Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 2061  Ninerise

Alex held Midnight in his right hand and the shield with his left hand. Then, he jumped into the fight.

Ren Muwen quickly formed a marigold flower behind her, the petals of which plucked themselves off the flower and came down toward Alex from all directions in front of him.

Beforehand, he had nothing that he could use to deal with this. Now that he was a step stronger than before, he could use everything.

A spiral shield appeared before him, formed from his All Swirling Elemental Defense technique. The blades that were the petals of the flower struck the shield and turned into harmless motes of light.

Countless spots of white appeared around Alex at that moment as he quickly used his Dao of Yin-filled Infinite Heavenly Ice Spear Art. The white spots quickly turned into icicles which quickly flew toward the woman.

The woman, already surprised that Alex had stopped her attack, decided to be not careless at all and quickly formed her shield with blades of grass that came together to stop the attack.

At the same time, she began throwing small compressed shots of air that shot at Alex from the front.

Alex didn't even bother dodging it and simply used his Jade Skin technique to take the hits as he attacked back. Soon, they fell into a rhythm where they exchanged attacks against each other.

Primrose was surprised just how strong she was with this new technique she followed. She had heard Alex's explanation about it being an array of cultivators that improved their cultivation base, but seeing that it allowed her to be as strong as Ironsign before her.

She had her hexagonal shield before her to protect herself from his attacks, but so did he. And as long as she could break through his shield before he went through her, she would win.

Ironsign had realized that he was most definitely in trouble. All of the attacks his shield had to bear were slowly making it weaker. He was fighting back as well, but Primrose's shield was the same as his and would require the same amount of damage to render it useless.

Only, he was attacking Primrose's shield, but two people were attacking his.

Miao Wupeng was right beside Primrose, attacking whenever he had the chance, forcing Ironsign to continuously be on the defensive, not able to fight back much at all.

Primrose checked on her surroundings, always so vigilant to make sure they weren't attacked while their guard was down. The people around her were making sure that they weren't disturbed either.

They had the upper hand in the fight, for now, but new people were beginning to arrive. When enough people came, it was certain that they would most certainly lose. So, they had to at least take care of the rest of them before this.

"Wupeng!" Primrose called for the man just as he swung his saber, releasing a strong attack.

"What?" Miao Wupeng asked, turning around to look at her.

Primrose jumped in front of him to protect him from the incoming attack and said, "Go help the others. If they lose, we lose."

Miao Wupeng paused and turned to look at the situation. He came to the same conclusion she had and understood her intent.

"Can you handle it here then?" he asked her.

Primrose nodded.

"Very well," the man said. "I'll leave you to it then."

Miao Wupeng jumped into a fight with someone else and quickly began defeating them. As he was the strongest individual there, there weren't many that could stop him at all.

Ironsign sighed in relief when he saw the man leave. Without him, the battle was much more fair and in his favor. "You sure you don't want your friends to help you fight, young miss?" he asked.

"I fight my own battle." Primrose brought out her weapon, a pink sword, and began fighting.

Ninerise looked at the woman before him with a sly smile on his face. He was fighting Ye Wenjie and knew that as he was right now, he was much stronger than her.

Ye Wenjie's face grimaced the entire time as she couldn't understand what was happening. Each time she clashed with the young man, she came out as the loser. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The young man was supposed to have a cultivation base 2 realms lower than her, and he was fighting on par with her?

"I'm not a bully," Ninerise said. "If you want to, I can consider letting you go so long as you teleport away."

"Like hell you will get me to do anything, brat!" Ye Wenjie said in an angry tone, quickly pulling her sword back to attack once again.

She swung her sword, letting out a deep golden slash that left a trail of golden light behind it.

Ninerise calmly moved to the side and pulled out a large metal book from his Soul Space. The many pages of the book flipped on its own, landing on a certain page with various inscriptions on it. Placing his hand on the book, he poured his Qi into it and the scripts upon it activated, releasing a massive snake made entirely of fire.

The snake went around the sword slash and came directly for Ye Wenjie. Ye Wenjie blocked the attack but couldn't help but grunt in anger as the same thing happened one more time.

Each time she tried to attack, he always dodged and countered it. How could he do such a thing? It made no sense for him to do it so calmly. She screamed in anger and let out another slash.

Ninerise looked at Ye Wenjie and smiled. Before Ye Wenjie even moved, he could already see an illusory figure before her moving and slashing toward him.

A second after that, Ye Wenjie did what her silhouette had done a second ago and slashed. By this time, Ninerise had already moved away from where the slash was going to land.

The pages on the book flipped once again and landed on a different one. Ninerise placed his palm on the page and activated it.

This time, a wonderful sonorous sound came from the book, like a stunning lullaby directed only at Ye Wenjie.

Ye Wenjie at first didn't realize what was happening, but quickly noticed the slight change in her spiritual presence as something was attacking her.

She pulled out a pill without hesitation and ate it to improve her mental fortitude.

Ninerise smiled and flipped the book to another page to let out another attack.

It had been over 50 years since he left his clan to roam the Blue Silk continent with none but a single servant of his family to experience the outside world.

For 50 years, he had entered tombs and tried to enter sects to have more fun, but had never been successful at it. He had happened upon this secret realm on a random tour of the city and had decided to enter on a whim.

He was so very happy that he did so.

'I have 20 years before grandma comes to this continent for the Great Seer Convergence and takes me back,' he thought. 'I want to enjoy it all so much more before then.'
