When they found Xianxian, she was still meditating, and her aura was noticeably stronger.
Without disturbing her, Luo Fan began his research.
The two high-level water-type magic cores likely both originated from the ocean. One of the inscriptions represents waves, and the other represents depth. The latter clearly has the connotation of the deep sea and is very suitable to serve as the main inscription.
Oh, ocean, you are the greatest treasure trove!
Just then, Freya appeared out of nowhere, staring longingly at Luo Fan who was studying.
"Two new inscriptions! Are you planning to transfer them to Xianxian again?"
"Yes, I have that idea. These two are clearly water-type, it just depends on which one she likes." He didn't avoid the girl, otherwise, if he really angered her, who knows what trouble might follow.
"Hey, you can't avoid me this time."
Luo Fan ignored her and, after studying for a while, woke up Xianxian who was standing next to him.
"Brother Fan, are you planning to save the last one for the shill?"
"Hmm, both of them are pretty good. The one with the waves is more suitable for your control of water elements."
"Okay, then I'll choose this pretty one," Xianxian replied, pointing to the magic core inside Luo Fan's stomach, smiling happily.
Narcissus, as a water spirit, has a strong ability to control water, but she rarely has the opportunity to use it.
"Okay! Freya, find us a secluded place, I'll go inform Caitlin."
Soon, inside the manor's secret chamber, three girls stared expectantly at Xianxian and Luo Fan in her arms, eagerly awaiting what would happen next.
Freya even planned to record it, but Luo Fan directly refused.
"If this video of you gets out, I'm doomed. If you want to see it, go ahead and see it. But if you do anything else, I'll avoid you from now on."
After a series of threats, the girl finally became much more obedient.
To explain things clearly to these girls, Luo Fan deliberately slowed down his movements.
"First do it this way, then do it that way, and now we've found the source of the inscription. Follow the source, and then trace it step by step."
Listening to Luo Fan's explanation, the four girls stared blankly, their eyes filled with innocent naiveté. Even Freya was puzzled. "Is detaching from inscriptions really that simple? How come I've never succeeded before?"
Could it be that it will take place inside the slime? Is there some special key hidden inside its body?
Before they could think any further, Luo Fan had already manipulated the inscriptions and injected them into the waiting Immortal Demon Core.
Thanks to Xiaoxue's cooperation last time, Xianxian actively enveloped these energies, which greatly improved efficiency.
Luo Fan removed the needle in time this time, preventing a repeat of the previous incident. The water-based inscription was not as extreme, and the entire inscription was quickly retained within Xianxian's magic core.
Immediately afterwards, Xianxian entered meditation, and the transfer was over. Now it was up to the girl to take the initiative.
"Is that all?" Freya was not satisfied at all.
"Of course, it's nothing to begin with; you're just overcomplicating it. Once it's separated, all you need to do is provide it with a suitable environment to allow it to unfold again."
"The most complicated part is actually the initial extraction. Once the inscription is damaged, it can easily cause unnecessary trouble."
"So, it has to be done inside a slime?"
"I don't know either, I just use this method because it reduces energy loss. It must be because of my magic-locking inscription." As he explained to them, Luo Fan suddenly understood something.
Locking the magic seal seems to be the foundation for inscription extraction. Only by avoiding energy loss and creating a stable operating environment can the next steps be taken.
Perhaps it was this discovery that gave the old witch a deeper understanding of inscriptions than others. Perhaps her journey to the Demon-Sealing Tower was also driven by this consideration.
Luo Fan guessed that the woman might have discovered human inscriptions, which was why she chose to stay in the Demon Sealing Tower to preserve herself to the greatest extent possible.
"The Demon Lock? No wonder! My family used to be very careful when studying inscriptions, afraid of damaging them. But no matter how careful they were, there would still be damage. Now they don't dare to study them casually anymore."
Freya suddenly realized that by following Luo Fan, she could always find the true meaning of exploration. However, to create such an environment, besides the Demon Sealing Tower, there was only a Demon Sealing Array; it seemed the royal family possessed such an array plate.
"Luo Fan, if I stand inside the demon-sealing formation, can I perform a similar operation?"
Wow, this girl is pretty smart! She's already learned to apply what she's learned to other situations!
"Theoretically, it's possible, but with magic sealed, it really tests one's control over their divine sense. After all, removing the inscriptions also tests one's ability to manipulate minute amounts of magic power; otherwise, it would be a waste."
"If it's just for research purposes, the Demon Sealing Array is indeed quite good, as the magic elements inside are stagnant."
"I see. It's just that magic-sealing arrays have always been regarded as ominous by magicians, are difficult to obtain, and have a limited duration. If you want to study them in depth, the magic-sealing tower is the best place. No wonder my idol eventually went there too."
After their conversation, Freya understood a lot of things.
Caitlyn and Toria, who had been listening silently, also looked thoughtful. At this moment, their understanding of inscriptions was at least one version ahead of the rest of the world.
Luo Fan didn't speak again, but focused on sensing Xianxian's changes. With the addition of this inscription and the spiritual materials prepared for her beforehand, the little girl clearly showed signs of a second development.
When she finally recovered from her meditation, Luo Fan used acupuncture to examine her again. Her main inscription had many more branches, almost to the point of overshadowing the main one.
At this point, the girl's level had stopped at 49. Her main rune had also been identified by Luo Fan: Shapeshifting, adapting to the situation, and moving with the help of water. The more water elements she could utilize in the surrounding area, the stronger her abilities would become—a rune type that was very late-game oriented.
"Brother Fan, I feel a bit lightheaded and disoriented." After Luo Fan finished examining her, Xianxian expressed her feelings, "I feel a bit hungry."
"Eat all the spiritual materials I gave you, and you should be fine. Caitlin, give Xianxian some more mid-grade spiritual materials. It shouldn't be long before she advances."
"Really? Xianxian is going to break through level 50 too?" Hearing Luo Fan's call, the girl reacted and looked at her pet with surprise.
"Of course, it will be almost over once she finishes digesting it."
Xianxian is basically settled; all that's left is to continue feeding her. Once Xianxian's condition stabilizes, she can take me for a ride on the sea.
Riding the waves will surely be another wonderful experience, since the ocean is nearby anyway.
Caitlin looked at her fairy with great excitement, but suddenly felt a little confused and entered a meditative state.
Haha, the pets' feedback has started again.
But after experiencing so much feedback, why doesn't it seem like Ellie's improvement is very obvious?
Looking at Caitlin sitting quietly to the side, Luo Fan fell into deep thought.
Could it be that Ellie's talent is really not that great? Or is it because the type of inscription she absorbed was wrong, so the help it provided to her wasn't as obvious as she had imagined?
I wonder if going back to train these mediocre people will have any negative impact on her.
Afterwards, the girls quieted down, but Toria kept staring at Luo Fan, as if she had thought of something.
