1554 God's Pillar. II

"Don't worry, you want difficulty, you will see difficulty after one minute."

Lady Sphinx's attitude turned composed again as she sat in a floating meditation position in front of the cauldron.

Above her head, a screen appeared that showed the atomic world inside the mixture. The different molecules were in the process of breaking apart and integrating.

Felix focused on the edges of the atomic world, knowing that the dark creatures always invaded the mixture from the edges and aimed to devour the molecules until they reached the center.

'Wait, why isn't she putting a mental barrier to prepare for the dark reaction?' Felix knitted his eyebrows in confusion.

He knew that potioneers were required to place the mental barrier swiftly and enlarge it as much as possible to protect the mixture before the dark reaction began.

This would allow them to secure a significant chunk of the mixture after the integration process ends and they could move on to the final enhancement step with much larger odds of concocting the potion.

For example, if 30% of the mixture was saved from the dark reaction, the potioneer would have a 30% chance to succeed in his concoction.

Yet, Lady Sphinx kept waiting silently for close to a minute without making a single move.

What's more shocking was the fact that the dark reaction had yet to appear, which should have been impossible in Felix's eyes.

'How is it taking so long to manifest? More than 30% of the molecules have integra...'

Before Felix could finish his thought,a strange and unsettling phenomenon began to unfold within the atomic world of the mixture.

The potion's cauldron emitted a faint, ominous glow as dark, microscopic organisms emerged from the depths of obscurity...These minuscule invaders, shadowy and malevolent, seemed to appear out of nowhere.

The dark reaction was here!

Instead of showing up from the edges like a tidal wave as he anticipated, they surged explosively across the atomic landscape, popping off randomly and uncontrollably!
