Alchemy has many miraculous aspects.
However.
All of its arrays and alchemy spells must follow one principle, which is the principle of equivalent exchange.
How should I put it?
Gold can be refined.
But it cannot be created out of thin air.
When one kind of material is manufactured, another kind must be consumed, maintaining the overall balance.
This is somewhat similar to the equivalent exchange of the God of Justice.
However, there is a fundamental difference between the two.
The equivalent exchange of the God of Justice emphasizes the equivalence of value. For instance, a ton of gold and a ton of dirt naturally have different values.
The equivalent exchange in alchemy emphasizes the equivalence of energy.
If the energy contained in a ton of dirt is the same as that in a ton of gold, then they are equivalent and can be transmuted into each other.
As the learning goes deeper.
Baiyu feels more and more that this alchemy is quite perverse.
