Chapter 498 The anxious flame in my heart
Xingluo stretched himself and began to work without distraction. If he could leave here earlier, it would mean he could leave the abyss faster. He had already completed the preparations and chose this secret room as the site. It was far away from human habitation and was also an area shrouded in dark energy as the refining site. To ensure that the area was closed to avoid interference from the outside, Xingluo casually arranged a formation plate. This was not to guard against the middle-level demon, but he knew that being disturbed during the production process was the most taboo, as it would not only ruin all the previous efforts, but also could lead to energy backlash.
Then Xingluo began to arrange the demon array, using some special materials, including demon blood and shadow energy, and he casually drew a complex demon array. The array contained pentagrams, forbidden symbols, and runes used to gather dark energy.
The next step is to forge the Stygian Iron and Shadow Steel. Xingluo first places the Stygian Iron in the dark flames and forges it continuously. The flames must be ignited by the spells in the forbidden book. During forging, the Stygian Iron will absorb dark energy and become more magical. To forge Shadow Steel, it must be smelted in a crucible filled with demon blood. During the smelting process, the evil eye is used to monitor the energy changes in it. Any abnormality must be dealt with in time to ensure that the flame is in an extremely stable state at all times. This is a great test of a person's control over mental power, and it also has extremely high requirements for the total amount of mental power of the caster. Xingluo must ensure that the Shadow Steel can absorb enough evil power before proceeding to the next step. This process is very slow. Even his mental power, which is equivalent to that of an intermediate great mage, has been overdrawn several times, and he has to maintain meditation to replenish his mental power. Xingluo feels that his brain is pierced back and forth by countless steel needles, which makes his face twisted with pain.
The next step was to seal the soul fragments. Xingluo waved his hand and placed the soul fragments into a container made of the remains of undead creatures. The container had been soaked in the Tears of Pain before, which enhanced its power. During the sealing process, Xingluo stood in the center of the demon array, constantly chanting the spells in the forbidden book, sealing the soul fragments little by little into the core of the cursed object. After the sealing was completed, the cursed object would have the power of the abyss.
After Xingluo completed the soul seal, he was already a little shaky. His mental and magic power were overdrawn, so he could only use his strong body to resist the next refining work. He couldn't stop and had to complete the fusion of the evil eye before he fell. He took out the evil eye from the star dust and gave it the ability to connect to other dimensions. For this work, he had to use the star energy to wrap his hands, otherwise his hands might be crushed by the time and space storm during the removal process. This was no longer a power of this dimension. Xingluo couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. He felt that his asking price was a little too low. Not to mention whether there was anyone who could master the star energy, even if there was, it might not be more handy than him. Moreover, the cultivation of star energy was too weird. It had to be cultivated from the time when there was no magic power and fighting spirit. Without the tempering of magic power and fighting spirit, the body could not withstand the terrifying star energy. So this time the Pope also helped Xingluo, allowing him to cultivate the star energy from the beginning. Xingluo waved his hand and placed the Evil Eye on the cursed object, using the venom of the highly poisonous creature as an adhesive to ensure that the Evil Eye was firmly attached to the cursed object and could enhance the effect of the curse.
The next step is to refine the cursed object with spells. In the demon array, Xingluo stood in front of the cursed object and chanted the final spell in the forbidden book using the blood of the middle demon and the shadow energy. This spell will activate the power of all materials and make the cursed object release the final curse power. The power gradually condensed, and when Xingluo's spell was about to be completed, all the dark energy was condensed into the cursed object in an instant. At this time, the cursed object exuded a strong dark light, indicating that it already had a strong curse power, but it didn't take long for the curse power to become rootless duckweed and dissipated in an instant. Xingluo's mouth corners slightly raised. This is the power of the realm of no darkness, which can make the dark negative energy disappear without a trace. Even if you hold the cursed object in your hand, you can't feel the cold power in it.
The next step is to verify the effect. In the demon array, test the effect of the cursed object. Make sure it can exert the expected curse power and meet the requirements of the middle demon. Of course, the cursed object must be kept safely. Xingluo placed the cursed object in a special sealed box. This sealed box was made by him with the remaining materials. It can fully withstand the overflow of the curse power. However, with the blessing of the Dark Realm, the curse power did not leak out at all. Xingluo only made it to prevent accidents. The main body of the sealed box is made of Hades Iron and Shadow Steel, and runes are engraved on the inner wall.
After forty-nine days of refining, a powerful cursed object was completed. It will have the toughness of dark metal, the evil of demon blood, the abyssal power of soul fragments, the curse effect of the evil eye, and the death breath of undead creatures.
During the refining process, the middle-level demon did not show any sign of anxiety at the beginning. He drank his black tea calmly and only glanced in the direction of the secret room occasionally. However, this situation did not last long. The middle-level demon soon increased the frequency of looking in the secret room. He seemed a little anxious, because the secret room was built too well, resulting in not a single bit of energy leaking out, so he could only worry outside the secret room.
Especially in the last few days, the middle-level demon had lost his elegance in his movements. He drank cup after cup of black tea, as if the flame of anxiety in his heart could not be extinguished without drinking something.
Finally, one day, a sound was heard in the secret room. It was the sound of Xingluo opening the door. It was like thunder in the ears of the middle-level demon Gracies, and he jumped up instantly. But soon he felt that he had lost his composure and hurriedly straightened his clothes. However, his actions were a bit deliberate. Xingluo did not expose him because he was so tired that he didn't even have the energy to tease the other party.
Xingluo threw the cursed object directly to the other party and then said: "Remember your promise, otherwise I don't mind fighting with you until both of us suffer losses."
The middle demon Glacis was in a good mood, but his eyes narrowed instantly after being threatened by a human, especially when he thought that the other party already knew his real name, which made him unable to suppress the urge to kill Xingluo. At this moment, he felt a sharp pain in his hand. He looked down and found that it was the curse made by the other party that hurt him. You know, Xingluo just threw it casually, but it was so powerful. This forced Glacis to re-examine Xingluo and temporarily suppressed the murderous intent in his heart. Instead, he said: "If this curse meets my expectations, then you will get a way to leave this layer of the abyss."
Xingluo knew that only strength could make both parties the subjects of a fair transaction.
