Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 532 - Qi Sense



Chapter 532 - Qi Sense

Alex wanted to fly away, as he was still invisible and concealed, and if he got far away, he could escape from her.

However, he was afraid that she would once again start to attack the houses when he tried to run away.

Just as he was thinking that he felt something pass around him and wrap him up.

"I finally found you, you bastard," she shouted.

Alex's heart skipped a beat when he realized what had just happened. He immediately turned around to run away, but the invisible force wrapping around him solidified into something stronger and stopped him from doing anything.

He was trapped.

Black Venom turned towards him with a face full of hatred. Her eyes couldn't hold still as they drifted slightly on his position as there was nothing in the air for her eyes to lock onto, but with her Qi sense, she could tell that Alex was there.

Qi Sense.

That was something Alex had never bothered learning about when he reached the True realm. To normal cultivators, learning Qi sense was something that was pretty mandatory to do if they wanted to get better at fighting or producing stuff.

But, for someone like Alex who had spiritual sense, Qi sense was pretty much useless. After all, Qi sense was nothing but a worse mimicry of Spiritual sense.

True realm cultivators were more sensitive to changes in their Qi compared to self-tempering cultivators. So, when they sent out their Qi in a massive volume, they could feel the physical objects based on the QI that they displaced.

It helped them in situations when vision wasn't really helpful. That was Qi sense.

Qi sense was only useful in situations when the thing you wanted to locate or keep track of was a small distance away from you. For example, Alchemists used Qi sense to keep track of the ingredients in the cauldron, which was much easier to do than normal Qi manipulation.

Since Alex had been using ranged attacks for the majority of the fight, Black Venom couldn't locate him at all. However, now that he was right in front of her Qi sense finally came in handy.

Alex struggled to move in mid-air, trying to fly off, but he could feel the Qi wrapped around his torso that stopped him from doing that.

Fortunately, despite the difference in cultivation, Black Venom couldn't suppress Alex as she did a long time ago. Unlike last time, Alex could move his hands and feet, however, that didn't help him a lot right now.

Black Venom held her sickle in reverse as it started glowing in yellow light. Alex had realized by now from the lack of other colors that Black Venom probably had a Superior Metal Spirit root.

"Die!" she swung the blade as fast as she could and struck at Alex.

Alex wasted no time and used every single skill he knew that could help him right now. A barrier of multicolored lights appeared in front of him to defend him. His skin shined with slight brown light and was full of marble patterns on him, making him look like jade.

At the same time, Golden lights appeared on his hands as well as his sword which he struck at the sickle as hard as he could.

At the same time, he made full use of his Supreme Metal spirit roots to push away the energy in her sickle as much as he could.

He knew that he couldn't control metal energy that belonged to someone else, but he was desperate and needed to try it in this situation.

A slight tinge of happiness arose in his heart when he realized that he could in fact push some of the stray metal energy around her sickle to fight back with the other energy.

It may be stopped some 5 percent of the total damage, but that too was a big enough number to make some difference right now.

At the same time, his Heaven's Five barriers too blocked some of the energy coming towards him.

Just then his sword struck her sickle with full force, and he expected the sword to stop some of the damage too, however, he misunderstood just how much force she was carrying.

The sword rebounded when it hit the sickle and flew back towards him. It came back to hit him with additional force, destroying the armor he wore inside. it then went on and destroyed his right collar bone as well as a few ribs.

Neither his Jade Skin technique nor his exceptionally strong skin was able to stop him from taking the damage from his own sword. The rest of the force behind his own attack at him made him fly backward towards the ground.

At the last moment, just before he was thrown back too far away, the sickle struck him. He was far enough back that his body was safe from the sickle, but his elbows that were extended from him hitting himself in the chest were not.

The sickle hit his left arm, and in a single swing, sliced it in half. Alex struck the ground with a very loud thud and sent rocks flying everywhere.

He coughed up blood as it started leaking from his mouth, his chest and now the cut-off left arm. Alex's vision darkened as he could barely see anything from all the pain. He was also starting to feel lightheaded from blood loss.

'I need to… I need to do something,' he thought with what little consciousness he had left.

He wheezed loudly trying to take a breath, but he couldn't. It turned out that his lungs had also been pierced with his own sword and was now starting to get filled with his own blood.

It was also starting to fill up his other lung. He needed to do something quickly, or he would die for certain.

He sent out his spiritual sense into his robes to locate his storage bags so he could find a healing pill from there.

Just as he did, his vision returned slightly, just enough for him to notice Black Venom drifting towards him.

"So you are still alive huh?" she asked. "However, it won't be for long."

She slashed down with her sickle, bothering to use no skill at all, and struck at Alex.

Alex looked at the falling sickle with terror in his eyes. This was it. He was going to die.

He closed his eyes, bracing for the pain.

CLANG

Alex felt something sharp cut his cheeks and some other things rain down on him as well. However, none of them felt like it was an attack belonging to that of a True Lord expert.

He opened his eyes and saw a familiar face standing in front of him. The person had serious eyes with slight hints of anger in them. Alex tilted his head to the right to see Black Venom somewhere a bit far away, looking at the new figure in shock.

"Oh no! Junior brother," a voice came from someone close by. Luo Mei ran up to him and looked down to see him in such a horrible situation.

She looked down to see his bloody wounds and missing limb and was immediately horrified.

Alex however felt relief at her sight and the other person in front of him. Finally, at least one of the person he called for had arrived.

He took the opportunity to pull out a pill from his storage bag and ate it. It was difficult swallowing when all his body wanted to do was breathe, but Alex controlled himself for long enough to swallow it.

Immediately the energy from the pill started spreading from his stomach and reached to the different locations of his body. His lung which was punctured was healed. His bones which were shattered, rejoined.

Even the cuts on his cheeks and other various scratches all over his body were healed. However, his left arm that was sliced off wasn't healed at all.

The pill he had just eaten could heal pretty much anything in his body, but limbs that were torn off were beyond it. It was beyond any of the recipes to true pills he knew.

In fact, at the moment, the pill he knew that could help him was a Saint-ranked pill, and that was impossible for him to obtain.

"Shit!" he thought. Once the pain was gone, and the need to breathe started reaching the peak, he stood up and forced his lungs to push out all the blood that was inside of it.

Black Venom looked cautiously at the new arrivals. From what she could tell, the two that had just arrived had a cultivation base of the Mind Tempering realm. However, she couldn't tell if that was correct or not.

After all, the young man that had attacked her had strength far beyond that of what a Mind Tempering realm should have.

In fact, the strength he put out could rival that of True Disciple master. She didn't know if he was hiding his cultivation base or what, so she decided to stay back for now.

She watched Alex stand up and was shocked. 'How did he heal so fast?' she wondered. She didn't see anyone of them offering him a pill, so she was very confused.

Alex, which his arm still dripping blood, looked at the man next to him and bowed a little. "Thank you for saving me, brother Yuhan. If you hadn't arrived on time, I would've died for sure," he said.

"If I had known something like this was happening, I would've come sooner, brother Ning," Du Yuhan answered while maintaining his serious face.

"However, I don't know if my coming here will be of much help to you.. After all, I don't think I have the strength to fight against a True Lord expert."
