"You are lying. Do you think I am a fool? I have met another Pure Fire Element in the past and even a stronger one than you are. They can\'t completely suppress me!" The snake roared.

"We just have a different intensity." Alex shrugged. "I already said it myself, you could go to another planet under my influence. In that place, you will be able to go farther. However, you can also go somewhere else. The first option is just me trying to pay you for this eviction. That\'s all."

"You…" The snake finally saw Alex\'s arrogance. In front of someone with a Pure Fire like Alex, even he, a Rank 6 God Beast, couldn\'t stand a chance. No, he was just waiting to get slaughtered.

The snake gradually calmed down and tried to see it from another perspective.

"Even if you are trying to evict me, you might not be able to do it with the other guy."

"What do you mean?" Alex furrowed his eyebrows.

"There is another one stronger than me. He is a Rank 5 God Beast."

"Hmm?" Alex furrowed his eyebrows while thinking. \'According to the note from the Fire God, my Pure Fire can suppress anyone as long as they are still within the range…Which is five ranks above me. It should be possible to deal with this God Beast too.\'

Alex nodded. "Then, guide me to him. I will talk to him about this. If he happens to agree, I want you to follow my agreement. What do you think?"

"I-I understand. If I have a similar environment like this, I don\'t really mind any planets. I will even help you to inform the other beasts on this planet."

Hearing the promise, Alex removed his pressure, retracting his Pure Fire to his body. "We have a deal."

The snake smiled inwardly as if everything went according to his plan.

"This way." The snake flew to the sky with its giant body and used his fastest speed to go to another side of the planet, heading straight to another base like the one he had. It was really amazing to see a snake this big had this kind of speed as if he saw a bullet train flying in the sky.

It then released its Divine Energy as if trying to call the one inside the basin.

Someone, who was in slumber, woke up from this familiar Divine Energy and emerged from the ground.

"Lien, why are you calling me?" It turned out to be another snake like the one beside Alex.

Instinctively, the snake flew to that snake in tears. "Brother. He is bullying me."

"…" Alex narrowed his eyes and felt something wrong. Before anything happened, he summoned his Fox Avatar again, ready to suppress them.

However, a crystal came out of the other snake\'s head, protecting the two snakes from Alex\'s suppression.

"I don\'t feel anything wrong?" The first snake named Lien looked surprised. "Brother. What is that? No, that\'s not important."

The snake looked at Alex with a playful look. "Haha. Now you can\'t suppress us anymore. You will see how I beat you."

However, the other snake seemed to notice something from Alex, especially after seeing the Pure Fire that turned into a fox behind him. He hit the other snake\'s head with his head as if a brother smacking his younger sibling\'s head.

"This is why Father is always mad. You are too playful and don\'t want to learn anything." The snake shook his head helplessly before turning to Alex. "That fire is a Pure Fire, right? No, I should say it\'s not a normal Pure Fire. With how the crystal that is protecting me appears, it means you have a Godly Pure Fire. How are you related to Grandmaster Phitrus, the Fire God."

"!!!" Alex and Lien widened their eyes, never expecting that he uttered such a name from his mouth, of course, for their respective reasons.

"Godly Pure Fire? Isn\'t that the fire of our father\'s master?" Lien commented in shock.

Meanwhile, Alex became even more conscious of these two snakes. \'Their father\'s master?\'

He prepared a Teleportation Array in the Array Plate to escape if something happened. At the same time, he thought for the best answer.

Seeing there was no answer from Alex, the snake changed his question. "Since you don\'t want to answer that, I only want to know where you got that ability, Fire Authority."

"…" Alex remained silent for a minute before opening his mouth. "From Phitrus. I met his soul and received this."

"…" The snake narrowed his eyes. "I still can\'t believe you. There is another way to prove your identity, your name and the Second Form of Fire Authority. There is no way a half-baked technique can have the second form. I have my own information, so I know whether you are lying or not."

After contemplating for a while, he decided to answer his question honestly. "I can\'t show any of that. First of all, I come here to achieve the second form, the Fusion Stage, Fire Embodiment. As for my name, I can\'t tell you because I don\'t even know your identity. There is a risk for me doing that, considering that you have parents that must be stronger than you."

The snake nodded. "Since you already know about the Fusion Stage, I will reluctantly accept your answer and don\'t ask about your name. However, I would like to make a deal with you."

"What is it?"

"That is something after you achieve the second form. You can absorb the Fire Energy in this world, and I promise not to do anything to you. In exchange, I want to see the evolution with my own eyes to see whether you are telling the truth or not."

Before Alex had a chance to think about the offer, Lin Xingzhi said.

[I think I have seen this red snake in the past. It was one of Phitrus\'s God Beasts. As you know, Phitrus didn\'t have a home since he kept traveling from one world to another. However, he was by no means a weak force to be reckoned with. The reason for that is the ten beasts following his side. I don\'t know the details, but I thought they were bonded by the Life and Death Contract. Maybe you want to see if they are their children or not and hinted to check more information.]

Reading the notification, Alex asked, prying for information. "Are you the children from one of the ten Fire God Beasts that followed Phitrus in the past?"

"Hmm? You are not that clueless, aren\'t you?"

"I see. You are lying then. The Ten Beasts couldn\'t survive when their master died." Alex narrowed his eyes.

"You don\'t even know what your flame can achieve? If you want the answer, you should achieve the second form. I will also get my answer. And to clarify your statement, Father and Mother indeed had a Life and Death Contract."

"You are this mysterious, and you expect me to trust you?"

"By Heaven and Earth as my witness, I, Ragi, promise that I won\'t harm or do anything that can potentially harm the person in front of me and prevent any kind of danger that will befall him while he is undergoing his training to achieve the second form of the Fire Authority, the Fusion Stage, Fire Embodiment." The universe seemed to acknowledge that promise which meant it was true.

This stunned Alex. If he backed down from this deal, he would be further away from the truth. Since there was a guarantee that no one would be able to harm him, especially from a Rank 5 God, he thought this was a good opportunity to complete his training.

After pondering for a while, Alex said. "Fine. I will do it."

[You sure?]

\'Yes. You can know what I am doing, right? If something happens, you can send Zark here. After all, he is currently on stand-by, no? Considering he is going to teleport all the beasts on this planet to a new one.\' Alex replied in his thoughts.

[I understand.]

Ragi nodded. "In that case, you can choose any place to do it."

Alex looked around and picked a random place where the Fire Energy concentrated. It was in a mountain that had gradually turned into molten lava, shrinking the mountain size to a tenth of its original size.

The snake furrowed his eyebrows when he easily chose a spot, but he could only wait for Alex to complete his training to get his answer.

"Eve." Alex still couldn\'t fully trust them, so he called Eve.

Knowing what to do, Eve used the energy in her body and summoned one dragon from the Sword, circling around Alex like a snake.

"What? Even my brother has assured you that nothing will happen to you, you still don\'t trust him?!" Lien snarled before getting smacked again by Ragi. "What are you doing, Brother?"

"You are grounded after this. I will absolutely talk to Father about this." Ragi shook his head helplessly.

"Eh?!" Lien looked as if she was wronged and glared at Alex, the source of the problem.

On the other hand, Alex didn\'t pay attention to them anymore as he summoned his Pure Fire and spread around himself.

The Pure Fire absorbed the Fire Energy. As if it was connected with each other, the Fire Energy from all over the world began moving toward his place like there was a black hole over there.

This only strengthened Ragi\'s understanding of Alex. He began to believe that it was the true Fire Authority.

"Brother…" Lien furrowed her eyebrows, wanting to get an explanation.

"You might not know about this, but Father told us to be respectful to the one having a Godly Pure Fire. And to check whether he indeed has this fire, we would need to check his Fire Authority. If the two forms are real, then he is indeed someone who has that fire. After all, the Godly Pure Fire is the requirement for someone to cultivate the Fire Authority."

"Eh?" Lien seemed to be unwilling to recognize Alex.

"That\'s why you should learn more about the state of this universe and other things." He sighed.

"But our fate is not decided by the past. We are the ones who should decide it ourselves."

"I didn\'t say something like that, no? What I want is to let Father see him. I don\'t know why, but Father seems to have something to say. "

Lien looked at her brother with a weird expression before sighing. "Fine. I won\'t say anything about this anymore. You are going to be responsible for this."

"I know. Besides, can\'t you feel it?" He asked.

"What?" Lien tilted her head in confusion. She didn\'t feel anything from Alex anymore.

"You are indeed ignorant. You need to be more aware of your surroundings, not only focusing on your cultivation stage." He sighed. "Our instinct is one of the strongest in the universe, but you can\'t even find someone right outside the planet, observing him and our movements?"

She fell silent and tried to sense that person, only to get surprised by what she found. There was a Rank 3 God right outside the planet.

"He has been standing there for a while. It seems he is someone important." Ragi didn\'t know how to educate his sister anymore. "Anyway, don\'t show more hostility to him because we might be killed."

Suddenly, the Fire Energy became even denser, and Alex entered his cultivation fully. The Pure Fire turned into a fox and cultivated the Fire Energy to make itself stronger.

"Look, he is entering the longest part. You should start cultivating too because it will be beneficial for you. You are almost a Rank 5 God anyway, so I believe you can reach Rank 5 God during this time. Besides, I promised to protect him, but taking advantage of this situation is not in the promise and it\'s not detrimental for him either, so go cultivate now."
