

How was she linked to the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation?

The female statue gently beckoned to him, and a sword appeared out of nowhere.

Alex locked his gaze on it and nearly screamed.

“The Immortal-slaying Sword? How did you summon the Immortal-slaying Sword?”

His brain whirred into thought. When he first arrived in Yukon to take over, he was still on the nameless island. There had been a big commotion above the sky. A prominent sect leader had protested against the protective boundary outside the earth’s atmosphere, resulting in the strangulation of the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation.

The faint shadow of a woman‘s head appeared in the middle of Immortal-slaying Sword Formation.

Could it have been the female statue?

”You, who the hell are you?”

“Who am I exactly? I’m just a lonely wandering ghost,” the female statue said softly.

Alex gave her a look.

She was thought to have been a remarkable person a long time ago.

“Well, time is not on our side. Eustace has captured every location that spews spiritual energy tides. He is ready to take these sacred places for himself. He has seriously violated the rules of his mission and is no longer suitable to be a seed. The risk is too great,” the female statue said again.

Alex’s pupils dilated.

Taking over all of the sanctuaries?

This person’s audacity was out of proportion.

More precisely, he was too ambitious. It completely denied others the right to live!

“Eustace’s chaperone has arranged a whole set of formations to unite the cores of all sanctuaries. He’s trying to take away all spiritual energy of this world. He wants to suppress Yukon’s Chi. Once he succeeds, Yukon will be depleted of spiritual energy, and America will likely turn into a dead star,” the female statue explained.

Alex was taken aback. He had not anticipated the severity of the consequences.

”So, what are we going to do to stop him?” Alex asked.

“See that jade building up there? It was used to emit a radiant light some time ago, the general outline of the wastelands laid out back then. It was also the only way to clamp down on Eustace.”

“So, those people back then, did they also envision a situation like today?” Alex asked.

“That’s right!” said the female statue.

Subsequently, the female statue took Alex and shot towards the jade building above. In an instant, the Heavenly Stairs beneath his feet transformed into a beam of light and rushed into the divine mountain floating above.

“Ah…”

Those who were attempting to ascend the Heavenly Stairs abruptly lost their support. They plummeted from the sky one after the other. Fortunately, there were no weak people among them. Even if the Heavenly Stairs vanished without a trace, they could still land safely on the ground using their own abilities rather than plummet to their deaths.

Lorelei and others were once again taken aback.

The Heavenly Stairs had, in fact, vanished without a trace.

Once the Heavenly Stairs were no more, entering the jade building or the Western Queen Mother’s palace was nearly impossible. It was because the Heavenly Stairs was the only way leading to that suspended divine mountain.

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3089

Furthermore, there was no other option.

Imperial sword flight and flying through the air were both useless. It was because that location had a more fortified boundary.

Alex was utterly stunned when he stepped on the floating divine mountain. What he had seen below previously was incomplete. Or, more accurately, the boundaries limited vision.

The floating divine mountain he typically saw was worlds apart from the one he saw after coming up. What he normally saw was adequate, but now, he was looking at a vast, lush land teeming with immortal spirits.

Immortal beast meat overflowed in the place… No, it should be the immortal beasts.

Alex saw the huge, very meaty beasts. With a smell, he knew those were good food. His stomach screamed, and he couldn’t resist what he saw.

”Can I eat all these things?” Alex asked.

Thinking he was inquiring about the spiritual herbs and medicines strewn around, the statue nodded and said, “Yes, please take them!”

“Wow! That’s really…Fantastic!”

The statue then led Alex directly into the jade building. He was surprised to discover this once he arrived at the entrance. The jade building was filled with profound and complicated rules and heaven and earth’s Dao energy. At first glance, it appeared to be very advanced.

“Back then, the fact that that the seeds might go rogue didn‘t go without consideration. Hence, secretly, there had long been an arrangement. The formation in this jade building holds not only the seed’s creation but also the general outline of the ancient boundaries,” the female statue explained.

Alex was taken aback. “Does this place also control the ancient boundary?”

“That’s correct!”

“You have… You should have been a well-known leader within the League of Cultivators back then, right? Lorelei and the girls addressed you as Your Highness, and you… Could it be possible that you are the daughter of League of Cultivator’s alliance leader?”

The female statue smiled but didn’t respond.

Alex, on the other hand, desired to know the truth. “Is it or isn’t it?”

“Then, you have to tell me what your name is all the time. Do I address you as… Female statue every time I call you?”

“You can call me that,” she unexpectedly replied.

“Well, female statue, your statue is also quite beautiful. It is lifelike. Everything the other statues do not have, you have,” Alex waved his hand.

“Do not mention this, or I will turn you into a silly statue. A real statue,” the female statue raged.

Alex quickly shut his mouth. However, he speculated that she might have the ability of the Six Eternities in her body, and she previously stated that she would let herself reincarnate as a pig, so it appeared that turning himself into a carving was not difficult.

“The most I can get for you is seven days.”

“We must activate the wasteland’s spiritual energy formation in advance. During these seven days, you devour as much spiritual energy and Chi as possible. This jade building can plunder ninety percent of Chi and spiritual energy of the Wasteland and other holy places.”

The female statue gave him a glance, “You cultivate the Ten-Point Forbidden Spell and carry the Ultimate Book of Medicine. If I am correct, you should be the descendant of Uncle Rockefeller.”

Alex’s eyes widened, “Uncle Rockefeller? Which one are you pointing at?”

The female statue said, “Blaine.”

‘Holy sh*t, the old ancestor!’

‘She actually called the old ancestor an uncle?’

Alex’s old ancestor seemed to be quite powerful tool.

”Is your surnamed Rowan?” Alex suddenly asked, “Are you the daughter of Grand Emperor Rowan?”

The female statue’s eyes showed a hint of dominance. “Everyone else calls me, Little Divine Phoenix!”

Alex was even more shocked, “The first daughter of Grand Emperor Rowan?!”

The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3090

Alex had no idea the female statue held such high status. It’s no surprise that Lorelei and the others addressed her as Her Highness.

Rumor had it that Grand Emperor Rowan was the League of Cultivators‘ alliance leader in ancient times. However, the more central figure was the Phoenix Empress. The Phoneix Empress still raised Grand Emperor Rowan and, in the end, even married him. This was known as the male emperor breeding plan.

Grand Emperor Rowan had a large number of wives and children. However, the child he had with the Phoenix Empress was unquestionably the most important.

“Let’s not waste time on this nonsense. Time waits for no one. I will now immediately drive the rules in the jade building, causing the spiritual energy and Chi in the wasteland to explode sooner. So get ready… Remember that your cultivation is ultimately limited, and bearing all of this Chi should not be easy. But the longer you hold on, the better the effect will be for you.”

“You take a different path. The secret realm of the great Genbu requires you to become immortal. Your daughter fell inside. When the time comes, I can help you open the passage,” she said after a brief pause.

Alex was ecstatic. “Then, senior, thank you…”

‘Senior?’

The Little Divine Phoenix looked at him. He was correct. She then began to activate the jade building‘s general pivoting rules.

After five minutes. A beam of light shot out above the jade building once more. It took off into the sky. Not only could Yukon see it, but the entire American region and neighboring countries could as well.

In a sanctuary.

Eustace and Nadia were standing next to each other. When they saw the sky-rushing pillar of light in the direction of Yukon, they immediately shot up to the sky and looked at the great distance. They saw a radiant light shooting out from the jade building high up in the divine mountain of Yukon.

Nadia asked, “Why is that jade building glowing again, young master? What exactly is inside the structure?”

With a shake of his head, Eustace answered, “I‘m not certain!”

“The shape of the jade building is a little strange. I once felt a strong rule of spiritual energy inside, so I asked. But the answer was only that the jade building was located in a special place, which is suppressing the dragon blood of the formation eye. The rest appeared to be of little use.”

As he spoke, a second light flashed up in that jade building.

The third, fourth, and fifth…

It wasn’t until the seventh shot that it came to a halt. It was such a fantastic scene that even those powerful bigwigs outside the atmosphere witnessed it.

Unknown people speculated whether the Stoermer Sect had attacked Yukon. How could it have caused such a commotion otherwise?

The following moment. The situation abruptly shifted. A white pillar of air suddenly burst above mormtain ranges all over America.

These were common occurrences in the Wasteland. They were all ecstatic at the same time.

”It’s spiritual energy tide!”

“The tide of spiritual energy has erupted!”

Countless people bought houses and settled in some famous mountains and rivers before the spiritual energy, and a post on the internet even said that if the spiritual energy erupted again, most wouldn’t be in their original places, but second-tier famous mountains instead. And there was an expected ranking order.

Many people then left. As a result, it became rather depressing.

There was no movement in the so-called second-tier sanctuaries that were most likely to spray spiritual energy. It all happened in the same location.

The internet was also humming with activity. “Yukon Mountain sprayed!”

“Mount Dragon-Tiger sprayed as well!”

“Terra Mountain sprayed…”

”Who said Mount Drie wasn’t going to spray? Those evil real estate companies raised housing price speculations to $200,000 a unit, and now? They complained a set of two hundred thousand dollars is too expensive! ”

Those who purchased the so-called second-tier spiritual energy houses were all cursed.

Right now, the most ferocious curse was coming from Eustace.

He predicted with the Umbrella of Destiny that this spiritual energy spurt would last at least ten days. He also did not allow Nadia to immediately connect all the strongholds, implying that the formation was not perfect.

As a result, it erupted.
