It wasn't that he had no way to advance on his own.
But having someone guide you and having no one guide you were two entirely different things.
The principles of an Alchemist weren't hard to understand.
Simply put, they amounted to making potions.
Brewing potions others had already developed, improving existing potions, or researching an entirely new one.
Those were the most basic principles of being an Alchemist.
However, if he wanted to advance perfectly,

Even if someone else got hold of the recipe, they would have almost no chance of reproducing it.
