Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

The First stage of the Undying God's Physique allowed its user to heal any wounds on his body in a matter of seconds, so long as the user had Qi in his body.

The Second stage of the Undying God's Physique allowed its user to heal any major wounds, be it amputation, decapitation, or even crippling, so long as there was Qi in his body.

The Third Stage of the Undying God's Physique allowed its user to heal their entire body so long as the soul survived in some form.

There were in total Four stages to the Undying God's Physique.

Alex felt a sudden feeling of ascension as his Dantian fully healed and he returned to the state of a cultivator once again. The excess Qi in his body finally moved back to his Dantian, and he felt it being affected by the Yang Source and Yin bead inside of his Dantian.

They had laid dormant in him when all Qi had left him.

"What?" a surprised voice came from inside his mind. "What is happening? Kid? Are you okay? Can you hear me?"

Alex's head hurt slightly from having to bear the spiritual attacks of the beast core he ate, but he was happy enough that he could ignore it all.

"Godslayer!" he shouted excitedly in his mind. "How are you? Is everything okay in there?"

"I'm okay," Godslayer said softly. "Were you unconscious all this time? I couldn't see much of what was happening."

"Unconscious?" Alex chuckled a bit. "No, I was crippled. I had lost my cultivation base. Thankfully I have the Undying God's physique so I'm safe now."

"Oh, and what was that—"

"I'm sorry, I'll talk to you later. I need to deal with my problems first," Alex said and ignored Godslayer for the moment. He started focusing on his cultivation base to see if there were any problems.

He immediately brought out all sorts of pills and started eating them one after another to heal himself. Fortunately, there were no major issues that couldn't be fixed with a week or two of dedicated cultivation.

Zhou Linfan watched Alex from the side with eyes as wide as saucers. He couldn't believe what he had just witnessed at all.

Just one moment ago, the young man before him was sweating buckets for some reason, and then the next moment he suddenly had a cultivation base of Saint Soul's 4th realm.

It was incredibly weak at the moment as if he had used up all his Qi, but the cultivation base was obvious to anyone who knew what to look for.

'I thought him surviving after eating the core alone would've been an amazing sight,' he thought. 'But he somehow got his cultivation base back? How the hell is that even possible?'

The old man had seen Alex do the impossible before, but they were small impossibilities. This one was too large to be ignored at all.

He was sure there were people out there who would come to try and kill him just to get this one secret from him.

"How did you do it, young man?" Zhou Linfan asked Alex. "How are you no longer a cripple? Here I was excited to see you heal your dantian, but I never expected to see this."

"I was never going to get back to cultivation," Alex said. "I always planned on getting my cultivation back instead. What I did has to do with my physique too and won't work for everyone though."

"Is this physique learnable or were you born with it?" the old man asked with an incredible look on his face.

"It's what I was born with," Alex lied. He didn't want to give the old man hopes in the best-case scenario, or ideas in the worst.

"What an incredible body you were born with then," the old man said. "What else can you do?"

"I'm sorry, senior, but I'll need to cultivate for a while now. I've only just gained my cultivation base, but my Qi and spirit are still weak. Would you mind if we delay this talk to some other time?"

"Oh, ah… sure," the old man said. "I'll wait for you to be done then."

"Thank you," Alex said and teleported to a different location on the island where he settled and started cultivating once again.

As he had said, his cultivation base was indeed very weak, so he had to eat a cultivation pill and start cultivating. As for his spirit, he had just eaten a spirit pill, and that would aid his spirit on its own.

Alex used the Five Yang Divine Path to quickly cultivate using Yang Qi and used some of his attention to look at his nascent soul that was in his Dantian and then his Soul Space.

His Nascent Soul had been weak but not so weak that there was any danger. As for his Soul Space, it never faced any problem at all.

Even if Alex had died, the Soul Space would've remained there for someone else to take, or for the Void to consume it sometime in the future.

As he cultivated, the grade of his Qi increased once again. Then, he took the opportunity to go visit Godslayer inside of his Spiritual Sea.

Surprisingly, Godslayer did not know what had happened to Alex at all. The last thing Godslayer had seen was Alex getting attacked, and because he hadn't died, he had assumed Alex to be unconscious.

The darkness he faced in here alone was not similar to when Alex had his head blown off, so the sword spirit wasn't very worried this whole time.

However, after finding out what had indeed happened to Alex, he was surprised he hadn't known it at all.

"Undying God's physique? Is that incredible? I thought it only healed your wounds and such," the sword spirit said.

"It heals my dantian too. I wasn't confident it would return my cultivation base to what it was, but I'm glad it did," Alex said.

Godslayer scoffed. "If it can return your dantian to how it was before, then of course your cultivation base will return to the same as well. After all, your cultivation base is based on the strength of your dantian, and the other various situations in your body such as the status of your soul, the status of your Immortal spirit, and such."

"Immortal Spirit?" Alex asked curiously.

"You'll find out soon enough. Focus on healing for now," Godslayer said. "Oh, and thank that kid on my behalf. We both might've died if not for him."

Alex smiled and nodded. "I will," he said and went back out.

Once he was out, it was time to do as Godslayer said.

Alex called out to Pearl.

Pearl came back out with blood and wounds all over his body and fur. The white car looked more red than white now and was so wounded that he could barely stand up straight.

Alex immediately took out a healing pill and fed it to Pearl before taking him into an embrace.

"B-brother?" Pearl asked in a low voice that was full of surprise.

"You can take it easy Pearl. You did well. You saved me," Alex said as he held onto the White Tiger tighter.

"Thank you."
