1905 Clues

Alex panicked upon hearing those words.

Half of those emotions were his, while the other half were ones grown out of fear that was etched into the words he had just heard.

He came for me, the voice had said. Be careful, he'll come for you too.

"Was that… the Alchemy God's voice?" Alex wondered. It might have been someone else's voice, but the most plausible explanation was the Alchemy God's voice.

And the most harrowing part of that explanation was that the Alchemy God had feared something. A person. A 'He'.

Was this a person? A human? A demon? A beast? A spirit?

Alex could only wonder. There was no more information here than what he had heard. That was the last piece of information left for him to look through.

'No, there has to be something,' Alex thought and quickly went back through those memories again. He saw those flashes of memories, of the vague locations, of the book covers.

Alex's eyes opened wide. "Are those books… his treasures?" he wondered.

The Alchemy God had 3 books that were his treasure. As of now, only one of those books has been found.

The Book of Endless Recipes.

And that book was with the current Alchemy God.

As for the other books, no one knew what they were or where they were.

"Is this… a clue?" Alex wondered. He went through those images once more, the memories.

The first one was the hardest image to make sense of. It was as though it was a memory that the Alchemy God himself had forgotten and could barely remember.

Alex tried his best to understand the memory, to not just look through the images, but also the scent, the emotions. But nothing helped.

The first memory was a dud.

The others were a bit more helpful. Alex looked at the two books first, the one with the flower on the cover and the one with the scroll on the cover.

If those were in fact the books he was thinking about, then those two could be the two books that were still in hiding.

Alex wondered what these books could do.

He looked at the other three memories and frowned. They were much less easy to understand.

The small hut with something glowing inside could be just about anything. The large stone door next to a forest could also be anything.

The last one was perhaps the best memory of the three. It showed the corpse of the woman with a scythe next to her.

Given how it was located in a dark location with torches all around, Alex could deduce, at the very least, that the woman was most likely someone important who had died and had been kept there.

'Is this a tomb for this girl?' Alex wondered. If he wanted to learn where this tomb was, he would need to learn who this girl was.

He wished there were pictures around to look for this girl, but that was asking for too much. There were 33 Immortal realms. She could be in any one of them.

Given how most of Alchemy God's information was destroyed in the war, the information around this girl might have been gone as well.

'Not all of Alchemy God's records were destroyed,' Alex thought. 'His bookstillremained, and it was with the Sky God before senior Yang took it from her.'

Alex wondered. Could the woman's information perhaps be with the Sky God as well? Given how the Sky God's Palaceapparentlykept records from long past to the point where they even knew the identities of the 2 True Gods, it was very much possible that the Sky God would know for certain who this woman was.

'Nothing changes then,' Alex thought. 'I still have to go to that world as soon as possible.'

Alex sighed.

He was done with the memories now.

Still, Alex couldn't help but wonder about something. The Alchemy Godclearlyknew he was in danger, so if he had died long ago, he had to have been murdered.

How had no one realized how the Alchemy God had died? Wouldn't that be a large enough piece of news that everyone would record it somewhere?

Also, had he set up this inheritance for a future Alchemist God knowing he was going to die? That was quite grim.

But then, that was no different from how it was for the various Undying Gods. They all knew they were going to die as well, which was why they left behind inheritance, so that someone else may carry on their legacy.

So that someone else may fight their battle.

Alex took a deep breath and came to terms with the new understanding he had about Alchemy God.

"I hope you weren't murdered, Alchemy God. But if you were, and the murderer is still alive, I will kill him for you. That will be the very least I could do for you for all that you've done for me."

Alex distracted himself for the next few hours by setting up a place for the Heavenly Silkworm to live in the Demon Realm that was in his Soul Space.

Not only that, he also planted the Mulberry Trees there finally, which would be looked after by Whisker.

There were True realm Beasts in the 4th mountains along with a lot of alchemy materials of the lower grade. They would work perfectly for the mulberry trees and the silkworms.

After spending some time doing that, and making sure both Alex and Emily were doing fine inside the Timeless Palace, Alex decided to focus on the other changes that had happened after he reached the Immortal realm.

Most of it he had already looked through. The only thing he could do was try and cultivate to see just how well he could.

But the Five Yang Divine Path's Immortal rank cultivation technique was a bit too good to use in a room without any barriers.

Instead, he decided to look at the talisman Bai Jingshen had given him. He took out the talisman to read and paused.

Bai Jingshen had told him he could only read it when he reached the Immortal Origin realm. Alex wasn't sure if there would be something that would go wrong for him if he learned it before that, but he decided to not take any chance.

Instead, he put it back in his Soul Space. He would read it when the time was right.

Now that he didn't have even that to do, it was time to read through those talismans that all of those people had given him while they advertised their sects and guilds.

Alex took one of those talismans out and began reading through them.
