Wizards: Starting with Synthetic Gems

Chapter 722 The Reverse Refinement Method Belonging to King Otto!
Locke's left hand produced a phantom image of a second-ring magical artifact. This artifact was the bronze cauldron that King Otto had given him. After the bronze cauldron flew out, it immediately fell to the ground and quickly grew larger, turning into a small mountain that directly crushed the large number of rain mantises.

A large number of rain mantises were crushed by this magical artifact, and the rain flowers shattered.

After they died, their spirituality transformed into a torrent and was absorbed into the bronze cauldron. Then, a flame appeared inside the bronze cauldron, which was the primordial fire.

As Locke became a second-ring wizard, he was able to fully unleash the power of the Primal Flame. From the perspective of a second-ring wizard, the Primal Flame was so powerful because it contained the original state of the power of the plane, that is, the primordial power.

In other words, a first-circle potion master who possesses the Primal Flame is using some of the characteristics of a second-circle wizard by leveraging the rare magical item, the Primal Flame, which is beyond their level.

Locke recalled the King Otto he had seen in the Historical Monument Spell. The King Otto had passed on the method of reversing potions to him, hoping that he could make his most important invention shine in future generations.

This is the moment to fulfill my promise.

Locke tapped the bronze cauldron three times with his fingers, and an extremely complex spell model appeared inside the cauldron. This spell model was in the shape of a person, with three parts, each with a ring.

Then, on this complex magical model, a phantom 'person' made of spirits appeared.

Meanwhile, in Golden Crown Mountain, Little Peach Mountain, and the Gate of Hell, the wizards of Golden Crown Mountain are fighting against the dark wizards of the Twin Demon Realms. The two sides exchanged blows, unleashing countless spells in a fierce battle, showcasing a multitude of exquisite magics.

Meanwhile, Ellen Fox, a second-circle wizard from the Twin Demon Realms, looked towards the battlefield on the first-circle wizards' side, his expression strange.

He noticed that the wizard shoes worn by the wizards on Golden Crown Mountain were pure magical plant wizard shoes, yet they were very effective.

These wizard shoes are almost on par with those designed by the most outstanding wizard shoe shops in the Cloudze Wetlands Alliance.

The Snow-capped Pineapple Wizard Shoes, due to the Pixiu angle fractal constraint equation, the gland root sac energy-locking structure, and the presence of agave ketone bodies, are a pair of pure magical plant wizard shoes with excellent magical plant characteristics. On the battlefield, they can greatly accelerate the speed of the Golden Crown Mountain wizards.

This resulted in the first-ring dark wizards of the Twin Demon Realms, who should have had an advantage in speed, finding themselves at a disadvantage in terms of speed.

Thus, even if a dark wizard could defeat a first-ring wizard from Mount Golden Crown, they would find that the opponent could use the speed-up function of the wizard's shoes to forcibly escape.

A pair of wizard shoes can have a significant impact on the course of a battle.

Fortunately, at this moment, only a first-ring wizard on Mount Golden Crown has such a pair of wizard shoes.

Moreover, the dark wizards of the Twin Demon Realm attempted to steal the wizard shoes using the Twin Siphon Organs, only to discover that the design of those wizard shoes was extremely ingenious, designed entirely to limit the magical abilities of the dark wizards of the Twin Demon Realm.

The Snow-capped Pineapple Wizard Shoes are perfect; they prevent first-ring dark wizards from stealing them successfully, and only second-ring dark wizards will be able to do so.

But for second-circle dark wizards, they don't need to use the Twin Siphon Organs to deal with the first-circle wizards of Golden Crown Mountain.

Therefore, this war was a very good experience for the first-ring wizards of Golden Crown Mountain.

A first-ring power wizard who had lost the battle, stepping on a pair of large snow-capped pineapples, left two icy tracks on the ground. He then glided across the ground as if ice skating, the leaves of the large snow-capped pineapples dancing beneath his feet, constantly accelerating his movement.

Meanwhile, the dark wizards of the Twin Demon Realms were chasing after him, but they couldn't keep up with his speed and missed their chance to fight.

A group of second-ring dark wizards were sent to deal with the battle on the first-ring side. When the second-ring dark wizards saw this, they all looked displeased.

"What's going on? The wizard shoes from Yunze Wetlands have made another breakthrough. They've stopped making magical artifact wizard shoes and started making magical plant wizard shoes instead?"

"Technological approaches need to be iterated to keep up with the most advanced products. How come those wizard shoes, which are only at the first level, are so effective the first time they appear?"

Second-ring dark wizard Ellen Fox said in a deep voice, "This means that behind those wizard shoes, there is at least one breeding genius hiding behind them, who, with a moment of inspiration, has surpassed the breakthroughs that many wizards have made day and night."

"But this is not stable."

"It is highly dependent on one's talent. I remember that the White Wizards' Shop Alliance hated this kind of unstable innovation."

Ellen Fox suddenly made her move, using her Twin Siphon Organs on the power mage from Golden Crown Mountain. The next moment, she forcibly stole one of the mage's wizard shoes, leaving the power mage to retreat quickly on the remaining shoe on his left foot.

Ellen Fox looked at the large snow-capped pineapple wizard shoes that had appeared in his left hand, and he saw a name on them: Augustus.

The next moment, he forcefully crushed the wizard's shoe, and the Great Snow-capped Pineapple immediately withered and its roots rotted. "So it was the wizard's shoe he designed. Locke Augustine."

The other second-ring dark wizards immediately looked at him. "Locke Augustine? Never heard of that name before."

"I think I've heard of this name before. He's a researcher from Golden Crown Mountain who's recently gained some fame, but he's only a first-ring wizard. So if you guys haven't heard of him, you probably wouldn't pay much attention even if you heard the name before."

Ellen Fox Wizard said, "I have met that breeder."

A dark wizard chuckled, "Hmm? We've met before? So he didn't have anything stolen from him by the infamous leopard-stealing wizard Ellen Fox?"

Ellen Fox smirked. "Just a first-ring wizard, even with some talent, he's still just a first-ring wizard. These geniuses from Golden Crown Mountain all have one bad habit: arrogance. It's a common ailment among those hypocritical white wizards."

"He did indeed have something important stolen from him."

From the large mouth in Ellen Fox's left palm came a tongue, and from that tongue emerged a moon.

It was the magic that Locke had stolen from him back then: Full Moon Growth!

The predecessor of the predecessor of Evolution Moon!

Wizard Ellen Fox chuckled, “I remember the effect of this Full Moon Growth spell. It can instantly elevate magical plants exposed to its light, causing them to grow rapidly. It’s a spell that can change the growth rate of magical plants. Once I use it, I can immediately disable the first-ring magical plant wizard shoes worn by those White Wizards of Golden Crown Mountain.”

"Heh, he himself didn't expect that his wizard shoes would have such a huge flaw because of his own magic. If all the wizard shoes were ruined in an instant, I think his newly established Augustus Wizard Shoes brand would probably lose all its reputation."

"We might even face huge compensation payments."

Ellen Fox Wizard wore a wicked smile.

The other two second-ring dark wizards exchanged a glance and burst into laughter.

At the same time, Ellen Fox said, "This way, we can quickly resolve the certain victory that Golden Crown Mountain achieved in the first stage due to those wizard shoes."

However, the full moon growth is merely a blueprint for the immense magic that Locke barely completed during the first stage of crystallization; at this moment, it is still very rudimentary.

Therefore, it is impossible for such a full moon to directly cover the battlefield and lock onto the first-ring magical plant wizard shoes of five hundred first-ring wizards at once.

First-ring wizards are not the kind of races under the Disc Creatures who are born with first-ring power; every bit of their power is acquired through research and learning.

Perhaps second-circle wizards are weak, but they are by no means powerless, nor are they lambs to the slaughter.

Therefore, there is only one way to solve their problem using a full moon growth.

Ellen Fox, the leopard-stealing wizard, raised his left hand and channeled the immense magic within his Twin Siphons into the Full Moon Growth in his hand.

The ultimate magic of every dark wizard in the Twin Realms is the Twin Siphon Organ.

The ultimate magic is the wizard's second soul, the second source of magic. However, the wizard of the Demon Realm has already devoted everything to the Twin Demon Realms, so naturally he would not have the spare power to create a second ultimate magic.

Their twin siphon organs are their greatest magic.

It's just that each dark wizard uses the same ultimate spell in different ways.

At this very moment, the leopard-stealing wizard Ellen Fox transferred all the magic stored within his twin siphon organs to the full moon's growth.

A gigantic moon appeared on the battlefield.

Many wizards from Golden Crown Mountain looked up, staring in astonishment at that corner of the battlefield.

Is this... the botanical magic of the life sciences?
Was it used by a dark wizard?

No, he must have stolen it.

At this moment, many wizards of Golden Crown Mountain had a bad feeling.

Ellen Fox, the wizard, burst into laughter. "Locke, you yourself handed me your weakness. So..."

His expression changed slightly.

Wait a minute, something's not right.

Ellen Fox felt a sudden shock, because he realized that the full moon growth was almost a gift from Locke.

And Locke sold his products during the Demon World War, so did he really not expect this to happen?

At this moment, the wizard shoes worn by many wizards on the battlefield suddenly flashed with a magical glow.

These are spell models that Locke placed in these wizard shoes in advance after obtaining permission from the Golden Crown Mountain.

At the same time, Wizard Ellen Fox's expression suddenly changed drastically, because the moment he poured most of his magical pressure into the full moon after it grew, a lunar eclipse suddenly occurred.

The full moon-like growth seemed to slowly close its eyes, like a lunar eclipse. At the same time, the magical energy he had poured into the full moon-like growth suddenly disappeared.

“This is… a scam!” Wizard Ellen Fox roared.

Because he realized that the moment he used Locke's Full Moon Growth, the Full Moon Growth was suddenly hijacked, and then instead of a lunar eclipse, the entire moon disappeared.

Locke stole all the energy contained within the full moon's growth.

One characteristic of the Evolution Moon is that wherever the moonlight is, that's where the moon can appear.

The moonlight of the Full Moon Growth and the moonlight of the Evolution Moon are both Locke's moonlight. Therefore, the moment he uses Full Moon Growth is also the moment Locke can descend upon the Evolution Moon here.

At the same time, Locke used his pre-arranged plan to allow his own Evolution Moon to descend and devour the growth of the same type of full moon, thus completing an energy hijacking. He then temporarily drained all the moonlight from the Evolution Moon that had descended there.

Therefore, it became a scene resembling a lunar eclipse.

This also meant that Ellen Fox could have stolen the Moon of Evolution that Locke had placed here, but because Locke had drained the energy from the Moon of Evolution, Ellen Fox was unable to steal it.

After all, Locke had transferred all the capital from the entire moon.

In a flash, Ellen Fox's mind raced, and he finally realized that he, a dark wizard thief, had actually been successfully scammed by a white wizard researcher.

He was instantly enraged. "Damn white wizard, I'm going to court..."

wrong……

How dare a petty thief sue a researcher?

Meanwhile, in the Silent Dimension, Locke directly extracted all the energy of a black wizard with 15,000 magic pressure and used the Magic Pressure Reversal Technique to put it into a bronze cauldron and refine it into spiritual energy.

Normal potion-making extracts energy and spirituality from various materials, while reverse potion-making extracts materials from energy and spirituality.

At this moment, all this energy transforms into the spirituality of 'human beings', and the spirituality of 'human beings' automatically forms the pattern of 'human beings'. This energy and spirituality continuously circulate within the spirituality of 'human beings'.

Two energy metabolism pathways were formed.

Where energy metabolism pathways pass, energy upgrades and changes occur, and then the two energy metabolism pathways connect with each other, head to tail.

Three energy wheels were formed along the two energy metabolism pathways. Each of the three energy wheels restored a portion of the energy spirituality, and then the three energy wheels merged into one.

The energy was released three times, a reduction reaction that even Locke couldn't understand.

Then, a completely blank and spiritually pure potion of zero appeared inside the bronze cauldron, transforming into a jar of rippling blue waves.

At this moment, both the players inside the competition venue and the spectators outside the venue watched this scene in astonishment.

Because of the special setup of the Silent Holy Grail Tournament, the audience could not see the entire process of Locke's reverse magic suppression. The key details of the spell models and the crucial refining steps were all hidden.

It's like watching a TV show; you can only see that the person has completed the task and the general framework, but you can't see how it was done, like watching a class or demonstration.

This way, it can only serve as a reference and learning resource, while also protecting the contestant's privacy and research findings.

But at this moment, many people realized that Locke had just used a potion-making technique that, while it was potion-making, did not seem to be a common potion-making technique.

Many wizards were whispering among themselves, discussing whether this was a unique innovation of Golden Crown Mountain in potion-making. They had never heard of Golden Crown Mountain being so skilled in potion-making!

The seven Japanese environmental assessment committee members exchanged ideas. "Have you ever seen this refining method before?"

"No, absolutely not. This seems to be a method of potion making that goes against the general principles of potion making. I just don't know what it can produce. If I could see the whole process, I might be able to figure something out, but right now I can only see a few unimportant steps."

"Forget it, if we actually saw something this good, Jinmianshan would be asking us for patent licensing fees."

At this moment, the Silent Witch's eyes flickered slightly, while the Truth Wizard of the Green Steel City Jungle laughed and said, "Reverse Refining Technique, I remember that the Origin Land in the Central Boundary only recently started this kind of potion-making. What's going on? Has this little guy been in contact with the Origin Land? This kind of discipline is one of the current strategic development directions of the Origin Land. There's no reason for it to be authorized to an ordinary researcher from the Cloud Marsh Wetland in the Eastern Boundary."

The Silent Witch did not speak.

As a breeder, she wasn't particularly interested in the so-called emerging field of potions.

At this moment, the wizards in the spectator arena heard the explanation from the Wizard of Truth of the Hand of the Jungle, and their enthusiasm subsided slightly.

For a moment, they even thought that Mount Golden Crown was going to use this competition to showcase their innovations in potions, just like Boniface University had done.

But if this is an original creation of the Central Region Leader Wizard Land, then it's different.

Locke simply used a relatively advanced potion-making technique.

The seven judges of the Sun Ring Wizards breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the words of the Truth Wizard of the Hand of the Jungle. After all, this special reverse cultivation method could almost become the starting point for a new third-level discipline.

If this is indeed Jin Mianshan's doing, then it's a huge undertaking, indicating that Jin Mianshan is shifting its academic focus.

This will have a significant impact on the landscape of Yunze Wetland and may even cause major fluctuations in the stock market.

They all have money invested in the stock market of Yunze Wetland.

But since research has already been conducted in the place of origin, this matter is not as serious as they thought.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the four squads, the Star Ring Wizard of Storm Tower had been silent with a gloomy face the whole time because Wizard Smith had been kidnapped by the people of the Twin Demon Realms.

The Moon Ring Witch of Bonifacius University looked at the wizard Chad Schultz with a frown. Bonifacius University had been focusing its resources on Potions, and if Mount Golden Crown really made a breakthrough in Potions, it would have a serious impact on Bonifacius.

Fortunately, this new potion-making method, which looks very special and seems quite useful, has been popular in the Central Region for some time.

Even so, it still has a certain impact on Boniface University, because among the seven top universities in Yunze Wetland, Boniface's potion-making is among the best. However, Boniface University's potion-making department has not yet introduced this novel potion-making method, while wizards on Golden Crown Mountain have already learned it.

This puts pressure on Boniface University.

The Moon Witch asked Chad Schultz, "Is this Locke Augustine your Golden Crown Mountain's trump card?"

Wizard Chad Schultz paused for a moment, then, not wanting to lose face, affirmed, "Yes, he is our trump card."

Rush, the leader of Quinnjoll, glanced at the wizard Chad.

Meanwhile, in the audience area of ​​Golden Crown Mountain, Wizard Fisher had a strange expression. "Reverse potion-making, I read about it in 'Origins,' it seems to be a very high-level potion-making method. Anyway, the Origins people are touting this potion-making method as if it's the future of the wizarding world."

"Locke's refining method should be the reverse refining method. But where did he learn this cutting-edge technology? Since he learned it, why didn't he report it to the academy? Or did the academic committee already know about it?"

The Sun Ring Wizard of the Academic Committee coughed. “This…”

Wizard Fisher asked, "Moreover, this seems to be different from the several reverse-refining potion recipes and refining methods announced by the Origin Land."

One of the potions wizarding instructors from the Senate whispered, "I don't think this is some kind of learning or inheritance; it's more like an independent discovery. If it really is an independent discovery, then it should be reported to the academy immediately. Although, even if it is an independent discovery, it won't bring much honor, since the first honor is only given to the first person to publish it."

In the wizarding world during the modern magical age, the academic rule is that the first person to publicly publish valid findings will receive the greatest honor.

If someone discovers something but doesn't publish it, the honor and resources will still go to the person who published it first.

Some people make discoveries later, but if they are independent discoveries, they can share some of the honors and resources.

Therefore, the wizarding world is different now than before; no one dares to hide their secrets anymore.

If you have anything good, publish it as soon as possible to prevent someone else from getting there first and publishing it for you, then all your research will have been for nothing.

Now, the Reverse Refining Method has been developed for a long time in its place of origin and has established a three-level discipline in the direction of the Reverse Refining Method of the Life School of Magical Medicine. So even if it is discovered independently, it will not be able to get any benefits.

But it does allow Jinmianshan to at least peek at this cutting-edge research.

The Sun Ring Wizard on the Academic Committee whispered, "Let's not guess. We can just ask Locke directly after he leaves the arena."

In the Silent Dimension, Locke was unaware that his use of the Reverse Refinement Technique had caused a series of disputes.

However, the Reverse Refinement Method was only taught to him by King Otto, while the Moon Cultivation Method that he was about to use was his own creation!
Although the Moon Cultivation Method is not as good as the Reverse Refining Method, which is a revolutionary refining method for potion making, the Moon Cultivation Method is just a niche cultivation method for individual breeders.

It does not have the disruptive power to transform the field of breeding; it can only be considered a unique breeding method within the broader field of breeding.

But this is entirely my own achievement, the result of my hard work as a wizard in this world, in botany and breeding.

Only then can one truly demonstrate their magical skill level!
