Alex had nearly burst out with his surprise but thankfully managed to keep it all within him. Pearl seed surprised by the information as well. Despite how long they had been together, it seed the information hadn't been brought up just yet in his presence either.
'Godkiller's Tomb?' Alex thought. 'Why would he have a tomb? He didn't die. He left this world with Bai Jingshen and the Divination god. How could he have a tomb?'
Silvermist continued talking as though he hadn't said the most absurd thing Alex had ever heard. "Was that disciple good in Alchemy?" he asked Snowleaf.
"Not great at the mont, but a lot of talent. I swear, senior brother, we could make him a Pri Alchemist in just a millennia from scratch. He might not end up winning the tournant, but I fear he might be exactly the sort of person the Alchemy God was searching for."
Silvermist grunted. "Damn, Wineweed. I can't believe he found a ticket to the tomb as well," he said
Snowleaf nodded. "I hear he paid a lot to get that ticket, but I can't guarantee."
Silvermist grumbled. "The next ti, I'm going to go," he declared.
"Master," Alex called, finally finding the ti to speak. "What… is this Tomb you're talking about?"
"It's nothing important to you right now," Silvermist said. "It's just so godlike figure from the past who died and left behind an inheritance. Every 1000 years, his tomb opens up and people can go inside to see what treasure they can find, and see if they can be the Godkiller's Inheritor."
Alex nodded with no outward emotion, but on the inside, his heart was racing wildly.
'This is it,' he thought. 'This is absolutely it.'
Bai Jingshen had always ntioned an inheritance from his master that was sowhere in the Immortal world. He had ntioned that he believed that Alex was most likely the one that the Godkiller had been waiting for.
The one he would impart the Truth to. This was where he had to go.
"Where is this place? This tomb," Alex asked.
"In the Three Jewel world," Snowleaf answered.
"Three Jewel World?" Alex asked, quickly going through his ntal map of the Immortal lands.
The Three Jewel land was unfortunately in the exact opposite direction of where he was going. He could reach there in 2 teleportation from the Myriad Spirit World, while it would take 3 teleportation to go to the Sky God's Palace.
There were 5 total teleportations between the two lands.
That was such a long distance away. Would he make it there in ti ever?
"I'm sorry, how often did you say it opened, master?" Alex asked.
"A thousand years," Silvermist answered.
Alex felt slightly relieved. He had plenty of ti it seed. No need to hurry.
'I can make it to all the places in ti,' Alex thought, feeling relieved. He could go to the Sky God's Palace then back to the Blue Silk sect and then to the Three Jewel world in ti should he find his family.
"I need tickets. Can I purchase it or how does that work?" Alex asked.
"The tickets get taken away when you enter the tomb. Then it gets randomly distributed throughout the entire world, into every Immortal realm. If you are lucky, you get one. If you are even more lucky, you find soone who is willing to sell. You have to be very rich for that though."
"For now, forget about the tomb and focus on your cultivation and alchemy studies," Snowleaf said. "Try to impress the Alchemy God and maybe you will get a lot of good things. At least that is more of a guarantee than whatever you could possibly hope to find from the tomb."
Alex didn't argue with Snowleaf and simply nodded.
"Anyway, let's forget about the tomb," Silvermist said. "Disciple, are you ready to leave?"
"More or less," Alex said. "Are we leaving soon?"
"In 2 months," Silvermist said. "Go prepare for departure."
Alex's eyes widened. "In 2 months?" he asked. "Really?"
He knew he would have to leave soon, but not this soon. How was he supposed to leave right away? He hadn't beco a Supre Alchemist yet.
"Is there a problem?" Snowleaf asked.
"A small one," Alex said. "I'm trying to be a Supre Alchemist, and I might need a little more ti than that."
"Oh. I'm sorry, but you don't have that ti," Silvermist said. "The Inter-realm Teleportation formation to the Eclipsing Heaven realm will be used in 2 months. We will have to be in the Rosesteel Continent by then."
"What about the Divine Sanctuary realm?" Alex asked.
"Missed it by a year," Silvermist said. "We asked. It won't be used for another 9 years, and I'm not willing to wait for that long."
Alex grimaced.
Silvermist thought for a mont. "If becoming a Supre Alchemist here is that important to you, we can delay our departure until you are done with it. However, at that point, we will have to use our direct teleportation talisman to go to dicine World. We cannot take any detours like you suggested."
"No," Alex said quickly. 'No. We will go to the Eclipsing Heaven in 2 months. I won't miss it for the world."
Becoming a Supre Immortal Alchemist was important, but not as important as finding his family. He would rather be a naless, worthless Alchemist if it ant he found his family.
Still, it just didn't sit right with him that he couldn't be a Supre Alchemist. It was a matter of pride that he couldn't simply push away.
No. One way or another, he was going to beco a Supre Alchemist. It wasn't as though he had to leave right away either. He had ti.
'2 months, huh?' he thought. He was close to reaching the requirent set for him by Pri Alchemist Liang. So once he reached it, he could get approved for the test and finally take the test.
That ant for the next few weeks, he had to work as hard as he could.
