Chapter 1253: The Items

Surprisingly, the first material was very simple. It only needed the blood of a Stage Five Demon Beast called a Gargantuan Mikrel Worm. Rean and Roan had never encountered one, but they knew it was fairly common in certain regions of the continent. Perhaps the Realm of Gods itself. 

Rean couldn’t help but ask, “Sister Orb, isn’t this item way too easy to procure? I can go to the store in the Sacred Land, and I most definitely can find it for quite a low price.”

[Seems like you’re misunderstanding something, Rean,] Sister Orb told him. [It’s easy for you at this moment in time. You’re already in the Saint Realm and could easily defeat such a demon beast. However, the First Grade of the Starlight Body Cultivation Technique was supposed to be cultivated at the Core Formation Realm. Do you think someone at that level could match a Gargantuan Mikrel Worm at Stage Five? As for the price, do you think someone at that level could afford it?]

“This…” Rean had to admit Sister Orb was right. “Indeed, this would be an extremely hard material to come by at the Core Formation Realm.” Then again, one thing puzzled Rean. “Why can you only start to cultivate the first grade at the Core Formation Realm? Shouldn’t it be at the Energy Gathering Realm?”

Roan was the one to answer that. “All body cultivation techniques are like that. From what I found during my study, refining your body without having your foundation complete could destroy your dantian due to the pressure it exerts. You would need to be at least at the Core Formation Realm to start.”

Rean nodded after hearing that. “I see. Well, I was just curious.”

The twins then looked at the second item for the second grade of Star Body. 

-Deep-Sea Stage Seven Spiked Clam Pearl-

-Amount necessary: 100 each-

Rean bitterly smiled after seeing that. “The difficulty has escalated quite a bit, don’t you think?”

Roan didn’t know the mentioned demon beast. “Do you know of it?”

Rean nodded, explaining, “This pearl can be used in forging. It’s a very rare and expensive item used in Golden High and Peak-level equipment. If crushed into powder and used in the process to forge armors, it can increase the resistance of the equipment by at least 5 to 10%. It’s also good for weapons, but it’s mainly used in defensive-type equipment.”

Roan understood after that. “So? How much does it cost?”

Rean sighed before saying, “Depends on the level of the pearl. Stage Seven ones cost 100 Rank Two Divine Stones each. However, the problem isn’t the Divine Stones but the availability. Very few Deep Sea Spiked Clams are able to produce those pearls. Also, it can only be found in deep seas, obviously. With that said, they’re hard to track in that environment. Even if I had the Divine Stones, I doubt the Blacksmith Store in our Sacred Land would have this amount available for sale.”

“Does any deep sea have these demon beasts?” Roan soon asked.

Rean pondered in silence for a bit regarding the information he had before saying, “Hard to tell. What I know is that the Fosza Sea at the north of the continent should have them. The problem is finding the clams. Not only that, Stage Seven ones would live in territories with many similar or stronger Sea Demon Beasts. We might bump into some Stage Eight or even Transition Realm Sea Demon Beasts while looking for them. This is another reason why each pearl is this expensive.”

Roan wasn’t sad, though. “There’s nothing bad about it. At the very least, we know that we can acquire the pearls, even if it takes time. You can try to forge a lot of those Element Gathering Weapons of yours and get the Rank Two Divine Stones necessary.”

Suddenly, Rean had an idea. “No! There’s no need to get Divine Stones. Hahaha! All I need to do is say that those who can give me three pearls will be able to jump ahead in the queue to forge their weapons. It might be dangerous for us to look for the Deep Sea Spiked Clams. However, there are a lot of disciples here with big backgrounds, even in the Sacred Land itself. They would definitely ask the experts of their clans, sects, and other organizations to go find those three pearls for them.”

Roan agreed with him on that. “That’s good, then. You’ll have to spend quite a few weeks forging equipment, but it’s something that will contribute to our overall strength, so it’s okay if you don’t train much during this time.”

Rean smiled in response. “Then it’s decided. Now, let’s check the third item for the Third Grade Star Body.”

-Molten Divine Rock Flower-

-Amount necessary: 10 each-

Rean looked at Roan, somewhat confused. “You’re an alchemist. Do you know this flower?”

Roan immediately shook his head. “Never heard of it. However, the Divine in its name makes it pretty obvious it’s a Divine-level material. It makes sense that I don’t know since I only studied alchemy at the Golden-level. I would need to gain access to the higher levels of the Alchemist Hall Repository to know more about it.”

“Let me guess, only Core Disciples can enter that,” Rean could not help but say.

Roan nodded in response. “Yes. However, that’s not a problem. I don’t need to go there to study. All I need is information about the flower. With the Merit Points we got from the five Yin Ghost Cores, it will be easy to ask a Core Disciple who does alchemy to look for it.”

Rank Three Divine Stones could only be acquired by Core Disciples and above, and each cost 50000 Merit Points. Naturally, the Core Disciples would love to do such a task for Roan.

“Alright!” Rean then looked at Roan and told him, “You go to the Sacred Land’s store and buy the Gargantuan Mikrel Worm’s blood. Meanwhile, I’ll go outside to tell the disciples about the new rule for forging. The Blacksmith Hall’s store doesn’t have that many, but they definitely have a few pearls. Those disciples will definitely rush there to buy them so that I can forge their weapons.”

Roan nodded in agreement to the plan. “I’ll take the chance to look for someone who can search up information regarding the flower for me.”

With that said, the twins went out of their residences to start their work.
