Find a Troubled Girl after leaving the Guild
Chapter 638 - 319: Enchantment Creation
After sealing the curse as a separate Demon’s Hand using the Sealing Demon Skill taught by Akuya, this arm no longer seemed to belong to Li Ang; he hadn’t felt the usual sensations through it for a long time.
Just like the panel that opened during body modification as stated by the system, the Demon’s Hand is something apart from his own body; it shouldn’t have any sensation.
However, sometimes it seems like something can be felt from it.
Li Ang’s right hand grasped the junction between his own arm at the elbow and the Demon’s Arm. The transition from human skin to Demon Thorn was very abrupt, as it was distinctly divided by Dimensional Cutting lines.
Several times when his emotions fluctuated, his left hand couldn’t help but act out instinctively, making him realize that this arm was still problematic after all.
However, since this situation was infrequent, he didn’t have the mind to attend to it for the moment.
Yet, when facing Fafnir, his deep casting uncontrollably formed into the shape of the Demon’s Hand, which alerted him.
The appearance of the arm was evidently identical to the Six-Armed Demon that cursed him.
This seemed to convey a message—the Demon Curse was still profoundly affecting Li Ang, definitely not being well-contained.
And after the spell manifested as a demonic arm, the pain appeared.
On carefully feeling the pain and observing with the Spiritual Horizon, Li Ang discovered the pain wasn’t originating from the elbow itself but from the body’s rejection.
The demonized heterogeneous spirit was constantly trying to infiltrate deeper parts.
But there wasn’t a good solution now, so Li Ang sighed, needing to prepare quickly to head to the Land of Ten Thousand Spirits.
These days, the ends of certain things involving the young girl and himself had to be resolved quickly.
After mentally planning the preparations, exhausted by the troublesome young girls, Li Ang fell into sleep.
The next day, after checking the progress of ship construction, Li Ang chose solitude first.
Not that he couldn’t forgive anyone—if he had that little tolerance, he couldn’t continue with this group of troublemakers; it’s mainly that after venting yesterday, they all seemed a bit off, so it was better not to speak for now.
Deciding to focus on enhancing both his and the team’s level to better handle the current situation and reach the Land of Ten Thousand Spirits sooner, he immediately began his cultivation.
First was the rank-up of Equipment Creation; now aiming for Tier Six. The equipment produced would be managed by the Shadow Factory and dealt with later.
The entire morning passed without disturbance, fully focused on crafting, though he had quite a chat with the Shadow Factory’s engineers who had rarely met an Equipment Artisan.
Returning to the resting area at noon, the explosion zone had already been efficiently cleared by Neil and his people, but he didn’t see any sign of the young girls. Sensing the Magic Power and Spirituality, he found they were each in their rooms, appearing to be resting and cultivating.
As for Meluna, it was unknown where she had gone.
In this rare quiet afternoon, Li Ang used the time to deal with Professional Skills.
First was the witch, or "Spiritual Forger" matter; his own Profession needed further enhancement, requiring the acquisition of a Magic Scripture and new Curse Arts, all of which were hard to come by, or he would have another sudden inspiration to create Curse Arts, but his exploration had already surpassed many, making such situations rare.
There was one thing that could be enhanced—the "Spell Stealing" Curse Art obtained from the Dark Night Ancient City Secret Box, very powerful, but recently he hadn’t encountered enemies repeatedly using spells, as they typically used Secret Techniques or Special Attacks as regular attacks.
The key lies in the information left by the ancient city residents; Spell Stealing can steal Secret Techniques, but it requires specially crafted Magic Equipment, a kind of implement which Li Ang, based on his power, could also make into equipment form.
However, crafting this equipment requires knowledge to produce Exquisite Equipment, something he learned after reaching Tier Five in Equipment Creation, which was previously incomprehensible.
This is why he seeks to continue enhancing his Equipment Creation skills to Tier Six.
This is a pending task, and the second Profession is the potential Magic Guide.
Professions like Mages or Swordsmen were practiced or guided team members as necessary back then, but Li Ang was focused only on Dragon Summoner and the Magic Guide.
The former had already reached Tier Eight with the help of Leviathan, mastering many formidable powers, while the latter was previously limited by Professional Points, stopping at Tier Six.
He still doesn’t plan to advance it directly to Tier Seven, preferring to first explore the capabilities of this Profession.
The Divine Wisdom Transcendence, an Enhanced Spellcasting skill, was previously used, without which confronting Fafnir wouldn’t have been so easy.
Among the remaining Skills, Magic Diffusion enhances spells, expanding their original range of effect, and if Close Combat Professions were enhanced by this, their attacks could also be mimetically transformed into an invisible Magic Power diffusion impact.
Magic Pattern Awakening is a technique that strengthens Magic Arrays or simplified engravement powers, seemingly useless but actually the Magic Guide has exclusive Professional equipment, often embedded with different Magic Runes for varied enhancement effects.
These are quite strong, though Li Ang has plenty of means and typically doesn’t depend on them. What he focuses most on now is the profession’s most prominent feature: things related to demons.
