332 Purification

\"AAAHHHH!\"

The others immediately opened their eyes wide when they heard Alex's scream.

Alex was rolling left and right on the ground while holding his head like he was in pain.

The spirits immediately looked at Anya and Anna since both of them were the authorities here. Sadly, they also did not know anything about this.

They looked at Mithra, who looked at them back, before shaking her head. She was also clueless about this. The golden lightning itself never happened in history, so she thought the only ones who knew about it were the people in front of her.

But looking at their clueless expression, she also knew they did not know about it.

All of them wanted to stop or help him, but if they did anything, they were afraid they would break something like this since they knew Alex would have something new every time he finished his tribulation.

\"Wait a bit more. I am sure nothing happens.\" Anna said. She truly hoped that he did not have an accident.

On the other hand, Alex felt his brain burned.

There was suddenly an influx of knowledge that came inside his brain. Because of that, his brain was overloaded, and it felt like torture to him. But he needed to withstand this and absorbed all knowledge that appeared in his head.

The knowledge was about the three big jobs: Alchemist, Forging Master, and Array Master.

His Alchemist knowledge contained many things. Medicine such as illness, curse, poison, body constitution, or even medicinal skills like acupuncture and the others. It suddenly crammed into his head at the same time.

It also contained the technique for making pills, such as the characteristics of medicinal ingredients, what kind of ingredients would be in good shape or bad shape.

With this knowledge, he realized how dumb he was before. If he had knowledge like this, he could realize that the black spot in Putri's heart back then was a curse. And he would be able to cure it before all of it happened.

Fortunately, it was a happy ending since she got something more precious than what she had at that time. She also knew who her enemies were and who her families.

As for the Forging Master, he could understand how to make a weapon. The special characteristics of metal and how to treat them. Hammering technique and heating process. Everything he needed to know about Forging.

In fact, with this knowledge, he could even become a Forging Master. Unfortunately, it was easier said than done. Even though Alex had this knowledge, he did not have any experience in that. Even if Alex became a Forging Master at this point and was able to advance quickly, he did not have that much time.

He would just keep this knowledge inside his mind, wondering if it would be useful or not in the future. But at least, he would understand how good the weapon was by looking at them. He might be able to buy something good with this knowledge… probably. After all, Alex still had a system that could grant him those items.

As for the last, he learned many symbols in the process. The symbols kept coming inside his brain. From one thousand… ten thousand… a hundred thousand… even millions of new symbols. His head was full of symbols.

He could construct a new Lightning Rod that could stand his ninth strike with this knowledge. Although in his mind it was possible, he might need to try it first to check whether it was possible or not. He also understood the technique of making an Array.

From this knowledge, at least he knew that the current technique that Maxwell used was the fastest. He would just need to practice a little bit more, and he would be good. It was the same as making the Array Plate or planting it on the ground.

Not only symbols and technique, but he also received many complete arrays that he could use at any moment. The arrays were classified as a neutral array or elemental array. In the neutral array, it was like his Death Song Array or Jadeite Mirror Array. As for the elemental array, it was like his Fire Strings Array.

Of course, he did not receive only fire type arrays, but also water type arrays, lightning type arrays, and so on. Although Alex could use it himself, he might encounter it in the future. And with this knowledge, he would be able to break the array as soon as possible.

After a few hours, Alex started calming down as the pain started subsiding. He continued absorbing the knowledge bit by bit.

The spirits and Mithra were relieved when they saw Alex were not in pain anymore. They knew that Alex had succeeded in whatever it was.

They kept waiting for him even after the barriers crumbled to the ground. And finally, the mountain was revealed to the world once again.

In fact, this entire terrain was the original terrain in the Nemu Forest. But because Maxwell made this barrier, they were never able to see this mountain again. But with the barrier disappearing, the mountain came to the outside world once again.

This mountain would shock the world once again, making the people come to this place for a treasure hunt. Sadly, all of it was already gone, and they could only come back with an empty hand.

After another half-day,

Alex slowly opened his eyes. He saw his Spirits, Anna, Anya, Leoz, and the others. Judging from their expression alone, he must trouble them this time.

\"I am fine,\" Alex said with a smile.

After hearing his voice, they finally let out a breath of relief.

Alex then looked at Mithra. He was startled when he saw her condition… No, her body condition.

There were cracks appearing here and there in her body. Her entire body would crumble to pieces in another few hours.

Alex did not realize that he took this much time to absorb all of that knowledge.

\"Senior, you…\"

Mithra only shook her head. \"Do not worry. I have lived long enough, and on my last day, I could see a person with a talent like that. If I did not see it with my eyes, I would not believe it. Anyway, I am satisfied.

\"Your two intents, the fusion, and even that golden lightning tribulation. It made this long waiting process worth it. Haha… sadly, I was born a few thousand years too early. If not, I might want to become your friend and follow you on a journey.

\"Well, even I could do that. I would not be able to keep up with my talent. Anyway, I will say one last thing to you as someone who has lived for thousands of years. If you truly live this long, I am sure there will be encounters and partings.

\"However, you need to keep moving forward. I have seen the look in your comrades' eyes, and they followed you because they wanted it. I don't know what kind of relationship you share with them, woman, comrade, partner, or whatever.

\"Remember this. You need to cherish them. After all, loneliness might make you crazy. I had experienced it after living a few hundred years in solitude. Although I never cared about it later, the feeling was still inside my heart.

\"So, be good to your friends and be merciless to your enemies. That is my last advice for you.\"

Alex nodded as he bowed his head. \"Thank you for your guidance. Senior.\"

\"Haha… Time for me to go. That bastard Maxwell seems to be alive and kicking. But with Skewes's cultivation, he should be dead already and reincarnate somewhere. Sadly, I could not join them.\" She said while looking at her hand that started crumbling to the ground.

Alex frowned when he heard that.

\"System, what will happen to her?\"

[She has used a forbidden technique, Host. That technique kept her alive this whole time. She should already die and reincarnate, but because of this technique, she did not. Ultimately, her name had been erased in that book (Don't ask me about this. This is only an analogy), and she would never be able to reincarnate again. In other words, this is truly her last.]

The system explained Mithra's condition briefly. Because the system was also overloaded by the information that Alex got from the golden lightning. So the system wanted to explain everything without giving him any chance to ask a question. Especially with that little note over there.

\"…\" Alex was startled when he heard that. He remembered that the founder of Heavenly Sword Sect was also like this. He could not reincarnate again as his soul would be extinguished.

Alex looked at the pitiful Mithra. He had been receiving from her this entire time, including her advice in his tribulation. He gritted his teeth and said, \"Senior. Please wait.\"

\"What is it? Do you want to ask something from me? You should make it brief.\" Mithra asked.

He did not answer her, but instead, he said, \"Anya. Could you use your True Spirit Body? I need to borrow your element.\"

\"Alex?\" Anya was confused about why he asked that.

Alex only said, \"Please.\"

Anya could only follow his word even though she could not understand his intention.

\"True Spirit Body. Light Butterfly Form.\"

She also grew a pair of wings like Anna as her transformation was the same as Anna. The difference was only the color of the wing, as her wing was the contrast of Anna. Her butterfly wing had a yellow, white, and golden pattern.

\"Light Butterfly Form, First Form. Life Link.\"

An invisible link that only Alex with his Spirit Eyes could see appeared between them. Alex felt the warmth inside his heart, and there was a trace of light that appeared beside his Fire Phoenix Seed.

He then raised both of his hands forward. Symbols appear one after another, forming a circle around them, then a big translucent yellow sphere, and many rings that contain numerous symbols on the outer layer.

He finally understood that the array was not like a magic circle, as it had many forms. This was one of them. A ring that was circling around Mithra's body, then a translucent sphere that surrounded her body, as well as three rings that were circling around the sphere.

\"I am sorry since this is my first time doing this. And it is only with a rank 4 Array. So, Senior might experience a little bit of pain. But senior, don't say something like that. I am grateful for your advice, so let this junior do something for you too. It is not your end, but your new beginning. Senior need to go on your own journey in your next life.\" Alex said.

When Mithra heard that, she was startled. It even made her tears fall from her eyes because she understood what he wanted to do.

Alex was using this rank 4 Array called Purification Array. This array was only useful for the undead that still had their soul intact. He wanted to use it to purify her and forcefully write her name in the 'book of reincarnation.'

That was the reason why Alex said she could go on her own journey in her next life. As she was an adventurous woman, she could only cry when she heard that she could do that again.

She might not be able to remember her previous memory, but her soul was overjoyed by only that fact.

\"Thank you… Thank you… Truly, Thank you…\" Mithra kept thanking him.

\"I should be the one who said thank you, Senior,\" Alex said with a smile. He then warned her, \"Senior, I will proceed with it. So please prepare yourself.\"

Mithra only nodded while her body was shaking because of the excitement.

\"Kh!\" She finally felt the pain after Alex activated his array. But this was nothing compared to her excitement. With that excitement, she could withstand this pain for days, months, or years.

But it was not that absurd as Alex only needed a few minutes. Her body restored to her human state.

When she realized that, she knew her time was up. She said with a smile, \"See you.\"

\"Alexander Sirius, see off Senior,\" Alex said with a smile as her body started to disappear.

\"Purification!\"
