"This... What? What happened just now?"
Not only City Lord but every single person present in the Star Light City was shocked to the extreme. They never thought their city to suddenly shift location and escape to a different place thousands of miles away. It was as if the City was aware of what was happening and was afraid.
But they all knew deep within their hearts that it was not the city but someone else's doing, someone who do not want the Star Light City to be destroyed.
In the eyes of Star Light City's citizens, only City Lord could answer what just happened.
However, they were completely unaware of the fact that City Lord was even more puzzled than them.
These people at least had hopes on the City Lord and thought that City Lord might know what just happened, but City Lord didn't have this hope. He did not even know whom to ask.
But then he suddenly remembered about the expert floating outside the boundary of Alex's tribulation cloud. He had never felt an unfathomable aura like what Fritz gave him.
While the entire Star Light City was puzzled, Fritz was shocked.
While Fritz was shocked because Alex's second tribulation came a lot sooner than expected, Alex was even more shocked. Alex was after witnessing how easily Fritz shifted the location of Star Light City.
Alex did not have time to be shocked. It is because the Tribulation Clouds above his head had already grown to 300 miles. It finally stopped expanding, however, the destructive atmosphere it brought along was something that affected this world.
Alex has no idea what kind of world is this, however, he knew that the impact of his tribulations will definitely do a lot more damage than anything this place might have suffered till now.
Fortunately, he was not facing the Tribulations of Life Destruction in the Essence Sky World. Otherwise, the Essence Sky World would have already been destroyed by now.
As for this world, it was big enough to hold Gods. How could mere Tribulations of Life Destruction destroy this world?
Alex was unafraid of the coming tribulations. He was also hoping to see what kind of special body he'll replicate this time.
But, his face stiffened when no beast of lightning formed.
The sky continued to rumble with destructive lightning for a short while, and then, something happened that caused Alex to tremble. In fact, even Fritz could no longer sit still.
The sky which was still rumbling with destructive lightning a second ago, suddenly changed color and became yellow to orange to red. This happened in an extremely short period of time. A hot wave of air along with a monstrous pressure assaulted the world.
The sky seemed to be burning now and its effect burnt down the world below. Everything, literally everything within the range of Tribulation Clouds started burning rapidly. Green lush forests suddenly caught fire, soon taking the form of wildfire. But this was definitely not the end.
The sources of water within the range of 300 miles suddenly started boiling. The temperature grew so high that lives within those water sources immediately died and even water started vaporizing.
The earth also started smoking. Hot steams rose from the earth which is the clear sign of the disappearance of moisture from the land.
Fortunately, no person or beast was now within the range of 300 miles. Otherwise, they would have also been burnt completely.
And it was all just from the First Strike of Second Tribulation.
Yes, this was the first attack of the Second Tribulation.
Because of the extremely high temperature, Alex's skin had already been burnt and his flesh could be seen by naked eyes now. His flesh had several places with black spots which was the clear sign of charred skin.
In fact, the skin on Alex's body had already disappeared. Now, Alex was in the form of a flesh human, and even his flesh was burning.
It is said the stronger a person is, the stronger tribulation they will face.
The same was happening with Alex.
Alex grew so strong that no ordinary tribulation could harm him at all. But if that was the case, how could the tribulation be called the Tribulation of Life Destruction? How could tribulation destroy a life?
No matter how much his Primordial Chaos Body evolved and awakened after devouring three special constitutions, the tribulation also grew strong enough to easily counter his special body.
Of course, Alex was only relying on his strengthened body, he had yet to truly activate either the Godfiend Phantom Body or the Primordial Chaos Body.
And to be honest, he has no intention of doing that. He was confident in withstanding the tribulation without activating any of his special bodies. It is just that, he has to hold on, he has to hold on with his willpower. The stronger the willpower, the longer he could hold on.
In fact, the current Alex was relying on his willpower to endure the burning.
The temperature was so high that it could not be explained with simple words.
In a very short time, the smell of burnt meat drifted in the air. Alex's flesh was also burning rapidly and his bones could be seen now. Alex's figure looked horrible to see.
There were several times when Fritz wanted to help Alex, but then again, when he thought of that mighty figure who once surpassed the limit of the universe he was born in and stepped into the vast starry sky, bringing several people along, Fritz could only force himself to stop.
"Alex is Alex, no matter what life and universe. He can definitely do this. I have to believe in him!"
Fritz took a deep breath and forced himself not to take action. But his hands were still clutched tightly.
Alex, who could feel the pain of burning alive, could not help but scream. His cream was enough to show his tragic state. His cream was so painful that it caused Fritz's body to tremble who was standing 300 miles away from Alex.
But still, Alex was inclined not to use any trick to withstand this strike.
And suddenly, in his current tragic state, he seemed to be stunned. His cream stopped abruptly. His eyes flashed with light but this light was too profound for ordinary warriors or even Gods to understand.
But Fritz was no god. He was someone who has already surpassed the line a God could never cross even in their dream.
He immediately understood what was happening.
"He has fallen into the state of enlightenment. He seemed to be comprehending something. But... What exactly is he comprehending?"
Yes, Alex has already fallen into an enlightened state. After replicating countless treasures from countless people, his talent had already reached a terrifyingly high degree. It is just that he never relied on his talent to comprehend anything. All this while, he only relied on the Replication System to simply replicate and fuse with treasures he wanted.
However, for the first time, when Alex forced himself, he entered a state of enlightenment and started comprehending something new. And this comprehension of destined to bring Alex's strength to a new height.
Now, in the state of enlightenment, Alex could no longer feel his body burning. He could no longer feel what was happening with his body or outside his body. Currently, he was already in a mysterious world of comprehension where an entirely new sky was about to open for him.
Time continued to pass and very soon, several hours passed.
Neither the first attack of Second Tribulation ended, nor Alex opened his eyes and came out from that mysterious state.
Currently, the flesh on his body had already been burnt completely. Now, if he had something was a skeleton that was also burning and internal organs inside that skeleton.
If this continued any longer, Alex might even die while still in the state of enlightenment. Fortunately, nothing like that happened.
A wave of reddish transparent energy flowed on his body that suddenly stopped the burning effect of the tribulation. The degree of temperature from this mysterious energy was so high that easily countered the First Strike of the Second Tribulation.
Alex suddenly opened his eyes. A pair of profound eyes glowing with shining light opened in a skeleton body, this was a terrifying scene to behold.
But when Alex opened his eyes, the attack of tribulation seemed to have collided with something and it shattered.
Just like that, the first strike of the Second Tribulation ended.
Alex extended his bone hand and a wisp of flame appeared. The moment this flame appeared, the space around the flame started distorting, as if the space itself could be burnt by this flame.
"That is no flame... That is the Law... To be more precise, the True Meaning of Flame Law. Alex has already comprehended the True Meaning of Flame Law and that is even more than 50%. How shocking! I never thought his talent is that monstrous!"
Fritz revealed an astonished expression.
It has to be known that Fritz is someone who is at least at the level of Atticus. But even he was shocked. This is enough to show how shocking Alex's comprehensive ability is.
