Chapter 1272 Questions
"How does it work?" Ning asked as the very first question he wanted an answer to. "How does a Will change energies at their will?"
<Just as a Host of the Energy system can change one energy into another energy. Only, the ones with the System are only allowed to change it to regular energies. Not the unique ones>
"What?" Ning was a little confused when he heard that. "I can convert energies? But isn't that…"
He paused for a second. Now that he thought about it, that was true. He had been converting one energy into another.
The very first skill he ever bought for himself instead of asking the system to do something was the Candle Fire skill.
It was a technique that turned the energy inside of him into fire. Converting pure unadulterated energy into heat energy.
When he thought some more, he also had a skill that could convert Yin to Heat, or more accurately Qi to Heat. That was the conversion of energy as well, that too from unique energy to regular energy. He thought for a moment, thinking of other examples that were there.
He had converted many things into many other things throughout his history. He had simply never thought of it as converting energy. The system simply did it, so he didn't think much about most of what he did.
"But I can't turn regular energy into unique energy, can I?" he asked. He knew that to be the case, but given the situation, he thought it best to confirm it once again.
<Yes. A host of the Energy System cannot convert regular energy into unique energies>
Ning nodded. That was to be expected. But…
"What about when… uh… wait, is Nuclear energy the last? Or is there other energy after that? That's what Nigel told me," he said.
<Yes, Nuclear Energy is the final energy that you have to unlock before you unlock everything.>
"Okay, once I unlock that and I complete these quests that the creator has put on in the system for me, Do I finally become able to convert normal energy to unique energy?" he asked.
<No. A host of the Energy System will never be able to do that, no matter the level he has reached in the system>
"I see," Ning said. That was a little disappointing for sure. He had hoped that would be the case, but it turned out otherwise.
"In that case, let me ask my other question then," Ning said. "Can all Wills convert regular Energy to Unique energies? Like Emma just did."
<No, Wills aren't capable of that. What they are capable of is converting the Pure Energy that forms them into other types of energy, including Unique energies.>
"Oh, so they cannot do it with regular energy?" he asked.
<No, they are not capable of that. They are however capable of turning regular energy into pure energy for themselves, so long as they remain in their own system.>
Ning nodded. "I think I'm getting it a little," he said. He thought about what he wanted to ask next and another burning question came into his mind.
"Can she create other forms of energies as well then?" he asked. "She hasn't been t an Aether world, so can she create Aether?" <You mean convert. She cannot convert her pure energy to Aether energy as she is not aware of what it is. She has only converted it to Essence energy because she has spent the past decade in this world and her body has adapted to it.>
"Uhh… does her body have to adapt?" Ning asked.
<She does not need to be adapted. She just needs to either belong to the world the energy is from, or experience the energy in one form or another.>
"Oh," Ning said. "So I can't ask her to heal Saphandra and the others when they overexert themselves? That's a little sad."
<She can use her pure energy to heal them, but she needs to train for it.>
"Huh? You can use pure energy to heal the spirits?" Ning asked.
<That is how you've been healing them.>
"Oh, right. I have been doing that with my Spirit Space. For some reason, these new pieces of information are making me question everything I ever knew," Ning said.
It was truly the sort of information to send your who train of thought into disarray. He gathered the pieces he could and landed on another question.
"Spirits, let's talk about them. Why are they healed by Pure Energy?" he asked.
<Because their body is pure energy>
"Huh?" Ning didn't believe that. He thought for a moment and asked, "Then why can she absorb Spiritual Energy?"
<Because she is formed from Spiritual energy, but her body can only accept that to form herself. She is capable of converting Spiritual energy into Pure energy. Similarly, she is also capable of turning Pure energy into Spiritual energy>
"Woah! That is a lot of information you just threw at me," Ning said. "So… Spirits have a pure energy body? But they can't absorb other forms of energy, because they are born from that one energy."
He contemplated on it for a moment and one piece of information in there seemed too suspicious for some reason.
"Wait a second, did you just say that Spirits are capable of creating Spiritual energy from Pure energy?" he asked.
<The ones that were born from Spiritual energy, just as the ones you brought along, are capable of such a feat.>
"So spirits from the Qi worlds could covert Pure energy into Qi are well?" he asked.
<Yes.>
"How?" Ning asked. "You told me not even 2 minutes earlier that only Wills are capable of that."
<No, the system never said that. The system only said that Wills is capable of doing the same.>
"So what? A Spirit is a kind of Will too?" he asked.
<No. Quite the opposite>
"The opposite?" Ning thought for a moment as his expression changed visibly. "Are you saying… Wills… are a kind of Spirit too?"
