Gacha Sovereign 438 Lightning Tribulation Other Half

*Rumble Rumble*

The rumbling immediately alarmed everyone in the Nilis Continent. Not only in the Nilis Continent, but the people from Sacred Continent could also feel this rumble.

All of them immediately came out of their house and looked at Alex's direction. Not long after the rumble, they saw the sky turned into golden, like welcoming the king. They never saw something like this and no record about it either.

Their interest was immediately piqued as all of them immediately sent their own people toward that place. They could feel that it was coming from a lightning tribulation, which meant someone was undergoing their tribulation.

However, all of them did know which genius managed to do that. They immediately checked their own geniuses but found nothing. Even the people from Nilis Continent who were closer to this did not even know, let alone the people from Sacred Continent.

All of them immediately suspected each other. But because it originated from a neutral area, they were confused. They all knew about the geniuses in the continent but felt all of them somewhat lacking.

So, they immediately thought this was an unknown genius they never discovered. Their eyes immediately filled with greed.

However, the king of Brynhildr Kingdom looked at this while frowning. He murmured, "Golden Sky? Golden Lightning? I have read the report about a certain genius from Wilow Continent, but how can this phenomenon appear in this continent?

"The army is still conquering the Wilow Continent for me, and from the report, this boy should be participating in the tournament. If that happens, there are only two possible futures for him… death or plead allegiance to us.

"However, it is only about two months from all of that, but I haven't gotten any news from those people. Did something happen to them? Or do they meet resistance from all the influences or even from the Northern Continent, so they get into trouble? It shouldn't be possible since we have made sure there won't be any resistance.

"If they get into trouble, then they should request reinforcement from us… However, what if there is another person that can trigger such a phenomenon? It seems I need to check it myself." He turned around and roared, "Guards. Call our army and set out to Ghoroa Forest."

…

Meanwhile,

Alex looked at the golden dragon that was coming toward him. He raised both of his weapons and waved it.

"Seven Stars Cut."

The two sword waves flew toward the dragon. As usual, the lightning dragon was burned by the Fire and was struck by the sword waves.

The ground started shaking by the sheer shockwave and sent many trees flying. It cleared the space around Alex, to nothing but dirt. Alex focused his Spirit Eyes on this clash and frowned. He never expected that his attack was losing. Although it was by a small amount, it was still shocking.

After all, this was his most powerful move. He was confident that even 4-Star Martial King could not block this, but to think the lightning could defeat his attack… Alex cursed, "This lightning is trying to kill me, right? It's not even a challenge anymore, it is a murder."

Alex immediately leaped to the sky, wanting to deal the last blow. He did not use his Twin Intent since there was no need to. He simply compressed his domains and struck the lightning.

"Heaven Breaking Sword."

"Berserker Strike."

The lightning turned into golden dust and burst into the sky. It fell down and created a beautiful scene. But Alex did not have time to savor this scene as he felt his body was going to undergo a transformation. His head also started aching.

Alex immediately recalled all of his spirits while enduring the uncomfortable feeling. He felt it would be nice just to receive it here and be done with it, but he knew the risk to do that. So, he immediately made rank 5 teleportation array. Each Array could only send him a hundred kilometers away, so he made several arrays to the direction Nelson pointed at in the beginning.

After he managed to reach the place, Alex immediately summoned all of them back as he fell to the ground, trying to undergo the transformation.

The first one was his soul.

Alex could feel the energy inside his mind slowly flowed toward his heart. The energy slowly converted into another type of energy before coming back to his mind.

Suddenly, he entered another space. The space was filled with darkness, and he could not see a single thing on the horizon.

He noticed he was standing on a cloud instead of the ground. He was wondering where this place was.

"System?" Alex tried to ask his system but to no avail. There was no response or whatsoever.

He then noticed that the cloud slowly expanded to the horizon. In the middle of the cloud, he suddenly saw a small white ball. The ball was like cotton candy. However, Alex could feel an insane amount of energy inside of it.

He found the energy was similar and instantly realized it was his soul.

The ball then slowly turned into something as the cloud continued to expand. After about two hours, the expansion finally halted, and the ball finally revealed itself.

It suddenly turned into a mini version of him. The appearance was his current experience, but the height itself was only a tenth of him. The soul was wearing casual clothes and a long black robe.

He looked at the chibi, intrigued. It felt like he could control this mini creature with his thought. He slowly used his mind and ordered it to move his right hand.

Surprisingly, the mini version of him raised his hand as he was ordered.

Alex immediately tried a few more times and finally grasped the way to control it. Although it was still a bit rigid, it was still good enough.

He then felt a presence… no two presences. He turned his head and tried to look around.

He could see two wisps floating around in the corner of the clouds, one white and one black. Alex frowned when he saw this. He did not know why, but he felt sharpness from both of them.

Alex remembered the thing his system said to him. Consciousness! Alex realized it was the consciousness of his Sword and Spear. The two that he needed to remove.

He raised his hands, trying to channel his power into his hand. He was bewildered when he found there was no energy inside his body. He pondered for a while. "Is this what it means to destroy them with my own soul?"

He observed these two wisps first before shaking his head. He would not be able to do it at his current condition as he lacked information about this.

Deciding to put the matter on hold, Alex tried to see what kind of this he could do. He also tried to come back to reality by pinching his cheek or something, thinking it was something similar to a dream but to no avail.

After several attempts, he realized he could just picture the exit with his mind. Since he could do nothing at the moment, he decided to leave, wanting to ask the system for more information.

Alex slowly opened his eyes and saw all of his spirits around him. Unfortunately, before they could realize he was awake, Alex closed his eyes again as the pain started creeping inside his head. Before long, he started to scream.

"Gah!"

The scream ended in an instant. He screamed out of reflex and found out that the pain was nothing compared to the pain he needed to endure in his body refinement. He just needed to clench his fists and greeted his teeth for this.

His head was being filled with many kinds of information and knowledge. He felt the knowledge was about Martial Arts, but it turned out the opposite. There was not a single Martial Art inside the knowledge. Instead, all of it was Element Art. From Fire, Magma, Water, Ice, Wind, Thunder, even Space.

All of that knowledge suddenly crammed inside his head at the same time. He felt his brain was roasted and became a bit fuzzy. Even so, he kept enduring this until it finished.

He also took a glimpse of the Element Arts in the process. He was surprised the Element Arts were ranging from a Yellow Tier to the Saint Tier.

There were many Heaven Tier Fire Element Arts as well as Saint Tier Arts. He felt he could learn them but not use them. One of the reasons was because his cultivation was not enough.

With his Martial King cultivation, the most he could use was High Heaven Tier. After around 6-Star Martial King, his cultivation should be enough to use Low Saint Tier Element Art.

Saint Tier Art was a bit special as there was a big gap between each level. From the look of it, the Saint Tier Art could influence the Nature itself, so it was pretty understandable it had a high requirement.

It was just he learned another Tier above Saint Tier Art. It was called Forbidden Tier Art. It was called Forbidden Tier Art because it was a transition phase before becoming a Divine Art.

Low Saint Tier could only be used at 6-Star Martial King, Mid Saint Tier at 1-Star Martial Emperor, and High Saint Tier at 6-Star Martial Emperor.

However, only Martial Monarch and Martial Saint were qualified to use Forbidden Art. Alex wanted to learn it, but it was useless since he could not use it. In fact, he could not even practice it. So, Alex did not pry open those techniques for the time being and focused on his Heaven Tier Element Arts.

He might need to sort all this knowledge again after he came back before choosing the right Element Art for him. However, he found something that could pique his interest.

'Realm Seal Technique.'

It was a unique Space Element Art. It did not have any tier as no one managed to learn this technique, except one person, Dungeon God, Rigor.

"!!!" Alex opened his mouth in surprise. He did not know how to react to this.

[Host, you need to learn it!]

"System?" Alex was startled to see the system proactively commanded him.

[This is only a hypothesis, but you should know the space element from the system is unique, right?]

"Yes." Alex nodded before realizing something wrong. "Don't tell me…"

[Yes. From the record, no one could use this technique except the Dungeon God. But let us rethink this. To make the dungeon in the Lower World such as the Agar world that you lived in a few years ago, how can he get into the Lower World where the world barrier should restrict him?]

[Even your teacher could not do this. It is either you destroy the entire world along with its barrier from the outside, or you break open the barrier and send some people in. If it was the latter, the people inside would feel a repelling force inside their body and would be expelled.]

"To build those dungeons as well as the interior, he needed time." Alex froze upon the realization.

[Yes. According to the Manual, the technique can allow you to make a special realm inside your body. This can transport or seal your cultivation and soul inside your special realm.]

"That way, the world would not know! With my cute little soul and my cultivation sealed with that realm, doesn't it mean I can go back to the lower world?"

[Possibly. But are you going to?]

"No. Even if I wanted, it would only for a short time. Maybe, telling them, I am safe or something and saying thanks to my teacher. But what I want to say is traveling between worlds! You say there is a world barrier that prevents people from going there, but with this technique, I can bypass that and travel between worlds!

"With that, I might get special Medicinal herbs or resources that only a particular world has!" Alex shouted and finally opened his eyes.
