Wizard: My skills can be upgraded indefinitely.

Seven days later, at dusk.

In the courtyard, thirteen teenagers sat cross-legged, their bodies enveloped in a pale silver halo.

Ashu still came to Ian's door, asking to join the group, and he himself joined the youth training team.

They were practicing breathing techniques to absorb the sparse primal energy in the air.

Ian stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over everyone like that of a hawk.

"Time's up."

The boys opened their eyes in unison, and the silver light gradually faded.

Ah Ku was the first to jump up, his face filled with barely suppressed excitement.

"Teacher! I...I've completed the rune cycle!"

Ian walked up to him and pressed his finger on the [Nascent Soul] rune on his shoulder blade.

Mental energy seeps in.

Sure enough, within A-Ku's body, the thirty-six runes had formed a complete cyclical network.

The primordial energy circulates smoothly through the meridians like a stream, and with each cycle, the flesh and blood solidify a little more.

"Very good." Ian nodded. "You're the first one."

He took out a small wooden box and handed it to A-Ku.

Inside the box was a milky-white crystal the size of a fingernail, which was a dust crystal. Although it was incomplete, the primordial energy it contained was enough for Aku to absorb for three days.

"Thank you, Teacher!" Ah Ku's voice trembled with excitement as he carefully accepted the gift.

"I'm done too!"

"And me!"

Immediately afterwards, two more teenagers stood up.

A burly boy named "Stone" and a thin boy named "Little Boat".

After examining the item, Ian also awarded it a Dust Crystal.

Although the remaining ten people have not completed the cycle, they are more than halfway through, and even the slowest one has connected twenty runes.

Even Ashu, who joined the team the latest, has caught up with his teammates, which shows that he is indeed exceptionally talented.

In just half a month.

With the aid of unlimited [Elemental Energy Tempering Potion], the cultivation speed of this group of teenagers was more than five times faster than that of ordinary rune learning apprentices!

Ian’s gaze swept over the thirteen young and resolute faces.

These were his brother's first group of men in this other world.

Although we are still weak now, as long as we have resources, techniques, and time...

They will eventually become a force to be reckoned with.

"Li Yao," Ian called out.

"Here!" The boy stepped forward quickly.

Under Ian’s personal guidance, Li Yao’s cultivation level is approaching the threshold of awakening.

His aura was now calm and his eyes were sharp; he was no longer the dirty, fleeing boy he once was.

"Starting tomorrow, you will lead them in practicing the 'Combined Attack Formation'."

Ian took out a simple array diagram.

"Practice in groups of three or four. Once you're proficient, I'll take you out of the city for real combat."

"Yes!" Li Yao took the array diagram and nodded vigorously.

Late at night, two weeks later.

Ian sat alone on the roof.

Sometime during the night, a corner of the gray clouds dispersed, revealing the deep night sky.

A few dim stars twinkled through the gaps in the clouds, casting a thin but pure starlight.

He took off his shirt, revealing his well-built upper body.

The Starfall Core pendant, tucked close to the skin at the chest, emitted a warm, silvery glow, echoing the stars in the sky.

For the past month, he has spent his days refining medicine, teaching teenagers, and dealing with the merchant alliance, while at night he has been working hard to break through his bottleneck.

His cultivation level, at the late stage of awakening (99%), has been honed to its peak.

At this moment, the starlight energy in his chest surged like boiling water, frantically assaulting the invisible barrier.

"It's time..."

Ian took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

Consciousness sank deep into the bloodstream.

There lies a vast, illusory starry sky, the source of the Star Guide's bloodline.

In the center of the phantom, a fragmented star imprint floats, exuding an ancient and weathered aura.

The outline of the brand is blurred, as if the edges have been worn away by time.

But at this moment, thanks to Ian's efforts over the past month to absorb starlight and temper his bloodline, the mark is slowly becoming clearer.

"Not enough..."

With a thought, Ian felt the Starfall Core in his chest suddenly become hot!

hum!

A surge of pure star power, as powerful as a river, burst forth from the pendant and flowed into his limbs and bones!

"Ugh!"

Ian groaned, and countless silver bloodline patterns instantly appeared on the surface of his skin.

The lines, like branching tree trunks, spread from the chest to the neck, arms, and back...

Ultimately, they intertwine behind the scenes, vaguely forming a fragmented star chart.

The stars in the sky seemed to be summoned.

Through the gaps in the clouds, those few stars that had been dim suddenly lit up.

Three visible silver beams pierced the night sky and fell straight down, enveloping Ian completely!

"boom!!!"

Deep in my mind, something seemed to explode.

The incomplete star imprint, under the infusion of immense stellar power, was finally completed with the last piece!

The moment the brand fully emerged, Ian "saw" its entirety.

It was a miniature, slowly rotating phantom of a galaxy.

At the center is a bright white star, surrounded by three planets orbiting along mysterious paths, and further away, sparse stardust swirls around.

Stars? Gravity!

Ian instantly understood.

The true core of the Star-Attracting bloodline is not the stars themselves, but the gravitational rules contained within their movement!

"Snap!"

The body's internal barriers ruptured immediately.

Late Awakening Stage (99%) → Early Formation Stage (1%)!

At the moment of breakthrough, the star map composed of bloodline patterns on Ian's back suddenly detached from his skin.

In mid-air, it coalesced into a phantom silver halo.

The halo is about one meter in diameter and rotates slowly, with star-like light flakes flowing along its edges.

At the center of the halo, the miniature galaxy was clearly visible, and even the orbits of the three planets showed subtle shifts.

Those are the traces of mutual gravitational attraction.

Starlight Bloodline Technique... [Star Trail Light Wheel]!

Although it was illusory, and could only last for a mere three breaths...

But this means that Ian has officially entered the Formation Stage!

He opened his eyes.

A golden glint flashed deep within his pupils, then turned into a profound silver glow, as if a starry sky were hidden within.

Raise your right hand, palm facing up.

A thought subtly stirred within me.

The air within a hundred-meter radius around him suddenly became "heavy"!

It's not a real increase in weight, but rather a slight distortion of the gravitational field, adding about half the extra gravity!

A ceramic cup on the table was pressed open with a "bang," revealing fine cracks!

"Gravity manipulation...increased from 10% to 500%, with the maximum range expanded to two hundred meters..."

Ian dissipated his power, and the shards of the ceramic cup scattered with a clatter.

He looked down at his chest; the light of the Starfall Core pendant had dimmed, but a faint star pattern had appeared on its surface.

Those are the imprints left by the bloodline transition.

Consciousness sinks into the sea of ​​the mind.

The proficiency panel expands automatically, and the data has been fully updated.

Name: Li Xing (Ian)

Age: 21

[Realm: Early Stage of Form Condensation (1%)]

[Bloodline: Star Condenser (Initial Awakening)]

[Condition: In good condition]

[Bloodline Trait (Enhanced): Gravity Manipulation: Can influence the gravitational field within a 200-meter radius around the user]

【Skill:

Starlight Perception (Bloodline Skill) - Control (5%)

Star Step (Bloodline Skill) - Control (2%)

Basic Swordsmanship (Rune Art) - Mastery (1%)

Basic Purification Potion (Life Skills) - Mastery (65%)

Energy Tempering Potion (Life Skills) - Mastery (37%)

All bloodline skills have reached the mastery level.

Even basic swordsmanship, due to the subtle control over power gained during the breakthrough, naturally progressed to mastery.

His strength at the Formation stage is already comparable to that of the weakest first-level wizard in the wizarding world, only his methods are not as varied and bizarre.

more importantly……

Ian could clearly sense that deep within his bloodline, the ancient heritage concerning "gravity" had begun to unveil itself.

Although it is still very vague, the direction has been pointed out.

"Once I break through to the Manifestation Saint rank, I will truly awaken the ability to manipulate gravity..."

He raised his head and looked into the depths of the night sky, his eyes burning with fervor.

……

Fifty meters underground in the Wizarding World, at the Shadowmoon Tower.

Ian's true form sat cross-legged before the Abyss Altar, his eyes closed.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes.

Deep within his pupils, the dark vortex swirling in the center of the altar was reflected, yet it seemed to pierce through the endless void, revealing another starry sky.

Just now, at the moment when the projection broke through the solidification and the bloodline began to awaken.

A sense of "insight" ten times clearer surged forth through the connection of souls.

No longer vague fragments of information, but a complete "experience".

When the star power is infused into the body, every inch of flesh and blood trembles.

The stirring deep within the soul as the star imprint is completed.

Especially at the moment the [Star Wheel] condenses, within the miniature galaxy's phantom image, the subtle shifts in the orbits of the three planets due to their mutual gravitational pull...

Like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.

The ripples spread, touching a long-dormant area deep within the soul...

There, suspended, was an extremely complex three-dimensional rune structure.

The spell model for 【Gravity Collapse Sphere】.

At that moment, a node in the model suddenly "lit up".

Countless tiny rune lines began to automatically adjust, recombine, and optimize...

It's as if there's an invisible hand correcting mistakes and filling in the gaps.

He raised his hand, his five fingers loosely clenched.

Above the palm, the air began to distort and compress...

A "black spot" slowly emerged, more stable and solid than ever before.

Around the black dot, the curvature of the light rays is more pronounced, and a faint gravitational lensing effect can be vaguely seen.

But it only lasted for three seconds.

puff!

The black dot dissipated, and the compressed gravitational field was released instantly, transforming into an invisible shockwave that spread outwards.

At the edge of the altar, twenty-eight void anchor stones simultaneously lit up with a silver-gray halo, offsetting the impact.

"The structure has been optimized by 37%, and energy loss has been reduced by 41%, but the stability is still not enough..."

Ian muttered to himself, but there was no frustration in his eyes; instead, his eyes sparkled with excitement.

In that instant, he clearly grasped the three most critical flaws in the [Gravity Collapse Sphere] model.

Once these three flaws are addressed, the power of witchcraft will at least double, and its stability will undergo a qualitative leap.

"Unfortunately, we haven't accumulated enough experience yet."

Ian slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

The understanding of gravity through projection remains at the level of "manipulating phenomena" and has not yet touched upon the "essence of rules".

It's like someone who can skillfully use a bow and arrow but doesn't understand the principles of mechanics.

"Once the projected bloodline truly awakens and receives a deeper inheritance of gravity..."

At that time, what the entity receives will no longer be "usage experience", but rather an understanding that is close to "rule cognition"!

This is enough to support his decision to make another revolutionary improvement to the gravity sphere.

"No rush."

Ian closed his eyes and returned to meditation.

The difference in the flow rate of time between the two realms is enormous.

One month in the Wizarding World is equivalent to two years in the Projected World.

He has enough time to wait for the projection to grow, to wait for the final piece of the puzzle about "gravity" to be fully put in place.
