Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 1041
Chapter 1028 Synthesizing a Super Magical Plant! Storm·Black Tortoise Bamboo!
Cloud Marsh Wetlands, Storm Tower.
Albin Shea, along with the other wizards of the Hands of the Jungle and the Hands of Summoning, and the Sun Ring clone of the Deputy Director of the Environmental Division of the Starfield Sea, disembarked from the wizard’s flying vehicle and ascended the Storm Tower, a floating tower filled with lightning and storms. They were immediately greeted with a warm welcome by the wizards of Storm Tower.
As a top-tier academy located closest to the Starfield Sea and the Tianjiang River coast, Storm Tower was chosen as the forward base to resolve the Demon Winter problem and prevent the Tianhan River from expanding its breach and affecting the entire Tianjiang River.
Therefore, the location of Storm Tower itself was relocated, flying daily towards the Tianjiang River coast and wizarding lands to comply with the plan, acquiring vast amounts of land along the way.

The Deputy Director witch extended her hand to shake hands with a fourth-circle wizard from Storm Tower. “Tower Master, a few days ago I heard that your Storm Tower encountered several wizarding academies and individual wizarding towers that refused to sell their land and refuse to relocate. How come I recently received a report saying that the relocation plan of Storm Tower is going smoothly and will reach the expected location within six months?” The
old Tower Master of Storm Tower, Suss, had a smile on his face.
“Welcome, Director.”
“Storm Tower will fully cooperate with all of Starfield Sea’s plans.”
“After all, I myself have a deep connection with Starfield Sea. Seeing what happened along the Tianjiang River, I really miss it. When I was young, I also experienced these things and even won first place in a similar competition. But every victory inevitably comes at a price.”
Old Tower Master Sus reminisced, “Back then, I was just one of the masses, but now I can look down on them.” “
On another note, the assets of those wizards who refused to have their land acquired by us were attacked by the natural and man-made disasters of the Twin Demon Realms. After their assets depreciated, we at Storm Tower had no choice but to take them over.”
The Deputy Director looked at Old Tower Master Sus with a half-smile.
“Truly worthy of Storm Tower, so noble and virtuous.”
Old Tower Master Sus said briefly, “This is the responsibility that Storm Tower, as the top academy of Cloud Marsh Wetlands, should bear. After all, with great power comes great responsibility.”
At the same time, the witch Albin Thea was on the phone with her mentor, the Throne of Sunlight.
The Throne of Sunlight, a dwarf wizard with a long white beard longer than himself, asked the witch Albin Thea, “I was busy the other day and didn’t see your message. Albin, do you want the specific experimental procedures for extracting the special spiritual energy from the Azure Bamboo magical plant?”
“Is the ecological collapse along the Frost River a serious problem?”
Albin Thea quickly replied, “Yes, teacher. It’s more than just troublesome. The Frost River’s ecosystem has reached its limit; the Frost River has breached its banks, and that wizard’s land is teeming with the dead. I know the dead hate the living, but I don’t know why they’re targeting plants.”
“If the plant ecosystem of the Tianhan River continues to collapse, it could exacerbate the flooding. This is a problem that could be minor or major. Right now, it seems like a minor issue, but we don’t know if it will escalate later. After all, the Tianhan River is the most special of the seven tributaries of the Tianjiang River. It was originally excavated to prevent the Tianjiang River from breaching its banks. But this flood discharge channel has breached its own banks and may even trigger the Tianjiang River to breach its banks. Isn’t this just like what happened at the end of the Great Void Exploration Era?”
“Ecological restoration experts from all over are rushing here,”
said the witch Albin Thea. “But because there is a special competition currently taking place along the Tianjiang River, high-ring wizards, sun-ring wizards, and even moon-ring wizards are being prohibited from entering. These people really don’t know what’s important. Now we can only hope that the competition will end as soon as possible.”
The Throne of Sunlight said angrily, “Targeting plants? The moral standards of the undead are getting lower and lower.”
“Albin, I can give you the experimental procedures you want. But you still need to purchase them.”
“Because this is confidential information, I can’t sell it to you unless you’re my student and happen to need it. I’ve carefully calculated the cost and found it’s at least 35 million magic stones.”
The witch Albin Thea looked strangely at her teacher, who was rummaging through his long, white beard.
“Teacher, do you really remember the experimental procedure and what that spiritual energy was? I suspect you probably don’t remember at all.” “
You just want to sell it for money.”
The Throne of Sunlight coughed awkwardly, stopping his rummaging.
“You’re not in charge, you don’t know how difficult it is to run our academy. I earn a lot, but I have a lot of people to support.”
The witch Albin Thea said, “Teacher, no need. I’ve already prepared the Xuanwu Spirit Breath. I prepared it with a wizard from the Cloud Marsh Wetlands named Locke Augustine.”
The Sun Throne’s face showed surprise.
“You’ve already prepared it?”
“It seems there are excellent young wizards in other realms. In that case, I’ve gone to
unnecessary trouble.” “You’re all alone out there; be careful. I’ve heard the wizards in the Eastern Realm are cunning. Be careful not to be deceived, like someone helping you count money. Little Thea. But if you meet a like-minded wizard, someone with comparable talent, someone you can befriend, then cherish that opportunity. Because on the path of pursuing truth, we are always alone. To meet such a friend is your good fortune, and his good fortune as well.”
The Sun Throne’s expression turned serious.
“Albin Sia, after all, the reason I sent you to the Eastern Frontier is because you obtained a legacy from the past, the Wood Flower, one of the Twelve Flowers. I’ve heard that this thing originated in the Cloud Marsh Wetlands. I’m giving you a task: bring all the information on the Twelve Flowers back to Green Steel City in the Southern Frontier. I’m very interested in the Twelve Flowers legacy, and I think destroying it would be very beneficial to my Extraordinary Branch.”
“Don’t forget your primary task, my little Thea,”
said the witch Albin. “I know, teacher. I’m currently searching for other holders of the artificial flower. But the ecological problems along the Tianjiang River are indeed very serious, and I don’t have the energy to search for any twelve flowers right now. I need to seriously consider how to solve the Tianhan River problem.”
The Sun Throne shook its head and said, “Your thinking like this shows that you have the potential to become a third-ring wizard. It’s just—you’re somewhat confused about priorities. Oh well, whatever.”
The Sun Throne said, “Albin, the fact that you received the inheritance of the twelve flowers proves one thing: you have a hard time with artificial forging. That will be your biggest hurdle.”
The witch Albin Thea looked confused because she was wholeheartedly devoted to the great cause of protecting magical plants, a cause that the Hand of the Jungle was also doing.
Why did her teacher say that she had a hard time with artificial forging?
What exactly was she lacking?
At Golden Crown Mountain, in the Hanging Gardens, Locke’s two clones approached him. Suddenly, the clones transformed into countless spirit macrocosms, which became light and shadow like golden leaves. Then, all the spirit macrocosms returned to Locke’s main body.
Locke frowned, for all the fatigue and pressure accumulated by his clones during this time converged on his main body in that instant.
His teacher was right.
Going to extremely dangerous situations in this state was highly inappropriate.
Now, Locke stood in the Hanging Gardens. Because of the collapse of the White Cardamom Farm, the special privileges he had gained through the two funds had been transferred to the Hanging Gardens, including the right to freely use resources twice.
However, the Hanging Gardens were still in a semi-finished state, ultimately not as usable as the original White Cardamom Farm. But then again, the core of the White Cardamom Farm was corrupted by undead power; no matter how good the equipment there was, he dared not use it.
At this moment, Locke planted an iron tree in the Hanging Gardens. This iron tree stood on the ground like a telephone pole; if someone saw it, they might mistake it for just an iron pole.
“No matter what cultivation method I use, I can’t get this telephone pole to show any signs of flowering. But if I stop supplying nutrients, the branches and leaves of this iron tree will slowly wither, looking like a telephone pole corroded by rust.”
Locke summarized his recent cultivation experience.
The witch Planknia said, “Teacher, perhaps this iron tree needs some special nutrients?”
“Special nutrients?”
Locke pondered, “The green dragon’s true dragon crystal from before could make it take root and sprout. So, either I can directly infuse energy and nutrients into it with high-grade substances, or I can put in more effort to figure out how to make the iron tree flower without using high-grade resources.”
The green dragon crystal was given to him by the green dragon witch.
He couldn’t get any derivatives of true dragons; the only thing he could get was the useless giant dragon crystal.
“Plancknia, fertilize this iron tree again according to the resource list I provided,” Locke said. “Contact me anytime if anything happens. I need to go to the Rain Marsh soon. My clone can’t oversee things in the Hanging Gardens either.”
The witch Plancknia bowed to Locke and said, “Yes, teacher. I will take care of maintaining your experimental field while you are away.”
Locke stroked the branches of the iron tree, frowning.
“This iron tree looks like just an iron rod, but it’s infested with insects. There are some insect eggs on the leaves and branches. Some magical flying insects may have come and parasitized the iron tree. Judging from this, I know it’s iron moth eggs.”
Plancknia immediately became nervous because she was responsible for looking after the iron tree, and now this had happened; it was her responsibility.
She immediately recalled the information about the Iron Moth. Adult Iron Moths are first-ring magical creatures; a few variants can reach the vaporization stage. They possess powerful reproductive capabilities, preferring to lay their eggs on the surface of strong magical plants. Furthermore, their eggs contain various natural magical structural components, allowing them to blend seamlessly with their surroundings in color, aura, and spirituality, making them difficult to detect.
However, most Iron Moth eggs fail to hatch, thus only absorbing the energy of the magical plant.
Iron Moths are attracted to magical plants capable of absorbing large amounts of metal from the earth, and they like to hatch their eggs on these plants, causing the trees to die.
Her expression changed slightly, because this was indeed something she had overlooked.
Locke said, “It’s alright, just buy some insecticide for iron moths and kill them. Iron moths are easy to deal with.”
“But you need to be quick, iron moth eggs hatch very quickly, often completing their growth overnight.
I’m afraid that if I’m not there, you, a vaporization wizard, will have difficulty handling more than one iron moth.”
The witch Planknia nodded and said, “Okay, teacher. I’ll start the extermination work today.”
Locke asked, “How is life outside?”
The witch Planknia paused for a moment, then whispered, “Teacher, thank you for your concern. Compared to life on the cardamom farm, life outside is much more complicated, and there are many more interpersonal relationships to deal with. This has put a lot of pressure on me.”
Planknia tidied her hair.
“But I think I can adapt.”
Locke said, “That’s good.”
Locke turned to look at the grafted Azure Bamboo magical plants he had planted in his one-acre magical field, utilizing the high magical tidal concentration gradient of the Hanging Gardens, which made it easier to cultivate advanced varieties.
Bamboo stalks are merely an intermediate, transitional variety grafted onto the Sun Throne tree to develop extraordinary branches.
This can’t be considered a proper new variety of magical plant, and its ability to draw upon Xuanwu spiritual energy is very weak, even unable to fully absorb and utilize it. It’s not a new variety at all; at most, it’s a magical plant with unique characteristics in the middle stage.
New varieties should at least guarantee consistency and stability.
After learning about the Hanging Gardens, Locke discovered that besides its abundant equipment and resources, its biggest feature was that it was essentially a super-large-scale composite spiritual energy cultivation method—a giant garden paradise.
Any breeder cultivating magical plants here would see their mutations develop positively, adding a new level to their cultivation.
Therefore, Locke planned to utilize the Hanging Gardens’ ability to increase the success rate of magical plant cultivation and elevate magical plants to a higher level, thoroughly cultivating the Xuanwu Bamboo into a stable and more powerful new variety, ensuring a continuous supply of high-quality Xuanwu spiritual energy.
Furthermore, the two key laboratory privileges he had previously obtained through two major funding projects would be converted into two instances of [Garden Spiritual Energy] in the Hanging Gardens.
That is, after the Hanging Gardens elevated his magical plant cultivation once, he could then use the Garden Spiritual Energy to further enhance his magical plant cultivation twice more. This means
that within the cultivation of one’s own magical plants, one can directly elevate the magical plants they cultivate three times.
This implies that an average breeder can instantly become a breeding expert in this Hanging Garden.
And an excellent breeder might be elevated to a breeding genius in this Hanging Garden.
While most wizards in the Hanging Garden do not have the authority to mobilize [Garden Spirit Breath], he has two opportunities to do so.
This gives him the possibility of cultivating a perfect Black Tortoise Bamboo.
At this moment, Locke also feels that the Hanging Garden might indeed be more suitable for the breeders of Golden Crown Mountain.
His teacher’s decision to destroy the original key laboratory in order to build the Hanging Garden was perhaps a very wise move.
This is a week after his return. During this week, Locke has been continuously grafting new subspecies and synthesizing them using synthesis cubes, searching for the most suitable synthesis formula. This morning, he finally found a suitable synthesis formula and discovered a new grafting scheme from it.
In the original grafting process arranged by the Throne of Sunlight, namely the grafting of the three types of Star Ring-level Azure Bamboo magical plants, an additional magical sunlight exposure with a magical resonance frequency of 3160THZ can further strengthen the magical plant and greatly improve the grafting effect.
“3160THZ. When grafting, using this frequency of magical sunlight to illuminate the rootstock and scion can greatly enhance the grafting effect.”
“My initial guess is that the principle might be that this frequency of magic can enhance various mechanisms within the magical plant that are beneficial for grafting.”
Locke pondered, “This is something I determined through synthesizing the Rubik’s Cube. But regarding this frequency, I’ve consulted a lot of data, and no wizard has researched this frequency band. In other words, this is a special functional frequency band that I discovered myself through synthesizing the Rubik’s Cube.” “
I call this cultivation method the Intense Light Cultivation Method.”
“But there are two major problems with using this cultivation method.”
Locke pondered, “First, 3160THZ is an extremely high-intensity magical frequency that even a Star Ring Wizard cannot create on their own. It requires astronomical amounts of energy. A Star Ring Wizard cannot create a magical sun on their own to raise the magical pressure frequency to this level.”
“Even the light of the real sun is difficult to reach this frequency, so it requires a very large energy source to maintain this magical frequency.”
“Secondly, I don’t know if it’s reliable or useful, but it requires a lot of money.”
In fact, he and the witch Albin had already spent all their savings when they were on the wizard airship tracing the cultivation process of the Sun Throne. And now Locke is conducting experiments here, needing to purchase a large number of fast-growing plants of the three types of Star Ring Magic Plants of the Azure Bamboo genus, the plants used for the experiments, for related synthesis.
Even if the fast-growing plants are cheap, he has already spent 20 million magic stones.
This money was obtained through a loan agreement he signed with the Red Dragon Bank in Golden Crown Mountain. The Red Dragon Bank is a private bank established by his teacher, the witch Catherine, and is also the only bank she owns.
So, to perfect a small experiment he casually conducted on the Sun Throne years ago, he has invested a total of 30 million magic stones.
Locke pondered, “Without the Hanging Gardens, I doubt I could have achieved the equipment required for the [Intense Light Cultivation Method]. Fortunately, the Hanging Gardens have a large artificial sun. Using this artificial sun and the Magical Frequency Cultivation Method, I can create this frequency of intense light to strengthen my grafted magical plants.” “
But that would definitely require using the Garden Breath privilege, otherwise I simply couldn’t afford the exorbitant equipment usage fee.”
Locke chanted a spell, simultaneously making complex hand gestures. Instantly, brightly colored sunflowers sprouted from the ground of the Hanging Gardens, facing the sun as if growing towards the light.
A massive magical pressure converged on this magical field.
Planknia shielded her face with her hand, then looked at Locke, who was at the center of the immense magical pressure.
“Teacher—”
“Is this the Garden Breath?”
Inside the Hanging Gardens, many high-ring wizards noticed someone using the Garden Breath, a rare occurrence. This was likely the first time the Garden Breath had been used, attracting considerable attention from the high-ring wizards. After all, they had invested so much; they should expect results.
Catherine the Witch and the Green Dragon Witch were in the Hanging Gardens.
The Green Dragon Witch looked towards the gathering place of the garden’s spiritual energy.
“Katya, someone has used the garden’s spiritual energy we designed. Hopefully, our design will work perfectly. Right now, even the slightest flaw we reveal will be exploited by the Senate, who will attack us fiercely.”
The Black Dragon Witch beside them suddenly spoke up, “In my opinion, we should appoint the first breeder to use the garden’s spiritual energy. This will ensure we don’t make a fool of ourselves. Experimentation and research are inherently uncertain. If something goes wrong, it will give the Senate another chance to revive the situation or make a big fuss about it.”
At this moment, the White Dragon Witch arrived from afar. She descended from the sky, transforming into human form. Her elegant white dragon scales transformed into a white wizard’s robe, with flowing tassels at the end, seemingly formed from a dragon’s tail.
“The Black Dragon Throne makes a good point. But you don’t need to worry too much. I went to check, and the wizard who manipulated the Garden’s spiritual energy is Locke Augustine,”
said the witch Catherine. “It’s him.”
“This child only returned with me less than a week ago, how come he suddenly can manipulate the Garden’s spiritual energy? Oh, I know, it’s probably for the Black Tortoise’s spiritual energy. I told him to rest for a while, really, this child is so busy he just can’t stop.”
Everyone was surprised by the witch Catherine’s affectionate tone towards Locke.
The Black Dragon Throne quickly asked, “What is the Black Tortoise’s spiritual energy? Katya, what do you know?”
The witch Catherine said, “It’s alright. He was probably just using the Hanging Gardens to perfect a grafting experiment on a throne wizard in the Southern Realm. The experiment itself is quite advanced, so you don’t need to worry about any problems.”
Hearing this, everyone relaxed.
The Green Dragon Throne laughed, “It was a false alarm. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now. I need to rush to the Dark World. One of my offspring is currently being besieged by a lord of the Dark World. I’ll go check on the situation.”
The White Dragon Witch also intended to leave.
The Black Dragon Throne showed no sign of leaving. He seemed very uneasy about Locke’s self-determination, so he looked at the witch Catherine and said, “Katya, this is the first time our academy’s breeders have used the Garden Spirit System designed by our Five-Colored Dragon Wizards. I won’t feel at ease unless I see it for myself. Look, the Killer Fist Wizard from the Senate and the Fisher family are also there.”
“I remember the Killer Fist Wizard currently has a conflict with your lineage, apparently because your lineage kidnapped his descendant.”
The witch Catherine said, “Kidnapped? No, it’s not kidnapping. One of the Killer Fist Wizard’s grandsons married Locke’s student, so that grandson automatically joined my lineage. I can’t interfere with the young man’s choice. It’s all voluntary.”
The Black Dragon Wizard, unusually, did not contradict her.
“The Wizard Moromota still carries the lingering resonance of the Sky-Piercing Tree. We can’t let him go to the Senate, otherwise he’ll be like a Damocles’ sword in their hands, specifically designed to restrain us. We must stop the Senate from taking him back, no matter what it takes.” “
So we should go and see him now.” “
I’m not sure if your student can protect his student under the might of the Throne of the Killing Fist.”
Ekaterina said, “Locke isn’t a sycophant.”
The Black Dragon Throne said, “I know he isn’t. But how much resistance can a low-ring wizard have in front of a Throne Wizard? If some shameless people insist on using orders to take back their junior, without our backing, he can’t refuse.”
Ekaterina smiled, “That’s true. The Black Dragon Throne is very thoughtful. Let’s go then.”
The Black Dragon Throne belatedly glanced at Ekaterina.
In the Hanging Gardens, a sun hung high in the sky, its rays, bound by a magical array, shining upon Locke’s acre of magical bamboo being grafted with Azure Bamboo and other bamboo-like magical plants.
The entire nascent Xuanwu Bamboo was wreathed in lightning bolts.
Meanwhile, the rest of the Hanging Gardens were cut off from water and electricity.
The Black Dragon Throne and the witch Catherine stood behind Locke. Catherine raised her hand, placing her finger to her lips, signaling to Pronkenia to remain silent and not to bow, so as not to disturb Locke.
The Black Dragon Throne looked at the bright light in the sky.
“What is that child doing, letting the sunlight shine on the grafted magical plants? Katya, do you know?”
Catherine smiled. “I don’t know.”
The Black Dragon Throne said in surprise, “Using light magic to cultivate magical plants is your forte, your unique method. Wasn’t that what you taught him? You don’t know? Could it be that you didn’t teach him this?”
Catherine said seriously, “We wizards are forever exploring the unknown boundaries.” “
He must have figured this out himself.”
At this moment, the Fist of Slaughter wizard, his hands wrapped in red gauntlets and his face fierce, arrived with Antoine Fisher and the third-circle wizard Fisher.
The Fist of Slaughter wizard crossed his arms and silently looked at Locke’s one-acre magical field not far away.
At this moment, as the strong light shone on the Bamboo of the magical field, lightning crackled around the Bamboo, and some areas began to carbonize due to the strong sunlight. The leaves of the Bamboo began to catch fire, and then, in less than a second, the flames suddenly flared up, and the leaping flames engulfed Locke.
Faced with this unknown situation, Locke could only grit his teeth and continue to manipulate the magic array of the Hanging Gardens, creating a specific frequency of magical sunlight to shine on the Bamboo plant, while using an advanced grafting healing spell to complete the grafting of the Bamboo plant as soon as possible.
After bowing, Wizard Fischer said with a smile, “Greetings, Your Excellencies. We originally came with our juniors to purchase some magical plants for exploring the ancient planet. Unexpectedly, we encountered this situation. It seems a wizard is using the Hanging Gardens’ Garden Aura for the first time. I wonder how effective it has been, given the huge investment in the Hanging Gardens and the loss of a key laboratory.”
“We in the Senate have always worried about this during our meetings, and today we’ll see,”
Witch Catherine glanced at them, a slight smile playing on her lips, then said to Throne Killer, “Then it’s truly a great burden for Throne Killer. Despite being in the Senate, you still dedicate yourself to the academic research of our junior wizards on the Academic Committee. It’s incredibly arduous.”
Antoine frowned as he saw Locke’s Bamboo Shoots completely engulfed in flames and even beginning to carbonize.
“Locke—could this guy have messed up his cultivation?”
“Is this grafting or burning the magic bamboo?”
The Killer Throne, who had remained silent, whispered, “Don’t jump to conclusions so quickly, Antoine. Frivolity will blind you to the truth.”
“The magic pressure of that magic plant is actually increasing instead of decreasing—”
“Interesting.”
The Black Dragon Throne asked the witch Catherine in a low voice.
“Can our Hanging Gardens create a magical sun of that scale? That’s a weapon-grade beam,”
said the witch Catherine. “It can. But it requires mobilizing at least one-third of the garden’s energy. I would normally have restricted this access, but it seems the Hanging Gardens are newly built and have many loopholes, and the team below didn’t plug them in time as I requested.” “
So Locke seized on the loophole,”
said the Black Dragon Throne. “When I first arrived, I saw him use a [Blazing Sun Spell], almost at the second level of light magic, on the magical plant he was grafting. I thought he’d gone mad. But upon closer observation, I found that there was a reason behind his frenzied behavior. Even so, most breeders wouldn’t dare use a magical beam of that frequency on their magical plants.”
“He really isn’t afraid of vaporizing his magical plants.” “
This must be a private cultivation method that uses some kind of high-frequency magical beam to assist in grafting and cultivation.”
“But this is ultimately just a minor approach. It’s too risky,”
the witch Catherine said to Locke.
“For a second-circle wizard, it’s already quite good. And I think there’s still room for further exploration of this technique. When we were young, we used grafting and cultivation methods so many times, but we never once thought of using magical light, which far exceeds the frequency of natural sunlight, to irradiate magical plants.”
“However, it’s amazing he could come up with this idea—no, it’s amazing he dared to do it.”
“It’s good that young people dare to innovate; it deserves encouragement.”
Locke, in the magic field, initially felt a chill when he saw the Bamboo Bamboo completely charred, thinking he had messed things up and wasted an opportunity to use Garden Spirit Breath. But he quickly discovered that the magical pressure of the Bamboo Bamboo was only fluctuating violently; it wasn’t decreasing but rather increasing.
It just seemed that this magical plant was being destroyed.
*Crack!*
With a cracking sound, the carbonized Bamboo Bamboo completely split open, and then a square bamboo, wrapped in storm and lightning and resembling a hook, flew out and landed in Locke’s hand.
A thundercloud appeared in the sky, directly above this brand-new Bamboo Bamboo.
As Locke raised the magical plant to observe the situation, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck from the sky, connecting with the magical plant.
Antoine Fisher’s eyelids twitched at this sight.
“What a powerful magical plant! The power of that lightning bolt just now seemed extraordinary. I felt that if I had been struck, my Absolute Reflection Permanent Defense Field might have been torn apart. Grandpa?”
Antoine looked at the wizard Fisher when he saw that Fisher didn’t respond, only to find Fisher’s expression grave.
Fisher looked at Killer Fist Wizard and Red Dragon Witch, then said, “I’m starting to believe that this young wizard from our Golden Crown Mountain can help us win the Tianjiang Riverfront. Is the strength of that magical plant really something a Star Ring Magical Plant can achieve?” Fisher
said, “I’m not a breeder, I don’t know much about it. But I feel that that lightning bolt was at the level of a Moon Ring Wizard’s strike.” Killer
Fist Throne looked at Red Dragon Witch and Black Dragon Throne.
The Red Dragon Witch remained silent, but the Black Dragon Throne, seeing this, decisively spoke up: “The attack power of that magical plant is likely at the limit of a Star Ring magical plant. As for Mr. Fisher’s claim that it’s close to the magic power of a Moon Ring wizard, that’s not entirely accurate. It was merely residual sunlight energy from the Hanging Gardens shining on it at the plant’s initial stage of growth.” “
The instantaneous magical pressure of that sunlight was probably equivalent to a professional second-circle light magic spell. However, its duration and range of effect far exceeded that of ordinary second-circle light magic,”
the Black Dragon Throne continued. “As for his breeding skills, whether he’s the most outstanding breeder among the younger generation of Mount Golden Crown, I can’t say. After all, Mount Golden Crown has tens of thousands of wizards, many of whom are hidden masters. But he is indeed the most ruthless breeder on Mount Golden Crown. He’s the first wizard I’ve ever seen use the Fiery Sunburst spell on his own grafted magical plant.” “
Many people witnessed this scene today.”
“But I guarantee that no one else will want to imitate him.”
“As for the strength of that magical plant, I’m also very curious.”
“Hmm? That kid seems to have activated the Hanging Gardens’ testing function.”
Seeing everyone looking over, the witch Catherine laughed, “We have a special cooperation with the Dark Great Evil King of the Dark World. The Hanging Gardens has signed an agreement with the Dark Great Evil King. Therefore, when the wizards of Golden Crown Mountain want to test the performance of magical plants, they can activate the Dark Games of the Dark World. Anyway, the creatures of the Dark World also like to watch the Dark Games, and they can’t die in the Dark Games, so it’s a win-win situation for both sides.”
At this moment, Locke was looking at the magical plant in his hand.
This brand-new Xuanwu Square Bamboo basically maintained the shape of a square bamboo, but the whole thing resembled a hook ruler. At the top of the bamboo, it suddenly bent and grew at a ninety-degree angle, and then grew at a ninety-degree angle again, forming a rectangular groove with a barb.
The whole thing resembled a hook ruler that hooked inward.
Lightning was wrapped around this magical bamboo, and the dark clouds in the sky never dispersed, as if the appearance of this magical plant in this world was bound to cause strange phenomena.
“The Intensive Light Cultivation Method can enhance Grafting Cultivation Method by so much!”
Locke mused. “I only used the Intensive Light Cultivation Method, following the method of the Throne of Sunlight, to strengthen the Black Tortoise Bamboo, and it has already reached this level. The Black Tortoise Bamboo seems to be able to fully utilize the Black Tortoise Spiritual Energy, and the special imaginary roots it produces can fully extract the corresponding Black Tortoise Spiritual Energy in battle.
Grafting Cultivation Method, Hybridization Cultivation Method, Insertion Cultivation Method, Magical Frequency Cultivation Method, Finite Element Cultivation Method, Spiritual Energy Cultivation Method—among them, Grafting Cultivation Method is one of the three basic cultivation methods, an indispensable method for every breeder.
Many other sub-types of Grafting Cultivation Method have also been derived from this method.
And since my Intensive Light Cultivation Method is so powerful, it means that I can use it to enhance any magical plant cultivation I do in the future, especially during grafting cultivation. This represents a qualitative leap in my grafting cultivation method and the entire level of breeding science.
Furthermore, it’s very likely that I am the only one who has mastered the Intensive Light Cultivation Method.”
Locke, eager to test the power of the Black Tortoise Bamboo and the power of the Black Tortoise’s spiritual energy, recited the Dark Garden Pact as taught by the witch Catherine.
Instantly, the sunflowers blooming on the grass beneath his feet turned dark one by one.
A black wind appeared around him.
A huge dark vortex suddenly descended before him, and above his head, pairs of eyes filled with mockery and anticipation appeared in the sky.
“It begins, it begins, the Dark Game has begun again.”
“Who is the sacrifice for darkness this time?”
A massive, towering Dark Bull Lord appeared before Locke. This bull was a Star Ring-level Dark Lord, perfect for testing Locke’s magical plants.
But the next moment, the Dark Bull Giant suddenly screamed, and a huge hand grabbed it, crushing it instantly and banishing it from the Dark Game.
In the sky, among countless eyes, a gigantic eyeball filled with malice appeared—the Dark Great Evil King.
“Lock Augustine, you chose the path to hell, not heaven. Hahaha—since you chose to step into the Dark Garden testing grounds, don’t blame me.”
“What is the Dark Bull Lord? How could he be worthy of being a test subject for your magical plants?” “
This Great Evil King personally selected opponents for you from the darkness. Rest assured, they all comply with the rules.”
The Great Evil King stretched out his hand, and within the darkness, stars seemed to shift, as if a star world was moving deep within the Dark World. Then, a being appeared, possessing 23,000 magic pressure, far surpassing the previous Dark Bull. But it wasn’t just one; then came a second, a third—and it seemed to be increasing, each with 23,000 magic pressure. This seemed to be the strongest Dark Lord the Great Evil King could provide Locke within the rules.
The Great Evil King grinned maliciously.
“It seems there are still quite a few loopholes to exploit in this Hanging Garden of Golden Crown Mountain.”
The other dark creatures were delighted to see this and laughed along. They loved watching both Locke’s and the Great Evil King’s antics.
Meanwhile, the Killing Fist Wizard looked at the Red Dragon Witch and said, “Red Dragon, your Hanging Gardens is quite good, but the testing function has a problem. This Great Evil King has too many of his own limitations. This needs adjustment.”
The Red Dragon Witch knew he was right, but admitting it now would likely invite a concentrated attack from the Senate.
Sometimes it’s not that you don’t know you’re wrong, but that you can’t admit it.
The Red Dragon Witch curled her lips.
“No need for adjustment. I think this precisely demonstrates the flexibility of my Dark Gardens testing system. This Great Evil King is selecting suitable test subjects for Locke. That Demon Bamboo certainly can’t be tested with ordinary creatures.”
“Black Dragon, it seems our system is very successful.”
The Black Dragon Throne hesitated, considering whether to trust Locke. If Locke were to be beaten too badly by the dark creatures later, and he accepted the Red Dragon Witch’s advice now, he would become a clown.
The Black Dragon Throne pondered for a moment, then said, “Yes, it was incredibly successful. It completely penetrated the hidden strength of the test subjects, and as a result, we readjusted and established the testing scope.”
Wizard Fisher listened with skepticism, but after all, these were the statements of two throne wizards.
“Could it be that this really isn’t a system loophole?”
Antoine exclaimed, “The Academic Committee’s testing system is amazing. It seems that our Golden Crown Mountain has gained another magical resource that outsiders envy.”
Wizard Fisher looked at Locke with a complex expression.
Wizard Killer Fist suddenly spoke up, saying decisively, “No, this is a design flaw on your part. You still want to hide it from me? Many details of the Hanging Gardens still have problems. That’s to be expected, after all, it’s only a large framework that has just been established. But you want me to admit that what happened just now was a normal adjustment by the system itself, I can’t do that.”
“Red Dragon, Black Dragon.”
The Red Dragon Witch didn’t say anything.
But at this moment, the Black Dragon Throne sneered, glancing at Locke’s side.
“No, this is within the system’s normal functional range. Just you wait and see.”
The Black Dragon Throne secretly transmitted its message to the Red Dragon Throne using magic. “
Katya, contact the Dark Lord and ask him to go easy on me.”
When the Red Dragon Throne turned to look at the Black Dragon Throne, the Black Dragon Throne displayed a confident expression.
The Red Dragon Throne replied with encryption magic: “I want to see how Locke will handle this first. There’s no need to resort to such methods.” The
Black Dragon Throne immediately looked at the Witch Yekaterina. He wanted to say something, but seeing the Killing Fist Throne scrutinizing him, he opened his mouth but said nothing.
