"In that case, I won't have a problem in advancing to the next level in this place." Alex smiled because he could already see what would happen next. However, a concern also appeared in his eyes.
Finding a trace of fear in Alex's eyes, the Spirit God lowered his head. He knew his concern and what kind of method the beast did to speed up the process. After all, he had prepared for this too. "Actually, I have a method to make you advance as soon as possible. But this is going to be painful for you. I believe you will face this type of pain for a few years."
"As much as I hate to say it, the Undying Fire Body has turned me into someone who can withstand this type of pain." Alex scratched the back of his head, feeling pretty embarrassed.
"Well, I don't know about your pain tolerance, but since you're confident, we can start right away." He nodded. "To put it simply, I will be converting the Divine Energy here to Immortal Energy by using my Law of Nothingness. Since it doesn't have anything from elements to consciousness, the energy itself will attract the Immortal Energy that I have created in the past five thousand years.
"At that time, you will feel the sudden influx in your body, converting your Divine Energy into Immortal Energy. This way, you will be able to reach your goal fifty percent faster than doing it alone."
Alex contemplated for a moment and nodded. "I understand the gist of it. We can do it right now."
"I like your spirit. Now, let's sit down and do the process immediately. I will give you the instructions on how to create Immortal Energy first before I start supplying you."
Alex nodded and sat down on the floor, closing his eyes to feel the energy.
"First, try to release your Law and Divine Energy at the same time, trying to clash it with each other."
Alex nodded and did exactly what he was told before his eyebrows twitched as if he felt something unpleasant. The two indeed fought each other, but his Space and Fire Elements seemed to want to join the fight.
"I'm sure you can feel something moving in your body… Just let it out. It's your natural instinct to stop the reaction."
Alex acknowledged it again and let out the two elements. Surprisingly, the reaction suddenly got halved when his Sun God Fire suppressed them as if telling them to get along with each other. Then his Space Element tried to harmonize their relationship as if snitching them both with threads.
Slowly but surely, the Law and Divine Energy began to fuse, creating something new to his body. Alex felt this was the answer and continued without the Spirit God telling him to.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing this improvement, the Spirit God nodded with a smile before sitting in front of him with a calm expression. He then released both his Law and Divine Energy.
Obviously, the Spirit God's energy was far weaker than Alex's, but his energy had another function. Because of his Law, the Law of Nothingness, all the energy converted by him had no element as he explained earlier. In other words, it was just neutral Immortal Energy.
At the same time, the Spirit God also helped him convert the Divine Energy into Immortal Energy through his Law of Nothingness. He then forcefully stuffed that kind of power inside Alex's body which caused a huge reaction from Alex's body.
After all, because of his elements as well as Law, the energy that Alex produced had the marking of both Law and his Elements. Yet, the one that entered his body had none of them.
The two energy clashed as Alex's original energy tried to devour the elementless energy, seeping a bit of Flame Energy with the help of Space Energy and Luck. This way, the energy that the Spirit God sent to him would turn into his own energy.
Although this looked like not helping him since it just added the amount of energy inside his body, the Law of Nothingness had another special effect. It was to attract the original energy to merge. In other words, not only his Flame, Space, and Luck, but his Divine Energy also came inside the energy.
This was how the Spirit God helped him. With this kind of speed, he should be able to finish everything in three years. That was the Spirit God's prediction while Alex felt they needed a bit longer.
And Alex also worried about his family out there because he didn't wish to see the beast kill them while he was here.
However, worrying was useless, so Alex decided to focus on his current objective instead to avoid wasting time. This was the only way for him to go back as soon as possible.
The entire process continued. Since Alex had entirely focused on the current training, the Spirit God smiled and began to use all his power to help Alex.
The pain began to spread all over his body, but Alex maintained his calm as if this was just a normal one for him. In fact, this felt like ants crawling on his body and stung him. He simply didn't feel anything.
Since Alex didn't let out a single groan, the Spirit God decided to increase his output. As one would expect, the pain also increased, numbing all his senses and body.
However, Alex had yet to let out a single groan as if he could easily endure this level of pain. If it were anyone else, they would have started screaming, but Alex turned out to be stronger than this.
The Spirit God couldn't help but remember a former best friend and shook his head helplessly. His best friend also seemed to have a weird level of pain tolerance, so he believed that the Undying Fire Body was truly far worse than he imagined.
While recalling his past memories, the Spirit God kept producing the Immortal Energy to help Alex. But this was also dangerous to his body because his body would surely disappear in just a month at this rate.
Fortunately for him, he had predicted this course and used the Immortal Energy he had produced for five thousand years that was stored inside this space. In fact, the energy he transferred consisted of ninety-five percent of the Immortal Energy in this place while the rest came from his own.
His own Immortal Energy only had one purpose. It was to bring all the Immortal Energy in the surroundings like a magnet, so Alex could absorb at the rate no one had ever seen before. This rate was far even more terrifying than the Supreme Beast even with the help of the Angel.
Just like the Supreme Beast, the Spirit God had been planning for this after all.
Still, no matter how prepared he was, his body was that of a soul. In just six months, his body had begun to disappear.
Seeing Alex had yet to let out a single sound, he decided to keep doing it until the last minute. He only stopped after his remaining energy was enough for him to stay for a few hours without doing anything that would waste his energy. It also included the fact that he couldn't help Alex anymore.
When he finished, the Spirit God decided to step back, looking at Alex. 'To be honest, I don't wish for you to go to another universe even if you want to do it a thousand years later. I have a feeling that you will do just fine, albeit that's the one worrying me.
'There will be more and more women flocking around you, turning this entire situation a mess. Just like how you meet so many wives other than Anna, Anya, and Lin Xingzhi in your journey, I just don't wish to see more because they are going to be sad.
'Still, I won't stop you for it because you are my reincarnation. It's not my place to order you something. Hence, I will believe in you to make the best choice in your life and hope the best for your wives. Ah, of course, you will surely have kids in the future. Don't make them feel lonely and force them to do something they won't want to do.
'It's possible in your current state because you have the absolute power in that Universe. Also, don't lose sight of your important ones or you will regret it.' He couldn't help but make a gentle smile, only to find tears coming out of his eyes. 'Cherish them, take care of them, don't make them sad, and… Love them… forever. I'm sure you can do it because you're my reincarnation…'
The Spirit God kept thinking about all his advice but didn't say it out loud. However, as expected from a former life and its reincarnation, Alex seemed to feel something. Although the person himself didn't feel it, tears also fell down his eyes.
The Spirit God shook his head helplessly and rose from the ground. 'I shouldn't disturb him any further.'
…
Three years later.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter exhausting all the Immortal Energy inside the space, the entire place itself crumbled, turning it into a simple giant white floor.
In the middle of a white platform, Alex's body was floating, surrounded by another form of energy that didn't allow him to land on the ground. In fact, his energy was visible for all people to see… If there was any in this Universe.
If the color of the Spiritual Energy was sparkling gold, this energy had a pure Silver Color. It was close to grey to be honest. Although the appearance became a bit duller than the Spiritual Energy or Divine Energy, the power hidden inside this energy was far more amazing than them.
The energy couldn't be produced anywhere in this world.
Suddenly, a shock wave gushed out of his body and obliterated the entire field, creating a huge crater on where he sat.
Alex's eyes gradually opened as he slightly squinted his eyes for a while to adjust to the light outside. "It's been three years, huh… I wonder if the beast has actually finished…"
"He has not, but soon." The Spirit God's voice resounded in his ears as he abruptly turned around, finding the translucent Spirit God became even more transparent.
"You…" Alex narrowed his eyes before lowering his head. "Thank you."
"Don't mind it. My soul shouldn't exist to be honest. If not because we're here, the Universe might have sent its Disturbance to kill both of us. After all, I am you and you are me. We are the same and shouldn't exist in one timeline, let alone talking to each other like this." The Spirit God smiled and waved his hand.
"…" Alex nodded in agreement. He had learned a few things from him and he was so grateful that his past life was someone like him. "Still… There is something I would like to say to you… I really wish we were born in the same timeline. I feel like we will be good buddies."
"Hahahaha! We're the same, so obviously. But, yeah, I want to see it as well. I feel like we can do anything if we were born as twins. Either way, I shouldn't take too much of your time because your Tribulation is coming. You should leave this planet as soon as possible."
Alex fell silent. He truly wanted to talk more with his past self, but he had been feeling it as soon as the shock wave occurred. It was the sign of excessive Immortal Energy. In other words, Alex had converted all his Divine Energy into Immortal Energy and a little amount of that energy could actually cause such destruction.
At the same time, there was a faint feeling that something big was coming toward him. With the reminder from the Spirit God, he knew it was his Tribulation. Having no other choices, he leaped to outer space to face it.
And just like the Divine Tribulation, the first Disturbance to appear to challenge his power was none other than the Fire Disturbance.
"Time to step on the True Immortal Level."
