Chapter 2152 Alchemy God
"And the first Alchemy God was born there?" Alex asked.
"Yes," Silvermist answered absentmindedly. "That is where he gained fame and soon his fame covered the entire world. It was quite sudden from what I heard too."
"There were no Alchemy gods before him?" Alex asked.
"I don\'t believe so," Silvermist said. "But it could also be that there just hadn\'t been one for a very long time and people just forgot about the one that existed before. So, he was considered the first Alchemy God instead."
Alex nodded. He wanted to learn more about that man. Was he asking too many questions? Would they grow suspicious?
"I\'m surprised people remember where he was born," Alex said. "I would have assumed people forgot about him."
"The first Alchemy God? He wasn\'t born that long ago," Silvermist said. "Just around 250 thousand years ago. He would be slightly older than I am currently."
Alex was sure he heard his master wrong. "250 thousand years ago?" he asked, just to confirm.
Silvermist nodded.
Alex felt every understanding of the Alchemy god come crashing down around him. How could that possibly be? How could the first Alchemy God be barely older than his master?
"If he was still alive, he would be just as old as the current Alchemy God," Silvermist said.
Alex found that hard to believe for some reason. In his mind, the Alchemy God was a figure of the distant past. Sure, 250 thousand years ago was a long time, but to Divine realm cultivators, it wasn\'t that long.
Even Grimsight was older than that, away older.
\'If he is so much younger then why did Senior Yang say there is not much information about him?\' he wondered. Was he remembering correctly?
"How did he die?" Alex asked.
"In the war," Silvermist said in a solemn tone.
Alex frowned. He had heard the Alchemy God had been killed in the Eternal war, but why would a figure like the Alchemy God be in the war? Shouldn\'t someone like him remain in the backline, helping the soldiers with pills?
"Was he perhaps ambushed?" Alex asked.
"No one knows," Silvermist said. "I don\'t even know that much about this death scenario. I just know his corpse was found among the many that died in the battle that took place close to the Silver Soul realm."
"Do you know how long ago that was?" Alex asked.
Silvermist turned to Grimsight, waiting for him to answer.
"The Alchemy God… he must\'ve died some hundred thousand years before the war ended. Less than 200 thousand years, but not much." n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Huh?" Snowleaf was surprised to the side. "Wait, does that not make him only 50 thousand years old at his time of death? Was he that young?"
"Maybe a little more," Grimsight said. "But certainly no older than 80 thousand years ago."
The three began speaking and Alex was lost in his own thought at that very moment. Godslayer had once mentioned that he had killed an Alchemy God too. And considering the timeline of when the Saber God died, which was just about 200 thousand years ago, Godslayer was present when the Alchemy God was alive as well.
Godslayer didn\'t know which Alchemy God it was that he killed. He only knew that he killed one.
Had he really killed the first Alchemy God?
"Did the current Alchemy God take his place after the first one died?" Alex asked.
Silvermist laughed out loud at the ridiculousness of the question. "The current Alchemy God only became one about 60 thousand years ago. There have been multiple in between the two."
"Oh!" Alex said, feeling a sense of relief.
"But no one lasted for very long. They all either died or had someone surpass them," Silvermist said. "That was until His Majesty took upon the title. He might just be the greatest Alchemist to live."
Alex\'s eyes widened a little. "Even more so than the first one?" he asked.
Silvermist shrugged. "We only know he was good, but we don\'t really know how good he was," he said. "He was said to have been talented, but he was just a pioneer. Everything he has been able to do, everyone else has replicated it already. There might even be some people aside from the Alchemy God who are better than the first Alchemy God."
Alex frowned, clearly not believing those words. How could the man not be talented? Just the knowledge he left behind alone helped Alex become who he was now.
Everyone underestimated him, it seemed. \'Senior Yang was correct. Not much remains about the Alchemy god now.\'
Alex wanted to learn more.
"Will we ever go to God Origin and God\'s Domain? I wish to learn more about the gods," Alex said.
"You will. You have to," Silvermist said. "But in between your training sessions and cultivation breakthroughs. When you are done with your cultivation and need a little break, we\'ll go tour these places. Until then, you will have to work hard on the upcoming tournament. I cannot stress enough how important this is."
Alex nodded. It didn\'t need to be stressed. He understood how important it was for himself. It was a chance to be under the tutelage of the current Alchemy God. That put him one step closer to one of the treasures that belonged to the original Alchemy god.
The Book of Endless Recipes.
"Let\'s not waste any more time and head over to Trueflame Continent." Silvermist showed the way and the four of them quickly walked over to a close by teleportation formation that would take them to the Intercontinental Teleportation formation, which would then take them to the Trueflame Continent.
The Trueflame Continent lay in the west of the realm. They teleported there and then immediately took another teleportation formation to arrive at a city known as the Silvermist City.
When Alex first heard that, he wasn\'t sure if they were joking or not. But when he saw how the people around the teleportation formation treated him, he was certain that this was no joke.
The massive city was indeed named after his master.
Alex inquired about it and got a simple reason.
"I am easily the greatest alchemist in this continent," Silvermist said with great pride. "Why wouldn\'t they at least name a city after me."
Grimsight smiled a little at the side and leaned over to Alex to say, "He would be the greatest alchemist in the continent, if not for Wineweed, who has a city named after him to the south as well."
"I am still better than that fraud," Silvermist quickly said. "Don\'t ever compare me to him."
"Oh, so senior Wineweed is from this continent as well?" Alex asked. "Is… that why you hate him so much?"
"I\'ve hated him for far longer than that," Silvermist said. "Our rivalry goes back further than the existence of these cities. Long before I decided to make the Medicine World my home."
