Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Chapter 1673 Teleportation

As lightning bolts fell from the sky on the pill Alex made, Long Huan went up to Hannah and told her they were going to be leaving soon. He started gathering everything that was in the room that the would need when they arrived in the Southern Continent.

One after another, the lightning bolt fell into the cauldron and faded away. After the 8th lightning bolt, Alex stopped and took out the pill, putting it into a bottle.

He tossed the bottle over to Long Huan, who caught it in surprise. “What is this?” he asked.

“Just a healing pill,” Alex said. “Anyway, let’s get going.”

He walked up to the two of them and grabbed them on their shoulders. Then, he closed his eyes and felt his connection to Whisker. There.

Long Huan shuddered as the world transformed around him. The room they were just in changed and they arrived in another room, standing next to Zhan Luoyang who had Whisker standing on her shoulders.

“How did…” he tried to speak, but the shock made him unable to.

Whisker jumped onto Alex’s shoulders. “Get a carriage ready and place these two on it,” Alex said. “I’ll come in a few minutes.”

Before Zhan Luoyang could even nod, Alex disappeared from where he stood, appearing back in the room inside the building.

He took Memory back now that he had made the pills and sighed as he understood what had to be done next. He was running away from this continent, even if for only a few days hopefully, but that would most certainly bring about some problems.

Should he tell the Crown Prince what he was doing? After all, the Crown Prince was the greatest authority right now, with the Dragon Emperor in deep cultivation. ‘I’ll do what the rest say is wise,’ he thought. He would need to first tell the two elders what was happening.

Alex left the building and returned to the two elders who were lounging in the garden, talking to a few people. He took them away and explained the situation as quickly as he could.

“We are ready to leave this place if that is what you wish of us,” Yao Ning said. “We will take the young lady with us.”

Alex nodded. “Thank you,” he said softly.

“You don’t have to thank us, Your Majesty. That is what our purpose is,” Liang Shufen said. “Anyway, let us leave.”

The carriage was prepared by the time Alex went outside, his excuse being that he wanted to visit more of the city and go shopping. The servants would be there just to help him navigate.

Two carriages were prepared for that reason. Hannah and Long Huan would ride on the one behind, and in front, would be Alex and Zhan Luoyang.

And surprisingly, the Crown Prince.

Alex hid his frown before it appeared. “Oh, are you going shopping with us, Prince Fangyu?” he asked the man. His eyes moved toward Zhan Luoyang, and a look of resignation was on her face.

“I do not know what you are planning, Your Majesty,” the Crown Prince said. “But if you can help my brother be happy, please do.”

Alex said nothing but simply nodded. “I’ll do my best.” Thankfully, there were no soldiers or guards with them aside from Alex’s group. Not even Long Huogang was there for some reason. He was supposed to be the Crown Prince’s bodyguard, was he not?

The carriage moved and they left the Zhan family manor house.

The road to the city was short, but it felt like the longest journey Alex had ever been on. He worried about what he was going to have to do next.

Alex knew for a fact that the ‘guards’ he had been assigned were meant to watch him at all times. Fortunately, they hadn’t assumed their current situation to be dangerous enough to warrant protection. Either that or the Crown prince had made them stop.

Either way, he was now free of them. But that would only make the Dragon Emperor more suspicious when he learned of him being missing for the next while.

Could he leave behind Yao Ning and Liang Shufen for the sheer illusion that he would return in a day or two? He wasn’t sure. He wanted to take them with him until the very end and see what decision was the correct one there.

Not that they would let him go alone. They were his shadows in his journey. Wherever he went, they would too. At this rate, Alex sometimes wondered if they would follow him right to the Immortal lands when he did breakthrough to that one day.

They arrived at the city, and their carriage led them to the building that housed the teleportation platforms. “Where do we go next?” the Crown Prince asked.

“You should go to the Blackheart City,” the Crown Prince said. “The secret realm is right outside of there.”

Alex nodded before realizing something. “You’re not coming?” he asked.

“I will be of no use there,” the Crown Prince said. “Instead, I’ll stay here and tell everyone you’re doing something important and can’t return soon. That should help you get some time.”

Alex realized that would be quite helpful. “Thank you,” he said to the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince nodded slowly. They quickly got off the carriage and walked into the building where the Crown Prince used his authority to make the next teleportation happen to Blackheart City.

The workers there tried to explain how that would be difficult to do as it was not in their records, but the Crown Prince’s presence made them find a way. And they did.

After just 10 minutes of waiting, the teleportation formation was prepared to take them straight to Blackheart City, from where they would go to the Voidgate.

Everyone got onto the formation platform, including Zhan Luoyang who would see them to the very end.

Alex got on top as well, and held his sister’s hand on one side, while Long Huan held it on the other. Touch was the only thing she could sense, so the both of them tried to do their best to make her feel safe. 𝑙𝘳𝒶𝒹.𝑐𝘰𝓂

“Thank you, brother,” Long Huan said. “I don’t know how long it will take me, but I will come back once my wife is healed. Maybe I won’t have to fear Father then.”

“Do well, brother. I wish you and your wife the best,” the Crown Prince said from outside of the platform, nodding to his brother.

Long Haun nodded back and got ready for the teleportation platform to activate.

As it activated, all 6 of the people there saw light shine through the platform. The white light gathered around them, and Alex felt the teleportation aura fill the air.

Then, they teleported.

The Crown Prince watched the 6 of them vanish right before his eyes and knew where they had gone. He sighed a little, wondering why he hadn’t let either. ‘No, I can’t leave. I have to stay back to help them however I can,’ he thought. He shook his head and turned around to leave.

As he did, the light behind him flashed once again. He turned around, wondering if something had gone wrong and they had been returned. However, that was not the case at all.

A single man stood on the teleportation formation now, arriving there right after everyone had left.

The Crown Prince’s eyes widened in surprise.

“Father?!”
