"Here they are," the staff member said as he pointed at a showcase that had five rings disyed in it.
Each ring was made from the same dark-silver material and had a radius of 50-centimeters. The only difference between them was the patterns carved on the rings.
The first ring had red me-like patterns, the second ring had light-blue wavy patterns, the third ring had brown rock-like patterns, the fourth ring had light-green windy patterns, and the fifth ring had dark-blue lightning patterns.

"If you can manipte these five rings, then you can do a lot of things with them," the staff member said with a smile.
"Wait," Aren spoke as he nced at the price tag and wryly smiled, "I can''t afford them."
The price of the total set was 30,000 gold coins.
"If you have these rings in gold-tier, then I will buy them," Aren said.
"Unfortunately, these rings need special materials because of how these rings are used, and these materials are quite valuable, so it''s impossible to find this set of rings in gold-tier," said the staff member while shaking his head.
"However, because you can manipte things despite still being in the Mortal lifeform, I can guarantee that these rings will make your life easier," the staff member remarked, patting his chest with a smile. "Let me show you how to use them first. If you like them, you can save and collect more gold coins before purchasing this set of rings rather than wasting gold coins on gold-tier gears."
Aren was curious about their uses, so he nodded, "alright."
...
The staff member took the set of rings to the training ground and called one of his colleagues, who turned out to be an elf woman.
"She will be showing you their uses since I can''t manipte things without touching them," the staff member said with a wry smile, "only people at the Epic lifeform stage can do that."
The elven staff member waved her hand as the five rings floated around her.
"You must know about their basic stats by looking at them, right?" the elven woman asked as she looked at Aren.
"Yes," Aren nodded as he could the ring''s stats.
"I will show you thebination attacks that can be made through the rings one by one," the elven woman said as she manipted the rings.
First, she released a fireball from the [Ring of Fire] by consuming her spirit energy. Right after that, a swirling wind orb was released from the [Ring of Wind], which hit the fireball going towards the dummy.
When the swirling wind orb hit the fireball, the fireball suddenly powered up and became bigger and more potent as it hit the dummy, causing a st to ur.
"Next is the [Ring of Fire] plus [Ring of Water]," the elven woman said as she released a fireball and then hit it with a water bubble from the [Ring of Water].
*Siiiiiiiii....*
Instantly, boiling energy got conjured from the mix of fireball and water bubble that was searing hot and even melted the dummy''s structure a bit.
"Thisbination can be used to lower the enemy''s defenses as well upon damaging them," the elven woman said.
Afterward, the elven womanbined a fireball from the [Ring of Fire] with a lightning bolt from the [Ring of Lightning], causing a smic orb to form that dealt destructive damage to the dummy.
"This is the most powerfulbination. You can do quick and devastating damage with this," the elven woman said.
Afterward, she manipted [Ring of Fire] and [Ring of Earth] before sticking them together, "for this, you will have to join these two rings together and infuse your spirit energy in them simultaneously to attack."
Aren saw a trail of zingva released from the joined rings as it hit the metal dummy and superheated it before slowly melting it.
"If you continue to pour your spirit energy like this, theva trail will continuously release from these joined rings," said the elven woman said before she separated the rings.
Aren was a bit fascinated by thebination usage of the rings even though he had guessed about it when reading the status of the rings.
"You can adjust the potency of the energy released from the rings and change thebination form. For example, if you release a water bubble filled with more water energy and then hit it with a fireball from the ring of fire, it will instead create mist that can obscure the vision of your opponent. You can create a misty area," the elven woman said with a smile.
"Interesting," Aren said as he looked at the five rings floating beside the elven woman.

The elven woman showed all thebinations to Aren one by one. After finishing, she put the rings back into the showcase.
"These rings are currently under my ownership since they are branded with my blood. However, if you want to buy it, I can remove my blood brand, and you can add yours by dropping a drop of your blood on each of the rings," the elven woman said to Aren.
"Ahem, I only wanted this gentleman to show the uses of the rings. He won''t be buying the rings right now," the staff member said with a wry smile.
Hearing that, the elven woman nced at the man before she nodded inly and left. One could see slight annoyance and disdain on the woman''s face as she left.
"As you can see, the rings are very useful and can be used ording to the situation. Their damage is great, but it''s even higher with variousbinations," said the staff member with a polite smile.
"These rings provide the user ten default elemental mastery of these five elements once you brand the rings with your soul, which can let you manipte the output of those elemental energies from the rings. However, if you have an affinity for these elements....hehe, then you can do a lot of things with these rings," the staff member said with a light chuckle.
