Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

A barrier shattered the moment it popped up. The force of a Saint Qi filled whip was too strong for a True ranked escape talisman’s barrier to stop.

However, the power of the whip did lower to the point that he wasn’t able to hurt Song Shing when it did land on his head.

Song Shing reeled back in pain as the silver light covered him to teleport him away.

He hoped he could survive, but Alex had no such plans. The whip flew back into the silver light and shattered Song Shing’s head in a burst of fire.

Alex struck the person behind the twisted space, but he couldn’t touch the space itself from where he was.

So, when the power fully enveloped Song Shing, he was teleported away; Dead.

When the final enemy in front of him was gone, Alex finally loosened his body and took a deep breath in relief.

His spiritual energy was a third of what it could be, his body felt fatigued, and his 90% Saint Qi was now down to around 40%.

Whatever his body was slowly recovering was just True Qi for now.

The effects the pills had on his body would vanish at any moment, and even more pain and lethargy would follow through soon.

Alex stood up and decided to go towards the North mountain soon. If he could just hide there for a while, and leave when some time had passed, he should be safe.

Then, once he secretly went to the Icy Hell and got the inheritance, he could bring the Beast realm and the Emperor to punish these guys.

Alex looked at the 8 dead bodies around him, 9 if one counted the various chunks of Fu Tao that was everywhere.

‘The others teleported away, huh?’ he thought as he walked over to He Liwei and grabbed his mask.

He turned the mask off and put it into his storage ring.

The young man beneath the mask had a blank look on his face as he stared out into the world, with not a single thought in his mind.

He might as well have been in a coma.

Alex didn’t bother killing him as he was essentially dead. Instead, he took the young man’s storage bags and kept them for himself.

Next, he walked over to the other rich body in the pile of bodies.

The body belonged to Jin Tengfei.

Alex picked up the 21 scattered swords and placed them in his storage bags. Then, he walked over to the body.

Just as Alex reached there, he noticed something through the spiritual sense he had been spreading for his own defense.

Someone had entered it, and that someone was fast.

The old man Fu has already noticed Alex and was making his way toward him. As he flew, he was distracted by the corpses around Alex.

When he noticed one particular one with crimson robes, giving off the aura of a dead Saint realm cultivator whose Qi was dissipating into the air, the old man’s eyes went wide.

Then they narrowed as inconcealable hared appeared on them.

“You killed my grandson?” he shouted as he landed right next to Alex and kicked him.

Alex did nothing but stay there as the kick landed on him. Then, he drifted into the air as a bunch of motes of light.

The old man’s hatred decreased just the tiniest bit to be replaced by surprise.

Alex was already gone.

Another dead body plopped outside the monolith.

The jaguar continued attacking the barrier, so the 14 Saints that were looking after the jaguar couldn’t take their eyes off of the formation and had to focus on providing it with stable energy.

The jaguar could see the Saint foundation realm cultivator struggling to provide enough Qi to the node he was responsible for.

He was cultivating while he poured his Qi, but he was spending more than he was gathering. At some point, he would have nothing to spend.

The jaguar knew the only way to reach that point would be to keep on attacking.

The Saints focused on the formation, but a scream took away some of their attention.

The formation shuddered for a split second before coming back up.

“What?” one of the saints shouted.

“Matriarch! The young master… he… he…” one of the saints that were waiting around spoke. The robe he wore belonged to the Song family, and the person he called was the Song family Matriarch.

So, when she spread her senses outside, she saw that the newly arrived corpse was one of her grandson’s, she nearly lost herself in shock.

Sadness crept on in her hand and she unconsciously let go of her node.

The jaguar tried to break when the node was left open, but someone else saw the situation and jumped in time to pour their Qi into the node to keep it going.

The jaguar clicked its tongue in annoyance, but there was nothing else it could do but continue attacking.

The Song Saint stood up slowly with her eyes tearing up at the death of her grandson. She truly loved him.

Just how could he have died?

Without any thoughts about her action, she walked over to the monument and activated it at once.

“Go quickly before she kills the kid in rage,” a few saints said at once, and so they too entered the monument leaving none but the 14 saints to keep the formation going outside.

The jaguar looked at the situation, analyzed it for a second, and then turned towards the single cultivator that was already struggling from the very start.

It was time to up the rate of its attacks.

Alex ran through the forest.

After using the Earth Devour technique, he appeared at the edge of the secret realm where the chromatic haze stopped him from seeing anything that was outside.

Unlike the beast realm, this one was too denser to let him see through.

He had climbed onto a tree and analyzed where he had appeared. He had seen the 2nd mountain nearby and realized where he was.

Then, knowing that the only safe place around here was the third mountain, he had run for it.

Alex was already getting closer and closer to the third mountain and it looked like he could escape the old man that had come.

He was completely hidden in both aura and image, so no True realm cultivators could see him at all.

He ran up to the third mountain where the many people were gathered to get their turn to go in and cultivate for a month in a single day.

Aside from the Flora and Fauna mountain, this was the mountain that people really came into the Demon realm for.

Alex thought of entering the 1-month cultivation but shook away the thought. There was nothing he could gain against Saint Core cultivators that could kill him with a single breath by hiding for a single day.

So, he started running. However, before he made it very far, he felt a spiritual sense land on him from not far away.

Alex felt the horrifying dread grow in his heart and knew there was really only one way he could survive now.

So, he ran.
