Rise of the Alchemy God

.

While everyone was still confused and even a little frightened by the phenomenon in the sky, the formation that had just finished positioning itself above the skies of the beast continent began to illuminate.

A vast amount of pure Qi was being absorbed into it.

A significant portion of that Qi came directly from Ethan, while the rest was drawn from the surrounding environment.

Seeing the object in the sky begin to shine, many started to panic, but before anything could escalate,

Tic.

A drop fell to the ground, dampening the earth, which had been quite dry just moments earlier.

It didn't take long before more droplets began to fall, one after the other, and seeing this, people started to wonder why it had suddenly begun to rain.

"Hmm, is this rain?" a beastman said as he tried to taste the droplet that had landed on the palm of his hand. Stay tuned with empire

Others followed his lead, and strangely, the water tasted sweet.

Before anyone could even begin to question this, a refreshing sensation spread throughout their bodies.

An elderly beastman, feeling this rejuvenating energy, showed an expression of ecstasy as he muttered things like,

"The heavens have decided to grant me a few more centuries of life."

While the inhabitants of the entire continent were still coming to terms with this strange phenomenon, the beastmen with cultivation levels at the second stage and above realized that these droplets weren't water at all but rather condensed Qi.

"Holy sh*t, this Qi is incredibly pure. With just one drop, I can feel my cultivation improve slightly," said one of them, immediately recognizing the composition of the droplet that had fallen on his muzzle.

Just like him, many others noticed this as well, and their initial fear turned into joy. Many began to meditate, preparing to refine these drops of Qi.

Unfortunately for them, before they could take any action, the drops of pure Qi began to move.

As if time itself were reversing, they suddenly started to float before flying back up into the sky.

The droplets of Qi, which had covered nearly every surface, both external and internal, across the continent, began to ascend slowly.

Even places like the interiors of houses or underground caves weren't spared.

Once absorbed into the ground, the droplets traveled quickly, penetrating to depths of thousands of miles.

Essentially, Ethan had programmed them in such a way that no trace of demonic Qi, whether present in the air, inside any living being, or within objects, would be spared.

Now that the first phase was complete, these Qi droplets began returning to the air.

Many cultivators, witnessing this scene, wore horrified expressions as they desperately tried to snatch even a small trace of the pure Qi that had rained from the sky.

But too bad for them, the owner of this energy was too powerful for them to steal the fruits of his hard work.

The droplets rose, gathering near the formation, and then, as if they had a will of their own, they converged toward a single point, the center of the formation.

Just as quickly as they had fallen, in mere seconds, the droplets returned, merging into a single point.

They formed a small sphere of light, within which appeared to be a reddish-black core.

As the particles of pure Qi returned, the massive formation that had amazed many began to swirl and shrink continuously until it reduced to the size of a disc, just slightly larger than the palm of a hand.

The only difference was that this time, the formation contained the sphere of pure Qi floating comfortably above it.

Ethan, who had calmly waited for everything to finish, gave a slight command.

The disc, along with the sphere of Qi above it, moved toward his palm, and upon landing, the disc-shaped formation dispersed, leaving only the slightly transparent sphere that revealed the reddish-black core within.

Seeing this, Bai Yu, who had been silently observing everything alongside Ethan, couldn't help but ask,

"So, this is how you intended to retrieve all traces of demonic Qi?" she said as she stepped closer, examining the luminous sphere in his hand.

Ethan nodded simply. With a light squeeze of his palm, he reduced the sphere's size to that of a pill with a diameter no larger than three centimeters.

Without hesitation, he swallowed it.

Watching this, Bai Yu could only shake her head.

If this had been in the past, she would have strangled him while trying to make him spit out the sphere containing traces of demonic Qi.

But after all this time, she had come to understand that Ethan was truly immune to the corruption brought by demonic Qi

In fact, his body could absorb and refine it, something no positive spiritual energy cultivator could achieve.

DING!

[You have gained +23 STR.]

[You have gained +13 AGI.]

[You have gained +9 INT.]

[You have gained +1 Soul Strength.]

Seeing the meager amount of stats Ethan had gained, he wasn't particularly surprised.

In truth, he had expected to gain even less than this.

After all, when he healed Guo Lan, he hadn't received a single stat point, and the increase in power he felt was almost nonexistent.

So multiplying that amount by a few billion people would only yield such a small gain.

He didn't dwell on it much. In the end, he decided to probe one last time to ensure he hadn't missed any traces of Qi left in the air or hidden in some particularly secluded areas.

After a while, he finished probing and confirmed that all traces had been eliminated.

Naturally, with this, his little trip to the beast continent came to an end, and it was finally time to head toward the demonic continent.

Using his spiritual sense, he had already gotten a general idea of the place's situation, but he was curious to see the continent's current state in person.

From his previous examination, he had already sensed several things in the demon continent, and by doing so he had been able to get an idea of ​​the power level of the inhabitants there.

He had confirmed that a good part of them were more or less at the same level as the humans and beastmen, but he had detected several fifth-stage auras, including about ten at the peak of fifth-stage .

This was without including the one killed by Bai yu and the two killed by him.

It was quite clear that the overall strength of the demon continent was already a step higher than the other two continents.

He was certain that if they were to go to war now, excluding the possibility of winning, even resisting for too long would not be possible for them.
