Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 2139  Information

Once Alex was done purchasing the few ingredients he wanted, he left the store to go roam the city. He made sure to leave the store while noticing what the location was like so that he could easily return here should he need to.

He saw many carriages roaming through the middle of the city, while he himself walked on the side path. The city was bustling still, but no doubt much less than how it would be during the day. Everyone walked around, focused on their own business. Alex watched how mundane the daily life felt everywhere.

No matter where he went, no matter how strong the cultivators were, life eventually became mundane for everyone.

"It's quite cold," Whisker noted.

Alex felt around. "Is it winter perhaps?" he thought. But then he looked above at the massive gap in the sky. It could very well be that as well. He couldn't confidently tell if it was winter or the Yin of the Ever-Dark realm was affecting this world like it was affecting its gravity.

He ignored the cold and then walked around the city with no destination in mind. He simply wanted to walk around aimlessly.

The hole in the sky moved, moving further and further to the right as time went on. At some point, it covered the entirety of the moon, making the sky feel truly dark.

But then, when Alex looked at the area around him, the many lanterns and torches that lit up the city did more than enough to brighten the land. He walked around the city for a few more hours, and as he did, something peculiar happened that he hadn't expected to be feeling, but it was something he should've known would happen.

Gravity shifted around him, pulling him more in one direction than the other. Because the realm above him had moved as daytime came around, it had also changed the gravity, pulling him toward it to the side.

Alex looked toward it, thinking light may begin hitting that world now that sunrise was on its way, only to realize that the direction in which the realm went was the exact opposite of where the sun came up from.

No matter the time of the day, that place would always have the Eclipsing Heaven realm between it and the sun.

As the sun began rising in the east, Alex finally returned to the Alchemy store and went back to his place.

Whisker went back to the Demon realm, taking care of the many plants once more. Alex then went to try and deal with the new ingredients he had bought today. He wouldn't be making any pills with them, just trying to understand the shape and energy the ingredient released when he changed the temperature, rotational speed, and direction of movement.

He spent in his room for 3 days and then began cultivating for the rest of it. Since there wasn't much to do, he also body-cultivated and improved his Spiritual energy for a bit before finally being called out.

Alex walked out and met Silvermist, Grimsight, and Firestar in the room. Snowleaf wasn't there. "You're here," Silvermist said. "Sit, the information you wanted is here as well."

"Oh!" Alex turned to look at Firestar. "Did you find something, senior?" "I asked around, and found something, although I'm not sure if it will be helpful for you," Firestar said. "This might not be who you are searching for."

"Understanding that they may not be who I am searching for is equally as important, senior. It helps me know that I need to search for them elsewhere," Alex said.

The woman nodded. "There was one person that came from the 3rd Major World within the last 100 years. It was a young man, and he came alone. You said you came with a family?"

Alex nodded. "Then this young man cannot be the one you're searching for, can it?" Firestar asked.

"He is not," Alex said. That was it. That was all he needed to know from this world. His family was not here.

"That is all, right?" Alex asked. "No other besides that one man?" Firestar shook her head. "He came here about 60 years ago from what I'm hearing. Did your family leave 60 years ago?" she asked.

"No, earlier than that," Alex said.

"Hmm. You should've mentioned that. It would be easier to check the exact time when someone came here," she said.

Alex nodded.

There was a flaw in his search, he understood that. Wherever his family may have ascended to, should they not be captured, their first and foremost priority would be to get to the Sky God's Palace.

To do that, they had to teleport through the various worlds until they arrived at their destination. The very first one would be the one where they ascended from the 3rd Major Spirit World, but each successive one would not be that.

But he had no other parameter that he knew to help with the search.

However, despite the lack of information about where they were, recently, his mind had calmed a lot more.

Because each world had Sky God's people working the teleportation formation, Senior Yang could go to them and ask them for their help. It was unsure how much they could help against the Gods, but even if nothing, they could deliver messages directly from senior Yang to those people.

So, he had little to worry about now. "Are you okay with that information?" Firestar asked. "I know you said it's alright, but it truly is just nothing. If you want, I can dig a little deeper and see if there are other worlds that may have your family or—"

"No, senior. It's fine," Alex said quickly. He could not let the fact that he was searching for people from the 3rd Major Spirit World to others who knew that was where senior Yang had disappeared to.

Anyone who knew that could come looking for him for answers, and that was just not something he could afford at a larger scale. It was fine just searching bits and pieces here and there.

"If you say so," Firestar said, not wanting to push further.

"By the way, senior. Do you happen to know who it was that came here?" he asked. "The name of the young man."

Firestar shook her head. "I learned nothing important about him, just that he is now somewhere in the northern continent. I could try and find him, but I'm not sure I can do it within the timeframe you guys are working on. It will take longer than 2 years at least."

"We can't have that," Silvermist said loudly.

"We can't have that indeed, master," Alex repeated. He bowed deeply toward Firestar. "Thank you for all the help, senior. I shall remember your grace for as long as I live."

Firestar smiled a little. "Don't worry. It was easy for me; barely an inconvenience," she said. "You can go back to doing what you were."

"No," Silvermist said from the side. "He can't rest now. We are going to the Skysummit."

Firestar raised an eyebrow. "Oh… are you trying to see how close to Ever Dark realm you can go?" she asked. "Good luck."
