i was still testing the Cauldron, with each experint she got a better grasp over it and things got even more crazy.
The Pill Refining Chamber was pretty much the arch nesis of anyone who appreciated skill.
It allows you to refine the lowest grades of Pills without any pressure. You didn't need to use Divine Sense, you didn't need to ti it, the Pills would form themselves as long as the Herbs were of high purity and well-prepared.
This mightily upset i, but there were things even more ridiculous than that.
'No wonder that anyone who inherits this thing is chased over the whole Immortal World.' i's face scrunched up when she saw the effects.
When one Forged their armour, weapon, or any kind of tool, then you could also imbue it with the effects of the Pills.
The effects would be permanent, albeit weak, but the most ridiculous part was still yet to co.
Everyone knows that if you create a masterpiece, your tool gets blessed by the Auspicious Clouds.
Everyone also knows that if you create a Pill of Heavenly Quality, then it would also get blessed and its effect would greatly increase.
Now is where the ridiculous part cos in.
The tool gets blessed for being a masterpiece, the Pill gets blessed for being of Heavenly Quality, but since it is already mixed with the tool, the tool would get that blessing instead.
That was not a simple 2*2, the amplification was much more powerful!
The effect you would get from sothing like that would be the sa as what you would get from the Pill and the tool would be even able to jump to higher stages!
It was completely ridiculous! As long as the craftsman was good enough, you could be running with a universal antidote Pill around all the ti without running out!
What about the Pills that restored Vitality?! Made it happen!
What about Pills that restore severed limbs?! No problem!
What about Pills that restore your Qi?! We got you covered!
i was so upset, but it also explained a lot of things.
So of her enemies were seemingly immortal, but if they got their hands on such a tool or armour, it was not out of the question.
An armour that constantly heals you?
A weapon that constantly poisons with a myriad of different poisons?
A tool that restored your Qi?
Everything would be possible given enough ti and materials.
Suddenly, i shuddered. She realised that Aiko had this all the ti, but thankfully her skills were not good enough to be blessed.
However, once that ti ca...
"I need vacation..." i groaned and accidentally voiced her inner thoughts.
"You can just rest, don't overwork yourself." Moon Aiko patted her back gently.
"I'm fine." i pursed her lips. She was in such a bad position that she was now speaking her mind?! That can't be happening!
"You should rest." Moon Aiko said seriously and convinced i to sit down and rest.
"You know that you have the craziest things, right?" i stared at her blankly, but it was obvious she was intimidated by Aiko's ans to acquire such powerful objects.
"Yeah, but they are all nice and fine as long as we can use them." Moon Aiko didn't need to conceal things from i, since she now knew that it wouldn't hurt her.
She could give her all the resources that she could get from the system until i was satisfied~!
"You are making quite the scary face." i comnted before sighing.
Moon Aiko ignored i's words and handed over a piece of paper. "What do you think about this?"
Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.
On it, there was an elaborate schematic about flying ships and the [The Ever Shaping Cauldron].
When i looked over it, she quickly realised that that Cauldron was very familiar.
Looking over the Cauldron that she created with clay-dirt, she was touched that Moon Aiko used it in her plans.
"Why are there five of them? They barely fit..." i narrowed her eyes. It was obvious Aiko was overdoing it, but for so reason this ti i didn't mind it.
"One is for Pills, two for purifying and two for slting." Moon Aiko gestured while counting on her fingers.
"Why the Pill one?" i tilted her head. She couldn't quite understand what Aiko was hinting at.
She did understand the others' thoughts. The double purifier was probably to make the tals extra pure and thus even easier to store.
The slting one was obvious because it took most of the ti.
"So that they can get enhancing Pills that would help them with the digging." Moon Aiko gestured, like she already planned this.
"These Arrays won't work. The flying ship wouldn't allow it." i corrected Aiko, since it seed like she had the wrong assumption about Arrays.
"Huh? But it should be fine?" Moon Aiko knew that this should work, so why wouldn't it?
"No, it would definitely work. On the ground." i chuckled, patting Aiko. "Once you are in the sky, most elents can't be used and the balance changes every mont.
"Is that why most things are done with Inscriptions, while only so things with Arrays?" Moon Aiko tilted her head. She thought that would make sense, but then why include Arrays when you could just have Inscriptions?
"You need to understand how those interact." i smiled softly. "First one would be Inscriptions. You can imagine them as logic based bricks from which you build your elaborate house."
"Depending on your skill, that house can be placed anywhere with a little bit of tweaking and enough surface space." i doodled a cute picture of a house and other parts that were purely based on logic.
"That does make sense." That was probably why Moon Aiko liked it the most. If you have the knowledge, you could just build anything you want.
Of course, it had derits, but what didn't have one?
"anwhile, Arrays are very different. They are like rivers. As long as you don't stir them too much or speed them too much, then they will work as long as you supply the 'water'." i licked her lips. "In so cases you can even use the Dragon Veins, but it's still better to use them to produce Spirit Stones." She shook her head softly.
"But can't you affect the rivers?" Moon Aiko tilted her head.
"And what would happen if you tried to restrict the river too much?" i chuckled.
"Ah, it would just find a way to screw you over." Moon Aiko nodded her head seriously.
"..." i blinked a few tis, clearly not expecting that kind of answer. "That's one way to put it."
"Then how about Formations?" Moon Aiko was curious how i would describe that one.
"Formations are pretty much trying to take those rivers and forcibly making them do your bidding. For a limited ti they are very powerful, but the longer it goes on..." i trailed her words, but it was obvious what she was trying to say.
"It feels like this whole thing was once a single thing. Then soone got disgruntled and said: Nuh-uh, mine is better! And branched out." Moon Aiko scrunched her pretty face. She was convinced that they were once the sa thing, considering the Runes used were also the sa, with just slightly altered anings.
"That is difficult to say." i shook her head.
Nobody knew if the whole thing was once a single thing. Most monsters didn't live long enough to tell the tale, so it was difficult to find any kind of concrete evidence.
"It must be pretty old if even you don't know anything about it." Moon Aiko was surprised that there was sothing that i didn't know.
"I would prefer it if you spared ." i obviously didn't like talking about age, since this was her second life.
"Eh." Moon Aiko shrugged, teasing i further.
"Rascal!" i ruffled Aiko's hair before turning towards her blueprint.
"Since you are more proficient with Inscriptions. It's better if you slap those on the chains and ignore the Arrays. They need the Array Core, while Inscriptions just need ink." i explained.
"But wouldn't those chains beco vulnerability that can easily take down the whole structure?" It would be a ss if Moon Aiko spent so much ti on it, only for a Cultivator to pass and cut those chains.
"We can reinforce them further by faintly connecting them." i suggested, since she was familiar with such techniques.
"But that wouldn't really decrease the vulnerability." Moon Aiko shook her head. She believed it would be better to suspend with Arrays rather than Inscriptions.
"You are underestimating what you achieved." i chuckled. "Your Inscriptions are on another level, so have so more pride and work on it more."
"Fine." Moon Aiko pouted at her. She was slightly dissatisfied since she had more to offer than just Inscriptions.
"It's a temporary thing." i soothed her again, since she knew this might be hard on Aiko.
"I know I can add them later, but it just feels cheap..." Moon Aiko pursed her lips.
"You need to study and research more for you to be able to complete it." i shook her head again.
"I know. I just honestly don't want to sink so much ti into it." It was enough that Moon Aiko's toys took so much ti to create, so she was trying to take it easy for a while.
"Eh." i shrugged, not saying more and just observing the blueprints.
"The insides are quite empty..." i looked over at her, playing with the molten tals.
"Maximum storage~!" Moon Aiko gave her thumbs up.
"It's pretty much a skeleton with nothing inside..." i questioned if she really saw that correctly.
"Yeah, isn't it better to have more storage? We can even reinforce the hull so that others couldn't steal it all that easily." Moon Aiko explained her reasoning.
"But it's too much storage, and where will you house your workers?" i shook her head. With this Aiko would look like a slave trader instead of a genuine one.
"Hey!" Moon Aiko pouted. "Are you forgetting that there are two of them?"
"Oh? So you intend to have one as purely accommodation, while the other one as purely storage?" i raised her eyebrows. She kind of understood where Aiko was going with this, but...
"It's not just about that. Specialised accommodation doesn't mix well with storage." Moon Aiko shook her head.
The reason being was that space expansion worked very differently with living beings instead of just ore, so it was better to do it like this.
Well, the blueprint could always be adjusted once she learned even more about Runes, but for now, this would do...
