Given your current level, this condition can be met soon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Secondly, you must create an alchemical creature with autonomous consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Note, this is not simple golem creation, but the making of true artificial life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This creature must have independent thinking ability, emotional responses, and even the potential for self-evolution.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron thought of his \"Ink,\" that Autophagic Slime Monster had indeed demonstrated a certain level of intelligence, but achieving \"autonomous consciousness\" might still be quite distant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thirdly, you must master at least one ancient technique that has been lost to time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These techniques are often recorded in forbidden tomes or hidden in some special ruins.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fourth condition caused Ron’s brow to furrow slightly: \"Lost ancient technique?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Soul forging, consciousness weaving, time shaping...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The King of Illusions’ voice echoed within the depths of his consciousness, each word like sharp fragments slicing the edges of his spiritual protection:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Masters of these techniques have long vanished in the river of time.
