After reading everything on the screen, Lin Fan shook his head, feeling rather underwhelmed.
"Too bad. This thing isn't of any real use to me."
He casually tossed the storage device back into the depths of his Space Ring, then turned and walked back into the transport ship, closing the hatch behind him.
With a sweep of his arm, Calamity appeared in his palm.
At the same time, 520 tons of C9 Rank metal, Star Spirit Silver Mother, appeared on the ship's floor.
"Come on, let's see how far all this metal can help you evolve."
Hmm!
With a hum, a black-and-purple domain unfurled around Calamity, swallowing the mountain of Star Spirit Silver Mother whole.
The devouring was more violent than ever before. Under the black-and-purple domain's shroud, huge chunks of Star Spirit Silver Mother rapidly softened and liquefied, turning into streams of silver.
The silver streams converged into one torrent within the domain, then poured forcefully into Calamity's blade.
Only a few minutes later, the entire metal mountain had been devoured before Lin Fan's eyes, without even a trace of residue left behind.
As the final glimmer of silver vanished, the system's notifications sounded.
[Devoured C9 Rank pure metal: 520 tons.] [Calamity growth progress: +74%, current growth progress: 100%.] [Load compatibility: +74%, current load compatibility: 300%.] [Weapon density has undergone a qualitative increase. Current weight: 1,000 tons.] [ Ding! Calamity growth progress has reached 100%.] [Energy accumulation complete.] [Conditions met. Beginning rank advancement.]
Hmm!
Lin Fan felt as though the space around him had frozen in an instant. The air grew viscous as mercury.
In midair, Calamity's formerly black, matte blade began to tremble faintly. The dark-purple patterns on it didn't flare with light; instead, they receded like the tide, frantically converging at the very tip of
