Preparation

It had been half a year since Pearl's return. 

His family and friends had been more than happy to see Pearl back and Pearl was happy to see them too. While Alex was away, busy with his own things, Pearl spent his time with the others, just like Whisker.

Alex didn't waste his time either. Since they were going to the other continent soon, he spent most of his time making pills that would be helpful. He also improved the techniques he had combined to the greatest possible level and practiced them with Scarlet.

Scarlet won easily as Alex had nowhere near enough strength to even harm her, but the difference in strength and speed did help him get more and more used to the power.

He did various other things as well, such as learning the many skills that used spiritual energy, all of which he had brought back from the Western Continent. He had made quite a few more blood beasts as well and finally had improved his cultivation base to the Saint Core 6th realm.
