Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

"Here is the room," the woman said. "It is made according to my request, so there may be things you won\'t like in there. Please let me know if such a thing does happen."

"I will," Alex said and looked around. The formations on the floor were simple Saint rank formations and not immortal rank formations as he had hoped from them, which disappointed Alex a little.

\'I suppose it would be stupid to make an immortal rank formation since it won\'t be able to run on Saint Qi,\' he thought.

"Do you need a cauldron, young man?" the woman asked.

"No, It\'s alright. I have my own," Alex said and looked around the room to see what he could immediately figure out.

"You have the flame control formation there, the elemental control formation there. You can improve your ingredients over there on that formation. You can even get that formation\'s aid in helping take automatic control if you feel like taking a break, although I advise not using it. It usually leads to the pills turning out bad," the woman explained.

"Thank you, senior, but I won\'t be needing any of these things. I will be fine as long as I just have the fire," Alex said.

"Oh… okay," the woman said. "Here are the ingredients just like you said. I\'ll be back later to check on your progress."

"Thank you," Alex said and sent her away.

He closed the door and sat in front of the formation that created fire. That was the only one he was going to need after all. Still, he appreciated the rest of the formations that were set there.

\'I can see how they are useful to the average alchemy enthusiast,\' he thought. He activated the formation for fire and pulled out Memory from his storage ring.

"Finally, I will get to make some real pills with you," Alex said and pulled out the ingredients.

There were 3 types of pills that had been requested of him. They were pills that improved one\'s cultivation speed, pills that healed a person, and pills that got rid of poisons.

These were the only 3 types of pills that the White Tiger had requested of him. While only 3 types of pills, the sheer number that was requested of him was going to take Alex at least a week to finish. And that was if he didn\'t lose any energy.

If he was being realistic, it was going to take him about 10 days in total.

He started separating the ingredients according to the recipes, and once everything was done, he finally started.

Liz had already left with another wife of Bai Jingshen to be taken to where Hao  Ya was currently at. She was going to help with the Teleportation formation that was some distance outside of the palace.

She had been there last time too and was going there once again today.

Helen stayed with Scarlet, talking with her about various things that she wanted to know about.

Bai Jingshen talked with them as well as he had nothing to do at the time. Inwardly, he was very worried about Pearl and couldn\'t focus on anything else. However, he also knew that there was nothing he could do for Pearl right now.

As a result, he was stuck between knowing there was nothing he could do and wanting to do nothing else.

"How good is your alchemy skill, young lady?" Bai Jingshen asked. "Can you help your son?"

"I wouldn\'t say it\'s great," Helen said honestly. "I\'m only a new Saint and I haven\'t had much experience making pills, so I don\'t think I can compare to my son. At the very least, I won\'t be of much help to him."

"Hmm, I thought you could help him so he can leave early," Bai Jingshen said. "I would make Beihan make the pills, but she can\'t use Immortal Qi in this world, or she will be in trouble too."

"How good are your concubine\'s alchemy skills?" Scarlet asked. "Is it as good as Alex\'s?"

"I don\'t know his skill just yet, but my wife can make Immortal-grade pills easily. Making pills with 80% to 90% harmony is something she does on a daily basis actually," Bai Jingshen said proudly. "She\'s not comparable to actual alchemists, but compared to those of this world, she\'s infinitely better."

Scarlet couldn\'t hold in the chuckle. "I can see where you are coming from," she said. "But I\'m afraid you are underestimating the alchemists of this world a little too much. It seems you forgot that most of them in this world have knowledge that can only be found in the Immortal realms."

"Hmm, you\'re right," Bai Jingshen said. "I did not consider that. Are you saying the young man Alex can reach the same level in pill-making as my concubine?" Bai Jingshen asked.

"Reach the same level as your wife?" Scarlet scoffed at those words. "Alex can—"

Scarlet\'s words paused in her mouth as she looked up. Bai Jingshen was already looking up and a few of his wives and concubine also noticed it around the same time.

Helen was confused as to what they were looking at. She looked up at the sky, but there was nothing there at all.

However, a moment later, as if out of nowhere, the thick black cloud covered the entire sky with lightning scattering throughout.

Bai Jingshen got a little alert immediately, surprised to see Heavenly Judgment appear out of nowhere. "What\'s going on? Why is Heavenly Judgment—"He paused for a second when he realized that the strength of the lightning in the sky was nowhere close to being as strong as Heavenly Judgment lightning.

"No, wait. Is that…?"

"Pill clouds," Scarlet explained. "The young man you sent inside to make pills for you can create pill clouds."

"But… how?" Bai Jingshen was truly surprised. "Don\'t you need extremely good ingredients to create Pill clouds?"

Scarlet shrugged. "Don\'t ask me. I don\'t know how he does things," she said.

The first lightning strike struck down from heaven and Bai Jingshen clearly saw it being blocked by Alex inside the alchemy room.

Another two lightning strikes fell from the sky as well and were easily blocked by Alex.

"3 pills veins," Luo Beihan spoke. As an alchemist of some practice, she knew how difficult it was to reach where Alex had, not to mention continue growing from there.

"He\'s not even halfway through the Saint realm and he can make pills with pill veins, huh?" she couldn\'t help but think in surprise.

2 more lightning strikes fell from the sky and only then did the cloud disappear. Alex had put a stop to the pill cloud at that point, stopping the lightning as well.

Bai Jingshen looked at the dissipating clouds and couldn\'t help but put on an excited smile. "I made the right choice asking him to make pills for us," he said softly. "I can only imagine the quality pills he will continue to produce."
