Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy-Novel

Alex walked back hwith all 5 sets of ingredients for the one specific pill recipe that he took from Liao Xumei.

Persuading her had been slightly more difficult than he had initially imagined, but after making an oath to give her the ring artifact in return, the girl had finally decided to accept his deal.

With 5 ingredients, he was to return 3 pills that were 70% or higher in harmony.

Alex hadn't yet made an Immortal Pill before, but he had no doubt he would easily make that pill.

Tai Guidao met up with him on the way as he arrived back home. The man was turning somewhat colder each day as his physique was getting stronger, but compared to all the others he had made, this was still the person with the most emotion in the sect.

Tai Guidao made ssmall talk, mostly speaking about their missions and how good their physique was coming along. He was also quite proud of managing to survive a higher-grade poison than the one he had consumed last time.

Cthe next Poison Assembly, he was certain he would rank in the top 5000 at least. By the 3rd Poison Assembly when they changed their place of stay, Alex was all but certain this man would enter the top 4000.

As for him, he was looking to enter the Top 2000 and becan Inner Sect disciple.

After finishing up their conversation, Alex made his way to his room where he set up the concealment formation and brought out Memory as he prepared to make spills.

Whisker and Pearl arrived at the side, free to do what they wanted to do. Pearl chose to cultivate, while Whisker chose to watch Alex make the pill.

Alex began explaining the recipe to Whisker.

"It's a very specific antidote pill for a poison created by Silver Snake Vine. It has one part Red Gibbous flower stem, one part honey from the silver-tongued bee, one part…"

Whisker listened to every word with great attention, learning everything in one go. Once Alex was finished teaching Whisker, he closed his eyes and went through the recipe once to visualize how everything worked in his mind.

Thankfully, knowing the recipe, he was able to quickly form a simulation of making the pill in his mind, seeing how the energy would react and whatnot.

Any ingredient that was a plant needed him to not look for any information. Any ingredient that was not plant-based, he brought it out and learned it, studying it in second.

What mattered for the pill was first and foremost the energy of the ingredients. With his Dao of Seven-Elemental Interaction, Alex could easily tell what type of energy was available in an ingredient.

After learning about the energy interaction, Alex's second job was to check if the pill recipe was any good at all. If it was not a perfect recipe, then he had to do whatever he could to improve it.

Alex had promised 3 pills to the senior just to get started on making Immortal pills. Unfortunately, of the 5 sets of ingredients he had asked for, he would have to spend one set on just understanding the materials of the ingredients.

He remembered the last the had done something like this, starting all the way from the bottom; he had been in the Northern Continent at the time.

'This isstarting from the bottom once again,' Alex thought. He did not hesitate to spend the one set of ingredients to learn about them.

Alex cut up the ingredients into multiple pieces, learning what shape they made at what temperature, and at what speed. He didn't need to do it many times, only three or four times at best.

Then, he could use a knowledge skill given to him by the Alchemy God to map out all the different shapes and structures the powder of the ingredient would form at different temperatures, different rotational speeds, and directions.

After hours of work, Alex finally completed figuring out everything he needed to before starting to make the pill. Once he had all the information, he closed his eyes once again to visualize the combination of powder that would be needed to reach 100%.

Having done this thousands and thousands of times by now, Alex could immediately see patterns on how they would fit together, and if that structure could house all of the energy.

Once Alex narrowed down the pill to one simple structure, he quickly wrote down a new recipe that could be used instead of the other one. Using the new recipe, Alex was ready to make pills.

Alex went once over the rest of the ingredients to check their quality, and they were quite good. They weren't enough to get over 90%, but they could certainly reach 85% even without needing Alex's SuprElemental Accord technique.

Not to mention, Alex didn't want to reach that high with his pill. He wasn't to make things easy for himself, but he didn't want to stand out very much either.

What he needed was a good 70% to 75% harmony pill. And so, he began making the pill with that in mind.

Alex began making the pill by putting it in the Red Gibbous flower step and moving it around. As he did, he noticed the emergence of quite a strong bit of energy. He was somewhat taken aback, but not enough to cause any problem.

He was simply surprised at how strong the energy in the ingredient was. He had been in the Saint Realm for so long that every ingredient he used had been simple to control.

But since he was startingoutagain, he was feeling the strength of the ingredient he was working with. It was not just a matter of how strong the Qi was and how hard it was to control it. There was also a spiritual aspect to the whole thing, needing Alex to be mentally stronger when making these pills.

Since he was only startingout, it was bound to be difficult.

Still, Alex had no doubt he would face no problem making this pill. He immediately completed converting the first ingredient into powder and poured in the second one.

Immortal ingredients had caused Alex to feel ssense of alienation when taking the pill, but as he went on, he realized that there was nothing foreign about this at all.

The energy was stronger, sure, but the pill was still the same. He was making a pill, and that was the easiest thing he knew how to do.

Alex reached the final phase of the pill where all that was left was to form the pill itself. He had the Vortex of Perfection technique waiting to be employed, butso as tonot overdo it, he instead used the Profound Revolution of Myriad Combination technique to form the pill.

This technique was similar to Vortex of Perfection, except Alex had to be more manual about the whole process, which caused him to make quite more mistakes.

That was what he wanted in the first place.

And yet despite those mistakes, when Alex pulled out the pill, he couldn't help but be happy when looking at it.

The pill he had made had cto have a Harmony of 76%.
