Lord of Mysteries: Taiyi

After Kurt finished explaining his abilities, Marcus stopped taking notes with his pen.

"What exactly is the form of this finishing touch?" Melanie asked curiously after her students finished their work.

Kurt shook his head and half-lieed:

"I'm not sure either, I haven't copied any extraordinary qualities yet."

Upon hearing this, Marcus and Melanie naturally suggested that Kurt imitate the extraordinary qualities, which Kurt readily agreed to. This is the advantage of having an organization behind you…

Of course, most of the abilities of "God-given" overlap with Melanie's... but this can save a lot of blood consumption.

Then Melanie and Marcus demonstrated almost all of their abilities... based on Kurt's existing knowledge, they held nothing back!

With the addition of Melanie and Marcus's two extraordinary items, he realized that the golden apple Melanie wore on her chest was an extraordinary item from the Solar Realm! Now Kurt couldn't help but wonder if Melanie had masochistic tendencies... He'd find an opportunity to ask her about it later, Kurt thought to himself.

Marcus's item, however, was an extraordinary item from the Sailor's Passage, likely only at Sequence Six...

Kurt acquired over ten extraordinary properties. In fact, a typical "painter" can only store a maximum of 8 to 14, but Kurt's uniqueness eliminates this upper limit, and his copying success rate skyrockets. His ability to copy Sequence 5 abilities can basically maintain a 90% success rate, which is extremely overpowered.

Of course, Kurt wouldn't bring this up himself. Leaving aside when the church would actually be able to train a "painter," even if they discovered something was amiss later, it would be a special case of those favored by God, and wouldn't affect Kurt much...

Unfortunately, these "properties" cannot be used directly, otherwise it would be an enhanced version of the "Recorder". However, it is reasonable to guess that the subsequent sequence will likely have abilities similar to the Recorder or the Mystic Mentor! This is undoubtedly very useful and powerful.

After finishing the drawing, Kurt began to demonstrate his abilities. He took out a bottle he had prepared beforehand, which contained some water that had no effect whatsoever.

Kurt directly imbued the liquids with the "corruption" properties obtained from the "Corruption Claw" that Melanie had shown.

The liquid instantly emitted black steam, and within seconds it completely melted and corroded the glass bottle, causing it to fall to the ground and slowly corrode the floor tiles, emitting a hissing sound.

Kurt withdrew the spiritual energy, and the liquid instantly returned to ordinary drinking water...

It is worth mentioning that Kurt can imbue these items with the properties of the Eye of Möbius, allowing them to absorb and store spirituality on their own, achieving a "perpetual motion" effect and ensuring that the eye-opening is always effective.

Thinking of this, Kurt spoke up:

"The eye-dotting ceremony can only last for about 10 minutes, after which sufficient spiritual energy must be provided to sustain it."

Then Kurt began to demonstrate the extraordinary ability of "repair." Kurt did not repair the bottle that had been corroded with a large hole, because that involved supernatural factors. Only repairs enhanced by Kurt's source essence would be effective. Since it was a demonstration for the officials, he explained the nature of the repair while taking out a new bottle and smashing it.

Then he activated his ability, and the glass shards and water on the ground automatically coalesced and flew back into Kurt's hand, just like a movie being played in reverse... Unfortunately, this can't be used on living things, at least not for now.

Then Kurt tried to imbue the bottle with the properties he had gained from "Transforming into a Giant Bear." The bottle immediately began to twist, and to everyone's astonishment, crimson flesh began to emerge from the twisted gaps in the bottle, constantly rolling and churning. Finally, the entire bottle was enveloped by a fleshy tumor, and brown hair grew out of the tumor, turning it into a slowly bouncing hairball, which was extremely disgusting.

Kurt frowned slightly. It seemed that the "Drawing Eyes" technique couldn't yet imbue the item with complete life; it could only conjure a pile of flesh and blood out of thin air... He shook his head, indicating:

"Obviously, this won't turn the bottle into a giant bear."

After the power was canceled, the glass bottle shattered on the ground, never to be restored. If this were used on sentient beings, would it have the same effect? ​​I'll go back and try it on some potatoes first.

Thinking about this, Kurt suddenly realized that the extraordinary ability of "divine gift" to make different potions was very similar to "eye-dotting"... He had always suspected where these medicinal properties came from, since he lacked materials when making them. He had always thought that the apothecary had used the extraordinary power of the cultivator's path... Now, considering that the Mother Goddess seemed to be watching him all along, it was very likely that it was a three-in-one extraordinary item!

Then, Kurt used the finishing touch effect to dye the pure water with different colors, turning it into "pigment." He then used the Substitution Jutsu, consuming the pigment, and his entire body transformed into pigment, exploding and reappearing not far away.

Self-production and self-consumption, there are still synergies between skills. Although this consumes more spiritual energy than preparing the paint in advance, it's not a problem for Kurt at all...

With his greatly enhanced physical attributes, Kurt can possess considerable combat power even without relying on "divine gifts," especially when someone specifically demonstrates extraordinary skills to him. At that time, even the air can become a deadly weapon, making it impossible to defend against.

After seeing the specific expression in Kuttel's eyes, Melanie and the others' eyes all underwent subtle changes.

Kurt is currently in a similar situation to Klein in the book when he first advanced to Sequence Six, lacking strong offensive capabilities... Of course, if he had the "divine blessing," his strength and physical resilience would probably be comparable to that of a zombie...

Then, Melanie called Utravsky in… Kurt also obtained several more properties related to “Dawn”…

A single extraordinary ability can typically be broken down into one or two extraordinary properties. Therefore, a fully equipped "painter" can generally only depict about 8 to 9 properties of an ability, and can only use it on objects without sentience. Furthermore, it requires a constant supply of spiritual energy and isn't particularly powerful. However, Kurt is different. With his enhanced control over source matter and uniqueness, he can almost directly depict any extraordinary ability he encounters…

However, the price he pays is that he will need a lot of humanity to resist the negative effects of the potion when he reaches Sequence Seven. Subsequent advancements will definitely be more dangerous. Kurt even prays that a ritual can be provided for his advancement to Sequence Six, or that he can create one himself. Although it's troublesome, it's safer. If he doesn't have enough humanity, Kurt might become an emotionless machine...

As expected, accepting the gifts of fate comes with a price; this is the underlying logic of the mysterious world. Coupled with the Mother Goddess's oracle, Kurt already sensed that his "good days" were numbered.

After fully stabilizing and becoming familiar with his new abilities, Marcus gave Kurt a list of sealed artifacts that Kurt had previously requested to see, which could be rewarded to his followers.

These things cannot appear in the telegram, and the Harvest Church does not have the authority to store them... so they can only be transmitted in such an inefficient way.

Kurt took the list of sealed items made of special parchment and looked at it... He found that there were dozens of options to choose from.
