"This is a gem. I've hit the jackpot this time... Rasoul chuckled in his mind as he finished reading through the ten hidden rewards.
He proceeded to examine each item individually, determining which of his subordinates would derive the greatest benefit from each.
[Inventor's Innovation Logbook]
-- A journal chronicling ingenious inventions and discoveries, it imparts the cultivator with a knack for crafting and enhancing tools. It provides blueprints for unique gadgets and devices, fostering creativity and innovation.
"This suits someone in an engineering class. I wonder if I can select it as my subclass," He pondered inwardly, but his idea was promptly rejected by the system.
[Focus on your current classes. While this book is excellent, you already have a lot on your plate. If you feel putting it aside is a waste, consider upgrading the tier of your NecroSmith ability to unlock more options when creating or upgrading subordinates. Remember, you have more than enough upgrade passes.]
The system understood that Rasoul wanted the book to be put to good use. However, for some reason, it also recognized that Rasoul wasn't currently suited to learn from the book. Since Rasoul hasn't focused on his Sub-Class for a while, learning something new would be a waste of his time and the material at the moment.
Taking the system's advice to heart, he set the book aside and moved on to the next item.

[Abyssal Depths Chart]
-- Leading to the darkest depths of the ocean, this map reveals the location of a sunken city guarded by sea monsters. The underwater city holds a cache of lost knowledge, artifacts from a drowned civilization, and hidden underwater caves filled with magical treasures.
[Leviathan's Lair]
>>The Abyssal Depths Chart unveils the perilous path to the sunken city known as Leviathan's Lair. This underwater metropolis, hidden in the fathomless depths of the ocean, is guarded by colossal sea monsters, ancient guardians that have dwelled in the abyss for eons. These creatures, with eyes that glow like bioluminescent lanterns, stand as protectors of the submerged city and the secrets it holds.
[The Forgotten Civilization]
>>Submerging into Leviathan's Lair, explorers will uncover remnants of a forgotten civilization that once thrived beneath the waves. The architecture is a haunting blend of intricate coral structures and weathered stone buildings, testifying to an advanced society lost to the annals of time. Mysterious glyphs and symbols, etched into the walls, hint at the knowledge and magic that once permeated this underwater realm.
[Caverns of Enchantment]
>>The Abyssal Depths Chart not only reveals the sunken city but also discloses the entrance to a network of hidden underwater caverns. These caverns are filled with enchanting wonders, from luminescent plants that emit a soft, ethereal glow to crystals infused with magical energy. The air within these caverns seems to shimmer with enchantment, and it is said that those who navigate them may discover forgotten spells and ancient artifacts.
[The Siren's Archive]
>>Deep within the sunken city lies the fabled Siren's Archive, a repository of lost knowledge and arcane wisdom. Protected by mystical wards and guarded by spectral beings, this archive contains scrolls, tomes, and relics that chronicle the history and secrets of the submerged civilization. Those who dare to delve into its depths may emerge with forbidden spells and forgotten arts.
[Pearl of the Abyss]
>>The Abyssal Depths Chart pinpoints the location of the legendary Pearl of the Abyss—a massive, otherworldly pearl rumored to hold unparalleled magical power. Legends speak of its ability to amplify spells, bestow ancient wisdom, and even grant the beholder control over the denizens of the deep. However, obtaining the Pearl is no easy feat, as it is guarded by the spectral guardians and sea monsters that patrol the depths.
[Eldritch Gateway]
>>As explorers venture deeper into Leviathan's Lair, they may discover the existence of an Eldritch Gateway—a mystical portal that connects the underwater city to realms beyond. The gateway is a conduit to other dimensions, and those who master its secrets may gain the ability to traverse between the material world and eldritch realms, unveiling new mysteries and untold dangers.

"System, store this book in the most secure place and remind me when I break past the Sage Realm," Rasoul instructed the system. Weak as he may be now, he's aware that the book holds something that, if acquired, would not only enhance his own power but also empower his subordinates.
[Acknowledged]
Taking out the Mystic Rune Medallion for the Elemental Nexus, the moment it materialized, he sensed an immediate connection established between the Medallion and his ringworld—more specifically, the OmniWorld artifact he had won as the legacy left behind by Nino, the deity of war. Currently, the artifact is serving as a moon for the RingWorld.
Ding...
[Connection established between the RingWorld and Mystic Rune Medallion for the Elemental Nexus]
[Does the host wish to connect this as a moon to the RingWorld]
[Cost: 500,000,000 Fire points]
>>Yes
>>No
The system promptly presented him with the option to link the Medallion as a moon to the RingWorld.
'Why so expensive...He couldn't help but ask.
[The activation is a delicate process, demanding precise alignment and attunement to elemental frequencies. While you can use this item without such alignment, with the RingWorld acting as a conduit, a permanent connection can be established. Simply will it, and a portal will open to the Elemental Nexus, akin to the OmniWorld.]
'I am convinced. Take the fire points and merge the medallion to the Ringworld
[Merge Starting]
[Time until Completion: 10 minutes]
The medallion vanished from Rasoul's hand, seamlessly integrating into the RingWorld. Within the ringworld, the sky underwent subtle transformations. A colossal vortex, comprised of various elemental energies, began taking shape in the sky. After ten minutes, a new moon emerged, displaying a vibrant rainbow appearance, surrounded by a ring of electricity.
Ding...
[Congratulations host, a new moon has been formed in your RingWorld]
[The moon can evolve]
"Care to share the benefits I'll gain from this new moon?" he inquired after reading the system messages. Immediately he asked, details of the new moon appeared.
[Mystic Rune Medallion for the Elemental Nexus]
Benefits:
[Elemental Convergence]
>>Upon entering the Elemental Nexus, adventurers find themselves in a breathtaking realm where the elements converge in harmonious yet unpredictable patterns. Each section of the nexus is dedicated to a specific element—earth, air, fire, water, and many more. The air crackles with electric energy, flames dance gracefully, the earth pulses with raw power, and water flows with mystical fluidity.
[Trials of Mastery]
>>The map inside the medallion details the Trials of Mastery, a series of challenges within the Elemental Nexus designed to test and enhance one's control over elemental forces. These trials may include navigating treacherous landscapes influenced by the elements, solving intricate puzzles infused with elemental magic, and facing guardians who embody the raw power of each element.
[Elemental Sanctuaries]
>>Scattered across the Elemental Nexus are Elemental Sanctuaries, serene pockets of energy attuned to each element. These sanctuaries serve as places of rest and reflection, allowing adventurers to meditate and harness the elemental energies to unlock latent abilities related to earth manipulation, aerokinesis, pyromancy, or hydrokinetic prowess.
[Tempest Forge]
>>At the heart of the Elemental Nexus lies the Tempest Forge, a mystical crafting station where the Mystic Rune Medallion can be used to forge elemental artifacts. These artifacts, imbued with the essence of the Nexus, grant wielders enhanced control over specific elemental powers. Crafting these artifacts requires a deep understanding of the elemental balance within the Nexus.
[Elemental Ascendance]
>>Those who successfully navigate the Elemental Nexus and overcome its trials may achieve Elemental Ascendance. This mystical state allows individuals to temporarily fuse with the elemental forces, gaining unparalleled mastery over their chosen element. However, wielding such power comes with a price, as the elemental energies may leave lasting imprints on the adventurer's psyche, challenging their sense of self.
'Wow, this is great. I suppose I won't have to worry about finding suitable environments for cultivating the elements and the Laws. With the medallion and OmniWorld, I can enhance my mastery at the highest speed possible.'
He is beyond grateful for the artifacts currently in his possession. The system started making sure Rasoul got all the basic items he would need to become very strong. It doesn't want to freely give these items as that will destroy the Rude and wicked persona it has going on so instead it starts giving Rasoul quests and uses the hidden rewards to award him such artifacts.
Moving on to the next message, what he saw might not have seemed like much at the moment, but soon he would discover that it was perhaps the most valuable item in his possession.
