Eternal Thief

Chapter 1174: First Test Passed!

Elder Dewey couldn’t help but nod with fondness as he watched the entire forging process without missing anything despite his initial shock brought by Chuchu’s spirit fire.

Furthermore, he had to admit that despite not having personal control over the spirit fire, George’s Qi control was enough to make up for it. For some reason, he also senses a

peculiarity in George’s Qi, which he can’t put his finger on.

Nonetheless, the entire forging process has earned his approval, and even without examining the Soul Piercing Dagger yet, he had already given George a pass.

The others were also impressed by George but didn’t say anything. They let Elder Dewey take the lead as he moved toward the Soul Piercing Dagger.

“You did well. But there is still some room for improvement.” Elder Dewey smilingly commented as he picked up the Soul Piercing Dagger.

Ace nodded without any arrogance as he already knew that, as his first time trying to forge, he had gone above and beyond for a newcomer perspective. If Elder Dewey and others found out about it, they wouldn’t be so composed.

But Ace had no intention of telling them the truth as he had already passed the test. After all, he made a grade-9 treasure using grade-8 materials, which can only be done by peak grade-9 runic smiths. However, only he knew that he was able to pull it off because of his Holy Twilight Spirit Qi and Chuchu’s spirit fire.

Elder Dewey, after picking the ocean blue soul-piercing dagger with dark blue runic symbols on its blade, used a special spell, and his eyes suddenly glowed as the mystery of the dagger completely lay bare in front of him.

‘96% purity…’ He thought with a hint of hidden shock before he stopped using the spell, but his eyes were far from calm.

The purity of the materials in any refinement was tantamount to any profession because it directly affects the final product, and the higher the purity, the chances of the final product evaluating to a much higher rank increased tremendously.

However, even Elder Dewey had only achieved 64% purity in his refinement process, and increasing even a single percent was like climbing mountains and crossing rivers. Yet George had achieved 96% purity which was a threshold almost impossible to reach.

Although this could still be blamed on the difference between George’s and the materials’ power potency, Elder Dewey wasn’t sure if he could even pull a 96% potency using the same materials. The highest he could do was 87%.

Lastly, 96% purity was the highest he had ever seen or even heard, which made the old man, who had lived for tens of thousands of years, utterly baffled and shocked.

As for blaming it on Chuchu’s special spirit fire, this thought didn’t even cross his mind because even though Chuchu’s spirit fire was extremely powerful and a dream of every forger, in the end, if George wasn’t the one controlling it with masterful control, the spirit fire would’ve turned the materials into ashes within seconds.

So, it was George who utilized all his skills and tools to his advantage perfectly and created this miracle.

Elder Dewey even had a feeling that George was completely clueless about his own achievement. After all, he seems to not know about the growth-type spirit fire, and he wouldn’t be showing it around in front of everyone if he had known its implications.

So, he decided to property tech him about it without any malicious intention towards him and stop himself from bringing any of it out in front of everyone, even Homer, who he trusts with his life. George’s talent was simply too high at this point, and he knew there was a high possibility that he was really a dual-running talent. Even if he wasn’t, his future achievement in the forging would shock the lands!

Elder Dewey then looked towards George and smiled kindly, “You passed my test. Do you want to rest before showing us your Spirit Rune Crafting?”

“Thank you for your kindness Lord Elder, but I’m fine,” Ace replied without hesitation. He wanted to get it over with as soon as possible because he now really wanted to enter the sect and explore more about forging because of the strange feeling he had towards the end.

Because of that feeling, Ace could feel his cultivation had increased slightly, which came as a shock to him but also a present surprise.

‘Is it because I fell into a special state of mind while forging that cultivation increased? Or it’s something else? After all, I never really cultivated like this before, so I never sense anything like this while I craft runes. Maybe it’s a special thing to only law states? I’ll have to see if I can get into the same kind of state while rune crafting. I haven’t tried creating an ascension grade runic treasure yet and only study the principals because of lack of time and materials…’ He mused with a hint of anticipation.

Elder Dewey admired young George’s spirit and nodded in approval as he said, “As promised, I’ll provide you with materials for ascension-grade rune crafting. So, what do you need? I can see what I have, and if we lack anything, Weston Clan can provide them for us. I’ll naturally pay the cost for them.”

“What are you saying, Elder? Please take whatever you need; it’s our honor to provide materials for a prodigy like Sir George.” Lloyd quickly chimed in as he directly rejected any payment.

Even he knew George was far from simple, and he was about to soar, especially if he pulled this off, so forming at least this small goodwill with such a figure would do them more good than harm.

Elder Dewey naturally caught on to Lloyd’s intentions, but he didn’t say anything for his deceased disciple’s sake, and it was Lloyd who led George to him, so he wasn’t against it as long as George was willing. freewebnoveℓ.com

Ace naturally won’t reject free materials to test his theory, so his mind begins to work at lightning speed as he selects one of the 9 Heavenly Ascension Runes of Grade-1.

Yes, there were only nine Ascension Grade-1 Runes in Heavenly Runes of Ascension, and similarly, nine Ascension grade-2 and nine Ascension grade-3 runes.

But those nines runes were the origin of every rune at the same grade, and as long as he knew how to break them and create more runes from them, he could create or copy any runes at the

same grade.

That’s where his foundation in the Mortal Sky Heaven comes in handy, especially the Forbidden Runes. As for the names of materials, although he had yet to get proper talismans, arrays, or formations from the system in his rune crafting panel, he had already remembered many from his knowledge of Moon Fiend King’s storage ring.

That guy had collected a vast collection of knowledge about herbs and materials to practice his Undead Puppetry, and now they were all his!
