Gacha Sovereign

Chapter 1062 - Three News

After cultivating for a year, Alex had yet to wake up. Lin Xingzhi was wondering the reason he had yet to come out. Even Alaya had no sign of coming out for the last few months.

Meanwhile, inside the room, Alaya's palms intertwined with Alex's palms as she was circulating her Life and Death Power. The power coming from her eyes came all out, channeling their power to Alex's massive energy pit that never returned.

At the same time, the influx of Death Energy quickly put the burden on his soul. Luckily, Alex's soul was far stronger than normal due to him being an alchemist. On the contrary, Life Energy refined all of his Divine Energy, purifying it even further.

Due to these two actions, he endured constant pain.

Alaya couldn't understand what kind of experience he had to endure this level of pain for a few months.

Suddenly, the constant flow of energy was disrupted, flowing back to her as if Alex's tank was already filled and now they were circulating to each other. It was the sign of finish, so she began chanting the specific mantra to break the flow, so each of them could keep whatever they got.

"Shakive Aratooe Saman."

Bang.

Alex broke through to Rank 6 God in an instant.

The fluctuation of energy shook the entire room before a rich Life and Death Energy gushed out of Alex's body as if it was trying to get accustomed to their new host.

"This…I have never thought that you are a real freak." Alaya was covered in sweat as she gradually closed her eyes. The Life and Death Spirits also came out, exhausted. "No, I should say that no wonder the Spirit Crown is listed as one of the strongest techniques and whoever can use it will rule Eulja."

Alex gradually opened his eyes, noticing that his Spirit Crown was still hovering above his head. However, he saw the difference in his Spirit Crown.

Next to the blue jewel, there were white and black gems accompanying it.

"What has happened?" Alex asked in confusion. Although he understood the flow of energy, he didn't know what happened outside.

"You are very dangerous. If I know that your Spirit Crown is this greedy, I won't make a contract with you." Alaya panted as she gradually laid down on the bed, sulking.

"Ehm? I am sorry?" Alex tilted his head and asked it one more time. "So, can you explain it to me?"

"After cultivating my power for six months, the Spirit Crown began sucking up my power. If I were not by your side, you would have gone to qi deviation, you know. What the heck with that Spirit Crown anyway? I have never expected that there is such a greedy technique that can evolve on its own. It's powerful but, at the same time, may become a double-edged weapon for you."

"Hmm?" Alex looked down, falling into deep thought. He then realized what she meant. "I see. I am sorry. Are you alright?"

"Yes. I am just exhausted. Luckily, I have managed to reach Martial Monarch during the time. If not, I wouldn't be able to complete the process. Besides, it seems to be a blessing for you because you have reached Rank 6 God Stage." Alaya sighed. "I wonder who is the monster… You become a Rank 6 God this young?"

"Ahaha." Alex scratched the back of his head. "At the very least, the foundation is not damaged."

"Yeah. Just be careful of using your Spirit Crown."

"I believe it's related to the elementless that created the foundation of the Spirit Crown."

"You mean the Spirit God's power? Well, that guy was a maniac, so I could somehow understand if it were him."

Alex closed his eyes and thought. 'The Spirit God seemed to get his element by absorbing other elements. Because he was a Spirit Race, he could only get six elements. However, it was different when I was in charge. Humans were known for their adaptability, so it wasn't weird to see me getting more elements like this.'

"Well, this also opens a path for me." Alaya let out a long sigh while looking at Alex's third eye.

"What is it?"

"Your Third Eye…Samsara Eye can become my place to stay if I agree to become your full-fledged spirit. In other words, I will turn myself from the manifestation of the Great Codex to your Samsara Spirit. You can say it's like Al and El."

"What?" Alex widened his eyes in shock.

Before he continued talking, she stopped him with a wave of her hand. "Listen to me first. I only have one thousand years as my lifespan. However, if I were to become your spirit, I can live as long as you are still alive. This will allow me to extend my life, but I don't know if I have the thought to do so.

"Second, I want to maintain our status quo for the time being because it feels a bit weird to be controlled. At least, for me. Third. I want you to keep getting stronger because I know that the beast is far stronger than you right now."

"I understand." Alex nodded. "I will honor your opinion."

"Thanks." Alaya smiled and continued. "Alright. Let's talk about the problem with your Spirit Crown."

Alex agreed and said, "First of all, I seem to gain a bit of your power. For example, I can use the Death Energy to perceive my own death just like you smelling the scent of death."

"That's a good ability."

"Of course, it's related to this third eye."

"Yeah. It must be."

"Second, it is related to Life Energy. I don't know why but Life Energy is similar to Nature Energy, allowing me to use my Spirit Crown faster."

"Relatable." She nodded before falling into deep thought. "If I am not wrong, it can heal your soul, right?"

"I am not sure, but I do feel that the energy rejuvenates my soul. I won't need to worry about it anymore."

"Yeah." She nodded and asked. "Your Spirit Crown has evolved too, right?"

"Indeed, but I don't feel the difference at the moment, so I can't really say something regarding this ability." He shook his head in disappointment.

"It's alright. It happens sometimes." Alaya shrugged. "So, any other change?"

"I broke through to Rank 6 God."

"I can see that. I mean, the technique or something."

"I don't know. I seem to be able to control your Life and Death Energy, but that's all."

"The energy alone is enough for you. It seems I was greedy."

"How did you come to that conclusion? Wasn't it supposed to be the other way around?" Alex tilted his head in confusion.

Alaya shrugged. "I am just curious what kind of monster I will be able to produce. It seems that I still need to search for a disciple. Anyway, I am glad that you are stronger right now."

"Thanks." Alex smiled. "I think you should rest first."

"Yeah. I need to recover and continue my cultivation. Regaining my strength is really not easy." She let out a long sigh.

"Do you need anything?"

"No. It's better to recover naturally, so I will just sit down like this for a decade and I will be back as the Life and Death Goddess." She shook her head gently.

"Is that so? I will leave first then. If you need anything, just call me." Alex smiled, knowing that he needed to meet with the others.

"Yeah."

Alex then rose from the bed and left the room, heading straight to Lin Xingzhi's room.

"You are done?"

Alex nodded. "I will probably begin another training even though I haven't done anything during this time."

"It's fine. You are going to train with Rilt, right?"

"Yes."

"Before that, I want to mention a few important things."

"Bad news or good news?"

"Both. The first news is related to Sherry. There is someone currently eyeing her Pure Fire along with herself."

"Ho?" Alex's eyes turned cold as he subconsciously released killing intent. "This guy wants trouble it seems."

"Yeah. The problem is that his father is a God King, known as Array God. According to our information, he is the current leading Array Master among the others."

"Is that a problem?" Alex narrowed his eyes.

"No." Her expression turned grim before a sinister smile appeared on her face. "Even if his father is a God King, dare to covet someone's wife and her possession is enough to guarantee a death warrant from us."

"I am sorry that I can only rely on you this time." Alex looked at her.

"It's fine. However, Sherry asked me not to mobilize the army first. She wants to solve this by herself."

"So, she wants us to remain silent for the time being?"

"Yeah. As long as it's still possible, she wants to do it first. Of course, I have contacted the Beast God himself and learned that he supports Sherry's idea. If war is inevitable, he will be contacting us, requesting our reinforcement. At that time, we can move alongside them to crush them. This won't make the entire community of Array Master happy, but who cares about their opinion?"

"I understand. Just like how she supported me this whole time, I want to support her decision. Just make sure that everything is monitored."

"Yeah. Don't worry about it. A portion of N Squad has been monitoring them." Lin Xingzhi looked at the ceiling with a sigh. "Sherry has finally soared to the sky. She usually waits for your order, but this time, she makes the plan herself and executes it."

Alex nodded in agreement. This showed that Sherry slowly became independent.

"Alright then. I will write a letter later. So, what is the second news?"

"The second news is related to your coronation. We have agreed that you will take the post as soon as you reach Rank 5 God. To that end, Rilt asked me to extend the training period because he would teach you the rest two techniques in succession."

"I don't mind. It will take two years, but I guess it's good for my improvement."

"Exactly. That's why as soon as you become a Rank 5 God, you will take the mantle of the Spirit God."

"I understand. I have prepared myself. I just don't know whether the spirits will accept me as their new king."

"They will. They are simpler than you thought. As long as you wield that Spirit Crown, it's going to be alright."

"That's the problem." Alex scratched the back of his head before showing his new Spirit Crown.

"Holy sh—" She widened her eyes when she saw two white and black jewels besides the blue one.

"I don't know about their power right now."

"That will become a bit of a problem. How about searching for its real power first. We might need to reschedule it."

"Yeah. Depending on its ability, I don't know if I can take the mantle or not. Either way, I need to discover it before doing it."

"Exactly. Anyway, other than your coronation, I need to prepare for the chain reaction of your coronation. I am afraid that we will start getting targeted. After that, we can see which God Kings are neutral. We can get them into the alliances to fight the beast."

"Well, it's not like we can ask their help for fighting against the bats or something because they will think I trap them."

"Yeah. If possible, we can meet someone who knows Alaya, so she can mediate the conversation."

"Fair enough."

"What are you planning to do during Rank 6 God?"

"I am not sure. For me, I would like to reach Rank 5 God as soon as possible, but I know that I should finish the Undying Fire Body first. I only need the last herb. After that, I will go to Encore. The rest of the time, I will spend training while practicing with the girls. I have promised them after all."

Lin Xingzhi nodded. "I will search for a good place where you can do both."

"Thanks." Alex nodded. "I will go to Father then."

"Sure."

After her confirmation, Alex then left the room, heading straight to Rilt.
