Gorgeous Jewel
Chapter V Chapter 169

The wind was getting stronger around the cave.

Like an eye appearing in the sky, the only place where the black clouds did not gather was the point above the cave where Alice was cultivating.

It's hideous!

Even that was a thrilling sight for Echidna. It was only the first time he had seen such a natural phenomenon.

Because not only did the weather change, even the waves of Mana energy around them became unreasonable. Everything moved around the cave in front of him.

A deity? Will a God appear from a hole in the sky?

Little more did Alice reach her breakthrough. When he sensed the immense force approaching, he quickly dashed out of the cave and flew up into the sky and stood right under the eye of the storm.

Echidna wanted to call out to him, but she was sure that Alice would not pay him any heed.

Selena looked up with widened eyes. The feather stands. It was unthinkable for him that he would be daunted by the sight before him.

"What... what really happened? Is all this human?" Askthemind.

Under the rumbling of thunder and lightning that struck. Alice stared intently upwards as if she was challenging the will of heaven.

'Come' That's how his view is implied.

"For quite a long time I've never felt the heavenly lightning. This time show me how much punishment you're going to give because I'm trying to cross the boundaries of this world."

All creatures have their limits, even heroes do. The heavens have set that destiny and the gods who dwell in it do not dare to violate the will of their creator.

No one knows that Aria is actually divided into three different worlds. The celestial world where the gods live, the mortal world where mortal beings live and the underworld are prisons for the damned creatures thrown into it.

While in the sky where the Gods live there is one special place that is difficult to reach anyone without the permission of the owner of the place. The place was named the supreme grand temple of the Chaos Creator God. Unfortunately, Chaos died of the betrayal of his son Erebos and kept the place sealed up to this day.

Alice, who was only a human, was trying to cross the boundaries of that world.

Impossible! No way!

But that was the name of the cultivator. They try to be immortal. Doing things that only the gods could do even defying the world's restrictions was natural.

THE JEDAR!!!

The sound of lightning struck behind the clouds right in front of his eyes.

Alice shouted out loud. "Why?! Do you doubt it?! I want to see what the heavenly powers of this world are like. That's why I challenge you!"

He put up his body without any protection and challenged the heavens.

Alice knew that the sky she challenged no longer had their highest figure. Nyx has told you everything. The gods that live in heaven today are only the creation of Chaos.

That's why he deliberately bet. In addition to helping him increase his cultivation, he also wanted to gauge how powerful the lightning god named Zeus was.

"I will use the heavenly lightning to strengthen my foundation. This is a gamble. My inner power has not stabilized when breaking through to the Divine Realm realm and now I have to use that lightning energy to force my way through to the Immortal Realm realm." Her thought.

Thunder is getting louder.

The sky looked angry at Alice's arrogance. The color of the lightning that was once blue turned yellow.

Alice smiled cynically a little complacently. The amount of energy he felt from a single lightning strike on it was not small.

"good. Go ahead! Let me feel the heavenly lightning punishment of this world."

THE JEDAR!!!

From three different cloud points, lightning fused together and grabbed him.

"Akh..! Ugh..!" Alice endured the pain that burned her skin into her bones.

Fortunately before the lightning landed on her body, Alice used her Qi as a protector. Otherwise, instead of strengthening his cultivation foundation and breaking through to the Immortal Realm realm, he would instead end up being crippled and crippled.

The sky rebelled and raged to see the look of Alice's haughty face.

Lightning strikes more and more intensely.

The rumbling of thunder that was so big as to make the ground tremble.

An ordinary man who was so weak was indeed very arrogant to dare to challenge his greatness.

Selena was in disbelief. How could there be such a crazy human being like Alice. But strangely enough, for a human being he could still be alive despite having received the lightning strike earlier.

Echidna and Selena gulped their saliva. The lightning in the sky is getting worse.

"Mama...What are you really doing?" Echidna's inner worry looked at Alice with natta shrivelling.

Selena laughed in her heart.

Selena remembers when the hero jumped into the middle of her enemy's ranks. He is seen summoning lightning from the sky to earth scorch everything around him. That valiant figure was still engraved clearly in his mind. At that time, he as a dragon race who was an advisor to Echidna did not even dare to think of going forward and facing it one-on-one.

The sky had thrown five lightning bolts in a row at Alice. But to her surprise, Alice was still standing in her place.

And then the sixth lightning came down to him.

From below, it appears that smoke is coming out of Alice's body.

The sky is calm. Even so, the black clouds still did not disappear.

Alice narrowed her eyes.

He knows what will happen next. The silence of the sky does not mean that the god has finished dealing with him. But he was preparing to fire his last lightning bolt.

The yellow light shone brightly in the middle of the storm eyes. They get together and get bigger.

Alice's guess is right. He then protected his body with a denser Qi.

It seemed that the ball of lightning above his head was not playing around and the god had completely run out of patience.

A moment later the ball of lightning stopped growing. With such a big voice. The powerful energy rained down on Alice and swallowed her body.

Echidna was hysterically screaming. "Mrs...!" He flew to try to get to Alice.

Alice's clothes were almost completely burnt. He is lucky because at the moment he really does not bring a change of clothes.

Alice looked over and smiled at him. Echidna immediately jumped up and hugged him tightly.

"Mom.mama... Are you all right?" Echidna asked frantically while looking at Alice from top to bottom.

Alice succeeded. His break-in has ended. The black clouds in the sky slowly disappeared and the rays of the sun shone on the land of the Wasteland.

Alice stroked Echidna's head. "Sorry to worry you. Now it's all done."

They slowly came down and landed.

Selena approached the two.

He was still a little irritated and could not accept seeing Alice treating Echidna like a child. But his tongue could not be honest to ask Alice to release the sticky Echidna on him.

Selena could only stare at his face while remembering the incident.

"What's Selena?"

"It's nothing."

As they turned around and planned to leave the cave, Elysia's arrival shocked them.

Echidna quickly responded and stood by Alice.

He had thought that the girl was running fast and wanted to attack his mother. But she was petrified when Elysia suddenly just yelled out to call Alice with mom.

Echidna put on an expression of disbelief as the elf girl leaped into Alice's arms.

He could not believe that someone would take his place. He just did the same thing.

"It seems you've failed again." The woman chuckled while closing her lips.

"A~ah. I can't believe that all the plans I've prepared carefully have ultimately failed as well." Reply to a man.

"Hehe... Shouldn't you be looking for a new pawn? Erebus or what his name is, I don't think he's very useful." Said the woman.

"Hmm. You don't have to say rude things like that. But he is still a god. Anyway I've prepared something for the next step." Say casual to the man.

"ah! You mean he is? So that's why you keep him here. Hehehe.you're really sneaky."

"You can say that, but you don't enjoy this game either. How, I'm not?"

The two laughed softly together. The man then glanced at the other male friend who was in the room.

"Hmph! I don't care about your bullshit. At least you're not bothering me." Said the man coldly. Then he left them.

"Yes.yes.yes..You're always cold as always."

They ignored the cold man's attitude. The two continued their conversation.

After discussing the next plan. The woman also said. "You are cruel. You played with the gods in Ard and now you're messing with the gods in Aria. There's no harm in you being called Paimon The Trickster."

The man named Paimon stood up from his chair. He walked over to see the view of the city from the window of the room and then muttered. "The next stage I've prepared. Now just look for the cast."
