?905 Time To Finish This Trial

After I dragged Johanna inside, I presented her the smithy below and showed her the people down there too. She was a bit shocked there was this entire underground and secret temple for smithing, even more that it belonged to an ancient, now assumed dead god.
"Aw man, do I really need to smite stuff now?" She cried.
"Come on, it'll be fun!" I winked at her. "If you help a bit, you will get a blessing and gain new skills too. Being able to craft your own items and equipment will be extremely useful to you in the long run, trust me."
"I-I guess... Well, it better pay off!" She groaned. "So in what do I help?"
"Hammer and Ambil here will tell you in what you can add your assistance without any previous experience." I said, leaving it to the two of them.
"There'll be definitely some tension..." Said Nieve.
"It's a hard subject to talk about." Said Mark. "But I don't think it's in our power to solve that either. I remember that the King and the Queen said they would first find out if what Lord Magica said was the truth, right?"
"Yeah, that's what they said I believe." I nodded. "Well, let's concentrate on what's in front of us for now... First of all, we need to make three more Mythic Rank Items and one Legendary. I guess I'll try to make the Legendary One right away with everything I have. I'll use the remaining ingots from the items I sacrificed into the Smelting Synthesis Process as the base for this crazy piece of equipment... But I won't make it a weapon nor a piece of armor. I'll make it an accessory, which has higher chances of having high quality if I mix it with my Alchemy Skills."
"Ooh, good idea. But what sort of accessory will you make then?" Mark wondered.
"I discovered a new Cultivation Setting in the System interface after I drank the Ki Potions." I explained. "But I lack quite a lot of Ki. My existence as a giant tree makes it so I possess mostly a lot of Mana and Spirit Energy, but my Ki is slow and rather weak. Despite being considered such a huge lifeform, it seems like plant life forms are much slower on the production of this energy."
"Oh, I see... Wait, there's a Cultivation Function? Maybe I should also drink those potions now..." Mark wondered. "And you said there's a slower production of that energy, I guess it might affect me as well. Maybe it has to do with metabolism?"
"Metabolism?" I asked.
"Yes, to sum it up, it is the chemical processes that occur within a living organism in order to maintain life. Plants are much slower in this chemical process, but active beings such as animals, have much faster metabolisms. The speed in which their life moves, the burning flame of their existence. I suppose this might be a big factor on how the Ki within themselves is produced, born from the energy of the body." He explained.
"That's right! I guess I didn't consider that... Ah, but it still doesn't change much." I sighed. "Well, anyways, I'm planning on designing a super amazing accessory that'll help me gain Ki faster, and that could give me a nice bonus to the Stat, and... Perhaps to also somehow transform Mana and Spiritual Energy into Ki? If that's even possible within an item."
