Chapter 735 - Previous Alexander Sirius
"What?!" Exclaimed one of the G.o.ds with a loud voice. "This is ridiculous!"
The others understood why he would have such an exaggerated expression. All eyes met, asking the same question in their mind. The room fell into silence until one of them took the lead by asking the question out loud.
"What is that Golden Lightning? Is there anyone who knows about this?"
None of them uttered a single word afterward, not knowing a single thing about the Golden Lightning. This was the first time they saw a Golden Lightning Tribulation.
"Let"s just be honest. No one knows about this, right?" The purple-haired guy squinted, observing their expressions.
Everyone acknowledged without hesitation to advance the talk a bit faster.
"What are we going to do then? The fact that his tribulation is not normal than the others remains…"
"Indeed. Just looking at the strength of his tribulation, it"s already close to three times more powerful than a normal person. All of you geniuses who reached G.o.d Stage in your prime couldn"t even manage to trigger the Lightning Tribulation that strong. Even mine reached, at most, one and a half times stronger." The purple-haired man nodded.
"True enough. And if you look at his strength, I am sure he can fight a 3-Star Martial Saint equally. Do you remember how he destroyed the first three Lightning Strikes? He simply used his strength. If I am not wrong, his strength is most likely around thirty thousand Dragon, the standard of 3-Star Martial Saint."
"I doubted him first. I thought he was a Body Cultivator, but with the way he handled his weapons and his elements, I could say that he is both. He cultivates his body and Spiritual Energy perfectly. I also noticed that his intent is different than that of a Sword Intent or Spear Intent."
"Now that I think about it, no one in the world, even outside this world, would use two different weapons because there might be a clash between the two intents. However, I remember there was a certain person who managed to do that."
"Don"t tell me…" The G.o.ds and G.o.ddesses remembered a certain figure in their memory.
"Impossible. Are you saying that he is his inheritor?"
"But how about the s.p.a.ce Element? That one is closer to the Dungeon G.o.d, right?"
"Don"t ask me something I don"t know. This is just mere speculation of mine. Seeing how he used his Sword and Spear just reminded me of that person who helped us sealing this world"s strength."
"Are you talking about that person?"
"Who else that helped us? There was only a single person. For him, it was a mere help because he was coincidentally there, but it was a huge help for us."
If Alex or any of his group heard this, they would know that not only Alex saved Kyle and the Supreme in his previous life, he also helped this world as a whole.
On the other hand, these G.o.ds and G.o.ddesses had yet to believe that Alex was related to the Spirit G.o.d until one of them realized something was wrong.
"Now that I think about it, aren"t the people beside him weird? I am not talking about their behaviors. I am talking about their race."
"!!!" They widened their eyes. "You are right. They don"t feel like humans… I had once read everything about the Spirit G.o.d after he helped us. The Spirit G.o.d resided inside a world called Eulja, the house of Spirits. Though I never saw spirits with my own eyes, I don"t have any other explanations."
"But don"t the spirits have a non-human body?"
"In normal condition. But I believe there are high-ranking spirits, and all of them have a humanoid body. If he is related to the Spirit G.o.d, do you think they will let him alone with low ranking spirits?"
They couldn"t say anything since the answer was obvious.
"If he is related to the Spirit G.o.d, someone should greet him… No, we all should greet him. To think that the powerful Spirit G.o.d decided to have him train in this world, this is nothing but our honor." The purple-haired man nodded with a solemn expression.
"That"s right. Since he is undergoing his advancement, we can greet his wife first, so she can explain it to him."
They nodded in unison, knowing this might be the best thing to do. If one of them didn"t come, the other party might consider it rude. Knowing that the person they dealt with had a connection with the powerful Spirit G.o.d, they didn"t dare to treat it lightly.
"Is everyone ready?" The purple-haired man glanced at everyone"s expression before he created a Spatial Gate for them. "Let"s go then."
They nodded and followed him to the main tower.
…
Firia was still looking out for any potential enemies while waiting for Alex to wake up. She didn"t know what to do inside this tower anyway, so it was also useless to search around since Alex"s Spirit Eyes would be better to handle this type of situation.
Suddenly, a Spatial Gate that Alex used to create appeared out of nowhere. Firia frowned and released her Sacrificial Fire as a few people pa.s.sed through the portal, looking at her.
Her Divine Blazing Shawl immediately showed a reaction. Firia gritted her teeth, knowing that all of them were a divine being. Even though they were only souls, their power was still far stronger than she could imagine.
"Sister Xingzhi!" Firia screamed inwardly. She looked at these twenty people with anxiety. If there were only less than ten of them, Firia was sure they could do something about it. And yet twenty people emerged from the Spatial Gate.
There was no way Firia knew about their conversations before, and the sudden appearance made her feel the worse. It was normal for her to call for help instantly.
[I am working on it. Buy time for me. I will also summon the spirits.]
As soon as she said so, the ten spirits suddenly appeared around Alex while Firia regrouped with them.
"True Spirit Body!" The spirits used their ultimate technique without hesitation, raising their weapons while glaring at these people.
"Who are you?!" Anna shouted, trying to buy time.
"They are really spirits!" One of them exclaimed in surprise, looking at the un-human features that suddenly appeared on their bodies.
"!!!" Anna and the others were alarmed by the fact they knew about Spirits. There was no doubt anymore. In front of them were the G.o.ds and G.o.ddesses that knew something about the worlds around them.
Anya shouted. "Be ready to fight. We are leaving here. Our priority is Alex."
"Understood." They roared, releasing their Spiritual Energy.
Anya also summoned the Light and enhanced their power.
Suddenly, the purple-haired man scratched his cheek and said, "This is simply a misunderstanding. We don"t have any intention to fight. Please don"t leave."
The G.o.ds and G.o.ddesses circled them because they wanted to have them stay, so they could talk about their connection with the Spirit G.o.d.
However, Anna and the others couldn"t see anything other than a threat upon this action. Just like what the purple-haired man said, they misunderstood them. Due to the lack of information about this place, this type of misunderstanding was very normal.
"Ehm. This is really a misunderstanding. We only want to talk about something with you." The purple-haired man sighed, wondering how to convince them. Due to the lack of time, he couldn"t make a better plan to greet Alex. This was why many big influences preferred to have the opposite party send a notice if they wanted to come.
Unbeknownst to them, an object appeared above his head. It was a half-circle metallic made of pure gold. There was a single blue gemstone in the center of this metal, glowing in blue ocean color. Although it wasn"t on Alex"s head, this object looked like a majestic crown nonetheless.
On the other hand, Alex suddenly opened his eyes only to find himself trapped inside complete darkness. He looked left and right and realized that his feet didn"t even touch the ground. There was simply nothing here.
Suddenly, a white wisp appeared right in front of him before gradually turning into another him.
"Eh?!" Alex furrowed his eyebrows, wondering whether this person in front of him was really him.
His surprise didn"t stop there. The body in front of him suddenly opened its mouth and said, "Hi. Future me."
Alex widened his eyes and checked whether he heard it wrong or not. "Future me?"
"Haha… It really feels weird to see my own future self. As much as I want to talk with you, our time is limited. I myself also couldn"t stay like this for long because I don"t want to affect you. Before you ask anything, I will introduce myself first. I am Alexander Sirius, your previous life. That"s right. People know me as the Spirit G.o.d."
Astonishment filled his heart, never expecting to hear something like this. "This must be an illusion."
"It"s normal to be confused. However, believe me first because there is not much time. The guys outside misunderstand something, and a battle might break out any moment." The past Alex raised his hand, creating a screen that let him see the outside situation where the spirits activated their True Spirit Body.
"This…"
"I am here just to tell you that I am going to borrow your body for a minute or two.?After that, I will disappear. I don"t want to affect your judgment or anything because of me since I am supposed to be dead. There is something I want to convey to the others for one last time.
"And I can appear here because I have sealed myself inside this technique called Spirit Crown. It"s basically the ultimate technique that symbolizes you as the ruler of the spirits. I won"t talk much about it, since you should also get the knowledge about it from this time Golden Lightning Tribulation.
"If you want to talk more with me, you will know how to do it when you receive the knowledge from the Divine Tribulation. Whether you are going to meet me or not, it will be up to your choice. If my mission is completed, I will soon disperse and have no connection with you anymore.
"However, I would like to request one thing. I believe they have overcome my death and fall in love with you… Well, it"s from your memory though. I want you to love them and care about them without me influencing you.
"They have said it to you before. You are you. No matter how big I was in the past, you should choose what you want to do. I will only provide you with knowledge, along with other things. Whether you want to do it or not, it"s up to you.
"Of course, this is different from them. They are the most amazing women in this universe and will always be for me. I think you also feel the same way, right? Even more so with Firia, Alicia, and Sherry. That"s why if you truly fall in love with them, please don"t differentiate them just because they were my wife in the past. That"s my only request."
Alex was stupefied with this sudden speech. He never thought that the previous him was a bit chatty like this. However, he also felt the concern in his eyes and expression. Hence, he replied to him with his sincerest answer. "You have said it yourself. I am not you, and I live in the present. The past won"t matter. I will only strive for a better future."
The past Alex smiled. "Ah, I really want to talk more with you, albeit this is the limit. I am going to borrow your body for a while before disappearing. It can also be the last farewell for all of them because I will hide this memory so that the system won"t be able to record this conversation. Thank you in advance."
Without waiting for Alex to reply, the previous Alex had occupied Alex"s body as he said.
"All of you can stop now. They are not our enemies. Little Leoz! When are you going to become a scholar?"
"!!!"
