On the next day, Van continued his research. With the help of his Ocularis Lens, he soon tried a micro-refinement process, using a small fragment of the Spiritual Kiss Flower combined with boiled Ashroot and Molten Bark Dust…
Thankfully, he had eight Spiritual Kiss Flowers and only five of them were needed in the real concoction. Because of that, he had some extra time for experimentation to study the behavior or the properties of the flower, so he could gather more information on how to approach the concoction process.
As for the other ingredients, all these ingredients were, of course, obtained through various means with the connections he made over the past few months.
Van then let the substance settle, then applied a strand of his Aura to observe its interaction.
Boom—!
The reaction sparked for a second before vanishing harmlessly.
Van coughed out smoke but grinned. His hypothesis was right. The ingredients reacted positively, albeit violently.
