Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 2103  Fain Immortal Peach Lily

Alex felt a sense of completion once all the oaths were said and the conditions were accepted. It was all set now. He was going to be a participant in the greatest Alchemy tournament in recent history.

Silvermist was very much excited at getting Alex to become his champion as well. "From now until the end of the tournament, and possibly even further if you wish to, I will become your master."

Alex took in a deep breath and nodded. He gave a deep bow and said in the most respectful voice he could muster, "Disciple Dawnblade greets Master."

Silvermist couldn't help but put on a genuine smile when hearing Alex greet him that way. "Are you sure you wish to refer to me as a master? This is a temporary arrangement after all. I wouldn't mind if you were to just call me a senior."

Alex shook his head. "You have decided to teach me in the ways of Alchemy, Master. Even if you were to end up teaching me a single thing, it would mean that you have taught me something and are thus my master. I have used this word only once before for someone who taught me Alchemy. You are the second person, and most likely the last. Please do not reject this disciple's wish."

Silvermist patted Alex on the shoulders. "I will be more than happy to take you in as my proper disciple."

Alex looked up finally, giving a soft smile.

"Now that it is done, we should leave," Grimsight said. "When should I start teaching your White Tiger?"

"Anytime you are free," Alex said. "How long will you be free?" "We have nothing else to do now that we have found you," Silvermist said. "So, until it is time to leave this world, we will have nothing else to do."

"Oh… did you already plan to delay?" Alex asked. "I was going to ask you to delay myself. I have a few things to complete here."

"We just need to stay around until Snowleaf comes back from the Three Jewel world. He should have left by now, but there are two realms between here and there, so he should take no more than 20 years. If he takes more than 20 years, we leave him."

"So I have 20 years?" Alex asked. That should be plenty of time to get at least 2 tickets, right?

If he went over to Medicine World, he would need one ticket to go to the Divine Thunderforge Realm, and then to the Sky God's Palace.

"Maybe less, but definitely not more," Silvermist said. "Truth be told, I should be starting to teach you right away, but what you need more than my teaching right now is a strong cultivation base." "I know you have a high battle power. Your Qi is strong, but the minimum you will need to be able to control all types of Immortal ingredient is at least the latter half of the Immortal Origin realm, if not the Immortal Transcendent realm itself."

"Getting there in 20 years is difficult, but… I have a few pills that can help you. It will certainly improve your cultivation speed. In 70 years' time, you should be close to reaching the level needed."

Alex thought for a moment and nodded. "I would appreciate the aid, master."

He doubted he was going to use the pills right away. After all, his cultivation speed was already quick enough. But any pill he did receive from Silvermist would be pills with 9 Pill Veins, which would be very important to him for cultivation down the line. Considering that it would take him reaching the latter realms of the Immortal Transcendent realms to even begin to make pills with 9 Pill veins, it was a much better choice to keep those with him for now.

Silvermist brought out 3 different pills, each of the same type. They were cultivation pills and as expected, they were all pills with 9 Pill veins. He handed those over to Alex.

"These are all I have at the moment," Silvermist said. "I will need to make some more, but good ingredients in this world are a little hard to come by from what I hear. They are very expensive as well. Cultivate what you can for now. I will make you more pills once we arrive at the Medicine World in a few decades."

"These are more than enough, Master," Alex said. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Silvermist nodded. His eyebrows narrowed for a moment and brought out a wooden box. It was a simple-looking but well-polished wooden box, and Alex could smell a sort of aroma coming from the box that was hard to describe. He had never smelled something like this before.

Silvermist kept the box in his hand for a while, thinking. Grimsight seemed to recognize the box as well and looked at Silvermist.

"Are you sure it is wise to give it to him this early?" he asked. "Wouldn't it be better to give it to him right before the tournament?" Silvermist gave those words some consideration and nodded. "Yeah, it is better to give it to him later down the line. I suppose with his speed, he won't get to use two at all, so it doesn't make sense to give it to him right now."

Alex couldn't help but get curious at this point. "Master? What is that?" he asked.

Silvermist mulled over whether to let Alex see what it was or not and decided there was nothing wrong with showing it to him. He opened the box and revealed a pink 5-petaled flower that slowly transitioned to white on the inside. The petals of the flower hung outward with the stamen sticking out from the center with fuzzy yellow tips.

Alex was… confused. He knew the name of the flower he was looking at but realized that it was no Alchemy material at all. The only time something like this happened to him was when he saw one of the Demonic plants, but for some reason, he could tell this was clearly not it.

"What is this?" he asked.

"We call it the Miracle Ascendance Lily," Silvermist said. "Its true name is not remembered anymore as it is said that this flower went extinct at one point and took generations to come back from extinction."

Alex knew the name. It was called a Fain Immortal Peach Lily. The name seemed to have changed over time, but since Alex's information came from deep in the past, it had remained much longer than anything else.

"What does it do?" he asked. The name was one thing he knew, but its usage completely eluded him.

"It's a simple but hard-to-find flower. When a person in the Immortal Ascendant realm cultivates with this flower, within 5 days, they break through to the next realm," he said.

Alex's eyes widened slightly. "I'm sorry. It can help me break through?" "Yes," Silvermist said.

"Even if I'm nowhere close to bottleneck?" Alex asked again.

"You could have broken through just hours ago, and if you use this immediately afterward, you'll still break through once again," Silvermist said. "It's a treasure among the Immortal Ascendant cultivators for a reason."
