Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Alex looked at the pill Momo had made, a powder blue pill with some specks of brown in it.

"Is this the new pill you said you were making?" Alex asked her.

"Yes," Momo said. "At least, I tried to make it. I don't know if it works or not."

"Do you want me to check?" Alex asked.

"Yes, please," Momo said with a pleading look.

Alex took the pill from her hand and looked at it for a while. Then, he reached out toward Momo, who handed over a small vial.

The vial contained water that had been contaminated with her Qi to become poisonous. The pill she had made was an antidote pill that was supposed to work against the poison.

There were many pills that worked against her poison right now, but the way they worked was by solving all problems that could exist instead of just the one that did. As such, Alex had given her this method to train to become better at making new pills. She was to continuously make new types of pills that could exactly fight her type of poison without doing anything else.

It taught her what she needed to be better at making new pills and knowing beforehand what she was going to make.

Alex sent both the vial and pill into his Soul Space where he would have one of the many pill swines that was there test it. Momo watched Alex with his eyes closed as he was focusing on doing something. She wasn't exactly sure what Alex was doing. The first few times they had tested these pills, they had found places where pill swines existed.

But afterward, Alex had decided that they no longer needed to go there. He could just find out the answer by doing whatever it was he was doing. She didn't yet know that there was an entire secret realm hidden within Alex's Soul Space.

Alex opened his eyes and shook his head. "It didn't work,' he said. "It was close, but you failed."

Momo felt a little disappointed. How did I fail, master?" she asked.

Alex took a moment to look through Momo and smiled. "There is no poison leaking from you. You have a very good control over it. That's good," he said. "But bring a bit of it out for now."

Momo nodded and used her Qi to let Alex sense the poison. After a decade of training, she had reached a point in her control where she could choose whether to have poison in what she used or not. For now, she used poison with her Qi.

Alex sensed the Qi and understood the poison as best as he could. He wasn't the best when it came to poison, but as an Alchemist, he was far better than almost all other Immortals. "Give me the recipe for the pill you just made."

Momo handed over the talisman she had prepared. She had written down the recipe before she had started making the pill.

Alex read through the recipe and quickly formed the pill in his mind after understanding the ingredients and the process through which they would create a new pill. In his mind, he could understand what sort of pill this would come to be.

"I see. You failed to understand your own poison," Alex said.

Momo was taken aback. "I did?" she asked.

Alex nodded. "Did you not realize that your poison has a spiritual aspect to it as well? It poisons the body mostly, but it also affects the mind."

"Huh? I do?" Momo asked looking down at herself to see if she had missed. It was after a very careful test that she realized she did.

"Oh my god! How did I miss it?" Momo shouted in a start. She hadn't realized there was something like that. "But it's so weak."

"It's weak to you. You have an awakened Spiritual sea. Most others don't have that," Alex said. "So what is weak to you is still strong for someone else. If we were to remove the spiritual poison from the equation, though, you made a pretty good pill." RΆɴо𝔟Еs̈

"I see," Momo said. "I will try not to make that mistake again then. Ughh… I will need to start from scratch with new ingredients."

Alex nodded. "If it was easy, everyone would be doing this," he said. "You've just got to keep on trying."

Momo nodded. "I'll do that," she said.

"Rest for now. Don't push yourself. Your progress is still very much on track. You don't have to outdo yourself each time."

Momo nodded, but it was impossible to say if she wouldn't take this to heart. "Oh, and have Moss train a little better. He still needs to be better at keeping back his poison from secreting from his body unnecessarily. His body can only make so much poison and you need most of it to train."

"I'll do that too, Master," Momo said.

"Cultivate for now and rest," Alex said as he stood up. "Once you are done, I will take you somewhere to watch something interesting."

Momo looked up with a curious look. "Watch what?" she asked.

"You'll find out soon enough," Alex said and left the room with a very curious Momo.

He walked by Pearl's room and knocked on the door. A while later the door opened and Alex walked in on a massive beast Pearl whose body glowed golden while he cultivated.

It wasn't so good to disturb him while he was cultivating, but Alex didn't have much choice as he needed to let him know before he started another cultivation cycle.

Pearl slowly opened his eyes and looked at Alex. "Did you need something, brother?" he asked.

"Not something," Alex said. "Just a small piece of news. Don't start your next round of cultivation after you are done with this one."

Pearl looked confused. "Why?" he asked.

"Whisker will be out soon," he said.

Pearl's eyes slowly widened upon hearing that. "That means…"

Alex nodded. "He will be breaking through to Immortality now."
