Description	Wicked artifact from another realm. Using the remaining evilness left by ascended immortal as the catalyst, the essence of Gnarled Vine's power is condensed onto a Demon Wolf's Fang. Nurture it with your own essence to make it spiritual. This artifact is extremely thin and sensitive when being used in battle. Once triggered, it will split into 9 apparitions to attack the enemy. It is a vicious weapon. (Once equipped, right click to feed essence to it)
Source	Blood of Asura Fragment

Sirius Spike is a Legacy Artifact which attacks enemies with a large number of mirror artifacts.

Obtainment

Learn the Blood of Asura Fragment manual (obtained from Second Golden Casket or a random drop from Ancient Cultivators), and craft it with an Artifact Crafting Skill Level of at least 20 to obtain the Incubation item.

Right click to feed the artifact with essence 18 times to receive the legacy artifact, which can then be claimed, locking the item to that cultivator. Each feeding causes a random injury. To avoid unnecessary damage, this can be done on a Physical Cultivator before giving the completed artifact to the cultivator of choice.

Uses

The artifact has a relatively low base damage compared to other artifacts, however it compensates by duplicating itself repeatedly after hitting enemies.

Every 3 hits from the main artifact, 9 additional sword-sprites are created, each of which lasts for 3 seconds. This can overwhelm enemy artifacts and result in most attacks hitting the body instead, increasing effective damage as body attacks do not drain Qi from the artifact.
