Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

1449 Boundless Enlightenment Domain



Alex stood atop the stone formation, surrounded by his two elders while many other people gathered around as well.

He looked around at the formation to count the number of people there, and soon enough the number exceeded over 2 thousand.

A few people had noticed him and recognized him even before he got onto the formation, so when he was finally there, there were a lot of people that gossiped about him.

Each of the people there wore a talisman on their person, including Alex and the rest, and it was what the secret realm inside judged to see if you were eligible to stay there any longer.

Most people bought the talismans with a few days of eligibility in them. Alex and his elders had the special ones that allowed for infinite eligibility.

Alex ignored the people that gossiped and instead focused his attention on the other formation platform that was as of yet completely empty. He had expected people to be filling that up as well.

However, after thinking for a while, he came to the conclusion that this was a receiving formation and the people that had to leave the secret realm would be coming through that platform instead.

It was similar to the teleportation formations that were set up in the Luminance empire that he had used so many decades ago.

The formation started lighting up and everyone perked up. 

Alex let the teleportation formation gather around him and sooner than later, he was teleported to the other side.

When Alex arrived on the other side, he was in an outdoor space just like the place outside with people walking around them.

There were many people that were flying as well, but most of them were members of the military and were here to keep folks civil and have them follow the rules.

Alex and the Elders got off the platform and looked around at the weird realm.

The Boundless Enlightenment Domain was just as its name suggested, boundless. The secret realm was so large and so wide that Alex couldn’t even see it all easily.

The secret realm right from the start was separated into two sections from what Alex could see. 

One-half of the region was all about the elements. The 5 natural elements, the 2 higher elements, and a few other different types of auras one that a person could want to learn about covered one-half of the realm.

That would contain every single Dao pertaining to the elements.

On the other side was a region that was created specifically for the rest of the different dao and knowledge.

Alex looked around for a bit and nodded. “You guys don’t have to stick around me. Go and learn what you can. I will be fine,” he said.

“We can’t leave you alone,” Elder Liangg said.

“Will you be following me around to the alchemy section then?” he asked her. “I might stay there for the entire month.”

“Urgh! Fine. But remember to call us when it is time for you to leave,” Elder Liang said.

They left to their own choice of section, and Alex was free to roam the sections he wanted to. He thought for a bit about what he wanted to visit first.

Gaining Dao on Yang and Yin would be amazing if he could do it, but he wasn’t sure there would be enough knowledge on such important energy here.

Even if just to check, he decided to visit that section when he could.

The Fire section was useless for him. As for the Metal section, there were still quite a few things for him to learn so that was another place he wanted to visit.

“Ah, I should learn about Earth and Water too,” Alex thought. He had learned the Dao of Earth a few years ago, so wanted to see if there was anything else he could learn from it aside from the simple Dao.

As for the Water Dao, since he had a superior Water spiritual root, there was no harm in trying to check if he could learn that Dao as well.

He intended on visiting the Wood section as well, but there was little expectation in his heart that he was going to learn absolutely anything from there. At the very least, he wouldn’t learn anything from here unless he came up with the pill first.

He turned around toward the other region and sighed. ‘Will I even have time to visit that side?’ he wondered. With how little time he had here, he was certain that he would have to wait until after the Realm of Trials to go to that side.

After making his decision, he left for the Yang section of the Enlightenment domain.

There was a formation barrier set up around each and every single location to keep in the aura and stop it from degrading way too quickly. He had learned that the items inside of this domain were switched around every time the next Azure Dragon came around.

‘This must be at the worst stage possible then,’ Alex thought. 

His first visit was to a small glowing yellow rock that gave off yang energy. He stopped by it for a second and looked at it before coming to realize that he was looking at a Yang Jade.

Unlike the Yang Jade that he was used to finding back in the deserts beyond the Forbidden Fields, this one wasn’t made from yang-affected Spirit stones, and instead was a spirit vein that was partially consumed by Yang energy.

Taken away like this, it was pretty much the same thing now.

He felt the yang energy and sighed. It was just not strong at all. There wasn’t much he could learn from it and as a result, he had to leave that place.

The next 3 items, of which 2 were paintings, were also unable to evoke any feelings in Alex that he already wasn’t familiar with.

He walked over to the next location which was another painting. Alex looked at the painting and saw that the entire painting was all yellow, with no other colors present at all.

He was confused for a moment, but when he kept staring at it, he realized that the one massive yellow painting was actually a combination of many different shades of yellow, each barely distinct from the other one, but enough so that there was an actual image for one that could view it.

The image was of a simple man that sat cross-legged with a bright yellow sun in the sky.

Alex kept staring at it and started feeling slightly uncomfortable for a moment. He started feeling hot for some reason.

With the Dao of heat and a body that was from the god of Yang, he had rarely felt hot in a long time. And somehow the image in front of him was evoking that feeling. 

He stuck to the image to see if he could learn what was happening, but unfortunately, he couldn’t peer into the truth that was hidden in that painting.

After realizing that he couldn’t learn anything, Alex was forced to walk away from the painting, but not before making a mental note that he would return to this one.
