Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 290: Natural Law of the Body


Chapter 290: Natural Law of the Body

Alex and Wan Li walked over to Ma Rong's room and joined the meeting.

"Alright, everyone is here right?" Ma Rong asked as she looked around and nodded to herself seeing everyone there.

"First of all, let us celebrate us reaching the 1st grade as a sect. Congratulations to everyone who helped make it happen," Ma Rong said and started clapping.

Everyone followed and soon there were smiles and cheers amongst the disciples. Now that they were a 1st-grade sect, they had a better reputation in the land and more young folks would decide to join the Hong Wu sect leading to them joining the sect.

"We needed 523 points to enter the first grade, and from what I calculated… we have actually reached 594 points as of today. The alchemy competitions helped, but the rest of you who took poison, formations, and talisman competitions also helped quite a bit."

"So, thank you to everyone who took part and helped us go a level higher as a sect," Ma Rong said. Everyone was smiling at her mentions. Ma Rong let them celebrate for a little while before continuing.

"Now, on to the second part of today's meeting. Since Yu Ming and Wan Li decided to skip out on tomorrow's competition, who wants to enter as the third person along with Meimei and Fanfan?" Ma Rong asked.

A few people raised their hands and Ma Rong chose a male disciple who was good at learning as that was tomorrow's theme.

She then asked what other people wanted to do. She got a few answers but in the end, everyone decided to wait until they saw tomorrow's competition before agreeing.

Ma Rong thought that was for the best and dismissed the group.

Alex and Wan Li returned back to their room and Alex immediately went to log out.

'Sigh, tomorrow's going to be kind of boring,' he thought. There wasn't anything really happening in tomorrow's competition that he was either taking part in or looked forward to.

So, nothing about tomorrow's events attracted him.

He got out of the capsule and commented to himself how he was still not feeling any hunger or need to go to the bathroom.

'That is really weird. I really hope it's okay and the doctors and scientists didn't mess up the tests,' he thought.

He went to the bathroom to freshen up a bit but that was useless. Inside the capsule, there was the perfect temperature and was hidden to the outer environment, so he never sweat or got dirt on him.

Still, he freshened himself and got out. He wanted to go eat something but he just wasn't hungry.

'Sigh, let me check if it's really okay,' he thought and went online to check again just to be sure there weren't any bad complaints.

There were complaints as one would expect. People just weren't getting hungry, but nothing was physically wrong with people.

And the only suggestion for them was… don't play. That was not something people were going to do. Still, some people were really happy regarding what was happening.

They could go on for nearly 2 days with a single meal. That was a lot of money saved for people who needed to spend quite a lot on food.

Alex wondered if he should go eat, but didn't want to feel uncomfortable, so he simply decided to skip today's dinner. However, he did decide on one thing.

He was going to use the helmet for today. He wasn't sure if it was necessarily a good idea or not, but he decided that he wanted his hunger back, so he went to his bed, put on the helmet, and logged in.

Alex opened his eyes inside the game and nearly thought he was still in the real world because of how dull everything was.

He immediately activated focus mode and felt like he finally got his senses back. It was a little harder to control for some reason, but he very quickly got used to this focus mode as well.

'That… feels a little more… natural,' Alex thought. Even after the senses were amplified, it wasn't to the same level as the one from the capsule and honestly, it just felt like something he was able to use on a normal day even in the real world.

'The capsule one is a little too… amplified. This one is way better,' Alex thought. Still, he couldn't argue that the capsule one probably was more useful than this one.

He looked around and saw that Wan Li was back to writing as usual, totally focused on himself.

So, Alex also decided to focus on himself. He sneakily called out Pearl and hid him in his robes before starting to cultivate.

Before long, he was asleep.

Alex opened his eyes early in the morning. He looked around and saw that Wan Li was cultivating. 'That's new,' Alex thought. He had only ever seen him read and write.

'Maybe he cultivates during the night,' he thought.

He sent Pearl back to the tattoo and realized something was different. 'It's still night?' he thought as he looked outside.

He could see the sky light up a bit, but the sun had still yet to rise. 'Oh, I woke up earlier today,' he thought and looked at the time. It was 5:48 am in morning.

'Whatever, let's leave,' he thought and logged.

As soon as Alex logged out, he wasn't greeted with the usual dull sense like when he did from the capsule. Instead, he was greeted by 3 new senses, that he had honestly missed for the last 3 days.

He felt hunger and need to go to the bathroom for both number 1 and number 2. "Oh sh*t," he thought and quickly sprinted to the bathroom to relieve himself.

Once he was done, he went to the kitchen to eat something. He was really hungry, so he ended up eating two bowls of cereals by himself.

Once he was done, he went back to his room and got into the capsule. After that, he logged back in.
