Chapter 688: 688 Help

Chapter 688 Help　　Alex was out in one of the uninhabited mountains of the Flowing Brush with his mother. 

They had flown here because his mother insisted that she wanted to find some ingredients for some ink. Alex decided to use this opportunity to train his mother in some techniques.

Over the last month, he had scoured the depths of his mind to remember the techniques he had read back when he first got them. He had noted down most that he remembered.

While he couldn't note down the one in the Human language since he wouldn't be able to translate it for his mother, he did note down the other ones.

Most importantly, he noted down 3 particular techniques.

Immortal Concealment technique, Veiled light technique, and finally, Flickering Shadow technique.

He was a little sad that he didn't get to note down Heaven's Impact as that would have perhaps been the best of them all, but this would have to do as well.

Aside from that, he had also noted down the few defensive techniques he knew. As for offensive techniques, Alex couldn't think of many he had that his mother could use.

Most of his elemental techniques were, to put it mildly, bad. Some of them like his metal techniques and yang palm technique took advantage of his Supreme Spiritual roots which his mother did not have and could likely never have.

Unless he learned how to acquire them by himself.

He had no water technique. His fire technique was something he learned before he had established his spiritual sense, and his wood technique was a sword technique, which his mother likely couldn't use.

Alex thought it was better to give her whatever sect master Qin had in mind for her.

For now, he decided to focus on defense and evasion.

Alex looked at his mother who picked a ripe blackberry from the vine and put it in a jar of sorts.

"Come behind me," he said. As soon as she heard that, it took her 2 seconds to get everything in order and teleport right behind him where his shadow lay.

"You're getting better," Alex said. "But you should be able to do even more so."

"I know," Helen said dejectedly. "But my meridians aren't wide enough to send my Qi through it."

Alex sighed. Since his mother wasn't a fighter or dealt with something that required constant pouring of Qi like he had to with Alchemy, she hadn't used her meridians anytime aside from cultivation.

So, they weren't flexible enough to let her move her Qi.

'I could stress her meridians, but I don't have any way to heal them afterward,' he thought. They weren't tough like his own so if he by some chance ruptured her meridian, he wouldn't be able to heal her back as easily.

'I need a lot of knowledge about the human body, especially cultivator before I dare do anything risky with my mother,' he thought.

Then he thought of something else. 'Can I find the Divine Devil's fruit somewhere?' he wondered. 

If he found that, he could easily get his mother to go through Mortal Cleansing, in which case her meridians would naturally become more flexible and her Qi would flow easily.

"I'll do something about that soon," He told his mother. 

It required his mother to go through 3 different mountains before she found what she was looking for. During this time, he helped her train a lot. 

Not just him, even Pearl helped her a lot. Alex let her know that she was ready for a breakthrough after such long training.

Alex wondered if he himself was. He knew he could easily breakthrough, but was 3 months of doing nothing helpful in any way?

At that very moment, he decided to go back to the Eastern mountain ranges sometime again to improve himself. 

'I should go there within the next month, I've put off my training for far too long,' he said to himself.

Once the mother-son duo was done with their task, they returned back to the sect.

At that time, they found the sect master waiting for them outside their home.

"Master, why are you here?" she asked. "Do you need something?" 

"Yes, your son," he said and turned to Alex. "Junior Yu, do you have any antidote pills?" 

He had started calling Alex, Yu Ming as per his request, so that others didn't accidentally know of his name and connect that with him being a player.

While players were already largely integrated into the society, Alex still felt some paranoia about the fact. He didn't want people meddling in his business and trying to hurt him or kidnap him to use him.

His body was way too unique to go around letting everyone know of his origins.

What he feared most perhaps was someone picking his brain like Zexi did, only this time successfully. The amount of information they could learn that would destroy him and the calm 5th continent was staggering.

Alex nodded to the Sect master's question and asked, "is it for someone in the True realm?"

"No, common," the old man said.

"I see," Alex said as he quickly brought one out. "What happened?" 

"Sigh, there is some poison grass growing on the mountains now. Some of the disciples get scratched by it and end up becoming poisoned from time to time," he said.

"I see," Alex said. "Still I didn't expect you to come personally for something like that."

"I wouldn't," the sect master said. "But the other elders couldn't find you, so I came down looking myself. I didn't know you had gone out."

"Yes, mother needed something," he said. "Actually, should you be wasting time on this idle conversation?"

"Right, I'll see you later," the old man said and flew off. 

Alex checked his storage bag and realized he was a little low on antidotes. He also had a duty to the sect as a guest elder.

So, he decided to fulfill it by making a bunch of antidotes and healing pills for both Common realm and True realm cultivators.

He looked to the sky and realized that it was only mid-afternoon.

'Sigh, I don't have any ingredients on me for antidotes and healing pills,' he thought to himself.

"Mother, I will go to the city and make some pills for the sect. I'll see you later," Alex said and went away.

Alex arrived at the Alchemy guild some 15 minutes later. The moment he entered, the receptionists that were working bowed towards him in greeting.

They were well aware of the fact that he was one of the 3 greatest alchemists in the entire city.

Alex brought out a talisman he himself had made and note down a bunch of ingredients and amounts.

"Can you guys help me get these? Are there any that aren't in stock?" he asked.

The receptionist girl who Alex talked to looked over the ingredients with what they had and answered, "We are a little short on Bitter Thorns, we have about 10 of them. Aside from that, everything else is in stock."

"Can you help me buy them all? Use the spirit stones that are under my name," Alex said.

"Yes, Alchemist Yu," the girl said and did something with the formation in front of her, and soon he could see the storage bag in front of the receptionist fill up.

The ingredients were being transferred. Once it was done, she handed the storage bag to him and Alex checked. 

Everything was in order.

"Thank you," he said and turned to leave.

"Alchemist Yu, wait," the receptionist cried out, stopping him mid-walk. 

Alex turned around with a confused look. "What's wrong?" he asked.

"There's someone here to meet you," she said.

"Meet me?" Alex asked.

"Well, not exactly you, but a True Heaven alchemist. Since you are the only one here, I can only have you meet them," she said.

"I see," Alex nodded. "Who wants to see True Heaven alchemists?" 

The girl pointed her finger to two figures that sat on the bench in the corner of the guild.

Alex followed the finger and was surprised to learn that he recognized both of them.

He walked off and quickly arrived in front of them.

"May I ask what sister Liang and sister Han want from this lowly alchemist?" Alex asked.

The two girls that were sitting inconspicuously, turned their heads to look at him. When they saw his badge, their eyes shined.

"We need your help."
