The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 644 Promotion
"…Destiny?"

Richard looked at the mark on his hand and touched it thoughtfully. But he didn't hesitate because he had figured it out.

No matter what the future holds, life will continue to pass.

"Ulises, how do we get the crown of the Ghost King?"

Richard looked back at the battlefield where they had just been. As the incident happened suddenly, they did not pay attention to the remains of the Ghost King when they fled.

"Gah, kill another one."

Ulises came back to his senses and shook his head slightly.

"The Ghost King's crown only lasts a short time. If we go back now, it may no longer be there."

Richard sighed and waved his staff silently. Soon, a dimensional rift leading to the material world appeared in front of the two.

"Then let's go back and hunt again in soul form."

Ulises was slightly surprised, "You actually learned it on your own!?"

It hasn't taught Richard how to open dimensional rifts these days.

Richard glanced at him and said calmly, "This thing isn't that difficult. You've tried it three times. If you put in some effort, you should be able to do it."

"Gah, I told you you're fat and you're out of breath. Let's go in quickly. That guy just made such a big noise. Don't invite the dimensional master of the ghost dimension again."

After returning to the secret realm, the souls left the body, and after the man and the bird properly preserved the things they had obtained in the past few days, they set out again.

After being replaced by pure souls, the ghost dimension became friendly. Without the guidance of life energy, the ghosts in the ghost dimension treated Richard and his companions with respect.

There will be no fight if you don't provoke.

However, for a wizard like Richard, it is obviously impossible not to provoke ghosts.

[Raw Materials: Ghost Crystal]

[Substances that can be refined: Death Energy Essence]

[Refining consumption: 20000 mana]

[Substances that can be refined: Soul Essence]

[Refining consumption: 0.025 mental power]

In Richard's hand, there was a ghost crystal compressed from a ghost body, glowing faintly under the purple moon of the ghost dimension.

"It can actually extract soul essence."

Richard looked at the information given by the Miracle Furnace and a surprised smile appeared on his face.

Although he didn't have to worry about nightmare power because of Wu Ni's relationship, it was a bit too much for him as a teacher to always go to Wu Ni to get nightmare power.

But he couldn't let the nightmare farm where the bones were located become his, because after the total war began, all the worlds of wizard civilization were taken over by the Parliament of Truth, and the same was true for the Wizard Chamber of Commerce. Moreover, the quick-made wizard system had completely destroyed the wizard market in the past. Now, new wizards all used assembly line magic costumes produced by alchemy workshops, and few wizards made their own magic costumes.

This means that even if the Wizarding Chamber of Commerce still exists, it will go bankrupt due to sudden changes in the market.

The super trust, the Parliament of Truth, has occupied all market space.

Of course, this is only temporary. Even the Truth Wizard cannot wantonly deprive wizards of their personal property, otherwise wizard civilization will cease to exist. These things taken away at the beginning of the war will be returned in full after the war - as long as you are still alive.

It took Richard and his companion a month to find a level 4 Ghost King. For a level 4 wizard who was about to be promoted to a fourth-ring wizard and a high-level god, a level 4 Ghost King was obviously just a plaything.

In a moment, the Ghost King died, or to be more precise, his sanity disappeared, because ghosts themselves are "dead".

This ghost king looked like a three-headed dog. As he died, his body turned into a palm-sized canine in the air. Richard, who had been prepared, immediately sealed it with a sealing technique to extend its existence. Then the man and the bird returned to the fairyland world.

Now that the materials have been prepared, all that remains is to build the ritual venue.

The area where Richard was promoted was set on a plain in the central and western part of the fairyland world. The magic environment here was stable, and there was no terrain around that might affect the ceremony.

On this plain, Richard drew a huge magic circle with a diameter of nearly 100 kilometers by himself - this was his promotion ceremony, and he really didn't trust others to do it.

Besides, this is not a difficult thing for a world master.

In three months, Richard completed the construction of the magic circle. From the array base to the magic circuit, to the drawing of countless runes, he did it all by himself.

After completing all this, he placed the many precious materials he had prepared in advance on the five altars of the magic circle. He also completed his own life rules and then used soul essence to replenish his soul.

"Gah, what a magnificent creation."

Ulises fell from the sky and stood firmly on Richard's shoulder. "It's okay."

Richard replied while stretching his body.

At this moment, he was standing in the center of the magic circle. The magic power in his body was constantly surging, and the life radiation on his body was as vigorous as the sun, so much so that a lot of green grass even grew on the land beside him.

"Gah, is there anything I can help you with next?"

"Don't let anyone get close to my magic circle. Also, when I get promoted, there will probably be some major anomalies. Pay attention to the control of public opinion and see if you can get some fanatics."

"Gah, you are becoming more and more professional, my Lord God."

Ulises left, and Richard quietly adjusted his body to the best condition.

Breaking through to level five is a difficult process, no matter which evolutionary route you take.

According to information from the wizarding world, if a wizard is on the path of spiritual evolution, when he is promoted to a fifth-ring great wizard, he will once again fall into the soul maze he experienced when he was promoted to the fourth ring, and this time the degree of confusion will be even higher.

There is less information on the physical evolution route, but according to the only available information, when advancing on this evolution route, the creature will face two difficulties. The first is the shattering and reorganization of the life core. If this step cannot be overcome, the body of the creature will directly collapse due to the collapse of the life core. The second is that after the life core is reorganized, it will be attacked by the wild instinct from the depths of the blood. If controlled by this instinct, the wizard will become a beast with only animal desires, and in the endless changes of the life core, the life core will collapse and die.

The road of evolution is always paved with thorns; no road is without difficulties.

The sun slowly set from the horizon. Richard stood in the middle of the magic circle, took a deep breath, and silently activated the magic circle.

The next moment, a faint blue light started from Richard's feet and spread in all directions like a ignited fuse. In just a few breaths, this huge magic array with a diameter of nearly 100 kilometers was fully activated. At the moment the magic array was fully activated, the whole world seemed to be stagnant.

Then the wind came.

The huge magic circle with a diameter of one hundred kilometers requires a huge amount of energy. Even though Richard has inserted tens of millions of magic essences into this land, this magic circle still needs external energy to keep running.

A huge amount of energy turned into an energy hurricane in the air. The wandering elements in the space were attracted by the energy, forming one elemental vision after another in the air.

Seen from outside the magic circle, it seemed as if a fireworks show was taking place in the sky above the area where the magic circle was located, and all kinds of indescribable colors formed surrealist paintings in the air.

In the center of the magic circle, runes began to emerge on Richard's body. These runes were all spiritual runes that constructed the body of rules. The moment the body of rules was completely integrated into the body, these runes also merged into the body.

But now, these runes are disappearing one by one in a regular pattern.

The first step in constructing a body that conforms to the rules is to disassemble the original body of rules.

As the Rule Body was dismantled, the energy sealed by the Rule Body was also continuously released. This huge energy was enough to shatter mountains and split the sea, but under the effect of the magic array, they were all dispersed and introduced into the energy storage area of ​​the magic array.

Soon, the body of rules was dismantled.

A huge amount of mental power surged out of Richard's body, constructing a new framework of the body of rules at a dazzling speed. The mental power turned into runes, constantly filling in this huge array that was as complex as the Ten Rings of Sorcery.

Time passed little by little, and the construction of runes as numerous as stars was completed.

At this moment, Richard's mental power was almost exhausted, and the mental power consumed in constructing the composite rule body was somewhat beyond his estimation.

"Fortunately, I was prepared."

Richard took out a bottle of magic potion with soul essence as the main ingredient from his waist pocket and swallowed it in one breath. The next moment, Richard felt refreshed. His mental strength, which was about to be exhausted, was like being injected with a stream of clear spring water and became active again.

Richard pulled himself together and took out the two rules, or rather the one compound rule, that were integrated into his body.

After the life rule was complete, Richard's compound rule was completely complete. Its external manifestation in the material world was a group of amorphous streams of light. Everything illuminated by this stream of light would feel the endless vitality.

Put this group of rules into the body of rules. The next moment, the light dissipated, and the entire body of rules began to run rapidly like an engine that had been turned on.

At the same time, the huge magic circle that Richard had spent three months setting up was like the last piece of a puzzle, and it also began to operate at full speed.

The sacrificial array located at the five centers of the array was fully activated, and the sacrifices on the altar began to exert their effects.

The star core attracted endless starlight on the altar, replenishing the huge array with endless energy. The Fountain of Life and the Fountain of Soul continuously provided Richard with spiritual power and vitality. The crown of the Ghost King turned into a huge three-headed dog, ready to merge with Richard's body of rules at any time. Before him, the fruit of the world tree had already turned into the origin of evolution and was sacrificed to Richard by the sacrificial array.

Boom!

An invisible roar exploded in Richard's head.

It was the sound of his core breaking.

If a level 4 creature is the strongest of a race, then from the moment it becomes a level 5 creature, it is equivalent to opening up a branch on the evolutionary tree.

If Richard succeeds, his bloodline, if passed on, will become a special physique among humans. In the ancient times, perhaps a wizard apprentice will awaken his bloodline and become a genius.

But if he fails, his body will be broken and this promotion will be a complete failure.
