Chapter 2254 Great Advancement
The staff looked at the list of ingredients and was confused for a second. "I've never seen some of these ingredients before," he said. "Never knew Gale Immortal Rat eyes or Jade Immortal Locust Shell to be ingredients."
Alex didn't blame the man. He was quite surprised about them as well. "What about the rest?" he asked. "Let me check to make sure," the man said and left for a bit. He came back a while later. "We have the True Mist Berry, the Winter Heart Bamboo wood and water, and the Devil Skull flower. The rest... we have some of Seven Colored Angel Rose's stamen, but not enough for 15 grams."
Alex was surprised there were so many of these. "Have you seen anyone who has worn a medallion like this before?" he asked.
The staff looked at him and slowly shook his head. "This is my first time, I fear," the man said.
Alex nodded. "I will take what you have from the list," he said. "Also, do you happen to have Spirit Cleansing Lily and the Divine Devil fruit?" "We do," the man said.
Alex's face glowed in happiness. "Finally! I will have those as well." n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Right away," the man said, leaving to collect the items.
"Master, what were those last 2 items? Those were not on the list of your ingredients," Momo said.
"No, they are something else," Alex said. "They are the reason why I haven't begun your Alchemy lessons just yet. I have tried finding it back in God's Domain but failed to find any each time, almost as though they were already bought away."
"But, now that I have found it, it will take you one cultivation session to get ready for your lesson. Then you can finally begin making pills of your own."
Momo's eyes widened as she heard those words. "Really? I can... finally start?" she asked.
"Yes," Alex said. "Tomorrow morning, we will start your lesson."
The staff returned a few moments later with a storage bag full of all the ingredients, costing Alex a total of just over 9000 Immortal Spirit stones. Considering he didn't even buy that many ingredients, it felt like a scam. But that was how it was with strong ingredients like Devil Skull flower. It was likely of a good grade.
"I can barely see the colors."
"Brother, your eyes are too good."
"Huh? Oh... you guys can't see that as well, huh?" Alex asked. "Anyway, that patch of colorful land over there is the flower garden. When we come there later, I will take you guys to the top of the mountain too."
"Yay!" Momo celebrated.
They arrived at the Redmist city. By the time they were there, it was afternoon already. They had spent a lot of time going everywhere.
Alex and the group once again entered an Alchemy store where he asked the staff if they had the ingredients he was looking for. It appeared they had the Immortal Pearl Oak's sap. It was even enough for Alex to get all of what he needed.
They didn't have anything else, but Alex was happy with the sole thing he found.
Just the day before, he had a total of 4 of the 14 ingredients he needed, and he was happy with just that. And in a single day, after coming to a different continent, he now had 5 more ingredients, and part of a 6th one, leaving 4 others to be found on his own.
Alex found a courtyard which he purchased for a year. He had a feeling he would be staying for that long at least in this place.
Once they were settled, it was time for Momo to begin cultivating. The Divine Devil fruit could wait for later. For now, the Spirit Cleansing Lily was the more important of the two.
"Hold this with you while you cultivate," Alex explained. "You won't have to do anything else."
"Okay..." Momo said, still quite confused about what exactly was happening. Alex had told her her Spiritual sea would open and she would gain Spiritual sense, but what did that even mean exactly?
Still, if doing this meant she was going to get to learn Alchemy, then she would do it however many times as it was needed.
So, she closed her eyes, took in a deep breath, and started cultivating.
