The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3121
“Even another sect leader couldn’t kill the Blood Cult’s ancestor in a one-on-one fight Did he just barge into the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation?”
Someone said, “It wasn’t him. It was Alex Rockefeller…”
Someone immediately recounted the event. In that instant, everyone fell silent.
This incident was too bizarre and beyond their perception. More petty people would still be powerless, the infallible truth to deity-tier powerhouses, but they had united and killed a sect leader, and that made no sense.
“The problem is Alex Rockefeller.”
“Never mind. There is a great shortcoming with his fighting style. We don’t have to be afraid of their concentrated attack as long as we are fast.”
The crowd also had the same idea. They even ignored the warning issued by Alex and continued doing their deeds. Currently, breaking Pompeii’s force field was their most pressing issue.
Someone said, “What I’m most worried about is that the Blood Cult’s ancestor has deep connections to the Witch Cult. Rumor has it that the ancestor of the Blood Cult is actually the son of the great warlock, Ludwik Gerstner. That old demon, Ludwik Gerstner, is lawless, and his greed knows no bounds. The trouble would be great if he received the news and came over here. He may even take his anger out on us.”
As soon as that man said that, everyone’s heart skipped a beat.
The Witch Cult was notorious in the universe, and no one dared to offend those people. They were just like a kennel of mad dogs, employing extremely ruthless methods while never following the rules.
“Once the ancestor of the Blood Cult dies, Ludwik Gerstner will know about it for sure. I’m afraid this incident will really happen, so we better hurry and break Pompeii’s force field. We should hurry and go our separate ways once we find opportunities and fortunes.”
***
Alex did not know that he had joined forces with someone else and killed an evil demon.
This man was the real head of the Blood Cult. He was involved with the Witch Cult.
He went to look for Dorothy right away.
Dorothy was with her children. Although she left them as soon as they were born, she met them a few times later. However, the mother and the children were closely related.
That kind of kinship could not be broken. The more Xienna wanted to keep Dorothy away from them, the more she missed them.
The spouses understood each other without words at that moment as they reunited after a long absence.
Spring stood up and said, “Dad, I’ll leave Mom to you. Summer, Autumn, Winter, let’s go and play with Aunt. Don’t interrupt Dad and Mom.”
Spring’s sounded like an adult. Winter was unwilling. “Why do we have to go? I’m not leaving. I want to play with Mom.”
Spring said, “Winter, you are really ignorant. Dad and Mom are going to do some shameful deeds together, so several kids like us can’t disturb them from the sidelines.”
Alex and Dorothy were stunned. They never expected Spring to know something like that at a young age.
Winter was bewildered. “What is a shameful deed? I want to do some shameful deeds together too.”
“Oh my! You can’t do it! You are still a kid!” Spring yanked Winter and explained in a crisp voice, “They are going to give birth to our younger siblings. No one can look at them from the sidelines, or else they won’t be born. Do you understand?”
Alex was puzzled. Dorothy was perplexed.
Winter immediately nodded. “I understand! I don’t want to become the younger brother. I want to become the elder brother. Dad, Mom, I won’t peek at you. You have to hear me a younger sister. I’ll go out and play for a while. I’ll come and play with my younger sister when I’m done.”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3122
Right after the four children left, the scene quietened.
Looking at Dorothy, Alex somehow felt something seemed different. “Where is Xienna Stoermer? She didn’t give you a hard time, did she?”
Dorothy did not answer that question, but she said, “We haven’t met for so long. Do you miss me?”
“I do!”
“Why don’t you come and hug me then?”
This woman should be his wife, and there was no mistake. She would occasionally act cute like a spoiled child and ask for a hug.
Without hesitation, Alex stepped up and held her firmly. Smelling her scent, he floundered her perfect skin with his large hands, the sensation of which couldn’t have felt better.
“Honey, your figure seems to have changed!”
“What? Could it be that postpartum body?”
“Stay calm. It’s getting better. Look, there is a lot of flesh here with a two-size increment. It is also very bouncy…”
“Jeez. We’re outside. Why are you so rude? The children are still over there!”
“Didn’t they just leave?”
‘Holy crap!’
Four small heads poked out of the tree in front of them while staring at them with widened eyes. Their faces were filled with curiosity, so they probably wanted to know how the younger sister would be born.
Alex slapped his forehead with his hand. “I think these wimpy brats need to be taught a lesson.”
Like a hen protecting her chicks, Dorothy knitted her beautiful brows. “You dare?! Aren’t they a little too cute? I’ll beat you up if you dare to hit them.”
“Sigh. A loving mother will have spoiled children…”
“Get lost! You still have another child, so you don’t love them dearly. I’ll love the children that I gave birth to!” Dorothy said as she ran toward the children.
“Hey! Why are you leaving? What about bearing to the younger sister? We haven’t even started yet!”
“To hell with that! I’m satisfied with four children!”
Indeed, she was making a fuss about it. But didn’t he just say something perfectly normal? As a result, his initial euphoria from missing her was diminished. Whom should he reason with, then?
Well, nothing could be done.
Alex couldn’t help but go over.
Winter walked back and forth as if he was looking for something, but he ended up failing to find it. Sounding disappointed, he said, “Where is the younger sister? Where is my younger sister?”
“Your younger sister isn’t born yet!”
Alex said, “Your mother said she doesn’t want to give birth, and neither does she want your younger sister.”
Winter immediately cried and knelt on the ground, refusing to get up. Wailing, he insisted on having a younger sister. Dorothy couldn’t help but pick him up. “If I have your younger sister, then I won’t be able to hug you in the future. I’ll only hug her. Your toys and snacks will have to be given to her. Do you want that?”
Winter thought for a long while. Pointing at his brother, he said childishly, “An older brother’s toys should be given to his baby sister.”
The wimpy brat already knew so much.
Dorothy said, “I can give you a sister in the future, but I have something cooler that is more fun. Do you want to see it?”
“Mom? What is the fun thing?”
“Is it a car?”
“I want Super Wings!”
“Super Wings are no fun. I want a flying sword…”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3123
When Dorothy waved her hand and summoned a phoenix from the sky, the four children looked up with their mouths agape.
Whoosh!
The phoenix was burning with fire. That fire also displayed grace and beauty.
Spring was a little afraid. “Will I be roasted?”
Dorothy said, “Of course not. Look, she is very gentle.”
She reached out and summoned a mass of phoenix flame. She then placed it on her palm and gently fiddled with it. The dancing flame on her palm turned into a small phoenix, skipping around her fingertips like a cute elf.
The kids jumped in excitement, clamoring to play with it.
Dorothy did not let them down. Everyone received a mass of flame that moved around their hands and randomly encircled them without burning them at all.
Alex was amazed. “Your phoenix looks like a living body,” he said to Dorothy.
Dorothy said, “You thought she’s fake? She’s real. Her name is Lecia. I obtained her from the Phoenix Sect. When I first found her, she was almost breathing her last. She has been following me since.”
“The Phoenix Sect?”
Alex remembered it. The Plenilune Sect, where his senior was currently located, was founded by a Stoermer Sect empress with a secret to hide. There was a secret teleportation portal in the Plenilune Sect that could teleport one to the Phoenix Sect.
In that case, it should be the same sect.
At that moment, Dorothy flew the four children onto the back of the fiery phoenix, Lecia, with a wave of her hand. When Alex saw that, he certainly could not fall behind.
Consequently, Lecia warned him by staring at him with a pair of fiery eyes, not allowing him to ride her.
“Oh my! You’re rebelling, aren’t you?! Do you know who I am?” I am her man. If you don’t let me ride you, you won’t be able to enter the gates of the Rockefeller family. You know what? Yukon, where you are located right now, is also mine. Not only did you fail to please me, but you even drove me away. Are you stupid?”
Dorothy helplessly said, “Lecia is still young. Why do you bother to argue with it?”
Then, she whispered a few words while patting the phoenix.
Only then did Lecia not target Alex anymore. She turned her head sideways and indifferently watched Alex walking up to her back before she spread her wings and flew high.
In Alex’s eyes, flying in the sky was no longer a novelty.
The kids were the ones having the most fun.
Alex sat next to Dorothy and wrapped his arm around her slim waist as he asked, “What about your previous incarnation? Did she not come out and make trouble this time?”
Dorothy shook her head and said, “She didn’t come.”
“Didn’t come? What do you mean?” Alex was clearly startled for a moment.
“When she was in the Phoenix Sect, something happened. A great accident occurred, and then she left my body.”
“She left?” Alex smiled. “It’s good that accident happened. If it didn’t, how would she have left your body? That fellow should have left long ago. That matter is from the previous life. She can’t always hog the present body. Don’t you think so?”
“Don’t say that. I think she is quite pitiful.”
“Pitiful, my a*s! Right after you were done giving birth to the children, she dragged your weak body and ran away without even feeding the children with a mouthful of milk. Is this called pitiful? It serves her right.”
Alex was angry when he recalled various past incidents.
Dorothy said, “You can’t say that. She was a pure and noble woman before the awakening of her soul. As soon as she woke up, she found herself giving birth to children, something unbearable to any woman. Besides, I have heard her story. Aren’t you sorry for her?”
“How is she pitiful?”
“She is Xienna Stoermer. In her first life, she was framed and pushed into the Pool of Reincarnation. Before that, she was cursed so her soul would not be reincarnated and would keep wandering in the passage of reincarnation. Eventually, the God-slaying Sword cut her into pieces in the passage of reincarnation before she reincarnated.”
Alex frowned. “That’s quite miserable.”
Dorothy went on, “Her soul was incomplete and her memories were cut into multiple parts. She had forgotten many things, but she had a lover. That lover was a fixation that couldn’t be erased in her mind. Even the God-slaying Sword couldn’t sever it. She kept trying to retrieve her memories. For those reasons, she had to be reincarnated seven times, and she had to suffer the anguish of the Flesh Grinder every time.”
Alex asked, “What is a Flesh Grinder?”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3124
Dorothy said, “Each time she reincarnates, she had to keep some of the memories retrieved with great difficulty. Hence, she couldn’t take the normal path during her reincarnation. Once she took the path in the Land of Ghosts, her memories would be cut. Thus, she took another path, but she had to suffer the pain of being crushed by a grinder.”
The grinder referred to the so-called Flesh Grinder. Alex had never been to the Land of Ghosts, and he didn’t know the specific situation over there. However, he felt extremely pained just by hearing that. He glanced at the four children. Fortunately, Dorothy had told him all those terrifying things via telepathy and not in front of the children.
“Xienna’s memories were cut into several pieces when she first fell into the Pool of Reincarnation. Which part was yours?” asked Alex.
“When it comes to me, it’s the final part,” Dorothy said. “But the worst thing was that Xienna once lost something when she encountered the Flesh Grinder in the passage of reincarnation. It’s the token of love between her and that man. She… Couldn’t remember his face. It may be the effect of the curse, or the God-slaying Sword. Or, perhaps it was the side effect of going through the Flesh Grinder too many times.”
“What?”
Dorothy leaned gently on Alex. “Hubby, do you understand such a feeling?”
“… I do! I was really in pain once Xienna severed our the thread of destiny at that time.”
Alex hugged Dorothy and sighed lightly. “She had experienced such events, yet she wanted to force you to undergo such pain with your body. Was this considered her revenge, or was it retribution? Her affection was ever-lasting, but was there any point she kept searching like that?”
Dorothy shook her head. “I don’t know. She finds a point in that, perhaps.”
Currently, she still remembered the heart-wrenching cry Xienna let out when she acquired the scattered reincarnated souls and retrieved her memories. She had in fact lost the face of the most important man.
Alex said, “I’m also touched by her persistence, but I’m worried. What if she really finds that man one day, only to discover that his soul had long scattered to oblivion? Or, that man has long forgotten her, reincarnated and formed another family… There are lots of uncertainties!”
One more thing, she came from the Stoermer Sect. Her lover was most likely someone from the Stoermer Sect, but now, the Stoermer Sect is in ruins and people are already…”
Having said that, Alex remembered it.
‘Not everyone is gone yet. Isn’t the female statue the Highness of the Stoermer Sect still around? Go find her!’
“Let’s go. I’ll take you to someone. Perhaps she can give us an answer.”
Dorothy asked, “Who?”
Alex said, “Someone who probably knows Xienna Stoermer.”
***
Alex and his friends found Phoenix Rowan riding on Lecia, the fiery phoenix who was on top of the mountain, looking somewhere far away. She did not even show any response to the arrival of Alex’s family.
After the conversation with Ignatius, she had given it a lot of thought.
“Hey, female stat… Senior!” Alex almost shouted “female statue”.
Phoenix turned around. “I’m not the female stat.”
Alex looked slightly embarrassed. “Senior, I haven’t thanked you formally for the previous incident.”
Phoenix shook her head. “You don’t have to thank me. I’ll be happy enough if you don’t hate me.”
“What do you mean?” Alex froze for a moment. He somehow felt that there was an overtone in her words.
Did he just unconsciously open a can of worms?
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3125
“With great power comes great responsibility. Luck is closely related to fate. It is not easy for all the luck of the universe to be pressed on you. When fate comes after you, you will understand that you will find joy in the ordinary.”
After Phoenix finished her speech, Shelly inside Alex’s mind palace also said, “Yes. How blissful it is to be ordinary.”
The Mystic Maiden lamented, “It’s a bliss to become ordinary.”
After thinking for a while, Alex gently shook his head. “I don’t know what you guys have experienced, but I don’t think so. If a calamity shows up, the ordinary will be passive, which means they are incapable of resisting. What is fate? Nowadays, even a three year old will say, ‘I am the master of my fate’. What’s so good about being ordinary? If one wants to be extraordinary, he has to become the strongest and the pillar of the family to shelter his loved ones from trials and hardships and guard the ordinary with his extraordinary ability.”
The Mystic Maiden stopped talking. Shelly too, did not speak anymore.
Phoenix said, “Perhaps this is what makes you special.”
Alex stopped discussing the topic.
Dorothy told Lecia, the phoenix, to play with the four children. Then, she faced Phoenix and said, “Senior, I heard that you were from the Stoermer Sect a long time ago. I have a small question to ask you. Senior, please answer truthfully.”
Phoenix replied indifferently. “Just ask me.”
Dorothy asked, “Senior, have you heard of someone named Xienna Stoermer from the Stoermer Sect?”
Phoenix’s eyes looked strange. “Why are you asking about Xienna Stoermer?”
Alex said, “We have something crucial that we need to clarify.”
Phoenix said, “Alright. I definitely wouldn’t want to mention this name in the past, but someone in front of me has mentioned this woman today. Perhaps I can tell you something.”
Dorothy was shocked. “Someone mentioned Xienna Stoermer to you today?”
“That’s right! You should know that man. It’s Ignatius Rowan who came with you.”
“Huh..?”
“Speaking of them, this is something from the distant past. I wonder what you wish to ask. How do you guys know the name, Xienna Stoermer? If I’m not wrong, that person only appeared ten millennia ago.”
Dorothy pointed to herself. “I am the reincarnation of… Xienna Stoermer.”
Phoenix was puzzled. “You’re Xienna Stoermer?”
Alex said, “It’s a long story.”
Phoenix said, “Never mind. I’m free today. You can take your time and tell me.”
After that, the conversation lasted for a full hour. Eventually, Alex asked, “We wish to know the identity o Xienna Stoermer’s lover.”
Phoenix said, “I think it’d be best for Ignatius to answer that question of yours.”
Shortly afterward, Ignatius came over.
After learning everything, Ignatius stared shockingly at Dorothy. “You are the reincarnation of Xienna Stoermer? No wonder I always feel that you give a sense of familiarity.”
They both appeared together previously, but in fact, they did not know each other well. They met at the Phoenix Sect. At that time, they both were in a hurry to reach Yukon.
He then said, “The lover of Xienna Stoermer is Dimitri Rockefeller. Speaking of the two of them, their emotional entanglement ran deep. Not only was it inseverable, but it was also messed up. That love triangle gave me a headache.”
“Huh? Why would there be a love triangle?” Alex was astonished.
“Oh my… Uncle Alex, you both have Rockefeller as your last name. If Dimitri were to possess half of your ability to pick up girls, many incidents wouldn’t have happened. Xienna Stoermer is an extremely jealous woman. She couldn’t tolerate other women in her eyes, but Dimitri was handsome and countless women threw themselves at him. More importantly, nothing had happened between them and Dimitri, but she ran away from home angrily. Then, she accidentally fell into a time void and was locked for dozens of millennia. If it weren’t for my father, she wouldn’t have come out…”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3127
“How about you? Do you intend to leave?”
Ignatius said, “Back then, misfortune befell the Rowan family because of me. My mom went to the nether realm to find me, but now, the question still remains whether she is dead or alive. I have to find her. I need to see her alive, and I want to see her soul if she is dead.”
Alex saw a fearless determination in his eyes. He did not persuade Ignatius any further. Alex could understand his choice. If it were him, he would’ve done the same too.
“Alright! I promise you!” Alex nodded vigorously.
Ignatius left. He was utterly decisive, just like his emergence.
During the parting, Alex gave him a ring that contained several Buddhist talismans. The nether realm was the place where Ksitigarbha once stayed. The talismans made of divine power should be somewhat useful.
***
Under Mount Yukon, there were still many foreigners. Although many experts had joined forces and searched the secret realm of the sanctuary on Pompeii Fairyland, Yukon was still the top priority. The people of each force were placed in this area.
Just then, someone came down from Yukon. It was Lorelei and Nebula who had recovered from their injuries.
They both were awe-inspiring goddesses. As soon as the two women appeared, all the people at the foot of the mountain moved anxiously and observed them.
Lorelei forwardly said, “I’ll give you guys five minutes to leave the range of Mount Yukon. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences.”
The two women left right after saying that.
The foreigners looked at each other in dismay.
“What did they mean?”
“Do they want us to leave with just a few words? Do they really think they are ancient empresses?”
“I’m not leaving anyway. I heard that Alex Rockefeller had summoned people to Yukon. He’s trying to tell us to make way. We won’t leave. Let’s see what they are up to.”
Consequently, none of the people in the group left.
Five minutes passed.
At that moment, the spell formation in Yukon glowed violently. Immediately afterward, four long swords with overwhelming lethal intent flew out.
“Ahhh!!!”
“These are the Immortal-slaying Swords! The Immortal-slaying Sword Formation has emerged!”
“D*mn! They actually mobilized the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation to take down minors like us! Run!!!”
It was too late.
The activation of the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation this round was a once-off performance. It was a display of punishment that would serve as a warning to others. What was needed were the repercussions. It was because the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation could no longer be used after this round. The energy of the four divine swords was exhausted, and it could not be recovered without another ten millennia of accumulation.
Poof! Poof! Poof!
The scene was wholly drowned with rolling human heads. It was a bloodbath.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3128
“Ahhhh!”
“Save me! Save me..!”
The group of foreigners shrieked and wailed at the foot of Mount Yukon, but the massacre continued with an unstoppable bloodbath.
The Immortal-slaying Sword Formation unleashed its strongest attack. Each sword swished and reaped lives. They died right on the spot, no matter who the comer was.
Up in the Yukon Sanctuary, Phoenix perched at the top of the mountain and was commanding the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation. Consequently, the massacre ended in the blink of an eye.
She looked at Alex. “Never have I expected that you would have such a profound accomplishment in these outer space runes! It seems that you really have amazing luck!”
When Phoenix acted against those people at the foot of the mountain earlier, Alex also helped her. He had altered the Thousand Flag Formation and allowed the Immortal-slaying Sword Formation to encircle those people in a split second.
Otherwise, the Immortal-slaying Sword wouldn’t have killed those people at all due to insufficient power and the failure of the sword spirit to bear the heavy burden from the overconsumption.
Alex said, “I wasn’t expecting someone like you to be giving out compliments.”
Phoenix glanced at him. “I’m someone who speaks the truth. It’s your gift that you possess such an ability, but it is also a fact that you’ve stolen my stuff.”
“Uhm…” Alex blushed.
When he recalled having stripped off her statue, he couldn’t argue with her. Who would have thought that a statue would come to life? Under normal circumstances, no one would’ve thought of it!
He changed the subject. “I have heard a lot of rumors about your father, but the details are still unclear. The last I heard was that the great Genbu had gone to some sort of abyss to find a way to defeat the Undying Clan. It has been three millennia since, and no one has heard of a word from them. Is it what everyone is thinking, then? In fact, they have failed, haven’t they?”
Phoenix fell silent as her eyes darkened. Eventually, she sighed.
“It’s only half a year away from the three year period that the great Genbu mentioned. Half a year later, the force field he built with his life will lose its effect. When the time comes, the Undying Clan will invade on a large scale. Do you have a way?” asked Alex.
Phoenix said, “You have the way.”
Alex was startled. “How can it be me?”
Phoenix said, “Didn’t I tell you before? With great power comes great responsibility. You are the bearer of luck in this universe- The pointer of fate is targeted at you, and a catastrophe will be inevitable. And, those who are closest to you will be dragged into this vortex. You’ve also had realizations before. You can only protect those you want to protect if you are strong enough. Since you are the seed, the following preparations will be tailored for you then.”
Alex asked, “What else is there to prepare? The spiritual energy tide has already ended.”
Phoenix shook her head. “That’s just the beginning! The Beast King Pool is going to be opened in seven days. I’ll take you there when the time comes.”
Alex frowned slightly.
He had to leave again after seven days…
He planned to settle down here initially, so he had made many preparations. Moreover, he had sent out the call of Ksitigarbha’s Ten Wheels Earth Incantation.
Then, at that moment, Shelly’s voice rang in his ears. “If it’s really the Beast King Pool, then it will be a once in a lifetime opportunity.”
Alex asked her via telepathy, “Do you know about the Beast King Pool?”
Just as Shelly wanted to answer him, Phoenix suddenly shot divine light out of her eyes and stared intently at Alex’s forehead before she asked softly, “Who is inside your mind palace?”
Shelly immediately kept quiet and stopped talking.
Alex replied, “No… There is no one.”
Phoenix snorted coldly. “You still have the audacity to lie through your teeth in front of me? If you are unwilling to tell me, I’ll go in and see for myself.”
Whoosh!
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3129
Phoenix suddenly lurched and turned into a stream of light before she rushed into Alex’s mind palace.
“Oh my! There are quite a few people!”
Not only was Shelly in front of Phoenix, but Ancestor Bodhi and the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens were also there. The few never expected that Phoenix would force itself into Alex’s mind palace without his consent.
Alex was afraid that she would start a fight inside, so he also rushed in.
Phoenix looked at Shelly as she smiled. “I was wondering who it was. I should have thought of it long ago. This brat has divine power all over his body. Other than you, Rachel Lockhart, no one else could have taught him!”
Alex’s eyes widened.
‘What’s going on? These two people are acquainted, and Rachel Lockhart.. Is that Shelly’s real name?’
Shelly was enraged. “Who are you scolding? Who is Rachel? Do you think everyone else is as blind and reckless as you? How did it turn out? Miserable, right? You only have one soul remnant left. You couldn’t even deal with some trash and had to get my disciple for help. Let me ask you. Do you blush? Are you ashamed? Don’t say you are acquainted with me in the future.”
Phoenix sneered, “I was acquainted with a coward like you just because I was blind.”
“You ain’t blind! You are foolish!”
“You are the foolish one! You are a dumba*s!”
“You are a dumb bird!”
Alex, Ancestor Bodhi, and the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens looked at each other in dismay as they found it unbelievable.
These two women were extremely powerful existences who once commanded great respect, but unexpectedly, they were quarreling like kindergarten kids right now. Just as everyone was worried that these women would engage in a rough fight, there was a dramatic turn of events…
Phoenix hugged Shelly. “Rachel, I thought both your body and soul had perished long ago. You are neither a vegan woman nor recite Buddhist mantras, so why stick to the Siddhartha realm? You are so timid and capable of running away, yet you’re in this state for Buddhism’s sake?! You are worse than me!”
Shelly snorted and pushed her away. “Stop being close to me. I recognized you long ago, but I didn’t want to care about you.”
Phoenix, furious, pointed at Alex as she said, “Rachel, do you believe I will tell him about all your secrets?”
Shelly was puzzled. Shelly felt anxious at once. “You dare?!”
Everyone was curious and wondered what Shelly’s secret was.
However, when the two women talked about that, they seemed to have stopped. They also didn’t mention any secrets again.
Phoenix sized up the space in Alex’s mind palace. Many aspects here surprised her, like the self-renewing soil, Ancestral Bodhi Tree, Chaos Tree, and Persephone’s Folly Bridge. Each one required someone with great luck to possess, yet Alex alone could possess so many.
Phoenix began to suspect Alex’s origin. Such fortunes were unlikely to appear on an ordinary man.
Whoosh!
Phoenix left Alex’s mind palace. She told him, “You have seven days to deal with your current affairs! I’ll find you after seven days!”
She returned to the shrine in Yukon Sanctuary and glanced a few times at the statue that Alex had disguised. She then turned into a stream of light and disappeared from the place.
“Hey. Wait You promised to help me open the great Genbu’s space.” Alex quickly chased after her when he remembered that matter.
Phoenix’s voice was heard. “You are now strong enough to open that door by yourself. Why do you still need my help?”
“Huh? I can do it?” Alex was slightly uncertain, so he hurriedly tried to touch that door.
The lotuses inside his body swayed, and laws vibrated. The force field door, which he had failed to open all the time, was opened slowly at that time.
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3130
‘lt’s open! It opened so easily!’
‘Could it be that my cultivation level has already reached Immortalization?’
Alex was uncertain as to how he could define his cultivation level. Anyway, he was different from the others. Nonetheless, it was a great joy that he could open the force field.
“Bubbles! My daughter! You’ve been here for so long… Are you doing alright?”
Alex stepped in with one foot.
The scene before him seemed a little familiar at a glance.
Wasn’t this the first stop, the small village Shado Rivers entered with him when he first set foot into this strange world?
This place was a small village of the Naga tribe, which consisted of the high priestess, the village chief, honest, brave villagers, and young, lively and adorable young Naga children. However, this village was destroyed during the invasion of the Undying Clan back then, leaving only ruins behind at present.
It had been long since the village was uninhabitable for the Naga folks.
‘Daughter, and also Lena, where are you guys?’ Alex muttered to himself as he looked up to the sky.
In the next instance, he abruptly jumped and flew up. He was floating in the sky. He quickly flew over after identifying a certain direction.
‘Huh? It’s not right?!’
Alex only set off for five seconds before he turned back. Alex could see things more clearly since he was at a higher altitude. Alex noticed a large open area in the middle of the village as if there was something on it. When he turned back and took a closer look, he realized he was right, as expected. A paragraph of texts was left there.
This paragraph of texts was left to him by Lena Rivers. She thought that Alex would probably search for this village if he came over, hence she left a few words on the ground. They were to inform Alex that their current location was the same spot where he once met the great Genbu to go over if he read them.
Alex was overjoyed after reading the texts. It was great that he finally had a direction.
He was almost unbound by the laws here with his present cultivation base.
When the great Genbu handed this secret realm to him, it was actually equivalent to giving him ownership of the secret realm. It was bound to him, and all the permission was unlocked just for him too. There was only one prerequisite, he had to be beyond Immortalization.
Whoosh!
Be it Instant Teleportation, Imperial Sword Flight, or flying in the air, it was totally not an issue in this realm. Alex found the place Lena wrote soon after.
It was the end of the Dead Zone.
Alex recalled that he had spent endless effort in order to meet the great Genbu at the end of the Dead Zone back then. He even needed Lena to escort him all the way. For that reason, he had to impregnate Lena and instill his aura in her body.
But now, none of these laws were restrictive.
From a journey that would’ve taken at least a few days, it only took a few hours now. Moreover, it was easy and enjoyable.
‘Over there!’
Alex instantly discovered an enormous undersea palace at the end of the Endless Sea. The Naga folks could be seen everywhere there.
Alex was slightly puzzled.
Wasn’t he told that only Lena could’ve come to this place? Why would there be so many Naga people?
Was it the water pressure?
While dwelling on that thought, Alex suddenly noticed that the pressure on the ocean floor was not as powerful as before.
Smack!
Whoosh!
Two Naga people who were in charge of patrol noticed Alex. They immediately turned into sharp arrows and quickly flew over.
“Stop right there. Who are you? Where did you…”
When a Naga member spoke halfway through, he was pulled by the other member. Then, he immediately knelt down and exclaimed respectfully, “Lord Saint, you… You are back?”
Only then did the other member finally come to his senses and hurriedly knelt down to greet him.
“Get up! Get up!”
The Pinnacle of Life Chapter 3126
Phoenix’s curiosity was piqued. She tattled next to him, “Why was our father involved?”
Ignatius said, “You probably aren’t well aware when it comes to this matter because you were just a wimpy brat wearing diapers at the time of the incident. Back then, it was earth-shattering…”
“Alright. Stop showing off and say it quickly.” Alex patted Ignatius on the back of his head.
Knowing that he was Jade’s adopted son, Alex felt a sense of affinity for this man.
Phoenix glared at Alex. “He is my brother. Who allowed you to hit him?”
“Huh..?”
The seniority was really messed up. If one calculated starting from Jade, Alex was Jade’s disciple, and he and Ignatius were peers. However, when the poisoned Ignatius stayed at the Rockefellers’, he addressed Maya and Waltz as aunts. That said, wouldn’t Alex then equate to becoming his uncle?
If one were to calculate starting from the fact that he was the eldest son of the Rowan family, it would then be impossible to figure it out.
“I didn’t hit him. I just touched him gently. Jeez… A woman like you won’t be able to understand the communication between men.” said Alex. Then, he urged Ignatius to have a serious talk. The incident of Xienna being locked for dozens of millennia would’ve been a mind-boggling tale.
Ignatius said, “That happened more than ten millennia ago. Back then, my dad and several friends were being hunted by a few kings of the nether realm and entered the turbulent void. They then encountered the tide of void beasts… That scene was absolutely shocking.”
Dorothy asked, “You haven’t seen it before with your own eyes, haven’t you?”
Ignatius said, “I haven’t seen the Memory Crystal!”
Phoenix said, “Don’t interrupt. Go on.”
“Alright. Those void beasts were troublesome creatures. And that legion of beasts consisted of at least tens of millions of void beasts. The moment someone gets caught in it, he would die for sure. Anyways, they fled along any path they could stumble upon and bumped into the entrance of the time ruin. Oh, by the way, that time ruin has a pretty decent name, called Eternalis.”
“Something called the Time Blade lies within it.”
“That’s the killer blade of youth!”
“If one gets slashed by the Time Blade, a kid will become a middle-aged man, a middle-aged man will become an old man, and an old man will be gone right away.”
“Back then, Xienna Stoermer also encountered the entrance of the time ruin after running away from home. She fell into it and couldn’t get out. After my dad and the rest entered it later, they met Xienna by chance. Then, they went to great lengths to come out of it together with her. However, do you guys know what happened to Dimitri Rockefeller in between?”
Dorothy asked, “Dimitri found a new lover, didn’t he?”
Ignatius gave a thumbs up. “As expected of high emotional intelligence, you’re spot on. But I think Dimitri couldn’t help it. Didn’t Xienna run away from home and go missing at that time? After Dimitri learned about the situation, he certainly wanted to find her, but he went in the wrong direction and headed to the Evil Forest. After that, Dimitri miserably found that he was caught in a war between the elven races and was seriously injured. When he was unconscious in the elven war, a woman saved him. Then, he and that woman escaped to the Evil Forest for a hundred years. What could ’ve possibly happened throughout that century that he was stuck with her through thick and thin? There are simply just too many of them! That’s when Xienna discovered that Dimitri really had another woman when she returned.”
After he finished, he then added, “Xienna Stoermer really had no chance of winning against that woman.”
Phoenix asked, “Why? Didn’t Xienna sacrifice a lot for that man?”
Ignatius said, “But, that woman was gentle, amiable, sensible, and generous. Xienna Stoermer… Was over self-willed. She’s also a very jealous woman…”
Dorothy tried comparing Xienna to herself and found it unlikely to be a jealous woman. She had allowed Alex to marry a few concubines.
Alex asked, “Where is Dimitri Rockefeller right now?”
“How would I know that? I’ve reincarnated several times! When that d*mn guy threw Xienna and me into the Pool of Reincarnation, he cast a curse on us so that we couldn’t be reincarnated. I was slashed by the God-slaying Sword more than a dozen times! D*mn it, it really hurt!”
A sudden whim struck Alex. “So, did you experience the pain of the Flesh Grinder too?”
Ignatius’s eyes were bloodshot. “Uncle Alex. I was so miserable! That d*mn bast*rd better not let me catch him! Otherwise, I will skin him for sure!”
It was then that they all managed to understand the context.
At that moment, Ignatius said, “Uncle Alex, I’d like to ask you a favor.”
Alex said, “Pray, tell.”
Ignatius said, “I’d like to ask for your kind help to take care of my mom and my sister… She is currently a remnant soul. Her messed up body probably won’t be able to last long.”
