I gave a glance to the items I wanted to use for now, though I might consider some others later. I was thinking of some Privilege Fusion myself.
[Random Spiritual Arts Scroll (S Rank)] x2
[Random Sorcery Arts Scroll (S Rank)] x2
[Martial Arts Enhancing Scroll (SS Rank)] x5
[Martial Arts Evolution Scroll (S+++ Rank)] x1
[Heavenly Yin & Yang Elixir (SS Rank)] x5
[Black & White Heaven Pearl (SS Rank)] x5
[Primordial Yin Crystal Fragment (SS Rank)] x5
[Primordial Yang Crystal Fragment (SS Rank)] x5
[Skill Evolution Scroll: Yin & Yang Theme (S+++ Rank)] x1
[World of Bestia Themed Skill Book (SS Rank)] x1
[Mechanoid Themed Treasure Chest (SS Rank)] x1
"Hmm…"
The Martial Art Scrolls should be easy to just use and see what I get, but about this Skill Evolution Scroll, which Skill do I choose?
It has to be a strong Skill that I use most of the time and which could benefit from an evolution to become even stronger.
The skill would also gain the essence of Yin and Yang, which is very interesting.
Okay, I guess I got some ideas for that, but let's use the other items first.
I grabbed the scrolls and opened them one after another; their letters and essence rushed towards me, infusing and strengthening my Martial Power.
Knowledge was directly infused inside of my mind, how to use the spiritual energy, ki, and more.
Because of the surplus of items being used, this ended up creating quite the overload of information inside of my head.
However, over time, I calmed down and my head cooled down, allowing me to focus once more on what I was doing.
"Phew," I sighed in relief, feeling an aura of power flowing through me. "Now, let's see…"
Ding!
[You have used the [Random Spiritual Arts Scroll (S Rank)] x2!]
[Two Powerful Spiritual Arts have been infused into your very Spiritual Body.]
[You learned the Spiritual Art: [Vengeful Crimson Fire Aura Arts: Tier 1]!]
[You learned the Spiritual Art: [Soaring Heaven Holy Light Wings Arts: Tier 1]!]
Yeah, these two were quite interesting; the power to wield Spiritual Fire powered by damage, hatred, grudges, and vengeance is something that could go quite well with the Demonic Seal Arts.
Then there's this other one… It grants the power to summon a huge pair of spiritual wings made of holy light spirit energy, which can be used to fly very fast, defend as shields, and also attack with feather projectiles of light.
It's really quite interesting, now that I think about it.
Ding!
[You have used the [Random Sorcery Arts Scroll (S Rank)] x2!]
[Two Powerful Sorcery Arts have been infused into your very Spiritual Body.]
[You learned the Sorcery Art: [Dark Blood Curse Arts: Tier 1]!]
[You learned the Sorcery Art: [Eight-Headed Poison Snake Cloud Arts: Tier 1]!]
Dark Blood Curse Arts seemed to deal with the curse of a person's own blood itself, making them bleed faster, controlling it to attack them and worsen wounds even more, and also… maybe restoring vitality by drinking it. Wow, very vampiric!
Then there's the second, Eight-Headed Venom Snake Cloud Arts, which is about summoning snake-shaped poison clouds with eight heads each, made to spread poison, attack, and weaken foes.
Sorcery Arts differentiate between Martial Arts and Spiritual Arts in that they require no physical contact with a subject and not even physical movement or force to unleash them.
They're purely elemental and energy-based and aren't attached to the body either, for most of the time, being capable of controlling them from a long distance.
It's basically magic, but with more specific techniques and schools, and it doesn't need Mana, a big plus.
Ding!
[You have used the [Martial Arts Enhancing Scroll (SS Rank)] x5!]
[Your Martial Arts have received five random enhancements to their Strength and Growth!]
[The Martial Arts: [Cloud Step: Tier 7], [Inner Heavenly Bridge of the Psyche Meditation Arts: Tier 3], [Soul-Shattering Demonic Fist Martial Arts: Tier 3], [Vengeful Crimson Fire Aura Arts: Tier 1], and [Soaring Heaven Holy Light Wings Arts: Tier 1] have Ranked Up!]
Ah, dammit, none of the strong Martial Arts Ranked Up like I wanted!
Now, onto the last martial arts scroll item in the list…
Ding!
[You have used the [Martial Arts Evolution Scroll (S+++ Rank)] x1!]
[The Essence of this Scroll flows into your Physical Body and Spiritual Body, randomly fusing with one of your Martial Arts, and helping it evolve.]
[The Martial Arts [Myriad Self Arts: Tier 1 (Core Martial Arts)] have been chosen for Evolution!]
YES!
Ding!
[The Power of the Martial Arts [Myriad Self Arts: Tier 1 (Core Martial Arts)] is too powerful for this Item of S+++ Rank to evolve it directly.]
[However, the Martial Arts have absorbed its powers, gaining some great boost to its progress with it!]
[The [Myriad Self Arts: Tier 1 (Core Martial Arts)] Martial Art has Ranked Up to Tier 2!]
Only one Tier?!
Ah, well, this ended up being a glorified enhancement scroll at the end.
Well, I can't complain anyway.
The next batch of items was what I assumed to be consumables or something.
[Heavenly Yin & Yang Elixir (SS Rank)] x5
[Black & White Heaven Pearl (SS Rank)] x5
[Primordial Yin Crystal Fragment (SS Rank)] x5
[Primordial Yang Crystal Fragment (SS Rank)] x5
But only the first two actually are.
The last two are special gift items for my Primordial Beast mascots, new snacks for them to regain more of their divine powers, I think.
But I don't really want to just drink the elixir and absorb the pearls or whatever.
Now that I got Heavenly Alchemy, I will do some Alchemy and put it all together!
"{Heavenly Alchemy Arts}: {Great Synthesis}!"
Pouring the Heavenly Yin & Yang Elixirs, the Black & White Heaven Pearls, and some tiny fragments of the Primordial Yin Crystal Fragment and the Primordial Yang Crystal Fragment inside a cauldron, I made it boil rapidly, merging the materials together with the blood, flesh, and bones of various Martial Beasts I had stocked away, giving it more consistency and flavor.
Until then…
FLAAASH!
A single black-and-white pill emerged from the cauldron.
Ding!
[Congratulations! You have synthesized the [Heavenly Pill of Yin and Yang (SSS Rank)] x1!]
I grabbed the pill and quickly ate it, gulping it down with some water because it was too damn bitter for me to bite into it.
FLUOSH!
I instantly felt my Body and Soul traveling through a sea of black and white essence, with clouds of the same colors embracing me as I moved through.
Then. Amidst these clouds, I saw something.
A gigantic, veiled figure, made of white light and black darkness.
Like half and half of both…
She spread her hands towards me, opening them while putting them together, as if expecting a little gift coming her way.
And once I fell into her hands, I saw through her endless, rainbow-colored eyes.
FLASH!
And when I thought I was going blind, I appeared here again.
What the hell was that?!
Wait, could it be…?
The Heavenly Will is not completely dead.
If what I'm thinking is true, then…
This might be unprecedented, as it had never happened before, but.
That vision I saw.
And everything we've been doing to save this world.
It seems to be bearing fruit.
The Heavens are slowly healing after the Venerables recovered, and with a third Venerable, me, as a new pillar.
Then the Heavenly Will not only is regenerating but…
Perhaps after all these trials, her or his own story… has reached the point where they can ascend.
The Heavenly Will of Bestia might have begun to not only regenerate but also started its evolution into a Constellation.
