Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy - Chapter 2299

Chapter 2299 Confusion

The woman looked at the pill for a bit, her mind failing to understand why there was another pill in Alex's hand.

She looked down at the pills she had gotten, counting them. There were 90 pills with her, which was the right amount of pills since that was the number of sets of ingredients Alex had gotten.

He had already turned all of the ingredients he had been given into pills, so where had the final pill come from?

Looking at the design, it looked almost exactly the same as the Twilight Consuming Pill, but the similarity ended there. The aura was so much more different than the other pills that it couldn't be the same at all.

She thought for a moment and looked at Alex. "May I look at your medallion?" she asked.

"Yes," Alex said, taking off his medallion to give it to her. The woman quickly checked it and didn't find what she was looking for. Alex hadn't brought out anything from his Soul Space and there was no way he got an entirely separate set of ingredients when it wasn't listed.

The possibility of a mistake was almost nonexistent, considering the formations and artifacts they were using were made by the factions of the Artifact and Formation gods, and had been tested extensively by them.

Hence, the woman failed to comprehend the situation at the moment as 90 sets of ingredients could have given way to 91 pills. Not to mention, what was she supposed to do here?

They had a very clear directive before coming here, especially after a recent mistake that had been made where a young man was given a faulty ingredient. Unless the mistake they made was huge, the participants would have to suffer the consequences.

Here too, the same rule applied, but Alex hadn't made any mistakes for him to get faulted.

She thought for a bit and said, "You have earned 8305 points for making the 90 pills you sought to make. You will get no points for this other pill since you didn't choose to make it from the start."

Alex nodded. "I understand," he said. "But what about the Pill Veins?" "What about it?" the woman asked.

"Every pill vein gives 100 more points, isn't that the rule, senior?" he asked.

Aethersage - 8360 points. 'Wow,' Alex thought. Had everything gone according to plan, Alex would've ended up in the second rank. But because things hadn't gone according to plan, there was still some chance.

The woman named Guomi quickly explained the situation, showing all the 90 pills that Alex should have made along with the extra pill that he had made. That certainly caught the Alchemy God's attention.

"Show me," he said and looked at the variant Twilight Consuming pill that Alex had made with its 3 stark pill veins.

He looked at it for a moment before looking at the rest of the Twilight Consuming Pill.

"Step outside for a bit, Guomi," the Alchemy God said.

The woman seemed confused by the request, but she didn't disobey. She moved back, walking out of the barrier that stopped all sound.

Once she was outside, the Alchemy God finally turned toward Alex.

"You are Silvermist's disciple, aren't you?" he asked.

Alex nodded. "I am Dawnblade, Your Majesty."

"Did you turn 9 sets of ingredients into 10 pills?" the Alchemy God asked.

Alex nodded.

"And the final one, you turned into this," he said.

Alex nodded again.

"How did you know to make this?" the Alchemy God asked. "A regular set of ingredients shouldn't make this pill. Did you add anything else?"Nôv(el)B\jnn
