??Jacob's lips curled up, "So you weren't blocked, but afraid. Got it. Now on to main business, tell
how much space I need to set up the ritual array formation!"
Immortika clearly didn't mind Jacob's jeering words, nor did it refute them, as it replied like usual, "Heh, afraid or not, you'll know in the future, and trust , I'll be there when you figure it out!
"Anyhow, as you said, on the main business. Since you have already collected all 36 elent cores, all you need to do is to correctly arrange those cores exactly as the diagram in the scripture. This room should be enough.
"You can also draw an outline before setting them up, and then all you need to do is to sit in the core of the array formation. It will automatically trigger the mont your cursed mark is detected.
"The cursed mark is actually the key to activating this ritual formation. Without it, it's nothing but a drawing.
"A fair warning, though, there are four phases of the final level, Activation, Spread, Incorporate, and finally, Cursed Heart Condensing. You won't feel pain in the first and second phases. But when the incorporate phase starts, you will feel an unimaginable pain far worse than you felt when you complete the second level.
"You have to endure the pain while remaining conscious because the mont you lose your consciousness, the ritual will stop, and all the elent cores will turn into dust after creating a terrifying explosion.
"Afterward, you have to collect the cores all over again if you managed to survive that it. As for the last phase, it will all depend on yourself whether you can cross it…hahahah!"
Jacob felt a chill run down his spine when reading the part about the pain and explosion and the subtle fourth phase. He had this feeling before that he won't be getting out of it without pain and could only sigh and succumb to his fate.
"Thanks for the heads-up." Jacob sneered coldly before he turned the page.

______
Jacob opened the Ritual Array Formation diagram, which was in the shape of a large pentagram, and within this pentagram were triangular points. All he had to do was to arrange the cores as described according to the diagram.
There were even magic core elents and levels described on each point, so there wasn't any room for error.
Jacob quickly sprang into action as he first drew the outline of the diagram on the cave floor and then carefully started to place the elent orbs, one after another.
The dark cave was lit in colorful lights at this mont as a thick elent aura filled the air.
With shimring eyes, Jacob looked at the empty center within the colorful cores, and he knew the mont he sat there, the ritual would start.
"This is it, right?" Jacob questioned sternly.
"Yes, there is no error. Now hurry up before those low-level elent cores run out of elent power, and oh… don't die. I don't want to be in this cave!" Immortika wrote.
"Hmph!" Jacob sneered coldly before his clothes started to vanish from his body. He was now completely naked, and only the infinity pendant remained around his neck.
Jacob then approached the center of the ritual array formation and sat down.
The very next mont thereafter, Jacob felt a throb in his heart, and the magic cores suddenly started to glow brightly.
Colorful lines started to condense from the magic cores, and one by one, those magic cores connected with the magic cores one after another. When the formation was completed, the entire cave was glowing.
However, Jacob's expression was rigid because the mont the formation was active, he felt like he was stuck in his spot as he couldn't move despite trying.
The circle where Jacob was sitting started to light in all kinds of light at this mont before those multiple lights started to eclipse each other until nothing but the black color was left!
Jacob felt palpitation in his heart as he clearly felt a dark, coldness start to seep into his body and slowly cover every inch of his immobilized body. His calm heart suddenly started to race, and he had no control over it whatsoever!
Thereafter, Jacob clearly feels the coldness in his body start to gather within his heart as the formation shines brightly. Soon, Jacob's entire body felt icy. He even imagined himself being frozen slowly.
But he didn't lose focus since he knew this was just the beginning.
Within Jacob's body, a dark infinity symbol was shining in a dark sheen as it was slowly getting inkier. Most importantly, it was spreading, covering Jacob's crimson heart in its inky black color from the inside out.
The more the cured mark spread, the colder Jacob felt.
He had never thought when Immortika said the first and second phases were not painful, it ant they were even worse than pain. Because if this coldness kept increasing, he might lose his mind before he could endure any pain.
But the strange thing was there was no sign of freezing, and Jacob could also see this, so he told himself that it was rely an illusion and endured.
However, when an hour passed, Jacob felt like he was sitting at the bottom of an icy lake, and he couldn't even move. His breathing was heavy, and he couldn't feel his body or heart at this mont.
But everything changed when the third phase started!
