There were three main ways to elevate your soul.
Learning the world as the Truth-Seeking Path.
Receiving blessings as the Light-Bearing Path.
And forcefully taking power as the Dark-Chasing Path.
An Alchemist took the Truth-Seeking Path as their main way of thriving. They could also make use of the Light-Bearing Path and Dark-Chasing Path. However, they must be too reliant on the Light and Dark Path, or else they would turn into something else.
Alchemists were Truth-Seekers at heart. Not Light-Bearers nor Dark-Chasers.
The notable Light-Bearers in Siderius' old world were the monks. They practiced the way of Absolute Harmony, living in a karmic way to ensure fate would fall in their favor. They were on the good side in the world's eyes and would do anything in their power to preserve the rules of the world. This allowed them to see their destiny and even shape it to an extent.
