Chapter 868: Divine Weapon Upgrading For Dummies

.

.

.

Alright then, here's the big question of the day.

How the heck do I upgrade a weapon to a Higher Realm?

As explained previously, all artifacts have Realms, like, their levels of power compared to Gods and stuff.

I learned how to upgrade them through Hephaestus memories and his nice divinity that just fits right in with this stuff.

Although it would be nice to receive Blaze's help, I can still do this on my own.

I have already set what is called a "Forge Formation" where the efficiency, proficiency, a more of anything I craft or upgrade within such a formation is enhanced by a large amount.

This was the secret behind Hephaestus being able to produce such nice Artifacts.

He used this super cheat formation to do all of that, but it really takes a ton of Divine Materials to create.

Luckily, because my Divine Realm by itself is filled with them after eating a bunch of Gods, I had just enough.

I am also stockpiling Divine Energy Crystals and was planning to purchase more materials there.

Oh, by the way, in the Divine Dungeon Shop I can't find any Divine Material, what I thought were Divine Materials before were actually items… you can buy artifacts there though, but the Divine Realm Artifacts cost ridiculous amounts of Divine Dungeon points, and I don't have enough yet.

Any Artifact that could be good for me costs around 900.000 Divine Dungeon Points, of course, I am talking about those with Rank 3, the refined Divine Dungeon Points because you can't use the normal ones to buy these Artifacts.

But even then, it's not enough! I only have around 650,000 Divine Dungeon Points!

So I am hopeless.

And it's not like a single artifact can change everything in battle…

However, the Artifacts right here… these spears were custom made for me by the System itself, they are literally my "Legendary Weapons" like the ones Heroes are gifted.

And they embody my powers pretty well.

There is the [Spectral Spear of Chaotic Calamity and Undying Monstrosity: Khaos (Heavenly+++)] which has amazing abilities and enhances my Chaos Attribute.

And then there is the [Phantasmagoric Spear of Eternal Emptiness: Ginnungagap (Heavenly+++)] one, which enhances my Void Attribute.

Now, I am going to enhance them all the way to True Rank of the Divine Realm. 

Alright, the Divine Materials I spent for the Formation of Hephaestus was quite a lot, but I had somehow enough, however, I got almost empty with them.

What I needed as the core was named Crystals of Effervescent Flame Spirit, which I had to place in four places, create large magic circles one after another using grounded Rocks of Forgery around these Crystals, and then set up large quantities of random Fire Attribute Divine Materials. In here I used a lot of pseudo divine materials formed by me or harvested from Babel, but the ones I needed the most were those I named earlier.

Alongside that, even with the pseudo as a substitute, I can only use but a little, so I had to waste around 60% of my other Fire Attribute Divine Materials… Even with Blaze awake, she could give a little help, but all of this enormous cost wouldn't go away.

And because I want to make them Divine Realm, I needed only God Realm or above Divine Materials. All the Divine Materials that I got from Hephaestus were almost completely spent here.

But the damn formation was done.

I glanced at it and quickly activated it.

The crystals glowed with many bright red colors, as a sudden, large space emerged, something similar to a small Divine Realm.

Yep, all these Divine Materials are then used with a ton of incantation and Divine Techniques that also use Divine Materials.

The Divine Techniques are named Furnace of Infernal Flames, which summons the Space with the corresponding materials and magic circles given, alongside the Flame of Hephaestus: Forger of Divine Artifacts, which summons a Divine Flame with similar qualities to Blaze's soul, although even with Blaze, I would still need to make it to make the entire Formation correctly.

The four Core Magic Circles were connected to the four Crystals of Effervescent Flame Spirit, which I had to put a lot of intent into maintaining, but by putting my Wills and Split Minds into them through Illusion Magic, it was easy to maintain them.

Phew, I spent like… 30 Million Divine Energy with that.

The good thing is that this Formation should be permanent as long as it doesn't get attacked or destroyed, so I made sure to craft a large spatial distortion around it to protect it from tremors and more, that only cost me Mana though.

Now, to activate the formation, I have to walk inside and then begin to infuse more Divine Energy into it.

But we are not done here, alongside this, I brought all the materials needed to upgrade my Spears!

They were a ton!

And they were all growing within different areas of my Divine Realm, I extracted the last ones too, so I got empty on these types of Divine Materials, sadly.

Although my Attribute Particles didn't lower, the same with the Fire Attribute Divine Materials… I thought they would go down, but they didn't.

I guess the Attribute Particles I have been stuck to my Soul or something than not to the materials?

Maybe this only applies to materials that were already there with me when I became a Goddess, and perhaps those I add later might not work similarly.

I also had to get two whole sets of materials for the two spears each.

Yeah, one set of materials is to increase them to Demi Rank Divine Realm, and then another set of materials to upgrade them to True Rank Divine Realm.

Man, I wish I could get some easier way to craft items… like in the Atelier games, the latest one had an amazing System that lets you increase the quality of crafted materials and stuff into a Skill Tree-like System.

Perhaps I can get myself a Crafting/Alchemy System through my System Creation?

"Andromeda, is it possible?"

[To create such a System function would require exorbitant amounts of Divine Energy and perhaps even System Attribute Divine Materials, my beloved Master… I believe that it might not be enough as of now]

System Attribute Divine Materials… Yeah, those exist, but there are none in my Divine Realm.

Why? Because I have to actually craft them. Indeed, craft Divine Materials!

With what? Law Attributes Divine Materials!

And where do I find those? There is a few insides of my heaven layer, but the rest… I would have to craft them too! No one sells those in the Interdimensional Merchant Shop.

To craft Law Attribute Divine Materials, I would need materials of all basic attributes and merge them together through advanced Divine Alchemy techniques.

…Yep, a long way to go before I can get such an OP Alchemy System Function.

But man, it would be nice to have one.

Anyways, it is time to get to the crafting!

No item can just instantly upgrade the artifact by the way, at least not that I have available! Those that I think could work cost way too much, it is way cheaper to do it the traditional way, even if it is a pain…

We'll begin with the Chaos Attribute Spear, the [Spectral Spear of Chaotic Calamity and Undying Monstrosity: Khaos (Heavenly+++)], whose materials are these:

For Demi Rank Divine Realm upgrade:

[Chaos Snake Dark-Purple Scales (Demigod Rank)] x150

[Abyssal Chaos Crystal Stone (Demigod Rank)] x80

[Chaotic Core Fragment of Turbulent Emotions (Demigod Rank)] x50

[Devil Bloodshot Eye of the Chaos Demon Lizard (Demigod Rank)] x10

[Surplus] x500

The surplus is what you add as filler for things, as I need a shit ton of Chaos Attribute Energy for it to upgrade, I add these pseudo-divine materials that I can easily generate with my Creation Skill, although I can only add up to 50% before the thing might have a chance of failing, so the rest were legitimate divine materials…

Anyways, I gather all the materials around me, letting them float.

A crap ton of purple scales, crystals, cores, and bloodshot eyes, alongside a ton of the surplus.

I put the beautiful dark-colored and gothic-styled spear over the furnace's desk made of stone, which is also a divine material and part of the whole formation.

Then, I put each material on the different stone desk which has engraved magic circles, and finally, I begin to infuse Divine Energy!

And now, the Divine Materials sitting on the stone desk around me begin to gleam with dark colors, turning into complete energy and flying towards the spear!

Now's the moment of truth! I have to strike it!

With what?

With a hammer, of course!

This is the legendary technique that Hephaestus designed to craft and upgrade items, by hitting them as hard as I can with a hammer, the item begins to mold to my liking, and I can sharpen its power depending on what I want it to exceed on!

You can even decide what you want the item to boost more into, be it speed, attack, or even defensive capabilities such as greater resilience.

Hephaestus's actual hammer got destroyed in the fight, so I am using my own Hephaestus Hammer Skill, which I am infusing with Divine Energy to become as strong as a Divine Technique!

Now, as the spear begins to glow, I hit it!

Clank!

And hit it!

Clank!

And hit it!

CLANK!

I begin to put my entire aura into the task, using it to mold the weapon as the Divine Flames below me enhance the weapon's speed of crafting.

I keep doing this for a long time, hitting it and hitting it constantly, the weapon molds to my hammer, it is becoming an extension of my very being.

CLANK!

…

After several hours, it was finally done, the spear began to glow with an enormous wave of shadows covering it completely, but these shadows were in fact pure chaos!

The spear begins to glow eerily as its crimson eye within the handle opens wide and unleashes a flame of red chaos energy.

Suddenly, all of this power goes back to the Artifact.

It is truly done now…

Oof.

Ding!

[You have successfully upgraded the [Spectral Spear of Chaotic Calamity and Undying Monstrosity: Khaos (Heavenly+++)] to [Divine Realm: Demi Rank]!]

I grasp the spear as I immediately feel an upgrade on my capabilities even more than before! Now, this is way more fitting for my current power level… Before this upgraded, it really seemed like some kind of toy at this point, but now… Oh yeah, now it really looks like an actual weapon.

  I inspect the time and… it has been 1 day and 10 hours since I started! Ugh… Well, I heard Hephaestus took even weeks, so I think I am pretty talented.

And it's not like I am not with my family, as I am with them right now eating breakfast, with one of my True Body Clones.

It is weird how I am relaxing and at the same time, I was stressing myself to get this done…

Now, let's continue with the next upgrade right away. This one might take… even more time.

The materials to upgrade the spear to True Rank of the Divine Realm are these:

[Hardened Tentacle Tissue of the Aberrant, Crimson-Eyed Tentacle Terror (God Rank)] x100

[Chaotic Soul Jewel (God Rank)] x50

[Attribute-Negating Materialized Chaotic Dark Matter (God Rank)] x10

[Gigantic Monstrous Eye of the Living Chaos Mountain (God Rank)] x10

[Surplus] x700

Here they are, these ones were EVEN HARDER to find, and I think they are the best divine materials I had due to their rarity and powers.

These spears… due to how much I am putting on them, I might carry them with me for a long time.

The Formation quickly arranges itself one more, all materials are in place, and I begin hitting the spear once more, one clank at a time…
