Wizard: My skills can be upgraded indefinitely.

The following morning, at No. 7 Zifang Lane, on the third basement level.

On the ground, thousands of shadow crystals from the shadow world were densely distributed around.

Most of them are second-order, with only a dozen or so being third-order. They are almost pure black in color, and their interiors are filled with almost liquid shadow energy.

Next to the crystal, there were more than a dozen specially made crystal bottles.

The bottle contained a viscous, dark silver liquid with fine bubbles constantly rising to the surface, emitting a strong scent of shadow potion.

This is an "advancement potion" that Ian specially prepared for Gaga using the shadow-type potion materials he had collected before.

Used to stimulate the deep awakening of the Shadow Nighthawk's bloodline and guide the fusion of fragments of shadow rules.

"quack."

Ian looked at the little guy on his shoulder.

Gaga perched on his shoulder, its little eyes fixed on the pile of shadow crystals, a gleam of excitement shining deep within its pupils.

"Are you ready?"

"I'm all set!" The little guy flapped its wings and flew up, landing in the center of the crystal pile.

The black feathers gleamed with a deep, dark hue under the cold light, as if they could devour the light itself.

Ian said no more, and his mental energy surged forth like a tide.

The isolation magic array on the three underground levels lit up layer by layer!

Starting from the corner, silvery-white runes spread along the walls, floor, and ceiling.

The entire space was completely sealed off, preventing even the slightest energy fluctuation from escaping.

Having done all this, Ian took three steps back and sat cross-legged on the edge.

"Let's begin."

Gaga closed its eyes, spread its wings fully, and each feather stood up slightly.

It took a deep breath, and the surrounding shadow crystals lit up at the same time!

Dark purple light burst forth from within each crystal, converging into a torrent of liquid shadow!

The torrent, like a giant black dragon, completely swallowed Gaga.

A hissing sound of devouring rang out, and the shadow crystal gradually dimmed, shrank, and turned into powder.

The internal shadow energy was forcibly extracted and injected into Gaga's body.

Gaga's body began to swell.

From a height of 1.5 meters, he swelled to 3 meters, 5 meters...

The feather color gradually shifts from dark silver to "shadow black," which is closer to the world of shadows.

When the black color reaches its extreme, the feathers reflect a iridescent sheen.

The silver-gray depths of Gaga's pupils began to swirl and expand, and its aura began to rise.

From the peak of the second tier, it slowly approaches the threshold of the third tier.

Ian watched quietly, his mental energy spreading out silently to monitor every slight change.

Time passed slowly, and an hour later...

Thousands of second-tier shadow crystals were all reduced to grayish-white powder.

The dozen or so third-tier crystals also dimmed, and their aura was already very close to that of the third tier.

"Now."

Ian's gravity rules activated, causing more than a dozen crystal bottles to shatter simultaneously, releasing the potion.

"Swallow it," Ian transmitted telepathically.

Gaga opened its mouth wide and swallowed all the medicine.

boom!!!

The little guy's body jolted violently, and his five-meter-tall body expanded again, instantly breaking through ten meters and then twenty meters.

The wings, barely spread, filled the entire laboratory.

The shadow patterns on the feather's surface flickered wildly, like an ignited circuit.

The silver nebula deep within the pupils spun rapidly, emitting a terrifying gravitational pull.

The surrounding space... began to distort, and a unique shadow appeared called "collapse".

Centered on Gaga, all light was completely swallowed up.

It turned into pure darkness, a darkness that even the mind could lose its senses.

From the darkness came a suppressed growl, the tremor of transformation.

Ten minutes later, the darkness suddenly contracted, and all the shadow energy, as if squeezed into a ball by an invisible hand, was injected into Gaga's body.

The little guy's size started to shrink.

From twenty meters, it shrank back to ten meters, three meters, two meters...

It eventually stabilized at a height of one meter and a wingspan of four meters.

However, the color of the feathers had completely changed to the shadow black unique to shadow creatures.

The shadow patterns on the surface have merged into one, forming a complete array of natural runes.

Inside the array, shadows flowed like liquid, and deep within the pupils, two shadow vortexes slowly rotated.

His aura had clearly reached the third-tier transcendent level!

"It's done." Ian's eyes flashed with joy, and he let out a long breath.

Ga Ga opened its eyes, looked down at its wings, and at the flowing runes.

"Ian... I did it."

Its voice was still somewhat sharp, but it was no longer the hoarseness of a boy; instead, it had a touch of maturity.

"How are you feeling?"

"I feel very strong, capable of beating countless versions of myself from the past."

It flapped its wings and flew around the laboratory, leaving behind extremely thin gray streaks in the air.

This isn't even its shadow leap; it's just pure flight speed.

Ian's eyes widened in surprise; the little guy was at least ten times faster than before!

"What about shadow jumping?"

"I'll give it a try." Then, quack, it flapped its wings.

His body vanished instantly, "jumping" directly into the shadow world without even leaving a trace.

Three breaths later, it suddenly appeared in another corner of the laboratory.

"I was almost at the city gate just now. My jump distance was three times greater than before, and I didn't need any preparation."

A look of amazement flashed in Ian's eyes as the shadow of three thousand meters leaped.

This means that in battles of the same level, as long as Gaga keeps teleporting, it is almost safe and the enemy can't catch it at all.

"Where is your shadow realm?"

At the second tier, it's just a prototype; at the third tier, it becomes a complete domain.

The quack flapped its wings again.

Throughout the underground laboratory, shadow energy writhed like a living thing, forming a small "shadow world".

Within the domain, Gaga's strength will increase significantly, while enemies will be weakened.

Ian nodded in affirmation, "Very good."

Gaga's strength increased more than tenfold from the late stage of the second tier to the third tier.

Speed, jump range, domain strength, duration of entry into the shadow world... a complete qualitative change.

In the Shadow World, Gaga could probably stand up to a mid-level level 3 wizard.

In the real world, relying on shadow jumps and domains, it is no less powerful than a typical early-stage level three.

"Congratulations, little guy." Ian's face beamed with a smile.

"Ian, thank you, you've helped me so much."

The squeaky bird flew back to my shoulder and nuzzled my cheek, its expression full of dependence.

"Without you, I might still be a level one raven. Now... I can finally help you."

Ian laughed and said, "You've always been a help to me."

After speaking, he looked towards the Abyss Altar in the corner of the laboratory. His gaze became profound.

"Next... it's time to make the final preparations."

Half an hour later, Ian packed up all the materials, emptied the laboratory, and went underground again.

He looked at the abyss altar in the center, a thoughtful expression on his face.

"The altar cannot remain here," he muttered to himself.

"I'm going to the Xuanhuang World. I don't know how long I'll be staying. There's no one to guard me. What if I get discovered..."

Although Wisteria Lane is very secluded, it's better to be safe than sorry.

The best solution is to relocate, find a deserted wilderness, dig down thousands of meters, and rebuild.

"Set up five more layers of isolation magic arrays to completely block the fluctuations, and... a long-distance teleportation array should also be built at the same time."

As the plan gradually became clearer in Ian's mind, he turned around, walked onto the ground, and went to the living room.

He took out ten specially made crystal tubes from his dimensional ring; these were the potent "purification potions" he had prepared for Titu.

According to the schedule, Titu should wake up in a month or two at most, but Ian can't wait.

"These...let's leave them to Edel."

He carefully sealed the medicine, placed it in a jade box, and then looked out the window.

The sunlight was just right, shining into the courtyard, making it warm and comfortable.

"It's time to... say goodbye."

In the afternoon, at the Just family castle.

Delia stood in front of the door, and her eyes lit up when she saw Ian walking in.

"Guest Marcus!"

She quickly stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and said, "Miss is in the study. I'll take you in."

Ian nodded and followed her into the castle.

The corridor is long, with portraits of past clan leaders hanging on both sides.

Sunlight streamed through the stained glass windows, casting dappled patterns of light and shadow on the floor.

Delia stopped in front of the study door.

"Miss, Mr. Marcus has arrived."

"Ian, come in."

Edel's voice came from inside the door, her tone calm.

Enjoy reading "The Witcher: My Skills Can Be Limitless".

Delia pushed open the door and stepped aside.

Ian went inside. The study was large, with bookshelves lining the walls.

Adele sat behind her desk, the sleeves of her deep purple robe rolled up to reveal her fair wrists.

She was looking at a document when she heard footsteps, so she put the document down and got up.

"sit."

Ian sat down in the chair opposite the desk.

Gaga perched on his shoulder, unusually quiet, its little eyes surveying the study.

"What brings you here today?"

Adele walked to the window, her back to Ian, and spoke very softly.

"Normally... you don't come looking for me on your own initiative."

Ian was silent for a moment, then took the jade box out of his dimensional ring and placed it on the table.

"These are ten doses of Tier 3 purification potion. Your father should be able to wake up in a month or two at most."

"These medicines should be enough."

Adele turned around, her gaze falling on the jade box, her expression complex.

"Are you leaving?" she asked softly.

Ian nodded. "Yes, I plan to travel the Central Continent and broaden my horizons."

This was an excuse they had prepared long ago; it was perfectly normal for a level three wizard to travel across the continent in search of resources to continue their journey.

Adele didn't ask any further questions. She walked to the desk and gently touched the lid of the box with her fingertips.

"Then...when will you be back?"

"I don't know," Ian said honestly.

"Maybe one or two years, or maybe... a long time."

Adele lowered her head, her long hair falling down and obscuring her profile.

The study fell silent, with only the rustling of leaves in the wind outside the window.

After a long while, she raised her head and smiled.

"Then... I wish you all the best on your journey."

She walked up to Ian and extended her hand.

"Wherever you go, remember... the Just family will always be your allies."

Ian took her hand in his; his palm was soft but a little cool.

"Thanks."

"I'm the one who should be saying thank you." Adele withdrew her hand, turned around, and walked back to the window.

"Without you, Father might never have woken up; without you, I wouldn't be in this position."

She suddenly became somewhat depressed, and her voice was soft.

"Without you... many things wouldn't be the way they are now."

Ian didn't speak, nor did he know what to say.

Gaga squatted quietly, its little eyes looking at Ian and then at Adele.

Finally, it lowered its head and gently pecked at Ian's collar with its beak.

Ian immediately understood, stood up, and said, "We... should go."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

Adele didn't turn around; she just looked out the window.

Ian turned and walked toward the door, but when he reached it, he stopped and looked back.

"Take care of yourself."

The footsteps faded into the distance in the corridor and eventually disappeared.

In the study, Adele slowly turned around, her eyes slightly red.

She walked back to her desk, picked up the document, and sat down again, as if nothing had happened.

My hand holding the pen was trembling slightly.

After leaving the castle, Ian did not return to Wisteria Lane, but instead flew directly out of the city and eastward.

Gaga perched on his shoulder, its little paws gripping him tightly.

"Ian...she's very sad," the little guy whispered.

"I know," Ian said calmly.

"But we are not on the same path. She has a father, a family, and too many ties."

He flew at full speed, his figure transforming into a silver streak as he streaked across the sky.

An hour later, they had traveled more than 10,000 miles from East City and arrived at an inconspicuous little valley.

The valley is sparsely covered with vegetation and rocks. Energy fluctuations are quite common.

Like countless ordinary valleys in the Central Continent, it has no distinguishing features.

"This is it."

Ian landed and scanned his surroundings with his mental energy.

It was confirmed that there were no strong energy fluctuations or wizard settlements within a radius of 100 miles.

"Gah gah, keep watch and search the surroundings."

"Understood!" The little creature flapped its wings and flew up, disappearing into the shadows.

Ian walked to the center of the valley, and the law of gravity was activated immediately.

The ground beneath my feet trembled silently, and rocks, soil, grass roots... all matter cracked silently in the gravitational field.

It was as if it had been cut open by an invisible giant knife, revealing a deep passage.

Ian leaped down, his body slowly sinking under the pull of gravity.

For every two hundred meters he descended, he carved a layer of isolation magic array on the rock face.

Silver-white runes lit up, merging into the rock strata and sealing off all fluctuations.

One floor, two floors, three floors...

When it sank to a depth of one thousand meters, all five layers of the witch array had been activated.

On the surface of the rock wall, five silver halos slowly rotated, intertwining to form a perfect enclosed barrier.

The surroundings were pitch black, with only the silver light from Ian's palm illuminating a small area.

"One thousand meters deep should be enough."

He stopped what he was doing and looked down at his feet.

The gravitational field expanded again, squeezing and pushing aside the surrounding rocks to form a spherical space with a diameter of 300 meters.

He set up another layer of isolation magic array, connecting it to the five layers of isolation above.

When everything was over, the surface of the rock wall was shrouded in the glow of six layers of witchcraft arrays, and from the outside, it looked like a silver egg buried deep underground.

Ian landed and took out materials from his dimensional ring: Void Anchor Stone, Abyss Rune Stone, Unbound Iron, Flawless Magic Crystal...

Half an hour later.

A brand new abyssal altar stands in the center of the space.

Runes flowed across the dark red rock surface, and a central vortex slowly rotated.

All fluctuations were completely sealed off by the six-layered witch array, preventing even a trace from escaping.

"The altar is complete; now comes the important part."

Ian clapped his hands and turned to walk towards the altar.

Take another batch of materials from the dimensional ring.

Astral silver sand, void crystals, messenger bird feathers, a celestial compass...

These are the core materials for building the "hyper-distance teleportation array".

Thanks to the learning feedback function of the panel, Ian had already fully absorbed this knowledge.

After going through all the details again, he squatted down and began to inscribe the rune array, his movements slow and meticulous.

Every stroke was executed with utmost care, ensuring the rune structure was perfect.

Time passed in silence, three hours later.

A tiny teleportation array has been completed.

The circular array, three meters in diameter, shimmered with a silvery-white light.

The internal runes are extremely complex, like a miniature starry sky sealed inside.

Most importantly, it is connected to the adjacent Abyss Altar through a special phase channel.

Once activated, both magic arrays will operate simultaneously: the altar will assist in locating coordinates, and the teleportation array will construct a stable channel.

"Everything is ready."

Ian stood up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked on with anticipation.

Satisfied, he glanced at the teleportation array, then arrived at the altar and sat down cross-legged.

Gaga emerged from the shadows and landed on his shoulder.

"It's quiet up there, nobody's there."

"That's good." Ian nodded, closed his eyes, and recovered his mental energy.

"We'll set off once the projection technology breaks through."

Gaga nodded vigorously, her little eyes filled with excitement, "Finally... we're going to other worlds!"

Ian smiled, said nothing more, and simply waited quietly.

Time passed day by day.

Ian remained motionless, seated cross-legged before the altar.

Late night of the fifth day.

hum! ! !

Within the sea of ​​consciousness, the connection of the [Phase Weaving Soul Technique] suddenly trembled violently.

Ian suddenly opened his eyes, to the other end of the soul connection.

A massive, scorching wave of energy, like the birth of a star, emanated from it!

"It's finally starting!" Ian's eyes flashed with a silvery light.

Wei Song is about to break through and become a legendary-level superhuman.

He only needs to wait quietly for the breakthrough. At that time, just like Li Xing breaking through to his true form, a large amount of rule feedback will enable his gravity rule to break through to more than 50%.

"Then, Wei Song set up a receiving teleportation array in the Xuanhuang World..."
