Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Like a man lost in a desert for days, finally seeing an Oasis, Godslayer drank the Darkness from the deathly toxin, taking it all into his incorporeal body within Alex's Spiritual sense.

"Take your book out. I need the Death aura too," Godslayer said and focused on what he was doing at the moment. Alex did as asked, bringing out the Blood God's Manual in front of him, which contained within it a massive amount of Death aura.

Godslayer needed both Death and Darkness aura at once to improve his strength permanently, so his dark tendrils reached onto the book as well, sucking away the Death aura within it.

Alex kept teleporting and attacking, but since his focus was entirely on stopping the man's skull from killing him, he couldn't attack back much at all.

The man kept swinging his chains around, knowing that one of these times he would get Alex.

"How long will you last? How long will your Intent last?" he shouted as he attacked. "You are going to meet my brothers soon. I'll have it be sooner."

Something appeared from within his Soul Space at the next moment. A dagger. He filled the dagger with Qi and suddenly threw it out.

Alex teleported, but even as he did, the dagger followed him around, coming right for him. The dagger continued changing its path as he teleported around, never leaving him alone.

Alex simply couldn't dodge it no matter how much he teleported around. In the end, he put up the shield and the dagger struck it right in the center.

To Alex's horror, the shield cracked as the dagger dug into it. It hadn't just emptied all of the shield's Qi but also broke through it. It didn't go past it thankfully, but because of this, now Alex couldn't use his shield at all.

He felt his body being corrupted by the dark energy from the man's spirit that pushed through him momentarily when he lost focus on what he was doing. He quickly suppressed it, but what did enter rampaged around.

He started letting his body fight it, but Godslayer spoke at the same time.

"No! Don't do it!" he shouted. "It will attack me too."

With Godslayer constantly controlling Alex's entire body, anything he did now would hurt the spirit. It wouldn't hurt him in a way that he would die, but he would certainly lose the strength he had managed to gather in all of these years.

Alex frowned, but stopped his body from acting up once again. At the same time, he fought the Spirit, stripping away the intent from the energy. He was thankful that the man hadn't noticed what was happening yet. He still believed that Alex was directly fighting off his Spirit and was forcing more into him.

Alex felt pain course through his entire body at once, the corrupting darkness power wreaking havoc throughout his internal organs. His body healed itself even as it was harmed, but that took away more of the Qi from Alex.

"Godslayer! I can't wait much longer," he said. "I will die if I don't do something soon."

Godslayer grumbled for a moment. "Alright, give me a few more seconds. Just a few more."

Alex teleported again, leaving the destroyed shield lying on the ground. He swung a simple attack, which flew toward the man.

The man casually knocked it away, now realizing that Alex could not get as strong as him. And in a matter of minutes, Alex's pills would run out as well, so he simply waiting for that to happen.

Alex's pills had run out long ago, and it was his body that sustained him at the moment. And even that would run out soon. He teleported again, dodging another chain attack that nearly cut him in half.

"Done!" Godslayer shouted. "Go, fight!"

Alex felt a surge of power pass through him. Somehow, thanks to the combination of Darkness and Death, Godslayer had improved some more. It wasn't enough to propel Alex's strength into the sky, but it was very much an improvement on what he had before this. Alex teleported, arriving next to the man. He hadn't gotten close in so long that the man hadn't expected him to do so. He reacted a second later, but it was more than late.

Alex swung his sword and let out a thin trail of fire.

True Immolation Strike caught the man off guard, cutting through his body while burning it at the same time. The man screamed out loud as the pain of his burning flesh was not something he could easily ignore.

An explosion of fire spread out from the attack, causing the man to suddenly burst into flame. The fire burned hotter than any flames the man had ever encountered.

Alex took the opportunity to attack again, but the man swung around his chains, having noticed what Alex was doing. Even as he was in pain, he had enough attention on the outside battle and knew when to protect himself.

The chain came for Alex, forcing him to teleport away.

When Alex arrived on the other side, he felt pain from deep within his chest, as though his heart was being forced to beat faster than any other time in the world.

"Urgh!" he grunted, collapsing onto one knee. The Spirit attack that had landed on him just once was hurting him too much. To survive, he needed his body to deal with the toxin. But to do that, he would have to get Godslayer back into his Spiritual Sea again.

"Kid! Stand up! You have to fight quickly or time will run out."

Even as Alex wasted his time kneeling on the ground, Godslayer was draining away his energy. He couldn't afford to lie down like this, but then again, the toxins were attacking his body.

'I… I need to kill him,' Alex thought. 'Quickly, before he can—'

Alex's thoughts were cut abruptly as he saw the man swing around his chain once more. He managed to teleport in time, but barely.

He teleported again, and this time it was too much for him. His body was tiring each second, and while his strength had improved since before, it had also come at the terrible cost of an overall increase in loss of his energy.

'One more attack,' Alex thought. There was one more attack he could do before Godslayer started draining his actual life, regressing his cultivation base.

This last attack would be his only one, so he had to make sure this was the strongest attack he could use.

He tried to and succeeded in ignoring the pain that was going through his entire body. Like a worm chewing through its food on the path, the man's Spirit was attacking his body so relentlessly. It was surprising how much of a problem it was.

'Ignore it,' Alex thought. 'Ignore and fight.'

He had to give his all to this one attack. Whatever the result, the rest would be out of Alex's hands.

He held Midnight tightly, using Endless Severing Strike as the basic preparation. There were other things he wanted to add to it to make it stronger, but for now, it would have to be True Fire Dao.

Once again, Alex prepared to use the True Immolation Strike.
