Earth's Greatest Magus
chapter-417

The shimmering golden vial was his newest concoction, a recipe made by using the [Gaia Essence] he received from the high priestess.

The golden liquid contained pure energy, just like a spirit stone. After several instances of trial and error, alongside various controlled tests, Emery finally came up with this new potion.

[Gaia Serum - Tier 1]

Its effects were similar to the green potion he received from Master Grom, but its quality was still far from reaching the level needed to pass into the spirit serum level.

After going through his numerous tests, he concluded the potion ultimately did not give any benefits to his spirit force at all. He assumed it would only be useful for low rank acolytes.

However, he still had to be really careful with this. From the knowledge he gained from the academy, spirit energy potions such as these were varied. There were many similar products made from different energy sources and they tended to be unstable, possessing the ability to ruin a person's cultivation if not careful.

Therefore, Emery has been testing it out weekly in small doses, utilizing the Fey sisters as his subjects. With all of them having different aptitudes, it would provide him with a better understanding of the serum's specifications and ways to increase its effectiveness in the future.

Now that he was more confident with the serum, he planned to start giving several dosages to Arthur as well, hence keeping his promise in aiding him to pull the sword.

Aside from that, there was actually another reason he tested it on the Fey sisters in particular. The reason was the shiny crimson vial he was grasping in his other hand.

Emery accessed the recipe given to him by Silva and scanned the list of ingredients again. In order to create a successful serum he needed three main components.

[Fey Gene Blood] [Reagents] [Acid]

Emery had been experimenting with various methods to separate the Fey genes from the blood. These were all came from the note given by Silva. The potion he made before doing the [fragmentation] was created to do the separation

He also tried having them transform into the Fey state, having them stay that way for several hours and, shortly after returning to their human forms, he would collect fresh blood from them.

He had been collecting tiny amounts of the Fey gene essence every week and today he finally had enough to experiment on.

In terms of the reagents, Emery managed one with 100% potency by perfecting his blue powder recipe. [Reagent - Tier 2]

As for the acid, fortunately, his one-seeded caracas flower had shown its effects. The caves he chose to plant the flower in was starting to become completely infested with the red flower, covering the cave floors and creeping up their walls. Despite the results, they were somehow still in an early stage of growth. Emery carefully twisted a few of the flowers off their stems for his experiments.

With half of the ingredients he required being unavailable on Earth, he could only settle with what he currently had. This meant creating another new acid recipe, with his experience in this area Emery managed to barely create a tier 2 acid with the ingredients he had.

[Acid potion - Tier 2]

This was the result he ended up with. The two acid potions and reagents were now ready to be combined with the silvery crimson blood vial he collected from the girls. Finally, he began concocting the [Fey Gene Booster].

Emery threw himself into his work, pouring himself into his experiments day in and day out. After a few days of being completely undisturbed, he was finally able to make a product that was ready for use. With shaky hands, he lifted the vial.

[Fey Gene Booster Tier 1]

[Potency Strength 32% - Failure]

Emery cast [Fragmentation] on it, and started to work again in order to make a perfected version of the potion. He made dozens of prototypes, so he could select the best out of all of them for actual use.

[Fey Gene Booster Tier 1]

[Potency Strength 48% - Failure]

Unfortunately, it was still a failure. He rubbed his fingers on his temple absentmindedly. Emery could see the third item, the blood, as it was continuously being dominated by the other pair of Tier 2 ingredients.

He was just about to give up, his hand resting on his forehead exasperatedly, when he had an idea. His expression suddenly brightened as he grabbed his small knife and quickly cut his hand, drawing his own blood.

When he combined it with the liquid and use [fragmentation] to his own blood he realizes he has more amount of silvery crimson blood on him. He hopes fey gene essence inside him will be the answer to it all, at least he hoped so.

As soon as he put it in, the concoction immediately started to clot. The blood, the acid and the reagents all worked harmoniously together, balancing each other out to create the final product.

[Fey Gene Booster Tier 1]

[Potency Strength 92%]

Emery was desperate to give the booster a try, but he suddenly thought of another way to make it stronger.

He took a walk towards the shrine in order to meet the high priestess lady of the lake. She greeted him with a delicate smile.

"High priestess, forgive me if this seems strange, but I am wondering if it is possible to give me some of your… Blood?"

It was an awkward request but the high priestess was kind enough to accept. Not waiting any longer, after another day of concoction, he finally succeeded.

[Fey Gene Booster Tier 2]

[Potency Strength 70%]

Knowing the potion was limited and only made with what he had right now, Emery quickly consumed it. As he drank it, new information immediately started to emerge in his mind.

[Your bloodline just went through purifying process]

[Genes purified]

[Fey Wolf gene essence percentage increased to 23%]

[All wolf bloodline abilities increased]

[Sense sharpness increased]

[Stamina increased]

[Regenerative abilities increased]

An increase of two percent? This new information delighted Emery. Even the booster given by Bob only gave him a one percent increase. These new recipes combining with the other fey genes do seem very effective. He excitedly clasped his hands together, grateful for finally achieved making the gene booster potion.

Now all he had to do was make more for him and the sisters. Hopefully, this recipe would be enough to push him towards a breakthrough to Rank 4. Once he reached it, he would be able to start using the item given by the wolf patriarch.

Author Note:

Dear Earth Greatest Magus Reader, thank you for your support.

Its really really amazing how much love and support you gave to me and the Novel

My July Chapters are:

Blood Elf Monarch 63 chapters

Earth Greatest Magus 52 chapters

This July I managed to write a total of 115 chapters, 5 chapters short of my monthly target, but I hope to finally reach it in August.

These days I see more novels having 2000-3000 coins for their highest privilege tier, and honestly, I receive less this month for lowering my privilege price. But I don't regret it and plan to give the same price again this month.

If you really wish to support me more, please do so by

Reading my other two novels Blood Elf Monarch and Doomsday Pillars. Which all three are under the same universe, just different times and places and will eventually intertwine later.

The Blood Elf Monarch is currently 5th rank in the spirit competition and really needs much more support.

It is my wish to have the new novel Blood Elf Monarch win the competition. I hope with the promise of adaptation, it will make my dream/ our dream of having the whole universe; Emery, Tristan, and Alex from the Three novels become graphics or animation will come true.
