The World's Greatest Freeloader (Monthly Ticket Request)

Spreading the Arcane Path had been something Ian had wanted to do for a long time.

At its core, the Arcane Path had three crucial "technical nodes."

The first technical node was the "Meditation Method," built upon the computational structure of Artificial Souls and Star God's Gift.

The second technical node was the "Origin Matter Furnace Core," which used the immense increase in computational power brought by the Meditation Method to regulate the circulation of Origin Matter throughout the body, allowing compression or acceleration at will.

The third—and most important—technical node was the "artificial sublimation organ," made possible by powerful computational capacity and control over one's own Origin Matter.

The three technical nodes complemented one another, each step following the last. Not one could be omitted.

And Ian had yet to complete the third technical node.

Artificial sublimation organs required far too much computational power. One also had to dissect oneself, then optimize the organ according to one's own physical condition, in order to avoid aberration or failed sublimation.

That was why even the Ascension Path, which relied on drinking Magic Potions, had such a thing as "talent." Some people might simply have extraordinarily sensitive genes, too many allergens, or aberrant points within their bodies stirred by sublimation organs, leaving them completely unable to advance.

To overcome this, the Arcane Path needed a "standard sublimation organ model." Using it as a benchmark, each individual could be optimized according to their physique. From then on, practitioners of the Arcane Path could freely cultivate any bloodline true form, unaffected by physical limitations.

And therein lay the problem.

Who possessed standard sublimation organ models?

Not even the Sparks did—the Sparks belonged to alien civilizations and had little to do with human standards. The Star Gods had never considered a path of putting other
