Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy-Novel

Alex was a little confused as to what the senior was talking about.

"I have nothing to worry about? Why? Because the blood came from his mother?" he asked the senior.

"Not just that," the senior said. "It's a little more complicated, and unfortunately, I'm not the one that holds the entirety of the information either. So, I can't really explain it to you in detail as to what exactly it is I'm saying."

"However, if what I'm understanding is correct, the chances of your cat evolving have improved infinitely," the senior said. "In fact, it will be surprising if he fails after you have given him back his the White Tiger's blood that you have in you."

"Alright," Alex said. "I will do it. How do I take out the Blood Essence from within me?"

"Unfortunately, I do not know how," the senior said. "The Heavenly beasts remain outside of matter of Humans and Demons as their own separate species, so we don't interact as much. Because of that, we don't know much about them as they are very secretive."

Alex nodded. It was because of their neutrality that they were sent to rule over these lands in the first place.

"Then? What do I do?" Alex asked.

"The White Tigers should know what to do. When you go to the Western Continent, visit them. There should be someone there that should be able to do it," the senior said.

"I see," Alex said. 'Will the Puma be able to do it?' he hoped so.

"Thank you, senior," he said. "You have no idea how much this thought has tormented me for the past week and a half."

"Do you have anything else to ask?" the senior asked.

"Of course," Alex said and quickly thought up some more questions to ask the senior. "Right, I wanted to ask you about pill veins."

"Pill veins? What about it?" the senior asked.

"I can't seem to form pill clouds out of Common and True pills at all. Am I doing anything wrong? Or is that just how it is?" he asked.

"Oh, that's just how it is," the senior said. "You can't form pill veins with Common and True pills the same way you can't form pill souls with Saint and Immortal rank pills."

"There needs to be a level of energy in a pill to create such phenomenons, which only comes at various levels," the senior said.

"I see," Alex said. "What's a Pill Soul?"Follow current s on novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

"It's when your pill forms a soul," the senior said. "Kind of like an artifact spirit."

"Ah, I see," Alex said. "There's such a thing huh? I didn't know about it at all."

"Really? Even after you got the Alchemy god's book?" the senior asked.

"Well, the knowledge he has is blocked behind layers of intent that loosen up every time I break through to a major realm," Alex said. "Until then, I have to get my information from other sources, like you."

"I see," the senior said and brought out a book. "So that's why there was nothing remaining inside this book huh?"

Alex looked at the book curiously and was surprised when he saw the name. "Alchemy God's Knowledge? How do you have that book? Is this a copy?" he asked.

"No, this is the original," the senior said.

"Then… did I get a fake one? That can't be," Alex said.

"No, you got this book. When you decided to learn it, I had it sent back here," the senior said.

"Was it not destroyed when I learned it? It disappeared from my storage bag," Alex said with a shocked look.

"Oh, did you not realize what happened yet? Every time someone learned something using my system, I had the information sent directly into their minds, while the book itself was sent back to me so it could go back into the pile of books that I could send with others," the senior said.

"You teleported it back here?" Alex asked.

"Yes, the same way I teleported back the spirit stones everyone sold," the senior said.

"I see," Alex said. "How did it work though? How did you just teach someone something?"

"It required some creative thinking, but I managed to do it in the end," the senior said. "I had to make a formation that forced intent into someone's mind and I only gathered books with a sufficient amount of intent."

"Also, I don't know if you knew it or not, but not all books could be just learned, especially ones that were not related to battle," the senior said.

"So I learned that book because it had Intent in it?" Alex asked.

The senior nodded. "This book is useless now that the intent behind it is inside of you," he said as he tossed it to Alex. "Still, it's a good memento of the Alchemy God, so keep it safe with you."

Alex grabbed the book and looked at it. He quickly flipped through the book and found that what was written inside of it was simple information about Alchemy that even someone who knew nothing about it could figure out on his own after a few months of practice.

The book was never what was important at all. It was the person who had stored his intent into it.

"There are no other copies like this, right?" Alex asked.

"Uhh… I don't believe so," the senior said after thinking a bit.

"Then… does that mean that I now hold the highest level of information any alchemist  can hold in all the realms?" Alex asked. His heart started beating faster and faster as he realized that only he had the Alchemy God's teaching.

"Do you really think so?" the senior asked as he smiled a bit.

Alex felt a little embarrassed that his thinking had gone that way. "Am I mistaken, perhaps?" he asked.

"I won't say that you are wrong in thinking that you have a very high knowledge of Alchemy even though you have a lot of layers to still unlock in your mind," the senior said.

"However, you have to think of one thing exactly. The knowledge inside of you comes from the Alchemy god, but where did Alchemy God get his knowledge from?"

Alex paused for a bit as he realized that he hadn't even considered that question. In his mind, the Alchemy god just… existed. He never gave any thought to how he trained, or where he learned anything from.

"Where?" Alex asked slowly.

The senior smiled. "It is said that the Alchemy God came across 3 treasures when he was but a nobody. These treasures took him to the peak of Alchemy which no one had yet reached to this point," he said. "It was because of these treasures that he became what he was and wrote the book that you now hold."

"Oh, what are these treasures? where are they?" Alex asked curiously.

"We only know about one. After the Alchemy God's death, these three treasures disappeared, with no one knowing where any of it was."

"A few years after the war ended, however, someone appeared with the ability to make any pill they wanted and went on to become the current Alchemy god. After his ascension to Godhood, the current Alchemy God revealed that he held one of the three treasures."

Alex was beyond intrigued by this information. "What is the treasure?" he asked.

"The treasure is a book artifact known as The Book of Endless Recipes."
