Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy - Chapter 1943 Mission Complete

Chapter 1943 Mission Complete

Alex watched through Whisker’s eyes, watching the glowing lights of Tai Guidao’s lifeless corpse flow into the bodies of the two sect masters on either side who were cultivating.

They absorbed that light like a regular cultivator would absorb Qi from the atmosphere. The light was drawn to them.

“What… what is this?” he couldn’t help but ask out loud. “What are they doing?”

“What? What is happening? What do you see?” Elder Lan asked. Back in the alchemy room, they were curiously waiting for Alex to explain what he was seeing.

Alex did as asked, explaining the situation as well as he could.

“You can see it all clearly then. Can you perhaps record it somehow?” Elder Lan asked.

“Maybe,” Alex said, quickly bringing out a recording talisman and focusing on it.

To record something, one simply had to activate the talisman while paying attention to that which they wanted to record. Alex wanted to record what he was seeing, so he did.

He was successful.

Alex quickly recorded everything he saw, from the room to the people within it. He recorded the bright light coming from Tai Guidao’s body and going into the two sect masters.ViiSiit n𝒐velb𝒊/n(.)c/(𝒐)m for l𝒂test 𝒏𝒐vels

As he focused on recording, he saw something that made him sick. Whatever was being done to release the energy from Tai Guidao’s body, was causing Tai Guidao’s body to slowly dissipate.

It was almost as though the body was evaporating from Alex’s perspective. It was a horrible sight.

“They are completely destroying his body,” Alex said softly. “How are they even doing this? Some sort of formation? Technique?”

“What are you seeing? Show me. It might be enough,” Elder Lan said.

Alex let a bit more record before stopping and showed it to the man.

Elder Ming came up close and checked as well. As they watched, their eyes slowly changed due to what they saw. They had no way of knowing beforehand that something like this was happening.

“Demonic…” Elder Ming said suddenly under her breath. “This… this really is a Demonic sect.”

“Yes…” Elder Lan said, slowly putting down the talisman, having seen everything. He needed to see nothing more. “Our assumption was correct. They are using humans for cultivation. Absolutely demonic!”

“Report it, right now,” Elder Ming shouted. “We cannot wait any longer.”

“Yes!”

Elder Lan quickly brought out another talisman and placed it right onto Alex’s talisman. He then closed his eyes and focused on it for a moment.

The talisman on top suddenly began glowing bright, and then both the talismans burned in a flash, leaving not even ash behind.

As Alex watched the sudden bright light in front of him vanish, through his other vision connected to Whisker, he saw the free sect master suddenly look up.

He stood up all of a sudden, and his senses immediately spread in every direction.

Whisker was instantly hit by a strong spiritual sense, one that came from an Immortal. He was unable to hold onto his own consciousness at all.

Alex suddenly lost all information from Whisker, aside from the fact that he was still there far away. The next thing he knew, Whisker had died.

‘Dammit, he revealed himself,’ Alex thought.

Alex could tell that Whisker had fallen unconscious, which would mean that he could no longer continue using his technique to hide himself. Both invisibility and concealment would be gone at once and he would appear inside of the room all of a sudden.

One of the sect masters had to have killed him.

“My Seeking Mouse is dead,” Alex said quickly. “The sect masters know that you just did something.”

“Damn it,” Elder Lan said and quickly turned around. “You two, time to leave.”

The two people who were busy making pills at the end of the room looked up.

“Have we been caught?” one of them asked.

“Leave? We’re going back to the sect?” the other one asked.

“Yes,” Elder Lan said. “Ming, we need to leave too. The Elders will be here at any moment, but we can’t stick around.”

“What about you?” the woman asked.

“I’m leaving too, of course,” Elder Lan said. “They have found us out.”

Elder Ming nodded and brought out a talisman that burned in front of her the moment she brought it out. Immediately, silver light surrounded her as a strong teleportation aura released from the light.

Alex watched in blank surprise as the female elder disappeared from the room, gone very, very, far away.

He saw two more flashes from the back as the other two Alchemists were gone within seconds as well.

“What… what is going on?” Alex asked. “Where have they gone?”

Elder Lan brought out his talisman, but he didn’t use it immediately. “Listen to me,” he said. “I am not an Elder of this sect. I came here undercover to investigate the sect. I was sent by my Elders on a mission and now my mission is complete. So, I will be returning.”

“Things will get difficult around here, so you should find a way to leave as well.”

Alex didn’t know how to begin to leave this sect. Especially since the sect masters had certainly gotten suspicious of Whisker’s presence in their room. They would sooner or later find that it was Alex who had put him there.

That was a death sentence waiting to be announced.

“Can’t you take me with you? I’m dead if I stay here,” Alex said.

The man hesitated. “I’m sorry. I would if I could, but this talisman only works for a single person. If I were to let you go, I would die instead.”

It was a selfish choice, but it was the choice of survival. No matter how much the man thought wisely of Alex, he was still his own man, and he needed to protect himself.

“If you can somehow survive this night, come find us. I’ll help you join the sect,” Elder Lan said.

“What sect?” Alex asked.

Elder Lan smiled a smile full of the proudest look he had ever given. “The Blue Silk sect,” he said. “I’m a disciple of that sect.”

Alex couldn’t help but gasp when he heard the name.

Blue Silk sect was one of the biggest sects in the entire Myriad Spirit World. After all, it was the sect that governed the Blue Silk Continent, the very continent Alex was in at the moment.

Alex nodded. “I will,” he said. He felt no anger or hatred for the man leaving him. After all, he had never been in the equation for him to even consider helping him leave this place.

Tonight’s events had happened suddenly after all.

“I’ll see you later,” Elder Lan said and lifted his talisman.

What should have been a flash of light next was instead dust and smoke. The wall next to Alex and Elder Lan had come down as if something had attacked them.

Alex managed to protect himself in time and moved away. Elder Lan moved back as well, the talisman in his hand still unused.

Alas, it was too late now.

Two of the three sect masters had come into the alchemy room and were staring directly at Alex and Elder Lan.
