Chapter 712: The Method of Immortality
The moment the pentagram pattern appeared on Thor's spiritual body, he had already understood the essence of this method of advancement.
The previous owner of the diary gave this method of promotion an imaginative name.
Death weaving thread.
"So this is the difference between a fourth-level wizard and a third-level wizard..."
Thor stood there blankly, still quickly digesting the knowledge that entered his brain along with the pentagram.
If the difference between a third-level wizard and a second-level wizard lies in the degree to which they use their power, then the gap between a fourth-level wizard and a third-level wizard is even more exaggerated.
That is a level jump in which even the life form has changed.
Because fourth-level wizards... are almost immortal.
This kind of immortality is fundamentally different from the long-lived third-level wizard.
Although third-level wizards do not have to worry about death from old age - they can replenish their naturally aging bodies at any time by absorbing and converting external forces - they can be devoured, contaminated, and destroyed.
But fourth-level wizards are different.
Even if they are completely contaminated and blasted to pieces, there are ways to fully recover.
Only with such a strong vitality can one withstand more profound knowledge and more dangerous forces.
But the method of resurrection of every fourth-level wizard is also their fatal weakness.
If the key to resurrection is grasped by other powerful people, the fourth-level wizard may perish completely.
The stage of advancement from level three to level four is actually the stage where a high-level wizard transforms himself into an immortal form.
Their method of resurrection, or fatal weakness, will be fixed in the process of promotion and transformation.
Therefore, every fourth-level person will carefully hide his or her own way of promotion.
Unless he has completed the promotion to level five.
The way Kismet was able to obtain the "Thread of Death" was obviously because the previous owner of the diary had been promoted to the fifth level.
But, has Kismet read the contents of the scroll? Thor glanced at Kismet, who was smiling and seemed to be waiting for Thor to ask.
But Thor ignored him and continued to interpret the thread of death represented by the pentagram.
The so-called thread of death means that the previous owner of the diary caused many large-scale deaths, and through the pentagram array, he gathered these death forces to his own destiny.
The pentagram means that the opponent has created a horrific massacre at five locations and imprisoned a large number of resentful spirits obtained from the massacre. The death energy generated by these resentful spirits will be connected by the pentagram, and all the death power connected in series will be gathered on the caster.
Therefore, this method is also called "death weaving".
Under the influence of the Death Thread, the caster's life form gradually changes from a normal body to a dark form filled with the power of death.
At the same time, he will enjoy death more and more and become indifferent to life.
It is very difficult to advance to the fourth level in this way.
In addition to causing a large number of killings, how to accept the death energy while not being contaminated and affected by the resentment in it is the first thing the caster has to consider.
But the previous owner of the diary used it to avoid the biggest side effect of "Thread of Death".
The thing that carries all this death energy is the diary of the dead wizard that Thor is holding now.
The diary will gladly accept the pollution in the dead air and provide the pure power needed by the diary owner. It was with the help of the power of the diary that the previous generation of masters were able to easily ascend to the fourth-level wizard, and his strength was also quite powerful in that era.
If one wants to kill this fourth-level wizard who has been promoted in this way, one needs to eliminate all the vengeful spirits on the pentagram and ensure that no new deaths occur at the top corners of the pentagram.
In this way, a wizard whose source of death is cut off will lose the ability to resurrect.
Thor closed his eyes, sorted out the knowledge he had gained, opened his eyes and saw Kismet still standing opposite him.
"Did you also use this method to advance to the fourth level?"
Kismet shook his head. "I am not the owner of the diary."
It seems that only those who are recognized by the diary can be promoted using this method.
but……
Thor did not intend to be promoted exactly in the same way as the previous owner of the diary.
He is not a person who likes killing.
Moreover, the simple thread of death may not be more advanced than the thread of destiny he had seen.
But the "Thread of Death" sent by Kismet is definitely not knowledge that ordinary wizards can access.
"It must have been hard to get this, thank you very much."
Thor put the pentagram away.
But Kismet seemed very interested in Saul's choice.
"My lovely brother, may I ask where you would like to choose as your first stop?"
Thor said warily, "Don't interfere in this matter."
The opponent raised his hands and said, "Don't worry, don't worry. This matter is related to your promotion. I will definitely not make trouble."
Saul went on to warn him, "Including acting on your own without permission."
"Yes, yes, I won't act on my own."
After getting Kismet's assurance, Thor told Kismet the destination of his trip.
"I'm going to go to Archaster."
Kismet's eyes widened with excitement. "You want to rob the Upside-Down Tree?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"It's not about robbing, it's about asking for a new sprout." Thor corrected.
Kismet smiled with his eyes narrowed, looking like he didn't believe what Thor said at all.
But he quickly regained his composure and said to Thor solemnly, "As a former member of the diary, I suggest that you place the last corner of the pentagram on the Stargate Council."
"Stargate Council?"
"Well, I promise that no matter what you want to do, you won't lose anything if you go there. But the premise is that you have to go last."
Thor snorted coldly and thought to himself, "Both Kismet and the diary like to be riddlers. But when they went to the Stargate Council in the end, was Kismet sure that a huge change would happen there?"
"Got it," Thor walked out of the manor, "I will consider your proposal carefully."
Kismet looked at Thor's back without saying anything.
When Thor walked out the door and looked back again, the hall was empty.
Even the two dancing corpses were gone.
It was as if nothing had happened just now and no one appeared here.
Thor held the scroll in his hand, and in a flash, he disappeared from the spot.
…
A huge pale yellow bird soared in the sky.
If you just look at it from above, it's just an ordinary, even pretty big bird.
But if you change your perspective and stand under the giant bird, you will be horrified to find that this bird has no feet, but only a dozen long centipede-like whiskers hanging down, which are constantly curling and stretching in the strong wind.
After flying for a while, the clouds in the sky suddenly thickened and turned gray.
The sky was also extremely gloomy.
A bolt of lightning almost brushed past Thor and struck the earth, with a continuous roar.
"Tsk, lightning." Thor smacked his lips, and his skin instantly shrank, turning into a black skeleton.
The thunder became more and more frequent and the rain was pouring down.
In the gap between the dark clouds, a city appeared on the land below.
There is a majestic palace in the center of the city, simple and heavy, standing in the wind and rain.
After another flash of white light that was almost blinding, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of Thor.
There were also electric sparks on the opponent's body. He stood in the air with his arms like two huge sabers.
She was aggressive and her voice was as loud as thunder.
"Excuse me, are you passing through the Principality of Kema, or are you visiting for some business?"
Thor pulled his hood closer and raised his head again, his face returning to its original appearance.
He smiled and said, "Lord Kira, long time no see. I was passing through the Principality of Kema and stopped by to visit an old friend."
