Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Chapter 1891 Time Passed

Alex fell into a routine. For 10 hours a day, he would train his Body, Sword, and Intent until he could no longer. Then, for the remaining time, he would cultivate, and try to get his Qi back.

Despite being in the Saint Transformation 5th realm now, Alex was in no hurry to try and break through and instead concentrated his entire time on just getting as strong as possible with other methods.

Days passed as he did this, and then months. Soon it was over a year since he began doing this.

And he had barely gotten anywhere.

Everything was improving for sure, but the improvement was a slow incline instead of being big steps forward. Alex had to continue doing this for a long while before he began feeling the difference.

So, Alex continued training, spending years and years in the place simply improving.

Hao Ya and the snake were the only ones who knew where he was and what he was doing. None of the other people knew about him at all. Even Pearl had only been notified much later on. Pearl was with Bai Jingshen, training in his own way. He came to visit him from time to time when he could, but when it was time for the teleportation formation to send everyone to the Western Continent, he left again.

Pearl’s improvements during such a period were understandable, perhaps even expected. He was after all a White Tiger, being spoiled by his great-grandfather and grandmothers. As such, it came as no surprise to Alex when he realized that Pearl was halfway through Saint Soul’s realm. By the time it was time for him to be immortal, he could even reach Saint Transformation realm.

What did surprise Alex was the fact that Whisker had reached the Saint Core realm already and was improving so very quickly. Whisker has remained with Alex the entire time, hiding in his beast space most of the time. Sometimes he went with the Snake or Hao Ya to learn a few things, but most of the time he stayed with Alex.

Because of his Undying bloodline, every time Alex trained in his Undying Physique, which he did more frequently after regularly getting torn to shred, Whisker reaped the benefits of the non-stop cultivation to reach where he had.

Alex hoped that if he continued like this, by the time his body was strong enough to no longer make any progress, he would have reached Saint Soul realm. For Whisker to reach that realm would’ve been an incredible feat considering how slow his cultivation speed was.

More than a decade passed, and Alex still trained in the Qi barrier. He had made significant improvements by this time, but he still trained in the tail end of the Qi barrier.

Alex’s body had gotten stronger of course, and his Sword Domain had improved. He could now make his Sword Qi in his Sword Domain not work in specific locations of his choice. He could also make them more concentrated on certain locations by siphoning the Sword Qi from the empty area.

The area was still vague and required him to be far more precise, but this was no small improvement.

But the biggest improvement perhaps belonged to his Intent.

Alex’s Intent had grown stronger. He no longer struggled to fight against the Intent that kept the violent Qi in the area. Now, he could make a small section of the Qi, about 2 meters in diameter, stop being violent completely for nearly 20 seconds before the headaches began.

Even after that, he could keep it going for about an entire minute before he had to involuntarily give it up.

Alex knew that the Intent around the Qi that violently ripped him apart was nowhere near as strong as what kept the rest of it encircling the continent.

If he continued this, he could show a lot more improvement for certain.

Some more years passed and one day, Alex felt his body enter the Saint Transformation 9th realm of strength. At this rate, it would take him about 2 decades more to reach the peak.

That was if he remained at the tail end of the Qi barrier. If he moved even up toward its main body, he could perhaps train even harder.

Alex decided to do it.

Beginning that time, he joined the body of the Qi that moved around the continent, that which thoroughly destroyed his outer body the moment he stepped in. His body healed almost as quickly but the Qi tore it up once again. There was not a time that Alex went during this training period where he wasn’t constantly in pain.

He also tried using Intent but in small amounts. He could not afford to get knocked out in this place which would leave him dead if he ran out of Qi.

So, after he finished a few hours of body training, Alex stayed behind in the tail end of the Qi barrier, and trained his Sword again, before training his Intent at the end.

Alex trained in such a way for a few months when he thought of something he simply hadn’t thought of in a long while. It was his initial plan to get rid of all the Qi in the barrier so that the Central Continent would go back to being normal again.

His idea at the time had been shot down. Without destroying Godkiller’s remnant Intent, the Qi barrier would simply form back again with what Qi it could find. And within years, it would reach back to how it was before.

However, that was just his beginning thought. It was the thought it led to that got Alex thinking.

Sure he could not destroy the Intent by stripping the barrier of its Qi, but what could he do with the Qi if he could strip it of it?

Alex didn’t even have to think about it. There was something that had been asking for resources for a very long time, and he had finally found a way to feed it some.

Alex could not strip away all the Qi at once, but he had learned how to strip a chunk of Qi of its Intent through his Intent training here. He could use it, and so he decided to.

Alex began by using his Intent to turn all the violent Qi back into their non-violent state. Doing so took some measure of his Intent and he could feel the strain in the back of his mind. A chunk of Qi followed Alex’s Intent and stopped moving all around. Then, Alex took those Qi and siphoned them into his Soul Space, far away from the trees.

He needed to check first if they would suddenly turn violent when he left them be. He was ready to pull them back out.

Alex stopped, and the Qi simply dissipated as though it had nothing to keep it in one place

‘It works!’ Alex thought excitedly.

Seeing as how he could transfer the Qi into his Soul space without any danger, Alex began the very lengthy process of taking the Qi from the Qi barrier to feed the trees inside his soul space.

As for exactly how long that would take, only time will tell.
