After eating a few pills, Pearl was healed as well. Then together, he and Alex started cultivating.
They cultivated without stopping for the next 5 days as it took Alex that much time even with all of his pills to return back to how strong he used to be.
"I should have been close to breaking through to the 5th realm, but that has been pushed back a little," Alex said softly. "I need better cultivation though if I want to fight the Emperor."
"He's strong, isn't he?" Pearl asked. "How can you become strong enough to fight him in a short time?"
"By being reckless, Pearl," Alex sighed. "By being reckless."
He had been giving it some thought but he truly saw no other way to do what must be done. He needed to get stronger and the only way to do that was to do what Scarlet did to become strong once again.
In the same way, all the players got strong quickly, while forcing their cultivation base to not be as stable.
