Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy
chapter-1817

Yan Yating's sword slash took the form of a giant four-legged beast that flew across the air toward the Emperor.

The Emperor's spear attack was one that always took the shape of a dragon.

The two attacks clashed in the sky and the world seemed to lose its color upon impact. Reality warped where the two attacks touched each other and ripples were sent through space that broke and reformed immediately.

"How long do you wish to keep this up?" the Dragon Emperor asked. "You cannot think that you can beat me by fighting straight, can you?"

The Dragon Emperor sent out another attack, throwing tendrils of lightning in all directions, attacking not just Yan Yating but also every other location that the attack could land on.

Most of those who were attacked were people who were too weak to protect themselves and had to hide behind others.

The Dragon Emperor could see that his army had lost the

battle, so all that remained was for him to win the war. So, he

started attacking more recklessly, without a need to worry

about who the stray shot landed on.

Yan Yating did his best to stop all the attacks, but the attack

was too vast for him to get to all of them and stop them. He

had to rely on the people behind him to protect themselves.

The only good thing that came through this was the fact that

the Dragon Emperor was wasting more Immortal Qi than he

needed to.

Yan Yating, as a Saint Transformation 8th realm cultivator, had

maybe 35% of his Qi as Immortal Qi. The Emperor, just one

realm higher, would have nearly 50% of his Qi be Immortal Qi.

That discrepancy was something that he had to fight through.

Yan Yating had been notified by the others that the Emperor

had regained all of his Immortal Qi back, so he had to be

careful.

'Let him use his Qi without any thought,' Yan Yating thought.

'The more he uses, the better my chance of besting him.'

The Dragon Emperor was a being that had haunted him for

the past 70 years, so he was more than ready to get it all over

with.

He returned once again to attack the Dragon Emperor and

force him to use more of his Qi.

Pearl flickered and appeared in four places at once, each one

of him dashing toward the woman that had charged in wildly

to attack him.

She had a crazy look on her face and a wild grin, and she kept

saying that she wanted to kill him to get on the Emperor's

good side.

Thankfully, she overestimated her strength in front of him as

he too had a battle prowess far beyond what the others saw of

him.

The woman created a vortex of fire in front of her, with the

tail end of it facing one of the four Pearls.

She stared at each of the four Pearls at once, attacking the

one 2nd from the left.

The vortex turned sharper and launched a fiery arrow toward

that one Pearl.

Pearl's body glowed bright golden just as the attack landed on

him, and stopped the attack.

The woman smiled. "Haha!" she shouted. "You can't hide from

me."

A ball of fire appeared in her hands and she launched it toward

Pearl. The fire took on the shape of a diving hawk and

slammed against the same Pearl she attacked earlier.

The Pearl that was attacked suddenly turned illusory,

disappearing into motes of golden light that spread toward

the other three Pearls that still remained on the field, who

kept charging at her.

One of the Pearl arrived right in front of her and swung his

arm at her. His paw glowed bright golden as well as he used

the Golden Tiger Claw technique etched into his bloodline

The air seemed to hold behind a streak of glowing light where

the claw passed and the woman quickly used a defensive

talisman to protect herself at the last moment.

A burst of energy appeared from the talisman, fighting back

the incoming paw strike. And in that burst of energy, Pearl

disappeared once again.

He turned into motes of golden light that flickered back into

the two other Pearls who had arrived in front of the women as

well and they both attacked.

The woman had already fought back and she found it difficult

to bring herself to do so at just this moment. Still, she

concentrated raw Qi in her hands and pushed it toward the

Pearl on the left.

The Pearl on the right attacked her and instantly swiped his

claw through her face, ripping away a chunk of her face.

The woman screamed and tried to fly back, but golden lines

appeared from Pearl, like wires that caught the woman in it,

stopping her from moving any further.

His claw glowed once again and he swung it at the woman's

head once more.

This time, the woman's face caved in, crushing her skull

entirely. Her body died at that instant.

The other Pearl had already turned into motes of life, entering

the real Pearl, becoming once.

The woman's body slumped under Pearl's binding, and a small

blue illusory soul flew out from her body.

Pearl roared at the soul and it crumbled into motes of light,

dying just there.

"Good fighting, young lord," someone spoke from behind

Pearl.

Pearl turned around and saw the leader of the Lizard colony

moving toward him. He then looked around the battlefield and

saw many of the other beasts smiling toward him.

They had been waiting patiently for him to be done with his

battle.

"You are only at Saint Core 7th realm, and you can kill people

in the Saint Soul realm. You truly are the son of his Majesty,"

the Lizard said.

"Why have you all stopped fighting?" Pearl asked.

The blue Eagle moved toward Pearl. "Young lord, the battle is

all but done," she said, pointing toward the few fights that

happened here and there.

"We have won, young lord," the Lizard said.

Pearl felt the intense aura of battle coming from a distance far

away. He looked at the fight between the Dragon Emperor

and Yan Yating.

"No," he said. "It's not over."

He pointed toward the Dragon Emperor. "As long as he is alive,

the battle is not over."

The beasts looked toward the Dragon Emperor too and

grimaced. "We're afraid we are not that useful in that regard,"

the Deer answered. "We're not strong enough to contend

against him."

"No," Pearl said. "But you will make for a fine annoyance."

Pearl raised his voice and spoke to every beast, both from the

Beast Paradise and the ones that were under his great

Grandfather.

"Everyone in the Saint Transformation realm, listen up!" he

roared a command. "If you have any Immortal Qi in you, do

not keep it. Attack it at that man. Distract him with all the

power you can muster."

The beasts looked toward the Dragon Emperor, with great

consideration in their face.

"Attack him all at once, so we may kill him," Pearl shouted.

"This is my command as the ruler of the Eastern Continent.

Go!"
