Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Alex was a little surprised that his master didn’t call for him to follow her since their original plan was to come and check the books to see if there was some knowledge about anything they had trouble understanding.

But after seeing everyone else basically start to look for books, he decided to look for them on his own too.

He looked up and checked the names hanging from the ceiling and searched for any that caught his interest. The first thing his eyes naturally went to was Alchemy.

’Do I check alchemy? I don’t think there can be anything there— Ah, the pill made from Spirit Cleansing Lily. Maybe there is some information about that,’ he thought and went over to the area.

He saw quite a few disciples from his sect hanging around the shelves. As one would expect, this was where the disciples from an Alchemy sect would hang out at.

Alex looked through the shelves at the titles of books and tried to search for any that he would want to read. A few books caught his attention, but when he read them, he was disappointed.

They contained knowledge that he already knew or wasn’t very helpful to him. He looked through more books but they weren’t very good.

’Perhaps the first floor is too low level for me,’ Alex thought and left them there. Disciples like Wan Li and the others who had been learning Alchemy for half their life also didn’t need this information, so they decided to go up the floor.

Alex didn’t immediately go up, however. His books of interest in the library weren’t alchemy books necessarily. He wanted to learn about the Lilies and his body.

He looked around the lower floor and came across the formation section. For the last few days, he had been really curious about the formation and had wanted to learn it.

There was also the formation that gathered Qi that he had acquired the tools for from the place in the southern forest. They had been sitting in his storage bags, doing nothing and he wanted to desperately make use of them.

If possible, he wanted to learn formations and swiftly recreate the formation in the Hong Wu sect’s alchemy garden.

’Arghh, I need to focus on Alchemy. Practicing two different veins of production might slow me down on both of them,’ he thought. However, the curiosity still remained in his heart and he couldn’t throw it away.

So, he opened some of the formation books from the shelves and started reading them. He didn’t bother understanding what the books said. He only concentrated on remembering everything he was looking at and reading.

He couldn’t send his Spiritual Sense to swiftly look through all of it, so he had to manually flip through the book to read it.

He read through a few of the basic knowledge books and stopped. There was nothing significant he had to read here. He stopped searching through the first floor at all and moved up a floor.

There were a lot more people on the 2nd floor than there were on the first floor. Perhaps the first floor was really beginner level for these people to bother with them.

Alex chuckled softly and shook his head. He was not even a beginner in formations, so it was okay for him to waste his time there.

He swiftly found his way around the floor and went to the alchemy section. There wasn’t a lot here and it seemed most of his fellow disciples had already gone up a floor again.

’This must be too easy for them too,’ Alex thought.

He didn’t bother reading these books at all. He instead started searching for any slightest hints of Spirit Cleansing lily in the books.

Unfortunately, there weren’t any here either. He found some mentions of Spirit Cleansing Lily, but they more so talked about what it looked like more than anything else.

Those information were useless for Alex. He then went around searching for any other places that could mention the lilies such as cultivation. After all, one could unlock the Spiritual sea when cultivating with one of them.

Unfortunately, there weren’t any.

He searched for information on bodies at the same time too, but he could find none for it as well.

’Damn, how high must I go to find any relevant information at all?’ he wondered. Thankfully, the formations were new ground for him and any information was relevant information.

He read them for a few minutes, basically cramming anything and everything into his brain without trying to understand it.

Once he was done, he left that floor as well.

He went to the third floor and looked through the alchemy section once more. He once again found mentions of the lily, but none of the information was new to him, so he reluctantly went to search for other things.

He started looking for books on the different bodies, but something else caught his eye. It was a book in the artifact section that talked about different materials.

’Maybe…’ Alex wondered as he had a small premonition.

Alex quickly opened the book and started looking through it. It took him a dozen or so seconds, but his eyes caught it. The thing he was looking for in the book.

’Yang Jades,’ he read it. He found information about Yang Jades.

There wasn’t much information on it, only that they were jades with Yang energy in them. However, there was something in them that intrigued Alex way too much for the book to not be worth it.

According to the book, Yang Jades were actually not naturally occurring jades, but something that was a result of something else. The book didn’t say anything else but that alone was worth it.

He now knew where he could search for more information.. Alex spend a few more minutes looking through the different books in the Formations section of the floor, and once he was done, he went up a floor again.
