Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy - Chapter 2164

Chapter 2164 Survive

All 5 of Pearl's clones attacked his opponent at once. They all teleported at once, arriving all around the man.

The man hadn't expected such a major difference all of a sudden and was caught off guard. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The man quickly began fighting back, surprised that all 5 of the Pearls had weight to their body. They were as real as they could be while still being fake. They all felt the same, their powers about the same on all fronts.

He had no issue dealing with the attacks from the clone, but should the real one attack him at the right moment, he would be in trouble. He managed to stab through one of the clones, but the body simply turned into glittering light, transferring into the remaining four. For some reason, all of their intensity increased at the same time.

Fire Dao blossomed around him, quickly turning into a strong destructive attack that destroyed two of the Pearl right then and there. Those Pearls turned into glittering light as well and quickly vanished into the two remaining ones.

The two remaining ones became more difficult to fight now.

The feeling the man got from the fight was that while weaker, the two Pearls he fought were real. He couldn't tell how that was possible, but it was.

He quickly overpowered one of the Pearl and stabbed his spear right through his head. The Pearl faded away, returning to the final Pearl that remained.

Pearl swung his spear at an angle, but the man blocked it in time before stabbing back in retaliation himself. Pearl teleported away.

Once again, there was distance between them. Only this time, Pearl didn't feel as much of a dilemma anymore. He had two choices. Either he had to fight up close and make it difficult for the man to dodge, or he had to fight from further away and give himself a chance to dodge.

The choices were between the two if anyone else was in Pearl's situation. But for Pearl, they were the same choices.

He remained further away, propping his spear parallel to the ground while preparing one of the other techniques Grimsight had taught him. Golden energy swirled all around him, quickly concentrating on the spear as it spun into a destructive force.

Then, Pearl stabbed forward.

As desperation grew, so did Pearl's desire to win. 'Don't mess it up, Pearl. Keep fighting,' he thought. 'You can win.'

He dodged one attack, barely parried another, and then teleported out once more.

'The one that wins is not the one who is stronger, but the one who stays standing until the end,' Pearl told himself. 'Just keep on fighting. Even if I get hit, I need to keep on going.'

He got sliced in the leg, nearly blowing it all right off. He was knocked back, rolling on the ground, leaving a trail of blood. It healed slowly.

'Stand back up. Fight.' That was all he could tell himself at that moment to keep going. He shrunk space to grab his spear that was further away from him and pulled it back before striking back.

He got back up, getting back into the fight. His father's words came back to him, a memory he had nearly forgotten from the time when he had been in the blood pool where he evolved. The memory of his father's voice, the thunderous sound that he still remembered.

'You must survive, Shouchuang. Survive and Live!'

Pearl got stabbed close to his upper right shoulder, but he barely managed to use the White Tiger's Dominating body in time to stop it from destroying his right arm completely.

He fell back down on the ground, lying in the blood that flowed out of him and pooled around him. That had been the most devastating strike he had taken all fight.

The man paused, wondering if the battle was over. But it was not over. Pearl could still keep going.

Pearl gritted his teeth and slowly got back up, his eyes nearly glowing with their golden color now and his spear glowing white with Spear Qi.

'I will survive,' he thought with great focus. 'I will live.'

The spear in his hand buzzed ever so slightly, and the Spear Qi surrounding his spear began sparking out.

Grimsight was the only one to notice this, and he couldn't help but smile upon noticing. 'He's finally learned Spear Aura.'
