Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy,1243 A Few Questions - Read free novels online

Alex and the rest teleported back into the open field where they had been sent before. He looked around for his family who had been standing by him.

“Finally, I’m back,” Liz couldn’t help but say as she looked around the modern world that she had missed so much.

“Brother Fan, actually, I should probably call you Frank since you’re back. You know where you’re supposed to go right?” Alex asked.

“I do,” he said with a solemn face. He looked around the old world that looked foreign to him now.

Alex turned to his daughter. “Can you buy a couple of phones and give one to Frank? Get one for grandpa and grandaunt too,” he said.

“Okay, I’ll get one for you too,” Ronron said and walked away from the field with her new younger sister.

“Don’t worry… uh, uncle Frank. If you end up not having a home, you can come live with us on our farm. The place is massive and will have enough place for you and little sister,” Ronron said.

Frank looked at her. “This farm… it’s where another Emily lives, right?” he asked.

Ronron nodded.

“Then I don’t think I can go there,” Frank said. “I can’t live in a place where I’m constantly reminded of my wife only to remember she’s already gone.”

“Oh… okay,” Ronron said.

“I will need to leave. I need to go meet my master,” Hao Ya said. “I will see you guys later then.”

“Wait,” Alex quickly spoke up. “Ronron, take everyone home. I will come there later.”

He called out Pearl and Whisker too and sent them with his family. Pearl was now a small cat, so he easily fit in anyone’s arm or shoulders, and could thus be easily taken around too.

Alex left with Hao Ya to go to Senior Yang’s place. He had a few questions to ask him that he had thought of in the past week as well as let Scarlet talk with Senior Luhei about his brother.

They arrived at the mansion after a few minutes of flying and entered. Hao Ya quickly went into the separated room to find her master and tell him the teleportations were complete.

Alex went to the backyard and spoke with senior Luhei along with Scarlet for a bit before the senior walked back out.

“I hear you were a lot of help during this travel,” the senior said. “Thank you for helping Hao Ya with the task.”

“It was nothing really,” Alex said. “I just did what I could to help the players get back home.”

“I hear you had to give up a few pills,” the senior said. “Please accept my gratitude.”

Alex felt weird hearing such politeness from a person that was no different from a god to everyone in this world. He smiled slightly and bowed.

“How long do you think it will take you to send us to the Western Continent?” Alex asked.

“No time at all,” the man said. “I can send you all right now if I want to.”

“Oh, really?” Alex asked with a surprised expression.

“Yes,” the old man said. “Unfortunately, while the Western continent does have a new teleportation formation, it hadn’t been tested or even properly tuned to teleport people yet. So, I will have to send you all randomly this time around, which I can do any time.”

“Randomly? As in we won’t know where we will appear?” Alex asked.

“Yes, I’m afraid that’s what it means,” the senior said. “I will try to send you all as close as possible, but I can’t guarantee it since the fine-tuning I have done before was destroyed when the Yang energy burned it all.”

“I will have to go off of what I remember,” the senior said. “But don’t worry, I know the gist of where I will have to send you exactly. You will most likely appear on the western side of the continent, near some large cities.”

“I see, that helps I suppose,” Alex said.

“Anyway, you should go and relax for a few days. I will let you know if I think it’s time,” the senior said.

“Actually, senior, I wanted to ask a few things of you that I did not get to ask last time around,” he said.

“Oh, what sort?” the senior asked.

“My first question is regarding Pearl actually,” Alex said. “You said that he had destroyed his Bloodline, right? What if I give him mine? I also have the White Tiger’s blood essence flowing in me. If I were to give him that part of me, will he heal?”

The senior shook his head. “I do not know if that will help restore his bloodline or not, but even if it does work, it still won’t help your beast at all,” the senior said.

“Why not?” Alex asked.

“A White Tiger is known for its two aspects,” the senior said. “It’s exceptional techniques that are passed down through the generations via their bloodline. And their Supreme Spiritual roots that they are born with.”

“Actually, all Heavenly beasts are like that. They have skills and techniques that are passed down via their bloodline and a Supreme Spiritual root. If they lack even one aspect of it, they can never be considered a heavenly beast, do you know why?”

“Because you can’t use one without the other,” the senior said. “The skills that are passed down through the bloodline require a Supreme root to use it.”

“Let’s say you do give your cat your part of the White Tiger’s blood Essence, it will still be missing the most important aspect to make use of that bloodline, the Spiritual root,” the senior said. “As I mentioned, he not only lost his bloodline but also his Spiritual root when he saved himself.”

“I have no idea why he did that, or even how he knew to do so, but he did, and now he is in this situation. So, what you are suggesting will not help your cat at all,” the senior said.

“But… can’t the White Tiger’s bloodline improve one’s spiritual root to a Supreme level? It did for my Metal root. It should do the same for Pearl too, right?” Alex asked.

“White Tiger’s blood doesn’t have that sort of powers,” the senior chuckled. “If they did, they would be hunted left and right. do you know how many people would kill to have a Supreme Spiritual root? It takes multiple celestial-grade treasures to give yourself one.”

Alex got a little depressed. “So, my option really is to force him through evolution, huh?” he thought.

The senior nodded before pausing for a second. “Wait, what did you mean by your spiritual root improved? How?” the senior asked.

“Oh, after I ingested a big drop of White Tiger’s Blood Essence,” Alex said to the senior.

“White Tiger’s blood essence helped evolve your spiritual root? really?” the senior checked Alex’s body and was surprised. “Is it because of your body?”

“Is it?” Alex asked.

“Maybe,” the senior said. “To think the White Tigers were so bold as to keep a treasure of such high importance in a place like this. They must’ve been out of their minds. I’m surprised you got away with it at all.”

“Huh? Treasure?” Alex shook his head. “There was no treasure. I got that Blood Essence from Pearl’s mother after she died.”

The senior paused for a moment. “From Pearl’s mother? Isn’t she—” the man stopped as a few thoughts moved through his head and his eyes went wide from something he understood.

A curious look appeared on his face as he looked at Alex.

“Pearl’s mother, was she a White Tiger?” he asked.

Alex thought for a bit and shook his head. “Not that I know of,” he said. “I hear that beasts have a chance of keeping their features after evolving to a White Tiger. If that was the case, then she should be.”

“When did you meet her? It was before my system was destroyed, right?” he asked frantically.

“Yes, it was before that,” Alex said.

“What was her species?” the man asked.

“Uhh… a White Cat,” Alex remembered.

“Not a White Tiger?” the man asked.

“No, not a White Tiger,” Alex replied.

“Then… perhaps she never…” the man thought and suddenly started laughing out loud like a crazy man.

“If that Blood Essence really did come from his mother, then you might just have a chance to help him.”
