And its trigger method is even more overbearing.
Once the sharp feathers on the outer side of the forearm cause a cut and touch the blood, one will be forcibly transformed into a Crow-man.
A disagreement could change your race.
This curse is deeply ingrained, seemingly enforced "voluntarily," and even Lin Suo, who possesses the Demon Spirit Shark, cannot assert absolute resistance and devour it.
Meeting the conditions equates to "voluntary," and once happened, it is nearly irreversible.
Its nature is similar to a contract.
Just that... it’s a demon’s contract.
The Crow-man dissection experiment goes very smoothly, Lin Suo also remembers the blood vessels inside the Silver Sword.
Unfortunately, these are formed spontaneously according to the individual.
Everyone’s is different.
By recording them, Lin Suo, apart from meticulous experimentation, also wants to obtain more Crow-man bodies to identify a universally applicable technique through diverse blood vessels.
From custom to mass production.
This is the true outcome of a Wizard researching thoroughly a skill.
It can bring varying degrees of strength increase to all Wizards, achieving an overall upward momentum.
This is actually one of the prerequisites for Wizards to defeat the gods.
The Crow-man was dissected by him.
Unsurprisingly, died in unconsciousness.
The Silver Sword became a new addition to Lin Suo’s collection; this month has been quite fruitful, Lin Suo, inspired, started to upgrade his beginner set of three witchcraft tools.
Both the Bee Swarm and Thunder Snake also need further refinements; his basic witchcraft tools division in alchemy has reached Red Grade, Lin Suo mastered the micro-engraving technique self-taught.
He begins studying advanced Witchcraft Tools Study knowledge.
Henceforth, the shrinking spell on firearms was erased and replaced with another type of power-enhancing Witchcraft Array.
Many Apprentice Level witchcraft also need to be upgraded.
Being a Second Ring Wizard now, Lin Suo revisits Apprentice Level witchcraft proficiency with ease.
In the "Late Bell Wizard Unified Sect Inheritance," he chose to integrate into Heart Seal.
Mud Stone Transformation integrates with two Apprentice Witchcraft, and .
Purifying Evil, which Lin Suo rarely utilized as Demon Spirit Shark can devour Curse Power, has minimal practical use.
Still, to be on the safe side, he decides to merge and upgrade, as sometimes the Demon Spirit Shark is not omnipotent.
Chooses to integrate , , and , three purification Apprentice Witchcrafts.
Moon Blade Leopard Contract Skill, just refine the bloodline of the Moon Blade Leopard; unfortunately, Lin Suo has yet to find suitable bloodline materials, using it only as a temporary tool.
Without synthesis value.
Strong Repulsion Field also unnecessary, Lin Suo has its superior witchcraft , a Second Ring Witchcraft, which he never had time to perfect in proficiency.
Magic Hand then, has other plans.
Laying out his tasks, Lin Suo continues in closed-door cultivation.
Food in his Space Belt enough to last him three years.
Rarely encountering such an upgrading hotspot like the Crow Court, he was in no rush to leave.
Devouring session a month ago.
Demon Spirit Shark has breached the ten-meter body size bottleneck, reaching eleven meters, feedback to Lin Suo’s strength, his Second Ring Wizard Rank progress climbed about 100.
Isn’t this much faster than meditating and cultivating?
Another long two months just ended.
It is now three months since he set sail, the beginning of the fourth month, also the 3rd year of Lin Suo’s landing, August 14.
Nameless Deserted Island.
Lin Suo quickly clears the soil, appearing on the island’s surface.
Information panel unfolds.

Unknowingly, another year has passed.
In contrast to prior performances, witchcrafts advanced from Apprentice Level to First Rank now start at Red Grade.
This is due to the grade of both merging ingredients reaching red, unlike his previously synthesized breathing and meditation techniques
which were innovations limited by their own grades.
Although these witchcrafts are merely ordinary First Rank, their effects are robustly comprehensive.
Taking Power of Earth as an example,
synthesized from Mud Stone Transformation, now not only stones and soil but also sand, ores, and underground anomalies are within its influence.
Even those which cannot be transformed in terms of material, can be uniformly repelled, without the need to detour.
This is the active effect.
There’s also a passive.
Standing upon the ground, one can receive a continuous, gentle supplement of Magic Power to replenish consumption though the current effect is weak, after integrating more Earth Witchcraft in the future, it holds potential.
Especially worth noting, the synthesized witchcrafts are all personally named by Lin Suo, his unique witchcrafts.
Beyond advancements in witchcraft.
There’s also equipment.
Earth Robe, lacking soul type materials, can only integrate an external vein system for upgrades.
If the vein system on the Crow-man Silver Sword is a complex map of lines,
the vein system crafted by Lin Suo only has three.
Forming a symbol type,
confirmed as one of the universal vein systems.
Mainly strengthens the connection between Earth Robe and Lin Suo, making both more concealed, barely advancing to Second Level Magic Tools, albeit the weakest kind.
But it’s still upgradable.
The Witch Wand, moving beyond the novice wand label, guided by Lin Suo into Nature Wand, deploying veins similarly to the Earth Robe, not greatly boosting amplification, mainly to deepen the bond between the main body and object.
It’s the same with the Flying Magic Carpet.
All promoted to the shabbiest Second Level Magic Tools, ready to experience profound transformation upon the integration of corresponding Second Level materials.
The only exception is firearms.
After erasing the Shrinking Spell, Lin Suo proceeded in two steps without rest.
Bee Swarm evolved into a Gatling style, Thunder Snake into a sniper rifle.
Lin Suo doesn’t fully understand the principles of the two types of firearms.
Only able to remodel based on his experience making handguns, substituting numerous mechanical components with witchcraft techniques.
And thus assembling these magical tools.
With a simple vein connecting all components, making it a unit, accumulating experience for future crafting of "signature" Magic Tools.
Properly utilized thereafter, both types of firearms finally took shape.
Perfectly fitting, resizing the bullets synchronously after revoking the Shrinking Spell.
This vein system, termed by Lin Suo as [Magic Rune Study], is inevitably fundamental for his future security and establishment!
The value is immeasurable.
Lin Suo, elevating external objects and intrinsic qualities to the limit, transformed through the Shape Shifting Technique into a three-meter-tall Crow-man with wings, clad in Black Armor and wielding a Silver Sword.
Concurrently, the Demon Spirit Shark embodies, mimicking the aura of Dark Curse Power, spreads his wings heading towards Crow Court.
He is infiltrating the enemy from within!
