Chapter 1154 Core formation
Liam started going through one manual after another while sitting inside the stone tablet pocket world. He already attempted gathering more herbs using the stone tablet but he was only able to get A-grade herbs and below.
Even though the B-Rank world's mana density was extremely high, the natural mana density was still not enough to fuel the stone tablet to produce higher-grade herbs.
There was also something else that happened.
Liam had assigned a few of his soul minions to stand guard while he was inside the pocket world and these minions told him that there was a small mana swirl in the pocket world's location or rather the location at which he had used the stone tablet.
So if someone really powerful were to attack that spot, they perhaps would be able to break and get through to the pocket world and attack him when he was meditating and vulnerable.
Liam thought about this for a while but there wasn't much he could do. He had to take this risk. This entire world was unsafe for him. He had to train somewhere.
He stationed more minions to patrol the area and sat down to start his work. Before doing anything, he picked up the nether 101 book and went through it first.
These books were somewhat similar to skill books where the copy of the book was consumed when willed and the entire information became available in one's mind in an instant.
However, that was not quite the end. The information still had to be accessed, processed, and digested. Otherwise, a person would never know the contents completely.
Liam breathed in and out and calmly analyzed all of the information that had flooded his mind. He only had to turn a few pages when he found the information he was looking for.
He shook his head with a bitter smile on his face. As he went through the information several questions and confusions that had plagued his mind immediately disappeared.
Apparently, nether could be cultivated in many ways. For that matter, it seems mana too could be cultivated in many ways.
He opened up the mana cultivation manuals to take a look and indeed this was true.
Some worlds used star maps to store mana. Some used runes to store mana. Storing mana in the form of a concentrated core was the most basic version of all the methods.
However, interestingly, these different versions did not have much effect on the power generated.
At the end of the day, all paths lead right back to the same spot. While the methods might be different it ultimately depended on the specific being to bring out the full potential of the mana stored in their body.
The same applied to nether too.
Nether could be stored as fractals, branching all over the body. It could be stored as a black hole swirl. It could also be stored as a nether core.
But there was indeed a small difference.
Liam frowned as he saw that the most efficient way to store nether was as fractals that branched through the whole body. This way the corruption was wild and unfettered and gripped the whole being.
go of and shed their mortal body and fully committed to the undead way of life. These beings also hailed from a nether world, to begin with.
But he doubted if this would suit him. Maybe forming a nether core was the path that would suit him the most.
He then searched both manuals to see if anything had been mentioned about cultivating both mana and nether.
To his surprise, the only thing he found was a method mentioned in the nether 101 book that talked about how to flush out mana from the body to prevent mana poisoning and instability.
This was not really good news but he already knew that much.
Liam did not stop and scoured all of the information that was in his possession.
Inside the stone tablet, the atmosphere was also calm and tranquil so he was able to bring out the peak efficiency of his mental strength as he perused through all of the knowledge available to him.
A couple of hours later, he finally found the information he was looking for in the mana pathways manual.
Once again, Liam couldn't help but sigh at the content. The manual talked about how different types of energies that existed in this world were rarely compatible.
Even similar types of energies such as demonic energy and nether energy did not prefer co-existing. One always tried to dominate and swallow the other.
This was the basic law of the myriad realms.
This was also a significant hurdle in his path that he had to overcome.
The manual only briefly mentioned that there were several methods to do this and many treasures that helped before moving on to other topics.
He also saw that most beings who cultivated nether ultimately let Liam clicked his tongue in disappointment. A little bit more detail could have helped but then again this was the basic knowledge so he couldn't expect too much.
He spent the next few days going through each and every single book the fairy had acquired for him, searching for clues about harnessing multiple energies.
He also tried to find out if anything about limit breaker fruit had been mentioned. However, after many hours this too did not yield any result.
From the little information he gathered from the dragon woman, Liam had already tried to grow the limit breaker fruit a few times but it wasn't successful.
It looked like one needed to have a complete understanding of the herb or plant in question for the stone tablet to be able to grow it.
Liam then tossed aside everything and focussed on the main task at hand. It was time to make the mana core mending pill.
After assimilating the basics of various fields and fully digesting the knowledge at his disposal, he felt that his understanding of alchemy had grown leaps and bounds.
He was ready to concoct the pill.
