Lu Feng, who had transmigrated to the Wizard World decades ago, saw no hope of advancing to a First-Order Wizard. With regret, he returned home in glory, back to his native secondary continent, int...

Hearing this, Tia rested her chin on her hand, was silent for a moment, and then said in a slightly serious tone:
"Rester, I know that you found some opportunities on the secondary continent, which allowed you to complete the first step to become a first-level formal wizard, the liquefaction of mental power."
"But you should also know that for a qualified first-level wizard, liquefaction of mental power is only the beginning."
"There are two more stages: condensing the soul seed and solidifying the witchcraft model in the soul seed."
"Both stages require intermediate meditation to guide you and many resources to pave the way. If you don't return to the tower, the road ahead will be difficult!"
Teacher Tia's earnest persuasion made Lu Feng a little moved.
But the next moment, he nipped the urge to return to the tower in the bud.
Lu Feng naturally knew the two iconic stages of a first-level official wizard.
After the mental power is liquefied, there are two extremely important stages: condensing the soul seed and solidifying the witchcraft model in the soul seed.
These two steps are to transform the life of a first-level formal wizard, truly transcend the mundane world and control supreme power.
The intermediate meditation method is to use secret methods to condense the power of the soul and form an ocean of spiritual power in the spiritual space with a soul seed as the core.
And solidify a first-level witchcraft in the soul seed, making it a innate witchcraft.
With the ocean of spiritual power as the source, an energy circuit is formed in the body, allowing a first-level formal wizard to instantly solidify the innate witchcraft in the soul seed.
When the ocean of spiritual power with the soul seed as the core takes shape, the wizard apprentice will truly transform into a first-level formal wizard, and his own soul will continue to grow stronger under the nourishment of the ocean of spiritual power.
As the soul becomes increasingly powerful, the wizard can use various methods to continuously strengthen his body, prolong his lifespan, and allow his life essence to continue to develop in an extraordinary direction.
A true and formal wizard not only has a strong mental force and can manipulate elemental energy to cast spells, but their physical body is also extremely powerful, comparable to many extraordinary creatures. In an environment where they cannot cast spells, they can pick up weapons and be comparable to extraordinary creatures of the same level.
Even without using any spells, those formal wizards at the peak of the first order could be immune to 99% of the apprentice-level 0 spells just by relying on their physical strength.
A formal wizard, skilled in both magic and physical skills, extremely fierce.
Of course, to become powerful, one also needs the assistance of various resources. When practicing intermediate meditation, one needs the assistance of secret medicine in conjunction with meditation to increase the speed of practice.
When solidifying the innate witchcraft, various precious resources are needed to build and condense the energy circuit.
The way of the wizard does not yet have the ability to create something out of nothing and to create resources for cultivation.
As far as Lu Feng is concerned, what Teacher Tia said is right, if he insists on staying in the Trandi secondary continent.
The secondary continent is short of resources. Even if he has the intermediate meditation method, he cannot gather the secret medicine needed to practice the intermediate meditation method, and he cannot find the precious resources to build the energy circuit. Although Lu Feng has completed the first step now, he may be stuck at the threshold of a first-level formal wizard for his entire life.
"Teacher Tia, I understand this truth, but there are still some things on the Trandi Secondary Continent that I cannot give up for the time being. Please forgive my willfulness. I still want to stay on the Secondary Continent for a while to deal with some miscellaneous matters!"
Lu Feng once again rejected Teacher Tia's persuasion, but he also made a promise to Tia:
"Teacher Tia, I will give you fifteen years. No matter what happens on the secondary continent, I will return to the Green Tower!"
After hearing Lu Feng's promise, Tia's expression improved a little.
Fifteen years is indeed nothing considering that the lifespan of a first-level formal wizard is often three to four hundred years.
Tia is now a formal third-level wizard, and is stuck on the threshold of advancing to a fourth-level wizard. She has more than a thousand years to live.
Tia is only over 450 years old now, which is considered young among the third-level wizards.
Lu can afford the wind and waves, and Tia and the green tower can also wait.
"That's fine. Since you want to stay in the secondary continent for a while, I won't force you. I can help you exchange the intermediate meditation method you want!"
After revealing this matter, Tia became concerned about Lu Feng's choice of meditation method.
"My Verdant Tower was inherited from the Botanical Garden. It contains three intermediate meditation methods from the Botanical Garden and four meditation methods I obtained during my previous adventures. If you choose the meditation method inherited from the Botanical Garden, I can be your guarantor and apply for the exchange on your behalf. If you choose the meditation method I obtained during my adventures, I can give it to you immediately!"
As she spoke, Tia introduced Lu Feng to the seven intermediate meditation methods of the Green Tower.
[Green Spiritual Wood Meditation], [Ancient Rock Meditation], [Glorious Radiance Meditation]
[Spirit-Resting Demonic Vine Meditation Method], [Northern Ice Phoenix Meditation Method], [Abyssal Demon Prison Meditation Method], [Breath of Nature Meditation Method].
The first three meditation methods come from the [Botanical Garden], corresponding to plant affinity, earth element affinity, and light affinity respectively.
These three doors have inheritance sequences in the [Botanical Garden], and there are higher-level meditation methods above them.
The last four doors are the meditation methods inherited by Teacher Tia during her adventures outside.
The Soul-Parking Demon Vine and Breath of Nature are both plant-friendly meditation methods.
Beiyou Ice Phoenix has an affinity with the ice element.
The Abyss is suitable for those with shadow affinity.
These four doors were only obtained by Tia occasionally, and there was no subsequent inheritance.
If he chooses these four meditation methods, after Lu Feng cultivates to the third-level wizard, he will still need to find subsequent advanced meditation methods on his own.
Tia provided seven meditation methods, but Lu Feng, who was naturally friendly to plants, had only three choices.
Verdant Spiritual Wood Meditation Method, Spiritual Demonic Vine Meditation Method, Breath of Nature Meditation Method.
These three meditation methods each have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they also require the assistance of suitable secret medicines when practicing.
The secret medicine used in the Green Spirit Wood Meditation Method is the sawdust from the energy-absorbing ancient tree, while the Spirit Demon Vine Meditation Method and Breath of Nature require the Spirit Demon Vine and natural breathing as secret medicines respectively.
The sawdust from energy-absorbing ancient trees is best found in tall, verdant towers.
The verdant tower was built on a leaf of an ancient energy-absorbing tree. In the [Botanical Garden], the debris of the ancient energy-absorbing tree was everywhere.
As for the Soul-Parachuting Demon Vine and Natural Breath, the former is an extremely disgusting supernatural plant, and the latter requires collecting the breath of plants from thousands of trees, and goes through several processes to condense a natural breath.
Both secret medicines are difficult to obtain, and if you buy them with magic stones, the cost is also quite high.
In addition, Lu Feng has a sapling of an ancient energy-absorbing tree in his hand. Even if Lu Feng does not return to the Green Tower, he can temporarily cut some sawdust from the sapling of the ancient energy-absorbing tree and make it into a secret medicine for the Green Spirit Wood Meditation Method.
What's more, the Green Spirit Wood Meditation Method is in the [Botanical Garden], and there are subsequent advanced meditation methods inherited.
The future development is much higher than the other two meditation methods that have no follow-up.
Lu Feng chose the "Green Spiritual Wood Meditation Method" without much thought.
"Yes, Rest, you are right to choose the Green Spiritual Wood Meditation Method! My main meditation method is also this Green Spiritual Wood. We have the botanical garden behind us, whether it is for future development or for the initial introductory practice, this meditation method will save countless efforts and magic stones!"
Tia nodded with relief, agreeing with Lu Feng's choice.
"Well, I will submit your application for practicing the Green Spiritual Wood Meditation Method. According to the efficiency above, it will take about five to ten days for the approval process. At that time, the wizards of the Botanical Garden will also review you and confirm your qualifications for practice."
"Thank you, teacher! However, I am still in the secondary continent. Will it affect the qualification review of the [Botanical Garden]?"
Lu Feng nodded and thanked the teacher for his help, and also asked a key question.
[Green Spirit Wood Meditation Method] can be regarded as one of the core inheritances of the [Botanical Garden]. Although it is widely spread, Lu Feng still needs to be reviewed by the wizards of the [Botanical Garden] if he wants to practice it.
What Lu Feng was worried about was that he was in the secondary continent and he didn't know how the wizards in the botanical garden would review him. If he was allowed to go back to the botanical garden, it would be troublesome.
"Don't worry. The distance from the Botanical Garden to the Trandi Sub-Continent is not a problem at all for those old guys in the Botanical Garden. They have a way to solve it! Restricted by the contract, I can't tell you. When you hear the words 'Tree Life Eternal', you will naturally know it!"
Tia patiently explained to Lu Feng, then left the crystal ball and went to apply for Lu Feng's qualification to practice the Green Spirit Wood Meditation Method.
Teacher Tia left, and the cute little Roco, wearing a round hat, went into the crystal ball again. His bright eyes turned and he said with a smile:
"Rester, Teacher Tia just assigned me a task. She asked me to deliver five pieces of sawdust from the energy-absorbing ancient tree to you. She said that she would prepare secret medicine for you after you learn the intermediate meditation method. Where is the Trandi secondary continent where you are? Tell me the location and I will deliver it to you!"
Hearing Luo Ke's clear voice, Lu Feng came back to his senses from what Teacher Tia said, stared at Luo Ke and said with a smile:
"You haven't been in the Green Tower for too long, and you're looking for a chance to sneak out and have some fun, right?"
"Hehe, Brother Lei still understands me the best!! I have been in the Verdant Tower for many years, and recently I have encountered a bottleneck in my mental growth. Teacher Tia also agreed that I should go out for a walk and gain some experience! It's just the right time to help you deliver something!"
Luo Ke was seen through by Lu Feng and admitted it openly.
Seeing that Lu Feng, who had less talent than himself, had made a breakthrough, Luo Ke couldn't help but feel a little anxious and eager to become a formal first-level wizard.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, she decided to go out for a walk.
Maybe, when she is gaining experience outside, she will encounter some opportunity that suits her and allow her to seize the chance to make a breakthrough.
"Is that so? Then I will wait for you in the Trandi Sub-Continent. I will give you a warm welcome then!"
Lu Feng spoke happily and explained to her the location of the Trandi sub-continent and the location of Hongye Town.
However, Lu Feng had a different idea in his mind, thinking about how to keep Luo Ke in the Trandi secondary continent and work for him.
Luo Keke is an elite wizard apprentice of the Green Tower. In addition to his strength, he also has good attainments in botany, pharmacy, and secret treasure making.
"Brother Lei, it's a deal, wait for me to come over!"
Luo Ke didn't know that Lu Feng was lusting after her body, and happily made an agreement with Lu Feng.
After making an agreement with Luo Ke, Lu Feng closed the communication array.
This communication took a long time, and under the long-term high load, the wailing of the communication array was even more miserable.
Lu Feng was terrified by what he saw, fearing that the communication array would collapse the next time it was used.
"It seems that I need to buy a few more communication arrays as backup!"
Lu Feng muttered to himself, and walked to the window of the wizard tower, overlooking the surroundings of the wizard tower from above.
The setting sun in the sky cast an orange-red glow, coating the area around the wizard tower with an orange-red color.
Night is about to fall, but the scene under the tower is still busy.
Looking at this busy scene, Lu Feng felt very pleased. He contacted his master today and mastered the "Green Spirit Wood Meditation Method", which was a good start for him to become a formal wizard.
All that remains is to wait for the wizard assessment from the [Botanical Garden].
This place is quite far from the [Botanical Garden], so I don't know what methods the seniors in the [Botanical Garden] will use to assess him.
High-level formal wizards have many mysterious methods. Lu Feng has just touched the threshold of becoming a formal wizard and cannot guess their methods.
[Botanical Garden] Lu Feng was still a little curious about the methods used by his senior.
Teacher Tia, the application process for the Botanical Garden will probably take a few more days, so Lu Feng continued to wait.
As usual, he stayed in the wizard tower to practice.
In a flash, three days passed.
The hardworking wizard Matyu has made progress in his task of collecting corpses and undead materials.
After learning that what Lu Feng needed was cost-effectiveness and did not need to consider quality, Wizard Matyu did not go directly to Port Dillens.
Instead, he turned around and started chatting with Marquis Andre.
Under Lu Feng's influence, Hongye Town has now expanded into a true marquisate, with vast territory and a large population.
For wizards like Matyu who specialize in the undead, ordinary people in large numbers are the best source of undead materials, regardless of quality.
No matter how many wild beasts there are in the wild jungles or the alien creatures living in the shallow seas, they are only a small number compared to the population of the entire Marquisate.
Marquis André now has about 800,000 people in his territory.
With such a population, one to two hundred people die of natural causes every day, and up to sixty to seventy thousand people die each year.
This is a long-term source of undead materials, so the wizard Matyu would not directly target the corpses of ordinary people.
But through Baron Andre's rule, he urged the towns in the territory to build cemeteries to bury the dead.
By arranging magic arrays in the cemetery, gathering the power of death and tempering the bones, a long-term and stable production site for undead materials can be formed.
Marquis Andre naturally had no intention of rejecting Wizard Matyu's idea. On the contrary, he strongly agreed with it.
On the one hand, this is doing things for Rest, and on the other hand, using the power of the Wizard Tower to build cemeteries for the towns in the territory is also to allow the wizard's influence to penetrate into the Red Leaf Territory and consolidate his rule.
Poor mountains and bad waters produce unruly people.
Hongye Territory expanded from a town to a marquisate. As the territory expanded, more people came to manage, and there were always obstacles in implementing Hongye Town's system.
Marquis Andre was often troubled by this, but he was too embarrassed to bother Lu Feng all the time, as that would make him appear to be an incompetent brother.
Now with Wizard Matyu taking the lead, Andre was naturally happy to cooperate with the Wizard Tower.
However, this series of cemetery construction plans is a long-term plan for the transformation of the Red Leaf Territory.
Matyu then assigned this task to two first-class wizard apprentices, Brito and Matus.
Let them cooperate with Marquis Andre to implement this plan.
At the same time, after discussing with Anne, Matyu also started to open the first Adventurer's Guild in Red Leaf Town in the name of Red Leaf Tower in cooperation with Marquis Andre.
The Adventurer's Guild is an idea that Wizard Matyu borrowed from the Trudo Continent.
In many places on the Trudo continent, due to the popularity of supernatural powers, there are many knights who practice breathing techniques or wizard apprentices who have retired from organizations among ordinary people.
When more and more people with extraordinary powers gather together, naturally there will be some mercenary transactions, material collection, and treasure hunting missions.
The Adventurer's Guild came into being with the endorsement of some wizard organizations.
After Matyu saw that the breathing method was popularized in Hongye Town, the townspeople's strength gradually increased. After it became somewhat useful, he copied the plan of the Adventurer's Guild.
After listening to their report, Lu Feng readily agreed to their request and also provided some material support.
Five hundred bottles of diluted vitality potion.
Lu Feng added some cheap materials, retained some of the natural effects of the vitality potion, and diluted twenty-five bottles of vitality potion into five hundred bottles.
While weakening the effect, it also allows ordinary knight apprentices to try the vitality potion at a cheap price.
The Adventurer's Guild was opened in Hongye Town under the endorsement of Hongye Tower.
Although it is just in its initial stage of construction, adventurers have not yet become a trend.
But the option of exchanging diluted vitality potions provided by the guild alone was enough to make many knight apprentices, who had no place to vent their energy after practicing breathing techniques, cry out in anger.
Grab a long sword, receive a task list, and embark on an adventurer's journey.
With the participation of a group of workers, many of the knight apprentices of Red Leaf Tower were freed from simple physical tasks.
Some tasks of going out to collect materials can be assigned to adventurers.
Naturally, Wizard Matyu also took on some quests in the Adventurer's Guild to collect the corpses of wild beasts and alien races.
Although there are not many alien beasts in the Red Leaf Territory, there are still some hiding in the corners.
Aliens and some ferocious beasts still pose some threats to ordinary people in the territory.
With the presence of adventurers, Baron Andre could save the trouble of sending out troops by spending some money, which was a very cost-effective thing for him.
Hiring adventurers would save a lot of money compared to using the army.
Andre slowly realized the benefits of the Adventurer's Guild. After Wizard Matyu and Shaquiel finished all these, they finally went to Port Dillens.
With Lu Feng's permission, they planned to open a shop to collect corpses in the port of Dillens, so as to provide materials to the Red Leaf Tower on a continuous and stable basis.
On the other hand, after several days of discussion, the Lawrence family basically determined the family's future development direction.
Grand Duke Tulip has already begun actively discussing the handover of power of the entire principality with Marquis Andre.
This move caused a huge uproar in the Tulip Principality and shocked the aristocracy in the principality.
Are you kidding me? The Grand Duke promoted Andre to Marquis just a few months ago, and now he is even more ruthless and chooses to give up his throne directly.
This is really outrageous.
But with the news that Marquis Andre's younger brother, the wizard Rest, was promoted to an official wizard, all the nobles in the principality were shocked and became Muggles.
Is it really that outrageous? How can a third-class wizard apprentice like you who went home to retire be promoted to a formal wizard? Why did you come back?
After being promoted to a first-level wizard, he still has no intention of leaving.
A group of knowledgeable nobles were speechless, but impressed by Lu Feng's strength, and began to think about how their families should deal with it after the Duke of Tulip was replaced.
The center of power in the principality was shifting, and the Lawrence family also collectively left the Wizard Tower and headed for Lu Feng's Red Leaf Tower.
Since they have chosen to join, the Lawrence family has always been straightforward.
Under the leadership of the Lawrence family, other wizard apprentices from the Tulip Principality also joined the Lawrence family's team.
Let’s go to the Red Leaf Tower together.
The journey is long and they are not arriving so soon.
But on the morning of the sixth day after Lu Feng contacted Teacher Tia, Lu Feng received a communication request from the Green Tower.
Tia told Lu Feng that the wizards of the Botanical Garden had approved his application for the meditation method.
It is expected that a senior wizard from the Botanical Garden will examine him this afternoon.
At the same time, Teacher Tia also told Lu Feng that Luo Ke had already set out with the sawdust from the energy-absorbing ancient tree, and was expected to reach the Trandi sub-continent in twenty days.
Let Lu Feng keep an eye on it and take care of Luo Ke as well.
Lu Feng nodded and took note of Teacher Tia's words in his mind.
After finishing the communication, Lu Feng prepared for the afternoon's [Botanical Garden] review.
In order to avoid the wizards of the [Botanical Garden] discovering something unexpected, Lu Feng did not dare to keep the Yin Gui Spirit Realm and Qing Mu Spirit Realm with him, and directly sent them back to the Red Leaf Society.
Without the assistance of the two spiritual realms, Lu Feng lacked a sense of security and always felt like he was naked.
However, Lu Feng's transformation into liquid mental power is real, and he has the strength of a formal wizard. Staying in the wizard tower, Lu Feng does not have to worry about his safety.
Time flies by.
The sun in the sky rose above our heads.
Lu Feng was on the sixth floor with his eyes closed, resting and adjusting his state. At this moment, he suddenly heard the low voices of "Tree Life Eternal" and "Rest" in his ears.
When Lu Feng heard Teacher Tia mention the "eternal life of trees", he was startled, knowing that this was the voice from the [Botanical Garden].
Hearing the calls, Lu Feng felt his eyelids become extremely heavy, and he closed his eyes after just a few calls.
In the dizzying darkness, Lu Feng's consciousness seemed to fall into the deep sea, sinking rapidly in the twisting and squeezing.
Until Lu Feng's consciousness became a little dazed, a green leaf emerged from the darkness and gently supported his consciousness.
Lying on the leaves, a gentle energy surged into Lu Feng's consciousness. The negative state of consciousness slowly dissipated, and Lu Feng was finally able to open his eyes.
"Trees live forever. Welcome to join the Botanical Garden. From now on, you are also a part of the Botanical Garden!"
