In the underground laboratory at No. 7 Wisteria Lane, a faint, earthy smell lingered in the air.
Ian stood at the Alchemy Platform, his gaze fixed on the three main ingredients laid out before him.
The first was the Tier Three Earth Monarch Blood Essence, deeply activated through Original Blood Origin Tracing.
Inside the Crystal Bottle, a phantom mountain range within the dark gold liquid was several times clearer than before.
At the edges of the phantom, faint golden veins could be seen slowly pulsing, like a slumbering heart.
The second was a fist-sized Tier Three Rock Dragon Heart Core.
The heart core was a dark yellow, its surface covered in honeycomb-like pores, while a viscous, magma-like Energy flowed within.
Aidele had just acquired this through her family's channels at great cost.
The third was a complete Earth Vein Flower.
Its petals were dark gold, layered one upon another, as if sculpted from solidified rock.
