Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy - Chapter 3512 The Moon Rabbit

Chapter 3512 The Moon Rabbit
It was hard to imagine the beast in the recording to be anything other than the Moon Rabbit. The moon-like silver fur, from which the beast derived its name, was clearly there, and its size was far too large to be anything other than a Primordial.
He wasn’t the only one who had come to that conclusion. Everyone else was slowly coming to understand that what they were seeing was none other than the Moon Rabbit as well.
Alex thought of what he knew about the Moon Rabbit, but other than the fact that it was a Primordial, he had little clue about it. There was that one bit about the Architect being the Moon Rabbit’s descendant, but that wasn’t something that was confirmed.
As a result, he was practically in the dark regarding the beast.
“The Moon Rabbit,” the Wine God said softly, his eyes shining bright as he spoke. “For so many years, I have searched for any signs regarding the other Primordials, and finally we’ve found another.”
“Is it alive?” one of the ancestors on the balcony asked.
“No, it is very much dead,” the Beast God answered. “No Primordials can survive in the current time.”
“We’ve learned that even those that had survived the degradation of Qi ended up killing themselves,” the Wine God said. “So it is wise to assume that this one is dead as well.”
Alex agreed with that assessment. Given everything he knew, all of the Primordials were dead.
“If the Moon Rabbit is there, and from the looks of it, it is untouched, does that mean we could bring it back?” someone asked. “Its body is clearly intact, so that should confirm that its beast core is there as well, right?”
A few of the ancestors grew quite excited upon hearing the
possibility.
While a Primordial’s beast core couldn’t help them directly, they could hand it to one of the prodigies of their families, who could then absorb it and form a Creation that was a Primordial.
“If we can get it, what you are thinking may be possible,” the Wine God said. “It was said that the Sky God and his lineage began from someone who used the beast core of the Roc, so it is not impossible.”
“It is wishful thinking,” the Beast God said. “Even if the core may be there, who is going to go get it? Besides, you should continue watching the recording to see what happens next.”
Alex did as the Beast God proposed and looked at the recording again, continuing from where he had stopped. The crew had gathered on the deck to watch the massive floating beast far away.
Just then, the image of the rabbit in the recording began twisting and turning, as if it were being seen through a clear lens that was morphing in shape. Space itself was distorting around them.
Before anyone could fully understand what was happening, the ship had hit the spatial phenomenon.
They had reacted quite fast, all things considered. Using some sort of control plate that Bigshell carried with him, he instantly turned the ship around to escape the spatial anomaly.
“That’s the thing they hit?” someone asked. “Is that how the ship ended up in trouble?”
Realizing that the spatial barrier surrounded the Moon Rabbit, everyone quickly lost hope.
“It’s a shame,” someone said. “If not for this, we would have another Primordial beast body we could use.”
“Considering its size, it could likely host cultivators inside it as well,” another person said.
The other two Primordials everyone knew about were the Dragon
Turtle and the Headless Immortal, both of which were the size of a medium city, floating in outer space and carrying cultivators within them.
If the Moon Rabbit were somehow brought back, it could likely be used for the same purpose.
The Wine God pulled on his beard slowly, considering something. “That makes it the eighth Primordial we have learned about,” he said. “There are still seven more we have to find.”
Alex turned toward the old man, wondering which ones he was talking about. Were there some he knew that Alex himself didn’t?
“Which ones are you aware of?” Bladedance asked what everyone else
was thinking.
The Wine God began listing the eight Primordials he knew about.
“There are the two out in space-three now, including the Moon Rabbit. The Roc and the Nine-Headed Phoenix have been turned into artifacts for the Sky God and the Fire God. The Flood Dragon and the Qilin formed the two scars on the Twin Scar World. And finally, the Thousand Miles Horse has been turned into an artifact by the Demons,” the Wine God answered.
Alex’s eyes narrowed slightly. “The Thousand Miles Horse is with the demons?’ he thought. Shumi had never mentioned anything about it. The only Primordial she ever talked about was the Heavenly Dog. That meant either she was unaware of it, or the Wine God was wrong.
‘It’s understandable he doesn’t know about the Tiger, Dog, Crow, Fox, Rain Dragon, and Phoenix. But I had hoped he would at least know something about the Yellow Dragon, Alex thought.
That was the only Primordial he now had absolutely no information
about.
“Hey!” someone from down below suddenly shouted, catching everyone’s attention. “What’s that at the end?”
“Huh? What are you talking about?” someone else asked.
“There, next to the moon. At the end. Look.”
Alex grew curious and focused his attention back on the recording,
watching up to when the crew saw the Moon Rabbit and then got caught in the spatial anomaly. They had gotten away from there in a
panic.
Despite the panic, the recording had continued for a bit longer, likely because the person had forgotten to stop it. That allowed something else to be captured. Something no one had noticed until now.
Far away, where the silver moon hung in the pure darkness, just off to
the side, Alex could see something glowing.
“Huh?”
Alex’s eyes went wide in surprise.
“Is that… a Star?”
