When the guy took a green cloudy stone that contained the formation with medical recipe and infused pure energy inside, the fog seeped in his nose and in his mind appeared quite legible information about ingredients, methods of production, properties, including all sorts of nuances and subtleties. Not to mention a small area of ​​incomprehensible neural connections that appeared in his brain describing the way of making the medicine (or rather, the part that is made by way of the elements). Any medicine is created mainly with the help of elemental energy. The alchemists handle the ingredients through the elements.

The same thing happened with medicine for the unique body. Only, there was also the information for the owner how to develop the body properly, what abilities will be added with each next energy phase.

When the guy took a cloudy stone that contained a technique, the basic information about the technique appeared in his head: its attribute, energy consumption, power, weakness and much more, including all the nuances and subtleties. And then appeared the same obscure set of neural connections that had to be deciphered.

Even when he found some special formations such as searching marks or directions for enchanting things, the acc.u.mulation of neural connections kept appearing. He still had to get his head around them.

All that he'd studied have one thing in common -he needed to a.n.a.lyze neural connections and reach enlightenment.

Kyon had a reasonable question: {Why all the difficulties? Isn't it easier to clearly explain the directions to make things, how to shape the channel so that the technique ran properly? How to produce the pill with no mistakes?}

The answer was not long in coming: everyone's channel works in its own way. A certain channel shape defines one parameter for the outgoing energy for some while it's quite different for others.

When a pract.i.tioner studies the nephrite, a set of neural connections appears in their mind, which they need to make out and decrypt in their own way, translate into the language of their channels. After that, they will have access to the technique, the grade of elements, the directions for the formation / unique body, the correct dose of the medicine.

For example, each person can see the blue color in different tones, but this is not the point... It is important to understand that the color is blue and not something else. This is how the understanding of neural connections works in everyone. Through enlightenment.

There is no common language for the keys. It cannot exist in principle. When a master teaches a student, they need to have a nephrite with a copy or the basis of knowledge. The master gives a presentation, sitting next to the student until the student finds the common ground through the vibrations emanating from the master and due to their own training and, as a result, reaches enlightenment.

Consequently, it is impossible to teach someone the skills related to the channels without a nephrite. The nephrite itself (the basis) can only be created by craftsmen but not the ordinary students who have discovered the knowledge by enlightenment and come to the result, without really understanding how and why it all works.

Kyon summed it all up:

1) Stealing the original is madness. It requires a high level of access and a free way to the heart of the family (the treasury) to get the nephrite with the basis.

2) Copying nephrite with heritage is impossible. It takes a master who understands the essence of the directions / technique not at the superficial level.

That leaves his method of understanding via Synergy (complete a.n.a.lysis of information to the smallest detail) which allows to duplicate any knowledge as he pleases.

It was the subject of his interest. It's especially good news that he discovered another advantage over the others: he can copy the heritage.

He was also impressed by the method of transmitting "understandable" information from the formation (nephrite) to the mind. He wondered: {Can I transfer the whole book to my brain at once?} - and immediately refuted this idea. The duration amount of short-term memory is very small, and the duration long-term memory is also limited.

Unless his brain where everything is sorted out on the shelves can easily absorb such amounts of information without sleep. It's not for ordinary people. In fact, studying everything in sight is a way to end up with the worst headache possible and more than that, nosebleeds and fainting happen quite often.

Meanwhile, Juno had finished granting access to all the nephrites. She was staring at the servant with wide eyes open. In the upper treasury, no nephrites created neural connections in the mind but this one is full of them. Her "master" had been studying the nephrites for more than ten hours and there was no sign of the impact. {Why?! How can he be still standing? Is he a human at all?!}

As far as she knew her servant, he would never pretend to impress her. He couldn't care less about her opinion. Therefore, something unimaginable was going on.

Kyon was fully immersed in the study of the family heritage: a lot of techniques for different elements, each with their own requirements and direction. Hundreds different medical recipes, an endless number of recipes for unique bodies, a couple of dozen directions for enchantment, as well as lots of formations with techniques of a certain direction. It's unlikely he'll ever bother to learn them. He doesn't need to. He's already a formacist of a divine rank if such exists at all.

The young man was especially pleased when he came across the advanced grade of all elements. He can now master the ether, the darkness and the light at the advanced grade, thereby enhancing them (and hence he will remove some of the restrictions of heaven). He knew, or rather had a hunch, that the lightning won't keep trying to fry him. The elements are under his control, he'll just unleash their true power. However, the proof of the pudding is in the eating.

The guy was disappointed that any unique body he could take from the Stones had no more than a "C" rank. And even those were only a few.

«Master, in this secret compartment there are two bodies of a "B" rank.» – Juno noticed his discontent and decided to b.u.t.ter him up.

Kyon picked up two recipes but after he carefully studied them, he frowned. Judging by the abilities they give the owner, their rank is a peak "C", not "B" at all. It seems that the one who sold those bodies had tricked the patriarch.

The guy put the recipe back, which disappointed Juno a little, and continued to study the unique bodies of a lower rank.

"The body of a powerful master: any weapon in your hands will strike faster than lightning." "The body of acc.u.mulation: it allows you to charge any element for three seconds to make a powerful blow." "The body of a magician: it replaces the vibrations of the energy released by you with another element. You can give your opponent an unpleasant surprise." "The body of a berserker: it significantly enhances the elements of pure energy and body for a while." "The body of an advanced fire bender: it enhances your element of fire." "The body of the usurper: it allows you to master easily the elements of wind and ether. In the future, both of these elements can be easily combined into the element of the storm." "The body of lapis lazuli: it allows you to release destructive azure light."

Kyon noticed that bodies could grant a variety of skills, sometimes at odds with logic, that is, beyond the nine elements. They could amplify, accelerate, deceit, conceal the owner or their energy, help master some sciences faster. There were bodies for alchemists, formacists, executioners, a h.e.l.l of a lot of unique bodies, each with its own unusual abilities. The guy's eyes sparkled with excitement. It seemed that unique bodies could give him anything he could think of. But their featured turned out to be pathetic and weak... Those two bodies of peak "C" rank are something but the rest, to be honest, is total c.r.a.p.

He wasn't going to build a foundation of wood. It wouldn't let him build a magnificent skysc.r.a.per later. No way. Kyon's heart was boiling from unfulfilled ambitions and deceived expectations. His inner perfectionist was ranting and raving.

According to his knowledge, a unique body of a "D" rank will not allow the pract.i.tioner to develop beyond the fifth phase, it's unreal to develop it beyond a certain stage.

The body of a "C" rank has a higher limit but it doesn't get any better. Even being the master of all the elements and the owner of Synergy, the guy was not going to build a foundation of low-quality materials. He will sooner or later reach his limit and envy those who can rise higher. All that gave him a brilliant idea to go deeper into the study of alchemy and create something special with necessary and useful features.

{Yeah... That's what I am going to do.} - Kyon made a decision but he worried about something... Alchemists create medicine by way of the elements: pure energy, water, earth, wind, ether, heat, cold, darkness, and light. The number of elements the alchemist can bend imposes restrictions on production, methods of production, and ways of purifying the medicine.

For example, you cannot create the Magma Grain without mastering the element of heat or the Northern Star without the element of cold.

The Magma Grain can be purified with the elements of light and water but if you do not know them, you have to be content with other elements (methods), thereby jeopardizing the final purity.

Now, it begs the question: why not take a group of alchemists who bend all the nine elements together? Indeed, in this way all types of medicine, all methods of purifying and production get available.

The answer isn't rea.s.suring. Each pract.i.tioner has their own individual frequency of elemental energy fluctuations, both in the soul and in the body. If the medicine is produced by more than one person, it will either explode or deteriorate. This is how heaven made the science of alchemy extraordinarily valuable. High-ranking alchemists wallow in money and fart through silk, living happily for the rest of their days.

{Pure energy, ether, darkness, light... Four elements are not enough for me to make some nifty medicine for a unique body. What do I do…?}

Another futile idea... But Laurel knew one thing for sure: he was going to lose himself in alchemy until he created a smart unique body.

It was about one o'clock in the morning.

Kyon heard someone sniffing behind him. The girl in the tight training outfit was sitting on the floor, leaning against the wall. Her head drooped, her knees bent: the spitting image of a stray kitten. Once again, she could not leave him alone in the treasury.

The guy approached the little angel with an insidious smile on his face. He was a little too carried away by her charm. Last time, he liked to take her to her chambers. He should do it again. But as soon as he touched the girl, she immediately opened her eyes and stood up quickly with a displeased frown.

«Master, I'd rather die than let you once again take me to my chambers. It's too humiliating.» - Juno murmured with a clear threat in her voice and turned towards her room.

Kyon snorted scornfully, grabbed her small hand, pulled her... And now she was in his arms, like a bride in the arms of a groom. He did not give a d.a.m.n about her opinion. If he wanted to carry her up, he would do it.

«Aaaaaaaaaaah! What are you doing?! Let me go right now!» – Juno screamed, struggling in his arms.

«Shut up. As your master, I am teaching you discipline. Never let anyone influence your emotional state or else you will lose.» – Kyon calmly lectured her, carrying the writhing bird in her nest.

«What the h.e.l.l are you talking about?!» – Juno turned red from embarra.s.sment and anger. – «You... That's not what you must teach me! Let me go immediately! Or else... I…» - The girl didn't even know how to threaten the vile servant who overstepped the boundaries. His touch on ​​her back and under her knees caused all her body tremble, he was so repulsive.

«Master, let me go! And I... I will show you a secret place! Very, very secret! Just let me go…»

Kyon unceremoniously dropped the girl on the floor.

«Tell me.»

Juno flopped her bottom on the hard floor, made a painful grimace and stood up angrily, rubbing her behind.

«The master should learn good manners! You are rude and uncouth and are not worthy of teaching me!»

«You are going to get it.» – Kyon threatened in a murderously calm tone of his voice, stepping toward her.

Juno stepped back and swallowed with fear.

«Follow me, master.» – And she briskly went somewhere only she knew.
