Chapter 178: 178: Experiment

Alex went out of to courtyard after logging in. He felt like taking a bath before doing anything. So, he took off his clothes and jumped into the pond. He didn't care about the little fishes in there and only enjoyed the cool water.

"Pearl will probably like this as well," He thought and called out Pearl. With a bright white light, Pearl appeared on top of the water. 

SPLASH

As soon as he appeared he fell into the pond, desperately struggling to walk out of it. However, having never been in the water before, he didn't know what to do. He swung his little waves around, causing waves after waves to appear on the surface of the pond. 

"It's okay Pearl, it's okay," Alex immediately swam forward to hold the little cat and pet him. Only after being held out of the water did he finally stop struggling and let out a weak meow. 

"You don't like water, do you? I should have known that would be the case. You are a cat after all. Still, you need to take a bath," Alex said and proceeded to dunk Pearl in the water and washed him off. He then put Pearl back into his arm and proceeded to wash.

After he himself was fully washed he decided to get out. He started swimming forward but soon realized that even though he was so strong, he was still feeling a bit of resistance in the water.

'Wait a second,' he thought. 'What if I…' without deliberating any further, he immediately used his technique, Fluctuating Friction Dance. 

Soon, his body was covered in Qi, which his legs were exceptionally strengthened. He then pushed his Qi outside to remove the friction, but it barely worked. He pushed more Qi and it was starting to do some work, he was feeling a lot less resistance, but there was still some. 

Finally, he pushed the Qi to its limit and suddenly, there was no resistance. Suddenly, with no resistance, he started falling to the bottom of the pond, which wasn't very deep.

After reaching the floor of the pond, he simply started walking forward. He felt absolutely no resistance. It was as easy, no, easier than walking on land. The water was pushed around by the Qi faster than he could move forward. 

'Wow,' he was surprised. This was not a sight he thought he would be able to see when he became a cultivator. 'This is so good,' he thought. 'Sigh, but it also costs a tremendous amount of Qi. If I were to keep it up, my Qi which lasts for hours on end will be used up in less than an hour,' he thought. 

Thinking so, he walked out of the water, and put on his robes, and walked back into the house. It was time for him to make some more pills. 

However, he didn't just make pills. He needed to test his theory too. 

"I need to see if it is only Metal energy or if there are other energies that I am unaware of that I can use just as well. He racked his brain thinking of the different pills he could make, and the different energy each pill had.

Finally, preparing 6 types of pills for the 6 different types of energy, he started making these pills once more. "Shame there aren't any pills that have Yin or Yang energy as their main result," he thought.

He walked into the Alchemy room and put the cauldron into the fire to heat it up. He used Qi manipulation to get rid of any remnants from the previous alchemy process and started preparing his ingredients for the first pill.

The energy produced for the first pill was none. It was a neutral pill where the resulting energy was a combination of all and thus neither of them. The resulting energy didn't align with any of the other 5 elements so he decided to start with that. 

He took as much care as he could during the making of this pill, and finally, when it came time to form the pill, he used Elemental Guidance once more. He didn't expect anything to happen, and just as to fulfill his expectations, nothing did happen. 

The energies were guided as expected and only some of them fused with the forming pill, while the rest of them moved away. Suddenly, the powder that was still in the process of forming the pill split into two, making two separate pills. Suddenly, two vortexes formed above the newly formed pills, sucking in all the energy from the surrounding, which was the inside of the cauldron. 

Finally, the two pills were formed at 36% and 42% harmony each. "So, Neutral energy pills aren't it" he thought.

He then proceeded to gather ingredients for the Fire energy pill. He started making the pill and after they were done being powder and the energies were up in the air, he started using the Elemental Guidance to guide the resulting fire energy. As expected it worked normally. It just guided the energy and did nothing whatsoever to move the energy.

Finally, the pill formed with a harmony of 48%. "As I thought, Fire energy pills don't work either,' he thought. 

Next up was the Earth energy pill. Similarly, he turned the ingredients into powder form and once the resulting energy in the cauldron was earth aligned, he used Elemental Guidance. This one was a failure as well. The pill only had a harmony of 45% and it was a single pill at that too. 

"Sigh, not Earth either. Is my theory really correct?" he thought. 

The next one on the list was a pill whose resulting energy was water-aligned. As usual, he formed the powder and once the resulting energy was formed, he used Elemental Guidance to move the energy to the forming pill once more. 

The result was as expected, a failure. However, he did manage to push himself to the limit and formed a pill in heaven grade with 50% harmony.

"Good pill, but the theory still stands. I couldn't move the energy at all" he thought. 

Finally, it was time for him to make a Metal energy pill.
