Chapter 349: Trapped (2/2)

'My hair?' Alex thought with surprise and felt his hair. Suddenly, he realized that his hair was long. He left his hair and went on to check his face with both his hands and the spiritual sense.

”Oh no,” he thought in fear. The 58 hours for the Face Change Pill he had eaten had already expired. He was back to having his own face.

'I forgot to take another pill today.'

”Not bad, for an Organ Tempering realm individual. You are quite rich,” Zexi said as he held a few storage bags in his arms. ”Thankfully, you won't escape from me this time.”

”Those are my storage bags?” Alex thought and quickly checked his robes. He didn't have a single storage bag anymore.

”I see you have quite a few ingredients for alchemy. Makes sense since you are an alchemist,” Zexi said. ”Although, do tell me, how exactly did you get the Spirit Cleansing Lilies? As far as I know, while the flowers themselves are not uncommon, they are incredibly hard to pick since only one of them is a real one. Is that not true?” he asked.

Alex didn't answer. ”Give me back my storage bag,” he demanded.

”Oh no, that's not happening this time. I was fair to you last time, but you don't get that opportunity this time. This time, I will get the information out of you myself,” Zexi said.

The moment he said that his eyes turned upwards and he lost consciousness. At the same time, Alex teleported right next to him and hit him with a second dose of Heaven's impact.

He then immediately stole back his storage bags and used the Earth Devour technique to leave once more. The moment he activated his technique, the earth beneath his body opened up and Alex was devoured inside. He was then taken away by the earth.

He could feel himself moving at incredible speed through the earth as he—

BANG

Suddenly, he hit something inside the earth and was ejected outside once again.

”What?” he thought as he quickly sent out his spiritual sense. In front of him, he could see and sense the same fogs that hindered his sense of direction.

While behind him was a perfectly normal forest that had not a single bit of fog.

Alex tried to walk towards it and hit something again. ”Ow,” he screamed as he rubbed his forehead. He placed his arms forward and realized that there was an invisible barrier disrupting his entry and exit.

”Another formation?” Alex said in shock.

”Oh, it works,” Zexi spoke from behind him. ” I was hoping it would when I set up that formation. Your disappearance trick was a little bit of a problem for me you know.”

”So I had to set up both formations, just for you. The barrier formation to keep you from leaving, and the Spirit Disorienting formation to keep you inside at all times,” Zexi said.

”Since I was good enough to set it up as a mid-Earth Grade formation, we have anywhere from 30-40 days of time with each other.

”I hope I get to learn a lot about you.”
