Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

then? ” he asked.

”There are a certain group of talisman makers that are focused on just that, ” Helen said.
”You are taught and can learn the basics of ink making, but it is always better to have an expert make it for you. ”

”I see, ” Alex said as he stared at the ground, thinking to himself.

’Formations need artifacts, artifacts need formations, alchemy needs artifacts and formations, maybe you can carve runes on artifacts too, ’ Alex thought to himself.
’It ’s all so interconnected. ’

”Alright, go back and read the book for now.
Try to remember as many runes as you can, and we can continue from there, ” she said.

”Okay, ” Alex nodded and left, leaving Pearl behind with his mother to keep her company.
She had really come to take a liking to the little cat and he liked that.

Over the course of the entire night, Alex remembered every single rune in that book.
He also remembered everything else that was written on it.

That book wasn ’t a technique book at all, so Alex had to deal with the information over the course of the next couple of days.

After all, remembering something wasn ’t the same as knowing it.
It wouldn ’t be hard, but it wouldn ’t be easy either.

Slowly, under Helen ’s teaching and the occasional sect master ’s guidance, Alex managed to reach 40% on his talisman by the end of the month.

And that was despite the fact that he also practiced Alchemy quite a lot and a bit of formation on the side.

Alex was certain that he wouldn ’t reach for very soon due to the limitation of the ink and the brush he held.

What he was certain was that he would surely cross True Heaven rank at the very least.

Now, all he had to worry about was making sure his creativity kept up with his talent.

’I guess I can just rely on what others have done before me and not really worry about how I would solve some problems, ’ Alex thought to himself.

Alex knew that right now his main focus needed to be on alchemy.
Because of that, he had to begin downgrading some of the True pill recipes he had to Common pills in preparation for the pill to heal his hand.

Still, he gave some equal time to both talismans and formations, while spending the majority on alchemy.

In one month, he felt he had made a lot of advancement in both of them and could consistently create Heaven-grade talismans and formations.

So, no longer hesitating, Alex went to the Talisman guild during the second month and took an exam.

He passed with flying colors as he made every single talisman with more than 55% Alignment.

Half a month later, Alex went to the formations guild as well and became a True Heaven formation master.

Fortunately, not many people learned of this fact.
And the few that did keep their mouth shut.

If anyone learned that a single young man of age less than 25 had not only learned 3 of the main professions, but was also good enough to reach True Heaven rank on all 3 of them, the city would certainly be shocked, and even figures from the capital would come to see him.

Fortunately, those that did know about it really wanted to keep him for their own guilds, and as such, no information was spread.

There was also another event that took place during the 2 months that was enough to distract the city ’s attention enough so that no one took notice of Alex ’s improvement.

After all, it wasn ’t always that the empire gained a new True Immortal rank Talisman maker.

Qin Shan ’s nose was massive with pride and glee as he watched his disciple be taken as one of the best talisman makers out there.

Even Tian Ye would barely be her match now that she had the spiritual sense to aid her.

The only thing that could possibly hold her back now were things that were out of her hands such as Ink, paper, and brush.

The quality of these things wasn ’t something Helen could simply change herself.
Buying better ones cost a lot sometimes, so you had to make do with cost-effective stuff.

Since you had to buy paper and ink yourself, most talisman creators were only so eager to spend so much on their craft.

Fortunately, paying for your own stuff meant that, unlike the alchemy guild, you didn ’t have to pay some fee for screwing up your talisman.

Alex didn ’t know how he felt about that for in his mind the Alchemy guild ’s system was much better.

As such, 3 months passed by in flash.
Alex had learned a lot during this time and he found every second he spent learning Alchemy or the other 2 professions was very helpful.

However, that also meant that he had neglected his own cultivation quite a bit.
He needed to think of a way to get that back on track as well.
