Chapter 2045: The Graves

The woman fell back in shock, quickly putting aside her sword and raising her hands. "I give up. I d-don't want to fight anymore," she shouted. That was the last Alex had to deal with her.

Alex turned around, intending to go help Pearl. But to his pleasant surprise, Pearl was holding his own.

The old man he fought had a decent concealment technique to hide his cultivation base, but that meant little when he wasn't strong at all. At around Immortal Ascendant 5th realm cultivation base, Pearl was plenty enough to defeat him.

Pearl didn't immediately win, choosing to fight with his Spear and train while he was at it. He had to start developing his Spear Intent as soon as he could, so he had to force himself to fight with just the spear for as long as he could.
