Chapter 2300 The Book of Endless Recipes
"I added nothing, Your Majesty," Alex said. "There was a mistake with the ingredients I was given, so I was forced to make use of what I could, given the situation."
"Mistake, you say?" the Alchemy God put on a curious face. "What mistake did my people make?"
"One of the ingredients in the Twilight Consuming Pill, the Sky Gold Jade leaf was of a different variant than the other ones. I couldn't make a pill with just that leaf, so I had to make a variant pill with that one on its own," Alex said. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The Alchemy God took a moment to consider what Alex said, looking at the two different types of pills in his hand.
Alex watched him look at the pills and could see his mind working behind his eyes at a tremendous rate. He was already discovering mysteries surrounding the pills that Alex hadn't even known existed yet.
Flames suddenly burst all around both him and Alex, covering them both from prying eyes. The Alchemy God then put down the two pills for a moment and pulled something out from his Soul Space. The bright blue metallic cover of the Book of Endless Recipes was something Alex could never forget. The picture of the scroll at the center was one that he remembered clearly from Alchemy God's memory.
He could feel a connection to the book like he knew how one could use it. If not for the fact that he knew he had never seen this book before in his life, he could swear he had even used it before. It was all due to the Alchemy God's memories being in his mind. It was like instinct for him.
The Alchemy God flipped the book open. Alex tried to see what was inside, but he couldn't see things at the angle he was in, and he couldn't read anything using his spiritual sense. He could probably see something if he forced his sight, but there was no way he was going to do that in front of the Alchemy god.
It wouldn't even stop when all the possible recipes with the ingredients were provided already. It would begin adding new ingredients and start giving other options.
Truly a book of endless recipes.
Having come across the recipe that had to be the one that Alex used, he noticed that the pill Alex had made fit the description of the pill that was written there.
That was to say there had in fact been a mistake today while handling the ingredients, and Alex had managed to not let that ruin his attempt.
The Alchemy God closed the book and placed it into his Soul Space before looking at Alex. The flames that surrounded the two were now gone completely. "Before I leave, how did you know the ingredient was not right?" the Alchemy God asked.
Alex raised his hand and released a strong Metal aura. "I have a very good Metal spiritual root and have managed to learn the True Metal Dao through it," he said. "I am very sensitive to ingredients that have metal energy within them."
Showing off his True Metal Dao was something quite serious, but Alex needed something to throw away the Alchemy God's scent from what other possibility there could be.
"I see," the Alchemy God said, smiling. "Then I shall keep my eyes off you. Best of luck for the upcoming competitions. Goodbye."
The Alchemy God left.
