Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 733

Chapter 730 The Curse of the Fiery Tree and Silver Flowers

– The Silent Plane.

Lead-gray clouds fell like rotting cotton, the last ray of light swallowed by the torrential rain. The sounds of cities being destroyed echoed across the land.

Even the canopy of the mental network swayed in the storm.

Factories, furnaces, and industrial cities were all being destroyed.

In the apocalypse, everything in the Silent Plane’s civilization seemed so fragile; when the world was destroyed, even those cities would be easily swept away like duckweed.

But most strangely, eerie blue lights appeared on the retinas of the people in these cities. Faced with the apocalypse, most of them did not flee, but rather accepted it.

A few who were not infected by the disc-shaped creatures, mostly children and teenagers, watched in terror as those who had stopped resisting ceased their resistance, not knowing what to do. The

surrounding area was filled with torrential rain.

The cold rain continued to fall, just like the relentless downpour that had lasted for ten thousand years.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Silent Plane…

In the pouring rain, Edgar’s saintly avatar approached Locke and spoke directly: “It’s come to an end. Locke, aren’t you curious why this plane is destined for destruction? Why was that disc-shaped creature able to descend so quickly?”

“Why couldn’t the Silent Witch save this plane a thousand years ago?”

the wizard Edgar asked. “I have a suggestion, though I’m not sure if I should. Let’s cooperate.”

Locke replied, “Okay.”

The wizard Edgar was taken aback. “You agreed so easily?”

Even Edgar thought that the chances of getting Locke to agree to cooperate were slim, and that it would require considerable persuasion, but he hadn’t expected Locke to agree so readily.

Locke looked at Edgar and said, “I want to know why Omega can interfere with my magical realm.”

Edgar was silent for a moment, then said, “Then use your Moon of Evolution to illuminate my Perfect Tree. If you do that, my Perfect Tree will become the ecological community of your Moon of Evolution.”

The wizard Edgar spoke in a deep voice, “Before I approached you, I wanted to exchange a piece of information with you to get your agreement to a deal. Equivalent exchange is our wizarding principle.”

“But I didn’t expect you to agree so easily,”

Edgar said. “When I saw your Moon of Evolution, I was thinking. Your Moon of Evolution is a supreme, ultimate magic for botany. The spells you added—the Moon Goddess Blessing Charm, the Cycle of Generations—these spell models, already old-fashioned in botany, have given this ultimate magic a new vitality and imbued them with new value.”

“Therefore, what would happen if your Moon of Evolution shone on a supreme magical plant?”

“Moreover, I have an idea for the evolution of the Tree of Life, which I haven’t been able to realize. But after seeing your Evolution Moon, I feel there’s a way to achieve it.”

“So, I’ll help you perfect your Evolution Moon!”

Edgar handed Locke a spell model. “This is the spell I designed, ‘Fire Tree Silver Flower Spell’!”

Locke quickly flipped through the spellbook Edgar had given him and immediately understood what it was.

This was clearly part of the “Return to the Tree” spell, the essence of which was to give a magical plant a special fire attribute.

Edgar developed this spell probably to give his Tree of Life a fire attribute. From Edgar’s thinking, Locke deduced that he seemed to want the “Return to the Tree” spell model to have a furnace for processing the energy of all things returning to the tree.

In this way, the Perfect Tree would no longer be a filter of death spirit.

In fact, this would give the Perfect Tree more ability to deal with death energy, and even form a preliminary destination.

‘If the Perfect Tree has a fire attribute, following this line of thought, it will form a filter of death spirit, and if it continues to develop, if it reaches the solar ring stage, the Perfect Tree might even… constitute a complete cycle.’ “

Then the Tree of All Things can be said to be truly perfect.”

Locke saw through Edgar’s thinking. If his Evolutionary Moon was developing towards the evolution of plants, then Edgar’s [Tree of All Things] was developing towards the cyclical nature of plants.

The two could be said to have embarked on different parts of botany at the second ring stage.

But at this moment, the two decided to cooperate.

Edgar said, “Although the Fire Tree Silver Flower Spell has been successfully developed, it cannot truly give my Ancient Tree of Life the attribute of fire. It can only temporarily attach the power of fire to my Ancient Tree of Life, and the two temporarily merge, creating the illusion that the Ancient Tree of Life has permanently acquired the attribute of fire. But after seeing your Evolutionary Moon, I think this magic can be completed through the Evolutionary Moon.”

“This is my intuition. See if you can complete it, Locke.”

Locke nodded slightly. He quickly flipped through the Fire Tree Silver Flower Spell and knew that the Fire Tree Silver Flower Spell was the same spell that permanently enchanted the Ancient Tree of Life.

The entire first ring stage of botany and breeding science could not forcibly add attributes to a magical plant permanently.

But at the second ring stage, this became possible.

But usually, it’s just enchanting, giving a magical plant a different attribute, either permanently or temporarily, through botanical magic.

Unfortunately, Edgar doesn’t need something like simply enchanting a plant with an attribute, not even permanently.

He needs the Ancient Tree of Life to truly generate the fire attribute.

That requires a change at the plant’s essence level.

Edgar’s overall research approach is clearly completely wrong; in evolutionary biology, he’s certainly not as far ahead as I am.

After going in the wrong direction, all his subsequent research has been completely misguided.

It’s like taking the wrong path at a fork in the road; no matter how hard he tries or how fast he accelerates, he’s only going further down the wrong path.

Locke thought for a moment, but the Evolutionary Moon, using only the Moon Cultivation Method, could indeed use this [Fiery Tree and Silver Flowers] technique to complete a magical plant’s transformation at the plant’s essence level.

Because the Moon Cultivation Method allows dimensional information to flow back into the magical plant, absorbing external information, and once the Fire Tree Silver Flower is associated with the Moon of Evolution, the enchanted information created by the Fire Tree Silver Flower can be enchanted and transferred into a magical plant.

Locke even thought of more, because the Fire Tree Silver Flower spell is like an enchanted knife, and the Moon Cultivation Method can force plants to expose their plant essence externally and absorb all information from their surroundings.

The information from the surrounding planes was still on the enchanted blade.

He could use the Fire Tree Silver Flower spell as a medium to infuse other plant attributes into the enchanted plant, thus giving it multiple attributes.

Of course, this would have to be studied in detail after the competition.

If the Moon Cultivation Method could force plant essence to expand externally, then the Fire Tree Silver Flower spell was like a tool, allowing him to add the information he needed when using the Moon Cultivation Method.

Or even… to cut away the information he didn’t need.

Locke looked up at Edgar. The idea Edgar had given him had saved him ten to twenty years of research time and significantly advanced his magical progress.

In fact, without Edgar, he wouldn’t have even realized that enchanting spells from botany could optimize the Moon Cultivation Method, and that the Fire Tree Silver Flower enchanted blade could be used to construct the plane information he needed and didn’t need.

Locke was deeply moved. Edgar truly deserved to be the wizard he knew with the highest talent in breeding.

After discussing with him for a while, his ideas about the Evolutionary Moon became more refined.

Locke said, “Edgar, your ultimate magic lacks the necromancy part. To complete your idea of the Tree of Reincarnation, you need a lot of necromancy knowledge.” Edgar

nodded and said, “I know. But there is a serious conflict between the Life School and the Necromancy School. If I learn necromancy, I will only make myself look like a monster.”

“I want to use the plant cycle part of the Life School’s botany to replace the magic of the Necromancy School.”

Locke said, “That’s possible, but it’s a bit of a stretch. Do you know archaeology?”

Locke briefly explained archaeology, and Edgar’s eyes lit up as he listened.

Locke said, “Archaeology can also fill this gap in your knowledge. If you can possess first-level archaeology magic, then your idea of ultimate magic can probably be completed.”

“Let’s make a deal. I have a copy of first-level archaeology knowledge here. Consider it my exchange for your Fire Tree Silver Flower Spell.”

Locke snapped his fingers, and the Legendary History Book appeared, summoning the archaeological information, which was a ball of light, and completed the exchange with Edgar.

Locke quickly reviewed the Fire Tree and Silver Flower Spell and, with the help of Antoine and the Preston witch, completed it.

A moon of evolution shone upon the Perfect Tree. Since this time there was no need to evolve a first-ring magical plant into a second-ring one, Locke only needed to draw 10% of the Zero-point potion from his group of treants and inject it into the Perfect Tree.

The moonlight of the Evolution Moon flowed, and the Perfect Tree automatically entered a state of releasing plant essence and absorbing information from the external plane.

At this moment, a huge uproar erupted among the audience below the Silent Throne.

The Silent Grail War had been held for over two hundred years, but never before had any contestants cooperated at the last minute.

The wizards of Cloud Marsh Wetlands were extremely competitive; everyone wished they had forty-eight hours in a day.

Performance was the highest metric in this wizarding land.

Therefore, in all the Silent Grail Wars held, no contestant who reached this stage had ever chosen to cooperate; they all tried their best to achieve victory as quickly as possible!

And this year, for the first time, two contestants chose to cooperate!

Wizards from this wizarding land are accustomed to fierce competition; they prioritize efficiency in competitions.

Therefore, no wizard had ever chosen to cooperate during the apocalypse of the Silent Dimension.

But Locke and Edgar were neither native wizards of Yunze Wetland!

This year’s Silent Holy Grail competition had two contestants who weren’t native wizards, which was already unusual.

Moreover, they had fought to the very end.

For Edgar and Locke, wizards who had fought their way up from lower-level wizarding lands, the competition itself was important, but the meaning behind it was even more crucial.

This was something the wizards of Yunze Wetland couldn’t understand, hence their strong reaction.

Chad and Rush, both previous participants and native wizards of Yunze Wetland, couldn’t comprehend why Locke and Edgar would cooperate now, or what the basis for their cooperation was!

The competition arena was abuzz with discussion.

The seven Sun Ring wizard judges exchanged glances, all seeing surprise in each other’s eyes.

Even they hadn’t expected things to develop this way.

“How many Silent Grail Wars have been held? I’ve never seen contestants cooperate at the last minute. Have they forgotten this is a competition? The apocalypse might not have been their concern.”

“These two are incredibly competitive. In my estimation, they genuinely want to solve the apocalypse problem. It’s hard to believe, but that’s the biggest basis for their cooperation. Otherwise, they have no reason to cooperate at this point.”

“This… this trait is something that the native wizards of Yunze Wetland rarely possess. It’s truly surprising.”

“That’s why Yunze Wetland needs to absorb talented wizards from outside, to inject fresh blood into our Yunze Wetland.”

In the Silent Plane, the Perfect Tree was enveloped in moonlight. Under the Moon of Evolution, it received a large amount of information from the Fallen Rain Realm. Because it was a second-ring level magical plant, it couldn’t withstand the pressure. At the

same time, flames gradually appeared on the branches and leaves of the Perfect Tree.

It possessed the attribute of fire.

One set of Rain Realm plant essence and one set of fire plant essence were programmed into the Perfect Tree’s plant essence sequence by Locke.

This caused moon and flame patterns to appear on the Perfect Tree.

The Perfect Tree seemed to transform into a fiery tree, releasing dazzling light in mid-air, like a tree in flames radiating the brilliance of the sun.

Having adapted to the Rain Realm environment, the Perfect Tree directly activated “All Things Return to the Tree,” and in an instant, all the water in the Silent Dimension flew towards it.

Edgar witnessed this and grinned.

“Hahahaha… Locke, I’ll admit you won this time. Your Evolution Moon, as a great botanical magic, is truly amazing.”

“It actually managed to give my Perfect Tree both water and fire attributes!”
