Chapter 496 Very Cute Cat
All the rooms where the middle demon lives are decorated with gorgeous chandeliers, and the light is soft and warm. The demon's private library is the most eye-catching place in the mansion. It houses a variety of ancient books and scrolls. The bookshelves are as high as the ceiling. The covers of the books are full of traces of time, and the air is filled with the faint smell of ink and paper. Deep in the mansion, there is a secret room where Xingluo's spiritual power first fell. This room is probably where the demon performs rituals and research. The walls of the secret room are engraved with magic symbols, and complex magic circles are drawn on the ground. This is the source of the demon's power and his most private space. The entire mansion seems to be isolated from the world, a mysterious place that exists in the city but is independent of the city. The middle demon is here, immersed in his world, studying ancient magic and exploring unknown areas.
Xingluo patiently followed the middle-level demon into this residence filled with a strange atmosphere. He did not feel fear because he felt that this demon had no intention of harming him. Maybe it really wanted his help in making the cursed object. Anyway, he also wanted to use the other party to leave this level of the abyss. It was a win-win situation. Except for Camilla, a middle-level demon who advanced through hard work, other middle-level demons have their own inheritance, so they also know how to leave each level of the abyss. This is the information Xingluo needs to get.
"How is it? Is it nice here? Do you want to live here with me?" The middle-level demon glanced at Xingluo with a smile and licked his rosy lips.
Xingluo shuddered subconsciously, "There's no need to live here, let's talk about the cursed object." Xingluo did not directly say his intention to leave this layer of the abyss. After all, he didn't know whether he could help the other party complete the production of the cursed object. If not, there was no need to expose his needs too early. Although he had other things to exchange, it would be better not to expose too much of what he had if the problem could be solved with the cursed object.
The middle-ranking demon seemed to no longer "tease" Xingluo, "Hmm? It seems like you can't wait any longer. Then let me first tell you the requirements of the cursed object. Well, first of all, the cursed object needs to reach the realm of no darkness, and not even a trace of the curse can leak out."
Xingluo nodded indifferently. He had already reached the realm of darkness, so this request was easy to meet. The middle-level demon seemed relieved after seeing Xingluo's reaction, and continued, "First of all, this cursed item has a negative effect when used. It can enhance strength. By using it, I can improve my combat ability, spellcasting ability, and abyssal power."
"Well, no problem. Anything else?" Xingluo's eyes flickered when the other party talked about the power of the abyss. The power of the abyss is different from the power of dark magic. It is a kind of divine power. If he wants to rely on cursed objects to enhance this power, he needs to communicate with this layer of the abyss. He is not proficient in this aspect, which is why it is difficult for him to leave this layer of the abyss. If he wants to tear the space of the abyss, he must understand the power of the abyss. This omnipresent power hinders him from teleporting over ultra-long distances. If he can understand the power of the abyss in the process of making cursed objects, he will have some confidence even if he leaves by himself.
"When making the curse, I need you to perform a certain ritual. This is a specific ritual passed down in our bloodline. This curse must be completed through the ritual." Seeing that Xingluo did not speak, the middle-level demon continued speaking.
"These items are key components of the ritual. Without them, this cursed object cannot be completed." The middle-level demon took out several items from the space ring and placed them in front of Xingluo.
Xingluo narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at these items. Dark metals are metals extracted from the depths of hell or cursed ores. There are Hades Iron and Shadow Steel. These metals have magical properties and can enhance the power of cursed objects. Demon blood is the blood of the middle demons themselves. These bloods have powerful magic and can give cursed objects evil power. Soul fragments are parts of the souls of creatures captured by demons. These soul fragments are sealed in items and give the items some power of the abyss. Evil eyes are the eyeballs from certain abyssal creatures, especially those with evil power, such as basilisks or evil eyes. These eyeballs are used to enhance the curse effect of cursed objects. The remains of undead creatures, the bone tissues of zombies, vampires or other undead creatures, these materials carry the breath of death and corruption, and are suitable for making cursed objects. Forbidden books are ancient books containing forbidden knowledge and dark spells. These books containing evil knowledge can be used to make items with powerful curse effects. Venom and toxins, venom from highly toxic creatures, such as venomous snakes or spiders, these substances can be used to enhance the negative effects of cursed items. Tears of pain, tears shed by cursed creatures or souls tortured by demons, these tears contain strong emotional energy and can enhance the curse power of cursed items. Demonic arrays, specific magic arrays used when making cursed items unique to mid-level demons, these arrays need to be drawn with special materials, using my blood mixed with shadow energy. Star dust. Mysterious substances from falling meteors or the universe, these substances have the ability to connect to other dimensions or enhance magical effects.
Xingluo's eyes became solemn after listening to the introduction of the middle-level demon. These dark materials of the other party were extremely precious, which also meant that the curse to be made at that time would not be of low level. When making the curse, he would definitely be drained of the magic power in his body again and again. Would it be dangerous for him to expose himself to this demon of unknown depth? This was a problem he had to consider.
In demonic society, possession of powerful cursed items signifies status and power, and demons may seek such items in order to elevate their status among their kind.
"As for the negative effects of the cursed object, I want to be immune to certain demons' spells and be able to use these effects to deal with the enemy. It will cause damage to creatures that come into contact with it, but I can control this power and turn it into a means of attacking the enemy." The middle demon paused when he said this, and seemed a little hesitant, but after looking at the dark materials on the ground, he finally decided to say it: "Of course, I need you to design this cursed object like this."
The middle-level demon threw a drawing to Xingluo after he finished speaking. Xingluo looked down and found a drawing of a very cute cat on it.
