Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 1725 Mixture

Checking through himself, Alex realized that he had lost a lot of body mass and had a mostly weaker Blood Essence. Thankfully, everything else that had gone wrong had either been healed by his physique or by the many pills he had eaten along the way.

\'Body mass I can deal with immediately, but the Blood Essence will take some time to heal on its own,\' Alex thought. He couldn\'t help but wonder if it was even a good idea to try to improve his blood aura just yet.

\'If I try to improve my blood aura, I will have to deal with Blood Essence first, and will end up wasting the blood aura,\' Alex thought. It was better to make use of it later. For now, he could do something else.

Alex entered his soul space and looked at the vastly wide floating collection of blood-red water that constantly moved around but never escaped from its own mass. It was nearly 2 kilometers in diameter and had more water than most lakes did on their own.

Inside the water, various body parts of both beasts and humans were floating around. Most of them were cut into perfect pieces by him, but a lot of them were also in irregular pieces as they were being consumed by the beasts themselves.

Alex started the tedious job of going through the beasts and locating the Beast Core to pull it out for his use. It was a struggle at first. Alex wasn\'t aware of where each beast\'s core would be.

But as he went through it, he got faster and faster, and by the end of it all, he managed to bring out all the cores from the beasts with none remaining. Alex looked at the pile of cores in surprise.

There were exactly 266 beast cores there, and the most surprising thing of all was that they were all from very strong beasts.

The weakest core there was from a beast in the Saint Core realm, but the majority of the beasts that dared surface during his battle with the soldiers had been either in the Saint Soul realm or the Saint Transformation realm.

Alex quickly moved over the blood and beasts he had gathered in his Storage ring as well and started counting through all that he had.

Together, he now had 133 beast cores from beasts with Saint Core realm or weaker. He had 112 cores from beasts with the Saint Soul realm. And he had exactly 46 cores from beasts with Saint Transformation realm.

That was an amount Alex hadn\'t ever expected to gather when he had first decided to go to the ocean to train himself. He hadn\'t even fulfilled his original purpose for going to the ocean and now he had so much beast core and blood that he could only wonder just how strong he was going to be in the upcoming days.

Once Alex separated all the cores, he then moved to separate the corpse parts from the bloodied water. The parts that were taken out from the water were put into two piles.

One pile was for parts that would be useful when it came to alchemy, formations, artifacts, or other constructs. And the other one was for body parts that would not be useful to make anything.

Once Alex finished making the two piles, he started transporting the large mass of corpses toward the World Tree and the Nine Yang Divine Tree. He hadn\'t had the chance to feed the trees anything good for a long time, and they would most definitely happily absorb everything he gave them.

Eating nothing but the flesh and bones of strong beasts and humans would do them very good as well.

Feeding the plants was just leaving the body parts by their roots. The trees would do their job themselves.

Alex took a short time to deal with the rest of the issues in his Soul Space and then finally left it with the Blood God\'s Manual following him out.

"Godslayer, do you want to start now, or should we wait?" Alex asked the sword spirit in his mind.

"Give it to me. I\'ve been ready for a few days now."

The spirit floated in Alex\'s spiritual sea, surrounded by a nearly vile tar-like black substance that surrounded it, along with a small dark cloud that hovered around it. Godslayer\'s real body, the crystalline sphere was no longer visible to anyone who would look for it at all.

"Okay, I\'ll do it right now."

Alex reached into the Blood God\'s Manual with his spiritual sense and used his Dao of Death Aura to control an amount of Death Aura inside of there. He formed a thin line with the aura and slowly dragged it toward his Spiritual Sea.

Opening his Sea to the aura, he let the Death Aura fly into his mental space where he let go of the control.

Godslayer immediately assumed control of all the Death Aura that Alex poured into the Spiritual sea. He started taking it toward himself, adding it to the Darkness Aura that had taken the form of the tar-like substance.

Death Aura became a smoky mixture with the dark clouds, turning the cloud more opaque while also turning into a viscous goo of dark liquid surrounding Godslayer\'s body.

Godslayer continued taking in everything Alex gave adding it to the pile while continuously taking measure of what he was gathering. Sometime later, he realized that he was nearing equilibrium between the two aura.

"You\'ll have to stop soon," Godslayer notified.

Alex nodded. A minute later, he stopped pulling out the Death Aura under Godslayer\'s command and put away the book. There was still quite a lot of Death Aura remaining in the book. He had not even taken out a third of the total amount, but that seemed to be enough for Godslayer.

"You will start absorbing them now?" Alex asked.

"In a minute," Godslayer said. "I need to make some preparations first."

He did something with the two Aura, mixing them to the point that they emulsified together. Alex arrived inside the Spiritual sea and looked at what Godslayer was doing.

The ball of black mass that was Godslayer was surprisingly small, but that was only because most of the Darkness and Death aura had concentrated in his vicinity.

"Once you absorb it all, you will improve permanently, right?" Alex asked the Sword spirit.

"I will," Godslayer said excitedly. "So long as you don\'t let your body destroy me again, I will remain at that strength and won\'t drop down."

Alex shook his head while remembering the first time he had met Godslayer. The sword spirit\'s aura covered the entire sky at that time. Compared to how small that cloud was right now, Alex could only imagine how strong the Sword spirit had been.

The only reason he had even lost was because he had entered his body.

"Tell me, are we going to have to find Darkness aura and Death aura each time you need to improve yourself?" Alex asked the Sword Spirit. "Don\'t you have another method of improving?"

"As a sword spirit? I have no choice but to do just that," Godslayer said. "The only way for me to grow normally would be to find my body first."

"Your body?" Alex asked, thinking for a moment. "You were in that other sword when I found you, but that is not your body, is it? Where is your real body?"

"I don\'t know," Godslayer answered. "Since I was put in the Sky God\'s treasury, it might be in there. It might not be. I have no way of telling."

"Hmm…" Alex thought for a bit. "When we are hopefully done with everything here and ready to break through to the Immortal realm, senior Yang will come with us to the other realm. Do you think he will accept it if I say I want to visit the Sky God\'s Palace?"

Godslayer remained silent for a while before asking. "And do what there?" he asked. "Ask the Sky God to give you my body back? Or do you plan on stealing it?"

"Umm…"

"Do you know what will be the first thing that will happen there if you go?" Godslayer asked. "That woman will put you in a secluded room and look into your Soul Space and Spiritual sea. Guess what she will see when she does that?"

Alex shrank into his body when he thought of what would happen to him under those circumstances. Having Godslayer and a giant Space Stone in his spiritual sea, and having the two trees in his Soul Space would be a bad thing to show the Sky God as the first thing.

"I guess we shouldn\'t do that," Alex said sheepishly.

"Alright, now give me space," Godslayer said, having perfectly mixed the two auras. "I\'m going to start absorbing them."

"Do you mind moving to the top of the silver mountain?" Alex asked. "I plan on eating a lot of Beast cores so there will be many violent Beast spirits coming into my mind soon. I would not want to bother you with them."

"Alright," Godslayer answered. "I\'ll let you know when I\'m done with it. Don\'t get into any problem until then."
