System: Replicating The Heavens

Chapter 210 Ch 210: Seno Vikram

Alex was shocked. He didn't expect he has to look for the Statue of Blue Monarch before the gate will appear in front of him.

Oleg also looked at the spot where the statue of Blue Monarch used to stand tall and said: "Other than the statue, there was nothing here. But even so, the Star Seeking Tower believes that the way to Stone of Tomorrow is hidden somewhere here. I have already looked everywhere before, however, I was unable to find any secret path. I don't think there is anything here."

Alex didn't say anything. He took a deep breath and sighed. Then he asked: "How long have you been here?"

Oleg calculated in his heart for a few seconds and replied: "I think I entered the maze about a year ago and have been inside this underground palace that seemed to have an independent space of its own for more than three months."

Alex nodded his head. It is no wonder this sword-wielding guy knows so much about this place.

Oleg again said: "Let's go. There is nothing here other than the danger of being cursed. If you are cursed, you'll be petrified and turn into a stone statue."

Alex nodded and was about to return with Oleg when his gaze again fell on the Feet Imprint, and for some reason, an image flashed in his mind. Alex froze on his spot and seemed to have been stupefied.

"What happened?"

When Oleg saw Alex behaving strangely, he immediately made a few meters of distance from Alex and asked.

Alex came back to his senses, he shook his head, and spoke: "I think you should go. I would like to stay here and observe first. I'll try to look for that hidden path you just talked about!"

When Oleg heard this, he looked at Alex strangely. He couldn't help but say: "Didn't I just tell you that there is no secret path here? The Star Seeking Tower has clearly misunderstood something and misinterpreted the situation. I have spent a long time searching here but failed to find anything. If you stay here longer, you'll be cursed and turn into a statue. I clearly felt a stream of strange energy touching my skin back then, and in that instant, my skin had turned into a stone. Fortunately, I reacted fast and left the pillar, otherwise, I would have also been petrified."

"Listen to me and let's leave this place!"

Oleg tried to convince Alex, however, how could Alex hear his words when he suddenly thought of something? He shook his head and said: "You should go. As I said before, I'll stay here for some time and look for the secret path. If I don't find it, I'll return!"

Oleg started feeling irritated. He didn't expect Alex to be so stubborn. He felt angry but didn't dare to reprimand Alex. After all, Alex's strength was far greater than his, and he doesn't want to become enemies with Alex.

After a while of forcing himself to calm down, Oleg said: "Do what you want, I'm leaving this place. I came here just to get the Golden Bone, and now that I have gotten it, there is no reason for me to stay here and put my life in danger. I hope you'll also return safely. Let's meet in the future if fate allows. I'll go first!"

Alex nodded and reminded Oleg: "Ok, you go first. And yes, the maze's terrain has changed somehow, so you need to be careful. You can't go the way you came in, you have to find another way to leave the maze!"

"What?" Oleg was shocked. He asked: "When did this happen?"

Alex smiled and told him everything he knew. After some time, Oleg left.

Alex then once again focused on the Feet Imprint on the surface of the pillar's top. He couldn't help but remember about the huge statue that he had seen in the secret realm when he was going through the Examination in order to enter the Inner Sect of the Floating Cloud Academy in Red Leaf Country.

At that time, he met a group of demonic cultivators inside who used to call the huge statue as GOD.

Those demonic cultivators had established a whole village there.

Alex had found the statue very strange at that time, and when he looked at the statue, an attribute panel appeared in front of his eyes that told him that a statue is actually a living person, but in a petrified state.

At that time, Alex had stored the statue in the Personal Space of the system and left.

Alex had almost forgotten about that statue. Now that he suddenly remembered about it, he started doubting if that statue is the statue of Blue Monarch.

But if he remembered correctly, then the attribute panel didn't say anything like Blue Monarch at all.

Thinking of this, Alex glanced in the personal space of the system and looked at the statue. Once again, a familiar attribute panel appeared in front of his eyes.

[Name: Seno Vikram (Petrified State).

Cultivation Realm: Extreme Void Stage (Petrified State).

Cultivation Talent: N/A (Petrified State).

Martial Arts: N/A (Petrified State).

Special Physique: Flame Titan Physique (Petrified State).

Bloodline: Flame Titan Bloodline.

Treasures: None.]

Alex took a deep breath. He found a few similarities between Seno Vikram and Blue Monarch.

Seno Vikram is an Extreme Void Stage martial warrior, and Blue Monarch is also an Extreme Void Stage martial warrior. Seno Vikram is in the petrified state and the same goes for the Blue Monarch.

According to Oleg, Blue Monarch's statue was stolen by a group of the demonic cultivator who thought that the statue is the statue of their Demon God.

And Seno Vikram's statue was also in a group of demonic cultivators' hands who worship the statue as their god.

Other than the name, everything about this Seno Vikram is very similar to the Blue Monarch.

Alex doubted, for Blue Monarch is just a title. Maybe, Blue Monarch's real name is Seno Vikram. If that is the case, then both of them are the same person.

For a moment, Alex didn't know what to do.

"Anyway, it doesn't really cost anything to try. I'll try putting the statue on the footprint, and see if anything happens. If it really is the statue of Blue Monarch in his petrified state, then it'll benefit me instead. I also have Void Rank in my hand. Blue Monarch wanted to let the Devouring Flame reach the Emperor Rank before coming back to him so that it could break the curse. Then, with my Void Rank Devouring Flame, it should be easy to break the curse. And as long as I can break the curse, the gate will appear in front of me again!"

Thinking like this, Alex was tempted to try. But he started hesitating again. After all, he doesn't know what kind of person this Blue Monarch is. If he tried to kill him for stealing his Devouring Flame, then it'll really be a big problem for Alex.

Alex is still too weak compared to Blue Monarch, an Extreme Void Stage martial warrior after all.

But... Is the danger really compared to the opportunity in front of him?

The value of Stone of Tomorrow is far far greater than the danger brought by Blue Monarch.

If he could get his hands on the Stone of Tomorrow, he would have a chance to comprehend a cultivation technique that could affect time itself in some ways. And he could also travel in the future just like the Tribe of Tomorrow.

After battling a war of words in his mind many times, Alex finally decided to take the risk. Who knows, if the Blue Monarch is a good person and might even try to reward him for breaking the curse?

But the chances for that are very low. After all, Devouring Flame was refined by half of Blue Monarch's soul. When the curse will be broken, half of his soul has been lost. If the Devouring Flame doesn't return to his body, he'll never recover his soul again. The loss of even a tinies part of the soul is terrifying. Blue Monarch might never be able to increase his cultivation base again, and his cultivation might start regressing before crippling him of his cultivation completely.

"I'll see what will happen the time comes and take action according to the situation. But first, I'll try putting this statue on those feet imprint."

Taking a deep breath, Alex waved his hand the statue of Seno Vikram appeared in the air. He controlled the statue with his spiritual will and put it on the imprint of his feet.

Surprisingly, the statue's feet were completely the same as the feet imprint. The size and the shape were also the same. The statue was perfectly seated on the Feet Imprint.

"It means Seno Vikram is really the Blue Monarch. My guess was right."

Alex immediately became excited when he saw this. Now, all he needed to do is to use the Devouring Flame and break the curse. But before that, Alex decided to look at Seno Vikram's attribute panel once again.
