Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy-Novel

Chapter 147: Faster

Alex was surprised to see that Pearl was stronger than he was before just by cultivating for a little time.

"Speaking of time, how long has it been?" Alex wondered as he looked at the time of the upper right. It was a few minutes past 12. "Sigh, I really have to suffer through that for over 2 hours huh. All so you can get stronger?" he felt a little agitated.

"Hmm… wait a second. It said I was being cultivated too. Could it be…." His eyes turned wide and hopeful as he quickly said, "Status,"

"Huh? Why are there no changes?" he wondered. The numbers in the status were all the same as before. "Did I go through all that pain for nothing?" he tried to see if there were anything else that was different about him in all the other settings, but he couldn't find any.

"I don't feel like doing anything anymore, but, what do I do then?" he couldn't think of anything.

So, reluctantly, he decided to go back to normal practice. "Alright, C'mon buddy, I need to train now, and I can't have you cultivating. That will be bad for me. Get inside," he said as let Pearl get inside his arm.

'Alright, back to training.' He started using all sorts of techniques and practicing with them. He deliberately chose to use the Iron Fist Punch more than anything, just to see how much stronger it was.

"I need to measure all of my attacks and see just how much stronger they are." He remembered his attack having a 4 realm higher attack damage, so he needed to check if that was still the case.

"Guess, I will have to visit the Training Hall while I go to the Library as well." He kept on practicing. He moved on to using the Elusive Heavenly Sword and Fluctuating Friction Dance as he practiced them too for a while.

"Hmm… Have I gotten faster now?" he couldn't tell if he was projecting what he wanted to see, or if he really was more faster and flexible.

After a while, Wen Cheng returned to see that Alex was still practicing. 'Oh, did he breakthrough again? He seems to be better now,' he thought as he walked up to Alex.

"Congratulations, for making it into the Organ tempering realm. It won't be much longer before you reach the True realms at all." Wen Cheng couldn't see Alex's cultivation due to his concealment technique and thought he had broken through between the time he fought with Meng Yun and right now.

"Organ tempering realm? I haven't broken through yet master." Alex said as he got a little confused.

"Huh? Aren't you at Organ Tempering 1st realm?" Wen Cheng asked as he got a little confused as well.

"No. I am still at Bone Tempering 9th Realm."

"What? How are you so much faster then?" Wen Cheng had seen him use his movement technique and it was must faster than when he used it against Meng Yun just a few hours ago.

Alex's eyes shined. "I am, aren't I? I thought I was fooling myself, but I really must be faster."

"Can you tell me how you are so much faster without breaking through?" Wen Cheng asked.

"Well, I think it's because of Pearl again," Alex said still remembering the horror he had to go through.

"Your cat? What does it have to do with you?" Wen Cheng said with confusion.

"I don't know how, but when Pearl cultivated after your left, I started feeling this pain all over my body. My entire body was covered with small cuts and tears all over the outside and inside, which also healed very fast. After I finally managed to tell Pearl to stop after 2 hours did my pain go away, and I was a little faster." Alex shivered at the thought of what he had gone through.

"Damage all over your body… and they healed? … No way," Wen Cheng's eyes widened as he heard what Alex had just said.

He immediately started speaking, "Withdraw all of your Qi into your meridian and hit my hand." He slowly put forth his palms to give Alex a target to attack.

"Huh?" Alex got confused.

"Do what I say. I want to check something," Wen Cheng started to get impatient.

"Ok, Master," Alex slowly reeled in all of his Qi. All the Qi in his skin, his muscles, bones, everywhere. They all reeled back into his meridians.

'Urghh… I feel so bloated right now.' He no longer gave any sign of what cultivation he was in right now. Similar to the Immortal Concealment Technique, he looked like a complete mortal right now.

The only difference was, with the Immortal Concealment technique, he hid the aura of his Qi and Cultivation base. While, by doing this, he was hiding the Qi and Cultivation base itself, basically leaving his body defenseless, as if he was a mortal.

"This feels so uncomfortable, Master," he said as he tried to keep it all in without leaking any Qi.

"Alright, since you are comparable to a mortal now, Hit my palm."

Alex didn't wait another second. He was already very uncomfortable and immediately decided to attack his master. With a single dash, he reached his master and delivered a perfect punch.

BAM

"Ow," Alex said as he started shaking his hand in pain. His master's palms were harder than he had imagined them to be. After the pain settled down, he looked up to see his master. Only to find his eyes wide and his jaw wide open.

'What's going on?' he wondered. He released his Qi back and asked his master, "I am done, right master? Why did you want me to do that?"

Wen Cheng returned back from his stupor. "Yes, yes. You are done. And I have confirmed what I had wanted to as well."

After a few seconds of silence, he finally spoke, "You have become a body cultivator."
