Chapter 219 Requirements for Breaking Through Level 3
Chapter 219
The great battle between the Temple of Life and the rebels ended in such a simple and unpretentious way.
This is understandable.
The rebels' four third-level wizards were wiped out in an instant, and the entire army's morale collapsed. It was only a matter of time before they were defeated.
Lin En took action personally without any hesitation. The four third-level wizards who had been so powerful on the battlefield didn't even have a chance to resist. They were killed by Ifgrid and their body and soul were completely destroyed.
This scene shocked the entire battlefield.
Countless wizards and wizard apprentices witnessed with their own eyes the strange demon tree suddenly explode and kill four powerful enemies in one fell swoop.
That tree shadow, like a nightmare, was deeply imprinted in their hearts.
This battle has far-reaching impact...
For the wizards in the Temple of Life, this is an incomparable encouragement!
Surprise, ecstasy, awe, excitement...all kinds of emotions surged in their hearts.
They finally understood that the force they were loyal to was so terrifying that it possessed a black-robed wizard who was powerful enough to overwhelm the great wizards! The four third-level wizards were like dust in his hands, and they turned into ashes with a light wave!
Such an existence, even if it is not the legendary Morning Star Wizard, is probably very close to it!
At this moment, their sense of belonging and belief in the Temple of Life is stronger than ever before! On the other hand, the rebel wizards fell into complete despair.
A terrifying enemy who could easily wipe out four level three warriors almost made them lose all their will to resist.
"Why do we rebel?"
"If you had surrendered earlier, how could you have ended up like this?"
Many rebel wizards felt strong regret in their hearts, but they also understood that it was too late.
They saw with their own eyes the top strong men they relied on die one after another.
However, the enemy's "trump card", the black-robed wizard, did not even show any sign of using his true power! The balance of this war had completely tilted in that instant.
However, whether it was the reversal of morale between the two armies or the huge gap in emotions between the enemy and our camps, it was meaningless to Lin En.
He didn't care about the shock and fear of these people, nor did he care about the aftermath of the war.
Because at that moment, he had accomplished his goal.
The demise of the four third-level wizards was equivalent to the complete destruction of the rebels' strongest force, and he no longer needed to intervene in the subsequent battle.
The three great wizards, Helen, Bodo and Mona, will lead the army of the Hall of Life to sweep away the remaining enemies and end the entire battle.
Therefore, Lin En withdrew directly, left the battlefield without any reluctance, and quietly returned to the Hall of Life with the great wizard Zar from the Nightshadow Furnace.
The ruined battlefield behind him was completely engulfed by massacre and war after he left.
………………………………
Deep in the Hall of Life, stands a wizard's tower.
The entire tower is slender and upright, and the entire body of the tower is covered with dense runes, all of which are rare and ancient techniques, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.
At this moment, in a secret room on the first floor of the tower, Lin En and the great wizard Zar were sitting opposite each other.
Lin En stood with his hands behind his back, his expression calm as water, emitting an aura of calmness and dominance; while Zar seemed much more reserved, with a hint of nervousness and vigilance flashing in his eyes from time to time.
The conversation between the two was orderly, with Lynn asking questions and Zar answering.
Lin En said in a calm tone, with a half-smile on his face, "I have no grudge against Night Shadow Furnace, and I have heard of Night Shadow Wizard for a long time, and we have been friends for a long time."
These words sounded quite polite, even a little friendly, as if they were from old friends who had communicated with each other in their early years.
But the truth is bullshit.
He had never met the Night Shadow Wizard before, and the so-called "spiritual communication" was just a polite remark.
Not to mention friendship, even his understanding of the Night Shadow Wizard was limited to rumors and intelligence, and was not even as deep as his understanding of the Lord of the White Heart Tower in the White Wizard Realm.
The Temple of Life is located on the edge of the Dark Wizard Territory, and there are two major forces that have reached the level of Morning Star Wizards nearby.
One is the Nightshade Furnace, located deeper in the Dark Wizard's territory, and the other is the White Heart Tower, which is across the border and belongs to the White Wizard's territory.
These two are the two forces that may have contact and conflict with the Temple of Life in this area.
Lin En thought to himself that since he had decided to stay in the dark wizard territory for a while, he naturally had to build good relationships in advance, especially with those "neighbors" with whom he might have dealings in the future.
Although he knew some information about the Nightshadow Furnace, he knew very little about the deeper structure of the dark wizard power structure.
And now, the great wizard Zar in front of him is undoubtedly a good breakthrough.
Thinking of this, Lin En raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly: "I won't hide it either. I'll show my goodwill to Night Shadow Furnace. I have been away from the Dark Wizard Territory for a long time and have been traveling abroad. I just returned not long ago. During this period of time, has there been any major changes in the Dark Wizard Territory?"
He has become very familiar with this rhetoric.
When they crossed the line between black and white wizards, he used this reason to deal with the gatekeeper Sirius. Now he brought up this excuse again, and it naturally seemed watertight.
More importantly, if the previous and subsequent statements were verified by someone interested, they would actually corroborate each other, and the possibility of raising suspicion is extremely small.
If there really were an expert in Night Shadow Furnace who was tracking down his background, he might be able to get away with this.
The great wizard Zar has always been cautious, worried about what the owner behind the Temple of Life is trying to do.
Now hearing Lin En say this, he felt relieved. It turned out that he wanted to ask him about the information within the dark wizard territory.
"About the Dark Wizard Territory..."
The great wizard Zaer opened his mouth slowly and began to narrate.
The southern part of the wizarding world is divided into two major territories: the dark wizards and the white wizards.
Within the Dark Wizard Territory, it is further divided into four major furnace areas.
These are the four most powerful forces in the dark wizard system, namely: Furnace Stone, Abyss Furnace, Shadow Furnace, and Furnace Temple.
The reason why these four forces are honored as the "Four Crucibles" by the entire dark wizard world is that behind them, there are beings that surpass the level of Morning Star Wizards guarding them.
It is the presence of these powerful beings that enables the four great furnaces to stand firm in the turbulent and treacherous dark wizard realm, transcending the world and lasting forever.
What is even more frightening is that they seem to have reached some kind of tacit understanding with each other, each occupying their own territory, not crossing the boundary, and not interfering with each other.
However, although the influence of the four major furnaces is extremely vast, it does not mean that they are the only four that dominate the territory.
In fact, there are many large and small wizard forces active in the areas under their jurisdiction.
For example, the Temple of Life and the Nightshade Furnace are located within the territory of the Furnace Stone.
In this area, there are other independent forces at the Morning Star Wizard level.
Although these forces are within the sphere of influence of Furnace Stone, it does not mean that they belong to Furnace Stone, nor do they need to submit to it.
This is because although the Four Crucibles are powerful, they have never intended to unify the dark wizard territories.
Why didn't they just swallow everything up and expand across the board? There are two main reasons for this:
First, it comes from historical changes.
In ancient times, the wizarding world had indeed experienced earth-shaking wars of conquest time and again, with the forces fighting each other to the death.
But ever since the wizarding civilization left its homeland and started a wave of conquests in the endless planes of the world, wars within the wizarding world have been greatly reduced.
The strong focus on conquering planes and plundering resources, while the locals tend to be balanced and restrained.
Second, it comes from the high-pressure supervision of the Wizarding Council.
In the laws of the Wizarding Council, wars in the native world are strictly restricted.
If conflicts break out between wizards of the same level, such as small-scale battles between Level 1 wizards and Morning Star wizards, it is tacitly permitted;
However, if a being beyond Morning Star personally takes action and attempts to unify a large area, it will inevitably violate the bottom line of the Wizard Council and face extremely severe sanctions.
The underlying logic of the Wizard Council is clear: Super Morning Star-level wizards are never allowed to start a large-scale war in their native world.
Because of this, most conflicts in the Dark Wizard Territory are still concentrated between Level 1 to Level 3 Great Wizards, and the occasional involvement of Morning Star Wizards is rare.
In fact, once most Morning Star wizards have established their own power, they will restrain themselves and instead devote their energy to expeditions and explorations in the endless plane world.
Unless they are about to break through the bottleneck, and the original mortal kingdom that worships them is not of a high enough level, they will start a war again to push the mortal regime to upgrade and absorb higher resources.
This shows that the mindsets and goals of wizards in the wizarding world change significantly as their powers increase.
Before becoming a Morning Star Wizard, most wizards focus more on local development and practice.
Once they step into the realm of Morning Star, their gaze will turn from their native world to the vast and boundless endless plane.
Lin En had a long conversation with Great Wizard Zaer and gained an in-depth understanding of the structure and underlying rules of the dark wizard territory.
After obtaining enough information, he politely sent the other party away and asked him to convey his greetings to the Night Shadow Wizard.
In the wizarding world, direct conflicts between Morning Star wizards rarely occur unless there is a major conflict of interest.
This is also true between the dark wizard and white wizard camps.
For example, the former Spirit Eye Wizard and the White Heart Tower Master, although they belonged to different camps and had opposing ideologies, they were still able to maintain a superficially friendly relationship.
It is said that the two have a good relationship. Maybe they have worked together during an expedition to a certain plane. Who knows...
…
After seeing Zar off, Lin En climbed to the top of the tower and looked down at the group of wizards and buildings in the Temple of Life below, his eyes becoming increasingly profound.
At this moment, his mood was difficult to calm down.
He has already attracted the attention of a true Morning Star Wizard, who probably considers him to be of the same level.
Although there is no direct grudge between the two parties, Lin En has always been cautious and unwilling to pin his hopes on the goodwill of others.
Although he has already stepped half a foot into the threshold of Morning Star, he is far from feeling at ease.
He knew that only when he put his feet firmly on it and truly completed the transformation, could he truly gain a firm foothold.
"The unification of the kingdom by the Temple of Life has come to an end. The next step is to plan for external expansion... and approach the Great Emerald Island Forest."
He has not forgotten that he is still bound by his life span.
Only by officially breaking through to the third-level great wizard can this hidden danger be resolved.
When he left the plane world, Lin En was at the mid-perfect level of a second-level wizard, and now he has gone through a period of training.
He finally crossed this small step and reached the level of a late second-level wizard.
If we look at the detailed division of mental power levels, Lin En's mental power value has now reached 251 points, which is at the beginning stage of the late stage of the second-level wizard.
Generally speaking, the late stage range of a second-level wizard is 251 to 275 points of mental power, and 275 points is regarded as the upper limit of this stage.
Once you reach this critical point, you can start preparing to break through to become a level three great wizard.
In fact, the process of breaking through from a Level 2 wizard to a Level 3 great wizard is essentially the same as the process of breaking through from Level 1 to Level 2, and both require the fulfillment of three key conditions:
First, the mental strength must reach perfection, 275 points, and be completely liquefied.
Second, with the help of special magic potions, he could achieve a surge in mental power in a short period of time and break through the critical line of the third-level wizard.
When Lin En broke through from level one to level two, he did not rely on potions, but instead sought the help of the "Spirit of the Blue Sky".
This time, however, he had no similar external support.
The third is to carve a "third-level witchcraft template" in the spiritual realm after the mental power has skyrocketed, in order to stabilize the realm and achieve a real breakthrough.
Lynn has not yet met any of these three conditions.
He placed his hopes for the first two items on the treasure trove of [landscape] within the Green Island Forest.
He still remembered browsing the many treasures within the [Landscape] when he first entered it, most of which were related to liquefaction of mental energy and magical potion materials.
If we can obtain the key resources, we may be able to solve the first two problems required for a breakthrough.
Only the third item, the third-level witchcraft template, cannot be obtained from the landscape treasure house.
Lin En murmured in a low voice: "The contract that I made with Maple Tree only covers the level of first- and second-level wizards... Third-level witchcraft is not included."
He narrowed his eyes, his gaze deep.
Now, the maple tree is sleeping in the deepest part of the Blue Sky Spirit and cannot be awakened in a short period of time, so naturally, no help can be obtained from it.
But Lin En is not without a solution. He has turned his attention to the Spirit Eye Furnace! The Soul Eye Furnace was once a powerful force controlled by the Morning Star Wizard. Deep in its library, there should be a large collection of high-level witchcraft templates, among which there must be ones that meet his needs.
The only problem is that the Soul Eye Furnace is now near the Green Island Forest, and approaching it is bound to be risky.
"Unfortunately, the memory fragments of the Spirit Eye Wizard do not contain the third-level template information I need... It seems that if I want to enter the third level, I can only make this trip myself, and also serve as a way to explore the way in advance."
Lin En made up his mind, turned around and disappeared on the top of the tower.
…
A moment later, accompanied by the roar of a black dragon, his figure riding the giant dragon was quietly approaching the direction of the Green Island Forest...
The last time Lin En entered the Great Forest of Emerald Island, he was still a wizard apprentice.
But now, with the passage of time, he already possesses power far beyond that of a third-level great wizard...
