Chapter 897: Soul Artifact
Ye Zhongming wanted to use a soul technique. After the Soul Refining Technique reached the top level, Ye Zhongming was busy with other things. He was either working with the Posthumous people or helping Cloud Peak. His time was all spent crafting weapons.
Now that he had time and Cloud Peak was safe due to the 200,000 warriors helping to defend it, he had no worries, and his desire to craft soul technique equipment couldn’t be stopped.
To him, this was a new attempt.
When creating ordinary equipment, Ye Zhongming did think about creating new things and making some small soul technique equipment like the one Ah Tao was wearing. He had also asked Ah Tao about it.
Although Ah Tao taught him about it, he was not confident. He had never created medium—to big-sized soul technique equipment. Moreover, his material was a level nine beast material. He didn’t even dare use it to craft equipment. This was the outline of a purple piece of equipment. He wanted to see how strong soul equipment could be.
At the same time, he wanted to prove his question. Could the soul equipment that he crafted be judged by the wheel??
If not, it would be okay, as it proved that soul techniques were unique to Blue Secret Realm and independent of the wheel system. But if it could, then… Ye Zhongming could prove some thoughts he had.
Creating soul equipment was much more straightforward than creating other equipment, as there was only one step: merging mental energy into materials.
It seemed simple, but Ye Zhongming knew succeeding wasn’t easy.
Firstly, the materials were hard to find.
The materials for crafting soul equipment differed from those of ordinary equipment. After all, they were going to be the mediums for mental energy, so they needed to be tough and neutral.
Typically, the materials that satisfied these conditions were at least intermediate demon monster teeth or spines or advanced demon monster teeth or bigger bone parts.
For example, Ah Tao’s bracelet was made from the teeth of demon monsters.
Next, it would be mental energy control.
As the soul equipment crafted would directly relate to the amount of mental energy that the user injected, it set a high standard for the user. One must have great control of mental energy. Not only did you need to have a huge amount of mental energy, but you also needed some talent and a lot of hard work.
Although Ye Zhongming’s Soul Refining Technique reached the top level, it didn’t mean he could craft such equipment.
Ye Zhongming had been training since the Soul Refining Technique reached the top level to reach those conditions. His control of mental energy now was quite decent.
He rubbed the level-nine demon monster bone. He didn’t know which part this was, but one thing was for sure: even before he started crafting when he placed some mental energy over the bone, this bone showed great interest in the mental energy. This showed affinity with mental energy and proved that it could absorb and store it.
As for toughness, it was level nine, so that proved everything.
Ye Zhongming started crafting after preparing everything. He was sure that he was going to craft an attacking weapon. His mental energy started to become active. As he had a huge reserve of mental energy, and it was very pure, it formed energy currents around him when he activated it.
As the material was rare, Ye Zhongming didn’t dare to be too rash. He followed the experience he got from crafting small soul artifacts. He lined up the mental energy that was more active and violent and then slowly injected it into the bone.
His mental energy left a mark on it.
This was a beautiful mark, but it wasn’t too obvious. It was as if it had naturally formed on the bone.
After the mark appeared, the mental energy followed the path of the mark and filled it up. Ye Zhongming didn’t care and allowed this magical scene to continue.
When this mark was filled with his mental energy, the bone shone. It was gentle and not eye-catching. The slightly glossy white bone became smoother and closer to a jade-white color.
This was a good start.
Ye Zhongming was motivated and started to inject more mental energy.
Another mark appeared, and it was the same as the first one. He injected more, and the glow that represented completion appeared once again.
When Ye Zhongming wanted to inject more mental energy into it, he sensed a resistance from the bone, it was as if it was full.
He thought about it and didn’t stop. He repeated this series of actions, and only after adding 15 marks did he sense that the resistance had become repulsive. He knew that he had to stop.
The glow continued to shine. The marks that had taken up 170 centimeters of the bone came to life, and they gathered at the spiral part of the bone.
Ye Zhongming picked it up and could only watch it happen. He wanted to do something, but he didn’t know what.
Very quickly, the 15 marks were squeezed onto the 50-centimeter spiral bone. The dense marks made them more apparent, but the jade-like nature of the bone made them very beautiful.
Something else shocked Ye Zhongming. The bone started to change. The bottom became sharper, like an obelisk. The top part became round and turned into a thick pillar.
The spiral part changed, too. Each turn became rounder, and it went from thick at the bottom to thin at the top. The difference wasn’t as great, but the pyramidal shape became more apparent.
When this ended, the light on the special-looking bone staff retracted, and its entire body became dull. Ye Zhongming tensed up and wondered if he had failed.
But two seconds later, a golden light shone, covering everything in the room in a layer of gold.
After which, everything calmed down. Ye Zhhongming was left with a shining bone staff.
Ye Zhongming’s eyes opened wide. Gold equipment? He had no blueprints and crafted something on the level of the Gate of Sacrifice.
This broke many of his previous thoughts and was a massive blow to his soul.
But he calmed down. Wasn’t this a good thing?
He got up with the bone staff. He wanted to test it.
But the outcome stunned him.
What was going on? No reaction?
