"Forget it, I don’t expect you to find the Natural Fla. Since you’ve lived here for so long, you should be familiar with this place. Go outside, check what’s happening, and report back to ."
The Crystal-Eyed Mink finally understood.
This was very simple.
It thumped its chest with one paw, indicating it would handle it, then scampered off, disappearing into the underbrush shortly after.
Kenny Lin was pleased.
Whether he could understand its report when it returned wasn’t his imdiate concern.
He couldn’t leave, but at least soone could go out and gather information for him.
Amalia didn’t know what was happening outside, as she was focused on refining materials.
Even though she hadn’t used the Natural Fla to enhance her Original Fla, its temperature had increased considerably with her cultivation.
Having never compared herself to the Artificers of Mystic Void Continent, she always thought this was normal.
The materials that were thrown into the fla quickly refined into sothing resembling black charcoal.
This was the impurity-free part, left after removing all contaminants, finally lted into a lump.
She used parts from the Black Star Beast and the Black Crested Gorilla for this process.
So were used to repair the Sunshadow City lord’s blade, and the rest were used to refine a new weapon.
Although the other materials weren’t of the highest grade, the parts taken from the two demonic beasts were of good quality.
This ti, there were many materials to refine, mostly from two demonic beasts at the peak of the Golden Core stage, so the process was slower than usual.
Other materials, such as ores and gemstones were refined very quickly.
Finally, there were the two Golden Cores.
Typically, an Artificer would use the Golden Core of at most one peak Golden Core stage demonic beast to refine an artifact.
It was rare to use two, but Amalia used both Golden Cores in the weapon she was refining.
The fla consud one Golden Core.
Under the intense heat of her Original Fla, the Black Star Beast’s Golden Core eventually lted into a small puddle of liquid.
After refining this small puddle, only a fingernail-sized amount remained, but it contained imnse energy. With no more impurities to extract,
Amalia threw in the Black Crested Gorilla’s Golden Core as well.
Refining these two Golden Cores took the longest ti.
From sunrise to a sky filled with evening clouds.
Everything was quiet.
Amalia was undisturbed, with Kenny Lin occasionally peeking in from the cave entrance to check on her progress.
Satisfied that everything was going smoothly, he would withdraw his gaze.
During this ti, the Crystal-Eyed Mink returned repeatedly, chattering to Kenny Lin each ti, then looking expectantly at him.
Kenny Lin would nod his head with an inscrutable expression, making the Crystal-Eyed Mink think the human understood.
But then he would dash its hopes by showing he didn’t understand a word.
After several rounds of this, the Crystal-Eyed Mink grew weary and even resorted to lying on the ground in defiance.
However, after being threatened once more, it reluctantly went out to gather more information.
Thus, another day passed, and finally, new sounds suddenly erged from the cave.
Kenny Lin was listening to the Crystal-Eyed Mink relay the latest information when he heard a commotion from inside the cave.
He imdiately left the mink and rushed in.
The small cave was illuminated as brightly as day by a surge of flas.
A fla that was brighter and more intense than before, enveloped a nearly ford Artifact.
Under Amalia’s control, the Artifact slowly took shape, its surface faintly glowing with a dark luster, occasionally flickering with lightning.
"A treasure artifact?" Kenny Lin showed a look of surprise.
Above spiritual artifacts are treasure artifacts.
This artifact seed to be more than just an ordinary treasure artifact.
Kenny Lin had speculated earlier that the materials Amalia had could at most forge a high-grade spiritual artifact, but the result far exceeded his expectations.
Judging by the reaction of the artifact, when it finally took shape, its quality might be higher than that of a lower-grade treasure artifact—perhaps even a mid-grade treasure artifact.
Amalia’s forehead was covered in sweat, and she seed to be struggling to control the Artifact.
It was restless, on the verge of failure or flying out of her hands.
Kenny Lin noticed her spiritual power was waning.
Without a word, he moved behind her and transferred his own spiritual power to her.
Different cultivators often have slight variations in their spiritual power, usually carrying personal imprints that cause faint repulsion.
However, they experienced none of this.
Kenny Lin’s spiritual power flowed smoothly into Amalia’s body like a stone sinking into the sea without causing a ripple.
Noticing this, a flash of realization crossed his eyes.
This situation usually arises from one of two conditions: either the recipient is completely unguarded, making it easy to receive the power, or it is a matter of their constitution.
If it were any other ti, Kenny Lin would have confidently believed it was the forr and been quite pleased with himself.
However, considering so of Amalia’s earlier anomalies, he now thought it was more likely the latter.
His own rapid absorption of spiritual power and cultivation advancent were due to his unique constitution and the Yin-Yang Pearl.
But what was Amalia’s secret?
Her Original Fla had a temperature significantly higher than usual.
These phenona suggested she also had unknown secrets.
Since Amalia had never ntioned it, he initially thought she didn’t want to share it, so he didn’t press.
Over ti, he began to suspect she might not even be aware of the reasons herself.
With Kenny Lin’s spiritual power, the flas before Amalia grew a few inches higher.
The temperature of the flas rose, and the cave’s heat soared, turning it into a blazing furnace.
The Crystal-Eyed Mink who is standing guard outside, felt the intense heat and energy fluctuations and retreated in fear.
Having previously peeked into the cave, it knew what the other human was doing and felt the occasional energy fluctuations.
