Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy
chapter-883

Heinz had just finished talking with Denise and learned that this young girl had obtained a being that he would surely love...

Unfortunately, because of the involved confidentiality agreement, Denise couldn't tell what it was. However, Denise also hinted that it was an existence equal to Immortals and Demon Saints, but they were more interesting in terms of being research subjects.

Anyway, Denise needed his expertise in bio-mechanical alchemy, but not many people were aware that Heinz was actually an expert in this as well. Aside from that, Denise also needed his skills in Runic Gearsmith and his Dark Mystic Artificer's talent.

Although Heinz wasn't that great compared to many other Dark Alchemists in these two subjects, the fact that he also had a deep knowledge about the human or Arcanist's body would surely set him apart.

Finally, Denise offered some compensation to Heinz, like Dragon Blood and Immortal Blood. He would surely join and help with Denise's project. That would happen without a doubt.

However, Denise wasn't in a hurry to take him, and Heinz was also on a mission, so this could only be done later on.

Heinz composed himself as he kept the communication crystal in his pocket and approached one of the cells, where a Demon Saint with crimson skin and glowing eyes glared at him.

The alchemist's eyes gleamed with excitement as he felt that he would be very successful this time. He had a couple of years studying these Demon Saints, and now he was on the brink of a breakthrough.

"Begin the extraction process..." Heinz commanded as he initiated the process.

One of the apprentices stepped forward, activating a series of runes on the cell. The air was then suddenly filled with energy as the containment field intensified, holding the Demon Saint in place.

Heinz carefully inserted a needle into the demon's arm, drawing a vial of its blood. The blood shimmered with an unnatural light... It was proof of the demon's immense power.

This time, however, because of the Corrupted Divinity that was released, many of the apprentices felt pressured and suffocated. They weren't in a good condition... Every time they try to extract the Blood Essence of the Demon Saint, this would always happen.

Heinz moved to his workbench, where he began to analyze the blood. He added various reagents, watching as the mixture bubbled and changed color. His goal was to isolate the essence of the demon's power and understand how it could be harnessed and controlled.

The Dark Arts Faction wanted to obtain the power to control the Corrupted Divinity! The Dark Arts Faction may say to the public that they wanted to learn more about Divinity, but it truly meant that they wanted to control it.

As he worked, Heinz's mind raced with possibilities. The Corrupted Divinity seemed to be a force of chaos and destruction, but with the right approach, it could be tamed and used to further the Dark Arts Faction's goals.

The Demon Saints held the key since their powers were like a bridge between the mortal realm's Arcanists and the divine itself.

Heinz's experiments were meticulous and methodical.

Over the past couple of years, he had already tested the blood's reaction to different elements, noting how it responded to fire, ice, lightning, and others. He had already observed its behavior under various magical influences, recording every detail in his journal.

Heinz continued his work tirelessly, but this time, he believed that he would obtain the secret of the Corrupted Divinity.

While other Dark Alchemists were still trying to communicate with other Existence from other realms about the method to harness the Corrupted Divinity, Heinz moved from one Demon Saint to the next, extracting samples as he tried to ensure that the blood would reach the same after using Malevolent Spells...

However, each demon presented unique challenges, their powers manifesting in different ways. Some had control over destruction, while others wielded dark magic or possessed incredible physical strength.

One particularly challenging subject was a Demon Saint with the ability to manipulate shadows...

'Is it similar to the Shadow Immortal?' Heinz mused.

However, he noticed that the manipulated shadow didn't have the power of Corrupted Divinity itself, so he immediately learned that it wasn't similar to the Shadow Immortal, which had traces of Divinity everywhere.

Anyway, Heinz moved on as he felt that his method of finding a way to control the Corrupted Divinity was getting close.

Throughout his experiments, Heinz relied on his apprentices to assist him. They prepared the reagents, maintained the containment cells, and recorded the results. Heinz trusted them implicitly, knowing that their loyalty was unquestionable.

As the days passed, Heinz began to see patterns in his data. The essence of the Demon Saints held a unique resonance, a frequency that could be attuned to the Corrupted Divinity. He theorized that by combining the essences in the right proportions, he could create a catalyst that would allow him to control the chaotic energy.

'Indeed... I'm going in the right direction...'

Heinz's excitement grew as he approached the final stages of his research. He carefully mixed the essences, adding the final ingredients to the concoction.

The mixture suddenly glowed with a dark, pulsating light, which was a sign that he was on the right track.

With the catalyst complete, Heinz turned his attention to the Corrupted Divinity he had collected from the Blood Essence.

This Corrupted Divinity would normally dissipate after a few hours and would just be wasted. What he wanted to do was to stop it from dissipating, and from that, they would be able to start using the Corrupted Divinity itself!

These undying Demon Saints in prison would become their source of Corrupted Divinity for

that!

This solution may not be the one that the Faction was looking for, but this was another option they could use to harness Corrupted Divinity!

Soon, he activated a series of runes on the floor, creating a summoning circle. The air became cold as he began the incantation in an ancient language, calling forth a mysterious force...

'This is it... I will create a new Artifact that can wield Corrupted Divinity! With this power, the Dark Arts Faction will rise to new heights.'
