Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Chapter 2105 Oath

It had been a little over 2 years since Alex had broken through to his current cultivation base. So to reach the next cultivation realm, it would take him a lot of time no doubt. So, he made preparations for it.

Before even going into deep cultivation, he had to make a ton of different pills so that he didn’t have to stop in the middle of his sessions to make some pills.

Mostly, he needed to make pills that aided with his cultivation speed, Qi recovery, and the Spirit Junction pill to help improve his Spiritual energy.

Alex sat with Memory in front of him and took a few minutes to himself. He had made a lot of pills throughout the nearly 2 decades he had been in this world, and in all of those times, he had only ever made a single pill that had pill veins.

Now that he wasn’t tied to a shop or had people around him, he was finally free to make pills with pill veins once again. He could call on the pill clouds.

However, because he wanted to keep that aspect of his alchemy a secret, he needed to make it so that the pill clouds did not appear in the sky outside. He needed to do that which he had been putting away for the longest time since he didn’t have the cultivation base needed for it just yet.

Alex was going to have to finally make the Ritual Oath.

A Ritual oath, as he had learned from the Alchemy God’s knowledge, was a type of oath that was made with the heaven to give them something good in exchange for taking away something else that was good as well.

It was a type of deal made with heaven to receive a boon and a curse at the same time.

Based on the Ritual Oath the Alchemy God had made, and which Alex was going to make now, they would get to make pill clouds appear without having it be visible in the sky outside.

It would always appear inside of the closed confines they were in. If they were not, it would still appear just above them, instead of in the sky. That way, no one would ever know that they had made pills with pill veins.

It was not just a way to hide pill clouds from others, but also a way to be able to secretly stay in a place without every other cultivator knowing that one was there.

With Alex’s current cultivation base, should he call a Pill Cloud, he could make a pill of up to 3 Pill veins. The third lightning was as strong as an Immortal Origin 2nd realm cultivator, and Alex had been strong enough for that the moment he broke through to Immortality thanks to his self-created technique.

However, after making this Ritual Oath, one needed Immortal Origin 4th realm of strength to even just make 2 Pill Veins.

With Alex’s current cultivation base and techniques, he was able to do so, which was why he had decided to make this Ritual Oath now.

2 pill veins were certainly not as strong as 3 pill veins, but in exchange for not having a constant thundercloud hovering on top of his mountain, it was a great trade-off. freewёbnoνel.com

Alex didn’t immediately make the Ritual Oath. There was one thing he needed to make sure before he made the oath.

He closed his eyes, going through his memories to the Alchemy God’s knowledge he had still within him. He read about the Ritual Oath thoroughly and sighed in relief when his fears were quelled.

“Thank god I can choose when what happens,” he thought. It would be rather awkward if he was making a pill in front of someone and the pill clouds appeared just 10 meters above him instead of out in the sky. He needed to be able to choose between what he wanted, and it seemed this oath allowed him that freedom.

‘Could I give myself an easier time if I let go of this freedom? Will that affect the Ritual Oath in any way?’ Alex wondered.

There was certainly a possibility there, but he didn’t know about Ritual Oath enough to make such changes to the oath. For now, he would stick to what the Alchemy God left behind in his knowledge.

Alex took a deep breath and spoke out the words in the exact order as they were laid out within the oath.

“O Heaven! I make this Oath with you,” he said. “Let the pill clouds no longer appear in my sky when I wish for them not to, and I shall take on a higher difficulty when making my pills.”

Alex looked up above, waiting for the aura to settle down on him. He felt something stir certainly, but… nothing happened. He waited for some time longer but still didn’t feel anything.

That was… weird.

‘Did I make a mistake?’ Alex thought, quickly taking some more minutes to go through the words he spoke and how it was laid out in the Alchemy God’s knowledge.

No, he hadn’t made any mistakes. He had done everything precisely as he was told to. Then why had it not worked?

‘Should I try again?’ Alex wondered and shrugged. There was no harm in trying so since it hadn’t worked. This time around, he put more weight into his words. More gravitas.

There was a higher level of Intent when he spoke the same words again.

“O Heaven! I make this Oath to you!” Alex practically screamed toward the ceiling of his cave, talking to the heaven above that had to be listening to him.

“Let the Pill Clouds no longer appear in my sky when I wish for them not to, and I shall take on a higher difficulty when making my pills.”

His words were loud and clear, and seemingly just what was needed.

Alex felt the change immediately. An aura fell from the sky, descending onto him. It had a similar feeling to the regular oaths to it, but this time, it felt less binding and more… linked.

“YOUR OATH… IS ACCEPTED!”

Alex froze.

He looked up and about. His senses reached the furthest they could, crossing multiple mountains at once. And yet, he saw no one anywhere they could have said those words just now.

The voice he had spoken had come out from the sky, from the ground, from the air itself. And somehow, it had come from deep within Alex himself.

“Was that… the Heaven?” Never before had he heard the heaven. Never before had he even known that heaven could speak.

The voice he heard sounded distorted, like two people speaking at once. It sounded neither male nor female. And somehow, it sounded like it belonged to both.

It had a deep voice like a speaking mountain and yet soothing like a breeze. The sort of feeling Alex got from hearing that voice was certainly bizarre.

“I didn’t imagine that voice right?” he thought. He could only chuckle a little to himself at the end as there was not much for him to say. And yet, there was still that feeling.

Why did that voice sound so… weak?
