章 38: Nightmare Demon Pot
(Jun POV)
After I finish teaching the girls, I finally got the news that the Hong Yue family returned from a successful trip into a ruin.
It was easy to get my hands on the Nightmare Demon Pot. I just have Jian go to their house and 'congratulate' them. After talking with their Patriarch for a while, Jian steers the conversation to the treasure they found.
Once the Nightmare Demon Pot is brought up, Jian just shows interest in it and ask if they are willing to sell. It's not hard to get them to agree by trading it with a few 'hard to get' Elixirs and Potions. Once Jian got the Nightmare Demon Pot, Jian throw it into the Nexus where I was waiting. While I don't need god level growth rate demon spirits because I have the Demon of Sins, I wanted the pot so I can mutate the demon spirits to get better abilities.
The first thing I did with the Nightmare Demon Pot once I got back is compiling a book on it using the Library of Heaven's Path.
[Name: Nightmare Demon Pot
Class: Ancient Divine Artifact
Flaw 1: Incomplete
Flaw 2: Low success chance
Flaw 3: …
A refinement treasure made by an ancient tribe before the Snow Wind Empire Era. Due to the limited resources and knowledge of the time, the Nightmare Demon Pot is incomplete. In its complete state, it is able to refine Demon Spirit with close to a hundred percent success rate.]
"Who would have thought such a powerful artifact is incomplete," I said as I study the pot.
After an hour of study using my knowledge of Blacksmith, Craftsman, Inscription, Alchemy and the Library. I finally decide on the best way to complete the Nightmare Demon Pot. The pot has been saturated with energy from millions of Demon Spirits that the material of the pot mutated so the easiest method to complete it is to use Demon Spirits.
Using a treasure refinement method I learned from Mastering Blacksmith, I start to refine the Nightmare Demon Pot. Using 10,000 of the Demon Spirits I collected, I broke them down into what I call soul energy and start to refine out the impurity that is left in the pot due to its mutation. Once all the impurities are gone, the Nightmare Demon Pot will have close to 100% success.
Even with its new success rate, it's not complete yet. The next step requires another 10,000 Demon Spirits. These Demon Spirits will strengthen the Nightmare Demon Pot and bring the required amount of Demon Spirit needed to be refined down from 10 to just 3.
The Nightmare Demon Pot can be considered complete now but I know it can still be upgraded. Using 1,000 dragon bloodline demon spirits, I refine the Nightmare Demon Pot again. During the process, the Demon Pot start to change. Its original black color turns into a crimson color. The marking around the pot shifted into a new design that looks like a western dragon is facing off against an eastern dragon.
Along with the changes on the Nightmare Demon Pot, its aura starts to grow stronger and stronger until the two dragons completely formed and an aura that screams dominance explodes out from the pot. The aura was so strong that if I haven't protected my workplace with arrays, it'll probably have destroyed everything around me.
The aura gradually dies down until it completely disappears signally that the upgrade has been completed. With the upgrade, it'll have a 100% success rate but more importantly, every demon spirit that is refined will mutate into a stronger variant.
With the Nightmare Demon Pot finally complete, I can finally start refining my demon spirits. I end up using 11,000 demon spirit so I only have 2,000+ demon spirits left to refine. Since I used up all the poor and most of the ordinary growth rate demon spirits, I have about 100 ordinary growth rate, 2,000 good growth rate, and 13 excellent growth rate. 500 good and 6 excellent growth rate demon spirit have a trace of dragon bloodline.
Since I only need 3 demon spirit for every refinement, I'll need 243 poor, 81 ordinaries, 27 good, 9 excellent, or 3 extraordinary growth rate to get one god growth rate demon spirit. It's a lot better compared to the tens to hundreds of thousands needed with the original 10 demon spirits per refinement.
The first thing I try to refine is a Fang Panda. Since I want its gravity manipulation, I've been hunting the Fang Panda close to extinction The reason I still have 100 ordinary growth rate demon spirit is because I left 100 of Fang Panda to use for refinement to see what I'll get.
After only refining using only the Fang Panda, I end up with a mutated god level growth rate Fang Panda.
[Race: Fang Panda
Status: Demon Spirit
Rank: 5-Star Bronze
Flaws 1: …
1st Ability: Gravity Field - Controls a gravity field up to 81 meters
2nd Ability: 81 Power Strike - An attack backed up by the combined power of 81 normal strikes.
3rd Ability: Yang-Yin Palm - Summon Yang energy in right palm and Yin energy in the left palm to strike at enemies.]
Looking at the Fang Panda, I couldn't help but get excited at its ability. It might be because I only used Fang Panda or because it mutated a few times during the refinement process but this Fang Panda come out with stronger abilities than the one that Nie Li got. If I remember right, Nie Li's Fang Panda can only control gravity up to 5 meters.
I didn't wait to refine other demon spirits before absorbing the Fang Panda and use Steal on it. Due to my Overachiever ability, I end up with the ability
Gravity Field - Control gravity up to 100 meters(about one football field in length.)
Strength of 100 - Attack with a force of 100 strike
Yang-Yin Palm - Summon Yang energy in the right palm and Yin energy in the left palm to strike or blast at enemies
I can't wait to test out these abilities but I still have to refine the rest of these demon spirits. I refine the demon spirits that have dragon bloodline first as I want to see if their bloodline will be strengthened, it did. Every time the demon spirit goes through a mutation, their dragon bloodline will get stronger.
By the end of the refining, I end up with 19 god level growth rate demon spirits with dragon bloodline. They are mostly fire attribute dragons but I manage to get 2 that are wind attribute and 1 lightning attribute. I'll save those 3 for Ning'er.
There are 5 more elemental dragons that are not fire but the one I'm most interested in is an attributeless dragon with only one ability. Its ability is Regeneration which will allow it to fight a prolonged battle and win. I choose to absorb this dragon because it's attributeless and I wanted to see what will happen to my Demon of Sins if I absorb another bloodline.
When I steal its ability, Overachiever changes its ability to Perfect Regeneration. It didn't boost the regeneration like I thought, in fact, the regeneration is even slower than the original. In return though, it allows me to regrow any part of my body that's cut off putting me back to perfect health.
From my understanding, the speed of the regeneration is comparable to movie Deadpool when he chopped off his hand. Unlike Deadpool though, I'm pretty sure I'll be dead if someone stabs my brain, destroy my heart, or cut me in half. Not like I'm going to let anyone do any of that to me.
Following the ability, I use greed's ability Collector on the dragon bloodline demon spirit. After absorbing the bloodline, the Demon of Sins starts to change. The first to change is the wings. It changes from its bat-like look to a more draconic look. When the wings finish changing, two western dragons like horn sprout on my head.
Aside from changing how the Demon of Sins looks, I also feel that it made me stronger and faster than before. After studying the Demon of Sins some more, I conclude that this was all the changes it did. I suspect that there would've been more changes if I absorb a True Dragon. Too bad I don't have one.
