Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

“What have you been feeding the two trees?” Alex asked Whisker who had been going around the 4th mountain, checking on the Alchemy plants that were growing there.

A lot of True beasts roamed those mountains, so he had to make sure some of them didn’t end up eating the important ones.

“Brother? You are free?” Whisker asked.

“For the moment,” Alex said. “The trees seem to be coming along nicely.”

“Yes, they are,” Whisker said. “That one still tries to eat me when I get too close. I have to keep teleporting out or I will die.”

He was talking about the World Tree.

“It’s still growing and will feed on anything it can find to grow,” Alex said.

Whisker nodded. “That water you got has been very helpful. It has gotten a lot less needy ever since I started feeding it. But now I need more of it. I’m running out of it.”

“Back to using that formation then, I guess,” Alex said. The water he got from that one fountain in the Twin Saber sect’s maze would be impossible to find again.

Ocean water would certainly work, although he wasn’t sure how the salt in the water would affect the world tree. Salt was a big no when it came to regular plants after all, but the World Tree was anything but regular.

He would have to try when he had the chance next. Ocean water was enriched with Qi after all.

“How is the other one doing?” Alex asked.

“Good,” Whisker said. “It’s growing nicely, but it is making it difficult to grow anything near it.”

“Sucking away all the nutrients from the ground?” Alex asked. “I saw the area surrounding it was a bit dry.”

“More like burning everything,” Whisker said. “In the past decade, the area surrounding that tree had gotten so hot that nothing grows anymore. It’s like that place is a desert now.”

“Hmm… try planting cactus and similar plants. See if that works,” Alex said.

Whisker thought for a bit. “I’ll need the seeds for those. There are none at the moment.”

“I’ll get you some soon,” Alex said. While he did think desert plants would work, he didn’t know for how long it could work. Sooner or later, the tree was going to get so hot that it would char everything in the surroundings. Hell, the entire Forbidden Fields had been a desert because the mature Nine Yang Divine Tree had created an atmosphere of intense Yang and thus caused the entire place to become deserted.

And that place had been many times larger than the Demon Realm.

Whether Alex liked it or not, sooner or later, he would have to move the Nine Yang Divine tree to another location, most likely the first mountain. And then, maybe outside of the Demon Realm itself. Alex checked on a few more things. The mulberry trees were coming along just fine, and the Heavenly Silkworms seemed to be multiplying at a steady rate as well. By now, there were close to 500 of these tiny worms, and they spun out the silk threads once every few years.

One would have to spin multiple of these threads to get a single proper thread. Alex had been wanting to make a uniform out of these silk threads for a long time, but at the rate, everything was going, he would have to continue waiting for much longer.

After checking everything else, Alex checked on one last thing.

He checked on the World Tree itself. Getting his Spiritual sense close to the World Tree was annoying because the tree sucked in the Spiritual sense when it sensed it.

So, he had to stay further away. He approached slowly and carefully. He arrived at the vicinity of the tree and got even more careful.

Alex couldn’t see anything just yet. He just knew the tree was there somewhere. All that he saw about this tree was through Whisker’s eyes. But now, he was close to sensing it.

“True Qi,” Alex thought, appearing a little surprised. “And very strong at that too.” He had expected the Qi to be in the True realm, but not as strong as it was. A bit more and the Qi would change to Saint Qi.

This… was incredible.

If the tree truly did start producing Saint Qi and grew to a point where it did not need to grow anymore, he could start growing Saint ingredients right around the World Tree.

All the world tree truly needed once it grew to its natural size was sunlight. It was a tree that could turn Sunlight into Qi. Temporarily it may be so, but it was enough for plants to grow and beasts to cultivate.

Alex couldn’t wait for all of the improvements. “Take care of everything, Whisker. I will return to cultivation soon once again,” he said and left his Soul Space.

After making sure his Soul Space was in order, Alex went out to buy some more resources and returned sometime later. Then, he began making pills once more.

Alex didn’t make the Heavensent Invincibility pill again. It had only been 3 years, and he knew he wasn’t strong enough to reach that level of strength just yet. He had been improving his Spiritual energy and Intent, so there was bound to be improvement in making the pill as well.

However, the ingredients of the pill were just too expensive for him to want to try it just yet. He would rather not waste his spirit stones since he hadn’t broken through just yet.

Once he broke through, he would no doubt try that as soon as he could.

For now, he simply made the pills that were necessary for his cultivation base and began his long-closed cultivation once again.

Qi Cultivation, Undying Physique, Demon Eyes, Body Cultivation, Standing Pendulum, Spiritual Conjunction technique, and finally the paintings were all that Alex trained on one after another for the next 3 and a half years.

At the end of that period of time, he finally reached a bottleneck and then focused all of his time on just Qi cultivation. A month later, Alex broke through once again.

He reached the Immortal Ascendant 5th realm.

Finally, after 13 years of entering closed cultivation, 23 years after joining the Blue Silk sect, and nearly 30 years of coming to this world, he had finally reached the cultivation base he needed to leave this world. Alex had completed one of the requirements to get a ticket.

Alex remained in cultivation for a few weeks more, consolidating his cultivation base to the new realm he had brought it to. Once he was certain that he was done, he got up and left the cave.

There wasn’t much time before he needed to leave for the other world now. Silvermist had said 20 years, but that was the maximum it would take considering that each Interrealm teleportation formation ran once every 10 years.

If this Snowleaf guy was lucky, he would’ve found a way out just over 2 years ago. If he had average luck, he would still be coming here within the next 2 years.

“I don’t have much time indeed,” Alex said to himself. “So I need to go get all the tickets I can as soon as possible.”
