Wizard's Journey

Chapter 745 The Heart of Magic

If Black Phoenix was an outsider invited by the Cyclops, then Green was an outsider's outsider.

The many powerful exiles who actually discovered this ruin are planning to break the seal nearby. Over the years, the seal has become quite loose. In addition, the ten people who challenged to break the seal are all top-tier experts. Even the Holy Mark seal is not much of a problem with so many people working together to break it.

In the ancient war, the discovery of any new sacred relic means the excavation of an ancient battlefield!

Having been sealed away for so many years, the dregs have long since decayed, and the sealed ancient demons have also perished. Without a doubt, any magical artifacts, materials, or even remains within the ruins that still retain their properties will be among the finest of the fine.

Although its performance can no longer match its ancient peak glory after many years of wear and tear, even if it can only unleash a portion of the power of a Saintly Wizard or a World Lord's exquisite artifact, it is enough to cause a huge change in the strength of low-level life forms.

To prevent news of the discovery of this ruin from leaking to the Abyss Holy Tower, Green was confined to his main hall by Black Phoenix and forbidden to go out, only to go to the sealed place at the appointed time.

With ten years to go, Green naturally needs to prepare thoroughly.

While Green's current physical attributes are far inferior to those of a powerful Abyss King like Agmond, who possesses exceptional talent and extremely high physical limitations, he is already close to that of Digan, who challenged Agmond before, or Youquan, who was once a level three wizard.

As Green's physique improved, the feeling of that physical constraint became clearer and clearer, as if it were the essential limit of his physical life cells, the end of his life evolution as a human being.

Although the path of knowledge has no end, the physical endurance of one's body has an end!

Breaking free from constraints represents the rebirth of life's carrying capacity, the condition for the physical body to evolve into the master of the world.

Green's physical evolutionary limitations are only at a relatively high level among humans, and there is a considerable gap between him and Agmond's high level of physical limits.

Unable to become a Saintly Wizard, his physical evolution had gradually reached its limit, and he had lost his magic power due to the backlash of magic. Naturally, Grimm made restoring his magic power his goal.

but……

Due to the backlash from the failed sealing technique, Grimm was unable to resonate and control the magic. As a result, Grimm was unable to store magic in his body. Even with the magic replenishment from the Demon Hunter Armor, he could only barely cast fireballs one after another, which did nothing to improve his combat power.

Green was unable to mobilize a large amount of magic at once to leverage the rules and unleash powerful sorcery.

Hesitating, Green gritted his teeth, and a green seed, which seemed to be throbbing like a brain, appeared in his hand. This was the World Tree seed given to Green by the Guardian of Spring!

According to Green's original plan, whether the World Tree seed was planted in a fragment of the world to protect his future lair as a Saintly Wizard, or planted in a wizarding academy as the skeleton of the wizarding tower or the academy's symbol, it would have been a good choice.

But at this moment...

Green, however, intended to treat it as a disposable item, providing him with a temporary effect similar to the source of magic in the Wizard's Tower.

It must be said that this was a difficult decision for Green.

Should one choose to plant it to aid their path to the Holy Mark in the future, or should they consume it all at once for the long-term development of their Body Refining Wizard path, achieving a burst of control at a crucial moment in this exploration to obtain the Ancient Demon Remains they desire?

Green took out the black crystal ball and looked at his body information.

Mental strength: 300, Magical strength: 0~1.

体质：1577，体力：1566~1953，力量：1330~3747，活性：2284~2499。

In terms of pure physical strength and attack, even if he activated his third nature and transformed into a Savage Titan, according to Grimm's own assessment, he would only be at the level of the Black Phoenix in front of him, or even worse.

And without a doubt, among the powerful individuals participating in this exploration of the ruins, there are quite a few who are as strong as Black Phoenix!

If one could temporarily transform the immense life force of this World Tree seed into a source of magic, then the power one could unleash for a short period of time would be... that of a world master!

Without the true form of elements and the perception of real time, the power of annihilation, as a high-level qualitative change energy, can leverage a higher level of rules than ordinary high-level qualitative change energy. At that time, the power of Grin's annihilation strike will be close to 40,000 degrees!

In the face of a truly powerful world ruler, such a Grimm might not be considered powerful, but for lower-level life forms, he completely overwhelms them on a life level, and at crucial moments, he is enough to control the situation and make a decisive move.

After a long while, a cold glint flashed in Green's eyes, as if he had made a decision, and he got up and left the room.

A moment later, Black Phoenix, holding the list of materials provided by Green, frowned and said, "These are all high-grade materials. Some of them I don't have on hand right now and will take some time to collect. As for the price..."

With a determined look, Green took out all the wealth he had accumulated over decades as the King of the Pangu La Abyss, the wealth he had plundered from the secret chamber of Goyou, and the wealth he had finally acquired by trading living supplies with the Gale Fox.

Black Wind glanced at them, assessed the situation, and said, "These are all high-grade materials, and you're in such a hurry. I need to use some teleportation techniques, but it's still not enough."

Frowning, Green simply took out another ice top, and Black Phoenix smiled with satisfaction and nodded.

Three months later.

After obtaining all his experimental materials, Green plunged into his laboratory and used a magic circle to shield himself from all external perception, never to reappear.

Black Phoenix came several times, but all to no avail. She couldn't help but wonder what Green was preparing.

As time passed, a few years was nothing to creatures of the level of Green and Black Phoenix.

Nine years later.

With the departure time fast approaching, there was simply no way to store more magic power in this heart of magic. Grimm gazed at this incomparably precious World Tree seed and used it all up as his heart of magic power in one go, feeling immense heartache.

The World Tree is a renowned and invincible ruler within the Wizarding Alliance, and the precious value of the World Tree seed is generally beyond the comprehension of wizards of Grimm's level, and there is simply no way to obtain it.

"Lord Shadow of Despair, we're departing tomorrow. How are your preparations going?"

Outside the door, Hei Feng asked tentatively.

On the magic altar, Grimm sighed and picked up the magic heart made from the seed of the World Tree. Instantly, the magic stones around the offering shattered, and the precious high-grade materials turned into powder, becoming a consumable item.

Even the magic altar shattered with a "crack".

Grimm picked up the magic heart that was beating incessantly, and after the transformation spell on his chest opened a wound, revealing the organs inside his chest and abdomen, he slowly put the magic heart into it. For a moment, Grimm actually had two hearts beating at the same time.

"alright!"

With a creak, Green opened the door to the room.
