Chapter 2164  Survive

The man hadn't expected such a major difference all of a sudden and was caught off guard.

The man quickly began fighting back, surprised that all 5 of the Pearls had weight to their body. They were as real as they could be while still being fake. They all felt the same, their powers about the same on all fronts.

He had no issue dealing with the attacks from the clone, but should the real one attack him at the right moment, he would be in trouble. He managed to stab through one of the clones, but the body simply turned into glittering light, transferring into the remaining four. For some reason, all of their intensity increased at the same time.

Fire Dao blossomed around him, quickly turning into a strong destructive attack that destroyed two of the Pearl right then and there. Those Pearls turned into glittering light as well and quickly vanished into the two remaining ones.

The two remaining ones became more difficult to fight now.

The feeling the man got from the fight was that while weaker, the two Pearls he fought were real. He couldn't tell how that was possible, but it was.

He quickly overpowered one of the Pearl and stabbed his spear right through his head. The Pearl faded away, returning to the final Pearl that remained.

Pearl swung his spear at an angle, but the man blocked it in time before stabbing back in retaliation himself. Pearl teleported away.

Once again, there was distance between them. Only this time, Pearl didn't feel as much of a dilemma anymore. He had two choices. Either he had to fight up close and make it difficult for the man to dodge, or he had to fight from further away and give himself a chance to dodge.

The choices were between the two if anyone else was in Pearl's situation. But for Pearl, they were the same choices.

He remained further away, propping his spear parallel to the ground while preparing one of the other techniques Grimsight had taught him. Golden energy swirled all around him, quickly concentrating on the spear as it spun into a destructive force.

Then, Pearl stabbed forward.

The man expected the attack to fly toward him and got ready to defend against it. However, to his horror, he suddenly found himself face-to-face with the spear itself.

He hurriedly swung his spear, trying to parry the attack, but it still left a nasty gash along his left arm. His arm began bleeding at once before slowly stopping and then healing altogether.

The man turned back, staring at Pearl, completely unaware of what had just happened. How had the spear attacked him when Pearl was still so far away?

Grimsight raised his only eyebrow in surprise. He had known Pearl had the ability to manipulate space aura, but he had never expected him to learn such a unique Dao surrounding it. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Not everyone learned such a Space dao, giving them the ability to shrink the space between two points, allowing them to physically pass between a large space with small movement.

That meant that while Pearl stayed further away, his spear could move through space to find his opponent. That made his opponent have a hard time dodging attacks and had to focus on defending against them.

Pearl quickly got the upper hand in the battle. Despite being weaker than his opponent, because he could fight in close combat while not being close, it made his opponent struggle for a while.

He attacked fast and quick, giving his opponent little chance to pause and understand what was going on. No one would want their enemy to figure out what they were doing in a real fight after all.

However, despite everything he did, the lack of cultivation base showed him just how impossible it was for him to beat someone in a higher realm than him. Even though he had gotten the upper hand, his opponent was easily defending against it, even if that was the only thing he was doing.

Pearl was on the offensive, but that did not lead to victory.

And then, after a few minutes, his opponent began getting used to the attacks. He even started dodging attacks and getting close to Pearl.

Pearl teleported around, but that made it difficult to keep track of his two Dao at once. He wasn't so used to it after all.

The battle quickly reached a balanced point once again where neither was on the offensive nor the defensive. And then, a few moments later, it changed once again. Pearl was on the defensive now, running around, trying to get an attack in while he could. But, because of the cultivation base difference, his attacks were much stronger, and thus his chances of winning were much higher.

His opponent also seemed angry enough that he was no longer holding back, even unconsciously as he had before. That made it more difficult for Pearl to fight.

Pearl was quickly pushed to a corner, unable to do much except stay in the battle. And even that was slipping away from him.

As desperation grew, so did Pearl's desire to win. 'Don't mess it up, Pearl. Keep fighting,' he thought. 'You can win.'

He dodged one attack, barely parried another, and then teleported out once more.

'The one that wins is not the one who is stronger, but the one who stays standing until the end,' Pearl told himself. 'Just keep on fighting. Even if I get hit, I need to keep on going.'

He got sliced in the leg, nearly blowing it all right off. He was knocked back, rolling on the ground, leaving a trail of blood. It healed slowly.

'Stand back up. Fight.' That was all he could tell himself at that moment to keep going. He shrunk space to grab his spear that was further away from him and pulled it back before striking back.

He got back up, getting back into the fight. His father's words came back to him, a memory he had nearly forgotten from the time when he had been in the blood pool where he evolved. The memory of his father's voice, the thunderous sound that he still remembered.

'You must survive, Shouchuang. Survive and Live!'

Pearl got stabbed close to his upper right shoulder, but he barely managed to use the White Tiger's Dominating body in time to stop it from destroying his right arm completely.

He fell back down on the ground, lying in the blood that flowed out of him and pooled around him. That had been the most devastating strike he had taken all fight.

The man paused, wondering if the battle was over. But it was not over. Pearl could still keep going.

Pearl gritted his teeth and slowly got back up, his eyes nearly glowing with their golden color now and his spear glowing white with Spear Qi.

'I will survive,' he thought with great focus. 'I will live.'

The spear in his hand buzzed ever so slightly, and the Spear Qi surrounding his spear began sparking out.

Grimsight was the only one to notice this, and he couldn't help but smile upon noticing. 'He's finally learned Spear Aura.'
