Wizards: Starting with Synthetic Gems

Chapter 484 The Essence of Ultimate Magic

As Grand Wizard Sura gritted his teeth, his body endured immense pressure with each step he took. He had walked those steps from the ground floor of the Hall of Magic to its entrance countless times before.

I never paid attention, I never stopped.

He thought it would be something he could easily do, but now, as he walks this path again, he finds that every step on this familiar road is incredibly difficult.

“The World Stone… Only when I obtain the World Stone and corrupt it will my ultimate magic be truly complete.” Archmage Sura gritted his teeth and said. He seemed to have thought of something and looked up at Locke, saying, “Locke, whether you are watching now or later, you will be witnessing my entire process of advancing to the second-circle wizard.”

“I’m telling you, I was wrong before. Although that guy Yuriel had some tricks up his sleeve and created a Child of Prophecy, even if he gathered all the luck of this plane, he still couldn’t defeat me.”

"I am the one who bestowed this plane with thirty Archmage Saints and more than ten thousand mages. This world is more complete because of me. I am so important to this world. This medium-sized plane, the smallest standard world, is like a pond. I have already occupied most of the pond. Even if all the remaining fortune were gathered together, how could they possibly contend with me?"

“I am a mage system in myself,” said Grand Wizard Sura. “I am the pinnacle of mages, and today I will become the God of Magic. In our world, a second-circle wizard is a second-generation transcendent, but I have consulted ancient texts. A first-circle wizard can essentially correspond to a demigod who has not ignited the divine fire but has already developed divinity, and whose divinity is sufficient to support him as a demigod.”

"A second-circle wizard corresponds to a true god who has ignited the divine fire but has not yet condensed a divine spark. That is not a world spirit, nor a spirit of faith worshipped by the world's natives, or some kind of elemental spirit, but a true god, a true god who has long since disappeared..."

“Therefore, a second-circle wizard is a god.” Grand Wizard Sura said with certainty, “I am a second-circle wizard in the world of truth, and in the mage plane, it is only right for me to call myself the god of magic.”

The great wizard Sura seemed to become extremely excited. He said, "My previous unease was completely wrong. I am about to succeed. You will witness my success."

Grand Wizard Sura gritted his teeth and finally reached the interior of the Hall of the Sorcerer. He pushed open the heavy door of the Hall of the Sorcerer, and the gate to that world seemed to be closing on him forever, thus exerting a force of resistance.

Not moving.

"Open for me!" Archmage Sura forcefully used all his power to crash against the world gate. In that instant, every life in the entire mage plane trembled and involuntarily looked in the direction where the world hall was descending. Every life felt uneasy.

Meanwhile, the soul of the great wizard Sura was further shattered during the struggle, but fortunately... the gate to the world finally opened.

'Boom~'

Behind the gate to the world is a stone that looks like a moon rock, surrounded by a golden holy ring. That is what the power of the world looks like after it has been forcibly reduced in dimension and materialized.

High Wizard Sura's eyes gleamed with extreme joy. "Hahahaha..."

"After years of painstaking effort, I have finally waited for this day. A hundred years of waiting has finally yielded today's harvest. I, Sura Plutak, will do my utmost to reform the Land of the Six Towers after becoming a second-circle wizard, so that the Land of the Six Towers can be freed from its rotten flesh and reborn."

High Wizard Sura walked over and placed his palm on the Worldstone. The Worldstone originally only appeared at the very core of the world, at the very bottom of the Wizarding Plane.

That's a difficult area to reach.

The Earth's core is extremely dangerous and cannot be easily reached, which is why it is necessary to indirectly force out the World Stone by using the method of [Summoning the World Hall].

In a sense, the Worldstone is the core of the entire Mage Plane, the earth's core.

Grand Wizard Sura decisively placed his palm on it. Unexpectedly, the World Stone, which had previously resisted him so strongly, was now not resisting him as much as he had anticipated. "That's it. The demon system has now been almost completely wiped out by me and is no longer a threat, while my mage system is thriving. No matter what tricks Yuriel may have up his sleeve, it's too late."

"I currently enjoy the greatest favor in this world, and I am almost equivalent to the spokesperson of the world's will. As the spokesperson, I will imprint my mark on this World Stone, pollute one-third of the World Stone with my soul, and put the polluted World Stone into the prototype of my great magic. In this instant, my great magic will be completed."

"To become a unique source of magical power that belongs only to me."

"That is, the characteristic great magic of a second-circle wizard, also known as the source of magic!"

"I will infuse a part of my split soul into the World Stone and combine the World Stone with the prototype of my ultimate magic. In that instant, my ultimate magic will become a split of my soul, an existence that, although not inside my soul, is indeed a part of my soul."

In reality, when Locke saw this scene, he immediately understood how the wizard civilization had surpassed it twice.

After surpassing the limit once, and after the permanent defensive field and the technique of increasing the upper limit of the soul shell were used and became ineffective, the method of creating a second soul to form the source of magic was adopted.

Thus, the ultimate magic becomes the wizard's second soul, just as his current abyssal energy and forest sanctuary can be used as external magical pressure to increase his own body.

But the relationship is even more mysterious.

Neither the energy of the abyss nor the sacred forest could help him break through the magic pressure beyond 9999.

However, as a second soul, Great Magic can achieve this.

When the magical pressure of one's own body is combined with the magical pressure of the second soul, the magical pressure can exceed 9999.

Locke instantly realized why the dark wizard Uriel had said that even for a second-circle wizard, the fact that one's own power could attack one's own power was still a problem, and that it needed to be resolved throughout the entire second-circle stage.

"In this way, it's as if a part of one's power has become somewhat separated from one's main body, which creates an opportunity to exploit."

"Of course, I don't fully understand what ultimate magic is yet, so the relationship between ultimate magic and the physical soul is probably closer than I think. Otherwise, wizards would definitely find other ways to achieve a second transcendence. Since everyone has chosen this method, it must be because it has special advantages."

"But from my current knowledge, I may be able to see things that those second-circle wizards cannot see in a lot of knowledge and information. There is always a certain degree of separation between the soul and the source of one's magic. This is an objective statement."

Locke paused the True Sight Crystal image. "But thinking about it carefully, it seems that Great Magic has an advantage. Great Magic is an artificial construct, an external source of magic, which means it is convenient to modify one's own Great Magic."

"All the technologies possessed by the wizarding civilization can be applied to Great Magic and modified without worrying that overly radical modifications will threaten the original body, or that too many modifications will cause problems to the original body."

"Any technological advancement can be immediately applied to one's own ultimate magic, with a very high margin for error. This is only the benefit I've seen so far; there should be other advantages I haven't yet discovered," Locke pondered. "But why can a wizard only possess one ultimate magic spell?"

"By the way, judging from this, it seems that Grand Wizard Sura is close to succeeding. What happened next?"
