Chapter 1283: Purification and Dispersal

Faleau truly suffered a lot. He was wounded dozens of times every day. The exhaustion of mana was not a problem, as there was plenty of it in the Demiplane. The wounds could be healed easily too as long as he didn’t lose his head.

After a month of torture, plus the studies on the truth runes, Faleau had been upgraded to a level-7 Archmage. Also, thanks to Lin Yun’s help, it was much easier for Faleau to grasp laws in the Demiplane than in the outside world.

When Faleau almost couldn’t persist any longer, Lin Yun finally ended the training, though not entirely satisfied. He then opened the treasury in his Demiplane, and asked Faleau to pick materials and craft his own True Spirit Magic Tool.

Every mage had different core meditation laws, Magic Conducting Runes, and specialties. Their personalities were different too. It was impossible to unleash 100% of their power if they used a True Spirit Magic Tool someone else crafted.

The True Spirit Magic Tool that they crafted for themselves would naturally be 100% fit for them, and it could display 120% of their power in battles.

Looking at Lin Yun’s treasury that didn’t seem very large from the outside, Faleau remained peaceful, but after it was opened, Faleau was completely dumbfounded.

In front of him was a boundless square with rows of shelves that were 100 meters tall. There were even glittering numbers in the sky that marked different areas.

At the entrance of the treasury, there was a crystal table, on which a ball of light floated.

“Lay your hand on the ball, and see what you need. You can take whatever you need from here. I suggest you make a staff and two True Spirit Magic Tools for yourself. You’re the one who knows what you need, and how you should do it.”

After saying that, Lin Yun turned around and left. Faleau swallowed. Even though he had seen a lot of good stuff as the Gilded Rose’s manager, he was overwhelmed with disbelief when he saw the treasury.

After he laid his hand on the ball of light, and read the information of the items in the treasury, Faleau was stunned for quite a few minutes.

“Abyss Water, the Demon Unicorn’s horn, the Fire Demon’s heart… There are so many ultimate materials from the abyss. You can’t find so many ultimate abyss materials even in all the auctions in Noscent…

“There are also Troy Gems, Crimson Gems, Elemental Ambers…

“Unbelievable. This is the most complete treasury of materials. Oh, damn. There’s even Eternal Dark Gold. Oh my God. Such pure Eternal Dark Gold. Did Sir Merlin find a few large Eternal Dark Gold mines?”

It took Faleau half an hour to just sort out the materials. Many of the materials were even unknown to him. He had to read their detailed introductions to know what they were for. Most of the materials were from the abyss, and couldn’t be found in Noscent.

The Abyssal Magic Iron, which was so common in the abyss that every demon built their fortress with it, was a rare resource in Noscent, not to mention the materials that had never been seen in Noscent before…

Faleau couldn’t remain calm any longer. Like a hungry man who hadn’t eaten in a long time seeing hundreds of tables of delicious food, he lunged at the treasures…

Three days later, Faleau left Lin Yun’s treasury in satisfaction with a bunch of materials. It was more of a warehouse with top materials than a treasury. What Lin Yun collected as treasures was only Extraordinary Magic Tools and materials…

After all, Lin Yun could create any True Spirit Magic Tool or anything else that he needed.

After training and improving Faleau, Lin Yun took out a lot of good stuff, and offered it to the Gilded Rose. Many of the items were obtained from the Gilded Rose. They were rewards for the Gilded Rose’s employees, especially the alchemists that had been working here since the Gilded Rose opened in Andlusa. All of them got good materials that they couldn’t buy.

For an alchemist, techniques and materials were always more important than magic tools.

Lin Yun kept the precious materials that weren’t easy to get in his treasury for the Shelter Tower that he was going to build in the future. He shared all the other materials. His every follower got a lot.

The Gilded Rose kept expanding steadily, and Lin Yun stayed in his Natural Demiplane for studies. After the recent improvement, he was able to study more of the truth runes. Ever since the gathering in the Starry Sky College, he had studied 1,000 truth runes, which had all been melted into the Demiplane.

To be more exact, they were melted into the pillar of the Natural Demiplane. However, their influence on the Natural Demiplane didn’t dwindle. The laws of earth, fire, water, and wind were already evolving in different branches very fast. Considering the speed, by the time he studied 5,000 truth runes, they would evolve into a gigantic tree from a sapling.

By then, the laws of earth, fire, water, and wind would be no different from those in a complete world. Even though the Natural Demiplane was significantly smaller than a real world, they would be the same when it came to laws.

After the truth runes were melted into the pillar, the pillar became more and more powerful. It had essentially changed. Inside the mountain, the ordinary soil had been replaced by rocks. There were even metals growing there.

There was no telling what the pillar would grow into in the end.

After studying the truth runes, and melting them into his Demiplane, Lin Yun began to modify Pabiete. During the month in the Puppet Plane with Agalon, he had collected a lot of parts that could be applied to Pabiete. Even the unsuitable parts could still be modified with other materials and applied to Pabiete.

Those parts and materials were all from level-45 alchemy puppets, and were perfect for alchemy puppets to use. Pabiete was only in level 43 at this moment. It seemed truly extravagant to apply those parts to it…

But Lin Yun didn’t find it extravagant at all. Pabiete’s wisdom had been awakened again, but the key part in its memory system had been sealed. The most important thing was to improve Pabiete’s level, and remove the seal on its memory system.

During the modification, its control system and its engine system were improved. A lot of black substance was added to its swallowing system. All its parts, critical or not, were replaced by better versions.

After the modification, Pabiete was improved to the peak of level 44, very close to level 45. The tiny gap was not because of the parts being a problem, but because they weren’t fitted well yet.

Pabiete carried three talent runes that had to be adjusted to its body. The new parts needed adjustment too before they fitted into the body perfectly. Pabiete’s level wouldn’t rise to 45 until all its parts became perfectly compatible with each other.

This time, Lin Yun had focused on improving Pabiete’s agility. Having stayed in the Puppet Plane and fought for a month, Lin Yun gained a better understanding of the Heaven Rank battles and the advantages and disadvantages of alchemy puppets.

Level wasn’t the most important thing. Even strength wasn’t the most important thing. The most important thing was to hit the enemy in battle.

Back in the Puppet Plane, Lin Yun had confronted a level-46 alchemy puppet which boasted the talent of critical hit. It was so strong that Lin Yun would surely die as long as it hit him. However, after a day of fighting, Lin Yun didn’t die, because all of its attacks were futile…

Alchemy puppets fought according to the guidance of their battle system. Even though the Heaven Rank alchemy puppets had awakened their wisdom, they could still count on the battle system’s help. The stronger an alchemy puppet was, the less dependent they would be on the battle system.

Because of this feature, it was very easy to infer what an alchemy puppet would do, especially for Lin Yun who had a Magic Array and a Ten Thousand Spell Wheel. He could kill alchemy puppets that were two levels stronger than him, and escape from those that were three levels stronger.

If he had fought a real Heaven Rank mage with that strength, he would’ve died a million times…

After Pabiete’s upgrade, the seal on its memory system was further loosened. Unfortunately, judging from the trend, Pabiete wouldn’t be able to fully remove the seal until it rose to level 47 or level 48.

After upgrading Pabiete, Lin Yun began to study the black substance. Agalon didn’t explain what the black substance was, but he told him where it was from.

Remembering the Merlin Family’s ancient path, Lin Yun felt an urge to explore it, but it was just an urge.

Agalon strongly suggested that he shouldn’t go to the space battlefield just yet. Last time, in the depths of the ancient path, he had detected unimaginably strong experts fighting and even the destruction of a star…

That battle was so destructive that he would’ve been torn into pieces by its aftermath even if he had just observed it from the sidelines.

Although he was curious, Lin Yun didn’t intend to go to the space battlefield at the risk of death. In the future, there would be hundreds of experts whose names would be left in history, yet they all went missing after setting off to the boundless void…

Lin Yun continued studying the black substance, but to no avail. He tried many ways, but was unable to figure out what the black substance was, why it could swallow mana, or where the mana it swallowed went to.

He let a piece of black substance the size of a fist swallow a level-39 mana crystal. There was no obvious change in the black substance. He let it swallow a bottle of mana water, but it didn’t change, either.

A bottle of mana water was more than enough for Lin Yun to completely replenish his mana. It contained such an astronomical amount of mana that it could power dozens of normal level-9 spells.

Also, because of the black substance’s features, almost no detection spells worked on it at all. Lin Yun even created a machine that wouldn’t be invented until 8,000 years later, but he was still unable to track down the swallowed mana…

Seated in his lab, Lin Yun watched the black substance swallow mana while frowning. He had tried many methods, but reached no conclusion. He couldn’t even tell what the black substance was, or how to use it. Only the swallowing system on the alchemy puppet could make use of the black substance…

Unable to proceed, Lin Yun abandoned the research for now. He decided that he should continue perfecting the magic electromagnetic cannon. The moment he took out the cannonball, Lin Yun was stunned…

Right, because of the black substance’s features, it was impossible to study with magic methods. But why did he have to use magic methods?

The magic electromagnetic cannon was created in light of the electromagnetic cannon’s mechanism, but it was still very primitive at this moment. Both the electromagnetic tracks and the cannonball weren’t perfect yet. They were only so powerful because he had strengthened them with law runes and extraordinary power.

If the electromagnetic cannon could be perfected, would it be possible to create special tools to study the black substance from a different perspective? For example, a microscope?

The optical microscope, in particular, didn’t depend on any magic power during the observation…

Lin Yun felt a headache as he thought of that. He knew the basic mechanism of the optical microscope, but he didn’t know how to make one at all. Fortunately, he had the power of magic…

After three days, he was finally able to create a half-meter-tall microscope with the power of magic and alchemy. It could magnify a hair hundreds of times after adjustment. When he plucked a hair, and observed it with the microscope, he saw a halo around his hair, which was a feature of a natural-born extraordinary creature…

After exploring and trying for more than half a month, he finally created an enormous optical microscope that could magnify an item 800,000 times.

Lin Yun took one-tenth of a drop of black substance, and put it under the microscope. He saw a surface that looked like the smoothest magic silk. Although he was unable to see the specific structure, he could already see the surface clearly.

He continued processing the black substance with ordinary alchemy technology, and divided a drop of black substance into hundreds. He then stretched and flattened one piece before he observed again. He saw the congregation of countless tiny black spots. Also, they weren’t very clear. Without careful observation, they would still seem to be a black surface.

Seeing that, Lin Yun was thrilled. After such a long time, he was finally making progress. He could even see with the microscope that while the black substance was swallowing the mana like a bottomless hole, its speed wasn’t as high as when it was a large ball.

It matched the conclusion of his previous research. The more black substance, the faster it would swallow mana.

After figuring out the components of the black substance, Lin Yun had an idea. According to his theory, the more black substance, the greater its swallowing power. Conversely, the less black substance, the smaller the swallowing power.

Density was what mattered. What if the density of the black substance was endlessly lowered in a certain range?

Thinking about that, Lin Yun came up with more than 30 methods.

Not all materials were readily usable. For most materials, the purer they were, the better they would be. In such a case, their error would be small, and could be tolerated in usage.

However, in more than 10,000 years, countless new materials would appear every year. A lot of those materials were very valuable.

Take the Tungsten Manganese Gold for example. There was a lot of it in Noscent, but at this moment, it was just a lowly material that nobody was interested in. Mages wouldn’t use it at all. Only ordinary people might use it when they crafted weapons.

Pure Tungsten Manganese Gold could increase a weapon’s elasticity. However, it would be garbage if its purity was lower than 99%…

Things never changed until 10,000 years later, when a refiner was purifying a new material that wouldn’t be discovered in a new plane until 7,000 from now, and he accidentally dropped a drop of Tungsten Manganese Gold onto it.

Then, a new material appeared!

At that moment, the alchemists who had been blindly pursuing purity realized that if a gram of secret silver was added to a kilogram of star iron, a new material that was much better than star iron would be generated. One drop of the Lava Crocodile’s tears, dissolved in 10,000 kilograms of pure water, could generate a new fusion agent…

If a material was dissolved and separated, its performance might be better. Did the rule apply to the black substance?

If one drop of black substance was evenly distributed in a space that was hundreds of times bigger, would the black substance’s ability of swallowing mana be weakened? Would it even lose the ability of swallowing mana?

Thinking about that, Lin Yun devoted himself to studies with the ecstasy of an alchemist. The method to create a fusion agent had already been etched into his head. He simply didn’t need any of that yet. Besides, many of the new materials required raw materials that couldn’t be found yet.

A lot of new materials and ores wouldn’t be obtained until Noscent’s age of colonization.

Lin Yun had never planned to use this method so quickly, because the Gilded Rose was still on the rise. It should be safer for him to release the new material when the Gilded Rose grew powerful enough.

After configuring the fusion agent, Lin Yun immediately started running experiments with all the materials he had.

23 days later, Lin Yun looked at a piece of metal with a complicated expression.

After so many days of experiments, where so many precious materials were wasted, the only material that succeeded was actually the Abyssal Magic Iron…
