Chapter 2024 Elder Liang
"Spear?" Alex asked, surprised. No one close to him had ever used Spear, so it was surprising that Pearl even wanted it. He couldn't help but wonder where Pearl could have even got the idea of using a Spear from and a thought crossed his mind.
Thinking more about the reasoning, a soft smile formed on his face.
"Is it because your father was a Spearman?" Alex asked.
Pearl nodded. "My father used a spear, so I must use it too, right?" he asked.
"I mean... I think Scarlet mentioned that the elders of your family don't like it when you use weapons," Alex said. "Are you sure you still want to?" "Who cares what they think? I'm my own person, aren't I?" Pearl asked.
Alex couldn't help but smile. "Alright, I'll buy you a simple spear when we are back in the city. When you are used to it, I'll see if I can fix your father's spear. Shouldn't be too difficult."
"Really?" Pearl asked, his eyes wide in happiness. "Thank you, brother!" He jumped to give Alex a big hug.
Alex smiled and patted him on the back. "You deserve it," he said. "Alright, let us leave. I have a few things to do and then we can leave."
Pearl let go and nodded.
Alex took Pearl back into his Soul Space before leaving. He wanted to keep Pearl outside now that he was fully human and could not be recognized as a White Tiger, but he still didn't dare do so while in the midst of so many Divine realm cultivators. VịSit no(v)3lb/!n(.)com for new novels
He would let him out once he was back in his store again.
After leaving the training area, Alex made his way back to Sunheart Peak to talk to Elder Sunheart about something. He spoke to her for a bit, asking about a few things.
After he got the answers he needed, he headed toward another Peak that he needed to go to.
He arrived at the Peak that belonged to Liang Qulong, the Prime Alchemist.
The man had apparently been back from the moon for a while, so he could meet him now. Alex has asked Sunheart to send a message that he was coming since he didn't know any other way to do so.
"Elder, I am trying to become a Supreme Immortal Alchemist. I came here to gain your approval," Alex said.
Supreme Immortal Alchemists weren't supposed to get approval from their own sect members, but it was different when it came to the Blue Silk sect. As long as one could get approval from Liang Qulong, it counted as any other approval.
After all, he was the greatest Alchemist of the Blue Silk continent, second only to a female Alchemist in the Spring Grass Continent.
Liang Qulong was quite surprised when he heard what it was that Alex wanted to do. He looked at Alex, quickly measuring his cultivation base before frowning.
"You are just in the Immortal Ascendant 2nd realm. Becoming a Supreme Immortal Alchemist is impossible for you," the man said.
"Is having a high cultivation base one of the requirements?" Alex asked. "I was told that it wasn't."
"It isn't," the man said. "But to be a Supreme Immortal Alchemist, you need to be able to use any and all Immortal ingredients, and some of them will be too difficult for you with your current cultivation base."
Alex didn't like that answer. "What do you suggest should be the lowest cultivation base I have?" he asked.
"At least a few more realms. You need to be well into the Immortal realms before you are able to handle all ingredients," the man said. Alex thought for a bit. "Ignoring the issue with my capability of handling the strong ingredients, would you approve me otherwise?" he asked. "Are there other issues I should be wary of?"
The man shrugged. "I do not know how good an Alchemist you are," he said.
Alex pulled out his blue pendant. "I received this license 4 years after becoming an Immortal," he said. "And I come from a lower world. Would that influence your decision in any way?"
The man didn't react at first, but the more he thought about what Alex said, the more his expression changed. "What?" he couldn't help but ask in surprise. "You received this that soon?"
"Yes," Alex said. "I don't mean to come off as arrogant, but I am a very talented Alchemist, senior."
The Elder looked at Alex with narrowed eyes for a bit. "Okay, I'll entertain you then," he said. "Bring me a Heavensent Invincibility pill with at least 80% Harmony that you made, and I'll test you for the rest to see if you are worthy of my approval."
"Heavensent Invincibility pill?" Alex asked to confirm. He had never heard of that pill.
The man nodded and pulled out a talisman before throwing it in Alex's direction. "Make this pill and return it to me. Until then, do not ask me for approval again."
