Chapter 853 Getting Out
The cultivation base was rather low. He was just at Skin Tempering 2nd realm if even that. But that alone sent a shock through Alex's body as it was an impossibility in his eyes.
That was one of the reasons why he never bothered to call out Whiskers for so long because there really was nothing for him to do outside.
Being a Seeking mouse, his only job would be to go to a place where Alex couldn't go on his own for fear of his own life.
Like scouting enemies, or checking tombs and mazes and traps and such. Alex didn't need to train Whisker for such a thing, so he never brought him out.
But now that he had a cultivation base, Alex started regretting it. If he knew this was the case, he would have helped him cultivate so much more.
"Wait, no," Alex's logical mind kicked in and he shook his head. "He couldn't cultivate before surely. If he did, he would have already cultivated while he was in my body for so many years. Why now?"
There was really one answer.
"Undying God's physique?" Alex thought to himself. Why would Undying God's physique help Whisker? Did it have something to do with Undying God's bloodline?
Another thought came to Alex at the same time. Was this a similar situation as Pearl and him?
Only in this case, he has taken up the role that Pearl did.
Pearl had the White Tiger's Dominating Physique, while he had White Tiger's bloodline. Of course, in his case, the bloodline itself didn't provide any significant power aside from a stronger blood aura, and a Supreme Metal spiritual root.
However, whenever Pearl did cultivate the physique, he too cultivated alongside it, giving him the body cultivation he had for most of his life.
In a similar fashion, he now held the Undying God's Physique, while Whisker held the Undying God's bloodline. The bloodline helped Whisker come back to life whenever he was dead, so long as he had bonded to another being. Aside from that, Whisker himself didn't get anything.
However, going by what happened between Pearl and him, if he were to cultivate the Undying God's physique, then through their bond, and Whisker's bloodline, Whisker should get something as well.
In this case, he was cultivating the physique alongside Alex, and getting a cultivation base.
So, if Alex kept cultivating the Undying God's physique for a long time, Whisker would have a great cultivation base as well.
"If this is true, then I got more than I was looking for with me coming here," Alex said to himself. He tucked the little mouse with his small cultivation base into his robes and started flying.
Even though he couldn't see himself, Whisker's vision was very clear and as he reached closer to the mountain, he used his own spiritual sense to find it and landed on it.
His spiritual sense had already got to work and he found the script with the teleportation rune on it.
Alex stood before it with a solemn face. Now that he was here, he was going to go out into the Northern continent. He didn't know where exactly in the northern continent he was or what the outside world was even like.
Going by basic knowledge, it would be full of ice and snow, but he wasn't sure if that was really the case.
Alex remembered his mother and how she would be alone for a long time. Then he remembered all his friends, fellow disciples, and master that he had told he would be back not long after the Demon realm was done.
Then he remembered the Jaguar that was stuck in the formation outside. Was he going to be okay on his own?
He couldn't help but imagine the worst case and he had to shake his head to snap out of it.
So what if he was missing? His mother was still a True King cultivator and an Immortal rank talisman maker as well as a Heaven rank Alchemist.
Anyone that came to fight against her would have to fight the entirety of the Alchemy guild and the Talisman guild, not to mention the Flowing Brush sect. Then there was the Emperor who would most likely help his mother, just because he feared Shen Jing.
As for his friends and masters over in the Crimson Empire, yes he would leave them alone for a while, but he had done everything he could for them.
His visiting them again would not result in anything but slight happiness in seeing him. That could wait, surely.
As for the Jaguar, there wasn't even a need to worry. With his cultivation base, if he was injured, then he didn't deserve to be a servant of the White Tiger.
Once the bad feeling trickled away from Alex like sweat on a hot day, a small smile rose on his face and his heart started beating faster as the feeling of nervousness and excitement of seeing a new continent and its people took over him.
Being as protected as he was when growing up, he had always wanted to see a new place, and meet new people. That was something he was quite fascinated about, and now he was going on a whole new adventure.
With a smile on his face, Alex knelt down to the script and powered it up. When the golden light from the runes flashed, both he and Whisker vanished from the secret realm.
As soon as Alex appeared outside, he felt something change. The space around him was… different. Freer, and less compressed.
He had arrived on a cold, chilling night with absolutely no wind at all. The sky was covered with clouds, not letting in any night light.
He had half his leg in the soft snow, but he could only see that with his spiritual sense.
He chuckled a bit when he realized that Whisker wasn't that helpful when there were clouds in the sky blocking the moon.
He spread his spiritual sense all around him and saw a monument behind him. It wasn't that different from the one back in Western Continent, meaning if he wanted, he could enter back again.
'10 years,' Alex thought. 'I will have to return here 10 years later to find my way back.'
After deciding that, he looked around as he needed to find a direction to move it.
With darkness against him and his spiritual sense not reaching very far away, he couldn't see much.
However, Whisker could see a small light in the very distance that Alex couldn't really tell what it was due to Whisker's eyes not being as good as they could be yet.
Still, that being the only choice for him right now, he lifted himself off of the ground and flew in that direction.
The Qi in the air wasn't as strong as the secret realm, but just by a little bit. Compared to Western Continent, it was so much stronger.
If anything, it was just a little worse than the Beast realm, but that was likely only because the Qi was trapped in the beast realm, while here it got to roam free.
After flying for a little while, Alex saw that the tiny glow was actually the magma glowing from a volcano, and not far below the mountain was a settlement of people.
"Let's start my journey from here."
