Alex before he passed through to the space that he opened he first used his Phaseless Concealment skill, he change his aura, face , eyes, hair, and height, he now looks like a man in his late twenties but he is still using his hidden necklace but this time he put his rank at only the Legendary rank and not his true rank being an immortal.
Alex arrives as the center of the golds in the treasure vault, he sees an old man looking at him from a distance, this was the old man he sees when he was still outside
*Ringggggggggg*
Alex heard an emergency alarm, he now knows that all the people were already alarmed that he is invading the treasure vault
"Damn old man." Alex cursed the old man he didn't want it to be too troublesome and only planned to deal with the old and the guard outside if it heard them fighting, after that he will then quickly left before getting the treasure but sadly the damn old man already alarmed the emergency alarm that let all the people knows that he is invading, but still he still didn't back out because he had enough of it.
"What are you coming here for boy." The old man asked despite knowing that it is really clear that Alex was here for the treasure, he still called Alex a boy because with his age wasn't even a fifth of his age

When Alex arrive and notice the old man he then asked Sistine
"Sistine what's the strength of the old man, it seems to be the strongest I have seen before?." Alex asked
"It is supposedly immortal rank but I don't know this world's ranks that much, because you and that old man was although at the immortal rank base on this world, but in reality that is only the foundation of being an immortal in the future dear." Sistine answered while she also started explaining some things
"What? so we are still not an immortal?." Alex asked
"No, you are still not dear, what I said before that an immortal has undying body but in this rank that you currently hold only fasten your regeneration but it doesn't mean your body is immortal dear." Sistine said
"So what rank am I?." Alex asked
"It's the Immortal preparation rank dear." Sistine answered
"Immortal preparation rank?" Alex asked
"Yes that is the basis of your foundation when you become an immortal in the future dear," Sistine said
"What about the other ranks after this? is it different from the original?." Alex asked because what if the Arcana and Dominator rank is not the same too as it says in the name
"No, it's the same this is the only that is different." Sistine said
"I see? but what really is all the titles from bottom to top." Alex asked
"It should be Mortal, Celestial, Immortal, Divine, and finally God dear." Sistine explained all the titles in the universe
"I see at least I understood the gist of it." Alex said
"So this old man's body is not immortal right?." Alex asked again
"Yes dear, you can kill him without destroying his soul like you kill an immortal." Sistine answered
"Thanks Sistine, If I was still at the legendary rank maybe were I'm on par with this old man at least but now that we have the same rank I know that I can beat him in a one sided fight." Alex said
"Your welcome dear." Sistine said she was happy being able to support Alex
"Also with the power of Infinite and Nihility coupled with the Devilish cultivation, this would be over in no time." Alex said

"Are you an idiot old man? can't you see that I'm here for the treasure." Alex said with a mocking face
"Humph." The old man humph and quickly vanish from the place where he was standing and arrive at Alex's back and quickly punch him but before the punch got hit Alex also vanished
"Oh you know blinking too old man?." Alex said at the back of the old man and also used his fist and punch him, the old man quickly reacted and turned to Alex and confront Alex's fist with his own fist, they keep parrying their attacks, punch after punch and kick after kick, at first Alex almost couldn't keep up with the old man because the old man was adept in hand to hand combat, but Alex then activated his CQC and finally gained knowledge of close quarter combat.
Bam! bam! bam!
Alex and the old man parried blows after blows of punches and kicks that came toward them , Alex punch the old man's chest while dodging the old man punching his face but the old man quickly followed his attack with a kick, and Alex got kicked in his stomach
Boom!
After trading blows Alex and the old man both crashed to the other side after finally getting hit after parrying all their blows before, Alex crushed at the right side while the old man at the left side
"You have some strength boy." The old man commented wiping a bit of blood in his face
"Damn you also pack a kick old man, I didn't think that old body of yours still contained this much strength." Alex said
Alex and the old man got seperated in a distance after they got hit and crushed, both of them then stood up
"Hahaha I'm still not that fragile." The old man laugh while standing up
"This is my first time, someone can hit me, and also is able to parry my attacks." Alex commented while also standing up
"Really boy? it seems your life was boring if you experienced that." The old man said
"Not really, but at least I can see you are bored here old man." Alex said
"Hahaha, you can see that, it's the truth, I'm already almost on my death bed because of my life span, so entertain me boy." The old man said and vanish
"Though I'd like to keep exchanging attacks with you old man but I'm on a hurry because there are many people coming towards here." Alex said and straitened his posture
"At least let me honor your final fight old man, because this will be you death bed." Alex said and also vanish before saying
"Nihility."
