Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Misty breaths filled the air as the three men stood silent for a while. Two waited for Alex to do something, while Alex himself was silent because the scene in front of him looked so very familiar.

“Fellow Daoist,’ the girl’s father spoke. “Is everything alright?”

Alex finally came out of his stupor and looked toward the father. “I’m sorry, I started remembering something similar to this,” he said.

“You’ve seen this happen before?” the man asked. He felt hope budding inside of him which any other time he would’ve squashed.

“Once, and I can’t tell if this is similar or not. Most likely not,” he said. “I’m sorry I wasted some time. Let me start right now.”

Alex walked close to the girl and felt not violent, but rather an intense Yin flow come out of her. It was simply so intense that to normal people the intensity looked violent.

Alex crouched next to the bed and took the girl’s hands again. The white-haired girl’s listless hands felt so incredibly cold at just the slightest touch.

Anyone normal that held it for too long would get affected by the yin in her body.

Her cultivation was still only True realm and yet the Yin she produced was enough to make Saints shudder at her presence. Perhaps that was the reason why she had gone into a coma.

Her body simply wasn’t equipped to handle the intense Yin and that was most likely why she had gone into Qi deviation.

Alex sent his spiritual sense into her arm to check her body, but the moment he did so his eyes widened in surprise and he himself stood back a bit in fear.

“What! What’s wrong?” the man asked.

The other alchemist was confused as well.

Alex did not answer and quickly released his spiritual sense to look around the room. He saw the walls, the bed, the two men, and the girl. He also sensed the intense Yin around them, but it posed little threat to his spiritual sense.

‘But then why?’ he asked himself as he moved back to the girl and used his spiritual sense to look into her body. The moment it entered, it simply disappeared.

It was no different than looking into the Void where the spiritual sense vanished at its touch. However, that wasn’t what Alex equated the experience to.

He equated it to the same familiar scenario from a long time ago.

It was very similar to what had happened with his master, Ma Rong.

There were differences, of course, which he quickly latched on to. His master was never ill with Yin, but rather with Yang. It was only after she had been healed that the surrounding started freezing over.

She also had a Yin aura surrounding her that made it impossible to use any spiritual sense or Qi around her. In this girl’s case, it was only inside her body.

Once he made himself aware of the differences, he finally stopped thinking about his master and started focusing on the problem at hand. He needed to heal the girl somehow. .

He thought of making a Yang heavy pill for a moment, but he remembered something. He quickly reached for her arm and poured some neutral Qi into it. The moment the Qi entered, Alex lost all control of it as it was consumed by the Yin.

“I see,” he said, finally understanding a little. “No wonder pills didn’t work on her. All energy dies inside her body.”

“What?” the girl’s father asked.

“Her body is filled with Yin. No pill out there is going to be able to work on her unless with deal with the Yin itself,” he said.

“But…” the man panicked. “There is no one who can deal with the Yin. My wife is perhaps the most talented person when it comes to Yin energy, and even she couldn’t do anything about our daughter.”

“Is that so?” Alex asked, a little surprised to hear that his wife was such a great person. ‘Who is this man?’ he wondered.

Alex thought for a bit given the lack of every other possible way to heal her, there were only two that he could think of.

“There are only two ways to heal her properly,” Alex said. “Either we introduce a lot of Yang into her body to deal with the Yin, or we directly take Yin out of her body to remove it from her body.”

The two men heard that and the alchemist spoke. “But no pill works on her. Most of them had most definitely been Yang pill I assume. How are you going to put Yang Qi into her?”

“I have a way,” Alex said, but he didn’t say anymore as he thought for a bit.

“How… how strong would the Yang need to be?” the man asked with a hesitating face. “My daughter has a Yin body constitution. Would it not be a problem if we introduce Yang?”

“She does?” Alex looked surprised for a moment before turning around toward the girl. ‘Of course, she does.’

“Yes,” the man said. “Not only that, she cultivates a very strong Yin technique, so if we introduce Yang haphazardly, won’t it be a problem?”

Alex nodded. “It could be a problem,” he said.

“Also, Yin and Yang don’t necessarily cancel each other out all the time, do they? Sometimes, they can also get violent and instead become chaotic in nature. What if that happens inside my daughter’s body?”

Alex gave an awkward smile. “I guess that is out of option then,” he said. He had already halfway thrown the option out the window the moment he understood that it was going to be his Yang Qi that was going to enter a True realm girl’s body.

Such strong Yang Qi would burn the girl’s body from the inside while making its way to the Dantian where the Yin was most likely concentrated. He couldn’t do that.

“I will have to drag the Yin out then,” he said.

The father looked surprised. “Can you?” he asked.

Alex thought for a bit. “I can’t guarantee yet,” he said. “I’ve never done it before, but I will have to try.”

“Her yin is strong. Won’t you get hurt?” the man asked.

“Don’t worry about that,” Alex said. “I am more than equipped to handle some Yin.”

He sat beside the girl for a moment and wondered what he was going to have to do. After a moment of thought, he landed on the idea of using the Undying cultivation technique to absorb the Yin Qi.

After making the decision, he closed his eyes and started using the technique. Immediately, the Undying technique started absorbing Yin from the surroundings to empower his body, and it was so much more fruitful this time around.

While Qi dealt with his body, he finally took the girl’s hand to take Yin away from her as well.

Nothing happened at first as there was too much Yin in the surrounding for his body to pull from her. However, after patiently cultivating for an hour or so, once the Yin in the room started lowering, every bit of Yin in the girl’s body started moving toward Alex.

Everything was going according to his plan.
