Wizard Immortal

Chapter 292 Second-Level Wizard

"Was what I saw earlier a dream or reality?"

He suddenly opened his eyes and sat on the silver stone platform, panting heavily, his breathing somewhat disordered.

He thought about the scene he had witnessed earlier, and his right hand unconsciously touched his forehead, where an emerald-colored mark was emerging, emitting a faint glow and appearing very bright.

A deep memory emanated from the jade mark, and the scenes he had experienced before transformed into a stream of information, which was then deeply engraved in his mind, making it impossible for him to forget.

"The Tombstone of the Progenitor of the Elves..."

He muttered to himself, thinking about the scene he had witnessed earlier, and suddenly remembered the calamity lord he had met in the past.

According to the Scourge Lord, he and Adir's ancestors had participated in a war against the Scourge world. In the end, their ancestors were defeated, and their descendants were also tainted by the curse of the Scourge world. From then on, they would mostly suffer misfortune and find it difficult to grow to a higher level.

Everything the other person described overlapped with the scene Adir had witnessed, causing him to mutter to himself, "Mother of Emeralds, what are you trying to tell me..."

The Mother of Jade is another name for the Ancient Tree of Life and the source of the Jade Mark.

By now, Adir had a vague idea that the jade mark on his body was probably placed by the Jade Mother, in order to suppress the curse on him and give him enough time to grow.

"curse."

Thinking of the curse on his body, Adir's expression instantly became uncertain.

After advancing to the second-level wizard and successfully solidifying the spell of Natural Sensing, Adir's senses became ten times stronger, and they continued to grow over time.

Such terrifying sensitivity allows one to vaguely sense things that were previously imperceptible.

At this moment, Adir clearly felt that deep within his body, there was a terrifying power full of corrosiveness and aggression, which was faintly revealing its aura.

This power lies dormant very deep and is suppressed by the emerald mark. Even with Adir's current sensory abilities, he can only roughly sense the existence of this power and cannot obtain any other information.

"They really never stop."

After a long while, Adir's expression returned to calm as he sensed the power lurking within him.

One must focus on the present. No matter how terrifying the power of the curse within him was, it could not have any effect on Adir under the suppression of the Emerald Mark.

If one can raise their own power to a certain level before the power of the Emerald Mark is exhausted, they might be able to block the power of the curse.

"But in that case, the kind of slow, time-consuming promotion method is probably no longer feasible." Thinking of this, Adir's expression turned somewhat grim.

Adir has never been a radical person.

His original plan was to stay in the Silver Mist Forest for hundreds of years until he was strong enough before trying to explore other worlds.

As a pure-blooded moon elf, with Adil's aptitude and the powerful learning ability he gained with the help of the chip, as long as he stays obediently for hundreds of years and is supported by the entire elven race, he will be able to advance to a fourth-level wizard sooner or later.

By then, with the power of a fourth-level wizard and the assistance of the entire elven race, unifying the Maison region would be a piece of cake. There would be no need to take any risks, and one could easily reach the pinnacle of life.

Unfortunately, the curse that came with the Moon Elf bloodline completely ruined Adir's plan.

Heaven knows how many more years the jade mark on his body can last. If the curse on his body breaks out prematurely before the moon elf bloodline in Adir's body matures, that would be truly laughable.

"Our original plans have been disrupted. Continuing to hide among the elves is definitely not an option. It seems that we still need to put the plan to go to other worlds on the agenda."

Adir rubbed his forehead, his face looking rather pale. Then he reached out with his right hand, picked up a beautiful silver fruit from the side, and took a bite.

A faint, refreshing fragrance wafted around, intoxicating the senses, and the energy particles in the air seemed to become slightly more active.

After finishing the fruit without changing his expression, Adir underwent a slight change.

The previously chaotic energy began to calm down. The mana that had been depleted due to the recent advancement was replenished, and the weakness that had been emanating from his body was instantly relieved.

"What a treasure! It's a pity that even after searching through all the treasures of the Elven Royal Court, this was the only one I could find."

Feeling the changes in his body, Adir sighed, then picked up the other bottles of potion and drank them one by one.

After finishing the entire potion, Adir looked at his body data.

「姓名:阿帝尔.法库斯。力量：44.2。敏捷：46.5。体质：45.3。精神：61.2。血肉纯化度：0.1%。界能：317.8。血脉：月精灵（幼年）。」

As expected, after being promoted to a level two wizard, almost all of his stats improved significantly, and they will continue to grow over time.

Compared to the previous attribute panel, the "Spirit Purification" option has now disappeared, and in its place is the new "Flesh and Blood Purification" option.

"Spiritual purification is the most important criterion for a first-level wizard, while flesh and blood purification is the standard for a second-level wizard." Adir thought to himself as he looked at his brand-new attribute panel.

In the past few months, with the vast knowledge collected by the elven race and the personal guidance of Kuraldo, a third-level wizard, Adir is no longer unfamiliar with the study of second-level wizards.

If at the first-level wizard stage, the goal is to increase the purity of one's spiritual power in order to advance to the second-level wizard stage, then at the second-level wizard stage, to improve oneself, one needs to use one's high-quality spiritual power to gradually demonize one's flesh and blood cells.

With the wizards' research capabilities, high-magnification microscopes have long been invented. Although they are far inferior to the magnification of microarrays, they are still capable of seeing cells hidden beneath flesh and blood.

The training of a second-level wizard is built upon this foundation.

At this stage, the wizard needs to study his own flesh and blood in detail, and then use his powerful mental strength to gradually demonize the cells and flesh of his body, so that his entire body can undergo further transformation.

This process requires not only a thorough understanding of oneself, but also a sufficiently strong level of spiritual purification.

This stage also has the highest requirements for the purity of mental energy. Normally, even at the first-level wizard stage, as long as the purity of mental energy is above 80%, one can try to advance to a formal wizard. However, a wizard who advances in that way will undoubtedly have an unstable foundation and will be at a great disadvantage in the stage of spiritualizing flesh and blood.

The lower the purity of a wizard's spiritual power, the more difficult it is for them to use their spiritual power to demonize a piece of flesh and blood. Sometimes, they may not even be able to complete the demonization at all and may be stuck at the level of a second-level wizard, unable to move forward.

"I undoubtedly have a great advantage in the training of a second-level wizard."

Sitting on the silver stone platform, Adir thought quietly, "With the chip, I have a thorough understanding of my own flesh and blood. I don't need to spend as much effort as other wizards to study my own flesh and blood in detail."

"Furthermore, I have a significant advantage in terms of the purity of my spiritual energy, almost reaching 100%..."

With Kuraldo's reminder and information on the entire elven race, Adir spared no effort in improving the purity of his spiritual power.

Countless precious materials and potions were used, along with all sorts of advanced spells and baptisms. Even the third-level archmage, Kuraldo, personally intervened, using secret techniques to help Adir cleanse his spirit of impurities. Only when the purity of his spiritual power could no longer be improved did Adir attempt to break through to the second-level wizard level.

Therefore, in terms of the purity of spiritual power, Adir would not dare to say that he is unprecedented, but he can certainly leave most so-called genius wizards behind without any pressure, and it is more than enough to serve as a foundation.

After briefly examining the changes in his body, Adir got up and stepped down from the stone platform after a long while.

As his natural senses opened, everything around him appeared clearly in his mind and was perceived by Adir. This feeling was very strange. Even though he hadn't opened his eyes or activated his mental power, he could accurately sense the things around him. He could even clearly feel the cheering and annihilation of a single energy particle.

Of course, this unique sensation only lasts within a radius of a few meters. Beyond this range, the further outward one extends, the more blurred the perception becomes.

Once they were several dozen meters away, Adir could only vaguely sense whether there were any beings with strong life force in that place, but he couldn't sense any specific details.

Shaking his head, after a while, having probably gotten used to the feeling, Adir walked outside.

With the sound of a bell, a large door outside the hall opened, and two tall and imposing elven guards clad in silver armor entered. They immediately knelt on one knee before Adir, saying, "Lord Adir!"

Two vague emotions instantly entered Adir's mind, and he was detected by an inexplicable sense.

It was a clear and distinct emotion, a mixture of awe, respect, and fervor.

This is one of the powerful abilities that comes from solidifying natural perception; like the snake woman, one can sense the emotions in the hearts of other beings.

Of course, this ability is still very weak at this time. It can only be clearly sensed when facing someone weaker than Adir. However, if the opponent is stronger than Adir, then the sensing ability will be weakened.

"Have someone clean it up inside."

After giving a casual instruction, Adir walked out.

Before long, he arrived at a spacious room with extremely luxurious furnishings. There, an old elven man dressed in a blue priest's robe was sitting, and it seemed that he had been sitting there for a long time.

"Teacher Curaçao."

Upon entering the room and looking at the old man before him, Adir bowed slightly and paid his respects.

"Adir, you're out."

Hearing Adir's voice, Kuraldo opened his eyes, looked at Adir in front of him, and felt the undisguised aura emanating from him. His expression couldn't help but show some relief: "Good, it seems you've succeeded."

"It's all thanks to you, teacher," Adir replied respectfully.

As he spoke, he carefully sensed the aura of Kuraldo in front of him.

In an instant, an immense pressure pressed down on Adir, and even with Adir's newly advanced level two strength, he couldn't help but feel a sense of terror.

As for the other person's emotions, they are completely undetectable; one can only vaguely grasp their outlines but cannot accurately perceive them.

"No need to be modest."

Looking at Adir, Kuraldo smiled and said, "To be able to advance to the second level of wizard at this age, such talent is considered extremely outstanding even among the records of many ancient elven kings."

Hearing this, Adir smiled but did not reply.

"Speaking of which, now that you've advanced to a level two wizard, there are some things I can now entrust to you."

Before him, Kuraldo's expression turned serious as he looked at Adir and spoke.

"What is it?" Adir asked, looking at Kuraldo's expression.

"Take my men and go on inspection tours."

Kuraldo began, "In the past few months, subterranean creatures have appeared more and more frequently in various places, and many cities around have suffered disasters. There are also many suspected wizards in the metamorphosis stage appearing in various places, which has brought a lot of trouble to the high priests stationed in various places."

"In just a few months, more than a dozen white-robed priests have died in battle, and three high priests have also died."

Upon hearing this, Adir was immediately shocked, not expecting the situation to have deteriorated to this extent.

The so-called White Robe Priests refer to a unique sacrificial system among the elves, in which the High Priest is the leader of the priesthood, and the White Robe Priests are equivalent to formal wizards.

As for the high priests, each one is a wizard in the metamorphosis stage, who is specifically responsible for guarding certain important cities to maintain the rule of the royal court.

Now, in just a few months, more than a dozen white-robed priests have died, and three chief priests have perished in battle.

This is equivalent to the entire power of a major force in the Maison region. Even within the entire elven race, it carries significant weight and deserves everyone's attention.

"What are your instructions, teacher?" With that thought, Adir frowned and asked Kuraldo directly.

"I want you to travel around the country and resolve any chaos in any place that may be caused by me."

Looking at Adir before him, Kuraldo spoke solemnly.

"Demonic calamities are beginning to emerge in various places. At this time, King Cast needs to stay at the royal court, while I need to preside over the protective magic array of the capital. Neither of us can leave easily."

"At this time, you are the only one who is most suitable to do this."

Kuraldo's voice rang out with a hint of emotion.

After listening to his words, Adir pondered for a while before nodding.

At this time, he was indeed the best choice.

After being promoted to a second-level wizard, with his moon elf bloodline, Adir's strength alone would be no less than that of some senior second-level wizards.

With the addition of the Moon King's Sword, a high-level magical artifact, Adir was now capable of directly confronting even King Cast. Other second-level wizards, unless they were top-tier, were unlikely to be Adir's match.
