Eternal Cultivation Of Alchemy

Alex stared blankly for a few seconds. He tried to come up with an answer for Godslayer, but… he couldn’t remember any such event.

“I don’t know,” he answered in the end. “I don’t know what happened.”

“Hm? Didn’t you say your constitutions were similar?’ Godslayer asked.

“They were… I think…” Alex said. “I never really knew what master’s body constitution was, aside from knowing it was a Yin body constitution. I never actually managed to find out anything else.”

“Still, if your body reacted the same way her body did, then… there should be some similarity in what it did right?” Godslayer asked. “Are you sure you didn’t show any sort of signs as to what it could have done?”

Alex fell into some thoughts. He had never really thought back to that part of his past, so he hadn’t given any of what had happened back then much thought. Now that he was giving it some thought, he found some differences in what he thought was similar.

“Actually, Master’s and my situation might have been a little different, now that I think about it,” Alex said. “Master has a Yin body and her problem occurred when she absorbed a strong Yang in her body. Her body evolved when I took away that Yang.”

“Unlike her, my body evolved when I ate the Nine Yang Divine fruit. Instead of being affected by the opposite energy, I was affected by the similar one.”

“We both had imbalance after that and needed the opposite energy to control ourselves. While Master had no way of acquiring Yang energy, other than going out to find it in our sect’s forbidden area.”

“As for me, I had a cultivation technique that directly let me absorb Yin,” Alex said. “Maybe that was why I never showed signs. Because I was constantly cultivating and suppressing the yang inside my body at all times.”

“Of course, I had to find the Five Yang Divine Path at that time, which made the matter worse, but I’m sure aside from the first time, I controlled it most of… the time…” his voice trailed off as he remembered the first night he practiced the technique.

He remembered the Yang energy he drew in that night like a vortex. His body was full of Yang already, so he couldn’t absorb it all and instead, it only gathered around it. At that time, Luo Mei had rushed to him in worry that something was happening.

Because his mind was on this matter, his memory from that time surfaced again.

‘Are you the cause of this?’ she had asked him at the time when he had turned the whole house hot from the excess amount of Yang in there.

The memory that was hidden somewhere in the back of his mind was slowly revealing itself again and started playing as if a recording.

Luo Mei had come into his room that night, worried for his safety, and then said a couple of sentences. As the memory played itself in his mind, one of those sentences caught Alex’s attention.

“Wait,” he spoke out loud. “I do know what happens.”

“Huh?” Godslayer was surprised to hear him shout all of a sudden after becoming silent for a while. “What do you know?” he asked.

“What happens when someone uses spiritual sense around me,” Alex said. “My Yang burns up their spiritual sense.”

“Oh,” Godslayer said. “How did you figure that out?”

“My senior sister told me once when my Yang imbalance truly got out of control. I didn’t give it a thought back then, but… she definitely said that.”

“Your yang aura makes other people’s spiritual sense burn?” Godslayer asked to confirm.

“Yes,” Alex said. “As least… it did during the imbalance phase of my life. I don’t think it has worked that way a single day when I had it under some sort of control, which happened to be most if not all the days I had the imbalance. It was only toward the end when I went to the Icy Hell that it had gotten very bad.”

“Even then, I was controlling it to the best of my ability,” Alex said.

“So… you don’t know for certain what would have happened if you had let it be for real,” Godslayer asked.

“No, but I trust my senior sister’s words,” Alex said.

“That’s good and all, but you still need proof,” Godslayer said.

“Sure,” Alex said. “Let’s get some proof then.”

“How do you suggest we do that?” Godslayer asked. “You don’t have that imbalance anymore.”

“Yeah… but I should be able to emulate it,” Alex said. Suddenly, his dantian stirred and a massive amount of Yang energy flowed out from inside of him, quickly covering his entire body in a thick layer of Yang Qi.

Even without a Yang Dao, his Supreme Yang spiritual root gave him excellent control over Yang Qi, allowing him to do what he did.

Alex felt the yang on him and frowned a little. He was covered in Yang, but it didn’t feel enough. He needed more Yang. He needed better Yang.

andasnovel.com There were two methods of acquiring that at the moment.

First, he could use the Immortal tier of the Five Yang Divine path. Until now, he had been using the Saint tier, which had allowed him to reach this far.

However, if he were to use the Immortal tier, he would attract stronger Yang Qi, which was what he needed. However, he wasn’t sure if his body was capable of handling such strong Yang.

In fact, he wasn’t even sure if there was any Yang surrounding him at the moment since he was in a place where Yin seemed to prevail.

As a result, he had to go with his second choice.

Alex reached into his body with his senses and touched onto the burning Yang source inside of his dantian that was hanging on the side of the massive golden core that had already formed.

He touched the Yang source and pulled Qi from it directly, making it help him even more than he himself already had.

A deep sense of coldness filled his dantian now that the Yang source and the Yin bead weren’t balancing themselves, but it was only to a very small level. Alex could handle this quite easily.

Once he pulled the Yang from the Yang source, he finally felt it was adequate enough to be used for what he wanted.

“This should be enough,” Alex said. He opened his eyes after sensing something and realized that even the darkness aura around him was slowly moving away from him.

Even when trying to, Alex was still leaking Yang Qi, just like all those years ago.

“Now you want to find a target to test?” Godslayer asked.

“Now we find a target to figure out if what I remember is correct or not,” Alex said. “Let’s go.”

He moved through the darkness, searching for artifacts and people from around him. As he flew, he came across another bracer, which he hated but kept reluctantly.

Then a few minutes later, he came across a spiritual sense that wasn’t retreating right at the very moment.

“We found our first test subject,” Alex said to Godslayer. “Let’s pray it doesn’t become the last.”
