Chapter 1832 Strong
Qi, Blood Aura, Spiritual Energy, Sword Aura, Dao of Yin and Cutting, and the sheer power provided to him through Godslayer's corruption, poured into the technique carved into Midnight's body.
The God Rending Death Blade technique.
A sword slash of pitch black flew out from Alex, making its way toward the Dragon Emperor who had readied himself against anything dangerous.
A bolt of lightning flew out from his spear thrust, turning into an illusory white and blue dragon that moved toward the black sword slash.
The two attacks clashed at the center, creating an explosion of black and white light, where neither of the two came close to winning against each other.
"What is this?" the Dragon Emperor watched the result of their clash in horror. "How is it this strong?"
Just as he thought that he sensed something coming toward him from the explosion. A weak attack flew out that the Dragon Emperor easily swatted away. However, the meaning behind that left him stunned.
Alex's attack had not just contended with his own attack equally, it had surpassed his attack in a way, which was simply preposterous to him.
Alex was pleasantly surprised by the result as well.
"Yes! You have a chance," Godslayer shouted in Alex's mind.
Alex smiled. "I do."
Alex flew through the explosion before him, preparing another attack. He swung another sword slash toward the Dragon Emperor, this time without using the technique that was carved into Midnight.
He used Bursting Blaze, pouring the True Fire Dao into his attack, letting out an explosive attack that rendered the Dragon Emperor's attack null while letting him know that he was the weaker attack.
Alex punched, sending out four Golden Spear that launched toward the Dragon Emperor.
The Dragon Emperor fought back with a defensive attack, creating a cage of lightning to surround him, which defended against all of Alex's attacks.
The lightning cage vanished and he let out an attack, sending many dozens of somewhat weaker lightning bolts toward Alex.
He still couldn't understand just how it was that Alex could fight against him with more than equal prowess. He was an Immortal, empowered by the highest power that one could afford to use in this land.
And somehow, Alex was keeping up with him despite being nowhere close to an Immortal. The worst part about it all was that Alex wasn't even using Immortal Qi. As a newly broken-
through cultivator, he wouldn't even have it.
That only made the Dragon Emperor fear just how strong Alex would have been in a couple of years, had he left the man time to grow.
It was great luck that the Dragon Emperor had somehow put the man on a 20-year time constraint to show himself before him. If not, he might have had to fight against someone who could kill him with a single swing of his sword.
The Dragon Emperor preemptively attacked, sending out a sweet melody all around him. It was an attack he rarely had to use, as he was too strong to have to bother with techniques like these.
However, it seemed that he had to do so today.
Alex heard the sweet melody and gave a twisted grin. He swung back immediately, ignoring the melody to fight back.
The Dragon Emperor's eyes widened and he quickly retaliated. The explosion this time was close enough that he felt a strong shockwave fall onto him.
And in that shockwave was a weak little mental strength that flew to attack him.
The Dragon Emperor felt his mind ache a little from the attack, not enough to harm him, but enough to be of minor inconvenience.
But that told him something that he had feared was true from the start.
'His attacks have spiritual energy attached to them,' he thought. 'If I get hit directly with that alone, I will be in trouble.'
The Dragon Emperor flew back, creating some distance between himself and Alex, while Alex slowly followed behind.
The Dragon Emperor moved even further back, growing more and more away from Alex, forcing Alex to follow even more.
And when he thought it was enough, he immediately stopped moving and brought out a small vial. At the same time, he stopped using his Dao, forcing the expanded space he had been leaving behind to collapse immediately, pulling both him and Alex face to face at once.
Before Alex could react, the Dragon Emperor sprayed the remaining contents of the vial onto Alex.
