Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 2271  The 3 Names

Momo finally saw the beginning of the true scope of just how large the world really was, and it stunned her mind. It was still night, most of the light in the world gone, and yet, with just the moonlight, she could still see nearly everything.

All the glowing cities, all the dark forest, the large streams of rivers that flowed across the continent, the large shimmering ocean that filled most of the world.

Anything beyond that wasn't really visible. Just the haze of the atmosphere in between them made it impossible to see all. And yet, what she could see still stunned her completely.

"Don't forget to breathe," Alex reminded her. "The air here is very sparse, so you will need to breathe a lot. You don't have enough Qi to sustain your body without breathing."

Momo nodded and started taking in deep breaths. She still used up the Qi in her body, but it was slower now.

"It's alright," Rosemist said. "She can breathe just fine."

Wind suddenly rushed from below the mountain, surrounding Momo immediately. Momo breathed in the thick air, feeling herself stop losing her Qi as quickly.

"Th-thank you, Senior," she said.

Alex was a little surprised by what he saw. Rosemist hadn't created the wind. She had brought it from down below the mountain. It felt like a simple task, but to control something that was so far away from her was frightening.

Unless it was her that created the wind around the mountain, which Alex couldn't see why it would be the case, she should not have been able to control the wind. And yet she did, from so far away.

'I didn't even see her release her Qi to control it,' he thought. 'Was it… Intent?'

It could be that. Or, it could be because of what she was also. A Child of Heaven.

Alex was more curious than ever to know what that meant. He sat down to the side, waiting for sunrise like everyone else. They had come all the way up, so they weren't going to go down without watching the sunrise at least.

As they waited, they made some small talk until Alex found a question he really, really wanted to ask about.

"You know about the Heavenly Beasts and their blessing," he said. "Do you know about the Demonic Plants and their blessings too?"

"I do," Rosemist said. "Why, you want to learn about them too?"

"Yes," Alex said quickly. "Aside from the name of one of them, I don't know anything else at all."

"I see," Rosemist said. "The Demonic Plants are the 3 plants blessed by the Moon Goddess. The three of them are the World Tree, the Tree of Life, and the Soul Mother Tree. One to improve one's Qi cultivation, another to improve one's Body cultivation, and finally the last one to improve one's Spiritual energy."

"It is unknown if they were any different before they were blessed, but after their blessing, they soon became trees that were incredible," Rosemist said.

Alex quickly took in the information. The Tree of Life and the Soul Mother tree were names that were in his mind. He just didn't know they were what he was looking for.

The Alchemy God's Knowledge truly knew about every plant name that was out there. He was more and more certain that the White Canvas Daisy was taken out of his mind on purpose.

"Where can one find those trees?" Alex asked.

Rosemist smiled. "I do not know," she said. "I do not know if they even exist anymore. I've heard rumors of the World Tree being destroyed, but there is no confirmation I can seek. As for the other two, they are simply lost."

"If they still exist, you will have heard about them by now," she said. "They are not normal trees. Their presence affects entire continents. If such trees still exist, their existence would be common knowledge."

"I likely would still not know, but you humans definitely would," she said.

"So there is a chance I do not know, not because they don't exist, but because they haven't told me yet," Alex said.

"Exactly," Rosemist said.

Alex thought for a moment. "If they exist and the humans knew about it, they would've taken away those plants already," he said. "If they exist, it would be in some God's backyard." "If they still exist," Rosemist said.

Alex wished they existed still. He wouldn't want the World Tree to be the only one that was still up.

There wasn't much to learn besides that as Rosemist herself didn't know anything at all.

Alex took the silent few hours to take in all he had learned today and think through it. Pearl's current bloodline had a strong closeness to the Guardian Tiger, which made him very talented. With his White Tiger's bloodline, he could even be able to enter the God realm according to her.

'But the White Tigers were never Primordials,' Alex thought. 'So were they blessed around the time when God Qi was already breaking down?'

Rosemist didn't know much in terms of time. All the information she knew was just that, information. She didn't know when it happened at all, only what happened before what.

And some of them she didn't even know at all. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The night passed slowly and the eastern skies brightened as dawn approached. They all turned to look in that direction, and Momo was more excited than anyone else to see what she was going to see.

As the skies diffused the incoming sunlight, the world began taking on a soft glow before the sun even came up. One could already see the vast eastern regions of the Pillheaven Continent and the ocean far to the east.

Beyond that was just space as that was the edge. The sun emerged from beyond the space, lighting up the world in a brilliant glow of light, scattering across the land.

The view at night was incredible, but… this was beyond anything Momo could've ever imagined she would see.
