Doomsday Pillars

In Alex's previous life, the world ended in the 10th year since the apocalypse started but in reality, the destruction of the world had long started since the 2nd year, when the first tribulation hit the world. Back then, there were only dozens or so Doomsday Pillar that had been opened with the number who managed to survive against the first tribulation even less than that, making them the beacon of survival for humanity at that time. Even so, when the second tribulation came, none of them could resist the tribulation that led to the destruction of the world.

Since his reincarnation nine months ago, Alex felt that he couldn't stop thinking about a solution to prevent the world's destruction. Convince the world about the impending apocalypse before it happens, building shelters in various areas, gathering and training fighters who can fight in the apocalypse. Those were his ways to give the world better possibility for the future even though the odds still small, at least it was bigger than his previous life. And now, there wasn't much Alex could give anymore.

In the past few weeks, Alex has observed the improvement of his fighters, especially those Sky realm spirit enhancer fighters that showed the most astonishing progress.

Arief become more proficient with his massive sword, Jerry whose agility keep getting nimbler and faster, Aria mastering her dual elements even further, Sergei trying to improve his defensive capabilities, Dinda finding other innovative ways on handling fire, Ark attempting to be creative with his element, and the efforts of younger members, Daisy and Tommy to catch up with the older members.

After doing everything he could, Alex felt it was time for him to focus on his own improvement or he would fall behind. He went to the training hall and opened the access panel..

[Check Status]

Alex

[Male - 36 years]

[Sky Realm Level 1 - Initial Stage]

[Spirit Energy - Light - Initial stage]

[Spirit Aptitude - B]

Skills

[Hexagram Technique - stage 4]

[Advanced Sword Art - Dual Wielding]

Beside his improved B grade spirit aptitude, there is no difference between the current Alex and the previous life Alex.

At that time, the Hexagram Technique was the only special technique available to him. He has mastered the fourth stage of the technique which makes him superior when compared to other fighters.

Alex utilizes the access panel to show him his progress on the technique.

[Hexagram Technique Stage 4]

[A battle art that consist of 6 stages. The art included a Breathing technique that would increase the user strength and speed for a duration related to the person spirit force. The skill also consists of hexagram formation steps techniques, an advanced movement techniques]

This technique is Alex's main technique, a Tier 3 Battle Art he had acquired both in his previous life and current life. If Alex could reach the stage 6 of the technique, the effect would be massive on his fighting strength. However, this technique required a deep comprehension of formation knowledge which was a very intricate knowledge. In his previous life, It took him seven years to reach the stage 4. He cant imagine how many more year he need to reach stage 5 or even 6. If Alex couldn't find any other way to increase his strength, he would be left behind by others especially those with better aptitude than him.

Alex was reminded of an information showing that it would take two to three years for those with A grade talent to reach the next stage. Who knows how long it would take him to reach the same stage with his B grade talent, coupled with the Light element which is one of the advanced elements.

Because of this, Alex decided to move out on his own while the others left to complete mission. He knew it was a selfish decision for him to do so, but for those who lack talent it was the most effective method of continuing to develop. Through the crazy plan he prepared he hope this would be his way to keep up.

Alex then opened the second option in the access panel.

[Skill Library]

[Customizing suitable skills to learn…]

[List of skills available to learn]

[Elemental Art - Light element]

Alex checked out the list of Light elemental arts he could learn.

[Smite - Rank 3 Light spell - 3000 spirit stone]

After reaching the Sky realm stage, Skill Library would recommend a list of abilities suitable for them. In general, all basic spells would be available to all fighters based on their affinity, but it wasn't uncommon to see two same affinity fighters get different list of abilities.

For example, Theo who has the same element as Alex has access to the skill [Mind Blast - Rank 3 Light spell] which costs 3000 spirit stones. This spell creates a mental attack that will knock weaker enemy unconscious and temporarily stuns stronger enemy.

Meanwhile, Daisy who possessed censor talent had access to [Detect Life Form - Rank 3 Light spell] from the beginning. A spell that not only allows the user to locate the enemy but also shows enemy info, with more range and accuracy when compared to Alex and Theo's [Scan Area - Rank 1 Light spell] skill.

As for Alex himself, he had yet to get a Light spell that was devoted to him. Perhaps he would when he reached the middle or upper stage of the Sky realm, a Rank 4 or Rank 5 spells that were specialized for him.

Alex received twenty thousand spirit credits from his first try of the second challenge and an additional of eight thousand spirit credits that he got from the second and third try. On the day that the Level 2 Facility opened, Alex spent nine thousand spirit credits upgrading his realm and purchased the Light element manual and advanced sword art skill.

With his remaining 19.000 spirit credits, Alex decided to purchase all of the available light spells for a total of 10.200 spirit credits, which left him with 8.800 spirit credits. Alex plans to spend his time mastering all the spells and concentrating on improving his Light element until it reaches the middle stage.

Alex closes the access panel and enters the training room to begin his personal training. "One step at a time." He thought.
