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

Chapter 277 Breakthrough to Morning Star (Part 1)

Chapter 277

"Morning Star Wizard!"

Lynn took a deep breath, his expression solemn and serious.

At this moment, he decided to charge towards that true insurmountable barrier in his wizarding career!
Although we were prepared, the pressure was still immense when we actually took this step.

After all, Morningstar Wizarding is a completely new world, a starting point that allows him to leap from the wizarding world into the endless stage of planes!
However, in terms of the operational process, Morning Star's breakthrough is quite similar to the advancement of a formal wizard:
His crystalline spiritual power had reached 375 points, completely filling the entire spiritual domain. His spiritual crystal wall was as solid as a sky curtain, reaching the limit of a level three great wizard.

Next, according to the conventional wizard advancement process, one should consume mental power growth resources to take the opportunity to expand the mental power limit, and in the process, carve a "permanent wizarding mark"!
Each advancement of a wizard is accompanied by a sublimation of their soul's essence, and the "Permanent Wizarding Mark" is the core and fundamental symbol representing this advancement.

However, the difficulty in breaking through to the Morning Star Wizard level lies precisely in this mark.

It is not an external spell that is prepared in advance and awaits inscription, but rather one that is spontaneously condensed and autonomously shaped by the wizard himself during the breakthrough!
If one is an elemental wizard, then one must rely on one's understanding of the laws to extract one's own innate rule imprint from the depths of one's soul.

But Lynn is a nature wizard!
He doesn't need to comprehend it alone; he can rely on the World Tree that he has just refined!

His gaze sharpened, and he took out the letter containing the hidden mystery.

"An invitation to the Soul Forging Tower."

The envelope was covered with distorted and strange characters, as if they were not written, but rather the "will" of some language, directly sealed on the paper.

At the very center, the outline of a straight, towering, dark black ancient tower is prominently depicted!
"Turn on!"

Lynn murmured softly as she slowly opened the envelope.

In an instant, a dazzling golden light flowed from the letter, as if divine revelation, descending from the sky and showering down on Lynn.

His body trembled slightly, as if he were being pulled up by some strange force, and his consciousness instantly left his body, passing through the mists of time and space.

He "saw" it...

Beyond the endless starry sky, there truly stands a silent tower.

The tower was entirely black, its surface covered with obscure and ancient runes and engravings, like a scepter held tightly in the hand of a giant god.

It is not built on a planet, but floats in the void.

The tower soars into the clouds, reaching straight into the chaos, with endless starry rivers flowing around it like mist.

Lynn, as if transformed into a wisp of will, slowly rose within this magnificent tower, wandering through layer after layer.

Each level he traversed was imbued with the power of mysterious rules, each level possessed an indescribable aura, lingering great power, and sealed imprints of will.

Although this is all just a journey of “consciousness projection” inspired by the invitation, it does not mean it is fake.

This really happened!
In the depths of that immeasurably distant, endless dimensional world, the "Soul Forging Tower" truly exists, standing tall in the void.

Lynn's spiritual journey is being briefly connected to him through the invitation!
Countless auras intertwined and vibrated, making Lynn's soul feel as if it were in a furnace, constantly being tempered, reshaped, and sublimated.

While Lynn's will roamed the Soul Forging Tower.

Within the long-silent void inside the tower, one ancient and vast will after another slowly awakened, as if opening their eyes from the abyss, casting curious and scrutinizing gazes.

"Hmm... The Soul Forging Tower's invitation period, which lasts once every ten thousand years, is about to end, and someone actually used an invitation at this time?"

An ancient voice, carrying a hint of surprise, rang out leisurely in the void, its tone tinged with a touch of mockery and amusement.

"An aura from... the wizarding world."

"Indeed impressive, a very pure spiritual energy structure... but that's not all. He also carries the aftereffects of the civilization of the gods... and even... traces of the main god's pursuit?"

"Tsk tsk, this is a bit complicated."

"But his own strength... is only a level three wizard? He hasn't even stepped into Morning Star, yet he's already entered the Soul Forging Tower?"

A powerful and profound will gave a cold snort, seemingly tinged with disdain:

"At this level, when he returns, he might be intercepted by the main god who is eyeing him."

"Don't worry, everything inside the Soul Forging Tower is illusory. His true form has not been truly exposed; only a vague 'spiritual image' has been left behind. This is also the significance of the invitation."

“If he had simply barged in with his ego, the gods who were pursuing him would have already taken action.”

These ancient wills from all sides intersected and collided, conversing with each other, as if suddenly finding a fresh pastime in the midst of utter boredom.

"This little guy... seems to have good aptitude, his aura is lively, and his spiritual domain is quite clean... What do you think are his chances of successfully breaking through?"

"I think it's seven out of ten," a gentle voice said slowly, its tone warm and refined.

"Ha, too optimistic." The deep voice sneered. "I think he'll fail. His mental state is too pure, lacking tempering."

"Then how about... we make a bet?"

"If you lose, you will accompany me on a journey to the realm of the gods."

"Okay, but what if you lose?"

"I won't lose."

After that gentle voice faded, a brief silence fell over the void, as if the entire Soul Forging Tower had also quieted down.

But at this moment.

The Soul Forging Tower suddenly trembled slightly, with countless phantoms intertwining and auras reverberating.

A bright, star-like soul imprint quietly rose from the top of the tower, transforming into a wisp of light that drifted peacefully there.

In an instant, those wills sensed this strange phenomenon and spoke up one after another:
"He... broke through!"

"They actually succeeded? And they even obtained the mark for the next round of invitations to the Soul Forging Tower?"

"This little guy... is quite interesting."

That gentle will chuckled softly, its voice revealing a hint of triumphant certainty and ease:
"It seems I've won this round."

The muffled voice remained silent for a few moments before finally responding indifferently:
"If you really have to go to the Divine Realm next time... remember to call me. I... need to sleep for a while longer."

As those words fell, the once clamorous sea of ​​will returned to silence.

Only that brand-new soul imprint floated quietly on the wall of the Soul Forging Tower, inconspicuous like the other densely packed imprints.

………………

Meanwhile, in the wizarding world.

Meanwhile, Lynn slowly opened her eyes in the real world, a trace of starlight still lingering in them.

His breath hitched slightly as his mind returned from the starry tower, and his consciousness cleared once more.

The journey we just took, though seemingly short, felt like a thousand-year dream.

It was a baptism of the soul, and the improvement it brought to Lynn was enormous.

Since returning from the Soul Forging Tower, his aura has undergone a dramatic transformation.

The first thing to change was his mental realm, the core foundation of his wizardry. But at this moment, Lynn's mental realm was in a state of complete collapse and shattering!
Originally, as a level three great wizard, his mental domain limit was 375 points of crystalline mental power.

If there is a minor improvement, he will be expelled from the mental realm; if it is a large-scale and forceful improvement, his mental realm may explode.

Now, his spiritual power seems to surge like a sea of ​​stars, boundless and far exceeding the original limit!
His mental state collapsed.

If an ordinary person were to suffer such a blow, they would have already been annihilated, their body and spirit shattered.

But Lynn remained sitting perfectly still in the same spot.

Because he has two layers of protection.

Lynn gazed into the depths of the ruins of his own mental world, his eyes as clear as a cold pool.

The first line of defense originates from the Soul Forging Tower.

It was an invisible starlight protection, the ancient blessing power remaining in the invitation, wrapped around the shattered spiritual boundary, slowly enveloping and smoothing it, like a transparent barrier, preventing the spread of complete collapse.

However, this protection was ultimately an external force, and it is now slowly dissipating.

The second line of defense is Lynn's most crucial asset.

That was the projection left in the spiritual realm of the extraordinary plant world tree that he had just refined!

A mysterious, illusory tree, with its branches and leaves flourishing, stands quietly in the center of the spiritual realm.

Its roots penetrated deep into the chaotic soil of the soul, releasing a gentle yet powerful life rhythm, as if infusing Lynn's newborn spiritual body with inexhaustible energy.

"Destruction precedes construction... Now that there are no worries about the future, it's time for a formal breakthrough."

Lynn withdrew her gaze, her mind clear and undisturbed.

The collapse of his mental state was not an accident, but a crucial step he had planned long ago.

Only by completely shattering the old vessel can a spiritual world truly worthy of the Morning Star Wizard be rebuilt!
"World Tree... let me see your true secret."

Instead of immediately using the second treasure, he first mobilized his own spiritual power, concentrating on activating the deep power of the World Tree.

As his consciousness deepened, the originally illusory World Tree began to change.

With its branches swaying and roots growing, the entire tree quickly becomes more real and solid.

A verdant glow permeated the entire shattered spiritual world, like an oasis quietly reviving in a scorched wasteland.

It was an extremely pure life force, close to the very essence of the rules, seeping into every inch of Lynn's spiritual imprint like a gentle stream.

At that moment, three familiar beams of light appeared in his mental realm.

A level one permanent sorcery mark, bringing emptiness and stillness, like the first snow falling, leaving all things silent.

A level two permanent sorcery mark, the sky hangs down like a forest pressing down, the might of heaven descends upon you.

Level 3 Permanent Sorcery Mark, Skyward Chase Flash, like a falling meteor, streaking across the sky!

The three marks, dazzling and bright, seem to be three streaks of light he left behind along his journey.

Now, these three marks quietly detached from their original positions and slowly drifted toward the gradually materializing World Tree.

They seemed to sense a kind of calling, a will from a higher level, and the recognition from the World Tree itself.

Lynn did not move, his mind as still as water, his gaze sharp as lightning.

He knew this was the most crucial step for the Morning Star Wizard:
Let all the past be engraved in the foundation of the future.

And when the three permanent magical marks are fully integrated with the World Tree.

The fourth mark will naturally take root, sprout, and bloom at the top of the World Tree!
That will be his true mark of the Morning Star!

Rumble!
The sea of ​​souls churned endlessly, while three permanent sorcery marks, shimmering with starlight, floated silently below, like stars fallen to the bottom of an abyss.

The World Tree, growing ever more solid with roots that stretched out like dragons and snakes, stood atop it, like an eternal and sacred central axis.

The roots of the World Tree slowly descended, like countless threads of order and law, tightly wrapping the three magical marks.

The tender green light emanating from the World Tree transformed into endless rhythms, permeating the shattered spiritual realm, like a gentle spring breeze and rain, softly mending every crack.

Lynn's consciousness had long since sunk deep into his spirit, becoming completely integrated with the World Tree.

He roamed within the rules of this extraordinary plant, as if wandering in some new "order of truth":
Creating heaven and earth, nurturing all living beings, reshaping the rules...

At that moment, Lynn seemed to see the chaotic wilderness where all things were born, to see the first ray of light piercing through the eternal night, to see all spirits awakening from their roots, and to see a will holding up the void, creating the world in silence.

His gaze grew increasingly profound, yet a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"The World Tree... gave birth to a new world... The Creator may never witness his Second Age..."

"But with the blessing of the World Tree, my spiritual realm... will usher in my second era!"

At that moment, Lynn suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze filled with undisguised excitement and ecstasy!
"The power of the World Tree... is more suitable than any extraordinary plant for breaking through to the Morning Star Wizard level!"

"The first step is the Law of Creation!"

"To create everything, to reshape heaven and earth... then, of course, one can also reshape my spiritual world!"

As Lynn gave his thought, the World Tree trembled violently, as if responding to his will.

One after another, tender green rays of light began to surge, gradually evolving into a torrent of rules that swept towards the shattered spiritual realm!

boom!
The spiritual realm, which was originally broken into ruins, was bathed in green light.

Invisible walls of spiritual boundaries appeared all around, slowly piecing together, expanding, and extending, as if the foundation of a new world was being laid.

At the same time, the spiritual energy that was originally crystallized and densely filled the entire field also began to drift and fill those newly formed spaces.

The originally terrifyingly solid spiritual power was as if it had been "diluted" again, drifting in the boundless space, merely spreading out a thin layer of light and mist.

"Vast...vast...like the starry sky itself!"

Lynn gazed at this emerging spiritual realm, his mind reeling.

It was an unprecedented sense of vastness, a spiritual shock that made one feel small yet exhilarated.

This is the realm of Morning Star's spirit.

That is not only the source of a wizard's power, but also an extension of his "meaning of existence," and the source of his power to become the master of a plane.

However, he did not become complacent with his current achievements, but quickly turned his attention to the next stage.

"The spiritual realm has been successfully rebuilt... So, next up is the 'Permanent Spell Mark' that belongs to the fourth-level Morning Star Wizard!"

Lynn's eyes flashed, his mind cleared, and his thoughts sank into the deepest part of the World Tree.

Just now, as he merged with the World Tree, he glimpsed a true source of law belonging to "himself"...
