Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

“What do you mean how my Uncle died?” the Lion asked. “He died due to Qi deviation.”

“Did he?” Alex asked, getting more daring now that he had been caught. “Are you sure it was an accident and not a murder?”

The Lion’s face fell when he heard that. “You…” he said in a low voice. “What do you know?”

Alex was surprised to see the change in attitude from just angry to serious rage. It seemed he had brought up a topic he shouldn’t have.

However, that also gave Alex some idea that the Lion was clearly hiding from him something that he knew. Worst case scenario, the Lion was involved in his uncle’s murder and was thus trying to hide information from everyone.

“What do you know?” the Lion shouted.

“I know you’re not telling me the truth,” Alex said.

“Tell me!” the Lion shouted. His roar created a visible golden ripple that flew toward Alex.

Alex quickly used the All Swirling Elemental Shield while his body bled to form armor on him.

The attack landed on his defensive combined technique and destroyed it, before landing on his body. Coupled with his physical strength, the Blood Armor was able to protect him completely, albeit losing a bit of the aura in a process that Alex quickly replenished.

“You will tell me what you know instead,” Alex said and went in on the attack.

He threw out a punch to start, sending 4 golden spears flying toward the lion, who simply swatted it away. At that moment, Alex brought out swords from his ring, 75 of them as they formed his 75 Sword array.

The started spinning like a drill, powered by not only his Qi but also his Blood and Sword Aura. On top of that, he also added the Dao of Cutting into the attack, improving it all that more.

Midnight was at the front, taking charge as it flew toward the Lion.

The Lion frowned seeing the strong attack and his body started glowing golden. A sort of armor formed on his body, made using the strongest metal Qi he could produce at the moment.

‘Metal Dao?’ Alex realized. It seemed he had the same Dao as him as well.

The Swords slammed into the lion, who roared loudly, sending many swords backward.

Alex quickly pulled the swords back, realizing that his attack was nearly stronger than the Lion’s defense.

The Lion realized the same as well and started throwing out attacks of his own. He swung his claws, throwing 3 golden slashes toward Alex.

Alex teleported at the last second, arriving behind the Tiger with a sword in his hand that had no matter or weight at all.

He swung it at the Lion’s body, but the Lion suddenly pushed against the air and leaped away. He had managed to dodge Alex’s attacks by activating his own movement technique at the last moment.

Alex gathered the 75 swords and sent them flying back toward the Lion.

The lion turned around and roared at the last second, disrupting the attack before it was going to land on his body.

The Lion then created a large golden bell in the air that landed on top of Alex. As it fell, he used another technique.

Alex looked above himself and sent the many swords into the air to destroy it. At the same time, he saw the Lion charging in for an attack.

Alex was about to attack the Lion when he paused for the briefest second. Without hesitation, he changed the attack into his All Swirling Elemental Shield and turned around to send out a flying-blood sword at the other Lion that had appeared behind him.

The Lion swung his claws, creating a sword out of Metal Qi this time around that fought against Alex’s own Blood sword, and the two were destroyed.

“Not bad,” the Lion couldn’t help but say. “You actually saw through my double.”

Alex grinned and felt glad that he saw the notice thanks to his Demon Eyes that the first lion was completely made out of Metal Qi.

“You nearly duped me too,” Alex said and brought down his sword that he had sent flying into the air.

The Golden lion collected his Metal Qi into his arm and sent it above him, at the falling swords. The paw attack and the sword array landed, creating an explosion in the air that sent both Alex and Lion backward.

However, until the Lion, Alex was pushed back even more. He took a moment to gather himself, but the Lion was already next to him.

The Lion swung its claws, using another claw technique when Alex swung his arms in front of him. The claws and the Qi from the claw landed on the split space that Alex had created, stopping it momentarily.

The split space couldn’t handle the force and shattered, returning back into one uniform space, but that had given Alex enough time to create a fire in front of him that exploded with an unimaginable force.

The Lion was sent flying backward, even if unhurt, and Alex took the moment to prepare his next attack.

The Lion got a hold of himself and quickly looked toward Alex before his eyes went wide.

The Swords had gathered in front of Alex again. Only this time, there were far more swords than before. .𝙘𝒐𝒎

Seeing that 75 swords weren’t enough, Alex brought out additional swords, even making some with Blood aura to compensate for the lacking number of swords.

A total of 123 swords flew in front of Alex in an array that was the strongest attack he could produce at the moment.

After some decent improvement in his cultivation base and his Spiritual energy, he could finally, barely, control 123 swords at once to fight against his opponent.

He focused on the swords, controlling them as he poured Blood aura and Sword aura into them. Then, he added the Dao of Cutting into them to make them all that much stronger.

The Lion roared, trying to disrupt Alex, and while he did so for a second by having Alex focus on defense, he couldn’t do it for longer than that.

Once Alex added everything into the Sword Array, he sent it flying toward the Lion in the distance.

The Lion roared again, creating a massive bell in the sky that the attack struck. However, the 123 swords easily tore through the bell and landed on the Lion.

To Alex’s surprise, the Lion was torn through as well, completely disappearing as if it were a…

“Fake!” Alex realized, but too late. He focused his senses and found the Lion, but it was already next to him.

The Lion slammed his paw onto his chest, tearing through his blood aura to dig into his body.

Alex felt the pain, but he teleported away to make some distance. Even as he did that, however, he felt something wrong with him.

He looked down and noticed his body slowly turning golden from where he was struck. It was only on the outside, but Alex couldn’t stop it as half his body was encased in gold.

It would take him a moment to break through this, but it was not enough time.

In front of him, the Lion was preparing another attack. And this time around, he was using his Immortal Qi.
