Chapter 2063 Battle's End
Alex entered the fight with the group, bringing out Pearl to aid in the battle. With the two of them added, there was no way they could lose.
Alex disposed of the fighters one by one, going through them to defeat them all. The people who fought quickly realized that he was taking them out individually, so many gathered to fight him as a group.
They were a disheveled group, with no formation of any sort. These people had rarely worked together in a fight and it showed.
But that didn't matter much when they just stayed on one side and threw out a ton of attacks all at once.
All sorts of techniques flew out of the group, coming directly for Alex.
Alex looked at the attack, seeing that they were all lined up perfectly for him. He readied Midnight and waited for the attacks to reach him.
At the same time as it entered the range of his Sword Domain, he activated it, sending all the Sword Qi to target the incoming attacks.
At the same time, he swung Midnight.
True Immolation strike
A bright line of fire cut through all the different attacks, destroying them all at once. It cut the attacks in half, which exploded only a second later.
The attack continued, flying directly toward the people who attacked him, causing many of them to be teleported away, while the others were forced to bring out their life-saving treasures.
Alex teleported beside them and began quickly fighting the rest, sending them out as well.
A while later, after enough people were defeated, and more ran away, there were only so many that still remained.
Ninerise had won his battle against Ye Wenjie and came up to Alex once he was done with the fight. He stood by Alex, looking toward Primrose's fight which was the only one with any consequence there. "What was that mirror?" Ninerise asked.
"A treasure I own," Alex replied.
"I saw it was quite strong. Who gave it to you?"
Alex looked at the young man who was no older than him in age. "Found it in an auction," he replied.
"I only saw you use it once. Can you use it again?" he asked.
"Screw you all," the man said and took out his escape talisman before teleporting out of the secret realm.
Once he was gone, Alex finally stopped constantly employing the Hell Emperor's Divine Battle Array.
A wave of shouts as well as exhaustion passed through the group as people were finally happy to know that the battle was complete and they had won.
Primrose walked back up to where Alex and the rest were. "We did it," she said. "What now?"
"I... don't know," Miao Wupeng said. "It's over, isn't it?" "There's 2 more months, but... yeah," Primrose said. "We won against every group. I don't think there are people that will want to form another group and come after us."
"Great," Alex said and turned around. "I have work to do, goodbye."
Alex's sudden departure came as a shock to the people who were gathered, but none of them could say a thing to stop him. Before they were over their shock, Alex had already run far away, making his way to the Trueheart plaza.
From there, Alex continued what he had started, going through the plaza. The four sections of the Trueheart plaza were representative of the four chambers of a human heart, and thanks to it, Alex could tell what major meridian passed through here and went on.
As he was in the middle of checking it all, he noticed Ninerise from the side of his vision, coming toward him. The man wasn't hiding himself, but he didn't make his presence known either.
Alex stopped and looked at him.
"What are you doing here?" he asked the young man.
"Trying to see what you're doing," the young man said, looking around at the open hall of the plaza. "Are you searching for something?"
"I am," Alex said. "If you don't mind, I need to get back to it."
"Sure," Ninerise said and let Alex get back to work. He didn't leave immediately and sat around watching him. After a while, he walked up to him again.
"Are you trying to see what those white lines are?" the young man asked.
Alex sighed, annoyed at being distracted again. "Can I please be left alone?"
"My uncle said something about the place here all being names of organs. That might help you a little," the young man asked.
Alex turned to look at him, surprised. "You know about that?" he asked.
The young man simply shrugged. "My uncle told me a while ago. I can't really see what that could mean though," he said before looking at the white lines. "Are you following these lines because they lead to these organs?"
As soon as he said it, the gears in his head began turning.
