I ascend to the throne of God with arcane magic.

Chapter 793 New Plan
Aurelion was dumbfounded; he felt his spells being completely dissolved and dissipated by a strange magical force.

Faced with this change, he had absolutely no chance to resist.

However, he quickly reacted.

He had experienced similar situations before.

That was when I first met the Third Speaker, Tarindra, after becoming the leader of the [Star Ring] school.

It was at that time that Aurelion realized the special relationship between the Star Ring School and this Third Chancellor.

The foundation of the [Star Ring] school is quite different from other schools, as it is entirely based on the rather obscure magic of stars.

However, relying on astral magic, the [Ring of Stars] has become the second most powerful magic system in the Pan-Continental Mage Association, second only to the three top schools, which is enough to demonstrate the power of astral magic.

Star magic differs from other spells in that it can achieve various unique spell effects by constructing different celestial bodies.

For this reason, the power of star spells is not very strong at low levels.

However, as the rank increases, the power of the star spells becomes increasingly terrifying.

For example, during the fight between Aurelion and Li Si just now, the special environment he created was enough to interfere with Li Si's perception, who was also a legendary mage.

At the same time, meteors carrying different power attributes will also attack Li Si from all sides.

This is practically an attack with no blind spots!

But Aurelion did not expect that his attack would be so easily neutralized by Li Si.

The last time this happened was when Lady Tarindra was in power.

That time, Tarindra told him that as the leader of the Star Ring, he had a chance to learn astral magic from her.

It was on that occasion that Tarindra demonstrated the power of astral magic to him.

Because Aurelion's astral magic is actually a simplified version of astral magic.

Because obtaining astral power was extremely difficult, Tarindra developed a spell that simulated astral power through magic while exploring the properties of stellar power.

This is the Star Magic.

The reason why celestial magic can simulate so many special effects is that it is derived from astral magic.

However, this also led to the absolute suppression of celestial magic by astral magic.

When facing the power of the stars, astral magic is like a son meeting his father—it has absolutely no chance of resistance.

Therefore, after witnessing the power of astral magic, Aurelion greatly desired to master this powerful force.

Unfortunately, despite the Third Chancellor Taryndra's diligent guidance, Aurelion was ultimately unable to master this special power.

This is also Aurelion's greatest regret.

However, Tarindra comforted him, saying that since she created astral magic, no one has been able to master it.

This is also why the Third Speaker went to great lengths to recreate the Star Magic.

Aurelion used this as a way to console himself.

However, this can never change the deep regret in Aurelien's heart.

But now, Aurelion has discovered that Li Si has also successfully mastered astral magic!

Aurelion would never forget that unique, dark power, a strange force that seemed endless and capable of generating countless powers.

Recalling Li Si's previous visit to the Third Councilor, Lady Tarindra, one can easily imagine how he mastered astral magic.

Looking at the dark power in Li Si's hand, Aurelion had no intention of continuing the fight.

Her most powerful ability was completely countered by Li Si, and her other methods certainly couldn't compare to Li Si, who possessed the title of "Ruler of All Things".

Just as astral magic completely suppresses celestial magic, no matter how powerful Aurelion's own magic is, he will not be a match for Li Si.

A second person wielding astral magic has actually appeared?!
Aurelion was filled with regret.

Li Si's mastery of astral magic made Aurelion realize a somewhat cruel truth.

That means that, apart from its creator Tarindra, no one else can actually learn astral magic.

What Aurelion regretted even more at the time was that he was not the one who successfully mastered astral magic.

"Not continuing?"

Li Si looked at Aurelion, who had landed in front of him, and asked with a smile.

"You've already used astral magic, what more do you want!"

Aurelion looked at Li Si with some dissatisfaction and sighed.

"Haha, isn't it because I'm under too much pressure from your magic?"

Li Si said with a smile, then dissipated the chaotic power in his hand.

Just as Tarindra had pointed out, the power of chaos has a very strong suppressive effect on certain special spells such as stellar magic.

This also shows that the Third Speaker, Tarindra, has a very close relationship with the [Star Ring].

This also made Li Si even more curious about higher-level astral magic.

"When did you master astral magic?"

Aurelion glanced at the dissipating "Astral Power" in Li Si's hand and asked with some envy.

"Ah, you learned it when the Third Speaker taught me?"

Upon hearing this, Li Si smiled and said...

"."

To be honest, Aurelion really wanted to punch Li Si when he saw the smile on his face.

I'll beat you to death, you pretentious brat!

However, considering the close-combat skills that Li Si had demonstrated to him, which were no less than those of a legendary warrior, Aurelion still let it go without hesitation.

"Okay, no kidding."

Li Si stopped joking with Aurelion.

Aurelion's strength is undoubtedly considerable, and the previous battle did put Li Si under considerable pressure.

The special environment he created was so difficult that even Li Si's spatial magic couldn't solve it; he could only confront it head-on.

Aside from that, perhaps only by utilizing the abilities of other professions can one be confident of defeating Aurelion.

This is enough to demonstrate Aurelion's power as the leader of the Star Ring.

However, while Aurelion posed a significant threat to Li Si, it was ultimately not that serious.

Aurelion must have used his full strength.

This can be confirmed by the data on Aurelion's magical fluctuations that Li Si obtained from monitoring the floating city of Kane.

Aurelion's strength already places him among the most powerful group of people in the Pan-Continental Mage Association.

This is not a reduction in the size of the Pancontinental Mage Association, but rather a limitation imposed by the mage profession.

There are only two ways for mages to break through to the level of demigod or even god.

Alternatively, one can continuously explore the power of rules and constantly push one's own limits.
Alternatively, one can abandon the path of an arcane sorcerer and embark on the path of faith and deification.
The first method is simply too difficult!
Over the countless years, only three people have succeeded.

Those were the three chairpersons of the Pan-Continental Mage Association.

This is why the three speakers are respected by all members of the association, and even by legendary members of parliament.

The second path is also the one most legendary mages choose.

However, taking that path would essentially violate the Pan-Continental Mage Association's mission of exploring world rules. While it wouldn't necessarily lead to a complete falling out with the Pan-Continental Mage Association, it would result in losing the status of a legendary councilor and leaving the council while retaining membership in the association.

After all, within the territory of the Pan-Continental Mage Association, mages are not allowed to cultivate followers or collect faith.

This unique situation has resulted in a significant gap between the top-tier and legendary combat power of the Pan-Continental Mage Association.

Just like the first path, the three speakers who successfully broke through were extremely powerful, far surpassing ordinary demigods.

It is even considered by many extraordinary forces to possess strength comparable to that of gods.

However, the other legendary councilors of the association, while equally powerful, are generally weaker than demigods.

Therefore, this also made Li Si realize his own strength.

At least within the Pan-Continental Mage Association, he has the ability to command respect from others in terms of sheer strength.

"If you'd like, Aurelion, I can share some insights with you."

Li Si looked at Aurelion and spoke slowly.

"?!"

Aurelion glanced at Li Si with some surprise, then quickly calmed down.

"What do you want me to do for you?"

"Is the reason you revealed your mastery of astral magic to me for this purpose as well?"

"Haha, it's nothing."

Li Si said with a smile.

Although that was indeed his intention.

In fact, because of the Third Chancellor Taryndra, Aurelion had already subtly sided with him.

But this is not enough!

When Li Si saw the intelligence on the legendary senator who opposed him that day, he realized that the middle school faction in the association was indeed powerful.

It's not something he can shake in a short time.

If the mages trained by the Source of All Laws break through to become legends, the situation will be greatly alleviated.

Li Si was confident he could accomplish these things, but the problem was that he didn't have enough time to wait for the changes to happen.

Therefore, he needs to prepare a little in advance.

The Star Ring and Aurelion Sol are part of it.

Therefore, Li Si felt he needed to give Aurelion a reason that he couldn't refuse.

That's astral magic!
Aurelion, having mastered astral magic, should understand the power of celestial magic.

Li Si didn't believe that the other party could offer anything more compelling than astral magic to Aurelion.

Aurelion was indeed tempted.

In fact, he had not given up on the idea of ​​mastering astral magic.

After Taryndra taught him, although Aurelion failed to master astral magic, the Third Chancellor did not reclaim the relevant knowledge.

Aurelion still possesses knowledge of astral magic and occasionally takes it out to review.

Under these circumstances, Li Si was willing to pay such a price, which Aurelion could hardly tolerate.

It's done!

"Li Si, do you want us [Ring of Stars] to fully support [Source of All Laws]?"

"Not now."

"Aurelian, has anyone tried to win you over or inquire about me lately?"

Li Si asked Aurelion.

"No."

Aurelion shook his head and said with a smile:

Anyone who knows a little about us should know about the connection between us.

“They are unaware of the situation of Third Speaker Tarindra, but they wouldn’t be trying to win me over at this time, someone who has a close relationship with you.”

"That's it"

Li Si nodded, not surprised.

"How do you think those schools of thought will respond to the [Source of All Laws]?"

There are only a few methods.

Aurelion shook his head:

"Since it's inconvenient to target you directly, I'll target those who have joined the [Source of All Laws]."

"After all, you are only one person, and it is impossible for you to protect so many people in every aspect."

"If something goes wrong, it will be much easier to smear [the source of all laws] and kick them when they're down."

After a pause, Aurelion continued:

"Most importantly, if you want to move forward with many things, you need the approval of the Legendary Council."

"As you saw last time, unless the Third Speaker intervenes, Li Si, your even slightly practical proposals probably won't pass."

"In that case, it would be very troublesome to continue."

"Of course, Li Si, you can also make deals with other legendary councilors."

"After all, with control of Kane's Floating City, the bargaining chips you can offer are definitely stronger than those of the three top schools of thought."

Li Si nodded, understanding Aurelion's meaning.

Aurelion meant well.

Li Si had also considered his suggestion, and doing so would indeed eliminate many obstacles.

But Li Si did not want to do that.

In that case, what's the difference between us and the three top schools of thought?

In the short term, the "Source of All Laws" may develop rapidly, but in the long run, it will eventually follow the old path of the three major schools.

Therefore, Li Si intended to eliminate the possibility of these things happening as much as possible from the very beginning.

In "The Source of All Laws," Li Si aims to establish a "clean and upright" order.

"I know, there's something I'd like you to help me with."

Li Si said to Aurelion, then lowered his voice and whispered.

A moment later, Aurelion suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Si as if he were a ghost.

After Aurelion left, Li Si also sat down.

Aurelion's side is only making preparations on one side; Li Si will not put all his eggs in one basket.

However, there shouldn't be any open conflict between the two sides in the short term, right?

Li Si shook his head and brought up the system panel.
