Wizards pursue the truth

Chapter 132 [132] Emerging from Seclusion to Face the Challenge Attracts Attention from All Sides

Time passed, and a month and a half later.

Inside the Dream Garden.

This is a place filled with the fragrance of flowers in their true colors. There are fences on both sides of the road, and as far as the eye can see, there are a dazzling array of flowers: bright roses, saturated peonies, and dewy tulips. Flowers that can be found in reality can all be found here.

From Wang Ya's perspective, these flowers have some subtle differences.

The rose is roughly the shape of a rose, but its stems are covered with various kinds of black fuzz, some thick and some thin, like the fur of a bear.

Vibrant petals and buds dripped with foul-smelling sap, tiny teeth protruded from the crevices of the petals, hanging there, the buds plump and swaying in the breeze.

As Wang Ya walked along the road, the flowers followed him, turning in a different direction, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Wang Ya smiled, and a sickle appeared in his hand.

[Target: Evil Rose]

[Details: Recorded in the Dream Creature Atlas, the seemingly ordinary rose poses a deadly danger. Approaching it even slightly will result in being bitten by its sharp teeth, injecting lethal venom like a snake. Once bitten, it will not let go, and in an instant, the venom will transform the creature's flesh into absorbable nutrients.]

Without a doubt, these beautiful roses are extremely dangerous.

Wang Ya's wizard experiment is only missing the venom of this substance to complete the preparation.

The specific experiment involved using the venomous properties of the Evil Rose to melt certain special dream products that were difficult to process using other methods.

Hiss!

A serpentine cry emanated from the bud of the Evil Rose, warning Wang Ya as he approached.

Clearly, they sensed that the figure in the black wizard's robes in front of them was not someone to be trifled with.

Wang Ya snapped his fingers lightly, and the stimulation of his mental energy guided the fluctuations of dream power. An invisible pressure descended upon the flower field, and the many flowers that were still chirping seemed to be frozen in place, unable to move an inch.

Dream magic [cursing/witchcraft]

This is one of the three low-level dream magic techniques developed by Wang Ya within the past two weeks.

One can use their dream power to precisely strike a single individual through mental impact, or it can be transformed into a wide-range attack, with a maximum range of ten meters.

The specific effect is as it is now: complete suppression, rendering it unable to move an inch.

Of course, this is a form of forceful suppression. If the enemy's dream power is stronger than Wang Ya's dream power, it will have no effect.

[Current Dream Power Unit: 9.3]

Wang Ya's speed in increasing his dream power is not slow, because his own mental strength foundation is already there.

The power of dreams is the ultimate extension of personal consciousness and is directly related to mental strength.

In about a month, the power of dreams will be able to reach the same level as particle energy.

With a scythe, Xi Sui easily harvested the Evil Roses, cutting down three in total. A faint blue glint flashed in his pupils; the amount of venom inside the flower buds was sufficient.

The power of dreams once again enveloped Wang Ya, this time with extremely obvious fluctuations. A silvery-white luster enveloped Wang Ya's entire body, and his form gradually faded away in the void.

When they reappeared, they were already at the entrance of the manor.

Dream Spell [Dream Body]

This is an extremely unique form of witchcraft. Wang Ya referenced many characteristics of elemental witchcraft, such as the method used by Chief Suer to descend when the secret realm competition ended. This involved using light refraction and light temperature conduction to construct a physical form and perform a witchcraft effect similar to teleportation.

As long as the dream body is marked in advance and a dream seed is left, it can selectively replace the original body.

It is extremely useful for both movement and dodging damage in combat, creating unexpected effects.

Of course, none of these are the most important things. Under Wang Ya's vision, the three witchcrafts he created can be combined to form a medium-level witchcraft.

Currently, all three types of witchcraft have been created, and the next step is to create intermediate-level witchcraft.

Wang Ya's progress in this area was not as fast as that in low-level witchcraft, after all, it was mid-level witchcraft, and powerful mid-level witchcraft could achieve effects comparable to high-level witchcraft.

For example, the Rhine lineage's inherited witchcraft that Wang Ya possessed, such as the Flame Demon Fear Witchcraft.

In addition, Wang Ya also needs to consider other aspects so that the dream magic he creates can, to a certain extent, complement the combat power of the elemental wizard system.

The bias is more towards the auxiliary aspects.

The third low-level witchcraft he created was called [Dream Entry].

As the name suggests, it allows one to enter another person's dream. Combined with two other witchcraft techniques, the intermediate-level witchcraft that Wang Ya envisioned could allow one to walk through different dreams, attack within dreams, and suppress the consciousness of enemies.

Even to the point of stealing certain intelligence information.

In the event of certain unavoidable dangers, one can also avoid those dangers by entering someone else's dream.

A more advanced concept of witchcraft is the ability to attach oneself to another person's mental energy or even consciousness without being detected.

However, it is still too far from Wang Ya's reach; it is merely a concept for this path of dream magic.

There is also offensive magic, but that is another intermediate magic created through three low-level dream magic spells.

The Rhine lineage's inheritance is actually very ingenious. Its ingenuity lies in the interconnectedness of the wizarding lineage, with seamless transitions between generations, making the system incredibly perfect.

Wang Ya then used this ratio of spells in the dream magic tradition he created.

Inside the laboratory.

Wang Ya observed the situation in the largest culture chamber. In the center of the nutrient solution, there was a huge spherical object, somewhat similar to the flesh and blood sphere that Harak had once been in.

However, there are still significant differences in the details.

The surface of the sphere is not covered with flesh and blood, but with a mixture of various colorful paints and abstract lines, resembling an ugly ball of yarn.

There are still some untrimmed lines and tentacles on the edges and corners. If you zoom in, you can see the tiny mouthparts on the tentacles, taking in nutrients from the nutrient solution.

The entire sphere floated erratically in the nutrient solution, resembling a jellyfish, with tiny, transparent white tentacles at its lower end that were almost invisible unless one looked closely.

Wang Ya processed the three evil roses on the worktable and collected a whole bottle of special venom.

Then he took out five pieces of jet-black ore, each about the size of a fist, and placed them on the tray.

As the special venom drips, a corrosive effect is immediately produced, but the emitted smoke is white, a pure white.

Tick ​​tock!

Pour the melted pure black water into the nutrient solution.

The nutrient solution, which was originally somewhat gray and turbid, began to heat up and gradually boiled under the neutralization of the black liquid, producing bubbles.

The eerie sphere of tentacles came to life, its tentacles flailing wildly. A smile appeared on Wang Ya's face; this was exactly the scene he wanted to see.

"The initial cultivation is complete. The rest is to continuously absorb more dream creatures and put their flesh and blood into the nutrient solution to allow the 'Nightmare' to grow."

Wang Ya named this creation, hoping that it would grow up and become a nightmare for the enemy.

The specific training methods are also based on successful real-world examples.

Harak, a fusion of an infinite genome.

Wang Ya then thought of replicating it and creating an infinite dream genome.

With the help of the Eye of Truth, they actually managed to create it, but Harak was still in the third level of the Dream Tower.

Even though the Gendass Dogs were in culture tanks in the lab, Wang Ya had no idea what to expect.

The main purpose of entering the Dream Garden this time is to clarify my path as a wizard, and to give it a try in advance.

Wang Ya didn't have high hopes either; it was a long experimental process.

It's still a bizarre and fantastical dream world.

The thought of researching an infinite genome, and the time and effort required to do so, gave Wang Ya a headache.

The main focus was still on the creation of witchcraft.

For an ordinary wizard, it is already quite remarkable to be able to clearly define the path of a wizard and create a wizardry of one's own.

Wang Ya is sometimes surprised by her own talent in dream magic.

In a month and a half, while also having some energy to spare for other things, he was still able to create three low-level witchcraft spells.

Even if there were connections to the path of elemental wizards, it would still be a bit of an exaggeration.

After closing the seal on the culture chamber, Wang Ya walked out of the laboratory.

Upon entering the courtyard, one finds that about two-thirds of the plants on the black soil have been gone, having been consumed by Wang Ya over a month and a half.

The remaining dream plants, upon seeing Wang Ya's appearance, trembled, covered their faces, and turned away, unable to bear looking any longer.

Wang Ya ignored the little guys; they were too green and needed more nurturing.

[Current active neurons: 3.4%]

[Dream Power: 9.8 units]

[Dream Recall Meditation Method: 'Basic Version (9/9)' 'Advanced Version (5/12)']

Current mental strength: 24.5

[Dream Magic: Reality Conversion, Curse, Dream Entry, Dream Body, Dream Senses, Dream Sword]

During this period, a new wizard rune for the Dream Recall Meditation Technique was also drawn.

In terms of improving mental strength, Wang Ya felt that he was the fastest among this batch of wizard students.

Even the so-called genius wizards of the family could not compare to him.

This is a secret passed down exclusively to dream wizards, the Dream lineage.

Dream creatures and dream plants with no side effects—their effects are truly remarkable.

The individual's mental endurance has its limits. If too many dream creatures are consumed within a certain period of time, it is very likely that the individual will become dream-like.

Wang Ya had previously overindulged in dream products and absorbed dream power without restraint.

Thanks to the Eye of Truth's timely reminder, otherwise he would have ended up like the Dream Wizard, his true form forever trapped in the dream world.

If he could continue taking these things, Wang Ya was even confident that he could advance to the third-level wizard apprentice level within five years.

The further you go, the more difficult it becomes to improve your mental strength.

This cannot be changed by whether one has good or bad aptitude, or whether one is a genius.

However, the Dream Wizard system and the consumption of dream creatures can change this situation.

In some respects, the Dream Wizard system is the best support system. If one cultivates the same path as other wizards, the benefits are terrifying.

Wang Ya is now experiencing the thrill of it all; such continuous improvement is incredibly addictive.

"We're about to leave," Wang Ya said with a sigh.

Time is running out for him.

It wasn't a time limit, but rather that Wang Ya's physical condition forced her to leave.

Dreaming is a continuous process, and the longer one stays in the dream world, the deeper the process becomes.

In the end, even the [Real Transformation] magic might not be able to free Wang Ya from the dream world.

Ordinary dream wizards, let alone eating and drinking like him, would reach their limit after staying in the dream world for only a month or two. When they leave, they have to prepare some things in advance and spend half a day to return to the real world.

Wang Ya has been in the dream world for two months now.

He left himself one last two weeks.

Using the favorable environment of the dream world, create the two pre-designed intermediate magic spells.

At the very least, we must create one of them.

Underground Headquarters

Zac Anton walked out of the laboratory, looking somewhat tired.

However, after completing the creation of many powerful puppets, a smile appeared on his face.

This is a follow-up aspect of puppet-based witchcraft.

These powerful puppets he created were comparable to the strength of a second-level wizard apprentice.

In the realm of wizard apprentices, sheer numbers can be extremely effective.

Zac Anton was provoked by Wang Ya.

In the secret realm, the extraordinary tide of creatures, like ocean waves, remains the most unforgettable scene in his heart.

Clenching his fists, Zak'Anton gradually regained his confidence over the past few days.

He's not much worse than Wang Yahalak. In a rematch, without the troublesome secret realm environment, he'll be the one able to unleash a massive human wave tactic.

This is called the wheel of fortune turning.

Suddenly, Zak'Anton frowned as a message came from the Wizard's Mark.

Dante of the Churchill family invited him to a salon gathering, where they could discuss the recent heated debate over the duel.

He was puzzled. What had happened at the headquarters of the Underworld?

He has been researching puppetry technology in the clan's laboratory recently.

I don't know much about it!

When Zak'Anton pushed open the door and entered, everyone in the room looked at him with eyes that were both inquisitive and curious.

The strange look made Zac Anton raise an eyebrow, but he still found a seat and sat down.

Those who participated in the salon were almost all geniuses from wizarding families, the group who had once shone brightly in the Secret Realm competition.

It's a completely different level from the circle of ordinary wizards.

Dante leaned back on the sofa and chuckled, saying, "You look and seem to be doing quite well."

"What are you talking about!" Zak'Anton frowned even more.

Jim Noway exclaimed in surprise, "You don't know? Your brother Hades is going to fight King Ahalak to avenge you. It's said that after you were defeated by King Ahalak, you never recovered."

Upon learning the details, Zak'Anton nearly fainted upon opening his eyes.

Relishebil stuck out his long tongue and licked his lips. "The entire Underdark headquarters is watching closely, waiting for Wang Yahalak's reply—whether he refuses or agrees to the challenge. It's been almost three months since the duel was arranged; if there's still no reply, the Dream Clan will definitely lose face."

"I'm afraid that wizards from other lineages within the same school will have some different opinions about King Yahalak."

Guterres said, "That's a bit strange. Hades is also a second-level wizard apprentice, and King Yahalak is strong enough that he shouldn't be afraid to fight."

"A wizard who inherits a lineage needs to be powerful in all aspects and will never be afraid of challenges of the same level. If King Yaharak sets a precedent of being afraid to fight, that would be interesting," Relishebil said excitedly.

In any case, it is the school of thought that suffers the loss of prestige. They belong to the wizarding families and are happy to see this happen.

Zak'Anton gritted his teeth and said, "I'll be devastated? What a joke! I wish I could fight Wang Yahalak right now."

"Which bastard spread this rumor?!"

The way everyone looked at him became even stranger.

Dante said with a smile, "It was passed down by your father."

Zac Antoon: "."

In the Dream Garden.

Wang Yacong.
