Chapter 415
“I refuse . ”
The Fire Spirit flatly rejected the Tri-Spirit’s offer, clearly unwilling to merge with another kin . it was surprising to see a Spirit with three attributes, however, that doesn’t mean it wants to abandon itself and leave this place .
“Now now, don’t be so hasty . I’m sure the benefits outweigh the cons, listen to what I have to say first . ”
Arthur and Lucy retreated to the back as to give some ’privacy’ to the two spirits . His Tri-Spirit assured him that it’ll greatly help him and told him to wait for some time .
They already got the consent of the Fire Spirit so they went to retrieve the Raging Soul bead, which isn’t that important since it can grow up again .
They won’t take the whole flower but just the bead, which is more than enough for them . This was the perfect place for Lucy to try and merge the two beads . It was a dangerous place devoid of people, no one would dare to climb the mountain if they’re not strong enough thus the couple decided to remain here for a few days until Lucy successfully completes the fusion .
The two sat at the top of the mountain, Arthur meditating and Lucy sitting cross-legged holding the two beads, each in one hand .
Strange-colored flames enveloped the two beads, slowly harmonizing with the energy inside of them . The process was difficult, to say the least, as beads of sweat trickled down her forehead as she tried her best to slowly achieve the impossible .
The mysterious flames which are composed of both Fire and Ice, would rotate between white and blue, slowly condensing around the beads, melting them .
Fortunately, Lucy had an incredibly large Mana pool so she wasn’t afraid of consuming it all any time soon . After a few hours, Arthur finished his meditation and gazed at his wife, who was still meticulously forging the soul-protecting items .
Losha bestowed her a common technique which facilitated the fusion by a lot . Although it looked easy from the outside, to fuse two opposite attributes is impossible, more so if they’re inside powerful items .
Arthur circled around her then started drawing on the ground, soon creating a supportive formation . Its only function was to smoothen the control of Mana and enhance its recovery .
Then, he used [Mana Transmission], [Mana augmentation], and [Magic Enhancement] to boost the quality of Lucy’s Mana .
A short time later, an excited floating square hopped toward him while saying
“Master! It’s done!”
“Good . What should I do?”
“Wait, not only will we fuse with it but you’ll also be able to get the dragon’s blood but only for one condition . ”
“Condition?”
“It’s nothing too dangerous . You’ll have to take the mountain with you . ”
Arthur’s could’ve sworn he misheard the Tri-Spirit . He furrowed his brows and tilted his head in confusion, not understanding the meaning of the spirit’s words .
“This mountain is like a home to the Fire Spirit, a sacred place . It agreed to merge with us if we take the mountain with us . ”
“Take the mountain? How is that even possible . ”
“I believe that the strange cube in your consciousness can do that . ”
There are some treasures that have a separate dimension that can store worlds inside of them . Zodiak’s storage is one of them, however, Arthur doesn’t know how to do that .
The ARK, being controlled by Claud, is more than enough to store the huge mountain in that endless white space .
’Ugh… is that even necessary?’
The Prophecy Holder didn’t object but he seemed unwilling and unhappy with the condition . Before Arthur could ask him, he started talking on his own .
’Well, since it’ll be beneficial to you, there’s nothing I can do about it… I’ll take the damned mountain . Tch! Such a waste of space . ’
Arthur was guided inside deep into the lava, exactly next to a drop of blood which shone brightly in that dark environment .
The Tri-Spirit and Fire Spirit faced each other, before the former starting emitting an unstoppable suction power, slowly absorbing the non-resistant spirit .
’Never did I think I would see a Spirit with four attributes . I guess this is a huge gain for you . ’-Claud
Arthur patiently waited as the Fire Spirit slowly became integrated with his Tri-Spirit . The three triangles, which merely made up one attribute each, separated themselves as a new red-colored triangle appeared .
A long amount of time passed before the four triangles joined together, forming another complete square, the new form of the Quad-Spirit, formally named Beelzebub by Arthur .
Although his stats didn’t increase, his cultivation leaped from Little Sovereign to the peak of High Sovereign . It was still locked due to the restrictions of the Secret Realm, however, he could see the changes through his Status Window .
Fire-oriented skills will do 20% more damage to all enemies .
The user ’Arthur MoonStar’ will receive 30% less damage from the Dragon Breath of Empyrian Dragons .
The user ’Arthur MoonStar’ will receive 20% less damage from the Dragon Breath of Geo Dragons .
The user ’Arthur MoonStar’ will receive 10% less damage from the Dragon Breath of Black Dragons .
+100 Creation .
It is now possible to create Red Spirit Stones with [Lost Magic] .
Cooldown: none
Cost: 1 Mental Power or 1m Mana or 500,000 Nether Energy .
The user ’Arthur MoonStar can create several new things with [Lost Magic]
LIST: Very small Atomic bomb – Advanced Combat Lasers – …
The new additions were much welcomed by Arthur, who read everything then stretched his hand, creating the Atomic Bomb . It was barely the size of his fist, however, its might isn’t to be underestimated . Although Sovereigns and God Monarchs use Nether Energy to shield themselves, an Atomic Bomb can still cause considerable damage .
An atomic bomb gets its energy from fission – or the splitting of an atom . It doesn’t use any Mana or Nether Energy and it can kill an unprepared Sovereign .
For example, a Wind Rinotsu can cause the same damage as this small Atomic Bomb . A Wind Rizaki can cause ten times the damage . To be precise, a Fire Rizaki cause three times the destruction of an Atomic Bomb .
But… what if an Atomic Bomb is infused with Energy? Arthur quickly got his answer as the small bomb crumbled into dust .
’Science and Magic are not compatible . To use them together is nothing but wishful thinking . Although Magic is an easier way to reach the apex, Science is definitely superior . In the System universe, there are airships that can obliterate stars and slaughter Overgods then again, they are pretty sparse and difficult to create . ’
When all was done, much of the lava that boiled inside of the mountain vanished, leaving only the unbearable heat . With anticipation, Arthur gazed at the drop of blood before him .
To absorb the drop of blood is easier said than done, fortunately, he can turn [Pain Immunity] so he doesn’t have to go through the agony .
’A dragon’s blood is precious . Not only does it remodel the body, it greatly enhances the consumer’s cultivation and the attribute related to the dragon . In your case, your body is already beyond powerful so it will not be remodeled, however, the increase of fire affinity will drastically the damage done by any fire-oriented skill . The Vermilion Bird’s skills will be able to totally annihilate any God Monarch, even Half-Over Gods will suffer . ’
’Do you think I can face an Overgod right now?’
Claud burst out in laughter when he heard that .
’Do you think Overgods are that simple? They can destroy whole planets and pulverize stars . I dare say you can survive one or two blows from them but to defeat them is impossible, for now, at least . There are also 8-star or above God Monarchs, they can demonstrate a power that transcends their realm . The world is filled with many wonders, Overgods are not the only powerful beings in the multiverse . Each Universe has a different system to gauge a person’s strength . In the System, it’s by level . For example, a person who reaches Lv10,000 can face an Overgod . While the first thousand levels are easy, it becomes much, much harder to level up after that . Reaching Lv10,000 is harder than becoming an Overgod . ’
’What about the Heaven and Hell Universe? How do they gauge someone’s power?’
’Well… it’s their method is strange and unorthodox, plus, not many people go there due to the conflict between angels and demons . ’
After readying himself, Arthur stretched his hand and grabbed the blood droplet, pulling it towards him with all his strength . At first, it strongly resisted him but quickly succumbed once he used the ancient flames .
To consume the dragon’s blood, he just has to swallow it, literally, which proved to be a more difficult task than he had imagined .
He could feel a scorching heat go down his throat only for it to disappear when the pain immunity was activated . He could, however, still feel uncomfortable as his body started shaking .
The ominous dark aura around his Dantian reacted to the incoming blood and enveloped it, forcefully dragging it to the center, where a malevolent black energy started to consume it, slowly weakening it and merging it with Arthur’s body .
