Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

alized that a human with a True realm could never fully refine the power of the sun itself.

The yang and the yin, the fruit and the orb, the heat and the cold, they started fighting each other directly in his body.

Neither was stronger than the other and that only meant it would take a really long time before a winner was to come out of the two ’s fight.

Realizing his body was going to be wrecked for a long time, Alex immediately sat down in a meditating position and started cultivating with his Yang technique.

He hoped it would give just the tiniest edge to his yang power and help it win over the orb.

As he cultivated, the yang and yin continued fighting and they would do so for a long time.

After her son didn ’t message her for over a week, Helen started getting worried.
She sent messages of her own, but they never reached her son.

Helen told Qin Shan about her worry and he soon established a searching party that would go to the Icy Hell to look for her son.

When the members of the guilds, the Han family, the Heaven ’s Peak school, and the various other people realized that they were looking for Alex, the alchemist that made a 92% Immortal ranked pill, they were more than happy to go search for him.

Within a day they reached the vicinity of the Icy hell.
They covered a massive area as they searched the snow domain, but they never found any sign of him.

They slowly moved so it took them a while to search everything, but even after a whole week passed, they didn ’t find anything.

Helen had told them about the messages she had received at the start where her son talked about the freezing coldness of the place, so she knew he had come.

When even after another week they didn ’t find him, the searching party was forced to accept that Alex had died and his body was likely eaten by the beast.
Or worse, he died in the cold further away where even Saint realms weren ’t safe.

When they returned, the news spread through the entire empire and soon many mourned the loss of a genius, and maybe even more so the recipes that genius was able to acquire.

Everyone was now fully accepting of the fact that Alex had died.

All except two people.

Helen and Pearl knew for a fact that Alex was still alive.
Pearl told her that their bond hadn ’t yet broken so there was no way Alex had died at all.

That however only made Helen more worried as she started to believe that her son was suffering a fate worse than death.

In fact, there was one more person, or rather one more beast that knew Alex was alive.

The Jaguar regularly returned to the cliff at night to watch the bright light at the center of the valley down below.
He knew that light was Alex, and thus knew that he was alive.

Only he didn ’t know if he was safe.
Regardless of the situation, the Jaguar would continue to watch over Alex as that was the command he had received.

He would wait for Alex to return.
One would wonder what the jaguar would do If he only knew how long he would have to wait.
After all, it would take a while for Alex to return.

– – Extra from Shen Jing ’s life – –

Shen Jing had returned back to his home nearly a year ago.
He had come back for some special tasks that he needed to complete, but before he did so, he needed to have an audience with the family ancestors.

He wanted to tell the elders about Alex and how great he was.
He was sure the ancestors would love to hear about him.
However, in the entire year he had been here, the ancestors were never out of cultivation at the same time.

He had expected it to take decades before they all got together, but to his surprise, just a year later, they had all gathered up and were now asking for him.

Shen Jing walked into the halls with his head bowed down.
He could be arrogant and bold in front of the humans back on the Western Continent, but in front of these ancestors, he was but a young baby that was still sucking on his mother ’s teats.

A single breath from them was enough to kill him if they wished to do so.

So, Shen Jing showed his best respect to everyone in the room and greeted all of them.

Many of the ancestors sat alongside the hall on massive chairs that were more pedestals than chairs.
They viewed him from up above, providing a different set of pressure on Shen Jing.

Each of these ancestors was a monster of their own right, with legends that went back thousands upon thousands of years.

He walked to the center of the hall and kneeled before the giant curtain which only showed the silhouette of the oldest ancestor of their family.

”Child, rise, ” a voice arose from behind the curtain.

Shen Jing slowly rose to his feet, but he still didn ’t dare look in the direction of the curtain.
In fact, he had to use all of his will to keep himself from looking up at all.

”Why am I hearing conflicting reports about you? ” the ancestor asked in a soft voice, but that sent waves of pressure on Shen Jing.

”There was a misunderstanding, ancestor, ” Shen Jing replied.
”The first report was a wrong accounting of what really happened. ”

”Misunderstanding, huh? Then explain to us what really happened, ” the ancestor said.
”Explain what you have been doing all this time instead of your duty. ”

”Yes, ancestor, and it ’s a very interesting chain of events that you will absolutely want to hear, ” Shen Jing.
”To start off, I will have to tell you where I have been all this time. ”

”I was in a unique place, a place known as Earth. ”
