Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 1976  To the Training Center

It appeared different from Memory and wasn\'t blood forged, but it was made from the same material, so it was a great cauldron in the end anyway.

There were 3 ingredients inside the cauldron, each of which had already turned into powder. It was time for the next ingredient to be put in.

Fang Yuxie took out 3 small leaves and put them into the cauldron, quickly controlling it with her Qi.

Alex did nothing. He wasn\'t here to make pills at all. He was simply here to guide. At some point during the first 3 months of running the shop, after seeing even a rat make such good pills, she had decided that she wanted to learn how to make pills as well.

So, during the downtime, Alex had begun teaching her. She was still a novice, but as an Immortal cultivator, she picked things up rather quickly.

She still had to learn and practice for ages, but at least she had made some progress.

The pill Fang Yuxie was making was a True pill, one that was regularly bought in their shop. It was an easy pill to make, so to test her progress, Alex decided to use that pill.

Fang Yuxie frowned a little as she moved her hands, and Alex noticed the mistake she made. In trying to move around the leaves, she had loosened her Qi around the powder at the bottom and had nearly burned it. In trying to rectify that, she had slowed down the rotation of the leaves instead.

Alex didn\'t say anything. He didn\'t have to since she had noticed it herself.

She made various other mistakes, mostly related to her control of fire. It appeared that she didn\'t have a Superior Fire spiritual root, so she struggled with controlling it a bit.

Alex could maybe help her there, but he didn\'t know where he could get a good fire treasure. He wasn\'t going to spend the money on her anyway. She would have to deal with it on her own.

The best he could do was give her the technique to use it.

Fang Yuxie focused all of her attention on the end, as all of the ingredients had turned into powder, and then finally converted it all into a pill using the Profound Revolutions of Myriad Combinations technique.

Alex didn\'t want to give her the better technique just yet.

Fang Yuxie pulled out the pill and let it drop onto the formation next to her to test its strength.

"Urgh!" she slumped onto the floor with clear annoyance in her face. "How am I still making so many mistakes? It\'s already been 5 months since I started."

Alex smiled. "Don\'t beat yourself over it. You\'ve spent most of the time learning about the ingredients and getting familiar with the recipes. Just because you know them doesn\'t mean that you\'ll be able to use them as easily. Alchemy takes time, so give it some."

He had also taught her about the structures and combinations that were involved in making a pill, and that took a long time to learn. He had given her more to learn at the start so that she would have an easier time in the future. Fang Yuxie didn\'t say anything and closed her eyes.

Alex waited for her to go through everything she did in her mind and figure out where she went wrong and what she could do to rectify that. After 5 minutes, she got back up and brought out another set of ingredients.

"I\'m going to try again."

"Good," Alex said and stood up. "I\'m leaving."

"Where are you going?" she asked, pausing to look at him.

"The training tower," Alex said.

"Training Tower? For what?" Fang Yuxie asked. "Did you break through? I can\'t feel it."

"I haven\'t broken through yet, but I\'m close. I can feel it. I just want to know how strong I am right now. Thing is, I haven\'t been able to test my strength since I became an Immortal."

"Oh! Okay, good luck."

Fang Yuxie went back to focusing on making more pills.

Alex left Whisker behind to help her in case she made some serious mistakes. Not that he had to worry about it that much since she was only making True pills. Even if the energy inside destabilized somehow, it wouldn\'t destroy the cauldron at all.

The sky was still dark with only one of the moons visible in the night sky. It was the pale silver one that he could see from his home world. The other one tended to be all around the world and was most likely hidden beneath the horizon at this point.

If he searched for it during the day, he was bound it find it right there in the sky.

Despite being nighttime, the city didn\'t sleep. The city itself was the size of a country, with billions of people living inside of it, most of whom were high-ranking cultivators, so it couldn\'t sleep.

There were multiple training centers where anyone below the Divine realm could train comfortably. The closest one of them was just a few minute\'s flight away from Alex.

Alex arrived not long after at the golden tower that was nearly 40 stories tall. It was a massive traditional-style tower that spanned hundreds of meters on all sides.

People came in and out of the tower frequently, and so Alex walked in as well.

There were multiple lines of people waiting to get themselves a room to train in and Alex got into one of those lines. It took a few minutes for his turn to come up and in that time he quickly learned what he needed to know about the tower based on the conversations up front.

There were in total 36 stories in the tower that were dedicated to training rooms. Each one of the rooms was separated for every realm of a cultivator was within the Immortal realm.

And depending on their cultivation realm, one could not get a room underneath that floor.

For example, a person in Immortal Origin 8th realm had to get a room that was in or above Floor 17.

They also had to pay for the amount they would be spending inside the room prior to entering, so one had to know how long they would be staying, or pay an extra fee if they ended up overstaying.

When Alex finally arrived at the front, he saw a small board on the counter that he hadn\'t seen when people were in front of him. It had a simple but striking sentence written on it.

\'Please choose your training room with consideration to your Battle Power.\'

Alex wondered how many times someone had ended up wrecking a room that wasn\'t up to their level for them to have put it at the front. Also, how common was it for people to have a high Battle Power in the Immortal realm?

"Floor 12 or above, please," Alex said. "For 6 hours."
