After obtaining the three sacred texts, their contents corroborated and decoded each other. Much of the chaotic information displayed in each text suddenly became clear, and the content contained within them became exceptionally broad.
Because the three sacred texts record in great detail Melancholy's "extremely detailed life experience, including but not limited to how she dispersed her persona three times to rebuild it, how she accumulated experience through different combinations of the Radiant Moon, how she established the Silver Radiance Church, and finally resolved the Riot of the Mad Crows, a calamity that swept across the continent."
The experience and insights gained from these three sacred texts go far beyond those extraordinary secret techniques; they are a Key unlocking and understanding this world.
The world only knows that Melancholy "once saved the entire continent," but it is unaware of the numerous setbacks and failures he encountered along the way.
The pain, but beneath that dazzling halo lies the accumulated experience and lessons learned from countless setbacks and failures.
Faced with this vast sea of memories and insights, Sylutia fell silent for a moment, feeling a surge of respect for the long-deceased Melancholy. If it were her, she probably wouldn't have been able to endure so many setbacks and blows, and finally find a glimmer of hope in countless desperate situations.
The relief of calamities allows people in peaceful times to gradually forget their horror. In fact, if the " Riot of the Mad Crows " had not been quelled in time, the Fourth Continent would very likely have become a terrible hell in that era, with countless monsters running rampant and strange plagues completely dominating the continent and eventually spreading to the whole world.
It's no wonder that many people felt sorry for Melancholy after his death.
After carefully putting away the three holy books, Sylutia slowly came back to her senses. Unfortunately, this was not the time to read. The contents of these three holy books were very extensive, and she could only look at them in detail later.
She stood up again and looked around.
She had initially wondered if there were any remains or relics of the Silver Moon Dragon here, but it seemed there weren't.
According to the records in the three holy books, Melancholy "had also searched for the things left behind by the Silver Moon Dragon in various ways, and the Land of the Moon was the first target at that time."
After investigation and verification by the Silver Radiance Church, it was found that the Silver Moon Dragon had made preparations before its passing. Instead of staying in the Land of the Moon, it found another secluded place to bury its remains. In fact, this was a very farsighted move, because the status of the Hour is extremely high compared to that of mortals. Even a single Dragon Scale on its body is a priceless treasure to many mortals.
If the Silver Moon Dragon were to die here, its remains would likely be stolen by various covetous forces within a century, a situation it certainly wouldn't want to see.
Having learned the whole story of " the Land of the Moon," Sylutia had no more regrets and prepared to return to reality. However, before leaving, she remembered something and picked a few branches and buds from the Jacaranda.
A long time ago, a close friend asked her to find Jacaranda, and today she finally encountered this legendary rare plant.
Gathering the branches of the Jacaranda and the Moon Crystals, Sylutia's figure transformed into a stream of firefly light and departed from the Land of the Moon.
Half a day later, she woke up from her dream and slowly sat up.
Looking at the familiar scene in the bedroom, Sylutia felt a wave of warmth and nostalgia, as if she had returned home after a long journey.
Although it was just a dream, the feeling was very similar.
She got out of bed, went to the living room, raised her hand, and a faint purple halo appeared, followed by a Jacaranda branch in her hand.
At that moment, a gentle breeze swept through the room, Sylutia's long black hair slowly faded, first turning brown, then light brown and transparent, and finally becoming a soft silver.
The eyes beneath her hair blinked slightly, the pupils beneath her trembling eyelashes turning a beautiful emerald green, shimmering with light as she carefully observed and sensed the condition of the branch in her hand.
Having not used the "Gardener" ability for several years, the moment he used it, those long-forgotten memories quickly resurfaced, and some habitual secret techniques were unleashed as he continuously analyzed the condition of the branches.
[ Jacaranda Branch] (Tier 3, Excellent): A plant that blooms in the Land of the Moon. It seems that it was not planted by the previous generation of the Hour, but has another origin. After blooming, the flowers will be imbued with the power of the "gathering Radiant Moon " and can also be made into special flower tea to heal spiritual wounds.
Back in the Asura District, Yingzi had asked her to "find the Jacaranda in the Land of the Moon." She had explored the Land of the Moon several times before but had never found any Jacaranda, so she thought the other party had misremembered and planned to give Yingzi some branches and leaves from the Silver Wax Tree later.
Unexpectedly, after reaching the top of the hill in the " Land of the Moon," I actually discovered Jacaranda. It was quite a wonderful coincidence.
If it weren't for the promise I made to him, I probably wouldn't have been so persistent in traveling to every corner of the Land of the Moon, and I wouldn't have seen that Jacaranda forest, and ultimately I wouldn't have obtained that sacred book.
Sylutia recalled the wondrous connections brought about by the past, and then put the branch away.
Next time I go to the Asura District, I'll bring some for Yingzi, but for now—she looked at the Moon Crystals she had accumulated in her hand.
It's time to move on to the next level.
Sylutia opened the basement door and found the Mithril Clock and the Origin Hourglass, items prepared specifically for her by the school, including many precious treasures.
"Terizui Star Silver " ( Sixth Order, Perfect)
" Aisethis Silver " ( Sixth Order, Perfect)
"Vortex Time Crystal " ( Sixth Order, Perfect)
Sanyaige Gem ( Sixth Order, Perfect)
Two of the rare metals were forged by the sages of the Mithril Clock, the Vortex Time Crystal was created using the supreme secret techniques of the Origin Hourglass school, and the Sanyaige Gem was created by the sages of the Gem School.
Even Seventh Order sage would need to pay a considerable price to obtain these extremely rare materials. After all, rare quality products are relatively easy to obtain, but perfect quality products are something that even they can only produce occasionally.
Looking at the boxes that had been opened in front of her, Sylutia sighed that these things were priceless. If it weren't for the support of the three lords, even the sage Aitos would have had a hard time gathering them in a short time.
After taking these items out, Sylutia began the first step in making the Moon Clock.
First, the main structure and gears of the Moon Clock were made using Terizui Star Silver. Then, the dial and some parts were made using Aisethis Silver. Finally, one hundred and seven cyclic runes were inscribed in the Sanyaige Gem as the foundation to stabilize the entire Moon Clock.
These Sanyaige Gem harmonize with the Terizui Star Silver, providing powerful protection for the entire Moon Clock and self-healing minor damage, keeping the Moon Clock in optimal condition without wearing out over time.
Then comes the creation of the Moon Clock's "intricate and tranquil internal structure." Aisethis Silver is perfectly suited for crafting highly precise artifacts and possesses certain temporal and spatial properties, perfectly meeting the requirements of the Moon Clock. Next comes the clock bearings and parts made from " Vortex Time Crystal," which also possess powerful "time" attributes and can be used to amplify runes and arcane spells that utilize "time" properties.
Next are the crystals representing the markers on the dial. Sylutia has refined the Moon Crystals into twelve different Lunar Phase Crystals to represent the changing phases of the moon.
Finally, there are the embedded hands. On the silver-blue metal hands of different lengths, two tiny crystals of different colors are embedded, one of which is a Rose- red color and the other is a light blue color like the sea and sky.
Sixteen days passed, and with Tia's tireless dedication, the final " Moon Clock " was successfully completed.
The silver clock Levitation, its outer edge shaped like a crescent moon, inlaid with crystals and gemstones of varying sizes, like Stars. Then there is the central dial, a deep blue color like a vast starry night, with twelve exquisite Lunar Phase Crystals of different shapes. The central hand has a slight curve in the middle, but its ends are straight like needles.
[ Origin Moon Clock ] ( Sixth Order, Legendary)
Made from numerous rare metals and gemstones and crafted with profound and precise techniques, this special clock is a perfect product of Mage's practice and integration of knowledge, skills, and path, and can serve as the core for Mage's advancement.
"Legendary quality" goes a step further than "perfect," allowing creations to surpass their limits and achieve strength and effects that surpass higher- First Order creations without increasing their rank. The creation of items of this quality often exceeds people's imagination.
Normally, if a Mage advances from the fourth tier to the Fifth Order, they only need a fourth-tier core artifact. However, if Mage has ambitions and hopes to go further in the future and surpass most of their peers after advancing, they will prepare Fifth Order core artifact. When advancing from the fourth tier to the Fifth Order, they will prepare Sixth Order core artifact, which is extremely rare in the history of the Mage Alliance.
Each leap in rank represents a dramatic increase in power, but also requires a higher level of understanding and mastery of knowledge and skills. This gap is often nearly tenfold for each rank, and nearly a hundredfold for every two ranks.
Therefore, even if ordinary Mage can obtain enough resources and materials, they dare not try it easily, because creations that are too powerful are often beyond their control and mastery during advancement. In the end, they may have the opposite effect, leading to failure in advancement and causing great damage to themselves.
The specific advancement strategy for Tia's preparation of this creation was formulated only after repeated discussions and revisions by the three Named One. Otherwise, Sylutia herself would not have easily taken the risk.
Looking at the magnificent silver clock slowly rising in her hand, Sylutia felt a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.
It was tiring and took a lot of time, but I was also very happy and satisfied; it was worth the money.
After obtaining the Moon Clock, she began setting up the final Ritual Array in preparation for her formal advancement.
