Chapter 178: Experiment (1/2)

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.
