Chapter 206: Casting (3200 Plus)

"For an Extraordinary of the Creator Path, wanting to open the Fourth Primordial Substance and become a Non-human Existence is indeed difficult..."

Aaron calculated and discovered that just gathering the materials for the Ascension Ritual would keep him busy enough.

"Seven pieces of Non-human Grade spiritual remains... it is highly likely that they require purity, so the Amber Insect Egg in my hand won't work, and the remains of the Blood Cup Bishop won't work either..."

The Amber Insect Egg contains two Elements, 'Red' and 'Pupa', mixed together; it is effectively ruined.

"Of course, perhaps one piece is equivalent to two Non-human Grade materials of 'Red' and 'Pupa', but whether it truly works can only be known after using it in the Ascension Ritual... I dare not gamble, especially when it is highly likely to be a losing bet..."

"Hmm... I can use the ability of the 'Spirit of Falsehood' to try and crush and perform Purification on some Non-human Grade Magical Items to obtain the desired spiritual essence. But they must be those crafted from the remains of an Extraordinary who purely cultivated one aspect."

"For instance, the 'Nüwu Guazhui', it has too many Elements, so it clearly won't work... The 'Truth Balance' in Liliyat's hands is a good choice, but she needs it right now to prove her identity and trade with the Investigation Bureau... There is no rush for this; when I truly cannot find anything else later, I will have her hand it over to the Invisible Cult and compensate her otherwise."

"Hmm, I said yesterday that I would give him an answer today, but he arrived really early..."

Aaron began to ponder where to start while slicing his fried egg.

At this moment, Sylvia also returned to his side and said softly, "Mr. William Mark has already left; he was very disappointed..."

"May the Holy Spirit bless him to catch those few swindlers as soon as possible."

From the diamond-like Crystal, wisps of pitch-black mist emerged, transforming into twisted, ferocious human faces, only to be quickly expelled and dissipated...

"By crafting a Magical Item, I can adapt to the abilities of a 'Maker' as quickly as possible... Hmm, the other few Non-human Items are also quite treacherous and not suitable for frequent use; I hope this one isn't that treacherous..."

Aaron sighed: "It's a pity, I thought about it all night, but I am still unable to help... I won't see him; you go tell him and express my regret and apologies."

It can be said that every crafting process is completely different, and there are no fixed rules!

Aaron walked down the stairs, preparing to go to the dining room for breakfast.

"After possessing a Non-human Grade Magical Item, I am also equivalent to half a Fourth Primordial Substance Extraordinary, counting as Non-human combat power; I won't be considered weak anywhere."

Sylvia, accompanied by several maids carrying basins and towels, looked at Aaron, feeling that something seemed wrong, yet she couldn't put it into words.

Sylvia reported a matter.

"What is it?"

'Those few swindlers seem quite suitable.'

"The Absolutely Neutral Existence located behind the multiple veils!"

By the time Aaron regained his focus, a diamond-like, blinking Crystal had already appeared in his hand, every facet radiating brilliant Light, stirring up various emotions and desires within one's heart.

"The Spirit of Falsehood wandering in the unknown, the Absolutely Neutral Existence, the Silent Observer!"

How could crafting a permanent Non-human Grade Magical Item be a simple matter?

"The 'Bone Statue'... anyone with a discerning eye can see it contains 'Red' and 'Darkness', excluded."

Aaron took a sip of hot cocoa and sighed.

"In addition... Mr. William Mark arrived very early; he is waiting for your reply."

Aaron let out a long breath.

Because of the worry about being confronted by the Hidden Existences, Aaron didn't even want to explore the Dream Realm before obtaining key technologies, and the target of the ritual's Prayer would, of course, never involve Hidden Existences or other such entities.

The next day.

Watching her back, the corners of Aaron's mouth curled up slightly.

Aaron dipped his fingers in some silver powder and precisely traced a ritual on the workbench, chanting in the Spirit World Language:

"The Creator above the Creator!"

"Good morning, Young Master, your hair?"

He fell into a state of fanatical work, muttering something to himself from time to time, occasionally adding Spirit Materials, calcining, hammering... fully focused like an artist pouring his heart and soul into creating his most prized work.

After finishing breakfast, he returned to his room, stood by the workbench, and took out the 'Amber Insect Egg'.

'The crafting of a Non-human Grade Strange Object still requires the assistance of a ritual for me at present... and most rituals in Occultism require Offerings, require... sacrifice!'

But after ascending to become a 'Maker' last night, when he decided to craft the 'Amber Insect Egg' for practice, other thoughts emerged in his mind.

Sylvia smiled.

"I pray to you, begging you to bestow great power to complete this ritual... I shall offer a Sunken Soul as an Offering..."

In fact, his original plan was to divine the hideout of those swindlers and then report them to the Glamorgan Field.

Aaron grabbed a towel and wiped his face casually.

Aaron was the same.

His Spirit Body left his physical form to respond to his own prayer, performing a 'Purification' on the semi-finished Magical Item.

A 'Maker', or other Extraordinary Craftsmen, do not have a fixed order or technique when crafting Magical Items.

"However, being able to produce a semi-finished product is already quite a success... Next is to introduce the power of the ritual to thoroughly stimulate and solidify its Extraordinary Ability!"

On the contrary, the Mysterious is chaotic and disordered...

"It feels like your hair has become a bit too thick; you could have a barber come over to trim it. Besides that, your skin has become smoother and more full of Vitality."

The ability of 'Spirit Identification' allowed him to observe the remains of Luo Bo in his hand from the perspective of Spirituality and another angle.

Therefore, when crafting true Extraordinary Items, many 'Craftsmen' follow the guidance of their hearts and their own Extraordinary abilities, leading the Spirituality within the remains to take its natural course.

Aaron's pupils turned pure white in an instant.

"Yes, Young Master."

In the state of 'Spirit Identification', he saw the vast Spirituality entwined within the amber as if it had transformed into a beast, roaring and growling... while he himself became a beast tamer, attempting to guide and domesticate the Spirituality within the Amber Insect Egg so it would vent and manifest...

"The 'Bell of Lost Sounds', if my guess is correct, should have been left behind by a Non-human Existence who purely cultivated the aspect of 'Underworld'; I can try to crush and purify it..."

Sylvia was slightly surprised, but she still followed her master's instructions.

Letting secular matters be resolved in the secular world could also recover as much property as possible.

Aaron pondered for a moment: "It looks like two of the promotion materials are no longer an issue, and five more are still needed... Hmm, that shouldn't be a big problem either. At most, I'll just run a few more Slaughter Pig Schemes later, and naturally, there will be a steady stream of materials delivered to my door."

He followed his inner thoughts, and a pure white illusory flame emerged on his palm, enveloping the Amber Insect Egg and slowly burning it.

"Whew... the semi-finished product is complete."

"Hmm, perhaps it's because I've gotten used to sleeping early lately."

Although this could not raise the rank of the Magical Item, Aaron understood that it could effectively reduce the item's negative effects.

"After all, it is a legacy of Roberts, and the negative effects of creating a Magical Item are very likely to be influenced by his lingering spirit... It is not impossible for a negative effect such as 'must sacrifice the murderer who killed Roberts to use this Magical Item' to appear."
