Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy Chapter 2182 Still No Answer

Alex held a sword before him.

It was not Midnight, nor was it one of the many other swords he used in his Sword Array. This was a sword that he could not use, except physically.

This was the sword where he found Godslayer.

The thin silver sword was made up of a tal he did not recognize. He had spent a few days in Madhamr's smithy, spending most of his ti trying to just learn about the different materials, how they could be handled, and what they could be mixed with.

He had shown Alex a lot of rare tals, including the ones that he was going to have to choose from to buy to reforge Midnight.

Soulheart Gold was gold that nearly glowed with its own light. Skyborn Platinum held a deep aura of wind. Tyrant Iron was a particularly strong iron that could not be rusted and was extrely hard to work with otherwise.

Alex had to choose from them to reforge Midnight, but at the mont, they were all very much expensive for him to even consider it.

If they could be graded, each one of those tals would be considered Divine grade. So to even begin with, the conversation for those tals would start in the millions of Spirit stones.

While he had a few million spirit stones at the mont, he needed many more to buy enough tal to fuse with the tons of Starforged Tungsten he had compounded into Midnight.

Instead of imdiately buying that tal, he had decided to learn everything he could about forging weapons that he could from an experienced Artifact master like Madhamr.

So, after learning about all the various new tals, he decided to see what this one was made of. So, he sat down and pulled out the sword.

And yet, after minutes of careful observation, Alex had absolutely no idea what this tal was. The silver color of the blade was different enough from any silver variant that he had seen in the smithy that he could not figure out what the tal was.

It was understandable that he didn't recognize what this tal was so easily. After all, it was a weapon that had been capable of handling sothing as strong as pri Godslayer. To be able to be a prison for Godslayer, soone who had killed dozens of gods, if not more, the sword had to be made up of so rare material that Madhamr simply didn't have to teach Alex about.

The sword was weirder in more ways than just that. It was sharp to a point where it was uncanny how regular tal could get that sharp. Other than that, it had to belong to the gods, so the way they had refined the sword had made it impossible for Alex to refine it for himself.

Hell, he couldn't even put any of his Qi inside of the sword. It rejected it entirely.

Other than that, when refining various items inside his soul space to feed mory, Alex had tried to see if he could do anything to this sword. Alas, not a single thing happened to the sword at all.

It didn't even heat up at all. It was the most bizarre thing Alex had seen.

He very much wanted to learn more about this sword, to see if this sword could perhaps be lted down at so point in the future when he was much stronger. If he could, could he add it to Midnight?

That was what Alex looked forward to.

"I wonder if the Artifact God forged this," Alex wondered. Not that he knew if one existed. He was simply guessing at it. People in the Immortal realm did not talk about gods openly at all.

Alex very much considered showing the sword to Madhamr and asking him if he knew what the tal was and if it could work with Midnight. But then, there would be complications he would have to face there that he was not ready for.

Ignoring the fact that the sword was so incredible, the fact that it hosted Godslayer might have been a general enough knowledge that if they saw the sword, they would report it to a god imdiately.

And the closest god would be the Alchemy God, who he definitely did not want snooping around in his mind or soul space. Even if Madhamr didn't recognize the sword, he may be aware of where the tal ca from and that would be another issue. Or, he may not recognize the tal entirely, in which case it would all be a waste of ti and he would be taking the risk for no reason at all.

In the end, Alex decided to not ask Madhamr about it. If anything, Godslayer could probably answer that question when he was done cultivating the enormous cloud of Death and Darkness aura he had gathered around in Alex's Spiritual sea.

He rembered asking Godslayer the sa question a long ti ago, but he was such a moody sword spirit at the ti that he gave no straight answer at all.

But he had changed a lot since then, improving quite a lot. He was more than ready to answer his questions now.

But… when would Godslayer wake up next?

Alex left his room soti later and walked outside of the area in the smithy where Madhamr stayed. He was going to be here for a month, so he had gotten a small room for himself.

He waited for nearly an hour before Madhamr walked out.

"Greetings, senior."

"You're here. Have you learned everything I assigned to you?" Madhamr asked.

"I have learned everything," Alex said.

"Great, then we shall start so physical exercises today. Let's see you make a sword. I want to see what you are capable of exactly."

Alex nodded and followed the man.

The walked back to the workshop where the cacophony of tal hitting tal, tal sizzling in hot water or oil, and the general chaos of a working place with a lot of people sounded all around him.

The place was hot, not just because there were furnaces running all day long, but also because there were many veins of lava that flowed through the workshop that were used by formations to help heat up the furnaces.

It helped save a lot of energy on producing heat, which was the main source of energy usage in the workshop.

They walked through the workshop until they arrived at a part where a man was standing outside of the furnace, watching the tals lt in a crucible.

"Senior!" the man quickly greeted.

The old man nodded. "What is in the furnace?" he asked.

"Goldsteel," the man said.

"You are making a sword, are you not?" Madhamr asked.

"Ah, yes I am," the man replied.

"Give the details."

The man brought out a talisman and handed it over. Madhamr looked through the talisman and handed it over to Alex next.

"Read through this. When the tals are lted enough, you will make this sword."

Alex looked at the talisman and saw a rather intricate sword with Qi lines noted down in detail. Everything he needed was there.

He nodded. "Understood, senior."
