Chapter 838 - Isekai-ed Again?
Outside the planet, Zark was supposed to bring Alex to Eulja, but he suddenly found a s.p.a.ce Disturbance pa.s.sing the planet.
"This is…" Zark opened his mouth in surprise. He then lifted his head and looked at the horizon. "If I am not wrong, there is a Black Hole in this direction, but I believe it"s very far from here, so how can there be a s.p.a.ce Disturbance, especially when Master is ascending? I think Master was swallowed as that thing is bringing him somewhere… I will check it first then."
As much as he wanted to figure this problem out, he tried to follow the s.p.a.ce Disturbance and found it arriving at a certain planet. He took another look at it and noticed s.p.a.ce Element coming from another direction that seemed to lead him to another one.
"There are two planets connecting with each other? But this planet is a Lower World while the other one is an Upper… No, Divine World." Zark furrowed his eyebrows. "I can"t go inside to the world where Master is, but I can infiltrate the Divine World. Should I go or should I retreat and report?"
However, he found another problem with the Divine World and decided to retreat to Eulja.
Inside the castle, specifically Lin Xingzhi"s room, where she used to control the system, two women were talking happily as they met again but ended up stopping when they realized Alex"s condition.
Zark pushed open the door while sweating as he looked at the two women. "There is a problem."
"I can see it." Lin Xingzhi nodded but laughed in the end as she said, "To think he will experience the same thing again. Pfft!"
"Milady, I believe the situation not as you think." Zark shook his head with a serious expression.
"What do you mean?" Firia asked, starting to get a bit concerned with Alex.
"Master is going to another world due to the s.p.a.ce Disturbance, but I believe this s.p.a.ce Disturbance is caused by the connection it has to another world."
"Another world? Does this Lower World have a connection to another world?"
"Yes. And it"s the Divine World."
"Oh?!" Lin Xinghzhi"s cheerful smile disappeared as she narrowed her eyes.
"And if it"s only a normal Divine World, I can simply brush it off. Then I remember another thing."
"And that is…"
"The Divine World is where Lady Alicia trains."
"Devil World?" Lin Xingzhi and Firia exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes. I have rechecked the connection, and it"s indeed strong enough to cross outer s.p.a.ce and arrive at that world."
Firia looked at Lin Xingzhi. "Sister Xingzhi, I think you sent Alicia to that Devil World, so she could take her own revenge, right?"
"Yes. I have gotten the source of that Green Devil Poison and realized it came from that world, specifically the Green Devil Tribe. Seeing how this world opened another gate toward another Lower World, I am sure that the poison came from that place.
"Alicia asked me about this and requested me to send her to that place. She wanted to train while taking her own revenge. Of course, I have sent a fighter from the Ice Phoenix Tribe along with her, so she can help her if anything happens, but how coincidence it is…" Lin Xingzhi looked down, falling into deep thought.
"Shall we go to that place as well?" Firia asked.
Lin Xingzhi wanted to go to that place immediately but remembered about the appearance of that time element guy. She hesitated and bit her lips. "It"s better to wait for him here."
"Why? If I am not wrong, the strongest devil there is rank 7 G.o.d. Although the Green Devil only has one rank 9 G.o.d, they will be in trouble if they face that rank 7."
"That"s why I sent a helper to Alicia. Things are going to get messy soon, not because of this world, but another thing. The only way is to have him grow as quickly as possible."
"But do you not want to see him? You said it yourself that you want to go around in another world."
"I might say it that way, but do you think I chose the world without any consideration?" Lin Xingzhi smiled helplessly.
"What do you mean?"
"That world has Fire Sun Gra.s.s."
"Fire Sun Gra.s.s…" Firia heard it somewhere and recalled what it truly was. "That medicinal herb is for the fifth refinement of his Undying Fire Body!"
"Yeah, that"s right. Of course, I want to spend some time with him, but I still know my priority." Lin Xingzhi gritted her teeth.
Firia looked down before asking in a low tone. "Then what is the trouble you are talking about?"
Lin Xingzhi didn"t answer her. Instead, she decided to go around it by saying, "I am sure that with all the information he has right now, he will arrive in similar speculation. And if he goes to that place, he will have his answer, so I want to wait until he arrives at his own conclusion before explaining everything."
Firia furrowed her eyebrows. "Fine. I won"t say anything more. Besides, he can spend some time with Alicia there since I took my own time in that world."
Lin Xingzhi was a bit sad, but she nodded. "Thank you."
"Then, we need to provide information to Alex about that world and lead him to the Devil World. After going there, they can return to this place." Firia nodded and looked at Zark, "That"s right. You were supposed to bring back Alicia too, right?"
"Yes. I was about to go there after meeting with Master, but because of this, I returned here first."
"Alicia also hasn"t finished her revenge…" Firia looked down, feeling troubled.
"Yes. The Green Devil Tribe is a bit sneaky, and our spies are limited on that planet, so we can"t do a full world"s check because the other worlds might be watching our move if we mobilize that many people." Zark nodded.
"Then, we are going to let Alex and Alicia solve this. Alex should have the others, so I am not worried about him."
"Indeed. If it"s them, they should be able to protect Master well."
Lin Xingzhi, who was in deep thought, finally opened her mouth. "For now, I want all the information about this world. I will be giving it to Alex after this… Well, I don"t know if he has this information in his past knowledge, so just in case."
"I understand. I shall prepare it for you." Zark then left the room.
Before long, he appeared again with a few doc.u.ments and Korzan.
"Korzan?"
"Milady, I would like to ask Zark to investigate the s.p.a.ce Tunnel that connects the two worlds."
"Ho?"
"I don"t know why, but the Devil World wouldn"t open a s.p.a.ce Tunnel that easily. Because Master was in the lower world that seemed to have experienced that world"s invasion in the past, I checked a few things regarding that world." Korzan put on a serious expression.
"What is it?"
"They searched for a Sun Moon Seed in that world."
"Sun Moon Seed!" Firia opened her mouth in amazement. As expected from an Alchemist, she immediately recognized what it was. "It"s a Divine Rank seed. The Sun Moon Seed would become a Sun Moon Tree where it would only produce two fruits. The Sun Fruit and Moon Fruit. Just like Yin and Yang, these two fruits were suited for a couple to advance their cultivation."
"Yes. That was why I believe they were searching for something important." Korzan nodded.
"So, do you want Alex to grab it?"
"If possible. On one hand, I can understand that Master wants to rush to Lady Alicia. On the other hand, this mysterious thing that made the Devil World move must be extraordinary." Korzan paused. "The Red Devil and Purple Devil ate those two fruits in the past, allowing them to immediately enter rank 8 G.o.d without the need of cultivating. So, I think there is a chance that this thing will benefit master as well… And the fact that we can"t mobilize too many people at once, Master is the best person."
"A Rank 9 Ingredient is called a Divine Ingredient for a reason. The Sun Moon Seed was one of the rarest, so I could understand why a whole world moved in the past…" Lin Xingzhi stroked her chin gently as she tried to come up with an idea. "I will convey this matter to Alex and see whether he wants to do it or not. The decision is in his hand. What do you think?"
"It"s enough." Korzan nodded. "Though I believe Master will ask about Lady Alicia"s condition first before deciding. If he knows that she is alright, he will surely set up a time limit and search for it. Nelson and the other N squad might help as well."
"Nah. They can"t be bothered. They will simply torture the devils for the answer." Lin Xingzhi shrugged. "Anyway, I shall convey the information to Alex."
"Yes. Thank you very much."
"Then I think it"s time for me to go to investigate the s.p.a.ce Tunnel. I will see whether I should sever the connection by myself or not after seeing the actual fact." Zark added before leaving the room with Korzan.
Firia and Lin Xingzhi exchanged looks as the former said, "We should see what happened to Alex first."
She nodded and looked at the screen.
…
In the meantime, as Lin Xingzhi said, Alex finally arrived at the exact same scene.
He was teleported into a very familiar place. It was inside a grand room with a red carpet stretching from the door to the stairs leading to the majestic seat covered in golden decoration. A man sat on the chair, looking at the people in front of him.
However, Alex couldn"t observe even more as he was clutching his chest because of unbearable pain. He immediately used his s.p.a.ce Element to seal his cultivation.
Martial Saint…
Martial Monarch…
Martial Lord…
Martial Master…
Foundation Stage…
When he reached the foundation stage, the pain finally disappeared. He finally could see his surroundings, finding four people beside him.
One of them was male, while the other three were females. They wore some sort of school uniform, but it was close to that from the Earth.
He was dumbstruck, recalling all things that happened when he was coming to a different world. When his vision lingered around the room, he found many soldiers and old men whispering to each other. Out of five of them, only him had different clothes, so they must think it weird.
He didn"t know why, but this nostalgic scene truly made all the past memories resurface.
The group finally recovered from the dizziness after the travel as they glanced left and right, finding what just happened.
At this time, the person who sat before them rose and said in a pacifying tone.
"Welcome, Heroes. I have summoned you to this world because the devils want to eliminate humanity."
Alex smirked and thought. "It has the same setting too!"
