Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy-Novel

Someone from the Eastern Continent returned a few months later to deliver the news that the Dragon Emperor would be happy to receive both the Alchemists and Alex 10 years later.

With the date set for 10 years in the future, Alex spent some of the time he had teaching the alchemists.

The rest still went into improving his techniques or trying to make the new pills.

He continued with both of them, along with his cultivation base, and before he knew it, another 6 years had passed.

The continent improved a lot in these past 6 years. In fact, since he had taken up the throne nearly a decade ago, the Southern Continent had found a newfound strength that wasn't there before at all.

With all the improvement he had done through his alchemy teachings, his royal alchemists were now easily making pills in the Immortal grade.

In fact, most of them easily crossed 80%, some even reaching 90%. However, they still found it hard to fill the final gap.

Alex had given them everything technique and knowledge he could, including the Pill-Splitting Qi, but these people were still not capable of overcoming the final hurdle.

The lack of Fire dao as well as the lack of perfect ingredients caused these people to not have the pills reach their full potential. However, even without them, they were still the best pills the world had ever seen.

The two best Alchemists, right behind Alex, were Harry and Jai Heiyun. Harry was still in the Alchemy Association, but Alex had called him over a few times to teach him along with his alchemists. As for Jai Heiyun, she was simply spectacular as an alchemist. If he were not here, she would definitely have been the best of the entire continent.

As such, Alex had decided to put her as the head of the Royal Alchemists, making her the Senior Royal Alchemist that everyone looked up to.

In the years after its setup, both the royal institutes and the royal army had more people joining them every year. By now, Alex didn't even know how many people there were in each of them.

He simply let the others bother about the statistics of it all.

The only thing he really cared about was that the institutes he had set up were now started to pay back for themselves, and were in fact even profiting in some cases.

Scarlet had improved a lot in the years as well. She had completely fixed her cultivation base as it no longer held signs of having rushed through. Alex's pills had helped her a lot, which she appreciated.

Starting last year, she had finally started focusing on improving her cultivation base, rather than just fixing it.

Very soon, she would break through to the Saint Transformation 2nd realm, and then the 3rd and more.

It was much slower than Alex had hoped her cultivation speed would be, but he stayed quiet and let her take her time.

Since she was the only one who could possibly take him all the way to the Western Continent, he did not wish to force her to speed up her cultivation speed at the risk of going through Qi Deviation.

Alex sometimes wondered if he should just ask for one of those ships from the Dragon Emperor that would help him ride throughout the world without being caught by any beasts in the ocean.

There wasn't much improvement in the years aside from that. He had reached Saint Foundation 8th realm, his father had reached Mind Tempering 8th realm, and Whisker was on the verge of becoming a Saint.

None of these results felt noteworthy in Alex's eyes. Especially his father's results were the worst ones.

Thankfully, Alex had forced his father to stop focusing on Qi cultivation for now and start to cultivate his body.

He would regularly train his body by getting beat up to the verge of death, and healing it with the Phoenix fire Scarlet specifically left for him. Using that, Graham had managed to reach all the way to the Saint Soul realm in terms of physical strength.Thᴇ link to the origin of this information rᴇsts in ɴovelFɪre.net - novelenglish.net . bin

Even Scarlet was surprised when she realized how strong Alex's father had become. There was no doubt in anyone's mind now that Graham had some special constitution that helped with body cultivation, but at the loss of Qi cultivation instead.

Alex stood in front of the stone pillar with closed eyes as he prepared his attack. A golden fist covered his own fist and he punched.

The fist landed on the stone pillar, and then the fist exploded into bright light.

Saint Core 9th realm.

Alex nodded to himself when he saw the level his Golden Fist Strike had reached in the past years. It was now comparable to an Immortal grade skill, although Alex didn't know how to improve it to Divine or even Celestial grade.

That probably took a lot of time, so he didn't even bother, and moved on to other techniques.

His sun now burned hot and bright, but he wasn't yet sure just how he could use it. He had created the sun to aid his Flickering Shadows technique, but it had been a while since he had to use that technique, as his normal teleportation Dao was much better.

'There will come a time when the sun will be helpful,' he believed in himself.

Alex had gone on to improve most of the techniques he had, while also improving the new ones he had learned.

The Twin Sword's Flight, Swirling Water Defense, and the Static Slash, along with almost all of the rest of his skills had improved to Immortal rank in terms of strength.

He had personally found different pathways, complicated ones, for each of his techniques, and had thus managed to make them stronger.

The time it took to do so got smaller and smaller with time as he gained more and more information from all the changes he had made to the technique.

He was now so experienced in improving techniques, that if he got a Common grade technique right now, he could make it to reach Immortal grade in a single month, maybe even less if the technique happens to do something similar to his other techniques.

He had learned so much already that there weren't many ways he could learn more about it, other than trying to turn the skills into Divine grade or higher. However, that would take a long time.

"God, how do I know so much and have yet to learn its dao?" Alex wondered. "Am I missing something?"

He had tried gaining the dao a couple of times, even trying to fall asleep to the scent of the Soul Elucidating Tulips, but it didn't work. The tulips were nowhere near as potent as the small pool of water at the top of Dao Mountain.

'I definitely need the pill,' Alex thought. Thankfully, he was very close to figuring out that too.

If everything went well, he was certain that he would be able to figure out the pill recipe within the month, if not within the week.

At that point, he would've done everything he had set out to do after he had become the King of the Southern Continent.
