Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy,1269 Ronron's Morning - Read free novels online

Ronron opened her eyes early in the morning as her cultivation session came to an end. She could almost see the slight bit of green in the air around her that blinked in and out of existence in her vision.

She was sitting inside a formation created by her master that was used to separate just the wood energy from all the energy that was inside the formation.

Most of the time, there would be some sort of Wood elemental treasure that she had inside the formation, but this time around, it was just regular Qi that was being filtered with the formation.

As such, she didn’t have that much wood Qi to cultivate with and her night-long cultivation session hadn’t had much effect on her.

She closed the formation plate and walked out of the room she was in. She looked around the corridor and heard some sounds coming from outside.

She walked out and saw her father training in the front yard of the house. He was playing around with the golden spears that he had learned to make back in the Northern Continent.

“What are you doing father? Are you not cultivating?” she asked as she walked outside.

Alex stopped practicing his skills for a second and looked toward Ronron. “I’m just training,” he said.

“Training? Those spears? I thought you were already good with those,” she said.

“I am, but I am training for something else. I’m trying to merge two techniques, and for that, I need to learn as much as I can about this one technique,” Alex said.

“Okay,” Ronron responded simply, not understanding what exactly it was that he meant by it all. Merging techniques? What would that exactly achieve?

She wondered if she should train as well.

“What are you doing so early? Did you not sleep?” Alex asked.

“No, I was cultivating,” Ronron said. “Besides, it’s already morning. You can’t really call it early.”

“It’s still early,” Alex said. “Go back and rest for a bit.”

“No, I can’t,” Ronron said. “I need to get ready. Grandma is taking me to get enrolled into the sect.”

“Oh right, I nearly forgot about that,” Alex said. “Do you need anything before you go?”

“You’re right,” Alex said. “Still, take Whisker with you.”

The small, gray mouse jumped out of Alex’s shoulders and jumped onto Ronron’s shoulders.

“But… I thought I was supposed to experience it all alone,” Ronron said.

“He won’t involve himself with anything,” Alex said. “He’s simply there for protection. That saint might still come back for some revenge, so I must be ready for it all. Do you still have that blood core I gave you?”

“Yes, it’s in my storage bag,” Ronron said.

“Good,” Alex said. “Also, tell grandma to take you to the Tiger sect instead of the Hong Wu sect. I don’t know how good Hong Wu sect’s combat division is, but it’s definitely worse than the Tiger sect since the Tiger sect exclusively focuses on one’s cultivation.”

Ronron nodded. “Okay,” she said and walked away with Whisker. She went over to her Papa’s room, but he was still sleeping, so she let him be.

“Oh, grandaunt, you’re up early too,” she said when she saw Liz.

“So are you. What are you doing outside?” Liz asked.

“Father is training outside. I was just with him,” Ronron said.

“That little… he can’t just enjoy a few days without doing something, can he?” Liz spoke with an angry look. “I need to give him a piece of my mind.”

Liz stormed off, leaving Ronron by herself. Ronron shrugged and walked away to find her grandma.

She found her grandma along with her grandpa in their room. “Grandma~! Grandpa~! Good morning,” Ronron spoke as she entered the room.

“Good morning, Ronron,” Helen spoke.

“Good morning,” Graham responded as well.

“You guys are up already too, huh?” Ronron said. “Does no one besides papa sleep in this family?”

The two grandparents chuckled at her question. “That’s just how cultivators are. We don’t need sleep and can go without it forever as simple cultivation easily replaces sleep for all of us. Stay in these places long enough and you will realize that too.”

“Is that so?” Ronron asked. “Oh right, when are we going to the sect? Father told me that it’s better if I enrolled in the Tiger sect instead of the Hong Wu sect. He says that sect is a better fit for me.”

Helen frowned a little. “Did he say why it’s a better fit?” she asked.

“Yes, he said it’s a better sect if I intend to completely focus on cultivation alone,” Ronron said.

“Then he’s wrong,” Helen said. “He knows nothing about the current situation of the sects in detail to make such decisions. Hong Wu sect is better for you.”

“Is that so?” Ronron asked. She didn’t really care which sect it was. As long as she got to enter one, she would be more than happy. “When do we leave?”

“Are you that desperate to leave?” Graham asked while laughing a little.

“I’ve never experienced what it’s like to be in a sect, so I’m very much looking forward to it, Grandpa,” she said. “It must be something special since so many people join one.”

“Hmm, I don’t know,” Graham said. “I never joined a sect before.”

“Really? Do you want to join one with me then? You might be able to join just by saying you started cultivating very late,” Ronron said.

“No, no, I have no intention of joining any sect. You go and have fun,” he said.

“Okay,” Ronron said and turned to her grandma. “So, when do we leave?”

“Go tell everyone goodbye. You likely won’t see them for an entire month once you join,” Helen said.

“Okay,” Ronron excitedly said and walked away from the room.

Helen was surprised to see her granddaughter leave the room excitedly. “Was she excited at the prospect of never having to see us again?” she asked.

“No, she’s just excited about getting to join a sect,” Graham said.

“But she didn’t even react to the fact that she won’t be seeing us for over a month,” Helen said.

“Why would she?” Graham said. “After all, she’s used to spending her time away from her family for months on end.”

Ronron went around to say goodbye. She went back to the front yard to see if her father was being scolded by his aunt, but somehow he had instead gotten his aunt to train with him instead.

“What happened to just enjoying the days?” she thought to herself. She said her goodbyes to the two before going to her father’s room.

She woke her up and told him what she was doing.

“Don’t worry about me and go. I will be fine,” the older Alex told her.

“You won’t be lonely, right papa?” she asked.

“How can I be lonely? I have so many people around me,” the older Alex said.

“Okay, then I will see you in a month,” Ronron said and went back to her grandma’s room.

Helen had been waiting for her to return. Once she was back, the two of them left for the Hong Wu sect where Ronron was going to enroll in the combat section of the sect for the next month.
