"Yes. That's the combination of my original skills."
"No wonder." Chavel smiled. She knew that the fact Alex had two different original skills from looking at his Mythical Spear Cannon and Triple Draws. And the fact that he could combine his Sword Intent and Spear Intent made this kind of approach possible in her mind.
"Now that I think about it, you have reached Spear God level, right?" Alex asked.
"Yes."
He thought since they were exchanging moves like training, he wanted to know more about her experiences as someone who reached Spear God level. After all, the knowledge in his memory was simply an ideal theory. He needed something like this to get a deeper understanding.
"Do you want to learn about it?" Chavel asked.
"Yes, if possible." Alex nodded. Despite talking like this, Alex and Chavel were still trading blows. He still absorbed every knowledge that he understood from Chavel's Swallowing Heaven.
On the other hand, Chavel was surprised by this person. Not only that his strength was extraordinary, his understanding was very deep. In fact, Alex might not need a long time to reach Sword God and Spear God level. He simply needed Divine Energy and got used to it.
Because of that, Chavel smirked and explained everything. "Since it's like that, I will explain it while we are at it. Firstly, people, who know what kind of requirement they need to be recognized as a God Level Weapon Expert, tend to treat their path lightly.
"Take the example of my spear. Spear Intent, Spear Domain, and Spear Body. These three things are the basics of the spear. If you don't have a solid foundation, you won't be able to reach far in this path. However, if they know about the requirement to reach Spear God level, they will simply skip this process.
"What do you think the requirement is?" Chavel asked with a sly smile.
Alex pondered for a moment and answered, "Divine Spear Technique?"
"You are half correct. There is something more than a Divine Spear Technique." Chavel shook her head. "That is the requirement indeed, but that technique doesn't need any Spear Intent, Spear Domain, or even Spear Body. You simply need to create a technique, and you can be recognized as a Spear God."
"Still, it's weird. People will only skip everything and become a Spear God as soon as they get Divine Energy."
"That's it. A good teacher will always hide about the requirement of Spear God level until the last minute. Even I need to discern your level first before saying this. Luckily, your foundation is very deep and solid, so you won't have a deviation in this path. As for those people, they will just get greedy and ruin themselves." Chavel nodded.
"I can't see where the problem is. Knowing that you won't need those three basics, you…" Alex suddenly fell into deep thought before gasping.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"As expected, your experience is plentiful to recognize it before I start explaining." Chavel smiled and admitted defeat. "Let's see the other two stages first. Original Spear Technique and Spear Path. You need these three basics to complete these two processes.
"For what? This is the foundation of your Divine Technique. Even though I said there is no need for the three basics, you can reword it as you treat it like air. Fusing your Sword Intent and Domain with the universe itself. Fusing your Sword Body to your Divine Body will grant you the power to control the Sword Intent and Domain that have been fused to the universe.
"In other words, everything is your sword, including the air. That's why the strongest Sword God out there can split a small lower world into half with a single slash. Of course, I only heard two people doing it. First was Peerless Sword God.
"He had honed his Sword to the absolute degree and reached God King Stage. With these two qualifications, he cut a small lower world into half, killing every being inside it. I have said it myself; you will get a qualitative leap in everything the moment you shed your mortal body.
"We are called God not for nothing. As for the other one is the Spirit God. I don't need to tell you the details, right?" Chavel smirked and continued. "Anyway, the first requirement to create the Divine Technique has been completed at this point. Now we are looking at your Original Spear Technique and Spear Path.
"What kind of spear do you want… Everything has been answered the moment you learned about your Spear Path. As for what kind of technique you want to make… You must have experienced it when you created your Original Spear Technique.
"Thus, you shall be born as a Spear God the moment you create the Divine Technique itself. And it won't be a failure or a shallow technique like those who want to skip the process." Chavel finished her explanation with a smile.
"I see." Alex nodded, absorbing the knowledge from her.
"Of course, you have the ideal technique right now. Not only can it be combined with your Divine Technique later, I believe you can combine both again to create a more powerful move. And with that instant three slashes… It's going to be an insane technique."
"I will try." Alex knew the requirement to reach that level, but now that he learned it from Chavel, he could say that he might be able to create the best Divine Technique for him.
"Good. I believe you can create one that suits your style." Chavel nodded with a smile. It seemed that talking about this lessened the awkward atmosphere from before.
"Let's continue this long fight then…" Alex's expression turned serious as he channeled his power to his spear, creating a string of energy hovering around his spear before disappearing due to the lack of power and control.
Chavel obviously sensed this and gasped as she looked at his spear. Although it was still rough on the edge, the technique was there. They simply talked for about thirty minutes, but it seemed that Alex had learned this technique from her.
She remembered what he said earlier as she muttered to herself. "Copy huh… It's impossible unless… No, it's impossible even if you have a deep understanding of the spear. No one has ever been this monstrous… Or should I say, as expected from someone related to the Spirit God?"
Alex didn't pay attention to her remark and kept pondering his current situation. He had brushed away the matter about God Level and focused on this technique.
Choong Duy, who was watching this battle from the start, couldn't speak due to the absurdity that Alex showed from the start. Since the two focused on each other, he slipped away to his house and wrote another letter.
When he returned, he found Chavel and Alex staring at each other from a distance. Chavel was panting due to the excessive usage of her soul and energy, but there was still a considerable amount in her body.
As for Alex, he remained calm even though he had been multitasking this whole time. And yet Choong Duy could see the excitement behind his poker face. It seemed he loved the technique.
He silently sneaked around them and continued to watch from up close.
"Let's end this with one last move," Chavel said while panting. "Though I can only use it for a few seconds, I don't want to limit myself in this last exchange. I want to see whether your technique or my technique is stronger. Can you fulfill this request of mine?"
"Can your soul withstand the burden? You need enough strength to help me in that task, you know." Alex looked at her worriedly.
"It's fine. I only need to send a wisp of my soul inside to help with the process… As for Divine Energy, I think my husband has more than enough for the whole family." Chavel shook her head. "In fact, this is why the requirement is to defeat only one of us."
"I see." Alex nodded with a serious expression as he raised both of his weapons.
"Triple Draws."
"Mythical Fire Slash."
"Space Cut."
Alex released twelve Sword Waves simultaneously, flying toward Chavel. The latter closed her eyes, focusing her attention and channeling her energy to the spear. Suddenly, the dragon appeared again. However, unlike the previous golden dragon, the color this time is green.
The dragon contained a huge amount of Wind Energy, allowing every person to notice its overbearing presence even without Spirit Eyes.
The dragon swallowed Alex's twelve Sword Waves, and surprisingly, the torrential wind inside the dragon was trying to shred his attacks to pieces.
Alex widened his eyes, seeing his attacks weakened as it penetrated deeper into the dragon's stomach. However, the conclusion came in a sudden.
"Boom!"
A huge explosion occurred in the dragon's stomach, releasing a scorching heat that would burn one's skin. As for the dragon, it was burned by the fire.
It was Mythical Fire Slashes that exploded, destroying the dragon as a whole. But he still had his Space Cut heading toward Chavel.
After having her attack destroyed, Chavel was left with nothing but a weak soul. She had reached his limit and could do nothing to this attack.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChoong Duy stepped in at this moment, trying to block Alex's attacks with his array. Unfortunately, his chance to act cool disappeared when he saw Alex's Spatial Gate appear in front of him, swallowing the attack and teleporting it to an unimportant place.
"…" Choong Duy was speechless. He just wanted to protect his wife for one last time.
"Fufu… Husband, what are you doing?" Chavel chuckled, teasing him with a tired expression.
"I…" Choong Duy just lost his face, not knowing what to say to his wife.
On the other hand, Alex was completely cool with it as he said, "You are going to use your energy and soul after this… It's better to have it as much as possible."
That was the reason why Alex stopped his own attack. From his point of view, Choong Duy and Chavel would seal their remaining energy inside a token. Since he didn't know how much they would need to fuse the energy for every single member in the Ancient Blue Family, he simply chose the best option available.
Chavel had a good laugh as she hugged her husband. "I think it's time for us to go."
"Yes." Choong Duy then gave everything to Alex. "Take these. They are the letters to the previous family head since he will need to act for this matter, not the current patriarch. I have told them everything I want, but I want you to give the blue one as soon as you come out of this place.
"As for the scroll, it's the technique to control the array. And yeah, you will get ten of the Divine Array. You can take one as another form of payment. As for the other nine… Two of them will be known to the entire family. You can give the other seven to the former patriarch so he would have a backup scroll.
"After all, there is no telling if they have an enemy inside the family. It's just a backup. The technique is not that hard. With your comprehension speed, I believe you can master it within a day. In that time, the patriarch should have gathered all Array Masters in the family."
"I understand." Alex nodded and stored everything in his space ring first.
"These are from me." Chavel gave Alex the Beast Fusion Technique and Swallowing Heaven. "Although you don't need the latter, you might still need it in case you want to read it."
"I think it's time…" Chavel suddenly stopped talking as she looked at her disappearing. She hugged her husband one last time and kissed him. "Husband. I am glad I met you in this life. If only we can get together again in our next life."
"I hope the same. Even if the potential for it is only one in a billion, I won't stop believing it."
"Me too. Unfortunately, every single memory and emotion is erased when we reincarnate…"
Choong Duy could only grit his teeth as he hugged her tightly. They poured their energy inside another token as their body slowly turned transparent.
Chavel smiled gently as she looked at his eyes. "If we truly meet again, I want a child."
"Absolutely. I won't make you lonely."
"I love you."
"I love you too."
The two kissed again before they turned to Alex with a smile and said, "Thank you." And disappeared.
