Wizard: I Can Refine Everything

Richard's words undoubtedly declared that this battle could not end peacefully.

As an Elemental Monarch, Black Rock naturally couldn't surrender without a fight.

A gray-yellow domain spread from him as the center, and everything it touched turned into Earth Elements.

Within this domain, countless elemental creatures emerged from the rocks and launched a desperate charge at Richard.

Although elemental creatures do not have the Illusionary Dimension, when they reach the Dominator stage, they automatically gain an ability—expanding territory.

The Wizards named these elemental Dominators as Monarchs for a reason.

All these Dominator-level elemental creatures have the ability to transform everything around them into the Elemental Territory. This ability corresponds to the Dominator's Illusionary Dimension but is even more practical.

Because the ability to expand territory does not consume Dimension Power and doesn't even require energy.

The Elemental Monarch just needs to stand there, and the surrounding space will automatically transform into the Elemental Territory.

"So, this is territory expansion, something even the Abyss can't erode. It's truly an unreasonable ability."

Richard observed the land around Black Rock transforming into the Elemental Territory and made a comment with interest.

Those Earth Elemental creatures, each as formidable as a World Master, did not cause a single ripple in his heart.

In the next moment, the Miracle Dimension expanded.

Within the Miracle Dimension, countless Abyss Titans emerged.

Dimension Power mimicry is not something that can mimic just anything; the creatures being mimicked must have a deep connection with the Dominator.

Like how Richard can mimic Titans, mimic Wizards, or even mimic Galaxy Mayflies, but he could never mimic elemental creatures.

Soldiers face soldiers, generals face generals.

At the moment of the soldiers' collision, the two Dominators began their battle.

Black Rock suddenly swung his fist, carrying with it a mighty force field as it moved. Even though the space had been reinforced by three Guardians, cracks still appeared at this moment.

The force field was the Gravity Rule and also the Gravitational Rule.

Earth Elemental creatures excel at physical attacks because they are the masters of gravity.

BOOM!

Accompanied by a thunderous crash.

The space in front of Richard shattered abruptly, and the frenzied force field instantly tore apart all the spatial structures around him.

Richard surprisingly didn't defend and took the hit directly.

A bizarre laugh echoed from behind the shattered space.

"Keh keh keh, not a bad punch, perfect for a massage."

As the space healed, Richard stood in place, motionless.

On him, the dark Shan Hai carried a deep and mysterious aura, like an invisible mouth capable of swallowing everything in this world.

Without a doubt, the reason Richard didn't react at all was because of Shan Hai.

"Able to withstand an attack of five hundred million energy level, not bad."

The Pure Ether Liquid Crystal is not known for being a defensive material, and being able to withstand such a powerful impact was mostly due to the Abyss Curse inscribed on Shan Hai.

"Next, let's test the attack enchantment."

Richard grasped both ends of Shan Hai with his two arms, grinned sinisterly at the somewhat bewildered Black Rock.

In the next moment, chains flew out, and the pitch-black chains lashed at Black Rock like a rampaging dragon, shattering element crystals scattered everywhere, marking an unprecedented elemental crystal rain upon the Abyss World's ground.

The strike's impact left Black Rock's entire mind in chaos.

Shan Hai's attack wasn't just physical. Along these chains, he attached a Thirteen Rings Soul Shock.

This witchcraft was something he had exchanged from the Soul Crown over the past two years, with quite remarkable effects.

At this moment, Black Rock felt as if "darkness" enveloped his vision, and the whole world became blurred and indistinct.

Before he could regain his senses, a new wave of Soul Shock followed in quick succession.

BAM!

Another lash left another scar on Black Rock's body.

However, compared to the previous strike, this one didn't create an elemental crystal rain—because this lash was imbued with the Great Fragmentation Skill.

The Great Fragmentation Skill is not restricted to the material of the Material World; it can be applied to elements as well.

Pure elemental crystals of different structures must disintegrate into free elements under the Great Fragmentation Skill.

BAM!

Another lash.

Richard at this moment seemed like a slave master on a farm, his pitch-black chains in hand like a whip, constantly striking Black Rock.

Throughout the process, Black Rock had almost no strength to retaliate.

As a Native Dominator, compared to Richard, a Dominator of a top-level civilization, his combat power couldn't stir up any waves.

Just as Richard was getting into the swing of things, a voice suddenly popped up by his ear.

"Yo, Lord Richard, you're still interested in this?"

Richard turned to see a Teleportation Gate appear behind him, and the corpulent Beelzebub waddled out from it.

"Why are you here?" Richard asked casually.

"Nothing much, just your commotion caused quite a stir, so I came to check out the fun."

Beelzebub curiously examined Black Rock, and a thick tongue extended a blob of red slime from its belly's large mouth.

"Lord, do you plan to use this thing for materials, or do you have other intentions?"

Richard noticed the mucus in his hand, his eyebrows slightly raised.

"Do you want to experiment with it?"

"Haha, this is a little thing I researched before." Beelzebub patted his belly, a trace of evil glint in his eyes, "This thing can turn elemental creatures into flesh, although I've only used it on Elemental Lords before, never on an Elemental Monarch."

"Turn into flesh?"

Richard's face showed a hint of surprise.

Beelzebub chuckled: "It's just a little trinket. If you don't mind, we can try it on this Elemental Monarch.

The lords infected by this virus developed a very special material on their bodies. Perhaps this Dominator can also produce some fine things."

"New material? Interesting."

Hearing this, Richard's face instantly revealed a smile of genuine intrigue.

He had just obtained a treasure trove from Beelzebub and was not lacking in rare materials at the moment. This Elemental Monarch, even if killed, would only yield a Heart of the Elemental King.

Although that thing is decent as alchemy material, it is of no great use to him.

Instead, it was the possible appearance of new materials that piqued his interest more.

"Try it. Share the results."

Beelzebub laughed heartily: "Richard, even though you are on the path of Physique Evolution, you still have a curiosity for Spiritual Evolution."

Saying this, the blob of red mucus was spat by the large mouth on his abdomen onto Black Rock.

As the mucus touched him, even though Black Rock's soul had been drawn by Richard to a state of daze, he still felt an immense threat.

His body shuddered violently, a layer of gray-yellow light spread from within, transforming everything it touched into Earth Elements.

However, the mucus only developed a layer of Earth Element shell without any further reaction.

Soon, the light dissipated.

More precisely, Black Rock was unable to maintain it.

Although Richard's Soul Shock was insufficient to shatter its soul, it rendered his consciousness muddled.

He was nearly like a lamb awaiting slaughter at this moment.

And the only difference between it and a lamb was probably its exceptionally strong Life Energy.

Without the obstruction of the light, the mucus began to expand wantonly on Black Rock.

At first, it spread like patches of moss on Black Rock, but as its expansion reached a certain point, changes occurred.

These mosses began to integrate into Black Rock's body, and all elemental crystals they absorbed took on a flesh-like texture.

Seeing this scene, even Richard couldn't help but widen his eyes.

This transformation was not recorded even in the Furnace Man's heritage, nor in the technologies of Titans and Supremes.

"What is that?" Richard couldn't help but ask.

Beelzebub's face showed a trace of pride. After so many years, he finally had something to showcase his masterpiece.

"I call it the Flesh Four Elements, a new Four Elements."

"New... Four Elements?"

Richard struggled to piece the words together, as everything before him slightly exceeded his understanding.

"Yes, new Four Elements."

Beelzebub rummaged within his stomach and then took out a piece of iron ingot, veined with blood vessels yet exhibiting evident metallic characteristics.

"These Four Elements can also synthesize matter, but these substances are 'alive.' They grow, react, behaving like some alien creatures, yet without a soul.

Once dead, they disintegrate and revert to ordinary matter."

Richard took the ingot with energy, a hint of shock flashed in his eyes.

This thing differs from traditional Abyss Erosion in that Abyss Erosion-induced fleshification quickly reverts once detached from the nest.

Yet the iron ingot before him seemed like a simplistic life form.

He looked at Beelzebub and seriously asked, "Purely physical lifeform?"

Beelzebub nodded: "Purely physical lifeform."

Richard gasped, not anticipating such a creature, theoretically only existing in books, could actually appear.

"Remarkable, Beelzebub. Your research is remarkable," Richard sincerely praised.

Unlike ordinary creatures, purely physical beings lack the crucial soul component, meaning these creatures cannot precisely maneuver magic power through spiritual power nor can they directly observe rules.

However, at the same time, these creatures are immune to any soul-targeted methods.

Whether Soul Shock or Soul Storm is less useful than directly hitting its head with a club.

This special type of life form holds significant value both in research and practical application.

Richard again looked at Black Rock. Under the erosion of the flesh virus, this Elemental Monarch had turned into a man of flesh.

However, Richard noted that this erosion was not profound. The Elemental Monarch's own recovery ability allowed the flesh virus to only erode the surface.

Once penetrating deeper, the eroded parts are pushed out like dead skin cells by pure elements.

Watching this, an evil idea flashed through Richard's mind.

"Beelzebub, can you do sealing?"

Beelzebub was stunned upon hearing this, then immediately understood Richard's intention.

"Heh heh, I'm quite familiar with sealing."

Since an Elemental Monarch could regenerate endlessly, sealing its soul would mean that Richard and his team would essentially own an infinitely regenerating flesh element mine.

This is much more useful than a Heart of the Earth Elemental Monarch.
