Garion's gaze also shifted and landed on the first version of this [Limit Break Serum].

---

[Limit Break Serum – Mana Pool Cell Version]

[Ingredients: First Realm Essence, Spirit Fruit Extract, and Condensed Spirit Liquid.]

[Effect: Forcibly stimulates a portion of the user's mana cells, refining and tempering them into Perfect Mana Pool Cells, rapidly advancing the user's cultivation within the Mana Cells Refinement Realm.]

[Side Effect: Causes intense fatigue, body heat, mana overflow, and short-term numbness throughout the body during transformation.]

[Taste: Disgustingly sour and painfully salty. Makes the tongue cramp, the throat burn, and the mind question every life choice.]

---

Garion blinked at the screen for a few seconds, rubbing his eyes.

"Disgustingly sour and painfully salty... mind questening flavour... Yeah, sounds about right."

He crossed his arms, rubbing his chin.

"So this one helps the First Realm cultivators strengthen their mana cells faster. Not bad. But these ingredients…"

He scrolled down and frowned. "First Realm Essence, Spirit Fruit Extract, and Condensed Spirit Liquid?"

He tilted his head. "I've never even seen or heard these before. Where the hell am I supposed to find them?"

But what really shocked him was that both versions of [Limit Break Serum] weren't greyed out on the list.

"You're kidding me... Do I already have these ingredients? System, mind explaining it to me?"

[First Realm Essence]

[Description: A single drop formed by condensing the essence of multiple First Realm creatures through a special extraction process.]

[Effect: Directly enhances the cultivation of First Realm cultivators.]

[Side Effect: Certain death if not properly digested within a day.]

[Taste: Varies depending on the creatures used.]

---

[Spirit Fruit Extract]

[Description: A condensed liquid made from refining multiple mana-rich fruits through a special extraction process.]

[Effect: Directly boosts mana circulation and increases mana absorption rate within the user's body.]

[Side Effect: Certain death if not properly digested within a day.]

[Taste: Varies depending on the fruits used.]

---

[Condensed Spirit Liquid]

[Description: A refined drop created by compressing and liquefying multiple mana ores through a special process.]

[Effect: Directly enhances the user's overall power and mana output, temporarily boosting strength, durability, and mana intensity beyond normal limits.]

[Side Effect: Certain death if not properly digested within a day.]

[Taste: Varies depending on the ores used.]

---

Garion was surprised to see the three descriptions.

"Whoever designed these ingredients clearly had no concept of moderation."

He then rubbed his forehead, sighing.

"So... all three can kill you if not digested right. And yet, the effects are quite incredible."

He smirked faintly. "Typical cultivation logic."

He stood up and started walking around.

"So basically, all of these are made by condensing other things... beasts, fruits, ores... which means I can already create them."

He thoguht for a second, then narrowed his eyes, realizing something.

"Wait... For the First Realm Essence… I can use the demonic boars, but for the Second Realm one..."

Garion rubbed his chin, staring at the colored second version of the Limit Break Serum.

"The only Second Realm corpses I have are those cultivators' bodies…"

He stopped mid-sentence, his brow twitching as he realised what it meant.

"Wait... every creature means every creature?"

He blinked a few times, then leaned closer to the screen. "You mean to tell me... that even humans count?"

The System didn't answer, but the silence was the confirmation he needed.

"Damn.. that's both useful and quite messed up at the same time."

He walked around, thinking about how he should create those supplements.

"So, for the First Realm Essence, I can use the demonic boars the disciples hunted. That part's easy."

He stopped, looking thoughtful. "But for the Second Realm Essence..."

He crossed his arms, frowning. "Let's see... I have about eight corpses total."

He thought about it more, raising four fingers on both hands.

"Four were those that Dahlia brought back, and four were from the elders I killed before moving here."

He tapped the table with his fingers.

"And also, I already promised her that I turned those four into cadavers, so I can't touch those four she brought."

He sighed, tilting his head slightly.

"Which means I can only use the four elders' corpses. Hah, serves them right for trying to kill me."

He looked back at the screen. "System, how many are needed to make a single drop of Second Realm Essence?"

---

[System Notice]

[Realm Essence, Spirit Fruit Extract, and Condensed Spirit Liquid can all be synthesized using one or more ingredients.]

[The resulting product will vary in quality, purity, and potency depending on the grade and number of materials used.]

---

Garion nodded slowly, reading it carefully. "So it depends on quality and numbers, huh..."

He rubbed his chin again. "If I use one corpse per serum, that should be able to make four Second Realm Essences."

His grin appeared. "And if I combine all four, maybe I can make one stronger version."

He thoguht for a moment again.

"Hmm... better to have more for testing. Let's stick with four drops first. I can always make a stronger batch later."

He stretched his neck and cracked his knuckles, smirking faintly. "Alright then. Time to put these corpses to use."

He turned toward the system, smirking.

"System, use those four Second Realm corpses and create four [Limit Break Serum – Mana Core Cell Version]."

The System chimed in response.

[Command Confirmed.]

[Extracting materials…]

Garion watched as the icons of four Second Realm corpses in his storage flickered, vanishing one by one.

"Goodbye, old fools," he muttered with a smirk.

[Extracting organic essence… Condensing spirit fruit… Liquefying mana ores…]

Before him, the holographic projection displayed faint shapes of human silhouettes dissolving into streams of light.

They then merged with glowing orbs that resembled fruits and shards of crystal.

All of it swirled together in a vortex of colour, spinning faster and faster until it collapsed into a single bright flash.

Then, with a soft chime, the light faded.

[Synthesis Complete.]

[4x Limit Break Serum – Mana Core Cell Version created.]

Garion blinked once. "That was quite fast."

He opened his inventory, and four small vials appeared in his palm.

Each one glowed faintly, filled with thick liquid swirling in different colour shades.
