Wizard: My career panel has no upper limit

Chapter 29 Meditation Breakthrough [Wizard Apprentice]

The ventilation window panes in the confinement cell were very small, letting in only a thin sliver of daylight.

But for Ron now, this is enough.

In this stone room of only about ten square meters, there is only a simple wooden bed, a bucket for feces and urine, and a tilted wooden table with a missing leg.

But this simple environment actually allowed him to focus more on cultivation.

"It's a good place to practice meditation." Ron smiled self-deprecatingly.

The law enforcement team's management of the detained people was relatively lax, and I don't know if it was because of Holt's secret efforts.

A fairly sufficient meal is delivered to the confinement cell on time every day, and they are even allowed to keep some personal belongings - of course, these items have been strictly inspected to ensure that they do not pose a safety risk.

Ron took out Darend's notebook from his pocket and studied it carefully in the dim light.

Now he has a deeper understanding of the concept of sonic magic.

Especially through his understanding of "rhythm" during this period, he saw many details that he had not noticed before.

[Sonic Oscillation (Prototype) Experience + 3]

[Current progress: Sonic vibration (prototype 87/100)]

“Here’s the key”

He finally understood why Darende had hit a bottleneck in his research.

In fact, the other party's initial idea of ​​using musical notes to perfect the sonic spell was undoubtedly correct, but this process was obviously a slow and tedious process.

After repeated setbacks, the urgency of time made Darend try to use external force to enhance the output of mental power.

Because they lost the correct idea at the beginning, they ended up going to extremes and causing tragedy.

Just as the Coronal Breathing Technique imitates the movement of the sun, this sonic spell should also find its own rhythm.

Putting down the notebook, Ron began his daily meditation.

In this isolated environment, his mind reached an unprecedented level of concentration.

【Basic Meditation Begins】

[Current Progress: Basic Meditation (Beginner 93/100)]

In the space of consciousness, the rune composed of three arcs became clearer and clearer.

Unlike the stiff runes of the past, the runes now seem to carry a certain lively rhythm.

Every flow of mental power became extremely smooth, as if it had found the most suitable path.

Ron could feel that he was not far from a breakthrough.

………………

On his second to last day in solitary confinement, Ron completed his usual morning meditation.

Nearly two weeks of isolation from the world had brought his mental strength to an unprecedented new height.

This barren and closed environment actually allows him to focus more on exploring his inner world.

When he sank into the space of consciousness, the basic rune composed of three arcs had become extremely clear, almost feeling tangible.

Every arc is trembling slightly, and every node is emitting a soft light.

Ron could feel that he seemed to be standing at a critical point, and with just a slight push, he could break through the invisible barrier.

He took a deep breath and focused all his attention on the rune.

Unlike previous mechanical manipulations, this time, he tried to resonate with the runes and completely integrate his consciousness into them.

At that moment, Ron suddenly understood - the essence of basic meditation is not to control the runes, but to become the runes.

With this realization, the runes within his consciousness began to vibrate violently, emitting an unprecedented radiance. His spiritual energy seemed to have found its most suitable flow, surging like a flood.

【Basic Meditation Breakthrough! 】

[Basic Meditation Experience + 1]

[Basic Meditation (Beginner 99/100) → Basic Meditation (Proficient-max)]

[Additional features obtained:
Spiritual Flow (When switching to a higher-level meditation method, the experience value can be directly retained to the proficiency level)]

For basic meditation, it seems that reaching proficiency is the limit, and he felt a little regretful.

But the breakthrough did not stop there. Ron felt that the mental power in his body was undergoing an unprecedented qualitative change.

The spiritual forces that were originally scattered are now spontaneously reorganizing according to some mysterious rules, forming a more stable and purer energy structure.

In the space of consciousness, streams of light began to flow out from the runes, interweaving into a web in his world of consciousness, forming a brand new mental force field.

This change not only occurred internally, Ron's perception ability was also rapidly improving.

Every detail of the confinement room, even the faint energy fluctuations outside the wall, were clearly reflected in his perception.

【Qualitative Transformation of Mental Power Completed】

【Spirit: 1.6→2.0】

[Strength Level Upgrade: Knight Squire → Elementary Apprentice]

The value of his mental strength crossed the threshold of 2.0, which meant that he had officially reached the standard of a junior apprentice.

The change is not just a numerical increase, but also a qualitative leap in strength.

His consciousness became unusually clear, the speed and breadth of his thinking were greatly enhanced, and even his perception of the outside world became sharper than ever before.

Even more surprising was that Ron suddenly found himself able to feel an unprecedented ability

——Spiritual power is no longer just energy circulating in the body, but can extend outward in a wave-like manner, causing substantial impact on living organisms.

Is this the mind-interference ability that Marcus used on him that day?

Ron tentatively released a small amount of mental power, feeling it flow in the air.

The feeling is strange and unfamiliar, as natural as breathing, yet full of freshness.

Under his control, his mental power easily formed a weak interference wave that radiated to the surroundings.

"I see."

Ron whispered to himself that this ability did not actually need to be learned deliberately, but was an instinct that would naturally be mastered when the mental strength reached a certain level.

Just as babies do not need to learn how to swallow, wizard apprentices will naturally learn how to release mental power outward.

The instinctive ability of mental interference is extremely terrifying for most extraordinary professionals who do not cultivate their mental power, and is enough to easily disrupt the other party's thinking.

But for opponents who are also apprentices, the specific effect depends on the difference in mental strength between the two sides.

In the space before him, a translucent information panel automatically appeared at this moment:
【Mental strength reaches 2.0√】
