Half of Alex's body had been covered in gold, one which he couldn't remove in time. And on top of that, the Lion was now using his Immortal Qi to attack him.
If Alex couldn't do anything in time, he would most definitely not come out of this fight alive.
He teleported away, outside of the formation, still constrained by the gold that covered him. He tried flying away, but his speed wasn't as fast.
He made it outside of the colony, but that was barely far enough at all. The Lion's spiritual sense was on him and wasn't letting go at all.
Alex flexed his dantian, sending out as much Yang Qi as he could outside to cover his entire body. The Spiritual sense was destroyed thanks to that, and the gold that grew on his body was also slowly being burned away.
However, it was already too late.
The Lion's body turned ethereal with golden Qi glowing all around him as he became a golden entity that emanated extreme metal energy all around him.
