Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 2247  Visiting Jai Heiyun

After exchanging some oaths to not walk out on their bets or to cheat in the single battle, Alex decided that he was okay with Pearl fighting outside of the city.

It was early morning, so they decided to meet at the eastern gates an hour before the sun went down. After they decided as much, they went their own way.

"Brother," Pearl said slowly. "Do you think I can win against him/" "Of course," Alex said. "I trust you."

"But… what is that man\'s Battle Power is quite high? I will be in trouble," Pearl said.

Alex nodded. "I took that into account. But you see Pearl, I\'ve begun to understand a bit more about Battle Power. It\'s not something so abstract that one could hide from another person. Unless the person\'s circumstances are extreme like my own were before I cultivated, people with Battle Power will exceed in their cultivation very quickly."

"Even with a relatively poor cultivation technique, they will very quickly improve their cultivation base, so they usually end up coming out the better faster than anyone else. Because of this precisely, they also look relatively younger than others."

"So, I am more than certain that the man you will be fighting does not have much Battle Power," Alex said. "Even if he does, you still have some tricks up your sleeve."

Pearl thought for a moment and nodded. "I suppose." "Let\'s go in so you can rest for now. You must be tired from all the battles," Alex said, taking Pearl back into the courtyard.

Afterward, Alex went to check on Whisker and Momo, who were doing more than good enough on their own. "If I can get enough spirit stones today, we should be able to make our way to the other continent today, so get ready for that."

The two nodded.

Once he had seen the two, Alex left the courtyard to go see how much he could sell the pills this time around. He went to a different alchemy store now, one seems just as good as the last one, if not better.

He did not want to sell the pills in the same place as he did not want people to notice that he was bringing in more pills with pill veins than anyone else. Not that he knew if that was correct. He had been here for a while and pill clouds seemed to form on the daily.

There were a lot of talented alchemists in the city.

Alex quickly sold the pills, while looking for ingredients he was looking for. Once again, he just didn\'t find any there at all. He even asked why there were no ingredients this time around and the man who helped him gave some vague answer about there being too many demands and too few in supply.

He didn\'t have an exact reason behind that though.

Alex left the store a few minutes later, now over 150 thousand Immortal spirit stones richer. Since he did not buy anything at all, with what he had already earned, he could go to the other continent. He only needed to buy tickets for just the two of them after all. Pearl and Whisker could stay in their Beast Space.

Alex didn\'t immediately return to the courtyard and instead wandered around the town until he finally found the place he was looking for. The place where Jai Heiyun was staying.

She was quickly notified of Alex\'s arrival and walked out to meet him. "You— I mean, brother Dawnblade, you\'re here. You took a while."

"I had some work," Alex said, walking in. The place where Jai Heiyun was staying was quite small compared to his courtyard and frankly terrible.

There was little protection here and way too many distractions to be making pills or teaching someone. Because of the amount of people living here, the Qi was also quite little for everyone to properly cultivate. She needed a much better place.

Alex went in and found a young man sitting in a room with some talismans, reading something. He was a blond-haired young man no older than his disciple.

He didn\'t get up to greet him or anything, and just stayed there watching. Alex didn\'t think particularly much about it and walked away. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"How much have you been teaching him?" Alex asked. "His cultivation base is still only in the Muscle-Tempering realm."

"I\'m doing what I can, but it is taking more time than I thought it would," Jai Heiyun said. "I can\'t focus on him properly since I have to focus on myself first, you know. I need to get out of this place as soon as I can, and that is the thing I am prioritizing for now."

Alex nodded, understanding that it was the thing everyone else would be focusing on as well. "And how is that coming along?" he asked.

"It\'s coming along fine," she said. "I can\'t make any good pills, so it sucks a little for me. Even pills I can make, I can\'t get them past the first pill vein so that also sucks."

"You did breakthrough a little too late for the tournament," Alex said. "Senior Firestar must\'ve forced you to break through very quickly instead of getting you to train alchemy."

"Well… I could do everything a Saint could, and I didn\'t have the cultivation needed to do what an Immortal could, so the only thing she could do was get me to break through. We hurried quite a bit and even then I\'m only so strong."

Alex nodded. Jai Heiyun took Alex to a room where they could sit down and talk properly.

"What happened to you if you didn\'t die?" Jai Heiyun asked. "How were you able to keep yourself hidden so well?"

"I had help from others," Alex said. "I had enough of being a king, but I also didn\'t want to let down others, so… I just made it appear like I died during my breakthrough and hid while preparing for my breakthrough."

"I was around a few times, but mostly I was training for over 50 years before I finally broke through to Immortality," Alex said. "And then I arrived at Myriad Spirit realm where my master found me."

"You must have been lucky to have met senior Silvermist," Jai Heiyun said. "I heard a lot about all the alchemy masters, but he and senior Wineweed were who my master talked about the most since they still talked with each other semi-frequently. Although, I don\'t know if it is you that is lucky or him. You are an incredible alchemist on your own after all."

"I am still lucky," Alex said. "I learned a lot by becoming his disciple."

Jai Heiyun smiled. She was about to say something else when she paused for a second and thought. "You became an Immortal 50 years after disappearing right?" she asked.

Alex nodded. "More or less. I remember training for about 50 years after my cousin and parents left"

"So… Were you already gone by the time they came to our world?" she asked.

"Who came?" Alex asked.

"The Immortals."
