I, a cultivator, have ended up in the wizarding world.

Chapter 157 Breakthrough Progress (Bonus Chapter for the Alliance Leader)

Satisfied, Jemin also thought about the issue of his physical enhancement again.

The Flame Lord could no longer provide enough training, and although there were other powerful beings in the Purgatory Sulfur Plane, finding suitable training subjects in such a vast plane was extremely inefficient.

He needs a more efficient and controlled training environment.

"Since it's difficult to find a solution outside, why not solve it internally?"

A thought struck Jemin, and he immediately asked the leader of the wizard construction team.

The other party naturally accepted this extra business with pleasure.

So Jemin paid an extra huge sum of points, which excited the lower-level wizards, to have a fully-equipped gravity training room installed for him deep inside the underground laboratory of the Golden Garden.

Several days later, a huge circular chamber made of a special alloy appeared at the deepest part of Jemin's underground laboratory.

The cabin is spacious inside, and the walls are covered with various rune circuits.

Jemin couldn't wait to step inside and give it a try.

"Activate, ten times gravity!" Jemin gave the command to the control system in the training room.

A buzzing sound immediately came from inside the cabin, and an invisible pressure descended instantly.

Jemin felt a sudden heaviness in his body, as if he were carrying a huge weight.

He moved his hands and feet, feeling his muscles tremble under the pressure, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"Very good, adjust to 1000 times gravity!" he continued to issue the command.

Gravity spiked again, and Jemin immediately felt difficulty breathing, his bones cracking, and his knees almost buckling.

He gritted his teeth, his muscles tensed, and relied on the powerful physique brought by the Body Tempering Method to hold on.

Sweat instantly soaked his clothes and dripped to the ground.

"That's really impressive. A thousand times the gravity can produce such a good effect. The highest gravity field is tens of thousands of times... That's enough for me to use until I reach the Nascent Soul stage." Jemin thought to himself with admiration.

This extreme gravity not only continues to forge his muscles and bones, but also forces him to further master the exquisite control over his physical strength.

In addition to the gravity field, the training room is also equipped with a sophisticated multi-element attack array.

After exercising for a while, Jemin ended his experience with the gravity field and switched to trying the elemental attack array.

These magic circles do not directly output destructive attacks, but can release elemental energy flows of different intensities and attributes according to Jemin's settings, or simulate the attack patterns of various elemental creatures.

"Activate, fire element simulation!"

In an instant, the air inside the cabin became scorching hot.

Visible streams of fire elemental energy erupted from the runes on the wall, like whips of fire, gently yet continuously lashing at Jemin's body.

He could feel the penetration of every bit of flame energy, stimulating the resistance mechanism deep within his body against the flame.

"Water elemental erosion, lightning paralysis, wind blade cutting, earth elemental impact..." Jemin kept switching elemental modes.

Each elemental attack was like the most precise carving knife, performing microscopic "carving" on his body, allowing his body to slowly adapt to the attacks of various elements and enhance his resistance with the characteristics of the "Body Forging Method".

He can precisely adjust the training intensity and element types according to his own needs to achieve the long-term goal of resistance to all elemental damage.

From then on, Jemin's life became more regular and fulfilling.

For a period of time afterward, he was almost completely immersed in the rhythm of studying and improving himself at the same time.

Every day, they undergo high-intensity physical training in the gravity training room to continuously explore their body's potential.

Then he returned to the lab and threw himself into various research projects.

Occasionally, he would go to that dormant volcano, activate the formation, and collect the newly generated malevolent energy.

Under the protection of the magic array, the dormant volcano became a stable source of malevolent energy.

Sometimes, when he was too tired from research, he would also use his flying talisman artifact to search other areas of the Purgatory Sulfur Plane to see if there were any new sources of malevolent energy, or to discover more strange species and minerals.

That day, after collecting evil energy from the extinct volcano, Jemin checked his inventory.

To his surprise, he discovered that after months of continuous collection, he had accumulated a considerable amount of malevolent energy from the extinct volcano.

In addition to the flower demons he had been collecting in the Golden Garden, the demonic energy he now possessed had reached a considerable level.

Jemin stroked his chin; he knew it was time to begin a new round of refining.

Back in the laboratory, he carefully considered the vast collection of books provided by the Great Dao Library, and finally selected a method for crafting a special protective treasure that he believed best suited his current needs.

This treasure is called "Mysterious Red Dust Barrier," and it belongs to a unique protective technique within the cultivation system.

According to the records of the Great Dao Book Pavilion, this treasure is semi-permanent.

It is not a physical entity; once successfully crafted, it will become an invisible protective barrier that constantly surrounds and protects the user's body.

This treasure itself has no other abilities, only one function: to resist all kinds of curses and calculations. This treasure is mainly made from various chaotic evil spirits and worldly energy.

Once the treasure is formed, these malevolent forces and worldly energy will act like two intertwined chains, forming an indestructible protective net around the user's body.

The principle behind the Xuan Gang Red Dust Barrier's resistance to curses and calculation-based spells is quite simple.

If an enemy wants to cast a curse or divination on the user of a treasure, regardless of the type of spell, they must establish a connection with the target.

With the Xuan Gang Red Dust Barrier, a conceptual material that is intangible and without substance, protecting the surroundings, any spell that wants to produce a real effect must first break through this layer of protective energy and red dust.

However, during the breakthrough process, the evil energy and worldly energy contained in the Xuan Gang Red Dust Barrier will erode the caster in the opposite direction!
...It's like creating a cesspool around yourself.

Of course, this protection comes at a cost.

In the process of resisting and countering spells, the internal energy and mortal aura of the treasure will be continuously consumed.

If too much energy is consumed, the treasure itself will disintegrate and collapse due to energy depletion.

However, its advantage lies in the fact that it can restore its state by continuously replenishing the evil energy and worldly energy, thereby achieving semi-permanent protection.

After preparing for half a month, Jieming began to refine this protective treasure.

He first put the various collected evil energies into the furnace he made for preliminary refining and fusion, transforming them into the evil energy needed to refine the Xuan Gang Red Dust Barrier.

This process requires extremely high control over mental strength; if one is not careful, the mixed evil energy will backfire on them.

Fortunately, Jemin was rich and powerful, so he simply used adamantite to create a thick, fully protective armor to wear on his body.

There were occasional leaks during the refining process, but thanks to the refined gold, it was not significantly affected.

Immediately afterwards, he extracted the most chaotic part of the remaining mortal energy in his body and channeled it into the already refined Qi.

At this point, the protective treasure is almost 80% complete; all that remains is to add a few more restrictions to complete it.

After all, this is not a magic weapon, but a consumable item similar to a talisman, which is extremely easy to make.

So Jemin couldn't help but have some new ideas.

According to the refining methods in the Great Dao Book Pavilion, the completed protective treasure uses external spiritual energy as its driving energy to maintain the operation of the Qi of the Gang Sha and the Qi of the Mortal World.

But the wizarding world has no spiritual power, only elemental power, and Jemin wanted to see if he could replace the driving energy source.

Referring to the techniques he had developed when he modified the Body Tempering Method, and combining them with the results of his research on talismanic artifacts, Jemin quickly found the talismans related to energy supply in these restrictions.

Replacing it with runes that absorb external elements is not enough; the elemental power absorbed by the restriction must be transformed into energy that can be "recognized" and "driven" by the Qi of the Gang Sha and the mortal world.

Jemin took a deep breath to calm himself, knowing that this was the real key point.

At this point, we need to rely on his recent research findings... well, it's more accurate to call it an idea than research.

Jemin cautiously extended his mental energy, guiding the elemental power that was being absorbed by the restriction to circulate along a special trajectory.

He then carefully guided the purified Qi and mortal energy, weaving them through the restrictions like weaving silk threads.

Elemental power surged in like living water, creating a unique resonance with the malevolent energy and the mortal world's energy.

At first, the two completely different energy systems repelled each other, emitting faint tremors.

Jemin's forehead was sweating slightly as he continuously adjusted the frequency of the runes and changed the energy injection pattern.

Until a certain moment, all the feelings of rejection disappeared.

The sharpness of the fierce energy and the resilience of the mortal world are perfectly integrated, and what drives them is the elemental power of the wizard.

Strictly speaking, it is the elemental power that is transformed into spiritual energy!

That special operating method was none other than the trajectory of the internal Qi cultivation method that Jieming imitated!

The most distinctive feature of this protective amulet is its close coexistence with the user, and the prerequisite for such close coexistence is that the two must have enough similarities.

This means that by using the power of evil spirits, worldly energy, and restrictions, it is possible to simulate an environment similar to the human body to some extent.

With a "human body", it is certainly possible to simulate the operation of martial arts techniques!

The entire restriction emitted a dazzling light, which then subsided, and the restriction itself began to slowly disintegrate, transforming into wisps of energy that merged into the core of the Qi and the mortal energy.

When all the light and ripples subsided, there was no physical object left in Jeming's hand.

The moment the Xuan Gang Red Dust Barrier was successfully crafted, it transformed into an invisible protective barrier, like a second skin, constantly protecting Jieming's body.

He could feel that it resonated perfectly with his soul, as if it were a part of him.

He closed his eyes, sensing the treasure. It existed in a state between reality and illusion, occupying no space and showing no physical form.

The most distinctive feature of this treasure is that once activated, it can freely absorb external energy and maintain its operation on its own, allowing the user to sustain its existence for a long time without worrying about energy depletion.

However, for Jemin, the most important thing was that he verified his idea during the refining process!
Simply put, as long as he can simulate the human body environment and imitate the operation of the cultivation technique, even if he doesn't understand the internal logic and technical principles of the technique, he can still transform external elemental power into spiritual energy by imitation!
This means that from now on, he will have more ideas that can be unleashed!
