Chapter 2229 Techniques for Momo Momo was absolutely ecstatic to see all the different robes she could purchase. According to her, the robes they got to wear in the orphanage were mostly static colors with little to no design at all. Seeing all the flowery prints on the robes made her so much happy. It was a small thing for anyone else, but for her, it was the greatest thing she had gotten in a long time. Alex wondered if she somehow found this even better than the cultivation base she had reached. He bought some of the robes she chose and went around getting a few other things she would need. Some formation plates, a cauldron, some talismans, empty bottles for pills, a pill tester, and a few other things. Alex bought a few such things for himself as well as he needed them all. They didn't return to the place they were staying at but instead went to find a much more decent place. Since he was very much richer at this point, he wanted to have Momo and Pearl stay in a better place. He finally found a decent place in the sea of filled courtyards and took residence there. It cost him 1000 Immortal spirit stones per year to stay there, and it wasn't even one of the better places in the cities. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖 Still, Alex was happy to have found it. It was a 10-room courtyard, part of a large collection of courtyards, each filled and protected by many different formations. The rooms inside were large and open. Once they walked inside, Momo was more than surprised to realize that she was going to stay in such an amazing place for over a year. She was more than excited to see how far she could cultivate in this time. She went around to look through all the rooms before returning back to where Alex and Pearl were. "Master, now that we're here and you've bought me pills and ingredients, when do I learn how to make pills?" she asked. Alex shook his head. "Not yet," he said. The girl hadn't expected the response. She was certain Alex would happily teach her now that her cultivation base was so much higher. She had fully expected herself to be ready. "Am I not ready yet?" she asked. "No, not ready," Alex said. Momo got a little dejected upon hearing that answer. She thought for a bit and nodded. "It must be because my Qi isn't strong enough to control the pill. You taught me that one needed stronger Qi to control the pill's energy. I understand, master. I will not try to learn how to make pills until I'm in… Meridian tempering realm." Momo got a little dejected upon hearing that answer. She thought for a bit and nodded. "It must be because my Qi isn't strong enough to control the pill. You taught me that one needed stronger Qi to control the pill's energy. I understand, master. I will not try to learn how to make pills until I'm in… Meridian tempering realm." "That's not a bad idea," Alex said. "Less chance of danger." Momo nodded and showed a satisfied look. "Then I can begin learning about the ingredients, Master? You said we need to know all we can about ingredients. The sooner I begin, the better right?" "Yes," Alex said. "But you won't be learning that right now either." "Huh? Why not?" Momo asked. "Because you are not ready yet," Alex said. "Not ready yet to just learn?" Alex nodded. "Then… do I just keep cultivating?" she asked. "And practice some other techniques. I will write you some fighting techniques. Test them out with Pearl when you have the chance for it," Alex said. Momo didn't know what to say. She wanted to tell Alex that he was making a mistake by not starting to teach her immediately, but then… how was she to know what she should learn right away and what she shouldn't? Alex spent a few minutes writing down 3 techniques for her to learn. The first of the three techniques was a movement technique, the greatest he had learned during his own start of cultivation. The Flickering Shadows technique. By now, he knew what her strengths were, having tested her spiritual roots. Of the 5 she had, the strongest ones were Yin and Earth, with Wood that was okay, and Fire and Yang that was a little worse. They were not the worst, but they were not the best either. Good thing Alex had recipes to improve her Spiritual roots, but she would have to wait until she was in the Saint realm for that. The second technique he wrote down for her was the Jade Body technique. It was a great defensive technique for her to learn with her superior Earth spiritual root. For the last technique, he decided to teach her the Flame Mastery technique. It was easily one of the best techniques he had ever learned, and given the fact that it made Alchemy so much easier if one had learned it, it was a no-brainer for Alex to teach her this. He wrote down the 3 and handed it to her. "Try and see if you can read anything with your spirit alone," he said. "You will have to place your talisman on your forehead to read it." "Hmm…" Momo took the talisman and pasted it on her forehead before closing her eyes. She gasped and opened her eyes. "I saw it master. The words. I could read them." Alex laughed a little. "Great. Now read them all and learn what you can. I will leave Pearl with you during that time." "Okay," Momo said as she read through the talismans. Alex took out a small bottle and presented it to Momo. "Cut your finger and pour some blood in here." "Hmm?" she looked up, confused. "Why?" "I just need a bit of your blood," Alex said. "Okay…" she said, hesitating to cut her finger. Alex created a single sword Qi, and before the girl even realized it, blood dripped from her fingertips directly onto the bottle. "Aah!" she screamed a bit, feeling the pain. "I was going to do it myself—" Her eyes slowly widened in shock when she saw the small wound on her body heal on its own. "H-how did I just…" "Cultivators heal faster than the average humans," Alex said. "Especially when the wound you have is not something where you are missing flesh, it heals even faster. There is also a matter of Intent on who wants to wound you, but understanding that won't matter to you right now." "At Common realm, you can easily heal from simple cuts like that. In the True realm, you can heal from major wounds. In the Saint realm, you can heal even missing limbs. In the Immortal realm, you can easily regrow any missing body part and won't die even if your entire body is gone. Although, that is another matter entirely." Momo stared at her fingertips for a bit. "Why did you take my blood though?" she asked. "Am I sick or something, master?" "No, I'm testing for something else," Alex said, pausing for a moment before giving a small smile. "Pearl will teach you about Bloodline, Body constitutions, and physiques very soon. Okay?" That was another new thing for her to learn. "Are you not going to teach me anything yourself, master?" she asked. "At this rate, I might just call Uncle Pearl my master." Alex could hear the sadness and disappointment in her voice. It sounded heartbreaking.
