At this moment, Miles Cole was clearly very powerful. Upon seeing the formidable might of Miles Cole, Peter Brown’s face turned pale. It was clear that Miles Cole was determined to fight to the death.
"Hmph, you want to kill me? Well, let’s see how well you fare after I slaughter all the elites of the Cultivation World!"
Miles Cole stopped battling the foundation establishment experts and instead charged at the cultivators below foundation establishment, who were currently engaged in fierce battle.
Miles Cole picked up a bronze tool that Peter had used previously for formation setup, and wielding it forcefully, he smashed it towards an area.
As true Qi surged and gusts of powerful wind blew, the Kunlun Sect disciples who were fighting enemy forces at that spot were instantly killed by the smashing attack.
Miles Cole charged in another direction.
Seeing this situation, Clayton Evans loudly commanded, "Surround him!"
As he spoke, he charged forward without a second’s delay.
At this time, the entire battle revolved around them. The cultivators, being wise, had already moved their own battles to a faraway place. Now, eight of them encircled Miles Cole and battled with him.
Just then, a long howl came from afar, indicating that another person had successfully reached foundation establishment.
Soon after, a voice rang out loudly, "Head of the Heaven and Earth Society, Kyra Harrison has arrived!"
A middle-aged man dressed in traditional clothes arrived with a floaty grace. Upon assessing the situation, he didn’t engage in the battle with Miles Cole but instead charged at the members of the Alchemy Alliance.
Successful in foundation establishment, with every thrust of his long sword, Kyra Harrison killed one person instantly. In no time, over a dozen people had fallen by his hand.
"Congratulations on your successful foundation establishment, Leader Kyra, let me lend you a hand," another middle-aged man floated towards them, his movements exuding a strong power; clearly, he too was successful in foundation establishment.
As Kyra Harrison glanced at the man, he burst into laughter, "Congratulations to Palm Master Eli of Mount Emei."
With a hearty laugh, Palm Master Eli Brown of Mount Emei said, "I have Peter to thank. Without him, I wouldn’t have known when I could successfully achieve foundation establishment.
The two joined forces and charged at the members of the Elixir Master Alliance.
With the addition of these two foundation establishment experts, the members of the Elixir Master Alliance, who had been maintaining a slight advantage until then, began to show signs of deterioration and collapse.
As the two sides engaged in a fierce battle, six more people emerged from the Kunlun Sect but their faces wore looks of dismay.
From their expressions, Peter Brown immediately deduced that they had failed in foundation establishment.
Out of ten foundation-establishing pills, only four people were successful while six failed. This showed that reaching foundation establishment was no easy feat.
"Alas, I’m embarrassed, Peter," sighed Palm Master Amir Harris of the Iron Sword Sect.
"Don’t be disheartened, Palm Master Amir. As long as we have Lingcao herbs, I can refine more pills for you," Peter consoled.
Palm Master Henderson, Theodore also sighed, "Please refine a batch for my Hengshan Sect too when the time comes!" He too, surprisingly, didn’t manage to break through.
After glancing at Theodore, Peter said, "Rest assured, I will specially refine a batch for each of you. You can also pool your Lingcao herbs together for another attempt."
"We’re grateful for your help!"
After they finished speaking, they braced themselves and plunged back into the human wave of battle.
Although they were unsuccessful in foundation establishment, it was clear that their cultivation levels were quite high. With the addition of these six to the battlefield, the course of the battle changed once again, overwhelming the strength of the Elixir Master Alliance.
From a thousand people with cultivation at the tenth level of Qi refining, only around a hundred or two remained stubbornly resisting.
As Peter had kept his livestream running, many spectators already felt nauseous. They had never witnessed such a brutal battle before, and their faces had turned extremely pale.
"So this is the real situation in the Cultivation World!" A user named Winter Solstice sighed and soon, his words elicited a wave of similar sentiments, drawing many people into the discussion.
The once-glorious image of Cultivation World in the viewers’ minds had now changed drastically. As they surveyed the battlefield littered with corpses, they gained a new understanding of cultivation.
By streaming the ongoing fight and showcasing the brutal side of the Cultivation World, Peter wanted to temper the blind enthusiasm that many people held for cultivation, not knowing that it was not an easy task.
Assessing the situation on the field, Peter knew that the battle was nearing its end.
Miles Cole had clearly noticed the prevailing conditions on the battlefield and was now yelling furiously.
At this moment, everyone could see that Miles Cole’s body had started to shrink.
"Push harder, he’s not going to last much longer!" David Taylor yelled and launched an even fiercer attack towards Miles Cole.
The foundation establishment masters surrounded Miles Cole, leaving him with no opportunity to kill any ordinary cultivators. Everyone was satisfied with this strategy.
"Hmph, let’s all die together!"
In the midst of his words, Miles Cole suddenly produced a poison pill, eying the people who surrounded him.
Peter had been covertly watching Miles Cole and knew he had a backup plan. The moment he saw Miles Cole attempting to use poison, Peter quickly took out his Antidote Pearl.
Peter’s potent true qi created a mist, dispersing from the Antidote Pearl and swiftly spread out to encompass everyone within it.
The faint mist didn’t obstruct anyone’s view, seeing Peter’s preparedness in action, the head of the Wudang Clan, Travis Fletcher, laughed loudly: "Miles Cole, whatever tricks you have, bring them all out."
The Palm Master of the Kongtong Faction, Clayton Evans, also laughed heartily, "Miles Cole, never thought you would see such a day. You hunted down and killed the alchemists of my faction just because they refused to join your Alliance. Today, I shall avenge them!"
Miles Cole had hoped to use the poison pill to kill all his opponents. He had great confidence in his poison pill. However, when he exposed the poison pill, he saw that it had no effect whatsoever. His poison pill was unexpectedly neutralized by Peter.
At this point, the hatred Miles Cole bore towards Peter was bone-deep. Without Peter, none of this would have happened. Filled with this thought and enduring David Taylor’s punch while he spat out mouthfuls of blood, he charged towards Peter.
Miles Cole had been pounding his large bronze cauldron until it was heavily deformed. Now, he aimed it at Peter.
If it were earlier, Peter would have been afraid to confront Miles Cole directly. However, now that Miles Cole’s true Qi was exhausted and an hour was almost up, Peter didn’t care about his attack. Instead, he rushed towards Miles Cole.
Peter’s broadsword crashed onto the bronze cauldron.
With a thunderous noise echoing out, Peter’s sword remained unaffected. After all, it was an inherited broadsword, whereas Miles Cole’s bronze cauldron was split open by Peter’s blow.
The impact of the sword forced Miles Cole to retreat.
