Chapter 581 Spirit
After three minutes of concentration, Vale finally got the result he wanted.
[ Energy Source has been discovered. Would you like to start the Extraction? ]
'Energy Source? Interesting... It didn't recognize the Formation Circle as an Arcane Art but as a source of energy?' Vale mused as he didn't expect this notification to appear.
Nevertheless, it made a lot of sense since his Divine Extraction Energy was not an Appraisal Tool. It only recognizes 'extractable' targets. From the system's perspective, perhaps this complex Trap Formation was nothing more than a huge gathering of Arcane Energy.
Without any more hesitation, Vale started with his Extraction.
[ Extraction Successful. Energy +1120
Fiend Essence +1000
Vampire Essence +1000
Elf Essence +1000 ]

"Incredible... Isn't this a bit too much?" Vale muttered as he saw the results of his Extraction. He was getting thousands of them at once!
This was such an incredible experience.
'I guess this Trap Formation had other creatures it could materialize aside from the Blood Specters.'
Vale concluded after seeing some essence of the Vampire and Elf. Perhaps, once they eliminated the Blood Specters, the Trap Formation would summon other creatures like Vampire and Elf to deal with them.

On the other hand, as Vale continued with the Extraction of the Trap Formation, Magnus focused on preparing his Slave Contract Talisman.
"Go on... Waste your energy." He muttered.
It was impeded by the Trap Formation Art itself!
"What? Isn't that cheating? He can attack us from the outside, but we can't do the same?" Pearl muttered as she realized the other effect of the Formation Art.
This continued several times as Magnus started casting a few more Petrification Spells while Pearl and Faith would defend against it.
'Is he planning to waste our energy through this action?'
"Vale... Are you not finished yet?" Pearl suddenly asked as Magnus persistently launched successive attempts to trap them in petrification.
"I'm almost done... The Formation Art will collapse soon. Please deal with that old Arcanist once it's broken." Vale replied.
"Very well... I'll take care of that old man!" Pearl said as she was already annoyed by the fact that she couldn't kill the Blood Specters. Although she didn't mind holding them in her Spiritual Domain, she
She was itching for a real battle!

In the alchemy laboratory nestled within the labyrinthine corridors of the Magnus' Castle, an atmosphere of mystery and innovation permeated the air.
The room was adorned with an array of shelves, each meticulously laden with glass jars containing a menagerie of preserved specimens—ethereal creatures suspended in amber liquids, arcane botanical specimens, and anatomical curiosities, all bathed in a soft, eerie glow that lent an otherworldly aura to the laboratory.
Within this captivating environment, Lisa and Chad engaged in their alchemical pursuits, immersed in the art of potioncraft and the enigmatic machinations of their experiments.
Well, if they weren't afraid of dying, they wouldn't be this focused on their tasks.
Boom!
The ground suddenly started shaking, and the ceiling started making some noise. They couldn't help but feel worried that the walls would collapse on them.
"Lisa... Is the castle being attacked?" Chad asked as he stopped what he was doing. He was ready to escape from the laboratory.
"It could be... But I think Sir Magnus might be doing an experiment in the third laboratory... You know that he's handing explosive items there." Lisa said with a helpless smile.
She was making a potion using moonflower extract and starlight essence. It's known to enhance perception and mystical energy attunement. It's a delicate process, but the results can be quite extraordinary.
It had a very complicated brewing process, and now that she missed the timing, she had to restart once again.
However, as she was thinking of continuing with her experiment, a beautiful Dark Spirit appeared before them.
The female Dark Spirit had a mesmerizing presence, with flowing ebony hair that seemed to dance around her like wisps of smoke. Her eyes glowed with an otherworldly light, and her elegant, ethereal form exuded an aura of mystery and power.
Lisa's eyes lit up after seeing her...
"Are you Vale's Dark Spirit?!"
