The Wizard: From Zero-Ring Wizard to Almighty Lord.

Chapter 181 Mid-stage Second-Level Wizard
Chapter 181

Lynn's mental domain was now entirely composed of vaporized mental energy. Thanks to the high-pressure environment, the continuous flow of mental energy had compressed the mental energy within his mental domain to the vaporized stage.

Therefore, his mental domain has reached the limit of a first-level wizard, capable of holding 175 points of mental power.

However, external spiritual energy continues to pour in!

Lynn's cultivation level was rising like a surging tide, rapidly approaching the threshold of a second-level wizard!
At this very moment, deep within the Seven Star Temple, Lynn sat cross-legged on the ground, his entire body bathed in a pale blue light.

His spiritual energy had begun to overflow from between his eyebrows, rising slowly in the air like mist, creating a sacred and mysterious scene.

Not far away, Qi quietly watched Lynn, his brows slightly furrowed, as if deep in thought.

In this hunt, the amount of Faith Power they seized from the Seven Star Temple was hundreds of times greater than the previous one!

This also caused the spiritual power fed back by the Azure Sky Spirit residing in Lynn's body to become unprecedentedly vast when absorbing the power of faith.

This surging spiritual energy washed over Lynn's mental realm like a vast ocean.

In Qi's eyes, Lynn's previously immature spiritual realm is now expanding, sublimating, and breaking through at an unprecedented speed!
He whispered to himself:
"It seems... he'll be able to break through to level two wizard soon."

However, Qi was unaware that at the same time he was watching Lynn...

The latter's consciousness was already immersed in the spiritual realm, and it was having a dialogue with the maple tree residing deep within the core of the Azure Sky Spirit.

"continue."

Lynn's voice was deep and firm, filled with an obsession that seemed to tear his very soul apart, "Give me more mental energy!"

The sound of the maple trees was like the wind rustling through the treetops, carrying a hint of hesitation:
“Your mental strength is already enough to break through the threshold of a second-level wizard... Do you still want to continue pouring it in? That's not wise.”

His consciousness now resides deep within the core of the Azure Sky Spirit. The originally dormant spirit body, like ancient tree roots, is deeply embedded in the void, yet it has quietly and firmly grasped the spiritual source of the Azure Sky Spirit.

The power of faith entered the Azure Sky Spirit, partly transforming into the energy needed by the Azure Sky Spirit, and a considerable portion was given to Lynn.

At this moment, with just a thought, a massive amount of mental energy could be poured out like a tidal wave, heading towards Lynn's mental domain.

For a wizard, the spiritual realm is their "lifeblood," the only vessel that holds their spiritual power.

While mental strength is the foundation of extraordinary power, if it exceeds the upper limit of the mental realm, it is like forcibly pouring water into a porcelain cup, which will at least crack or at worst shatter!
It's like blowing up a balloon; you blow more and more air until the balloon bursts.

But Lynn was different.

He is a nature wizard. His spiritual realm is not empty; rather, it has long since nurtured a unique and extraordinary plant, making his entire spiritual world vibrant and incredibly robust, far surpassing anything that a conventional first-level wizard could achieve.

That's why he dared to make this almost insane request.

And the maple tree understood this, adding:

“I can give you more mental energy, but you need to know…”

"When the mental realm is overwhelmed, there will be a violent tearing sensation, a splitting headache, and even a collapse of consciousness..."

Excessive spiritual energy in the spiritual realm, if not refined or expelled from the body in time, can cause headaches that feel like the soul is being torn apart and the brain is exploding.

Lynn knew all this, of course. He took a deep breath and said repeatedly to confirm:
"This is a rare opportunity. Compared to temporary pain, I'd rather achieve great things in one go... You should be able to sense the upper limit of my mental domain, so please fill it up to that limit for me!"

Maple Tree remained silent for a few seconds. He could naturally "see" that Lynn's mental domain had expanded to its limit, with mental energy surging and crashing within it like a tide, almost overflowing.

But he also sensed the determination in Lynn's words, so he stopped hesitating and started controlling the Azure Sky Spirit.

boom!
A magnificent, emerald-green divine light suddenly burst forth from between Lynn's brows, like a sudden clap of thunder in spring, surging with verdant vitality.

This radiance was more intense and blazing than ever before!
The spiritual energy surged into Lynn's body like a reverse flow of spiritual energy!
Initially, only wisps of misty air appeared on the forehead.

But at this moment, these air currents had become as thick as fog, enveloping Lynn entirely.

The entire hall seemed to be bathed in a turquoise storm of spiritual energy!

Meanwhile, Qi had already noticed the anomaly from the outside world.

His pupils suddenly contracted as he looked at Lynn's seemingly "rising" spiritual outline, his expression unusually serious.

"What's going on? The Azure Sky Spirit... the intensity of its feedback has suddenly increased?"

"Did something happen?"

He couldn't tell.

Changes in the spiritual realm are extremely private, and even someone at the level of enlightenment would find it difficult to discern Lynn's true inner state.

But he also knew that this moment was crucial for Lynn's breakthrough, and if he interrupted it rashly, there would be endless troubles.

"May the power of faith contained within this temple be enough to nourish the spirit of the Azure Sky..."

A hint of worry appeared in Qi's eyes.

He knew better than anyone how rare such an opportunity was.

The loss of the goddess's faith power in the Seven Star Temple will inevitably cause those goddess forces to prematurely reclaim the spiritual power accumulated in the temples below.

Even if the next hunt is successful, the amount of faith power gained will probably not even be a fraction of what was gained the first time...

boom!
An immense and unparalleled power erupted from Lynn's body like a volcano!

His aura surged instantly, reaching the peak of the first-level wizard realm.

At this moment, with the infusion of massive spiritual power, it seemed to break through invisible shackles and crash fiercely toward the threshold of a second-level wizard!
The mental realm was violently shaken, as if a shackle in the depths of the sea of ​​consciousness had been pried open, releasing deep potential and dormant will.

The surging spiritual energy within his body began to resonate with Lynn's consciousness like never before, like a giant bird spreading its wings in a howling wind, soaring towards a higher sky!
His eyes were closed, sweat beaded on his forehead, but his body remained motionless, as if he were enduring some kind of extreme trial.

Although Maple Tree once said that the three realms of a formal wizard are considered a major stage, and there will be advancements in realm during this period, it is not comparable to the sublimation and evolution across stages.

Even so, it is still a significant improvement.

The improvement brought about by the elevation of one's realm is an all-round improvement.

First and foremost is mental strength. Level 2 wizards are also divided into three stages, similar to Level 1 wizards.

What's different is that the third stage of mental power for a level two wizard is a full one hundred points more than the mental power of a level one wizard!
A level one wizard's mental strength increases from 100 points initially to 175 points ultimately.

The mental strength of a level two wizard increases from 200 points initially to 275 points in the end!

The improvement in mental strength is considerable!
In addition to mental power, a level two wizard can naturally construct a second permanent magical mark in the mental realm, inscribing a level two formal wizardry spell within it!
Second-level witchcraft is a higher level of witchcraft that is far superior to first-level witchcraft.

Once successfully constructed, a level two wizard can easily deal with a level one wizard.

At that time, with the opening of the permanent magical imprint, energy factors will also radiate and enhance the human body, thereby strengthening the physical body...

The path of a wizard has never been merely a journey of power, but also an evolution and sublimation of the essence of life.

Every breakthrough in one's realm signifies a "self-reconstruction."

Therefore, in addition to the improvement in strength, a second-level wizard is also "higher" than a first-level wizard.

In a specific sense, this means that second-level wizards have a longer lifespan than first-level wizards.

A first-level wizard's lifespan usually ends at 250 years, with a maximum of 300.

The lifespan of a level two wizard is doubled to five hundred years.

This is not just about having more time, but also about having the "time capital" for pursuing truth, conducting in-depth experiments, making strategic plans, and controlling one's destiny.

In the entire wizarding world, second-level wizards are no longer unknown figures.

They are the "establishment faction"!

A level two wizard is enough to establish a foundational sect and occupy a resource-rich land.

They could even build their own private witchcraft families, forming their own lineage and passing it down through generations in a world where chaos and rules intertwine.

Even if they don't become independent kings, as long as they join a powerful force, behemoths like extraordinary organizations, magic academies, and even mechanical cities will extend olive branches to them.

The mechanical capital, such a powerful force, still requires first-level wizards to undergo layers of review, skill testing, and knowledge matching.
But for level two wizards, it's a "direct admission without examination"!
This system itself represents the highest level of recognition for "secondary" status in the world.

At this moment, Lynn's entire body was enveloped in a dense layer of cyan light.

It was a verdant green, like all things awakening and a spring breeze caressing one's face, a natural rhythm that was fresh and vibrant, dancing and emerging around him.

This touch of blue is the embodiment of the "Spirit of the Blue Sky".

The blue light flowed like water, overflowing from his pores and pouring back into his body like fine rain, repeating the cycle repeatedly.

Each flow seemed to cleanse his spirit and body.

In addition to the refreshing blue aura, a faint layer of smoke lingered around Lynn's body.

That was no ordinary fog, but a sign of spiritual power materializing.

Like a pale silver veil, it enveloped him, swirling and swirling in the air, appearing and disappearing, adding an air of mystery and unpredictability to his entire being. Mental mist—this was a wondrous sight that only appeared when one was about to step into the threshold of a second-level wizard, when their mental power surged and overflowed.

Looking at the entire wizarding system, the process for a first-level wizard to break through to the second level is actually complicated and demanding.

They not only need a complete and reliable advanced meditation method, but also must collect witchcraft templates that meet their requirements.

Only by catalyzing the expansion of mental power through specific magical potion resources can a second permanent magical mark be carved into the mental realm.

But Lynn broke the rules one by one!
Although he did not obtain the complete meditation method, the "Azure Sky Meditation Method" he possessed was sufficient to support him in completing the entire path of the second level.

This meditation method is extraordinary, originating from the lineage of the Natural God Dynasty, making it most suitable for a nature wizard like him.

As for the level two sorcery templates, although Lynn did not personally hunt for them, he had already mastered a variety of rare templates from the memories inherited from the Maple Tree.

Those concise, elegant, and natural techniques had long been repeatedly deduced in his mind and engraved in his heart.

The only exception is the magic potion.

For ordinary wizards, potions are the key to breakthroughs.

It can unleash latent spiritual power, allowing consciousness to undergo a high-intensity impact in a short period of time, thereby forcibly constructing a magical seal.

Lynn doesn't need potions at all!
The spiritual energy fed back by the Spirit of Azure Sky was like a constantly flowing spring, pouring wave after wave into his spiritual realm.

That feeling of abundance was almost absurd, like being "rolling in money."

Without any oppression or restrictions, an endless stream of natural spiritual energy, like an overwhelming green tide, lifted, enveloped, and transformed his entire being!
Even the former Maple Tree, who broke through from a first-level wizard to a second-level wizard, never possessed the kind of "wasteful" mental energy that Lynn displayed.

"Fortunately... I started preparing for today as soon as the maple trees recovered, and I mastered the necessary templates early on."

Lynn murmured softly, her voice tinged with barely suppressed excitement.

After saying that, he slowly closed his eyes and his consciousness sank into the spiritual realm.

There, it was vast and deep, like a starry sea in the void.

And deep within that sea of ​​stars, there is a faintly shimmering magical mark, standing firmly in the depths of the spirit like an ancient rune relief.

That was the "Emptiness and Stillness" technique he had been practicing since he was a first-level wizard.

After repeated meditation, practice, and adjustments, this illusion technique has been sublimated into his first permanent sorcery mark.

Now, he wants to leave a new "mark" in this spiritual world!
A powerful, stable, and interconnected magical totem belonging to a level two wizard.

Lynn slowly extended his spiritual hand beside "Attain Emptiness and Stillness," outlining strange and ancient symbols in the sea of ​​stars.

These symbols did not come out of thin air, but were templates that he had already memorized in his heart, which he then awakened one by one from his memory.

The power of the Azure Sky Spirit continued to flow into it, making this totem relief no longer just a mere imagination, but gradually materializing, taking shape, and solidifying in his world of consciousness.

Each stroke of a symbol represents the release and consumption of mental energy.

However, with the continuous supply of Azure Sky Power, Lynn could almost "waste" his mental energy without any restraint.

Although the shock from the surge of energy still gave him a splitting headache, and he almost lost consciousness several times, he gritted his teeth and endured it.

He had practiced all of this a thousand times, and he was so familiar with every stroke, every curve and turn that he could do it perfectly even with his eyes closed.

This is a sculpture destined for success; all it needs is time.

Time flows slowly in the spiritual world, while the outside world remains silent.

The light emitted by the Spirit of the Azure Sky remained lush and vibrant, like tender leaves in a forest in early spring, full of life.

Lynn sat cross-legged in the center of the hall, his posture as straight as a pine tree. The spiritual mist surrounding him grew increasingly dense, like a soul statue about to emerge from its cocoon and become a butterfly.

He remained motionless, yet the entire hall seemed to breathe and vibrate in unison with him.

Qi Jingjing gazed at the figure enveloped in azure light before him. Though his heart was calm, he also harbored some doubts, wondering when Lin En would be able to break through.

"When exactly... will he finally take that step?"

Qi murmured to himself, his gaze slightly narrowed.

However, at that moment, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his brows furrowed tightly!

A change appeared between Lynn's eyebrows!
That place was originally the densest source of spiritual energy mist, like a vent for the spiritual world, from which invisible mist often dissipated.

But at this moment, the smoke no longer drifted aimlessly; instead, it began to gather!
It was as if thick clouds were rolling in the sky, oppressive and heavy, gradually condensing into an undeniable spiritual "thundercloud".

As the "thundercloud" continued to compress, a semi-transparent droplet with a pale silver luster finally slowly condensed deep within Lynn's brow.

Dripping!

That is not water from the mortal world, but a spiritual liquid refined from pure spiritual power!
"Mental energy... liquefied?!"

This is the most direct and iconic characteristic of becoming a second-level wizard!

Mental energy is no longer a loose, gaseous state, but has begun to transform into a higher level through massive accumulation and high condensation.

This change not only symbolizes that Lynn has made a breakthrough, but also means that his quality and density in the spiritual dimension have undergone a fundamental sublimation!

"Success."

Qi muttered to himself, but his gaze remained fixed on her for even a moment.

Because the next moment, he noticed a new anomaly.

The spiritual energy mist that had been surrounding Lynn dissipated rapidly at a visible speed, as if the sea of ​​fog had suddenly lost its support and turned into specks of light that drifted into the void.

But the smoke didn't disappear; instead, an even more miraculous transformation occurred.

Wisps of damp mist, accompanied by dew-like glimmers of light, rose around him.

It wasn't just a gas, but a kind of "spiritual mist," with a slightly liquid texture, crystal clear, like the morning dew of nature, sacred and ethereal.

This is a further step in spiritual transformation!

"This Azure Sky Spirit... is still giving back?"

Qi's gaze grew increasingly complex, and an almost unbelievable conjecture surfaced in his mind.

He sensed the changes in Lynn's mental energy, and the values ​​were soaring like a flood bursting its banks.

Two hundred points... two hundred and ten points... two hundred and twenty points...

Every ten o'clock signifies a qualitative shift in Lynn's mental world, with his entire mental structure being reshaped!
"Two hundred and twenty-five points... that's already the peak of the early stage of a level two wizard. One more step and you'll be at the mid-stage..."

But the numbers are still rising!

Two hundred and thirty, two hundred and forty...

"Could this guy be..."

Qi's eyes darted around, sensing something was amiss, because the Azure Sky Spirit's actions were far more unusual than the first time.

The first Azure Sky Spirit only granted Lynn a small amount of spiritual power, while Lynn absorbed most of the power of faith himself.

But this time, the Spirit of the Azure Sky repeatedly "replenished" Lynn's reserves, as if it wanted to elevate Lynn to a point where he could not progress any further.

The thought had barely formed in his mind when, before Qi could react, the world suddenly changed drastically!
His eyes suddenly darkened, and an extremely dangerous intuition arose in his heart. He grabbed back and suddenly a dazzling golden light exploded out!

The light fell like a curtain from the sky, enveloping Lynn entirely and forcibly pulling him and the Azure Sky Spirit into a dreamlike alternate dimension.

The next instant, the golden light vanished, and all three disappeared from their original positions.

And the very next moment after they disappeared!
A divine pressure suddenly descended upon the Seven Star Temple, as if a god had awakened, causing the heavens and earth to tremble!
"boom!!!"

An immense, almost indescribable divine power crashed down from the void, illuminating the entire temple!
Within that vast divine light, a familiar yet unsettling figure quietly emerged.

It was none other than the mage Bedd.

His face was cold and filled with murderous intent; he should have been on the front lines of the battle.

At this moment, he appeared in the temple with a grim expression, his killing intent like a sword, pointing directly in the direction he had just disappeared!
However, he had no intention of giving chase. Instead, he immediately took care of the Seven Star Divine Artifacts in the area, ensuring their safety.

But then he suddenly discovered that the faith power of the Seven Star Temple he was in charge of had changed from being abundant to being extremely thin.

The artifact has been interrupted from its revival state and has been stalled for an unknown period of time.

"damn it!"

Upon witnessing this scene, the murderous intent in the heart of the mage Bed was even more overwhelming, because the interruption of the artifact's revival would inevitably attract the attention of the goddess.

He, a mere seven-star, has already failed the goddess's expectations, and the goddess has discovered everything!
