Wizard: I have ten trillion nanomachines

Deep within the wizard's tower, in a specially designed training room, thick mercury filled the entire space, and Rhine stood naked in this pool of heavy metal.

This is an extreme cultivation method designed by Luo Kunlun to break through the bottleneck of his bloodline. It uses mercury to compress the body and erode the muscles, forcibly stimulating the potential of the bloodline with external force.

Similar facilities include high-temperature lava chambers and supergravity fields, all designed for bloodline advancement.

Unfortunately, the higher the bloodline activation level, the more difficult it becomes to improve. Without this kind of "hard work," one will likely stagnate for a long time.

So three years ago, Lokunlun created these facilities to stimulate Rhine's body with extreme external force.

Ordinary creatures, even those with bodies made of iron, might not be able to withstand the ravages of these external forces, but fortunately, the Rhine has bloodlines.

Three years ago, when she first cultivated with extreme external force, her bloodline activation level reached 40%. Her extraordinary bloodline endowed her with a powerful body and soul and recovery ability, while the external force created by Luo Kunlun was definitely within a controllable range.

It can provide effective stimulation without causing immediate death.

Even if he is seriously injured, he can recover quickly with the help of Luo Kunlun and his own physique and bloodline abilities.

As her bloodline grew stronger, her body gradually resembled that of an ancient forest spirit.

Her figure became increasingly slender and graceful, her skin was so white it was almost transparent, and her appearance was exquisitely beautiful, surpassing the limits that ordinary people could reach.

This ethereal beauty, derived from extraordinary bloodlines, is one of the reasons why the Forest Elves were favored by ancient wizards. Regardless of gender, they are all exceptionally handsome, as if they were the most perfect creations of nature.

No matter the world, beautiful things always bring joy.

Of course, such appearance and physique also make them look frail.

Although they are highly talented in magic and medicine making and can command an entire forest to fight for them, they appear slender but are weak in strength and not good at close combat.

That's true, but that's relative to a first-level creature.

For creatures below the first ring, forest spirits can move at supersonic speeds, split mountains and shatter rocks with their fists and feet, blast buildings apart, and even breach cities and seize strongholds.

Having undergone various forms of training by Lokunlun, Rhine's body now possesses power exceeding what her bloodline naturally provides.

It's no exaggeration to say that Rhine could easily dominate with brute force alone, and with her bloodline abilities, those lower-level first-ring creatures might not be able to do anything to her.

At this moment, Rhine, inside the mercury pool, had his eyes tightly closed, his jaw clenched, and his forehead covered with fine beads of sweat.

Mercury kept squeezing her chest cavity, and the heavy metal seeped into her skin through her pores, bringing excruciating pain as if thousands of blades were cutting into her body.

It hurts, but it must be endured.

Pain is the beginning of strength.

Each extreme stimulation allows the bloodline potential to be released to the maximum extent, and the effect of one training session is comparable to ten or more days of ordinary hard training.

Ultimately, even without exceptional talent and background, one must at least possess great perseverance and seize great opportunities.

Time ticked by amidst the extreme pain, and Rhine's consciousness gradually blurred, with only the indomitable blood energy within his body stubbornly continuing to circulate.

She didn't know how much time had passed when she suddenly felt a slight sound coming from inside her body, as if an invisible shackle had been completely broken.

A purer and more powerful force surged from the depths of her bone marrow, spreading through her blood vessels to her entire body, constantly replenishing and fine-tuning her physical form. The damage caused by mercury erosion was also healing at a visible speed.

hum-

The mechanism in the training room was triggered, and the mercury in the pool was quickly drained away like the receding tide, revealing Rhine's soaking wet yet upright figure.

After ten days of rest and recuperation to stabilize his bloodline, Luo Kunlun arrived as scheduled.

A specially made needle was inserted into her vein, and pale green blood slowly flowed into the tube, shimmering with a lustrous sheen under the light.

"Not bad, another breakthrough in bloodline shackles." Luo Kunlun looked at the blood containing immense life force in the syringe, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes. "The current bloodline activation level has reached 70%."

After so many years of hard work and considerable expense, we have finally achieved results.

A 70% bloodline concentration is already very high in terms of completeness; you might not find a forest elf bloodline with this level of completeness anywhere else in the entire wizarding world.

The cost was considerable; the magic stones alone cost seven thousand.

The savings a formal wizard possesses are roughly this amount.

Afterwards, Luo Kunlun did not linger. After covering Rhine, who had fainted with a distorted expression, with a blanket, he returned to his top-floor training room with the precious blood.

He drew all the blood from the syringe into his body, concentrated his mental energy, and began to absorb the bloodline abilities and ancestral information contained within.

In the transmission of bloodlines, there are often some memories and knowledge of ancestors.

Some sorcerers who are well-versed in the art of bloodlines can even use special means to read the complete information of their bloodline ancestors from birth to death.

For the past six years, Luo Kunlun has been extracting Rhine's blood annually for analysis, and has already obtained most of its basic information and abilities.

"I wonder what new surprises this 70% bloodline concentration will bring." Luo Kunlun pondered, his consciousness sinking completely into the depths of his bloodline, like a diver exploring the deep sea of ​​memories.

The analysis continued, and familiar forest spirit knowledge and advanced abilities kept flooding into his mind, but these were not the focus of Luo Kunlun's attention.

He had already acquired these things in the past.

Analysis, continuously analyzing forward.

Luo Kunlun needs new skills and new knowledge.

Just as his consciousness reached the deepest part of his bloodline, wisps of emerald green light suddenly appeared before his eyes.

These lights flickered in the darkness like fireflies, drawn by his consciousness, gradually coalescing into a hazy mist of light.

When the light and mist condensed to their maximum, one could almost hear the faint sounds of seeds breaking through the soil and tender shoots sprouting.

The next second, the emerald green light mist suddenly exploded, and Luo Kunlun's consciousness seemed to be swept into the turbulent flow of time and space, instantly placing him in a strange illusion.

Before me lay a lush, pristine forest unlike any I had ever seen before. Towering ancient trees blocked out the sun, their trunks so thick that it would take dozens of people to encircle them. Glowing vines twined among the branches and leaves, and the ground was covered with strange, colorful flowers.

Various strangely shaped creatures roam through the forest.

The winged deer, like a plant fairy, exudes a pure natural aura, blending seamlessly into the forest.

Luo Kunlun's consciousness hovered in mid-air like an observer, watching these creatures emerge from the towering trees.

To be precise, it was "nurtured" by a large tree.

Those big trees are not ordinary plants, but living beings that contain tremendous vitality.

"Wait, these trees...are they really trees?" Luo Kunlun's consciousness suddenly rose, and his perspective instantly widened, trying to see the whole picture of this forest.

This sight sent shivers down his spine.

In the center of this dreamlike realm stands a colossal ancient tree that connects heaven and earth.

Its trunk is as thick as a continuous mountain range, and its bark is covered with ancient patterns etched by millions of years of wind and frost, as if recording the history of the entire world.

Its vast root system, like the whiskers of a dragon, penetrates the land and spreads to every corner of the world.

From the dark depths of the bottomless abyss, stretching all the way to the top of the sea of ​​clouds... countless thick branches extend in all directions, covering most of the world. Some branches even give rise to small ecosystems, and when the roots hang down to the sea of ​​clouds, they condense into silvery rainbow mist, nourishing the creatures below.

This ancient tree is as big as an asteroid!

He is firmly rooted in the center of the world, as if it were a miniature world.

All living things in this world, whether they are the flower spirits in the forest or the beasts on the ground, originated from the nurturing of this ancient tree.

Just like the Tide Lord in the Wizarding World, who uses his own will to reshape the world and make the environment adapt to his survival.

This ancient tree is the "ruler" of this world. With itself as the core, it nurtures life, builds the ecosystem, and transforms the entire world into its own domain of life.

The great trees that nurtured life were merely its countless branches.

At this very moment, from a branch of a tree, a kind of humanoid creature emerges, slender in form and naturally intelligent.

"So that's how it is... This is the source of the forest spirits." Luo Kunlun's consciousness suddenly realized.

Forest spirits are not products of natural evolution, but rather a race born from this sacred tree, thus possessing extraordinary abilities to communicate with nature and manipulate plants.

Using the abilities of his own scarlet cells, Luo Kunlun pieced together this fragment and obtained information from a distant past.

As this realization took hold, the illusion began to gradually dissipate.

Luo Kunlun began absorbing these new fragments, modifying his body.

He could feel that his perception of natural energy had greatly improved, and he could even vaguely communicate with the plants around him.

But these are not the most important things.

"You can do it like this...."

Lost in thought, Luo Kunlun went outside the tower.

Both feet stand firmly on the ground, while simultaneously being rooted to the earth.

The person's entire form is changing, as if it has transformed into a human-shaped ancient tree.

Rooted in the earth, absorbing its power, its roots spread continuously until they cover the entire world.

In addition, in this state, Luo Kunlun discovered that his life was only losing one-tenth of its original amount.

This is not only physical, but also spiritual.

However, his thinking speed is also only one-tenth of what it used to be.

"By reducing consumption and extending life in this way, it is equivalent to extending life tenfold."

"But once it takes root, my thinking becomes sluggish and I often find myself in a dormant state. This isn't suitable for me; I'm not a plant."

However, this ability is not useless to Luo Kunlun.

What would happen if you separated a part of your own flesh and blood, planted it as a seed, and absorbed the power of the earth?
