Rise Of The Worm Sovereign-Chapter 1007 Unique Refinement
The system had perfectly learned how to replicate the array on its own. This was supposed to be one of the best-kept secrets of the Hu clan and not even the branch members were supposed to know about this.
But now Lin Wu had gained full control over it and could do whatever he wanted with it.
Still, he didn't let the system make an array right away. He first wanted to see how the original array worked and let the system record information from it first.
'There is always a chance for there to be a mistake. Best that it have concrete observations before I go for my own method.' Lin Wu thought.
"Alright system, use the plate for refinement." Lin Wu ordered.
~SHUA~
Lin Wu watched as the array was set up.
Since it was made in the form of a Formation plate, the activation was very quick. Thousands of runes appeared from the plate and assembled themselves into formations. These formations then arranged themselves according to the array, and it was finally completed.
"Now it's turn for the ticks…" Lin Wu turned his attention to the six Qi Sapping ticks that were sleeping nearby.
Since they were very skittish, Lin Wu had simply used some of his poison to knock them out. This way they wouldn't move too much and end up injuring themselves. After all, they were saturated to the point of bursting and could explode from just some minor damage.
Lin Wu didn't want to waste them this quick. f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎
'Getting more of them will be difficult too. The methods and materials needed to breed them are closely guarded within the Hu clan. Even for the Heirs, they need to officially apply for them before they are granted more of them.' Lin Wu pondered over it.
He needed to make the best use of those that he had with him, and use them sparingly.
"Though with the system's efficiency, I think I'll have a couple of spares left over…" Lin Wu guessed.
~roll~
He gently pushed one of the Qi Sapping ticks into the array and let it start its work.
~SHUA~
The array flickered before several small runes turned into threads. These threads wrapped up the fat Qi Sapping Tick, and now it looked like it had turned into a cocoon. The threads kept on increasing and the cocoon got thicker.
Five minutes later, the cocoon had reached twice the size it originally was.
~SQUEEZE~
It was at this point that the second step of the process started. The cocoon was squeezed from all sides as binders formed from runes wrapped it. The binders tightened around it and the cocoon was compressed.
This process took about thirty minutes before the cocoon had been shrunk to the size of a watermelon. This was a great difference from its original size and the most surprising part was the fact that Lin Wu could still feel vitality from it.
'The Qi Sapping tick is still alive on some level?' Lin Wu had not expected this.
~POOF~
But just a few seconds later, he heard a pressing sound. The life signs of the tick were wiped out, and the watermelon sized cocoon shrunk even more.
'So this is the point where the tick dies… maybe improvement can be made to this later.' Lin Wu analyzed on his own.
It wasn't that this method was for the refinement of the Qi Sapping ticks. Rather, Lin Wu was more interested in the other applications that would be derived from it. Thus, it was best for it to be as stable as possible.
Lin Wu watched as the Array continued its work and was now on its third step.
~HUALA~
Suddenly, a flame ignited within the array. This flame burned the cocoon, but the energy within it was being contained by the still present binders.
"This process was certainly derived from pill refinement. But the binders and cocoon method makes sure that there is no need for a pill cauldron." Lin Wu took note.
~POP~
Ten minutes passed like this before a popping sound was heard. Eight pills shot out from the orb and were quickly captured by the array.
~HUMM~
At this point, the array started to shut down, having finished its work.
Lin Wu waved his tail, and the pills were pulled towards him. He observed the pills while the system scanned them too.
They were plain white in color and there was no mark or pattern on them. He reckoned if they were sold off in the market, no one would be able to figure out how they were made or what they were.
"There isn't even a trace of the Qi Sapping ticks left in this." Lin Wu's spirit sense also probed it, finding nothing. 'Seems like the refinement has reached a point where it can fully move all traces.' He thought.
And when he looked at the system's analytical log, his thought was confirmed. All the traces of the Qi Sapping tick had been burned away by the flames during the third step.
~DING~

DATA BANKS: Updated!
ANALYZING: please wait patiently…

Lin Wu nodded his head in approval and could already see more notifications appearing as the system started to improve the process.
'Maybe I can even turn this into a pill refinement manual. The alchemist should probably like it a lot. They are always after more methods after all.' Lin Wu chuckled, wondering how much he should sell it for.
There would be no lack of people wanting to buy it in the Long Continent. Plus, it would suit his image as an old 'senior' imparting knowledge that had been long lost to the juniors of the current age.
"Haa… so many ways to profit, so little time." Lin Wu let out a breath before looking at the monitoring screen. "But I'll make time for all of them, hahaha."
Lin Wu pulled up the map and started to make a new route. His next destination was going to be a rather sensitive one and he needed to plan better.
