Chi energy fueled the twelve ancient runes of the forbidden spell in Alex Rockefellerâs golden core,
making them spin rapidly.
Alex felt that most of the injuries inflicted upon him when he charged out of the void rift and was made
by the void beast had generally recovered. However, his broken legs still needed a little more time to
regrow.
If he had ascended beyond the Immortalization stage, growing his broken limbs would have been very
easy. However, Alex was still far away from the Immortalization stage. In fact, he suspected that he
might never become a fairy. That was because his cultivation had remained stagnant at Peak-Core
Formation ever since the twelve runes of the forbidden spell established roots in his golden core.
However, Alex was incomparably shocked to discover that, ever since he acquired a slab of mud from
a womanâs coffin in Godsâ Tomb at the Undying Clan base, the Chaos Tree in his mind palace grew
rapidly like it had been given steroids.
Previously, it was only a tiny tree that was a few meters tall. Now, it was over fifty meters tall. There
were also many new bright green leaves.
It had suddenly transformed into a giant tree. Moreover, it was still growing.
The most significant change was the soil beneath the Chaos Tree. It emitted a holy light.
With that, the Chaos Tree continuously released chaos Chi energy to replenish the Chi energy in Alexâs
body.
âCould that slab of mud be the legendary soil left behind by Gaea when she created the universe?â
âIf it is, who is that woman in the coffin?â
While Alex thought about these questions, he retrieved the red string and purple jade initially tied to the
womanâs corpse. He believed that these werenât ordinary objects. While rushing away previously, Alex
saw a blurry alphabet inside. However, there seemed to be a kind of hidden law that prevented Alex
from seeing it clearly.
After thinking for a moment, Alex activated the spiritual power in his golden core and channeled it into
the purple jade. Not long after, the alphabet in the purple jade seemed to be affected in some way. It
began to activate.
âThereâs a door!â Alex increased the flow of spiritual energy.
The results were impressive.
The purple jade seemed to have developed self-awareness. It started forcefully absorbing the energy
within Alexâs golden core. It was even doing it at a breakneck speed.
Within three seconds, Alexâs golden core became empty.
âD*mn! This is even more impressive than a supreme juicer!â
Alex felt afraid in hindsight.
When Alex looked inside the purple jade again, he realized that the alphabet could already be seen
clearly. It was the alphabet âRâ. However, in the instant that he saw this alphabet clearly, the alphabet
scattered like ink. It turned into a womanâs shadow.
Wham!
Suddenly, the purple jade exploded. Alex cried out pitifully. The shattered pieces of the purple jade
nearly blinded him.
After rubbing his eyes for a while and tearing up for quite a bit, the pain in his eyes finally lessened.
However, the purple jade blew up without reason.
âA woman?â
âWho is this woman? Could this be an imprint of the woman in the coffin?â
Alex sighed. Looking at the purple jade that had exploded into pieces, Alex started cursing.
After all that hard work, it even sucked all the energy in his golden core. In the end, it didnât even leave
anything behind for Alex. However, Alex himself didnât notice an extremely dark shadow lurking within
his golden core, hidden among traces of his ancient forbidden spell.

Knock, knock, knockâ¦
âIs anybody there? Iâm coming in!â Doryâs voice could be heard outside the door.
Alex kept the shattered purple jade in his storage treasure. With that, he made his way out without legs.
Now that Alexâs cultivation had been restored, he was much more capable of protecting his own life.
