Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 608 Hurt Meridians



Chapter 608 Hurt Meridians

19 bandits remained. Of them, 3 had a cultivation base higher than that of Alex's body cultivation.

True Lord 7th, True lord 4th, and True lord 2nd realm.

Alex stared at the man with True Lord 7th realm, a small with a big build, wearing an earthen colored robe.

Alex was certain that was the leader of the bandits, he had to be. Unless they were okay with someone else weaker than him being the leader, then this man was definitely it.

And he was staring back at Alex.

'I either need to get rid of the 16 others and fight the 3 with more freedom, or kill the 3 as soon as I can and fight the other with more freedom,' he thought.

Alex was sure. As long as the 3 of them weren't present, and no one had a hidden treasure that could deal damage equal to or above that of True Lord 1st realm, he was fine.

He couldn't take that risk at all. He had to think of every person having some sort of special attack that could deal with him.

"So it's the 16 that die first then," he said softly.

The leader spun his silver spear in the air as he sent a worm-shaped tempest flying towards him.

Alex had no way of fighting that. So, he instead burned another bright sun behind him, a fusion of fire and yang, mixed together to produce light enough to illuminate the world like a real sun.

Then, once the shadow was in the right place on the Leader's robes, he vanished.

Multiple sounds of clangs as well as buzzing sounds appeared in the blink of an eye.

Alex's hands blitzed through the air as he tried to rip out the throat and organs of everyone he came across.

He had targeted the leader, but that was just a test. The leader had indeed some sort of defensive treasure to protect himself.

So, using the lingering light, he teleported to the other weaker people and had attacked them. Most of them had defensive treasure which clanged with each attack, but they were way too weak to stop Alex's golden claw which was a mimic of the White Tiger's Golden claw.

At the same time, he sent out other attacks too. He sent palm of the sun, and Iron Fist punch towards the weaker opponents. They wouldn't die to these attacks, but certainly take so much damage that they wouldn't be able to recover in just a few minutes of time unless they also had equally good pills.

However, the thing that concerned him was the buzzing sounds. He had sent multiple Heaven's Impact towards the enemies, but only a few of them were dropping to the ground.

Most of the others had buzzing sounds coming from their artifacts that seemed to be made to stop mental attacks.

The artifacts weren't strong enough to stop them completely, but just enough so that they only felt slight mental pain, instead of straight-up fainting.

It would have been so much easier if they all fell to Heaven's Impact.

Alex's hand went through the glass and then through the man's chest, ripping out his heart back through the broken glasses.

Wisps of light flew into the air as the lantern artifact that was making him dizzy broke into a dozen pieces as it fell along with the man.

Alex felt horrible holding onto a person's heart, but he was getting used to it. He tossed the heart away and flew backward, breathing heavily.

'Dammit! Have my meridians not fully opened yet?' he thought. He was feeling general numbness all over his body. He couldn't tell if it was because his meridians were still to heal completely, or his body was just not back to its full potential due to the missing muscles.

Or maybe it was because he used too many spells in succession, killing 6 more men, injuring 3, and fainting 3 more.

With 12 of the 19 out of battle, only 7 remained. Alex huffed, but this wasn't the time.

He flew back like a serpent of blue flashed next to him with golden fangs. At the same time, a flaming bird flew towards him with its wings outstretched.

Alex enlarged his golden claws and crushed the firebird, turning it into motes of fire Qi, which he quickly controlled to send flying at the serpent of blue that was surrounding him.

The fire Qi and Water Qi destroyed themselves, while the metal Qi floated with no control.

Alex control the metal Qi to form into a sword of bright golden color and threw it back towards one of the men who attacked him.

Just then something black flashed next to him that Alex only caught using his Spiritual sense. If not for that, he would've completely missed it.

A spear attack flashed towards the right side of Alex, completely cutting off his escape. So, grabbed the black thing and tried to crush it.

Just as he crushed it, it burst out into a bunch of vines and roots that wrapped around him. At the same time, the woman with the 2nd True lord realm cultivation base drew an arrow, getting ready to attack.

"Shit!" Alex thought and tried to strain himself out of the entrapment. The vines came loose, but not fast enough.

A massive explosion hit Alex heat first as he was sent tumbling backward.

"Nice!" the girl said as she thought that she killed Alex.

Suddenly, the night turned into day once again and when it turned back to night, the girl's head was off of her neck.

Alex huffed, his right hand holding his sword once again as that was the only thing that could likely cut someone like her.

His forehead was bloody, but he would survive. The blood trickled down to his blade, and he almost hoped it would be refined.

However, he hadn't reached that part yet. He wasn't even able to send Qi into it, let alone be able to refine.

It would take some time.

Alex felt a bit of pain from the charred flesh on his chest, but it was nothing compared to what he felt every day cultivating with Pearl.

He gritted his teeth, which instead looked like a bloody smile as he got back to fighting.

It hurt. His face, his chest, even his right arm. But nothing hurt as much as his meridians.

He had not once, not twice, but three times forced so much Qi out of him at once to create the small sun. Not only were his meridians in constant pain, even his naval area felt a little strained.

As a person with medical knowledge, he knew that if he went any further, that would be extremely bad.

A man sent out a formation plate, which quickly deployed into some sort of formation with a barrier. Alex didn't realize what the formation did at first, but soon, he got it.

It was a vision-impairing formation. Inside the formation, only he was likely trapped in the shroud of darkness unable to see what was outside.

He could fly out, but there was a one-way barrier there. Fortunately, these bandits didn't know about Spiritual sense.

Alex sent him out to the fullest as he sensed 3 spear-shaped green lights flash towards him.

At the same time, a talisman flew towards him from the side. If he knew to do anything, it would be to get as far away from that talisman.

He suddenly stopped flying, and his body fell through the sky. The spear turned mid-flight and turned towards him.

Alex had his blade shine a little as a layer of white light appeared around it. He used the Sword Intent to add power to his slashes as he barely destroyed the 3 green spears.

At the same time, he pulled his hands back and threw his sword upwards to the talisman that was diving toward him.

As soon as the sword struck it, the talisman exploded into so much light that even Alex could see it through the black shroud.

He landed on the ground, did a roll, and grabbed the sword that came flying down like a bullet let go from a barrel.

He changed the sword's trajectory a bit, and the sword slammed onto the ground, hitting the formation plate perfectly, cutting it in half.

The barrier and the black shroud disappeared, and he could see the stunned looks of the bandits.

It was fortunate that they didn't know how to fight together, or he would've likely gotten attacked way more than just that right now.

Alex looked at them from the ground and sighed. He was going to have to hurt his meridians once more, wasn't he?

A ball of fire appeared behind him, enhanced by yang Qi to look like a small sun.

The 6 of them immediately got into defensive stances, even going so far as to bring out their treasures to protect themselves.

They looked at Alex get his sword ready, then… he vanished.

Instantly, the 6 of them used their defensive techniques and waited for the attacks to land. However, no attacks did come their way.

Instead, the light only got dimmer but didn't go out. When they looked below to see what had happened, their eyes went wide.

Their comrades, the ones that were fainted or just wounded were now burning with the same fire as the sun.

However, there was no sign of Alex at all.

"Brother, where did he—"

The man who put down the formation had his words cut short as his head rolled from his body.

Even then, the 5 of them had no idea where Alex had disappeared to.
