Wizard Immortality.

Chapter 51 Reaching the Critical State | Promotion Conditions

After killing three wizards from the Raven Wizarding Guild.

Vic plunged into the deep mountains, found a secluded area rarely visited by people, and began to study diligently and accumulate strength.

Wars outside the country.

The fate of Black Tower Academy.

Nothing to do with him.

Time goes by.

Time flies by.

at this time.

It has been more than three years since Vic left Black Tower Academy.

Uninhabited mountainous area.

Inside a simple wooden hut abandoned by a hunter.

Vic sat cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed. His wizard robes were covered in dust, and moss grew at his feet. Three gray-feathered carrion crows landed at the window, watching him intently.

After being promoted to senior apprentice.

Wizards can go for years without food or water.

After arriving in this place, Vic did not move an inch for three years.

Like a stone sculpture, it is rooted in the ground.

Relying on the advanced extraction method of spirit body speed reading and the Lich's Life Box, his spiritual body energy density increased at a very stable rate over three years.

just now.

It's only one step away from the critical value.

Vic estimated that, based on his current condition, his spiritual body's energy density would reach the critical value for advancing to the first-level wizard in about a week.

last life.

Vic has advanced to the peak of the sixth-level wizard.

He knew all too well that each time a wizard ascended to a higher level of life form, the process was extremely dangerous and terrifying.

If it fails.

The knowledge system collapsed.

The collapse of one's spiritual body and a drastic decline in physical strength are the least of one's worries.

In severe cases, failing to be promoted can lead to immediate death on the spot, which is not an exaggeration.

and so.

Even in the critical state before advancing to the first level of wizard, he would not relax in the slightest and would go all out.

Ten days later.

rainy night.

As always, Vic focused on learning and building his skills.

At this moment, the energy density of his spiritual body was increasing at a snail's pace, so slowly that it was imperceptible.

This is a sign that the spiritual body has reached its maximum capacity.

But Vic remained unmoved.

Don't rush, don't worry, let everything take its natural course, and keep a clear and open mind.

Several hours later.

A mental pressure, beyond Vic's control, began to emanate from his spiritual body.

To incite or encourage.

Stirring.

Every outbreak.

Even the decaying wooden houses would tremble violently.

The powerful force that pierced through the rain pushed aside the curtain of rain, creating a brief vacuum.

The outbreak only occurred three times.

During this period.

Vic's mental energy intensity also increased three times with the burst of mental pressure, each time increasing by about 10%.

This.

It's not over yet.

The old wooden house had already collapsed by then.

Vic was covered in debris and soaked by the rain, but he didn't move.

After the burst of mental pressure subsided.

The conditions and methods for advancing to the first-level wizard level, like the instincts of a living being after birth, are transformed into knowledge and manifested within his spiritual body.

The mystical energy contained in each of the characters and symbols far exceeds the limits that a wizard's apprentice can bear.

This is the high price a wizard must pay to increase their life level.

It is also an essential step in the advancement process of every wizard.

If a wizard's knowledge system is robust, he can bear knowledge that exceeds his own life level, thus gaining the opportunity to advance to the next level as a wizard.

If the knowledge system is not deep enough or solid enough, it will not be able to support the knowledge required to advance to the next level of wizard.

If it fails.

At best, all efforts will be in vain, and the team's vitality will be severely damaged.

In severe cases, one's strength becomes permanently solidified, all efforts are rendered in vain, and one dies of old age like an ordinary person.

The moment the conditions and methods for advancing to a first-level wizard appeared, Vic's spiritual body trembled violently. A terrifying power coursed through his body, causing his bones and flesh to break apart spontaneously, with blood flowing freely.

The excruciating pain, unbearable for ordinary people, constantly tormented Vic, tearing at his will and body.

But Vic's resolve remained unwavering.

Unmoved.

Just like the eternal principle of equivalence in the wizarding world.

Persistent dedication and effort, though not immediately rewarded, will always prove effective at crucial moments on the wizarding path, turning the tide.

Twenty-five years after his rebirth.

Even if one's talent is mediocre.

However, Vic is diligent and hardworking in his studies, and has accumulated a profound knowledge base over the years, making his knowledge system as solid as a rock.

After a while.

The latest novel is first published here!

All unusual phenomena returned to normalcy.

The ruptured flesh and bones in Vic's body healed completely after he reached the critical state.

At this moment, the intensity of his spiritual energy far exceeded that of an ordinary senior apprentice.

If he were to encounter those three senior apprentices who ambushed him three years ago, Vic wouldn't need to use the magic orb; his raw strength would be enough to crush them.

Their strength has increased dramatically.

Vic has always kept a low profile.

After reaching the critical state.

He carefully and cautiously suppressed his mental magnetic field, maintaining it at the level of a senior apprentice.

Only then did I begin to understand the knowledge about advancing to the first level of wizardry that appeared in my spiritual body.

The mysterious force is unpredictable and ever-changing.

The wizarding world is also like a terrifying and bloody dark forest.

The conditions and methods for each wizard to advance their life level are completely different, but no one else knows them except the one who is advancing.

The condition for Vic to advance to a first-level wizard is to concoct a special first-level potion and drink it on a rainy day.

At first glance, the conditions don't seem difficult, but even Vic had never seen this special first-level potion before.

The potion is called "Eternal Brilliance".

The required materials and preparation methods are extremely complex, including a special ingredient called "the inextinguishable flame of life".

Vic, who had the experience of being a level six alchemist in his previous life, had never heard of such a thing.

The potion's effect is very simple: drinking it on a rainy day will raise your life level by one.

The conditions for advancing to the first-level wizard level, and the related knowledge, can only be learned by Vic after he reaches the critical state.

The road is difficult.

But he won't stop.

Now that the conditions for promotion are clear, all that's left is to collect materials and concoct potions.

There's no point in staying here any longer.

I wonder how the war between Black Tower Academy and the Raven Wizarding Guild is going.

half a month later.

Southern part of Death Rift Valley.

The Kingdom of Thorn Flowers.

This country was originally a secular region ruled by mortals, where the situation was chaotic and lords were constantly at war with each other.

The Thorn Flower Royal Family was treated like a plaything under the control of the various lords.

but.

This situation changed four hundred years ago.

A prince from the Thorn Flower royal family, born out of wedlock, embarks on the path of a wizard and, years later, returns as a powerful first-class wizard.

since then.

The structure of the Thorn Flower Kingdom has been completely unified.

Another first-level wizard was the wife of the King of Thorns. The two first-level wizards controlled the country and managed its resources.

In recent years, there have been rumors that the King of Thorns has shown signs of becoming a senior member, with strength and resources far exceeding those of ordinary wizard families.

The secular world is different from the wizarding world.

The city has a large population and bustling streets, making it exceptionally prosperous.

Vik left the deep mountains and forests.

He tried his best to avoid the territory of Black Tower Academy and Raven Wizarding Guild along the way, not wanting to be caught up in the war between the two sides and delay his important task of advancing to the first level of wizard.

but.

I want to buy materials for the advancement potion.

The trading market in the capital of the Thorn Flower Kingdom became his only option.

Although it cannot compare to the trading markets run by the Black Tower Academy and the Raven Wizarding Society, it is safer and has a more complete selection of materials than the former two.

The intensity of daily life has been quite high lately. My mind isn't very clear when I'm writing at night!
