Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Alex simply couldn’t decide whether the Elixir was worth it or not. There were still so many inquiries he had that he couldn’t get an answer to just by himself.

From what he could see through his point of view right then and there, the Elixir was not worth it at all. After all, he was so used to fighting fights where he easily got hurt and regenerated.

He couldn’t do that with Elixir in his body, as that would waste all the Elixir he gathered. It simply didn’t fit him at all.

Alex was a little disappointed to realize that, considering how much he had spent, but it was good knowledge still. Now he could focus on other things like cultivating and training against beasts.

“Do I still need to keep eating those beasts?” Alex thought. “If Elixir isn’t going to help me, then there’s no point in wasting my time consuming all those beasts, right?”

To him, his reasoning was sound. But something inside of him was annoyed by something there.

Alex’s eyes narrowed, looking down at the jar. The amount of Elixir inside of that jar had been enough to send his strength up to Immortal Transcendent 1st realm. That was the average of what most beasts in this region of the desert had.

“Doesn’t that mean each beast has this much Elixir in them?”

Again, a sound reasoning. But it completely contradicted what he had been learning all this time.

“I have eaten at least 10 complete beasts in the past decade and a half. That should be close to 10 jars’ worth of Elixir. How come there is barely a fraction of this jar’s worth within my body?”

It made no sense. The beasts were clearly stronger by naturally having this Elixir in their body. And it wasn’t just the beasts with Sunhearts either, so a Sunheart had nothing to do with their strength.

Alex was stumped.

He could see there being the possibility that beasts were naturally stronger because they could do something with the Elixir in their body, but then so should there be a possibility for a human to do the same thing.

“The Elixir costs over 4000 Sunhearts. No one in their sane mind would purchase this if there was a possibility of simply losing a portion of it if they took minor wounds in battles. I am clearly missing something.”

Alex tried to think of what he could be missing. How could both the beasts and humans be making use of them?

“Beasts grow bigger,” Alex thought, the sudden realization making sense to him. It was the perfect explanation for why beasts grew to become as large as they did, despite the fact that their cultivation base never improved.

“Does the Elixir do something to grow their body?”

Alex wondered if it replaced Qi and became the thing that helped a beast grow. That was probably the reason why they grew to be so big.

“And then in doing so, they use up their Elixir. That’s why they have so little,” Alex thought. “What about with humans? They certainly consume it and make it their own as well so they can never lose it. How?”

Did simply training help? Did it have something to do with Intent? Was there a formation perhaps?

Alex planned on going to ask the people in the city what they knew, but he first tried out everything he could by himself.

It was a good thing he did because almost immediately, Alex found the thing he was looking for.

Qi Cultivation.

That was all Alex needed. Qi Cultivation somehow made it so that every part of his body was accepting of the Elixir, and the Elixir seeped into each part, improving them instead of just depositing in that location.

Alex cultivated for a whole day, trying to have all of the Elixir used up, but it seemed he underestimated how long it would take. He wouldn’t be done in a few days at all, so he had to go at it for nearly half a month.

Two weeks later, Alex finally finished his cultivation, succeeding in completely consuming all of the Elixir so that it was all combined with his body, not a single bit of it left behind.

When he was done, he couldn’t help but be incredibly satisfied with the result. His body was now properly at the Immortal Transcendent 1st realm, such that even if he were to be completely destroyed, when he came back, he would have the same strength.

“My body has noticeable changes now compared to a week ago,” Alex thought in surprise. Nothing had changed about its shape. He still looked the same as he did a week ago. He had simply grown stronger with what he had.

“Even a person who has never exercised in their entire life can become a body cultivator simply by drinking it,” Alex thought. “Truly worthy of the name, Elixir.”

Alex wanted more now.

“If only I knew how to draw it out of the countless beasts I kill,” Alex thought. He simply had no method of doing so.

All he could do now was focus on gathering more Sunhearts so he could purchase another jar of Elixir.

There was still a question that remained in Alex’s mind; one that he didn’t know where to get the answer from. He had gone to the people of the Endless Night Sect who had sold him the Elixir and asked them this question, but they didn’t know either.

Whether they were lying or not, he couldn’t know. But since he didn’t get the answer, the question remained a mystery for now.

Humans got their Elixir from the beasts, but where did the beasts get their Elixir?

The answer couldn’t be other beasts, since all beasts had an incredibly small amount of Elixir in them to begin with.

Did they grow it in their body?

Alex was rather curious about it now.

If he found out how the beasts got their share of Elixir, could he perhaps skip them entirely and go straight to the source?
