Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy - Chapter 2250

Chapter 2250 A Single Attack

The dark-skinned man swung his sword, releasing a very strong attack that arrived in front of Pearl before he could prepare for it. Pearl teleported again, disappearing from where he stood, arriving some distance away with a haggard look. He was so close to getting hit that time that it wasn't even funny. Fighting something an entire major realm above you was not an easy feat for Pearl even after all the courage he had mustered.

'I will be seriously injured if I am hit by that,' Pearl thought. He was certain he would even die if the attack meant for it.

'There is no fighting here,' Pearl thought. 'I can teleport all around, but victory won't come from it. I must find it.'

Pearl realized that there was no exchange of attacks going to happen here. It was not a fight where he could chip down his enemy. He had to defeat him with one single attack.

'I need to figure out more about him first,' Pearl thought. The man had used nothing but sword attacks until now. He hadn't used any techniques or Daos.

Pearl needed to know what he had.

Pearl teleported to a different location, his aura concealed completely so that the man couldn't locate him immediately. The man turned to find him, locating him partially before Pearl poured his Qi into his spear held high and he slammed it downward.

Five Heavenly Forms of Spear - Third Form: Heavenly Spear Volley

The spear glowed brilliantly at that very moment, the energy within it flying into the sky, high above where it split into multiple spear-shaped energy and rained down into the ground in a volley.

Pearl teleported even before the attack rained down, concealing himself in another location where the man couldn't find him. The attacks rained down a second later like a destructive shower. Thousands of weak spear attacks rained in every location, destroying the flatland completely. Even Alex and the others had to move out of the way so that the attacks didn't land on them. It was just that much of a widespread attack.

Pearl watched the man carefully, sneaking in a few attacks from where he could before teleporting once again. He did this multiple times until the man was forced to reveal one of his defensive techniques.

The man's body glowed brightly, turning a shade darker as he employed a body-hardening technique now that was different from the Jade Skin technique. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Pearl's hand trembled. He had known about this possibility. The possibility that the man had treasures hidden inside of his soul space that he was going to use. But, he hadn't expected him to have a chance to pull it out in time.

He was certain that he would have caught him off-guard.

'Dammit!' Pearl thought as his strongest attack was defended against so easily.

"Now then," the man said, his sword taking on a color other than white for the first time. "Let us end this quickly."

The man swung his sword and the attack turned into a large illusory elephant that came trampling toward Pearl. Pearl teleported, dodging the attack, but the man simply controlled the elephant, turning it around. As it ran, the elephant picked up speed. So even as Pearl teleported around a few more times, it caught up to it very quickly.

"Hahah!" the fox laughed. "It's over!"

Alex watched, frowning. Was it really over? Had he expected too much from Pearl? He should have been the one in this fight. Not Pearl. If it was him, he could have— ROAR!!

A tiger's roar shook the land, carrying with it a strong spiritual attack that spread everywhere, including the audience.

Alex felt his mind waver for a second before gathering itself back. The others around him were much worse in that it took them a few more seconds. However, before they could do that, they were immediately met with a large shockwave that carried with it the sound of an explosion.

The shockwave this time was even stronger from the large time, pushing back all of whom were still standing. Alex had to use his defensive technique quickly to remain standing.

He looked through the shockwave, through the explosion. He hadn't seen what had been the cause of the explosion as his spiritual sense was rocked at that very moment, but he could now see its aftermath.

A large crater opened in the ground and within it was the dark-skinned man, missing several parts of his body. He was alive but was clearly incapacitated.

Far to the side, Pearl stood tall, breathing deeply. Victorious.
