Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

The Emperor’s eyes changed the moment he heard Alex’s words. His face squeezed into a frown as he stared at Alex.

Alex felt a hint of fear inside of him when he saw that. What he said was most definitely not the right thing to say, but it was the best thing he could say in this situation.

“Brother Alex…” Long Huan slowly said. “What are you doing?”

‘Go open the Voidgate while he’s distracted,’ Alex sent a spiritual message directly to the man.

Only then did Long Huan realize why Alex was becoming brass all of a sudden. He was trying to distract his Father.

Was it going to work?

A puppet flew into the cave with Whisker on top of it and landed next to them. Whisker pointed toward the Voidgate without saying anything and turned around to protect the Voidgate in case any attack fell on them.

The 2nd prince dropped Hannah on her feet and walked over to Zhan Luoyang before handing her the talisman. “If it looks like things will go badly, use this and take away my wife from here. Protect her.”

He moved away without waiting for an answer.

Alex stared back at the Dragon Emperor, not letting his attention away from him. He needed this bit of time to save his sister and let them go away safely.

“Who told you that the Azure Dragon is dead?” the Dragon Emperor asked. “That is a lie.”

“Can you make an oath to prove that he is alive?” Alex asked the man in return, causing him to frown even further. 𝓇𝘦𝑎.𝒸ℴ𝓂

“You are going too far, King Alex. Do not dig your own grave,” the Dragon Emperor said as if advising a child from doing some misdeed.

Alex knew inside that he shouldn’t be doing this at all. Enraging the Dragon Emperor would only get him his ire. But it was the only way for the rest to leave.

‘Leave already,’ he told his elders with his spiritual sense, but they could sense the danger of the situation. They weren’t going to back down now.

The Dragon Emperor held his spear tight and was about to say something when his eyes moved away, looking toward the cave. Alex frowned as he sensed the emergence of Space and Time aura from the cave. The Voidgate was open.

“You’re not getting away from me, son,” the Dragon Emperor said. Just as he was prepared to move, he felt a burning sensation in his mind as Alex struck him with Heaven’s Impact.

The Dragon Emperor’s eyes widened slightly, feeling the power of Alex’s spiritual attack. It was quite strong, but not strong enough to knock him out at all.

‘Dammit!’ Alex thought. ‘Bastard is not even using any artifacts.’ Seeing his attack be barely anything more than an annoyance to the man was not fun to see. He could also tell the man planned to deal with the Voidgate first.

“You killed the Azure Dragon, didn’t you?” Alex asked. “You and your wife, you murdered him. I am still not sure why.”

The Dragon Emperor froze at those words and looked back down at Alex. He said no words, but his face was all that Alex needed.

He was right. He was actually right.

Alex had assumed that this was the case for a while now, but there had been times when the other possibility had been equally as possible. The possibility was that the Azure Dragon had been working with the Dragon Emperor and had somehow died in an accident.

Now, it was clear there was no accident. The Dragon Emperor had all but admitted to being responsible for the murder of the Azure Dragon. The only question that remained now was how Pearl and his mother fit into all of this. Did they just happen to be there? But then why was the Ebony sword stuck in Pearl’s mother?

‘Hurry up! The gate will close without my sword. I can’t go in without you all,’ Long Huan spoke into everyone’s mind.

The Dragon Emperor took a long and deep breath and released it in a sigh. A sigh filled with dejection frustration and anger.

“I sometimes wonder if we have any choice of our own or not,” the man said. Wind buffeted around him as his power surged, causing everyone around him to panic. “I thought you would be different at least, one that is not controlled by fate. And yet, here you are, trying to bring my downfall.”

The spear pointed down directly toward Alex. “You should have never called yourself a King.” And he released a massive bolt of lightning in the shape of a dragon, one that was clearly filled with Immortal Qi.

Alex was ready to protect himself, but Yao Ning moved before him.

A golden sphere appeared around the woman, formed entirely by Immortal Qi, with 16 different golden tentacles coming out of it which all attacked together.

The crash of the two attacks sent Alex falling backward as the world lost all sound and color again. He closed his eyes to the blinding light and yet his senses told him all he needed to.

Space collapsed at the point of impact and reformed just as quickly. The aura created from the attack overpowered every other aura that Alex had been sensing.

Just as Alex was trying to figure out what was happening, Liang Shufen appeared before him and pulled out a flask from inside her storage bag, releasing the water inside of it. The water immediately coalesced in front of them into a shield that blocked another large lightning bolt that fell on them.

Another wave of energy released from the crash of an Immortal attack on an Immortal shield.

“Your Majesty!” Liang Shufen shouted over the sound. “Get to the portal. You need to leave. We will follow.”

Alex was going to refuse, but he nodded. He couldn’t be stubborn here. He quickly got up and rushed toward the cave, feeling the push of another shockwave between the crash of two Immortal attacks.

Alex panicked on behalf of his two elders. How many Immortal attacks could they defend? He needed to get over to his sister and take her—

Alex froze mid step when he arrived next to the Voidgate and realized there was nobody there at all. The Voidgate was closed, and if anyone had been here, they had likely jumped into it.

The only thing that remained there was a talisman that seemed to have dropped while they ran away.

Alex quickly grabbed onto the sides of the Voidgate and opened it wide, but he couldn’t enter just yet. He turned around and tried to peer at the situation outside with his senses.

The Voidgate closed behind him with only a head-sized space open in the end. “Shit!” Alex thought as he came to realize that he needed to keep the space open if the others were to enter with him.

Which meant that he couldn’t leave unless both the elders were with him. Frustration built up inside of him and he had to choose exactly what to do.

“I have to bring them here,” Alex thought. He would have to grab them and teleport them here. That was the only way the three of them could possibly get out of the current predicament they had fallen into.
