Karon could still differentiate between a high-grade rank 5 spirit beast and a low-grade rank 5 soul equipment that could evolve.
Karon's heart bled madly when he saw Grimm reveal so many Tier 5 materials.
Were rank 5 materials that easy to obtain?
Even a Tier 5 Great Sorcerer would have to risk his life in order to obtain such a high-grade material. Otherwise, they would only be able to obtain some leftover materials from rank 5 creatures. How could they possibly produce a truly high-grade item with just scraps and scraps?
"Alright, alright! With this soul crystal, the chances of producing a high-grade item have increased greatly. I estimate that if the power of calamity within the soul crystal can be converted into a Halo of Calamity, there's a 60% chance that the wizard beast will be a mid-grade rank 5 creature, and a 40% chance that it'll be a high-grade one … "Karon analyzed from his professional point of view.
Grimm nodded his head in satisfaction. The A.I. Chip's analysis was similar to Karon's. At rank 5, the most difficult part of creating high-grade items was no longer the mutual promotion and suppression of the elements, but the manifestation of the power of laws contained within the materials.
The higher the grade of the materials, the more difficult it was to process them. Magi had even created a field called material science, which specialized in preserving and activating living creatures to maximize the power of the laws of materials.
Such a high-quality corpse of a multi-armed giant could be turned into a rank 5 undead by the Lich Congnas. However, the power of the laws of earth and calamity contained within the materials was not compatible with the power of death, and the loss in battle would be extremely great.
According to the A.I. Chip's calculations, it would be good if it could retain the power of an initial rank 5 creature.
For Karon to dare to say such bold words, it was obvious that he was very confident in his exquisite refinement techniques and methods.
"Since Master Karon is so confident, what price do I need to pay to refine this wizard beast for me?" At this point, even Grimm's expression turned solemn.
The difficulty of the refinement was so high that ordinary rank 4 Magi would naturally not be able to handle it. The price to hire a great rank 5 Magus would definitely not be small.
Hearing this question, Karon could not help but fall into deep thought.
After a long time, he said softly, "30 million magic crystals for 1,500 Sithe origin substance. That's the price. I can't go any lower! Of course, if you can take out a portion of Tier 5 Intermediate biological material as a reward, I can help you refine it for free. If it's Primary Grade 5, then I'll need two … "
"Then magic crystals and Origin Substance! I can still afford to pay this price. "
Thirty million mana crystals was equivalent to ten years of the Crimson Family's earnings. As for the 1500 Sith magic crystals, he had to scour the entire central continent to gather them.
However, this was not a problem for Grim.
After all, after staying in the central region for so long, he still had this bit of resources in reserve!
Since the agreement was a success, Charon immediately used his hand as a pen to draw up a Wizard Contract in the void and branded it with his Soul Brand. After checking that there were no problems, Grimm imprinted his Soul Imprint on it.
With their level of power, even the Wizard Contract, which was guaranteed by the Plane's consciousness, could not completely restrict them. Hence, their contracts were guaranteed by their own laws. If they violated the terms of the contract, they would suffer the backlash of the laws.
This also meant that Charon would no longer be able to control the laws of earth, and Grim would not be able to control the laws of fire. It sounded simple, but it had the strongest binding effect on the Great Magi who lived by laws.
No one dared to joke around with their Origins Laws. They didn't even dare to joke around!
With the guarantee of the contract, Grim could rest assured and hand over the remains of the Multi-Armed Giant, the Crystal of Petrification, and the soul crystal to Magus Charon. For these top-grade materials to be able to unleash their full potential, just the activation of the materials would require a lot of effort and a lot of time.
Hence, Grim would probably have to wait a few more years before he could obtain the finished product.
After leaving Charon's residence, Grim hesitated for a moment before walking towards the lower level of the Giant Rock Castle. This was the most active area for rank 3 and 4 Magi, as well as the busiest place in the castle's trading market.
Giant Rock Castle's fifth level, the trading area.
The war against the orcs had been going on for more than 70 years, and during this time, the Magi had already broken through 134 orc planes. Many of the rare resources that flowed out from these damaged planes fell into the hands of the high-ranking Magi who participated in the Planar War.
Hence, even though many Magi did not have a high rank, they might still have some unexpected treasures, rare treasures, or biological materials in their hands.
Hence, many times, those high and mighty Magi would secretly disguise themselves and go to these lower level trading markets to buy some cheap resources.
Grim used the law of fire to transform his body, turning into a muscular man with a face full of beard. Then, he blended into the crowd and strolled around the market.
To be honest, the higher the rank, the more primitive it was.
Most of the basic resources and materials were hung in the castle's information tower, but the more mysterious or unidentifiable items could only be sold in the form of stalls.
Hence, many high-ranked Magi set up a stall in the trading area and placed a few odd items on it. They then waited there silently. To find the true 'treasure' from the pile of rubble, it would be a test of the buyer's eyesight.
Grim walked with a smile on his face, seemingly unconcerned. However, deep in his dark red eyes, a blue light flickered as he scanned the items on the stall.
Energy radiation intensity, residual elemental undulations, surface patterns, analysis of the basic materials, frequency of the force field … Under many detection methods, as long as there was something special about these items, they would not be able to escape the A.I. Chip's detection.
After walking for a while, Grim finally stopped at a stall by the roadside.
The owner of the stall was a rank 3 Elemental Magus, and he was currently flipping through a book on magic spells in boredom. On top of the stall's black cloth were three strange-looking items, and it was difficult to tell what they were used for.
The first item seemed to be a piece of armour that had fallen off, and there were still some indistinct magic patterns and faint elemental undulations on it. According to the A.I. Chip's appraisal, it should be a fragment of some sword armour. As it was not a core part, its value was not high.
Apart from the metal material that had some research value, it did not have much use.
The second item was a tungsten steel longsword. The blade was long and narrow, and it was flat without a sharp edge. There were no magic patterns carved on it, nor were there any magic gems embedded in it. It was simple and plain, like an ordinary sword.
However, for some reason, when Grim's gaze landed on it, he felt an overbearing, sharp, and impending coldness.
The third item was a pitch-black stone the size of an egg. Its surface was as smooth as a cobblestone, and he could not sense the aura of magic from it either.
As if sensing Grimm's gaze lingering on a few items, the wizard stall owner hurriedly put away his book and welcomed him with a smile.
Magi who could make a living here were no fools. Although Grim had changed his appearance and restrained his aura of laws, the stall owner could not sense his rank at all.
This was enough to explain the problem!
The only ones who could fool around in this market were either Grade-4 or Great Sorcerers who were on a whim. Hence, the stall owner calmed himself down and took the initiative to introduce the items passionately.
"My lord, these items are all from the orc plane. Which one are you interested in?"
Grim first picked up the longsword and tried to sense it from a close distance, but he could not sense any elemental aura. However, the cold aura that was pressing down on him caused him to feel a chill. Although there were no traces of blood on it, there was a bloody aura that assaulted his senses.
"What is this sword? It doesn't seem to be a magic weapon?"
The stall owner smiled and explained, "This is indeed not a magic weapon, but a ferocious sword that possesses' blood aura '. Its owner was once a peak rank 4 Sword Saint, and he had already infused a small portion of his will into the sword. That's why it is so different from the others. "
Sword Saint?
Grim frowned slightly.
This was one of the more common professions in the orc plane, and only the elites of the orc warriors could advance. Most of their weapons were one-handed greatswords without any elemental force. They were famous for their explosive power, and any spell caster's elemental barrier would be as weak as an eggshell in front of them.
"What about this black stone?" Grim put down the longsword and finally focused his attention on the black stone.
According to the A.I. Chip's senses, he could actually sense traces of the aura of laws on it. Anything that had the aura of laws was good stuff.
"I don't know either …" The stall owner scratched his head and said dejectedly, "These items were obtained from a Sword Saint. My party spent a lot of effort to kill him, and I only got these three items. As for what exactly this black stone is? I wanted to appraise it, but the information tower listed a fee of 300,000 magic crystals … I could only give up! "
Grim listened attentively as he examined the black stone in his hand.
Finally, he confirmed that it was a seed!
The problem now was whether the aura of laws on the seed had come into contact with it because it was close to a certain area, or if it was inherent in its origin. If it was the latter, then this seed could be classified as a grade 5 material.
"Tell me, how many magic crystals do you intend to sell this for?" Since he had his suspicions, Grim did not hesitate to make a move.
"Since the appraisal fee for this item is 300,000 magic crystals, I think its original value should be no less than 1,200,000!" Seeing that a big customer had arrived, the stall owner hurriedly opened his mouth and stated a 'sky-high price' that made him blush.
