Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

?Liz and Graham were saved at the last moment by defensive techniques they had received from both Bai Jingshen and Scarlet.

The appearance of the images of two Immortal figures sent waves of awe-inspiring sensations throughout the crowd. The behemoth of the face of the White Tiger and the fabulous wings of the Immortal Phoenix made the people temporarily forget that they had just seen another such image right before even.

The Dragon Emperor saw the two images, and completely ignored the wings of the Phoenix and instead looked at the White Tiger’s face.

Both fear and anger roiled his face as the last thing he wanted to see in this war was the face of the one who would fulfill the prophecy.

Even before anyone had come back from their shock, the Dragon Emperor poured more Immortal Qi into the Noble Dragon Spear and sent out another bolt of lightning toward Liz.

As an Immortal, there was only so much help one could provide in the lower realms before the Heavens of the lower realm decided that you were meddling in the business of those that did not concern you.

As such, neither Bai Jingshen nor Scarlet was capable of providing too much help even just defensively. Bai Jingshen had been able to provide 3 such defensive measures, and Scarlet had been able to provide just 2.

As for who those 5 were going to be, it was unanimously chosen to be people who simply could not die. As Alex’s father and aunt, neither Graham nor Liz could die.

Only, Liz felt that she was going to die now as the Emperor sent out his lightning attack once again.

Graham turned around, using the opportunity to fly toward his sister, but there was no speed he could produce that could get him there in time.

As he started turning, the man he fought quickly strengthened his arms and readied his ax once again to bring it down on Graham.

Liz slowed down time as much as she could to give herself time to escape, regardless of the fact that she knew that was impossible. As she did, she saw something flash before her in a silvery light.

She looked beyond the bubble of her slowed time and saw a flat rectangular object appear before her. A mirror, which stood before the oncoming lightning strike.

And it was already activated.

The lightning bolt struck the mirror and was instantly reflected as it flew crashing back toward the Dragon Emperor.

At the same time, the man who was ready to kill Graham felt some sort of motion to his right that his senses could not see.

As he turned his head to look, a sword appeared from invisibility and slashed. The man couldn’t even react in time as the nameless technique cut through his body, and the attack flew toward the Dragon Emperor in the distance.

The Dragon Emperor quickly pulled out the Golden Dragon Shield and activated it using his Immortal Qi to create a thick barrier to stop his own attack that was reflected.

He bore the full force of the attack with his shield and also felt something crash onto the barrier from the right that he could not see.

It had been strong, not as strong as the lightning bolt that was reflected, but enough to give him some concern that he would have to check later on.

Once the attack was fully stopped, the Dragon Emperor put down his shield and quickly took an assessment of the situation.

The very first thing he noticed was his own lack of Immortal Qi. At the realm he was, half of all of his Qi was Immortal Qi. Once spent, he would only gain it back through a long stretch of cultivation.

Just standing around gave him nothing more than Saint Qi, which while strong, was not what he could rely on in this battle.

He would have to cultivate properly later on.

The second thing, and perhaps what was more important, that he noticed was that both Liz and Graham were gone from the battlefield, and the only one that was standing there was Alex.

The Dragon Emperor got ready to kill him while keeping in mind the shenanigans that Alex could still pull. He quickly looked around for Hao Ya and was starting to become certain that she was nowhere in the vicinity at all.

Alex seemed poised and ready to fight him as well.

“So you know you cannot kill me,” the Dragon Emperor said. “Is that why you decided to try and call the Immortal over? To help you with your war?”

Alex gave a small grin. “Do you believe I would have to call the Immortal to defeat you?” he asked.

The Dragon Emperor frowned slightly. Something was wrong with Alex that the Emperor could not tell. It was as though the person he was looking at currently did not exist.

‘Am I being played with again?’ the Dragon Emperor thought. He was almost sure that the Alex he was talking to did not exist. After all, where there should have been Alex in his spiritual sense was instead a massive void.

‘Where is he?’ the Dragon Emperor thought and looked around down below around the consoles of the formation. He wasn’t there either.

“What is it that you plan to do?” the Dragon Emperor asked. “I know you had the girl do something with the formation. I don’t know what, but she was trying something.”

“She was indeed doing something alright,” Alex said as he slowly floated down from the sky. “She was helping me fix the formation so that it was ready for use.”

The Dragon Emperor scoffed. “Even if she completed in fixing it or whatever, how do you plan on using it?” he asked. “The key to activating this formation is with me, and will forever be with me.”

As he finished speaking, he searched the surrounding area carefully with his senses to see if Alex was hiding elsewhere. However, no matter how much he checked, he couldn’t find any signs of anyone being present below him.

Alex landed on top of the formation and answered. “That is true,” Alex said. “You do have the key to activate it. But sadly for you, there is more than one way to activate a formation.”

The Dragon Emperor’s eyes narrowed a little.

Alex blazed with Yang Qi as he poured all he could into the stone platform below him. The ground buzzed softly.

“What… what are you doing?” the Dragon Emperor demanded. He was starting to realize that he had been talking to the real Alex the entire time.

“I would’ve been in trouble if there was a seal on the formation,” Alex said. “But a lack of a simple activation key cannot stop me.”

“No, stop!” the Dragon Emperor shouted and prepared to attack. Even as he did, he felt the space around him twist and turn as he realized that he was standing in the teleportation formation that was about to activate.

As quickly as he could, the Dragon Emperor flew out of the range of the teleportation formation and watched as the entire formation came alive.

Alex alone stood at the center as he stared up at the Dragon Emperor and gave a smirk as the lights swallowed him.

“See you in a bit.”
