Chapter 2165  A Small Break

Never before had he thought that he could have ever made this many pills at once. He had assumed he would stop at 10, but he had reached 18, and he still wasn\'t fully done. After some more practice, Alex was certain he could push it to 20 too. But that would still take him time.

The amount of stress he had to handle both physically and mentally while controlling so much energy at once was massive and he needed a slightly higher cultivation base to continue handling them better.

His cultivation base had gone nowhere during this time as expected since he had no time to cultivate except when he ran out of Qi. Other than that, he was ignoring his cultivation base for the most part to focus on his alchemy.

Silvermist had told him to let him know after the next improvement he had made, so Alex let him know what he had done. He waited for a reply, but there was none. Alex frowned a bit. Silvermist had never been slow to reply. He waited for a while, and when he didn\'t get any reply, he asked Pearl to come visit him when he had the time.

Pearl came sometime later. "Brother, are you done with your training?" he asked as he walked in. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"This leg of it at least," Alex answered. "I\'ll have to start again once my master comes and gives me something else to train in."

"I see. Did he tell you when he will be coming back? Senior Grimsight told me nothing about it when he left," Pearl said.

Alex frowned a little. "Left?" he asked. "Left to go where?"

Pearl was surprised. "You don\'t know? I would\'ve thought he would have told you. I don\'t know either."

Alex thought for a bit and messaged the fur-faced woman, Shi Quanli. The woman replied almost immediately.

"Court master has gone to God\'s Domain to handle some matters with the Alchemy God. Most likely to do with the upcoming tournament. He has told me to ask you to rest for a while if you are done training before he arrives."

Alex was surprised. \'So the preparation has already started for it?\' he thought. There should have still been 40 or so years remaining before the competition began. Seeing as there was so much time, Alex couldn\'t imagine why they would have to begin setting it up this early.

But since this was an Immortal world, and the competition was going to be one of the greatest ones ever, he understood why they had to start this early.

\'I wonder what sort of contests they are setting up,\' Alex thought. \'Will Master know if he is helping them with it? Wouldn\'t that be violating the fairness of the tournament?\'

Alex would have to see how it would all be handled in the end. "It seems they won\'t be coming back for a while, so we are free to do whatever we want," Alex said. Even though he said that he couldn\'t leave this mansion, so he still didn\'t have that many things he could do.

In the end, the only thing he would be doing was cultivating and maybe improving his body and mind.

"Oh yeah, how is your cultivation going, Pearl? Are you anywhere close to breaking through just yet?" Alex asked, sensing Pearl\'s cultivation base. Pearl shook his head. "I only broke through less than 5 years ago. I haven\'t had much improvement since then," he said. "I am trying my best though. I am buying some pills to help myself."

"Buying pills?" Alex asked. "Why are you buying pills when you have me? I can get you much better pills than what they can. Show me the pills."

"I didn\'t want to bother you since you were training so hard," Pearl said, bringing out a bunch of pills. Alex took the pills and looked inside. No doubt, they were all good pills. Quality ones as would come from the sect. The pills were better than what he sold in his shop back in Newsky City.

But, compared to what he could make, they could only be considered trash.

"I won\'t let my brother train with such bad pills," Alex said, pulling one out and holding it tightly. He took a deep breath and immediately employed the Divine Elemental Accord technique to quickly pour energy into the pill.

Pearl watched from the side, feeling the intense energy that buffeted around Alex\'s fist. Energy poured out of Alex, pouring back into the pill. And within seconds, there was a cloud forming within the room.

Alex did not move. He simply stayed where he was, focusing on his fist. Qi enveloped it immediately, protecting the pill inside.

The lightning bolt struck his hand, but his fist remained undamaged. He waited for the other one and it struck down too, his fist still remaining undamaged.

Unfortunately, Alex had to stop at 2 pill veins. If he had just a little more strength, he could\'ve gone for the third pill vein, but with the Ritual Oath making it so that he needed to defend against Immortal Origin 8th realm equivalent lightning bolt, he could only give up.

He could\'ve easily done 4 pill veins if he didn\'t have to hide it. But with his master gone, if he created a pill cloud in the sky right now, people would notice it was him right away.

Alex did the same with more of the pills and quickly found himself feeling empty both physically and mentally. He pushed himself way too much after just making 18 pills at once just a few hours ago.

He had had the time to rest, but no time to get back what he had lost.

"Next time, just get the ingredients for the pills. I\'ll make the pills myself. You won\'t have to wait for someone else," Alex told Pearl.

Pearl took the pills and nodded. "I will do that."

They talked for a bit about everything Pearl did while he had been busy. He was surprised when he found out that Pearl had learned Spear Aura. He had learned it a while ago and had more than honed it already.

"Great. Senior Grimsight has been keeping to his promise then," Alex said. "I would love to train with you, but I have to train for the tournament. Once that is over, we will have all the time in the world to become strong together."

Pearl nodded enthusiastically. After some more talk, Pearl went into Alex\'s soul space to spend some time there. And Alex left the room to go cultivate.
