Chapter 583 Foundation No. 41

Chapter 583 Foundation No. 41

A few seconds later-- In a luxurious house next to the Imperial Palace

*BAM*

"Alexander, where are you?!" Robin pushed the door like crazy and shouted as soon as he entered, his hair was still wet from the shower!

"...Your Excellency?" Alexander, who was standing in the middle of the hall with a few people around him, was shocked by Robin's sudden appearance.

He sent His Excellency a mental message just seconds ago to ask to schedule an appointment, but he didn't respond and instead, he came immediately!

Alexander quickly bowed towards Robin and the people standing with him also bowed, before respectfully asking for permission and departing, leaving Robin and Alexander alone.

"You did not have to come yourself to my humble abode, Your Excellency. You should have just informed me and I will come to you myself..." Alexander pointed towards the main seat in the hall.

This multi-story house was specially built on the hill to be the headquarters of Commander-in-Chief Alexander since he knew that The war here would be prolonged. He ordered the construction of a house with several floors so that the lower floor would contain his office and where he would meet his subordinates, and the upper floors would be the residence of him and his family, whom he had brought from Planet Jura to live with him here.

Robin took quick steps towards the main seat as if he were walking on air, "Here we sit, let's talk quickly, how did you break through now? What kept you from breaking through all this time? Did you find a problem with the technique and fix it?"

"Find a problem with Your Excellency's technique and fix it? I'm not that smart, Your Excellency. It is just... um..." Alexander moved slowly and found himself a seat next to Robin. He seemed lost for a moment, not knowing what to say.

"You are what?" Robin furrowed his eyebrows, "Okay, let's leave the details aside for now, tell me... How does it feel to be a Martial Emperor?"

"...I'm afraid I still don't know this feeling." Alexander got these words out with difficulty and scratched his head

"...Alexander, I know we've become close since you're my second in command, but we're not close enough for you to pull me out of my seclusion with a joke like that. Did ??? break through? Yes or no." Robin looked a little angry now

Alexander rubbed his eyes for a moment as if he didn't know where to start. He really didn't know since he was just asking for a visit and didn't expect to see Robin in front of him now, "Sigh~ Your Excellency, please send your soul sense to check my energy gathering center, I'm going lessen my defenses."

Although this request somewhat shocked Robin, he did as he was told, and as soon as he touched Alexander's energy-gathering center with his soul sense, he quickly stood up and shouted, "This...?"

Alexander's energy gathering center contained 41 solid energy layers, meaning he had truly broken through to the Emperor Realm!!

But solid layer No. 41 is very strange...

Up to the 40th layer, all the energy solid layers are equal in dimensions, so they form the shape of a tower, as the single floor and its columns are made by part of heavenly law, and what is inside each floor is pure energy in the liquid state waiting to emerge for consumption.

The difference between the first 40 *floors* is that each level contains a part of the law that is higher than the one below it, and therefore it is stronger and can compress a greater amount of liquefied energy within it, and enables the body to withstand the use of that new part of the law without being harmed.

As for the 41st floor, it has changed this concept. It is simply enormous in size!

The 41st solid layer is dozens of times wider than the one right below it, and the distance between the 40th floor and the 41st, which is known as the pillar area, is now also dozens of times greater than the distance between any two other floors... If the solid layers previously resembled a tower, now they resemble a mushroom!

"Foundation No. 41 alone can store many times more energy than all the previous foundations combined..." Robin muttered in a low voice, still fully focused on examining Alexander's energy-gathering center, "This isn't entirely shocking to me, after all, this is the solution I came up with in order to prevent the destruction of solid foundations while using the fourth stage of the laws, I had to recommend making the foundation itself larger to withstand the pressure of withdrawing a huge amount of energy while using the fourth stage and I spent months on each technique writing how to implement this theory without problems, but it was supposed to be one or two times larger at most, this is simply... How did Foundation No.41 eventually reach this size? Alexander, did you do something unscripted in the technique you received?"

Alexander shook his head, "No, Your Excellency, I did nothing additional and did not even implement Your Excellency's plan to strengthen the foundation. When I started experimenting and when I started compressing the pillars using the fourth stage of the Major Heavenly Law of the Wind, I noticed that the resulting pillars were dozens of times larger, and this too what held me back for more than two years until I completely finished the foundation was that it required the accumulation of a huge amount of energy, even if I was in complete seclusion and did not go out every few days to follow up on the Empire's work, it would have taken me several months to finish... This was not my will and I could not even implement Your Excellency's instructions, this final scene resulted on its own."

"Are you saying that your energy center knew that the foundation would collapse and automatically inflated it until it reached the optimal size for use?" Robin suppressed his sense of humor and leaned back in his chair, "...It seems I was complicating matters more than I should have."

At this moment, Robin remembered a conversation with Jabba about the origin of humans, in which they talked in length about the discovery of the internal energy system in all planets without communication between them and how the internal energy system is almost identical in all planets.

At that time, Robin concluded that the internal energy system was an unavoidable reality due to the existence of the energy gathering center as a separate organ in the body and that its discovery was only a matter of time, but thinking about it... Couldn't a person on another planet exploit the energy-gathering center in another way? Why did they all adopt this method of pillars and solid foundations?

What if the energy gathering center has a certain way that it must be used and cannot be used otherwise? Is this why the internal energy system is identical everywhere? Maybe he should stop thinking of it as a process and think of it as if he were treating a whole body part. For example, no one tells the liver what it should do if one drinks a lot of wine or eats a lot of sugar, it acts as it sees fit!

Until this moment, there were two techniques that everyone relied on when breaking through to the higher level, a technique to absorb the surrounding energy, and a technique that tells him the details of the law with which he will build his pillars, so why complicate the matter now and suddenly create a way to break through? Maybe he was really thinking too much.

Alexander did not notice the state of enlightenment that Robin had entered. At this moment, he said anxiously, "But is this safe? Your Excellency, you must be thinking what I am thinking as well... What will happen to me now?"

"...You are afraid that the 41st foundation will collapse due to its huge size and perhaps destroy all the other foundations below it on the way, right? This almost drove me crazy in the last three years as well and made me recommend the three-fold increase inside only, but it seems that thinking about it is of no use, you can see how stable the foundation is, so there is no need to panic. Secondly, if this sight was caused by my technique, I would be as worried as you are, but you said yourself that this happened naturally. Whatever caused this, you have to believe that everything around you wants you to become stronger and does not want to harm you, at least when it comes to energy levels." Robin spoke confidently, after what he heard from Evergreen and after seeing so many similar incidents throughout his life, this judgment was a foregone conclusion

"But what about level 42 and above? Will they all be like this? Will the first 40 foundations bear this heavy load as I proceed?!" Alexander furrowed his eyebrows, clearly worried still plaguing him

"...Look, as long as this happened naturally, it is clear that you will be fine as long as you are in the Martial Emperor Realm, but most likely the upper realm, starting from the 51st foundation, will witness a fundamental shift in the internal energy system that turns it upside down, That's if the foundation-pillar thing will still exist by then... Leave this for its time, just know that you have nothing to worry about for now." Robin waved

"...If there are still foundations? Will they really collapse?!" Alexander panicked

"I said leave it alone already." Robin stared into Alexander's eyes, "Man, you achieved your dream of becoming a Martial Emperor but you're worried about what will happen in the post-Emperor realm? We haven't even chosen a name for that realm yet!"

"Hahaha, as long as Your Excellency is among us, crossing the Emperor's barrier is only a matter of time. Thank you for everything." Alexander paused and bowed again, this time coming from his whole heart

"Alright sit down already. You're ruling my Empire on my behalf. Maybe it is I who should thank you." Robin laughed out loud and spoke with relief, "But I must admit, you worried me at first, you made me think you failed to break through or something haha today we should celebrate!"

"Ummm..."

"...What now?" Robin cut into his laughter

"...Sigh~ Your Excellency, allow me to perform an attack with the fourth stage of the Wind Law." Alexander shook his head

"You want to show off, huh? Well, let's go to a training zone," Robin stood up and laughed, he too wanted to see this sight.

As for Alexander, he laughed sarcastically and raised his hand, "There is no need to go anywhere." His aura began to strengthen, and it was clear that he was really intending to launch a massive attack.

"Alexander stop immediately, You must realize how powerful the fourth stage of the Wind Law is! Do you want to blow your house apart!?!" Robin shouted at Alexander, who thought he was going crazy and quickly took out his black spear, ready to destroy the massive attack as soon as it came out.

But what happened next was: Pffftt *Fart sound*
