Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 1007

Chapter 999: The Queen of the Sea’s Surprise at Refining the First Star Ring Potion!

Locke, Anthony, and the other wizards began to forge two spirit macromes according to the magical fire crafting method taught by the Sea Queen, attempting to combine the two cicadas.

The seven wizards of the Rootcrown Court, no matter how hard they tried, struggled with the incredible speed required to switch between five different magical fire attributes, and then to combine the spirit macromes with absolute precision and powerful spiritual awareness. They failed repeatedly, no matter how many times they tried.

Suddenly, a second-circle wizard from the Rootcrown Court spoke up: “I think this requires ten years, not even fifty, or even a hundred years of practice.”

He stopped there, realizing that following this approach would be futile; he couldn’t learn the crafting method quickly anyway, so he simply gave up.

Alex advised, “You can’t set such expectations for yourself.”

The second-circle wizard shook his head, saying, “Look at Lord Augustine and Lord Anthony; even they couldn’t complete it.” At this moment, Locke frowned. Every time he used magical flames to refine the two spirit macropoises, at that very moment, the two macropoises would suddenly go out of control, completely beyond his control, and drift away into the distance.

The wizard Anthony beside him, although in a different situation, also experienced his macropoises spontaneously combusting at the very last step. This left Locke and Anthony, who had been secretly competing and eager to prove themselves, somewhat dumbfounded.

Anthony no longer cared about Locke’s progress; he focused all his attention on the two macropoises in his hands. Then, with near-perfect technique, he perfectly replicated every step of the Sea Queen’s process.

But just as the two macropoises were about to flip and overlap, they suddenly spontaneously combusted.

Anthony was startled.

The Sea Queen, puffing on her pipe, glanced at the two men, a smirk playing on her lips.

“You two underestimate my class. Do you think you have the energy to do anything else?”

“Keeping up with my lesson is already impressive; you’ll need to give it your all.”

Locke attempted to flip and stack the two spirit macros together. He skillfully sliced the Cicada Spirit Macro with his fingers. The Cicada Spirit Macro, as the framework of all clone potions, is crucial for creating clone potions.

Anthony’s eyes lit up slightly at Locke’s practiced movements.

This action showed that Locke’s potion-making skills were definitely not weak; they were at a level that attracted him, making him want to compete. Wizard Anthony was even somewhat surprised, because he had thought Locke’s main research area was breeding.

As Locke was about to stack the two spirit macros together, Anthony whispered, “Alright, just a little bit more.”

The next moment, the two spirit macros in Locke’s palm suddenly lost control, then began to spin towards his arm again. When they returned to Locke’s palm, both spirit macros were completely restored to their original state, without the slightest change.

Locke frowned as he looked at the two spirit macros.

“What’s going on? Is it because my understanding of the hidden true form of the Two Cicadas is insufficient, or because my understanding of the formula and pharmacology of the clone potion is insufficient, or is my spiritual awareness insufficient? Why do I fail every time I get to the last step? The spirit macros suddenly lose control, as if…escaping from my grasp.”

Wizard Anthony frowned upon seeing this.

Since his fortuitous encounter, he had rarely failed. From childhood to adulthood, whatever he did, while he couldn’t always do it perfectly the first time, he could always quickly grasp the basics. But this was the first time, and even after trying this time, covered in sweat, he still hadn’t succeeded. This matter… He was called a genius by Lucas every day at Lucas’s Throne, so why did he fail so miserably on his very first lesson at the Sea Queen’s Throne?

Wizard Anthony looked at the Sea Queen and asked, “Sea Queen, I want to ask why Locke and I always fail at the final step. Our techniques and magic are more than enough to complete the crafting.”

The Sea Queen replied directly, “There’s no other reason, just a lack of talent.”

Wizard Anthony was stunned, because this was the first time since becoming an apprentice of the Throne Wizard that someone had so directly told him he lacked talent.

He glanced at Locke, seeing that Locke remained expressionless and unmoved, so he had no reason to be angry.

Wizard Anthony could only continue to inquire of the Sea Queen, “Your Throne, it is indeed very strange. Every time I get to the final step, it spontaneously combusts.”

The Sea Queen frowned.

“Anthony, don’t you understand your own problem? Ling Hong is rejecting you. What kind of technique do you think Ling Hong’s layering is? That’s a technique that most second-circle potion masters don’t know. It’s my unique invention, and most potion masters at your level don’t know it.” “So, it’s normal that you can’t learn it. Because this technique, even your current teacher Lucas couldn’t learn it at your magic level.”

Wizard Anthony suddenly realized why Throne Lucas wanted him to become Throne Neptune’s apprentice.

In a sense, the Sea Queen is a true genius in potions.

The Sea Queen looked at Wizard Anthony and said, “You can’t complete the Spirit Macro stacking, and you know why. There must be something about you that prevents the Spirit Macro from recognizing you.”

Wizard Anthony was immediately stunned.

He thought of his biggest trump card that had allowed him to rise to power…

He was originally a wizard with only level 1 wood element talent. Logically, in the Rainbow Cloud Plateau, he wouldn’t have been able to enter the Throne Wizards’ fold; he was merely a low-ranking third-class wizard apprentice, unnoticed by anyone, not even the loan sharks. But one day, he suddenly found a small bottle containing a tear. He dripped the tear onto his eye. Instantly, he could see the grade of magical materials out of thin air; these grades appeared in different colors in his eyes. This was his greatest secret.

He relied on this to rise through the ranks, believing himself to be second to none.

Could it be that thing that caused it?

Wizard Anthony’s expression turned strange.

“No, no. What is it about me that’s preventing me from making further progress in Potion Mastery?”

At the same time, the Sea Queen looked at Locke and said, “Your problem is even more peculiar. Have you been anywhere recently, Locke?” Locke shook his head. “Lady Helen, I don’t think I’ve been to any strange places recently.”

The Sea Queen looked Locke up and down, then said, “You must have been somewhere recently, and it’s because of that place that Linghong refuses to acknowledge you as the main body. A potion master who can’t subdue Linghong with their own power won’t go far. But that’s a matter for your Golden Crown Mountain, and you’re not my real student, so it has nothing to do with me.” “

Therefore, it’s all up to you. But if you go to that place again, you should stop attending my classes as soon as possible. Because it’s just a waste of our time.”

Locke looked puzzled.

He thought carefully about the places he had been to along the way, and he really couldn’t figure out what he had done wrong that would affect his continued progress in potion mastery.

Could it be the Tianjiang River?

No.

That’s just an ordinary wizarding area.

The Sea Queen said, “Judging from your situation, your clone, or your true body, should still be in that place. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be unable to control Ling Hong. It’s pathetic for a potion master to enter such a place.”

Locke was completely bewildered.

Locke and Wizard Anthony exchanged a glance.

Both looked confused, and they both saw deep thought in each other’s eyes.

Wizard Anthony thought for a moment, and after checking everything on himself and confirming that there were no problems, he directly asked Locke,

“Mr. Locke, as the saying goes, ‘a leaf can block the view.’ I think I haven’t noticed anything, so I sincerely ask you, can you see if there’s anything wrong with me? If so, we can help each other. You can tell me the places you’ve been to recently, and I’ll help you determine if there’s anything wrong.”

Locke thought for a moment and said, “Alright.”

So, Locke told him his itinerary, after all, these itineraries weren’t secrets, just some place names in wizarding lands, which anyone with a little interest could find out.

After listening, Wizard Anthony shook his head.

“I’m sorry, I probably can’t help you with this. After listening to your story, I really don’t think there could be anything wrong with the place you went to.”

“Perhaps our deal can be cancelled…”

Locke said magnanimously, “Mr. Anthony, why be so formal? Since it’s a deal, it can’t be cancelled just because you didn’t see anything wrong with me. You can show me the magical items in my Astral Ring, and I’ll use my magic eye to see if there’s anything wrong.”

Wizard Anthony paused for a moment, then smiled, “I didn’t expect Wizard Locke to be so magnanimous.”

“Look, this is everything in my Astral Ring.”

Locke saw that he had taken out a large pile of medicinal herbs from the Astral Ring. The quantity and quality of these herbs were so great that even the Sea Queen would take notice.

In addition to the very precious medicinal herbs, Locke also saw a large pile of luxurious magical artifacts and potion-making equipment.

Locke said, “Brother Anthony, you’re really rich!”

Wizard Anthony laughed and said, “The Rainbow Cloud Plateau has many forests that no wizard has ever explored, and there are many magical plants that haven’t been studied. I’ve had the special ability to identify special medicinal herbs since I was a child, so I often go into those forests to collect high-grade medicinal herbs that other wizards don’t notice. That’s how I’ve made quite a bit of money.”

Sea Queen suddenly spoke up, “Anthony, look at this stone in my hand. What kind of medicinal herb do you think it is?”

Wizard Anthony looked at the stone-like object in Sea Queen’s hand. He was stunned for a moment because, in his eyes, it was not an ordinary stone at all, but some kind of medicinal herb emitting a special light.

“This is… it’s a Stone Mother Mushroom. It looks like an ordinary stone, but it’s actually a top-grade magical potion ingredient that’s hard to come by.” Sea Queen raised her eyebrows, revealing a strange expression.

“Now I understand why you were able to become Lucas’s disciple. Your ability to identify medicinal herbs is quite good, and it seems to be an innate ability, not based on knowledge. It’s rare that Lucas, who has no talent, could actually have a disciple like you.” Shan Chuan Chuan Ke laughed from the side.

Meanwhile, Wizard Anthony bowed to the Sea Queen, then said rather awkwardly, “My teacher’s abilities surpass mine countless times. Your Majesty, if I could learn even one ten-thousandth of the abilities of either you or my teacher, it would be enough for me to roam freely among the top universities in the wizarding world.”

The Sea Queen smiled.

“Your flattery skills are quite good, just like Lucas’s. When I was studying with him, he always openly liked to flatter the teacher. But it was useless, because no matter how much he fawned over the teacher, the teacher only liked me.”

Wizard Anthony smiled awkwardly.

As a junior, he dared not interrupt the banter between elders, because whether he refuted or not, he would offend someone.

The Sea Queen glanced at Wizard Anthony and said, “That Lucas fellow actually taught such a fine gem like you to be so rigid. Perhaps he’s getting old and has started to embellish his memories? When he was young, he spoke ill of our teacher behind our backs quite a bit, always thinking that our teacher, that Wizard of Truth, was troublesome, petty, and always wanted to get big results with little money.”

Wizard Anthony bowed and said, “Your Highness, such things from long ago are completely beyond my knowledge.”

While they were talking, Locke scanned all the items with his magic eye, but under Wizard Anthony’s expectant gaze, Locke still shook his head.

Wizard Anthony frowned and stored everything into his astral ring.

So where exactly did the problem lie?

Locke was also deep in thought, wondering where he had gone that prevented him from completing the Spirit Macro Overlay operation. After mastering potions to a high level, a wizard’s environmental requirements had become so demanding.

The Sea Queen glanced at the two of them, frowned slightly, and then walked away.

Wizard Anthony whispered to Locke, “Locke, look at that junior sister Alba over there. She’s starting to slowly perform Spirit Macro Overlay. Surprisingly, she doesn’t have the problem we have. Perhaps she’ll be the first wizard among us to learn Spirit Macro Overlay.” “Locke

, do you have a solution to your problem?”

Locke asked bluntly, “I’m thinking about it.”

Wizard Anthony smiled and said, “I’m not thinking about it anymore. Let’s enter the Spirit Macro Hundred Solutions system as soon as possible and see Mr. Shanchuanke.”

Locke thought for a moment, realizing that entering his own body wouldn’t solve the current problem in the short term, so he decided to enter Mr. Shanchuanke’s body first. Just then, he had already synthesized the special spirit macro he had modified using the Synthetic Cube and translated the new ritual actions. He only needed to enter Shan Chuan Ke’s body again to think and find the problem with Shan Chuan Ke, and then adjust the Nero potion formula accordingly, and begin refining the new Nero potion.

Locke said, “Then, I’ll go in too.”

The wizard Anthony and Locke exchanged glances, both seeing a subtle competition in each other’s eyes.

The two walked to Shan Chuan Ke’s side, while the Sea Queen glanced at them, then waved her hand. Instantly, the Spirit Macro Solution Scroll on the table flipped, and many of the Sea Queen’s spirit macros appeared on Shan Chuan Ke’s body.

Locke and the wizard Anthony went straight in.

Upon entering, the wizard Anthony saw that the surroundings were shrouded in mist, within which were some isolated islands. On these islands were different worlds, presumably the human world here.

Wizard Anthony summoned a reed, stood on a huge empty potion bottle, his hands behind his back, his sleeves fluttering in the wind, and rode the flying potion bottle to the sky above an island. His eyes lit up.

“As expected, the natives of this Middle World don’t know how to use the potion ingredients of this world at all, and this Mountain Traveler is said to be the Sea Queen’s golden finger in her youth. But how could the Sea Queen use so many potion ingredients by herself? And this Mountain Traveler is so wary of the Sea Queen. There are so many potion ingredients here.”

“Professor Lucas wants me to strive for first place in every class, to win the Sea Queen’s favor, to make her admire me more than anyone else present. This will have three major benefits. First, I can obtain the true inheritance from the Sea Queen’s side. Second, my teacher may be able to use me to invite the Sea Queen back to the Rainbow Cloud Plateau, or to a better place. Third, it will allow the Sea Queen to directly help me obtain regional funding along the Tianjiang coast.”

“If I could get her help, it would indeed be a great help to me,”

Wizard Anthony pondered. “I originally wanted to compete with those people in the manipulation of Spirit Macros. But I’m not a stubborn person. If this path is blocked, there are other paths. Since some problem with me prevents me from accurately manipulating Spirit Macros and creating Spirit Macro stacks, I’ll use what I’m best at to please the Sea Queen and win this lesson.” “

Anyway, it seems that no one in the entire class will be able to learn Spirit Macro stacking in this lesson.”

Wizard Anthony landed in a forest with his hands behind his back. The local mortals bowed down to him upon seeing him, calling him an immortal. Wizard Anthony,

however, looked at a bamboo shoot in the forest.

“The world within Shan Chuan Ke’s body has undergone a major upheaval. This upheaval will force the world within Shan Chuan Ke to produce magical plants that are useful for treating him. By collecting these magical plants, I can create a potion to temporarily alleviate Shan Chuan Ke’s condition. Although this method is ingenious, it is my current sure-fire way to win.”

Although he didn’t recognize the bamboo shoot in front of him, and it contained hidden magical pressure, he immediately noticed it under the wizard Anthony’s special right eye. He judged from its white surface that this magical plant contained special components that could alleviate Shan Chuan Ke’s illness.

He didn’t need to know what the components were, didn’t need to extract the elements, didn’t need to analyze the mechanism of action, and didn’t need to know the pathway of action. He simply used magical flames to boil it all together.

It would then become a potion to alleviate Shan Chuan Ke’s condition. Although it wouldn’t cure him, it would definitely alleviate his symptoms.

This was the power of the teardrop in the small bottle he had obtained.

Even today, he uses his status to inquire everywhere about the origin of that small bottle, but he still knows nothing. The small bottle is definitely not a modern magical artifact, but he doesn’t know which era’s ancient magical artifact it is either. It’s incredibly powerful; a single tear changed his entire life, making him a genius in potions.

Wizard Anthony used a special knife to pluck the bamboo shoot, then smiled gently, “Mr. Augustine, let me see your true worth this time. Let’s see if you are truly a genius of my caliber.”

On another side of Shan Chuan Ke’s body, on a mortal island, Locke arrived at an island entirely composed of darkness.

There were no mortals left here.

Within this dark world, there was only one powerful figure, who looked down upon everything with disdain.

“Hmm? I thought Shan Chuan Ke wouldn’t allow a first-ring wizard to be born. But hasn’t a vaporization wizard-level being been born here?”

“The other party is so in harmony with the dark world; they must have gained power through visualizing it and assimilated this island into the dark world.”

Locke landed directly on this dark island.

At the same time, an old man with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth blocked Locke’s path, saying, “Young man, you cannot go any further. I am an ancestor of the continent of Ikos. I heard that once you become an ancestor, you will be guided to the Ancestral Realm. But when I arrived here, I discovered that this is not the legendary Ancestral Realm filled with ancestors. This is a dark world.”

The old man continued, “I have fought my way here, battling against dark matter, but I believe this is the source of the dark world. The Dark Ancestor exists here; he is too powerful. In my battle with him, my body was also infected by dark matter. If you approach the source of the dark world, you will also become the Dark Ancestor.”

“Young man, I know that you must be an ancestor to have reached this point. But you must not go any further. You are still young, and you have a much greater chance than I do.”

Locke stood with his hands behind his back, the Great Roaring Dragon Sparrow behind him.

He glanced at the old man’s wound.

“I see, this dark world can infect the normal world.”

Locke’s hand brushed against the wound on the old man’s shoulder. To the old man’s astonishment, Locke had extracted all the dark matter from his wound using an incredible method, and it had fallen into Locke’s hand.

The old man said, “Young man…you…who exactly are you…Could it be that there truly is a new realm beyond the ancestor?”

“Could it be that you have already reached the realm beyond the ancestor?”

Locke glanced at him, offering no reply, and instead placed the dark orb in front of him. Instantly, the dark aura on the dark island before him began to move automatically toward the orb.

“Excellent,”

Locke chuckled. “As long as this dark substance has the tendency to automatically corrupt the normal world, I can simply tweak the potion recipe and add a portion of the dark substance. Let my Nero potion lure out the other’s dark world.”

“Then I can begin refining my Nero No. 2 potion.”

Locke prepared to create a Nero-series potion for himself. The previous one was Nero No. 1, which could split the user into two after consumption.

This No. 2 Nero potion would further enhance the power of the previous No. 1 Nero potion, aiming to further alleviate the symptoms of the Mountain Guest.

Locke took out a Spirit Macro, a super composite Spirit Macro he had synthesized over a week using Synthesis Cubes—a Vampire Cicada Spirit Macro.

Locke looked at the description of the spirit macro: It

used advanced spirit macro modification techniques to combine a Cicada Spirit Macro and a Crimson Vampire Stone Spirit Macro at an exquisite angle, discovering three connection points between the Crimson Vampire Stone and the Cicada Spirit Macro… forming a Y-shaped combination. Therefore, the ritual translated using this spirit macro could cause Nero’s potion to split into an Avatar of Destruction.

Locke said, “Although I don’t yet understand what an Avatar of Destruction is, I can basically guess what it means. Anyway, Lord Mountain Guest is the ancestral god of this world, and a Sun-level existence, he certainly won’t be afraid of such a small potion.”

“The materials are ready, let’s refine it here.”

Locke had just set up a crucible when magical flames appeared at the bottom. Suddenly, a middle-aged man emerged from the darkness before him, his entire body composed of dark matter.

This dark matter formed ginseng tendrils.

“A mere mortal dares to approach my forbidden zone.”

The dark creature sneered, pointing at Locke’s nose. “Foolish! Anyone who comes near me must die.”

“You…”

Locke waved his hand, and the next moment, a massive Star Ring-level magical pressure descended, instantly crushing the man into dust.

“Ridiculous. I don’t have time to entangle with you. A mere vaporization wizard-level magical pressure, and without even a permanent defensive field. Easily defeated.” The ginseng tendrils that were spreading towards Locke, about to inject him with dark matter, were now shattered inch by inch under Locke’s magical pressure.

In a sense, a wizard’s battle is also a battle of magical pressure.

At least in this world’s power system, there’s no question of using techniques.

After this guy died, the entire Dark World Island in front of him began to shatter.

An evolutionary moon appeared in the center of the Dark World Island, and then Locke moved his cauldron to that position. The old man looked at Locke in fear, then clasped his hands in a fist salute and tentatively asked, “May I ask, sir, what is your realm? Could it be that you have reached the realm above Ancestor?”

Locke was taken aback, because this old man wasn’t even a first-level wizard, only possessing close to 800 magic pressure.

The so-called Ancestor seemed to be merely a first-class wizard apprentice.

But oh well, the ancestral gods of this world hadn’t seriously worked on this civilization’s power system, so it was normal for this civilization’s power system to be weak.

Afraid that the old man would disturb him, Locke waved his hand, and the old man retreated continuously, flying backward until he disappeared from sight.

At this moment, Locke raised a fire elemental magic flame under the cauldron, then placed the prepared materials into the cauldron. After three hours of refining, sweat appeared on his forehead, and many cracks appeared on the cauldron. The red magic potion inside the cauldron was churning and boiling like a sea of blood. Immediately, Locke translated the ritualistic action of the Vampire Cicada Spirit Macro. He took out a ritual knife, cut his palm, and then rotated his hand along the scalding edge of the cauldron a third of the way, letting the blood flow into it.

“Is my potion recipe too violent, or is my Spirit Macro too violent? What kind of ritual is this? The damage to the body is too great.”

Locke withdrew his hand, frowning as he looked at the burn on his right palm.

Inside the cauldron, his blood dripped down the cauldron’s wall and into the potion. In an instant, the potion inside boiled, and then the entire cauldron suddenly exploded. At the same time, a dark cloud appeared in the sky, and a power seemed to be gathering strength within it.

Locke took out a Time Crystal Bottle, and the crimson potion automatically flowed into the bottle. Suddenly, a ball of fire fell from the dark cloud towards Locke.

Locke summoned the Crimson Gold Peach and used the Peach Blossom Spell. A golden tree appeared behind him, and countless Spirit Macro images of the Tree of Prosperity transformed into leaves that danced in the wind.

Immediately afterward, he cast a Peach Blossom Spell, sending thousands upon thousands of peach blossoms raining down upon the flames of the magical potion.

“Bang!”

The heavenly fire collided with the peach blossoms.

The entire Sea King world trembled, the magical pressure so immense it shook the three realms and horrified the universe.

On the other side of this world, the wizard Anthony, who had been picking a high-level but seemingly ordinary weed in a meadow, suddenly turned to look at the area behind him where half the sky was ablaze with red.

“How could this be… that is… that is calamity…”

The magical potion ingredients, due to rapid energy interaction and transformation, accumulated too much energy in one place, manifesting as a black cloud at the site of successful potion refinement. Flames or other attacks displaying highly concentrated energy would then descend from within this cloud. This phenomenon only occurs when a potion of a certain level is refined!

Essentially, it’s a ritual.

It’s a price to pay.

By combining a bunch of low-energy-level herbal ingredients with Ling Hong, one can concoct potions with higher energy levels. At lower levels, this isn’t a problem, but at higher levels, the excess energy generated during this conversion transforms into a Cloud of Destruction, appearing above the potion master’s head and unleashing devastating flames.

However, this only occurs when concocting high-level potions.

Therefore, for potion masters, the Cloud of Destruction… in a sense, is a similar marker to the Star Ring.

But…

even a typical second-ring potion master might not be able to trigger a Cloud of Destruction when concocting potions; that’s a marker only Star Ring potions possess. Could it be that Locke Augustine, who hasn’t even obtained his second-ring potion master certificate yet, has already reached the level to concoct Star Ring potions? Wizard Anthony gritted his teeth, then suddenly laughed.

“Outside, both of us were unable to learn Spirit Overlay due to special circumstances. So I couldn’t see your level at all. Now it seems that you are indeed a genius of the same level as me. Locke; Augustine, I acknowledge you, you are indeed qualified to be my opponent.”

Wizard Anthony’s mood was somewhat complicated, but also slightly pleased.

This time, it’s really good. This is only one opponent, and there will be nine more opponents along the Tianjiang River.

I really don’t know what level the others are at, whether they are all at such an exaggerated level, or even stronger than Locke Augustine. Wizard Anthony felt immense pressure.

At the same time, in the Potions classroom of the Rootcrown Courtyard, the Sea Queen saw the familiar destructive power emanating from Mountain Guest.

That was, of course, the power of destruction.

It was something that all high-level potion masters both loved, feared, and hated.

Because once it appeared, it proved that the potion had been successfully made, but once it appeared, the more powerful the potion, the more powerful the cloud of destruction. In other words, the higher a potion master’s level, the stronger the destructive power they would generate when making potions, so potion masters called it the cloud of destruction.

The cloud of destruction from a high-level potion could perhaps reach an extremely exaggerated scale.

The Sea Queen pondered for a moment.

“Was it Locke or that Anthony who completed the refining?”

“This should be a Star Ring-level potion.”

“I knew they could do it. What a disappointment! I thought they were both talentless, and only my Alba could keep up with my lessons.”

“Wait. A novice potion maker usually expends all their magic power when refining a Star Ring potion for the first time, and the Cloud of Destruction isn’t so easy to dispel. The Cloud of Destruction is a form of negative energy generated during potion refining. For it to disappear, the potion maker has to withstand it or destroy the potion, so that the positive and negative energies can be neutralized. Whoever refined it is in great danger now!” The Sea

Queen’s Throne directly rushed into the Mountain Guest’s body.

At the same time, after Locke blocked the first tribulation fire with the Peach Blossom Spell, he discovered, good heavens, there was another tribulation fire following behind the first one!

Locke felt his magic pressure constantly decreasing.

“Damn it.”

Locke frowned. He looked at the dark clouds in the sky, which followed him as he retreated. Immediately afterward, a second calamity fire descended from the dark cloud.

Locke felt the immense heat and the urge to destroy him.

The calamity fire transformed into a fireball, hurtling straight at him.

Locke immediately activated two of his bloodlines, forcibly strengthening his physique.

“Bang!”

He was struck by the calamity fire, turning into a fireball as he plummeted from the sky, crashing towards the mortal realm of the Sea King’s world—the ocean. At the same time, Locke, his wizard robes charred black, stared with one eye at the dark cloud still following him. “That seems to be some kind of negative energy form of the Nero No. 2 potion I have. Is it trying to neutralize the Nero No. 2 potion in my hand? It’s not following me, it’s following the potion in my hand.”

“Troublesome.”

If he were at his peak, he wouldn’t be afraid of this damn thing, but having just concocted his first Star Ring potion, and in a rather unexpected way—in fact, somewhat beyond his current level—he was extremely weak at the moment.

The Sea Queen probably hadn’t expected that she would accidentally create the Star Ring Potion by synthesizing a Rubik’s Cube at this moment.

Therefore, she didn’t even warn herself that this strange contraption would appear after creating the Star Ring Potion.

“Is there going to be a third one?”

Locke, with one eye open, saw the final, terrifying burst of flame about to erupt from the dark cloud. His mind raced, searching for a way to preserve the potion.

Just then, the final flame descending from the cloud was suddenly absorbed by a potion bottle that appeared in mid-air.

The Sea Queen, seeing this, breathed a sigh of relief.

“Thank goodness I made it in time. Locke; Augustine, you rascal, why do you always cause me trouble?”

The Sea Queen’s lips curled into a smile.

“But I like it.”

The Sea Queen looked in Locke’s direction, quickly teleported over, caught Locke, and said to him, “Locke, wake up. You shouldn’t have taken the calamity fire head-on with your bare body. Even bloodline wizards or power wizards wouldn’t dare to do such a thing. Does it hurt? It’s okay, if you’re weak, drink some wine.”

The Sea Queen took out a glass bottle and was about to force Locke to drink it.

Locke immediately wanted to refuse.

The Sea Queen laughed, “That was a joke. It’s just a second-circle potion to speed up your recovery.”

“Drink it quickly.”

At the Golden Crown Mountain, during the academy meeting, the atmosphere was somewhat heavy because the Senate had introduced Antoine, who was showing everyone the superplanet he had found.

At this moment, everyone’s eyes were on the witch Catherine.

Clearly, this was a battle of wits between the Senate and the Academic Committee.

The witch Catherine said, “The development of the Dark World has already begun, but the development of the Super Planet Plane will have to start from scratch… Also, regarding our key laboratory…”

Many of the throne wizards in the Senate smiled.

The Fist King of the Senate suddenly spoke up, “No, Red Dragon Witch. You’re too confident in the key laboratory. Perhaps one day your key laboratory will run into some problems and need repairs? In any case, you can’t use that as a reason to refuse our academy the right to directly accept such a large Super Planet Plane, can you? This is an unprecedented type. Think about how much value the creation mysteries there will bring us!”

“Your Academic Committee can also get a lot of benefits,”

the witch Catherine said with a strange smile.

“We’ll see, Tyrant Fist,”

said Tyrant Fist Throne. “I know that wizard Locke Augustine is very capable. But he’d better keep his attention on the Tianjiang River, after all, that’s our traditional interest. As far as I know, there are quite a few who covet it. If we lose our academy’s traditional sphere of influence, Red Dragon Witch, I don’t think you can explain it.”

Wizard Antoine said, “As many adults have witnessed, this superplanet is indeed unprecedented. I have never seen such a large superplanet before. I even believe that this superplanet has a subterranean world.”
