Chapter 218 Ch 218: Stone Of Tomorrow (2)
Alex took his step inside the hut and saw that the simple-looking hut was extravagant from the inside. There was all need for luxury present inside the hut.
This hut was like a single room, there was no extra room, bathroom, or even kitchen. If not for all the luxurious items, this hut looked more like the house of an extremely poor person who can't even afford food for two times.
In the middle of the room, an exquisite table with four different ferocious beasts' engravings on its four legs. On the table, a pair of golden arms were placed, making the shape of a half-moon with palms. And a diamond-shaped green crystal was floating above the half-moon-shaped palms.
The moment Alex's gaze landed on the crystal, he was stunned. It is as if mysterious energy suddenly attacked him, freezing his surroundings space.
After a very long time, Alex reacted and let out a deep breath while breathing again. At some point, he actually stopped breathing, causing him to feel heavy on his chest.
He looked at the green diamond-shaped crystal and as expected, an attribute panel appeared in front of him.
[Treasure: Stone of Tomorrow.
Grade: ???
Ability: Glimpse of Tomorrow, ???, ???, ???,...
Details: Along with the birth of the universe, four supreme treasures were also born. These four supreme treasures are all four stones of different colors. The Stone of Tomorrow is one of the four supreme treasures with the power to affect time itself.

????
Note: Before acknowledging a master, the Stone of Tomorrow will let a person comprehend a sub-technique that could reflect and manipulate time to some extent. The one, who could comprehend the sub-technique will be acknowledged as the Stone of Tomorrow's master.

????]
Alex was surprised. It is because a lot of details about the Stone of Tomorrow are still unknown. Even his system was unable to detect it. It was just like what happened when he met Atticus Finch, the strongest person in the entire universe.
When he met him, the system only showed "???" in his attribute panel. And now, the same happened with the Stone of Tomorrow.
Alex just couldn't understand why.
It has to be known that he was able to see even his master's attribute panel completely. His master, Valerio Piroddi, who is an Origin Master God which should be a very very strong level of strength, everything about him was revealed in front of him.
There are only two exceptions till now whose attribute panel showed "???" in them. The first one is Atticus Finch and the second one is the Stone of Tomorrow. He just doesn't know what level of strength these two have to even make his system useless.
Of course, the details that Stone of Tomorrow showed are something he already knew. The only thing he doesn't know was the fact that the Stone of Tomorrow was born along with three other treasures of the same level and this universe.
Furthermore, it turned out that the technique, which the Tribe of Tomorrow tried their best and spend their lifetime comprehending but were unable to comprehend, was just a sub-technique, not the main technique.
But even so, no one was able to ever comprehend this technique ever. The difficulty of understanding this technique could be imagined.
As for the ability, only the Glimpse of Tomorrow was shown.
As the name itself says, Glimpse of Tomorrow should be an ability that could let a person see a glimpse of the future. This must be the technique that all the people of Tribe of Tomorrow used to see the future while trying to comprehend the technique hidden in the Stone of Tomorrow.
But to them, this Glimpse of Tomorrow felt like they have traveled into the future.
It was clear that they have misunderstood this fact from the very start.
Anyway, now, Alex could finally take away this treasure and make it his own. But before that...
[Replication Failed!]
[Originator doesn't have enough Soul Force to replicate '???' leveled ability, Glimpse of Tomorrow.]
Again, the replication failed. But Alex had already expected this that's why he was not disappointed.
Alex stepped forward and arrived in front of the Stone of Tomorrow. Taking a deep breath, Alex slowly extended his hand and was about to touch the Stone of Tomorrow when something happened.
The entire hut trembled as if the earth was shaking heavily. Accidently, Alex's hands touched the Stone of Tomorrow, and this shaking of the earth stopped instantly. The next instant, a wave of green light exploded forth from the Stone of Tomorrow and enveloped Alex completely.
Alex felt a tinge of pain in his mind, and the next instant, the scenery around him changed completely. He was no longer inside the hut, but he was standing on top of the cliff. This cliff was exactly the cliff from where the Waterfall of Tomorrow starts. But currently, there was no waterfall and no maze, there was just a cliff.
Alex saw a few people working on something hurriedly. These people had the mark of the Stone of Tomorrow on their shoulders.
Suddenly, Alex saw a person bringing a pair of golden arms with the Stone of Tomorrow floating above them.
"This is... How?"
Alex could not understand what is happening. These people all looked too much in a hurry. And now, they even brought out the Stone of Tomorrow at this place.
"Leader, those people from the outside world have already killed all of our people. Now, they are about to come here and attack us. In our Tribe of Tomorrow, only we few people have remained. We have to hurry and hide the Stone of Tomorrow. How and where do we hide the Stone of Tomorrow?" The person who brought the Stone of Tomorrow here asked in an anxious voice.
'Tribe of Tomorrow?'
Alex was shocked. It turned out that these people were the Tribe of Tomorrow. Then this must be passed, and for some reason, he was currently looking at the past.
Alex immediately understood that the Stone of Tomorrow is showing him the past.
But why?
At this moment, the leader finally said: "Don't worry, no one can take the Stone of Tomorrow."
Then he took the pair of golden arms from that person and looked at the Stone of Tomorrow with deep emotions in his eyes. He then muttered: "Alex, I hope we could meet at a time when the situation of the world is not this complicated. I don't know if you can obtain the Stone of Tomorrow or not, I was only able to see that you are the one who could help me revive my tribe. Let's meet in the future!"
After that, he raised the golden arms in the air above his head, fixed his gaze on the Stone of Tomorrow, and shouted: "Stone of Tomorrow, our tribe's ancestor was the one to find you in the Valley of Death. You were the one to choose our ancestor and make our tribe your protector. But we, your protectors, could no longer protect you. We, the Tribe of Tomorrow, ask you to find a place to hide and wait for the fated person to obtain you. At that time, you can make that person your protector!"
The moment the leader of the Tribe of Tomorrow finished speaking, the Stone of Tomorrow glowed with intense green light. The sky turned green and green illuminated the world.
Then, the sky suddenly rumbled with thunder and lightning and many changes started to happen in the surrounding terrain. A waterfall appeared out of nowhere and a vast land was also created so naturally as if it was very normal and nothing strange.
Alex then saw many giant vortexes forming and many treasures such as the beautiful lady's golden statue, and many such treasures all flew out from the vortexes and were scattered everywhere inside the maze.
He also witnessed how the huge pillar was formed bit by bit on its own and how the Gate appeared. He then saw the process of the Gate's key forming before the key flew out and landed in the Tribe of Tomorrow's Leader's hand.
He also witnesses many strange scenes that he previously believed to be the work of Tribe of Tomorrow.
After a long time, Alex suddenly opened his eyes and found that he was holding the Stone of Tomorrow in his hand and was still standing in front of the exquisite table. All the exquisite and luxurious things inside the hut were also the ones to fly out of the black vortex.
Looking around and then fixing his gaze on the Stone of Tomorrow, Alex muttered: "So, the rumors are really just rumors. The Tribe of Tomorrow was not the one to create the maze, it was created by the Stone of Tomorrow itself. Furthermore, all the treasures inside the maze are also the result of Stone of Tomorrow's actions."
Taking a deep breath, Alex tried to keep the Stone of Tomorrow in his spatial ring, but for some reason, he was unable to keep it there. Then he tried to store it inside the personal space of the system, but still, he was unable to store it.
This shocked Alex greatly.
