Chapter 1236 Eyes
In anything and everything that he wanted to do, he wanted absolute supremacy. To be absolutely sure this was exactly what he was thinking, he even checked a dictionary for the definition.
Supremacy was the state or condition of being superior to all in authority, power or status. Lex wanted supremacy in everything he desired to pursue.
Regal Embrace put him on the path to having the best defense in the universe, but Lex put himself on a much harder path. He wanted the best defense, the best offense, the best speed, the best of everything! Which is why, in any and everything that he did, he wanted to be supreme.
He wanted his Domination to be so strong, Dragons Might was compared to it rather than it compared to Dragons Might. He wanted his defense to be so impenetrable that all hope would be lost at the mere thought of overcoming it. Lex wanted his attack to be so devastating, just the thought of it would be enough to defeat his foes.
Whether it was his ability to manipulate space, or his ability to heal, or his ability to talk to a pretty girl without his mind shutting down, he wanted to be the best at them all!
Since his goal was to become the strongest so that he could run his Inn in peace, which was essentially an impossible, unachievable goal, then why should he limit his impossible goal? Why not aim for something even more impossible? So that is exactly what Lex did.
It seemed laughable. It seemed childish and out of reach. But Lex was already in the habit of doing impossible things, so there was no reason to stop now.
He formed his tenet of supremacy, and forever more the way he looked at and interacted with the universe changed. Every law, every aspect of the universe itself presented within his eyes as a battle for supremacy. He saw how each and every law fought with one another, pushing, pulling, enforcing themselves not only on reality, but on each other as well. There were no defined territories for any law, and every law in existence was simultaneously in war with every other law, doing its best to impose itself on every other facet of reality.
Ironically, it was through the chaos of that war that balance was reached, and reality existed in a stable form rather than a fluid, ever changing one.
The memory that had been sealed in his mind, of how the world was actually alive, unsealed, and Lex realized that even that was, in a way, a battle for supremacy. His understanding of laws suddenly deepened as his mind, now actually capable of holding information on the basic constitution of the universe itself, began to suddenly comprehend the nature of every law he had touched and interacted with.
He fell into a state of epiphany, his understanding of laws rapidly growing so much so, that he triggered another tribulation mere moments after his major tribulation had ended.
Lex had officially become a level 1 Earth Immortal, and before the process could even properly be completed, his tribulation for level 2 began. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The tribulation, this time, would consist of 18 strikes. The first strike fell, attracting the attention of the dragon kneeling before him, and the Wyvern out in the distance. But that did not hold their attention for long, as the final reason for Lex choosing to break through inside the Trial of Eternity came into play.
Every time Lex crossed a major boundary, he caused some kind of phenomenon. He had a feeling that the one he would cause this time would be far more exceptional and significant than any he had caused before, so having it appear within an independent, sealed zone cut off from the rest of the realm was a good idea.
Unfortunately, Lex severely underestimated the extent of the phenomenon he caused this time - after all, this time, he was directly connected to the immortal energy of the universe that formed his tenet, and so his influence spread across the whole universe.
The darkness of the Trial of Eternity, the empty space of the Origin realm, the sky of the Midnight realm, the Crystal realm, and every other single realm in the entire universe where humanoid beings existed, a phenomenon occurred.
There was a figure of a man, shrouded in gold and black, his features completely hidden. Only his eyes, closed, could be seen clearly, and since only they could be seen, they drew the attention of all.
Every human, mermaid, angel, devil, elf, dwarf, giant, celestial, and any other kind of humanoid race in existence looked up at those eyes, and felt a deep connection.
In the Primary realm, inside Gaia\'s graveyard, the being who stood at the peak of power in the universe looked up and saw those eyes. Yet before he could see the secrets they contained, he felt something veil the secrets behind a mystical shroud, keeping them out of reach.
His pupils dilated as shock filled his body. Someone powerful enough to compete with him had just woken up - something that was supposed to have been impossible.
"Bother my children no more," a gentle, feminine whisper spoke in his ear, and the man suddenly lost sight of all humanoid beings he had been keeping an eye on across the universe, as well as certain memories of them.
Any information that might allow him to determine the source of the phenomenon was lost to him, and so he forgot about Lex\'s existence entirely.
"Nuwa," he muttered with an angry growl. But then confusion flashed through his eyes, and he turned to look at the corpse inside his vault. If Nuwa was still alive, whose corpse did he have in his vault?
The answers to these questions eluded him, just as the sight of those two eyes eluded him. For a brief moment in time, almost everyone of significance in the entire universe was looking at those eyes, waiting for something to happen. Then the eyes opened.
