Chapter 968 – Divine Blood
Zero Wing’s Residence, Guild Leader’s Office:
After the crimson crystalline door absorbed 1,000 God Crystals, its two panels slowly opened, and the divine runes engraved on them gradually lit up. A moment later, lines of runes appeared in the opened door.
One line… Two lines… Three lines…
With each line of divine rune that appeared, the Alchemy Door’s Divine Might grew stronger, eventually reaching a peak when the runes formed three golden sheets of paper.
What powerful Divine Might! Shi Feng was shocked by the mental impact the Alchemy Door’s Divine Might had on him.
When he first came across the Alchemy Door in the Philosopher’s Tower, it already exuded Divine Might rivaling that of Ancient Gods. The average Tier 6 player would be immobilized in its presence. But now, the Alchemy Door’s Divine Might was already close to matching that of Kalisha after she had fully recovered and returned to her peak.
Kalisha, the Dragon Princess, undoubtedly had the Primordial Dragon Bloodline. Although she was only at Tier 6, she could be considered among the closest existences to Primordial Gods. Yet, despite being an inanimate object, the Alchemy Door could exude Divine Might that nearly matched Kalisha’s. Shi Feng couldn’t even begin to imagine how powerful the First-Generation Philosopher was to be able to create such a Godly Relic.
After the three golden sheets of paper appeared in the Alchemy Door, a paragraph of divine runes appeared inside the door. The divine runes were simple, and any player who had studied divine runes could understand them. ????????????.???
According to the paragraph, the three golden sheets of paper represented three alchemy recipes of different ranks, specifically the Basic Craftsman, the Intermediate Craftsman, and the Advanced Craftsman ranks. Silent Wonder was allowed to inherit the Legacy of one of them. However, the process of inheriting the Legacy was a challenge, and should she fail to stay conscious throughout the process, she would only receive the Legacy of a Great Grandmaster Alchemy Recipe as consolation.
This revelation dumbfounded Shi Feng.
There are three Craftsman Alchemy Recipes available to choose from? Shi Feng couldn’t help but rub his eyes. He couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
Although he already knew from the Alchemy Door’s introduction that players could obtain Craftsman Alchemy Recipes from it, seeing it in person was an entirely different experience. He was especially shocked when he saw that Silent Wonder had Intermediate and Advanced Craftsman options. After all, alchemy recipes of such ranks were few and far between in the Greater God’s Domain. They were more valuable than even Divine Artifacts.
The difference between Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced Craftsman Alchemy Recipes wasn’t limited to the complexity of their production processes. They also differed in rarity and effectiveness. The last time an Intermediate Craftsman Alchemy Recipe appeared in the Greater God’s Domain, it had propelled an upper-ranking hegemonic power into an apex power. Unfortunately, following the death of the Craftsman Alchemist who owned the recipe, the apex power in question also faded into the Greater God’s Domain’s history.
As for Advanced Craftsman Alchemy Recipes, it had already been centuries since the last one had appeared in the Greater God’s Domain…
As Shi Feng wondered whether Silent Wonder could even withstand the Alchemy Door’s Divine Might, she trudged forward, arrived before the Godly Relic after a difficult struggle, and stared at one of the golden sheets of paper. She looked like she was trying to engrave all the divine runes on the paper into her brain.
She went straight for the Advanced one?
Shi Feng was startled by Silent Wonder’s decision.
Despite being a Lifestyle Player, Silent Wonder had a strong talent for combat. She had also made extraordinary progress in the development of her Concentration. Nonetheless, it wasn’t wise for her to challenge an Advanced Craftsman Alchemy Recipe so soon.
In Shi Feng’s opinion, Silent Wonder would undoubtedly succeed if she tried to inherit a Basic Craftsman Alchemy Recipe with her talent. She should also have a good chance of succeeding if she challenged the Intermediate Craftsman Alchemy Recipe. After all, he had witnessed her capabilities in his previous life, so he knew that the Craftsman rank wasn’t her limit.
But if she were to try to inherit an Advanced Craftsman Alchemy Recipe in her current state, her chances of success likely wouldn’t reach 10%…
As Silent Wonder inherited the Advanced Craftsman Alchemy Recipe, the divine runes comprising the golden paper flowed into her head and flooded her mind with information. However, her brain had trouble handling the influx, as was evidenced by her pale complexion and the cold sweat covering her forehead.
Ten seconds… Twenty seconds… Thirty seconds…
As time passed, the golden paper started to disintegrate bit by bit. As this happened, Silent Wonder’s complexion grew paler, and she was rapidly reaching her limit.
“Hold on a little longer! The inheritance process is almost done!” Shi Feng shouted when he saw Silent Wonder’s body sway when only 5% of the inheritance process remained. As the inheritance process depended entirely on Silent Wonder’s willpower, he could only help by providing words of encouragement.
At Shi Feng’s reminder, Silent Wonder seemingly saw the light at the end of the tunnel. She immediately straightened her body and bit her lip to keep herself from falling unconscious.
4%…
3%…
2%…
1%…
When the last of the golden paper disappeared, Silent Wonder gasped for air as if she had just surfaced from a long dive. Unprecedented excitement also colored her face.
“I did it! Guild Leader, I did it!” Silent Wonder reported ecstatically to Shi Feng despite her deathly complexion.
“What potion is the recipe for?” Shi Feng asked curiously.
It might have been centuries since the last Advanced Craftsman Alchemy Recipe had appeared, but quite a few had been developed throughout the Greater God’s Domain’s history. According to the Grand Library’s records, there were nearly a hundred such recipes, each with varying effects. The most famous among them would have to be the New Life Potion, which could resurrect players who had suffered a true death. However, it had already been centuries since the last player had learned the New Life Potion’s recipe.
“Divine Blood!” Silent Wonder answered.
