Ancient Wizards: A Little Progress Every Day

Just as Dago was blowing from beyond the floating island in the sky, clearing his mind of all his chaotic thoughts.

Suddenly, they heard the sound of wings flapping overhead.

Dago looked up and saw a brightly colored parrot with vibrant feathers flapping its wings and flying in through the French windows. It landed on the ground and gracefully transformed into a young man wearing a winged robe.

"What's wrong, Steele?"

Dago tidied up the things on the table and calmly asked the young man in front of him.

Steele is a being similar to the giant spider Abochild, both being wizards whose souls now reside in another body.

It is said that Steele was a powerful illusion wizard in his lifetime. After his physical body was damaged beyond repair, his soul was transferred to the magical beast, the Seven-Colored Parrot, by the previous tower master.

As for the previous tower master, Dago also learned a thing or two from Steele.

The previous Ring Master was Undine's older brother, who was incredibly powerful and had even advanced to the fourth ring. However, when he went out to travel the world, he completely lost contact with the Ring, and nearly a hundred years have passed since then.

"The tower master invites you up to discuss matters concerning your cultivation."

Steele told Dago with a grin that he had always acted as the tower master's mouthpiece in the Silver Tower.

"Okay, I understand."

Dago nodded, stood up, and then followed Steele to the top of the tower.

As before, Undine seemed to be always busy.

However, this time she was standing on the lab bench at the other end of the long table, and it seemed that she was studying the blood that had been taken from Dago.

"Dago, you've come!"

Sensing Dago's arrival, Undine stopped her research, gently raised her hand, and her powerful mental field instantly calmed all the chaotic atmosphere and energy fluctuations in the room.

Today, she was wearing a pair of silver-rimmed glasses, which made her look much more mature and intellectual.

"The mysterious ancient aura in your bloodline is truly perplexing. It doesn't seem to be the power of any known Ancient Pillar. It's a mysterious Ancient Pillar that has never been seen before."

Undine's first words to Dargo were words of helplessness.

Dago's own understanding is that he is the jinchūriki of an ancient pillar of the spirit world, but he doesn't know which spirit world boss he is.

Such great beings existing in the spirit world have always been the research target of wizards, although the results have been minimal.

Deciphering the bloodline of the Jinchuriki Dago was an extremely difficult task, but the complete lack of results clearly made Undine feel somewhat discouraged.

Dago was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected that the Sea of ​​Despair within his mental space was connected to a certain great ancient pillar.

His predecessor had only mistakenly drunk a bottle of inferior potion, which resulted in an ancient spirit residing in his spiritual space.

Then he fought a battle with the system that he had come from when he transmigrated, and both of them were severely injured, which benefited him, the outsider!

Damn, what kind of second-rate novel plot is this? Whatever, I'll just focus on doing my best and leave the rest to fate.

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic."

Undine gently removed her crystal glasses from her nose, her purple eyes fixed on Dargo, and said seriously, "The Silver Tower isn't good at ice magic, and they don't even have many ice wizards!"

"The main reason is that ice wizards belong to the category of nature wizards, and the growth of the soul of these wizards is closely related to the natural environment."

"As you know, ice wizards are mostly cold and aloof and don't like living in bustling cities. Of course, you're an exception. You're the most lively ice wizard I've ever met."

"For your next stage of training, I suggest you first go to the family wizarding forces under the Law Ring, Ice Fortress."

"A family of wizards?"

Dago's eyes flickered suddenly; he was somewhat sensitive to this word.

In addition, his mentor Rosalyn had advised him against pursuing the ice path, as most wizards on this path are influenced by the characteristics of the ice element.

It seems this information is true. No wonder he's hardly ever seen any ice wizards in the Thorn Ring. It seems I'm the odd one out.

"right."

Undine explained, "Ice Fortress is different from ordinary wizarding forces. It exists in the form of a wizarding family. Ice Fortress is covered in ice and snow all year round, and the wizards living there mostly specialize in ice magic, making it a very suitable place for your training."

"The core secret realm of Mirror Forest will officially open in four months, and you will inevitably represent the Law Ring in this exploration."

Undine looked at Dago with some concern and whispered, "Once you enter the core secret realm, the situation will be completely different. You will be facing top wizarding geniuses from different wizarding forces, possibly even more powerful than the Magic Ring, and you will be competing with them for opportunities."

"Dago, you have great talent and your strength is quite good among your peers, but you lack the time and experience to accumulate experience. There is still a big gap between you and those truly top-tier wizard geniuses from major powers."

"Once you arrive at Ice Castle, you can look for a third-circle wizard named Avery Huntington. The Huntington family is a well-known wizarding family in Ice Castle, so he shouldn't be too hard to find."

As Undine spoke, a white figure emerged from beneath her robes, fluttering its wings and gently flying towards Dago like a white dove.

When it landed in Dago's hands, he looked down and realized it was a letter. The envelope had a silver seal and a violet stamp that belonged only to Undine.

"Although Avery and I have lost contact and haven't visited each other in a long time, we are still friends. Take this letter of introduction to him, pay him a reasonable fee, and he will arrange everything for you."

At the same time, a black leather bag floated slowly toward him, carrying faint fluctuations of spatial runes.

"Everything you might need is in the storage pouch I just gave you. In three days, take the commercial airship from the tower to White Stone Castle, then head to Ice Castle. It will take ten days to get there by boat."

Undine paused for a moment, then continued, "But no matter how well you cultivate on this trip, you need to return in time. You can only stay in Ice Castle for a maximum of two and a half months, otherwise you will miss the opportunity to be among the first to explore Mirror Forest."

"Understood, Tower Master, I will not let you down."

Dago nodded solemnly, put away the letter Undine had given him, it seemed that he would be returning to his days of asceticism for the foreseeable future.

Undine smiled at him with satisfaction. "Dago, do your best. As long as you bring glory to the Silver Tower, you will be rewarded handsomely."

It seems the tower master values ​​the glory of reviving the Silver Tower very much! Dago made this assessment in his mind.

Dargo bowed to Undine and left, returning to his own quarters.

Sitting in front of the huge crystal floor-to-ceiling window on the top floor of the main castle, Dagger took out the two items that Undine had given him. Trusting that he couldn't open them, he opened the storage bag to take a look.

All the necessary potions and magic stones were plentiful and abundant, even exceeding Dago's expectations by a large margin.

These were all things Undine had prepared for him to go out to study alone, things that might come in handy.

As Dago clutched the storage bag filled with things, he felt a strong sense of "motherly" care.
