Chapter 447 Ritual Summon Activate!

Chapter 447 Ritual Summon Activate!

"Black Alex, what are we going to exactly do with these symbols?" White Alex, who had been mostly silent during the setting up process, was unable to keep silent once they had finished setting up.

His ethereally handsome face could only stare at the symbols on the floor with both confusion and interest, making it appear as if he had only few ideas about these symbols.

"Even with my knowledge on formations, I can only decipher a small amount of what you did here." White Alex further commented as his eyes carefully raked the scene in front of him.

"..."

"From what I can see, you seem to be... attempting to perform a summoning ritual." White Alex then blurted out after seeing that Black Alex did not make any comments at all. "Those symbols that you placed on the third and fifth circle looks similar the spatial stabilizers that Immortal Summoning Rituals use. That’s already a give-away that you are trying to summon something far away from here... Now the question is, what are you summoning?"

"..."

"Come on, Black Alex. Ever since you and Alex made this plan, you two have been secretive about it. Can’t you just tell me the truth now? After all, you were about to start summoning already." White Alex whined as he crossed his arms. "You know that keeping secrets is not good for your Dao. If you continue hiding things from me, then you will be the one who might suffer in the end..."

"Fine, you want to know? Okay, I shall tell it to you now. What I am trying to summon here is an Abyss Monster that has the power of at least a Peak Sixth Stage Being. Or if my luck is great, a Seventh Stage Being." Black Alex said in a slightly loud tone as he glared at White Alex.

Black Alex, who was formerly calm when he finished creating the ritual symbols, appeared to be irked by White Alex’s questioning.

"You... you are summoning an Abyss Monster directly from the Abyss Plane? Isn’t that... impossible?" White Alex had nothing to say but this question, as he was surprised with Black Alex’s confession. "From what I know, the Abyss Monsters from the Abyss Plane find it extremely difficult to live on material planes like ours, since they were based on emotions and sinful actions. Most of the times, they can only exist on planes that mainly support mind and souls."

"..."

"If these Abyss Monsters want to have an effect on material planes, they can only choose some talented individuals to wield the power system of the Abyss. These individuals will be the ones that will influence the material world in behalf of the Abyss Plane." White Alex continued to say amidst Black Alex’s sudden uncomfortable silence. "These individuals are called the Abyss Envoys, and original Alex is one of them."

"..."

"Since the Abyss Envoys were the only legitimate way for the Abyss Monsters to affect the material planes, how could you even think of summoning an Abyss Monster here?" White Alex commented as he tilted his head. "Even if you can summon one, they will just be unable to do anything in this world, since their bodies were not meant to live here..."

"..."

"Quite frankly, I think what you are doing here is just a waste of time." White Alex said with finality, which seemed to catch the attention of the formerly disinterested Black Alex.

"Failure? Hmph, puny Immortal Cultivator. Did you think that the Abyss did not think of other ways to resolve this problem? Do you think that after all this time, the Abyss Monsters are still stuck in their plane, unable to do anything? White Alex, you clearly underestimate the Abyss." Black Alex said as he crossed his arms too.

"Hm? So the Abyss Monsters really found a way to counter-act the restrictions of material planes? How come I did not know of that before?"

"That’s because this method is extremely dangerous, both for the summoner and the summoned Abyss Monster." This was Black Alex’s reply to White Alex’s query. "This special ritual that I am about to do is unpredictable and chaotic, that any preparations against it could be useless in the end."

"..."

"Even with all the preparations that I made, I only have 30% chance of succeeding here. With just that fact, you already know that this ritual could be the end of me..."" Black Alex said as he gave the symbols an apprehensive look. "So don’t complain if you don’t know this method. Only the worthy Abyss Envoys get told about this method, and only they will have to worry about this ritual...."

"Okay, since you said that you are fine with doing this, then I will support you." White Alex mumbled as he shook his head in exasperation. Since Black Alex was already adamant with doing this, White Alex can only accept it."So, is there anything else that you need for this ritual?"

"Bring out the four Moon Stones that Alina had just robbed from the museum earlier. They should be inside her Storage already." Black Alex promptly said. "Place them on the top of the coffin, with each stone facing a cardinal direction. Don’t mess up their placement, or something murderous might come dragging us to our death..."

"Okay. What’s next after that?"

"Give me the second item that original Alex bought from Asteria." Black Alex mumbled as he rubbed his hands in an excited motion. "The more destroyed that item is, the better. So if you can see that the item is intact, do things that will break that item further..."

"Noted. So, after that?"

"After that, just stand on the side and watch me do my job." Black Alex said as he made a shooing gesture on White Alex. "I don’t need you here to distract me while I prepare myself to be possessed by an Abyss Monster."

White Alex, who at this point, was about to step away from Black Alex, suddenly paused in his tracks as he heard Black Alex’s last sentence.

"Wait, what now? Did you just say that you are preparing to be possessed by an Abyss Monster? What the hell, Black Alex? Are you sure about what you are saying?" White Alex almost shouted out as he mulled over Black Alex’s words.

"I am sure about this, White Alex. You doubting it will just make the Abyss mad, so zip your mouth shut already."

"How can I shut my mouth? You are willingly giving up your body to be controlled by an Abyss Monster! Do you think that I can just accept that? My Dao does not tolerate evil happenings like this!" White Alex shouted out as he grabbed Black Alex’s collar.

Due to the difference on the strength between the two, White Alex was only able to ruffle Black Alex slightly. This difference made Black Alex look more confident with himself, something that White Alex disliked to see.

"White Alex, if I will not allow the Abyss Monster to possess me, then how will I force the Abyss Monster to materialize in this world?" Black Alex retorted in reply as he shook his head. "It is only by letting an Ethereal Being live in a Material Body that it can exist in a material plane. In this case, the Abyss Monster can only enter this world once I allow it to take control of my body..."

"..."

"White Alex, in case you did not now, it is only through the help of this Abyss Monster that we can fulfill original Alex’s plan." Black Alex wistfully said as he leaned his head back. "This means that from this point, we have no choice but to allow myself to be possessed. If I don’t do that, then all our plans will fall apart...."

"..."

With this argument presented by Black Alex, the originally livid White Alex had no choice but to suppress his anger, as he realized that the former was actually in the right here.

"Tsk, you stupid Dao freak! I thought that you are a decent person, but just like the original Alex, you are also a madman! Che! Why did I even associate with you two?" White Alex muttered to himself as he gave Black Alex a baleful look.

"So what will happen to you once you were possessed by the summoned Abyss Monster? Will you be able to regain control of your body once you need it again, or will you be doomed to lose it to the summoned Abyss Monster?" White Alex added this question before Black Alex could say anything else.

"I’m not sure about that. The Abyss... is quiet about that issue too." Black Alex hesitantly replied, making White Alex wince once more.

"So Black Alex, you will be going into this ritual without any idea of what could happen?"

"Yes, I will."

"Oh, I wish you a lot of luck then. You are going to need it."

"I don’t need luck, White Alex. With the support of the Abyss, I can endure anything that gets thrown at me..."

"I hope you can say the same thing once a monster starts controlling your body. Hmph, let’s see if you can still act tough at that time!"
