Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 486

Chapter 484 The Essence of Great Magic

The great wizard Sura gritted his teeth and took each step up, feeling his body under tremendous pressure. He had walked up the stairs from the ground to the entrance of the Hall of Mage Saints countless times before.

Never cared, never stopped.

He thought that it was an easy task for him, but now, when he walked this distance again, he found that every step on this road that he was very familiar with was so difficult for him.

“The World Stone… Only when I obtain the World Stone and contaminate it, will my ultimate magic be truly complete.” Great Wizard Sura gritted his teeth. He seemed to have thought of something and looked up at Locke and said, “Locke, if you are watching now, or if you see it later, no matter what, you will have witnessed the entire process of my advancement to a second-ring wizard.”

“I have to tell you, I guessed wrong before. Although that guy Uriel has some tricks up his sleeve and created a child of prophecy, even if he gathered all the luck in this plane, he can’t defeat me.”

“I am the one who bestowed upon this plane thirty Mage Saints and over ten thousand Mages. This world has become more complete because of me. I am so important to this world. This medium-sized plane, the smallest standard world, is like a pond. I already occupy the majority of it. Even if all the remaining luck were gathered together, how could they stand against me?”

“I am a system of mages all by myself,” said the Great Wizard Sura. “I am the pinnacle of mages, and today I will become a God of Magic. In our world, a second-ring wizard is a second-transcendent being, but I’ve consulted ancient texts and know that a first-ring wizard is essentially someone who hasn’t ignited the divine fire, but has already generated divinity, and the amount of divinity is enough to support them becoming a demigod.”

“A second-ring wizard corresponds to a true god who has ignited the divine fire but has not yet condensed his godhood. That is not the spirit of the world, nor the spirit of faith worshipped by the world’s indigenous people, or some elemental spirit, but a true god, a true god that has long disappeared…”

“So, a second-ring wizard is a god,” Great Wizard Sura said affirmatively. “In the Great World of Truth, I am a second-ring wizard, and in the Mage Plane, I truly deserve to call myself the God of Mage.”

The great wizard Sura seemed to be extremely excited. He said, “My previous anxiety was completely wrong. I am about to succeed. You will witness my success.”

The great wizard Sura gritted his teeth and finally walked into the Hall of the Holy Mage. He pushed open the heavy door of the Hall of the Holy Mage. The door to the world seemed to be closed to him forever, so it exerted a force of resistance.

Not moving at all.

“Open it for me!” The great wizard Sura used all his strength to forcibly impact the world gate. At this moment, all the lives in the entire mage plane trembled in their hearts and looked involuntarily in the direction where the world hall was descending. Every life felt uncomfortable in their hearts.

The soul of the great wizard Sura was further shattered during the confrontation, but fortunately… the door to the world was finally opened.

“Bang~”

Behind the gate of the world is a stone that looks like a moon rock, with a golden sacred ring surrounding it. That is the appearance of the world’s power being forcibly reduced in dimension and materialized, and then gathered together.

Great Wizard Sura’s eyes revealed an expression of great joy. “Hahahaha…”

“After years of hard work, I have finally waited for this day. A century of waiting has finally culminated in today’s harvest. After becoming a Second Ring Wizard, I, Sura Plutarch, will devote all my energy to reforming the Six Towers, ridding them of their decay and allowing them to regain new life.”

The great wizard Sura walked over and placed his palm on the World Stone. The World Stone originally only appeared at the core of the world, that is, at the bottom of the wizard’s plane.

That is a difficult area to reach.

The center of the earth is extremely dangerous and cannot be easily reached, so it is necessary to use the method of [Summoning the World Hall] to indirectly force out the World Stone.

In a sense, the World Stone is the core of the entire mage plane and the earth’s core of the mage plane.

The great wizard Sura decisively pressed his palm on it. Unexpectedly, the world gate was so resistant to the great wizard Sura before, but at this moment the world stone was not as resistant as he expected.

“Yes, at this moment, I have almost completely wiped out the demon system, and it is no longer a force to be reckoned with, while my magic system is thriving. Whatever Uriel has in store, it is too late.”

“I currently hold the greatest favor in this world. I am practically the spokesperson for the world’s will. As such, I will place my mark on this World Stone, contaminating one-third of it with my soul. I will then place this contaminated World Stone into the prototype of my ultimate magic. At this instant, my ultimate magic will be complete.”

“Become a source of magical power that belongs only to me.”

“That is the characteristic extreme magic of the second-ring wizard, also known as the source of magic!”

“Inject a portion of my split soul into the World Stone, and let the World Stone combine with the prototype of my utmost magic. At that moment, my utmost magic will become a split soul of mine. Although it is not inside my soul, it is indeed a part of my soul.”

In reality, when Locke saw this scene, he immediately understood how the wizard civilization achieved its second transcendence.

After a transcendence, the tricks of permanent defense field and enhancing the upper limit of soul shell were used and failed, so the method of creating a second soul and forming the source of magic was adopted.

In this way, the ultimate magic is the wizard’s second soul, just like his current abyss energy and forest sanctuary, which can be used as external magic pressure to increase himself.

But the relationship is more subtle.

Because neither the abyss energy nor the forest sanctuary can help him break through the magic pressure exceeding 9999.

However, the great magic as one’s second soul can do this.

When the magic pressure of one’s own body and the magic pressure of the second soul are superimposed together, the magic pressure can exceed 9999.

Locke instantly realized why the black wizard Uriel had said before that even for a second-ring wizard, it would still be a problem if one’s own power would attack one’s own power, and it needed to be solved throughout the entire second-ring stage.

“Using this method means that part of your power is separated from your true self to a certain extent, which creates an opportunity for you to take advantage of.”

“Of course, I haven’t fully understood what Maximum Magic is yet, so the relationship between Maximum Magic and the soul is likely even closer than I thought. Otherwise, wizards would surely use other methods to achieve secondary transcendence. Since everyone has chosen this method, it must be because it has its own unique advantages.”

“But from my current knowledge, I might be able to see something that those second-ring wizards cannot see in the vast amount of knowledge and information. There is always a certain degree of separation between the soul and the source of one’s magic. This is objectively speaking.”

Locke paused the True Vision Crystal display. “But if you think about it carefully, there seems to be an advantage to Maximal Magic. Maximal Magic is a man-made construct, an external source of magic. This means it’s easier to modify your own Maximal Magic.”

“All the technologies possessed by wizard civilization can be applied to the Great Magic and transformed without worrying about overly radical transformations threatening the original body, or too many transformations causing problems with the original body.”

“Any technological development can be immediately applied to my own ultimate magic, and the error tolerance rate is very high. This is only the benefit I have seen so far. There must be advantages that I cannot see.” Locke pondered: “But why is it that a wizard can only possess one ultimate magic?”

“Oh right, just seeing here, it seems that the great wizard Sura is about to succeed. What happened next?”
