Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Aethersage could tell Alex was flattering him, but he still liked the praise. He grinned, rubbing the back of his head. "Oh right," he said, remembering something suddenly. "You didn't get a chance to enter, did you?" Alex shook his head. "I had to spend some time in the Beast Cloud sect," he said. "Why? Did they not have the Locust shells?" Aethersage asked. "No, they did. It's just the Emerald Raven's tail feathers that took me a long time to get," Alex said. "The beast didn't want to give them to me, so I had to make a pill for him and whatnot. It's a boring story that took away nearly two months of mine. When I came back, there was this situation, so I had to deal with it first." "Is it dealt with?" Aethersage asked. "Finally, yes. Senior Flareborn just gave me the confirmation that the main perpetrator has been captured. So there is no one else to take care of." "That's great," Aethersage said. "Then I must thank you for taking care of my disciple. Both you and Brother Pearl." "It's no big deal," Pearl said. "Those people were after Momo first and then me anyway. If anything, I got your disciple into unnecessary trouble." "Nonsense. I now owe you guys a debt." Alex shook his head. "You really don't have to." "But I do," Aethersage said. "Don't worry. I can pay it back immediately." He reached into his storage bag and pulled out two bright white flowers that wafted a fragrant aroma. The name of the flower appeared in Alex's mind faster than he could comprehend the flower's appearance. "The White Ascension Flower!" Alex yelled in surprise, catching the other people's attention. "You're giving this to me?" "Yes. Consider this a payment for everything you've done for me, Brother Dawnblade; from taking care of my disciple to finding me the blood earlier this year. You deserve it. Besides, I gathered some extra for me while I was inside, just in case." Alex slowly took the flowers he was given, looking at them with keen eyes. With the words he had just heard, he didn't find in himself the power to be humble and reject it. Aethersage made it clear that he did deserve it. Not to mention, Alex wanted it very badly. After all, this was the last ingredient he needed. And now he had it. "Thank you," Alex said one last time before placing the flowers into his storage bag. "So you will be leaving now, right?" Aethersage asked. "You received all that you needed." "Should I?" Alex asked. "I feel as though I need to help you as well." "No, you should go get done with the competition. I have but a single more ingredient to find, then I'll be off as well," Aethersage said. "You're right," Alex said. "Then I shall be off today." Alex waited for Killersky to return a few hours later. Before he left, he talked with the two regarding his upcoming plans. It was soon clear that they weren't going to be together anymore. "After I find my ingredient, I will enter closed cultivation," Killersky explained. "I just have to improve my cultivation base for what's coming." Alex had to concur. That was his plan as well. Considering how close he was to the Immortal Origin realm, it only made sense for him to focus his time on that as well. He had to think about how he was going to help Momo during this time too, but surely his master could help him during this period. He was going to be rid of this restriction put on him by the first competition's oath soon enough, so he wasn't too worried. After a long talk with the two, Alex and the rest finally said their goodbyes and left to return to the God's Domain. Around late evening, right as the sun was about to set, Alex and Momo arrived at Hardrock City, where there were outposts on multiple sides that waited for the tournament participants to return. Alex made his way to one of these outposts and reported what he had done. "Please go there to get tested," the handler at the outpost said, showing Alex the way to a tent at the side. Alex walked over to the tent and went inside. He explained the situation again, and the Divinity there got to work. He tested Alex's medallion first. He asked to see Pearl's medallion too, so Alex brought Pearl back out and had his medallion tested as well. Momo was tested last, checked to ensure that she hadn't gone through Qi deviation. Alex could have not brought her here and kept her someplace else, but there was no need for him to keep her hidden, so he had brought her along. After testing a few more things, the Divinity finally got to the point. "Alright, show me the ingredients," he said. Alex brought out the ingredients as the man asked, one after another. The Divinity checked the recipe and then the ingredients that were brought along, ensuring each one was correct and in the right amounts as well. - 8 White Ascension Flower Petals - 5 grams of Jade Immortal Locust Shell - 5 eyes of Gale Immortal Rat - 11 grams of Winter Heart Bamboo wood - 26 grams of Winter Heart Bamboo water - 3 True Mist Berries - 2 Crimson Blade Leaves - 5 Seeds of Cherry Blossom Apples - 16 grams of Immortal Pearl Oak's sap - 1 Devil Skull Flower - 13 grams of Quicksilver Fox's bile - 9 Emerald Raven's Tail Feathers - 15 grams of Seven Colored Angel Rose's stamen - 10 petals of Golden Mind Chrysanthemum Alex either had just enough or more than enough ingredients for each of the ones on the list. The Divinity checked everything twice before handing it all back to Alex. "You're all good. You may now make a pill out of this whenever you wish. Once you're done, bring back the pill to be tested. If you fail to reach 80%, you'll have to find the ingredients all over again. If you pass, you will pass the competition." Alex thanked the man and walked out of the tent. Finally, it was time to make the Grand Tranquility Pill.
