Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy

Chapter 3561 Hannah's Creation

Alex and the rest didn't know how to react to what they had just been told.

The knowledge of what Liz had formed as her Creation had already been shocking, but the fact that she had gotten it through her master, who was the Divination God, was even more surprising.

The Divination God was such a distant figure for Alex that he found it hard to believe he could even take a disciple. And yet, it made perfect sense for him to take her as his disciple, given her body constitution.

There was no one better out there to learn anything related to Time.

"So that was Time Reversal?" he asked. "It didn't feel like it."

"Well, I'm still not able to fully utilize it," Liz said with a slightly peeved look. "I have to manipulate someone's time aura and make it move in reverse. The stronger someone is, the harder it is. In your case, I barely managed to reverse time to a point where the forward flow matched the backward flow. So in a way, you were technically frozen in time. Once I get stronger, though, I can increase my strength and make the backward flow stronger so that you actually go back in time by more than just a few seconds."

Alex raised an eyebrow in some surprise. "I see," he said. "And am I right to assume that you can only affect one person at a time?"

"I can do multiple people, but it takes way too much out of me that I wouldn't even dare. Until the Spirit grows into a Creation, I'm sticking to a single target."

Alex nodded slowly. "Have you tried it on Father?" he asked. "He's physically strong but not with his Qi cultivation. How does it work on him?"

"He's the worst actually. I think my power has something to do with manipulating the soul, and his is impossible to affect," Liz said.

Alex took in her words, getting a better understanding of her powers.

'That's a shame,' he thought. If her powers could affect his father to a greater degree, he could look into his father's situation and help him much more easily without having to worry about irreversibly damaging him. If Liz could just turn back time the moment he made a mistake while trying to help him, that would have been incredibly useful.

Alas, that was not to be.

He didn't voice any of that and just turned toward the others. "What about you, Ronron?"

"I…" Ronron hesitated slightly. "I'm afraid I can't tell you, Father. I made an oath to my master not to reveal my Creation unless I absolutely have to."

"Oh!" Alex blinked in surprise. "In that case, you don't have to force yourself to tell me."

He turned toward Hannah next.

Unlike the others, Hannah actually had a Creation right now. She was in the Divine Creation 8th realm based on Alex's senses, so he couldn't help but wonder what her Creation was.

"Spirit veins," Hannah said.

Alex narrowed his eyes. "What about them?"

"That's my Creation."

Alex paused, the words taking a moment to fully register. "Wait, your Creation is a Spirit Vein?"

Hannah nodded.

Alex couldn't even begin to understand how that was possible. "Umm… do you mind explaining it a bit more?" he asked.

"It was the Sky God's suggestion," Hannah said. "Because I can absorb Qi easily without using any technique, she suggested that it might be a good idea for me to form Spirit Veins as my Creation."

Alex slowly shook his head. "I'm not sure I fully understand what you mean, sister. Why Spirit Veins? They're not good for offense or defense, nor do they have any great utility," he said. "And do correct me if I'm wrong, but you can't just create Spirit Veins without absorbing the required amount of energy first, can you?"

Hannah shook her head. "I have to completely charge up my Creation before I can use it even once," she said. "I can usually only use it once every few centuries. Until today, I've only used it four times."

A thought crossed Alex's mind when he heard that. While he understood that a Spirit Vein technically achieved nothing for Hannah, it could achieve a lot for the rest of humanity. Upon realizing that the Sky God had suggested it, Alex began to understand what the woman had likely been thinking.

The world was running out of Qi. Most of it was locked within the bodies of old cultivators who weren't going to die for a long time. Similarly, there were many regions where Qi existed but no Spirit Veins formed naturally.

If Hannah could somehow absorb all of the vagrant Qi into her Creation, then she could create new Spirit Veins and place them in different locations.

That way, there would be a resurgence of Spirit Veins for everyone to use.

'Most Spirit Veins in the world are slowly dying out. If she can absorb the Qi and make new ones, they would likely last for a long time,' Alex thought. What initially sounded like a useless Creation had suddenly turned into one of the most valuable abilities in the entire world.

"The Sky God said that plenty of people had tried using a Spirit Vein as a Creation, but they were always limited by their ability to absorb Qi. A regular person would take forever not only to absorb, but also to refine the Qi before adding it to their Creation. Thanks to my physique, I can do it hundreds of times faster than anyone else. And I'm also getting faster. Soon, I should be able to create Spirit Veins in just a century. Maybe even less."

Alex nodded slowly. "What grade of Spirit Veins do you make right now?" he asked.

A somewhat proud look appeared on Hannah's face. "Since I can only absorb and make use of Divine Qi, all of my created Spirit Veins are of the Divine grade as well."
