Alex did not have to think whether he wanted to replicate the Undying Fruit or not. He knew this was a treasure that could only be come across by luck. He has no idea how Verom has come across such a World Treasure, but he was sure it might be related to 'time' as well.
As long as Alex could replicate this treasure, he could not only upgrade all his talents by nine times with each nirvana, even his cultivation will increase by one minor stage each time.
Alex is currently at the Initial level of the Holy Lord Stage. After Holy Lord Stage is Divine Lord Stage and then comes Divine Emperor Stage.
If Alex is to swallow the Undying Fruit now, with nine nirvana, Alex's cultivation will skyrocket and directly surpass the limit of the Essence Sky World which is the Divine Emperor Stage, and step into the Three Tribulations of Life Destruction.
At that time, Alex will have enough strength to leave the Essence Sky World and go to other worlds.
Without hesitation, Alex immediately commanded the System to replicate the Undying Fruit.
[Congratulations to the Originator for replicating a World Treasure, the Undying Fruit!]
Verom only had one valuable treasure in his hands that Alex decided to replicate.
When he heard the prompt of the system, a smile appeared on his face.
According to his master, the holder of the Tenth Blade of Hell is the weakest of all ten Hell Blades' owners. The current him might be an Extreme-leveled Holy Lord or even a Divine Lord.
With the Undying Fruit in hand, Alex had no longer anything to worry about. Coupled with the fact that he is cultivating Chaos Energy instead of Spirit Energy, this also boosted his confidence to the next level.
Now that he has replicated the Undying Fruit, he focused on Verom, wanting to know who exactly this person is.
He also had doubts if this person is the protector of the Stone of Tomorrow in the past, the leader of the Tribe of Tomorrow.
After all, according to the letter he obtained when he was inside the maze, the Leader of the Tribe of Tomorrow will have a chance to meet Alex.
"Who are you? How do you know so much about me?" Alex asked.
Verom smiled hearing Alex's question. He has no intention of telling Alex the truth about his rebirth. His rebirth was his greatest secret, how could he spill this secret out in front of someone else?
He shook his head and said: "As I said, my name is Verom Conner. You can call me Verom. As for why I know so much about you, it is because I could read people's fates and see their destinies. This is my specialty, but no one knows about it. I'm here just to inform you that you should not go to Eden Garden. The secret realm in the Eden Garden is a trap especially set up for you.
As long as you enter the secret realm, you are surely going to be trapped inside. And then, the owner of the Tenth Blade of Hell will come to kill you. So, if you don't want to die or severally injure, you should not go to the Eden Garden!"
Alex did not say anything this time, and neither did he show any kind of emotion on his face. He just stared at Verom for a while, trying to figure out if Verom is speaking the truth or not.
Could read People's fate and see their destiny?
Is there really such a good thing in this world that a person is capable of doing?
Well, there might be such people in this world, but Alex was sure that Verom is not one of them.
He doesn't have any proof, but it was his gut feeling that Verom was just bluffing. He could neither read people's fate nor could he see their destiny.
Then, the question is, how does Verom know so much about him?
There is also the information that Verom gave him.
Alex knew that Verom might be saying the truth about the Secret Realm being a trap set up specifically to catch him by the owner of Tenth Flame of Hell.
The time period of three years was already over but there was no news of this Tenth Blade of Hell. But when he just entered the Nine Star Mountain Sect, he heard the news that a meteorite has fallen in the Eden Garden, causing the appearance of a Secret Realm.
A meteorite is something that could only come from space. And the owner of the Tenth Blade of Hell is from a different world. It is not that shocking if he knew some way to control a meteorite and make it fall into the world.
"I have to go there. As you have said before, I'm looking for my fiancé. Countless people from several big forces are gathering in the Eden Garden. I hope to find Asna there as well. So, no matter what, I have to go!"
"Sigh! I knew you would say that!" Verom sighed and shook his head. Then he stood up and spoke again: "Then, at least be careful enough to not enter the Secret Realm. The moment you'll enter the secret realm, you'll be under that person's watch."
As he spoke, he started leaving the cave. But at this time, Alex spoke: "Why are you trying to help me? Is there something you want from me?"
Verom stopped in his track and a different light flashed in his eyes. He wanted to immediately tell Alex that he was stopping Alex not only because Alex helped him in his past life, but also because he did not want Alex to fall into the hands of the Tenth Blade of Hell. If that really happened, how could he still have the opportunity of snatching the inheritance of Frost Moon Emperor?
Shaking his head, Verom replied: "I do have something I want from you, but it is not time yet!"
Then he muttered in his heart: "I only need to wait for some time and completely go through the nine nirvanas. Then my strength will be above yours and at that time, I could snatch the inheritance of Frost Moon Emperor from you!"
Alex nodded, saying: "Then when the time comes, be sure to tell me what you want. If I could, I will definitely help you!"
"I will!" Verom smiled and then left Alex's cave.
After Verom left, Alex fell into deep thought. After a while, he stood up and reactivated the restriction before taking out the Stone of Tomorrow from his personal space.
He did not immediately take out the Undying Fruit and swallowed it, instead, he wanted to verify if his speculation is true or not. He wanted to see what the Stone of Tomorrow has to offer him regarding Verom. And he wanted to see what exactly was special about Verom that caused the Stone of Tomorrow to react upon his arrival.
Taking out the Stone of Tomorrow, Alex stared at it carefully, hoping to see something out of it, but he was disappointed.
Then he thought of something and injected Chaos Energy into the Stone of Tomorrow.
Suddenly, the Stone of Tomorrow started shining.
Alex already knew that there is a secret technique hidden inside the Stone of Tomorrow that lets one control time to some extent. And through the Stone of Tomorrow, a person could even travel in the future.
But Alex never tried to either comprehend the secret technique or go to the future. After he obtained the Stone of Tomorrow, he kept it inside his personal space. For a long time after that, he never had an opportunity to look at the Stone of Tomorrow, for he became busy cultivating inside the space built by his master, Valerio, for him to train in.
And after that, he went to meet Atticus who helped him go through the First Transformation of Primordial Chaos Nine Transformation, obtaining the Primordial Chaos Body and Primordial Chaos Bloodline.
When Alex injected Chaos Energy into the Stone of Tomorrow, causing it to shine brightly, Alex felt as if the Stone of Tomorrow was asking what he wants.
Does he want to try and comprehend the secret technique or go to the future, or does he want to know about Verom?
It was as if there were three options given by the Stone of Tomorrow.
When Alex felt this, he was shocked. He did not expect the Stone of Tomorrow to be . It actually was alive and could answer Alex's call.
The only thing he needed to do was to fill its hunger.
Alex could tell that the Stone of Tomorrow seemed to be hungry for his Chaos Energy. When he injected his Chaos Energy inside the Stone of Tomorrow, he felt as if there was an endless pit inside this stone. No matter how much Chaos Energy he injects into the Stone of Tomorrow, it will devour them all.
