Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Chapter 2042 An Explosive Outcome

Alex used the shield as it flew up front, immediately accepting the attack that was thrown at it. The shield was made in a way that it could store Qi within it. There was a large reserve within it, and Qi stored within it would automatically be concentrated to become stronger. That concentrated Qi could be used later to defend against people regardless of their cultivation base.

What mattered was not the strength of the Qi of the person who used it, but rather the amount of Qi within that shield. So, even as a weak cultivator, Alex could use it to defend against people of much higher cultivation.

A row of attacks landed on the shield, completely stopped by it. Alex put the shield down as soon as the attack’s hand landed and sent a sword slash across.

He couldn’t immediately defeat all of them as he was still supposed to be hiding some of his powers, so he only made the attack as strong as Immortal Ascendant 8th realm.

That was easily defended against by the group of cultivators, but that was his intention all along. He had something else prepared for them. Just as everyone recovered from Alex’s sword slash, a few things flew toward them, all at once.

3 pills arrived right before many of the people, and while some managed to react to the pills, it did not matter.

3 different massive explosions shook the ground, sending shockwaves throughout the area. Immediately a bunch of teleportation aura bloomed in multiple locations as people were sent away one by one.

A single one of the pills that Alex tossed their way would have been enough to take out a high Immortal Origin realm cultivator, let alone such weak Immortal Ascendant realm cultivators. It was something that Lan Douhan had used to distract and then kill an Immortal Transcendent realm elder back when they were running away from the Poison Fighters sect.

Such a strong pill was just too much for any of those people to survive against.

Or so Alex thought.

When the explosion died and the dust settled, 3 people managed to survive the pills. Two of them had used their life-saving treasures to protect against the pills, but the woman had simply used a pink hexagonal shield to stop the attack.

She wasn’t caught off guard by the attack, but she was surprised by the strength of it. Alex was somewhat taken aback to see her defend herself so easily.

She put down the shield but didn’t immediately resort to attacking. Instead, she looked at Alex with an inquisitive look. She wanted to ask something, but Alex gave her no chance. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

He turned around and ran away.

Attacking these people was one thing, but when the entire group was going to come outside to go after him, he couldn’t remain there. He wasn’t going to fight the entire group inside of the breathing garden.

So, he ran away, making his way toward the next spot that he had seen while coming this way. These people may choose to follow him, but should they, he planned on joining the next group and have them fight with him.

The next place was still a few dozen kilometers away. Alex slowed down when he came close to it and realized that no one was following him. Did the woman not tell them where he had gone?

He still needed to remain vigilant.

He called out Pearl, explaining the general situation, and both of them came to the conclusion that Whisker would have to go and check there too.

Now that he was a little free, Alex decided to check in with Whisker. Whisker had been going around the garden, mapping it as much as he could while trying to hide from the people. Their spiritual sense would not sense him thanks to the concealment technique and the Heavenly silk, but people could still notice him through sound, smell, or even just the lack of something in that general area of their spiritual sense.

If they noticed something off and focused on it, they would most definitely notice him and kill him. So, the surveying was taking a lot longer.

Still, he had managed to gather some information. He knew the general size of the group of humans there, the types of plants and ingredients that grew there, and the alchemical worth of the entire garden.

To his surprise, there were only 60 or so people in their group. He would’ve guessed hundreds if not thousands had he been forced to make a guess. ‘So few,’ Alex thought.

The fact that they were still left alone by the other groups meant that these people were either strong enough to be left alone with so few people, or the other places had just these few people as well.

‘I just took out over 10 people, how wildly did I cripple their strength?’ Alex thought.

Even if they had 100 people, with 10% of their group gone in a single scuffle, they could not afford to do it. Was that why they weren’t following him?

Alex checked in his Soul Space and saw 8 more of such pills. It seemed he was safe from people for now.

The other information he got from Whisker included the fact that there were different Alchemy ingredients inside of the garden and their worth. It was no different than what he had seen from the outside in both of those gardens.

There was one other thing that Whisker noticed that was quite weird about the garden that he couldn’t explain at all.

From what Alex could see through Whisker’s vision, a soft yet strong wind would blow through the entire garden moving in one direction, before coming back in the other direction, moving the plants to its motions.

Because of the wind, the gardens truly appeared to be ‘breathing’. ‘Continue searching the garden,’ Alex told Whisker. ‘Try and see if you can find the source of the breathing. if not, find any statue or monument that could have a text written on it or a saber hidden within it.’

With that, Whisker went back into duty.
