Chapter 1091: Black Hole?

A few days later, Alex stood not far from the planet, watching how his spaceships started retreating in order.

Lin Xinzhi was the only one next to him, overseeing the entire process.

"How can they return? I mean, it will be a long journey..." Alex narrowed his eyes.

"Don't worry. We have our own way." Lin Xingzhi smiled before pointing at the farthest ship. "Watch that one."

Alex turned around and saw the ship's arrays begin to glow, creating a giant formation. Taking another look at the symbols, Alex realized that they were Teleportation Formation that seemed to be made by a thousand Teleportation Arrays.

"This is..." Alex furrowed his eyebrows when the ship suddenly disappeared, crossing the space like nothing.

"Yep. It's a jump. Just like your Teleportation Array, the ship can jump like that as long as you know how far your destination is and the location." She smiled. "Unfortunately, we can only do it once in a while, considering the amount of Spirit Crystals that are used to do one teleport. Even though half of the Spiritual Energy comes from the Martial Saints and God Rank Experts inside the ship, it's still an enormous amount."

"I can understand. Not only do we need to teleport tens of thousands of people, but we also need to send that giant ship together. With that kind of distance, I can understand how much money you burn every single teleportation." Alex nodded with a serious expression.

"Do you want to go back with the ship?" Lin Xingzhi asked.

"Because everyone is here, no one is controlling the system right now. You said that the system knows the location of the inheritance, right?" Alex glanced at her. His tone was calm and his expression was flat as though he had prepared to go for at least a year.

"Not the location. Just the direction. But I am sure you can reach that place in an instant." She smiled.

"Alright. Let's go back then." Alex snapped his finger. "We will go back with this... Is that alright with you?"

"It will only take three hours." Lin Xingzhi stretched her hands before nodding her head. "Let's go."

Alex activated the Teleportation Array as the two disappeared.

...

Three hours later, Alex and Lin Xingzhi arrived in front of the castle. Korzan had been standing in front of the gate for a while, waiting for Alex to appear.

"Your Majesty." Korzan fell on his knees, lowering his head.

"Thank you for taking care of Eulja while I was away." Alex nodded.

"Your words are wasted on me. Still, congratulations, Your Majesty, for achieving your first victory. Everyone has gotten the news and celebrated."

"Unfortunately, I can't celebrate together with you." Alex shook his head. "I need to go somewhere before I can relax."

"I understand." Korzan raised from the ground and stretched his hand to the opened gate. "Please come in, Your Majesty."

"Do you have any information about the other Divine Worlds?" Alex asked with a serious expression. God Kings would be his priority in this case, because he didn't want them to sneak attack Eulja.

"Yes, I have. From our spies, we have concluded that the Holy God has been gathering other God Kings to stop you."

"What?" Lin Xingzhi furrowed her eyebrows. "Isn't the Holy God..."

"Yeah. This shocked me as well. However, we can safely assume that the Holy God simply wants to stop His Majesty from killing. Although his goal is good, it depends on who he talks to. Hence, I have been directing a few of our spies there."

Alex thought for a moment and asked. "How many God Kings will participate?"

"We are not sure at the moment."

"Get the number as quickly as possible. For the time being, the Life and Death Goddess is trying her best to regain her power, so I won't consider her a combatant. Hence, we only have two at the moment and two or three more if needed. However, I don't wish to show my trump card this soon."

Korzan lowered his head. "I will do my best."

Alex nodded before signaling Lin Xingzhi to go to her room, so she could direct the system again.

After getting separated from Korzan, Lin Xingzhi and Alex arrived in her room within three minutes. She pushed open the door and activated the system.

Alex simply couldn't understand what she was doing other than the bigger screen that showed his current vision. "So, that's the stalker screen..."

"Ahaha." Lin Xingzhi looked away, feeling embarrassed to get found out like this. Although Alex had known about this for a long time, he never saw it himself. It really made her a bit embarrassed.

"Anyway, here we go." Lin Xingzhi pressed another key before a blue screen appeared in front of him.

It showed a small arrow that was pointing slightly to the north. "Hmm. I think it's fine. I can start following it right now."

"You want to say goodbye to the others first?"

"I have said it back on another planet. I will go as soon as possible, so I can return faster." Alex smiled while shaking his head.

"I understand. Do you want to pass a message to them before going?"

Alex fell silent and nodded. "Tell Anna and Anya to increase their cultivation speed. I am afraid that there will be too many challenges we are going to face in the near future. Rose is to do the same thing and quickly receive the Bow God's inheritance.

"Can you tell Sherry about the plan of her Sacrificial Pure Fire? If she doesn't wish to do so, then forget it. As for Evelyn and Letizia, I think it's best to let them practice under William for the time being. As for Silvia, I am sorry, I will pay it all after I return from this trip."

"Sure." Lin Xingzhi noted it down. "I will pass it to them as soon as I have met them."

"Good. Thanks." Alex nodded before snapping his finger. The Teleportation Array appeared beneath his feet. When he was about to get teleported, Alex opened his mouth for one last time. "And Xingzhi..."

"Hmm?" Lin Xingzhi turned to him again after storing the note in her Space Ring.

"I love you." Alex waved his hand while smiling before he disappeared.

Lin Xingzhi only smiled and shook her head helplessly.

Meanwhile, Alex had started teleporting according to the direction that the system gave him.

Alex was surprised when he realized that three days had passed, but he had yet to arrive at his location. But it all changed when Alex found a black hole standing in front of him.

"..." Alex looked left and right while commenting. "That one is quite big, twice as big as the black hole that I used to go to Encore. I need to go around it."

Alex shook his head in disappointment before he noticed the movement of the arrow on his screen.

"What?!" He simply couldn't believe it.

The arrow was pointing at the black hole. After doing several more teleportations, the arrow kept pointing at it even though he had teleported in another direction. In other words, he really needed to go through the black hole.

"Am I going to another universe? But I don't think the Array God will send its inheritor to another universe, so what is this?" Alex pinched the bridge of his nose. "I guess I should enter before someone spots me."

Alex then entered the black hole's range as he quickly felt the pulling force that tried to attract him to the black hole.

After taking another deep breath, he entered the black hole and arrived in the same black environment with nothing that could be seen. He activated his Spirit Eyes and so many colors began to appear in his vision.

"..." Alex looked around while checking his body. Like the previous black hole, the gravitational force was trying to crush his body, but now that he reached Rank 5 God, his body was far stronger. He didn't feel restricted anymore.

"Hmm. I can stay here for one hour this time, so I guess I should just follow the direction? Well, the gravitational force here is pulling me toward the same direction as my destination, so I guess I shouldn't fight the force. Instead, I should boost my speed by going the same direction, allowing me to reach my destination faster." Alex decided with a smile.

With him flying toward the same direction, Alex's speed began to surpass what his body could handle. However, Alex remained calm as though he didn't experience any pain.

His Pure Fire gushed out of his body and became one layer of protection for his body.

After reaching his limit, he began to slow down and focused on the arrow. He really wanted to see what universe he needed to go just to get the Dungeon God's inheritance."

The wonder kept lingering in his heart until the arrow suddenly moved.

"!!!" Alex prepared to change his direction, only to find that there was no tunnel around here. Everything was empty as if this was only a one way trip.

"Eh? What should I do?" Alex fell into deep thought while watching that direction. He could see boundless energy inside the black hole despite not being part of it, yet, this energy was outside the border.

Out of curiosity, he once threw a Divine Weapon outside the black hole, only to find it snapped into two. A Divine Weapon shouldn't have a problem with withstanding the pressure of the black hole. So, with the weapon ending up like that, the force would be far stronger than what his body could handle.

He started to panic when he was about to pass that mysterious place, as a ridiculous thought appeared in his mind. "Ehm, seriously?"

"This is the most ridiculous thing that I have ever thought." Alex sweatdropped as he contemplated whether he wanted to do this or not.

The moment he passed it, he stretched his hand and tried to summon a Spatial Gate.

What he thought earlier was the possibility of him using his special Space Element. From what he understood, any elements would be unstable. Even his Pure Fire would get suppression in this giant tunnel and yet, he wondered whether his Spatial Gate could operate in this tunnel.

What happened next shocked him. The Spatial Gate, although unstable, was able to form completely. He should be able to cross this Spatial Gate if he wanted.

"Should I go? I don't know if this works, but I don't think there is another answer other than this. After all, Xingzhi said that no one has ever found the Dungeon God's palace. If this were the palace, no wonder that only the wielder of the system could enter it."

After contemplating for a few seconds as their position aligned in a perfect line, Alex created another portal that led to his portal in the mysterious energy chunk outside the border.

"What?!" Alex widened his eyes. What he found shouldn't be possible. He could see green scenery filled with tall grass. There were many flowers in different colors. His instinct told him one word. "Jump!"

Alex followed his instinct without hesitation and crossed the portal.

Due to the gravitational force from the black hole, many flowers entered the tunnel before almost everything inside it got pulled.

Luckily, Alex quickly closed the portal, leaving only a one-kilometer wide barren land. Outside the barren land still had grasses and flowers, so the result was quite satisfying as it didn't destroy this place completely.

"No wonder no one can find it. The only Space Element that can create a Spatial Gate in a black hole is this Special Space Element. Even my Pure Fire is suppressed by the black hole, so Pure Space Element shouldn't be able to find its way here too." Alex let out a long sigh.

He looked around the place as his expression turned serious. Outside this flower field, he found a forest in his right, a desert in his front, a rocky mountain in his left, and a barren land behind him. He couldn't help but mutter, "Interesting."
