Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 2521 - 2521: The Decision

Leafheart frowned deeply as she looked at the ingredients before her. Which one was she going to have to use this time? Which one had she not used often? What pill could she make?

As someone suffering from creation fatigue and unaware of it, she tried to force her way through the new idea. She wanted it to happen, and she was going to make it happen.

Aethersage felt the energy and felt that it needed a boost. Water energy would empower the Wood energy, so long as it was weaker itself.
