Planting an immortal tree in the wizarding world

Chapter 3 The Silmaril
The Wizarding World.

Triumph City, the small attic.

Ronan, now dressed in medieval style, was examining the jade pendant in his hand.

This jade pendant was left by the Liu family ancestor.

Upon learning that the jade pendant had been pawned, Ronan immediately instructed his steward to redeem it.

The jade pendant was bluish-green and had a very good luster.

He feared that the jade pendant might be connected to immortals, so he did not investigate it thoroughly in the world of cultivation.

He didn't want to attract the attention of immortals after infusing the jade pendant with magic.

Now that he was back in the wizarding world, he felt relieved and focused his mind, channeling the little bit of magic power in his body into the jade pendant.

The next moment, his mind searched within the jade pendant and discovered a map.

This map is the map of the "Yue Kingdom," the country he resides in during his cultivation journey.

On the map, there is a bright spot.

The location of this point of light is precisely where Liu Han said it was the starting point of the migration route of the Liu family ancestors.

"Could that be a gathering place for cultivators?"

Despite this speculation, Ronan was not in a hurry to go there and investigate.

He needs to make preparations first.

"After all, my strength is still weak. If I rashly enter the unfamiliar world of cultivation, I may be in danger."

"For now, let's start practicing the Ancient Tree Longevity Technique."

"First, cultivate the immortality power of the ancient tree, then search for the demonic plant..."

"Magical plants... In the wizarding world, the most famous magical plant is none other than the elven tree of the elven kingdom."

"It is said that the main tree of this tree is located in the center of the Elf Kingdom, and it radiates a holy glow all day long."

"Its roots are intertwined throughout the Elf Kingdom."

"Legend has it that when the elves were the dominant species on the continent, the Elven Tree almost became the World Tree."

"The roots and branches of this precious tree are of great help to the cultivation of all professions."

"Some wizards, knights, and mercenaries who live on the edge will team up to infiltrate the Elf Kingdom."

"Of course, their main purpose is to capture elves as slaves. Incidentally, they will also take some roots, stems and leaves from the Elven Tree."

"However, the roots, stems, and leaves of the Fairy Tree are not cheap."

"I can't buy that with my current money."

"We can only wait for the gold coins to be sent from home."

"Before that, let's refine the ancient tree's longevity magic."

Ronan immediately sat down on the bed, crossed his legs, and faced the sky, following the cultivation posture described in the manual.

"Hongmeng, bring up my attribute values."

With Ronan's command.

A stream of information appeared in my mind.

Lifespan: 65
Power: 1.03
Spirit: 1.4
Mana: 0.6
Techniques: Kaguya Meditation Method (Beginner 30%), Wood-type Beginner Meditation Method (Beginner 6%)

Wizard Rank: First-Level Wizard Apprentice

There are two meditation methods in the attributes.

The Kaguya Meditation Method was purchased by the original owner from a passing wizard.

He bought the Wood-type Introductory Meditation Method from a wizard apprentice at a high price after failing the wizard aptitude test.

This meditation method was created by high-level wizards at the Kingdom's Wizarding Academy after researching many wood-attribute meditation methods. It is the most suitable meditation method for wood-attribute-affinity wizard apprentices to practice.

According to the laws of the kingdom, apart from the academies and schools registered with the kingdom that are allowed to teach witchcraft, other wizards are not permitted to teach witchcraft privately or sell wizarding knowledge.

Within the academy, a high-ranking wizard once proposed that every student who acquires the academy's meditation method must sign a contract promising not to divulge it to outsiders.

If the contract is violated, a curse will be inflicted, and the body will be corrupted by magic.

However, most of the wizard apprentices in the academy were from noble families.

Which nobleman would allow his offspring to sign such a contract?

Therefore, the high-ranking wizard's proposal ultimately came to nothing.

However, due to the high price of wizarding knowledge, it still circulated mainly within aristocratic circles, thus forming a knowledge monopoly to some extent.

Ronan practiced both meditation methods, but his physical strength did not increase; however, his mental and magical abilities improved significantly. Ronan followed the breathing techniques of the "Ancient Tree Longevity Technique."

The energy particles of the wizarding world, also known as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth as described in the manuals, flowed into his body like a trickle from the pores of his skin.

Immediately, his attributes changed.

Lifespan: 65↑

Strength: 1.03↑

Spirit: 1.4↑

Mana: 0.4↑

Cultivation Technique: Ancient Wood Longevity Technique (Beginner Level 0%↑) [Expand]
Cultivation Realms: Beginner Level of Qi Refining

Wizard Rank: First-Level Wizard Apprentice

“In the past, when I practiced meditation, only the [spirit] and [magic power] would show up arrows.”

"Now that I'm practicing the Ancient Wood Longevity Technique, even my [Power] has shown an upward arrow."

"It seems that cultivation techniques can not only increase magical power, but also improve physical constitution."

He had heard that wizard apprentices who did not undergo knightly training would be physically weak.

Only by advancing to the rank of a formal wizard can one cast spells and temper one's body with energy particles.

"Moreover, the Ancient Wood Longevity Technique is much more efficient at utilizing spiritual energy, that is, energy particles, than the Kaguya Meditation Method and the Wood-type Introductory Meditation Method."

Ronan gradually gathered his thoughts and continued his breathing exercises.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth entered his body, swirling in his dantian and forming a vortex that lingered for a long time.

Gradually, a sense of life began to emerge from the vortex.

……

A month passed quietly.

Under the sunlit sky, the capital city of Triumph is a place where undercurrents surge and power struggles unfold daily.

Even at the Kingdom Wizard Academy, it was just another battlefield for the powerful and wealthy.

Ronan was oblivious to everything else, spending almost all his time holed up in his attic, practicing the Ancient Tree Longevity Technique.

They will only go out when it's time to eat.

On this day, he sat cross-legged on the bed to cultivate.

Lifespan: 70↑

Strength: 2.03↑

Spirit: 2.3↑

Mana: 1.1↑

Cultivation Technique: Ancient Tree Longevity Technique (Level 1, 1%+)
Cultivation Realm: First Level of Qi Refining

Wizard Rank: First-Level Wizard Apprentice

The magical power circulating within his body was already as thick as a finger.

His physique has also become much stronger; his originally thin body now shows some muscle definition.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk!"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Ronan let out a soft sigh of relief.

A wisp of white vapor shot straight out from his mouth and nose.

After breathing exercises three more times, Ronan slowly finished, got out of bed, slipped on a pair of straw sandals, walked through the small hall, came to the door, and asked, "Who is it?"

“Is this Mr. Lawrence inside? You have a letter and a wooden box, sent from the Redwood Territory in the Southeast Province.” A man’s voice rang out from outside the door.

"Looks like Dad's gold coins have arrived." Ronan was overjoyed.

He had long since developed magical power, but because he lacked spiritual plants, he was unable to refine his "Life-Giving Tree".

Relying solely on his own absorption of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, his cultivation progress would naturally be slow given his aptitude.

Now that the gold coins have arrived, it's time to arrange for the cultivation of spiritual plants!

Ronan excitedly opened the door and received the letter and the wooden box.
