Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Whisker scuttled along the side of the road, his aura completely gone from all around him. He looked at the sky in the distance where the giant ship hung in the air, and tiny humans in the sky fought like gods, sending tremors through the city.

Most of the city had evacuated already. Since everyone was a cultivator, it didn’t take the people to close the shop and leave immediately.

It took Whisker a moment before he arrived at the building he had been looking for.

‘Finally,’ he thought. He was supposed to have found it long ago.

His little whiskers moved in the wind, sensing all sorts of information through them. He got simple information like sight, smell, sound, and even taste of whatever was in the air through his whiskers, and he got some more complex information such as temperature, pressure, and such.

On top of that, he sensed any sort of elemental or non-elemental aura all around him, giving him an accurate idea of where he was and what sort of place he was in.

This feature was the main reason Seeking Mouses were so sought out for. Their ability to gain so much information through their whiskers and then relay it back to the cultivator that owned them made them invaluable during many expeditions where every other step had to be taken with thoughtful care.

Whisker slowly moved forward toward the building, sensing the complete lack of any sort of formations beside a barrier that had been put up to defend them from any attacks that might come down from the sky.

A simple shadow step using the Flickering Shadows technique sent Whisker inside the barrier, and he continued his investigation.

Arriving at the window of a room, Whisker looked inside. The room had 3 people inside, two men and a woman, all of whom looked to be in their middle ages.

Whisker tried sensing their aura, but it was difficult from outside the window. He needed to either get inside or send his senses inside, neither of which he could do right at the moment.

He couldn’t attack these people who were bound to be strong by himself anyway. He needed to drag them out.

He looked through the window for a short while longer before rushing back outside the formation, running to a building just a couple of buildings down the road.

Long Huan stood still with a young man who had a giant sword resting on his shoulders.

“Senior, what did you see?” Shan Wangjiu asked Whisker.

The young man whom Alex had taught sword skills back in the Martial Transcendence ground was now with the two of them.

During Alex’s search for individuals in the Balance Haven realm to cause chaos while he escaped, he had found Shan Wangjiu as a participant in there thanks to a ticket Alex had managed to get for the young man.

Once Alex told him what he was doing there, Shan Wangjiu was more than happy to lend aid to his master.

During the 15 minutes that Alex was given to announce his presence to the emperor, he had taken Whisker, Long Huan, and Shan Wangjiu out, giving them a small task.

The task had taken some time to get to, but now they were ready to do it.

“I checked the building and there are 3 people inside. But there’s a barrier covering the building. I can go in, but I don’t know if either of you can make it in or not,” Whisker said.

“Can you close the formation by any chance?” Shan Wangjiu asked.

“Maybe,” Whisker said. “I have some knowledge in breaking formations, but that is only if they’re using formation flags. If they’re instead using a formation diagram carved into a large stone on the round itself, I can’t do it.”

“No, I don’t think they have that,” Long Huan said. “That building wasn’t built long ago with proper care. It was hastily built for what it needs to do, and that only happened after the other people started showing up.”

“On top of that, I can take us in. The only problem is I can’t stop my aura, so they will find us immediately if we enter.”

“Can you not call us ‘other people’?” Shan Wangjiu said from the side. “We’re humans, just like you.”

Long Huan gave a small grin as an apology before turning back to Whisker. “What about the people in there?” he asked.

“I only saw through the window, but the three I saw were 2 men and 1 woman,” Whisker said. “I can’t speak to their strength, but if we rush in, we should be able to take them by surprise.”

“Well… we’ll see about that,” Long Huan said. “Let’s move.”

Whisker jumped onto Long Huan’s shoulders and rode him all the way to the building. They all arrived at the building and just as they did, a woman walked out of the building at the same time. Their eyes met and Long Huan couldn’t do what he was about to do at all.

It was the woman that Whisker had seen from the window. She stopped in her tracks, looking at the two humans, completely ignoring Whisker.

“Who are—”

Long Huan stood up straight. “I am Long Huan, the second prince of the Empire. As someone of the Head Legion, you should recognize me,” he said quickly.

The woman’s eyes narrowed. At first, she wondered if she was being pranked or something, but the longer she looked, the more she was certain that the man in front of him was telling the truth.

“Your Highness,” the woman said. “What brings you here to our headquarters?”

“Me and my friend here need passage inside,” Long Huan said.

“Oh, is that so?” the woman asked with a gentle smile but remained unmoving. A moment later, the other two men that were inside the building walked out, both of them looking at the prince while nodding.

Long Huan grimaced a little. This wasn’t going just as he had planned.

“Are you going to stand there or let me in?” Long Huan asked. “Surely you’re not going to deny my order, are you?”

“Hmm, I’m not sure, Your Highness,” the woman said. “We have been informed that you are an enemy of the empire now and you are to be captured on sight.”

As the woman said that, four other people arrived down from the sky, outside of the barrier.

Shan Wangjiu took his long sword, brandishing it as he prepared to fight. The ones in the sky looked strong, but so was he.

Long Huan looked at the woman in front and the two men, slowly judging their power. They were in the Early Saint Transformation realm, meaning they were stronger than every single one of them here.

Long Huan sighed and looked toward Shan Wangjiu. He placed his left hand on the young man’s shoulders and looked at the sky as he brought a black sword out. .

“Those aren’t the ones we will be fighting,” Long Huan said and activated the Ebony sword. In a snap, he appeared beyond the barrier, teleporting right behind the three people.

“They are!”

Before the three could even turn around, Whisker had already pulled out 3 wooden puppets to deal with them.

Each of the three puppets was an Immortal puppet.
