Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy
670 Teleportation
Alex found a caravan that was ready to leave. He found the owner, a short man with an amicable face, and asked if he could go with them.
He even let him know that he was strong and could help him defend if it was required.
When the man heard Alex's cultivation realm, he gave a weird look.
"Sir, I don't think you want to come with us right? Surely we aren't worth your time," the owner said.
"What do you mean? You won't take me?" Alex looked at the caravan owner with a suspicious look.
"Um sir, it's not that I won't take you, but rather are you sure you want to come with us? It's a little suspicious you would even want to, you know," the caravan owner said.
Alex was a little confused. Why was the caravan owner so adamant about not letting him go with them if he did realize that he was strong.
Was he afraid that he would rob them?
"What's so suspicious about me wanting to go with you guys?" Alex asked.
"Um, why would you want to take the slow ride with us that will take half a month to reach our destination, when you can get there just like that?" he asked.
Alex's eyes narrowed. "What do you mean? You know that no matter how strong of a cultivator I am, it will still take me some time, right?" he asked.
"Oh, I'm not talking about you going by yourself. I'm talking about you using the teleportation formation in the city. As a cultivator, you should be able to afford it right?" the owner asked. "Of course, if you are lacking spirit stones then I will surely accept you into the caravan."
Alex stopped in his tracks. "Teleportation formations?" he looked confused. "Are you telling me that I can directly teleport to somewhere else from this place?" Alex asked.
"Yes, of course. Brightstar had a formation made not too long ago. Sir must not have known this," the owner said.
'Tsk, my lack of knowledge about this empire is showing. Once I reach my destination, I will have to shut myself to a library and learn as much as I can,' he thought.
'I would've likely figured it out very soon if I hadn't been literally taken away from the very second city I ever visited,' he thought to himself.
"Thank's for letting me know," Alex said and went back to the city.
The sun was still on the verge of rising, and from what the people said, the teleportation formation apparently only started at around 9 in the morning.
Until then, Alex decided to learn more about the teleportation formations.
According to the book he found, the formations were placed in almost every major city in the Luminance empire.
Then, every day the formation would work once every hour to teleport about 50 people to a destination at once.
There could not be more people in the formation, and if you were too slow to join, you would have to wait until the next day.
That scared Alex a bit. He needed to go register right now then.
So, he found the location of the formation and was let know that there were more than enough openings for him to choose from.
Alex found out that he couldn't directly go to the Radiant city as it was too far away, and instead he had to go through multiple cities to reach the capital.
Alex looked at the shortest route and took it.
This would've caused him problems under normal circumstances, but since people were all leaving the capital, rather than going towards it now that the Talisman competition had ended, he had easier times.
Alex looked at the shortest route, as written on the wall for him.
From Brightstar city, he would have to go to Springmist city at 10 in the morning. From there, he would have the opportunity to take another teleportation formation to Lightborn city around noon.
Finally, around 3 in the afternoon, he would be able to go to the Radiant city.
That was the route he would take for now. If by any chance, either one of the pathways was already full, he would have to either wait for an entire day or take the other longer routes.
Alex nodded once he learned it and paid the man exactly 46 True spirit stones. He couldn't have expected that it would cost such an amount to travel about a thousand kilometers, but it was well worth it considering how instant it was.
Once it was time to leave, Alex was finally let inside the building along with 40 or so other people.
He found two teleportation platforms and from research knew that one of those was meant for sending people away, while the other one was meant for receiving people.
Having the same formation be used for both tasks would have been extra taxing to it, and would even cause problems during transportation if either of the teleports was already in use.
So, they had decided to create two.
Once everyone was ready, both teleportation formations glowed at once. Alex saw the people appear in the other formation before he was teleported away.
When he reappeared, he was standing on the receiving circle while the sending circle was empty.
He walked out of the formation and immediately went to purchase his spot for the next teleportation at noon.
Since he had the time, Alex left the place and went around the city for the next 2 hours.
He walked around the city and was starting to see more and more Lightsworns. He could only wonder how many there were in the capital.
'Right, what do I need to do to join their ranks again?' he wondered and went to the library to learn a bit about the Lightsworns.
From what he found out, he had to take some tests to be eligible to become one. Some of which included being in the True realm at a young age.
"I can do tests," he thought. All he had to hope for was that his lack of arm wasn't taken as a detriment to his ability as a cultivator.
Once the sun hit its zenith, Alex returned back to the building with the formation. It was time to leave the Springmist city and go to the Lightborn city.
Lightborn city was about the same distance away from Springmist city as Brightstar, so it once again cost him about the same price as well.
'50 True Spirit stones,' Alex thought to himself. With 50 people using the formation at once, they must earn about 2500 True spirit stones every hour under normal circumstances.
The formation started glowing bright and after a few seconds, he disappeared. When he reappeared, he was in a similar building, but a different one.
He looked to the side to see the people on the other teleportation formation disappear.
'I have 3 hours now,' Alex thought and went out.
The Lightborn city was close to the capital and was quite crowded due to it being one of the bigger cities in the empire.
According to his small research, aside from some small clans and sects, the Broken Ravine sect had its roots just outside of this city.
On the other hand, the Jin family, one of the 7 great families had their ancestral grounds in this city.
Alex remembered Jin Tengfei and his Sword Qi. He was so strong with it, and now Alex had it as well.
'I wonder if my sword Qi is just as strong as his,' Alex thought. Around the city, he heard instances of people talking about how great the Talisman competition had been. Alex heard the name Tian Ye as someone who won the competition.
Alex couldn't help but remember the fatty from the secret realm.
He roamed the city for a bit longer before returning to the building with the formations.
Finally, he was going to go to Radiant city.
Alex stood on the formation and waited for it to activate. Once the people filled it, it started to shine
Soon, Alex felt the aura of teleportation grab him and in the next moment, along with everyone else, he vanished.
When he appeared out of the formation, he once again turned to look at the other formation circle that was full of people ready to leave.
Just then, he caught sight of a lady a split second before the teleportation took her away. However, that sight alone was enough to send waves of shock and surprise through him.
After all, the lady that had just left looked exactly like...
"Mother?"
