Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Chapter 2057 Ren Muwen

The sudden arrival of another group behind the ones that fought was a devastating blow for Alex’s group. As soon as they appeared, the battle that was only starting suddenly became far more chaotic and attacks began flying in every direction.

Alex turned toward the few people that remained, of which a young girl whispered something into the ear of the woman in a light green robe who stared at Alex.

She had already noticed him as he was the only one who had survived their sudden attacks, but the words she heard next did much more to grab her attention.

“They put you up to fight me?” the woman asked, stepping forward. “Nobody interferes. I’ll take care of him myself,” she said. Alex looked at her and took a step back, creating some distance. His eyes moved to the young girl who had spoken to the woman. His eyes flashed purple and he saw the lingering aura near the woman.

The air was filled with multiple colors, with some specks of silver in there now, but when he focused on the young girl, the color of the aura he saw around her was the same as the one he had seen on the young man who had been their scout.

‘So he was never our scout?’ Alex wondered, not understanding the situation as clearly as he hoped.

He pulled the shield in front of him at the very next moment as an attack came flying toward him. The shield stopped the attack right in time.

“Care to come out of the shield and fight me?” the woman said.

“Maybe I should fight him,” the other girl from behind the woman said, wearing the blue robes of the Blue Silk sect. “He’s from my sect, so I should take care of it.”

“No, I will do it,” the woman replied. “Apparently, he told their group that he could handle me.”

“If that’s the case, then he plans to keep you busy with that shield of his,” the woman said. “Attack long enough and the shield won’t work anymore.”

“Thank you for the advice,” the woman said with an ambiguous smile. “You can go join the fight now.”

The remaining people flew, the man in pink robes not even sparing a single glance at Alex.

Alex looked at the woman and the lack of friends around her. He thought for a moment and released the fist he had been making this entire time. The pill he was ready to throw wouldn’t work on her alone. She was bound to have a defensive treasure.

According to Miao Wupeng, their defensive treasures weren’t like those of the Blue Silk sect or Rosesteel sect and had to be primed each time it was used. It was easier to prime and could be done in just a few minutes of free time, and didn’t take months or years like the shields, but if you did get them to use it up once, it was useless for the rest of the fight.

Alex had to aim for that, and then he would have a chance at victory. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

The woman used no weapons, just a tiny compressed ball of Wood energy that shot at him like bullets. They appeared around her endlessly, shooting out at nearly imperceptible speed.

However, thanks to Alex’s eyes, he could not only see them, but he could also see them move at a slower speed than they were really moving. It was less so that his eyes were seeing at a slowed speed, but that they were making it easier for his mind to process the information faster.

Alex dodged a few attacks, taking the rest of it with the shield. He then swung back, releasing a dark sword slash.

The woman’s eyes widened when she sensed the strength of the attack. It was so strong that she had to actually defend against it and couldn’t just wave it away.

The God-Rending Death Blade was strong enough that the woman immediately began focusing on the fight. If she was careless, she could lose.

Blades of grasses appeared all around her, sprouting from thin air as they clumped in front of her, stopping the sword slash. They converged, soon taking on a spear-like shape that flew toward Alex.

Alex tried to dodge, but the attack turned midway to come after him. He couldn’t dodge it at all.

He pulled the shield on the side and at the same time used the Endless Severing Sword.

The sound his shield made when a spear made of grass struck it made Alex frown hard. That attack was stronger than anything he could defend just yet. The woman’s attacks were in the Immortal Origin 4th realm, and that was something Alex could only touch with his attacks at the moment. That too only with his Endless Severing Sword and his True Immolation Strike. The rest of the attacks were too weak to do anything to the woman.

The woman didn’t notice Alex’s attack at first, with it being imperceptibly thin and all. However, she did notice the presence of something coming her way and quickly acted to stop it.

When the attack struck and nearly destroyed her defensive technique, her eyes went wide with shock. She had thought Alex was strong from their clash, but… this was beyond what she expected.

‘What nonsense is this?’ she wondered. ‘How can he have a Battle Power of 10?’

That was simply preposterous. She believed, the same as everyone who had fought Alex, that he was hiding his cultivation base.

Even then, she couldn’t help but be amazed. He was rivaling her strength, so in the best-case scenario, his cultivation base was the same as her, and thus just as talented.

In the worst-case scenario, he was far more talented than her and that worried her.

Alex found it hard to focus on the woman with such a huge amount of teleportation aura that began erupting from the clash between the many people. A lot of the cultivators were being sent away from the secret realm, and at any moment, one side would emerge victorious.

What was Alex supposed to do here? Was his job still to keep the woman at bay, to distract her?

Or…

“Brother Dawnblade,” a voice called, and Alex looked toward it. It was Primrose.

“We need to run away,” she said.

Alex thought of running away and found that the oath didn’t stop him from doing so. He had given all he could at the moment for the group, and it didn’t work.

He noticed a few of the other people running away as well and knew the battle was lost. Many of them were leaving.

He had to leave as well.

“You’re not going anywhere,” the woman said, Dao of Wood and Wind surrounding her as a beautiful flower sprouted behind her, mostly illusory.

Alex feared that it was similar to what the sect master had used against him back in the Poison Fighting sect, but quickly realized that this flower was real. As real as it could be when made of Qi.

The flower was one that Alex recognized as a type of marigold flower, except the petals were numbered in the thousands. They fell off the flower, all at once, and like a swarm of bees, came for Alex.
