Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Whisker showed tremendous improvement during this time too. While he went in and out every few months, because Momo was getting better by herself now, he had more time to spend on himself.

Because of that, he slowly learned the rest of the Daos and ended up finally learning the True Flame Dao at the end of it. Now, all that remained was for him to just break through.

However, because Alex was close to going back to the tournament, everyone decided that it was best if Whisker waited until afterward.

Whisker would need to stay outside for a while to train after becoming an Immortal, so he could spend some time inside the Soul Space learning what he could for now.

Alex returned to Rosefall city but didn’t take residence there. Instead, he went to where Rosemist was, asking her to let them stay there for a while.

Rosemist agreed and allowed them to train there.

Pearl, Whisker, and Momo still found it a little uncomfortable being around Rosemist, but as time passed, they got used to the feeling. They were more or less used to it all by now.

Alex spent what few days he had next to the Voidgate, trying to learn any Dao he could. Alas, he couldn’t learn any Dao at all. However, there were still improvements all around, and he was getting close to learning a few. He could feel it.

Especially the Space ones. They were close to him. He just needed to reach out and grab it.

After a few weeks of stay, it was time for them to return.

“I’ll come in a few more years,” Alex told Rosemist. “Once I’m done with this pill I have to make, I’ll have more free time to visit this place.”

“Okay,” Rosemist said. “Come whenever you want to. I will always welcome you.”

Alex waved goodbye and made his way back into Rosefall city, from where he would next take the Intercontinental Teleportation formation back to God’s Domain.

10 years had passed since he took on the task of making this one pill, and he had gotten so close now. Surely, within the next decade, he would find the rest and make the pill.

The way back to the eastern regions of God’s Domain took not a few spirit stones, but to him who had made and sold so many pills now, it was practically pocket change. He had gathered close to 2 million spirit stones in the last 10 years, and most of it he hadn’t even sold.

Pills with pill veins just sold for a lot more than normal, some of them selling for tens of thousands of spirit stones. It was simply incredible.

He made his way back to Hardrock city, noticing the hundreds of thousands of people that made their way there as well. There were more than just the participants that were going there and it confused him at first why so many were going there.

However, upon asking a few people, he had come to realize that the city had been opened for regular people who could purchase their way in for the next month. They wouldn’t have any place to stay, but most Immortals could go months in a single place, so they would all be staying in one place, watching the tournament.

‘So the next competition isn’t going to ask us to do something for dozens of years, huh?’ he thought. It was going to be a competition more akin to the regular ones he had been part of the last few times.

Upon arriving at Hardrock city, he was told to go to another location far away where they handled the participants only. Alex arrived there with Pearl and Momo, with Whisker having already returned to his Soul Space.

“Your storage bag with the talisman,” the woman who was checking everything asked.

Alex handed over the storage bag with Midnight, Memory, and the other artifacts that also contained the talisman that held information about what he could use and what he could not.

The woman checked that quickly and then asked for their medallions. Alex and Pearl handed each of their own to be checked. The woman checked those as well and found it to have recorded nothing.

Which meant Alex had followed the rules without fail.

“Here, you will have to continue wearing this,” the woman said as she handed back the medallion. Afterward, she called for Momo. After testing the talisman to check that Momo was in fact his disciple, the woman then began testing to see if Momo had gone through Qi Deviation or not.

Momo was not even 27 years old yet, and she had already reached the True King realm, so the woman could only be curious if she had been forced to cultivate this quickly. After testing Momo for a few minutes, she came to the conclusion that she had not gone through Qi Deviation. So, they were free to go.

“Go wait there. You will be told what is happening next in a few minutes,” the woman said.

Alex thanked the woman and went over to a teleportation formation where a few dozen other people were already standing, waiting to be teleported.

Alex looked at the assortment of cultivators, from the Saint Core realm to the Immortal Spirit realm. Their disciples were even more different. All but one of them had entered the True realm, and one of them had even entered the Saint realm.

Alex had no doubt the young lady who had been made to cultivate that hard had not had the time for Alchemy. Which may have been a good choice if she could learn everything she needed in the next 40 years.

Only time would tell who made the right choice in the end.

A Divine realm cultivator walked toward them, a member of the Alchemy God’s guild.

“Everyone, pay attention please,” the man said. “The next competition is going to start in less than a week. You will know what the competition is on the day it starts, but before that, I need to explain to you a few things.”
