Chapter 1817 Pearl's Command
Yan Yating's sword slash took the form of a giant four-legged beast that flew across the air toward the Emperor.
The Emperor's spear attack was one that always took the shape of a dragon.
The two attacks clashed in the sky and the world seemed to lose its color upon impact. Reality warped where the two attacks touched each other and ripples were sent through space that broke and reformed immediately.
"How long do you wish to keep this up?" the Dragon Emperor asked. "You cannot think that you can beat me by fighting straight, can you?"
The Dragon Emperor sent out another attack, throwing tendrils of lightning in all directions, attacking not just Yan Yating but also every other location that the attack could land on.
Most of those who were attacked were people who were too weak to protect themselves and had to hide behind others.
The Dragon Emperor could see that his army had lost the
battle, so all that remained was for him to win the war. So, he
started attacking more recklessly, without a need to worry
about who the stray shot landed on.
Yan Yating did his best to stop all the attacks, but the attack
was too vast for him to get to all of them and stop them. He
had to rely on the people behind him to protect themselves.
The only good thing that came through this was the fact that
the Dragon Emperor was wasting more Immortal Qi than he
needed to.
Yan Yating, as a Saint Transformation 8th realm cultivator, had
maybe 35% of his Qi as Immortal Qi. The Emperor, just one
realm higher, would have nearly 50% of his Qi be Immortal Qi.
That discrepancy was something that he had to fight through.
Yan Yating had been notified by the others that the Emperor
had regained all of his Immortal Qi back, so he had to be
careful.
'Let him use his Qi without any thought,' Yan Yating thought.
'The more he uses, the better my chance of besting him.'
The Dragon Emperor was a being that had haunted him for
the past 70 years, so he was more than ready to get it all over
with.
He returned once again to attack the Dragon Emperor and
force him to use more of his Qi.

Pearl flickered and appeared in four places at once, each one
of him dashing toward the woman that had charged in wildly
to attack him.
She had a crazy look on her face and a wild grin, and she kept
saying that she wanted to kill him to get on the Emperor's
good side.
Thankfully, she overestimated her strength in front of him as
he too had a battle prowess far beyond what the others saw of
him.
The woman created a vortex of fire in front of her, with the
tail end of it facing one of the four Pearls.
She stared at each of the four Pearls at once, attacking the
one 2nd from the left.
The vortex turned sharper and launched a fiery arrow toward
that one Pearl.
Pearl's body glowed bright golden just as the attack landed on
him, and stopped the attack.
The woman smiled. "Haha!" she shouted. "You can't hide from
me."
A ball of fire appeared in her hands and she launched it toward
Pearl. The fire took on the shape of a diving hawk and
slammed against the same Pearl she attacked earlier.
The Pearl that was attacked suddenly turned illusory,
disappearing into motes of golden light that spread toward
the other three Pearls that still remained on the field, who
kept charging at her.
One of the Pearl arrived right in front of her and swung his
arm at her. His paw glowed bright golden as well as he used
the Golden Tiger Claw technique etched into his bloodline
The air seemed to hold behind a streak of glowing light where
the claw passed and the woman quickly used a defensive
talisman to protect herself at the last moment.
A burst of energy appeared from the talisman, fighting back
the incoming paw strike. And in that burst of energy, Pearl
disappeared once again.
He turned into motes of golden light that flickered back into
the two other Pearls who had arrived in front of the women as
well and they both attacked.
The woman had already fought back and she found it difficult
to bring herself to do so at just this moment. Still, she
concentrated raw Qi in her hands and pushed it toward the
Pearl on the left.
The Pearl on the right attacked her and instantly swiped his
claw through her face, ripping away a chunk of her face.
The woman screamed and tried to fly back, but golden lines
appeared from Pearl, like wires that caught the woman in it,
stopping her from moving any further.
His claw glowed once again and he swung it at the woman's
head once more.
This time, the woman's face caved in, crushing her skull
entirely. Her body died at that instant.
The other Pearl had already turned into motes of life, entering
the real Pearl, becoming once.
The woman's body slumped under Pearl's binding, and a small
blue illusory soul flew out from her body.
Pearl roared at the soul and it crumbled into motes of light,
dying just there.
"Good fighting, young lord," someone spoke from behind
Pearl.
Pearl turned around and saw the leader of the Lizard colony
moving toward him. He then looked around the battlefield and
saw many of the other beasts smiling toward him.
They had been waiting patiently for him to be done with his
battle.
"You are only at Saint Core 7th realm, and you can kill people
in the Saint Soul realm. You truly are the son of his Majesty,"
the Lizard said.
"Why have you all stopped fighting?" Pearl asked.
The blue Eagle moved toward Pearl. "Young lord, the battle is
all but done," she said, pointing toward the few fights that
happened here and there.
"We have won, young lord," the Lizard said.
Pearl felt the intense aura of battle coming from a distance far
away. He looked at the fight between the Dragon Emperor
and Yan Yating.
"No," he said. "It's not over."
He pointed toward the Dragon Emperor. "As long as he is alive,
the battle is not over."
The beasts looked toward the Dragon Emperor too and
grimaced. "We're afraid we are not that useful in that regard,"
the Deer answered. "We're not strong enough to contend
against him."
"No," Pearl said. "But you will make for a fine annoyance."
Pearl raised his voice and spoke to every beast, both from the
Beast Paradise and the ones that were under his great
Grandfather.
"Everyone in the Saint Transformation realm, listen up!" he
roared a command. "If you have any Immortal Qi in you, do
not keep it. Attack it at that man. Distract him with all the
power you can muster."
The beasts looked toward the Dragon Emperor, with great
consideration in their face.
"Attack him all at once, so we may kill him," Pearl shouted.
"This is my command as the ruler of the Eastern Continent.
Go!"
