Chapter 2158 Continuous


    Alex made pills in 5 cauldrons, and then in 6 cauldrons. They were still easy, so he added two more cauldrons. The pills themselves were so easy that most of what he needed to focus on was paying attention to all the cauldrons at once.


    He added another one and then finally the 10th cauldron.


    At that point, Alex knew that he could add another one too without failing too much, but it had be enough of a problem that he decided to stop.


    "I don''t think I can spread any more of my attention," Alex said. "At least not right away. I would need some more training if I want to add more."


    "No, no, this is good," Silvermist said. "10 is a great starting point. I think it is enough even, since you will have to work with harder pills soon."


    Alex nodded. "So what do I do now? Practice this until I make absolutely no mistake at all?" he asked.


    "Yes, that is what you must do," Silvermist said. "Practice that until you can manipte 10 cauldrons at once with no effort."


    Alex nodded and began trying the same thing once again. He prepared the ingredients and made the pills again. He was used to it enough at this point that making the pills over 10 cauldrons in a row did not give him any issue at all.


    He did it once more just for the sake of it and came out even more sessful. It had only been half a day since he came here and the main task Silvermist had given him had beenpleted.


    "That should be enough, right master?" Alex asked. "What now?"


    Silvermist smiled. "Now, you make 9 of the same pill in 9 cauldrons, and a different pill in another cauldron."


    Alex raised an eyebrow in shock. "You want me to introduce variety?" he asked. "Am I going to have to do this until I can make 10 different pills at once?"


    Silvermist grinned wider this time around. "So you understand it. Yes, that is exactly what you must do."


    Alex thought for a moment and nodded. "That might take some time, but I will do it," he said.


    "You do that, I''ll go do my work," Silvermist said, getting up to leave. "Little Shi, you don''t have to stay here at all times. Juste here once a day to see what he needs. He can request for more if he needs something directly."


    The fur-faced woman nodded and provided a talisman to Alex before leaving. "I will be avable at all times to help you, young brother. Do not hesitate to let me know."


    Alex thanked the woman and began with his task.


    He had worked with multiple pills before, making even different ones. But never to this scale at all. He had never had to make 10 different pills, all at the same time.


    This was going to be a difficult task no doubt. Alex seeded in making 9 of the same pill and 1 different pill on his first try. Instead of adding another pill, he instead changed the ratio to 8 and 2 instead.


    He continued making those pills and made the ratio closer and closer until he could make 5 of one type of pill and 5 of another type of pill in 10 different cauldrons.


    It took him the rest of the day to get there with few breaks in between where he made sure he wasn''t overworking his Intent. Easy task it may be for his Qi, but it was difficult for his mind.


    He wasn''t just splitting his attention 10 ways after all. In every cauldron, he was focused on the recipe, the ingredients, the energy, the me control. There were so many small variables in each process of pill making and he had to focus on each one of them.


    Once Alex seeded in making 5 and 5 pills, he added another one.


    The work was tedious, to say the least, and annoyingly difficult. He knew he could get there; It was just going to be a boring journey was all.


    Alex worked for 3 whole weeks, doing his best, even failing a couple of times before he could make 10 different pills in 10 different cauldrons. He did it a few times before he could finally be certain that he had done the perfect job.


    10 cauldrons. 10 True Pills. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    ''That was quite difficult,'' Alex thought. Having to do multiple things at once added a level of difficulty that he had never before faced when making pills.


    Even when he was making up to 16 pills at once across 4 different cauldrons, the difficulty hadn''t been the same at all.


    He spent some time cultivating to get back to shape before letting his master know that he was done.


    Silvermist arrived sometimeter and sat before Alex while making him do it all over again so he could see.


    Alex did as asked, and made all 10 different pills once more, each one over 90% in harmony. Silvermist gave a satisfactory nod and stood up. "Good work. Now do the same with Saint pills," he said and left.


    Alex sat there alone and sighed. He took a small break to get back to shape and then got right back into making the pills.


    Saint pills were harder to make, so he needed to pay more attention to the pill itself now, instead of just splitting his attention in multiple different directions.


    Instead of starting with 10 cauldrons, he started with 5 before slowly adding one after another until there was no more.


    It took time, over 3 months of time, but he managed to do it in the end.


    10 cauldrons. 10 Saint pills.


    Alex was tired by the time hepleted the task and needed a break once again. He began cultivating while checking on what was happening with his Soul Space.


    He checked over Whisker and the rest of the Demon realm. Everything was going along just fine and Whisker was taking care of everything by himself. There was no need for him to do anything at all.


    He finished his cultivation sometimeter, feeling how far along he hade in his cultivation base. At Immortal Ascendant 5th realm, he could tell that he still had some ways to go.


    Thankfully, even if he took 15 years to reach the next realms each, by the time the tournament rolled around, he was going to be in the Immortal Ascendant 9th realm by the end of it. He called over his master again, and Silvermist arrived not long after. He asked to see what Alex had done once again and waited for him toplete it.


    Silvermist smiled seeing that. "I have never seen someone learn this so fast," he said. "Most take longer to make pills with fewer cauldrons. You are truly talented."


    Alex smiled. "Thank you, master," he said. "What now?"


    "What now? You should know the answer by now," Silvermist said, a smile forming on his face.


    Alex had a foreboding feeling. "You don''t mean…"


    "I''ll ask little Shi to prepare the Immortal ingredients. Let''s see how well you can do with those."


    Alex felt as though the world had lost its light. He was going to do the same thing all over again. Only this time, he would be making Immortal pills.
