A Sorcerer’s Journey

Chapter 700: Chapter 700: Steadfast Progress

This was an unfamiliar Level 1 Elderly Sorcerer, with pale hair, a weak Soul Fire, and dry, wrinkled skin.

”Must be over six thousand years old...”

Looking at the Elderly Sorcerer in the underground chamber of the Lord’s Manor, Green had such a perception.

Yet this Elderly Sorcerer seemed unaware of Green’s arrival, still bent over, focusing intently on studying the mysterious powder on the experimental bench.

Bookshelves were lined with old books, some with yellowed pages protected by wax, some on unknown animal hides, some damaged remnants, and some even carved on wooden boards and stone slates in Ancient Wizard Language.

The bluestone altar emitted a decaying scent, as if it hadn’t been used for many years.

Green strolled through this massive underground laboratory, naturally flipping through the magic witchcraft books on the shelves. Initially, Green was just curious, but after a short while, his expression gradually grew serious and solemn!

”The Reflection of Triple Impact Elemental Transmutation Rules,” ”Research on the Core Implosion Reaction After Elemental Arrangement with Twenty-Five Times Leverage Rules,” ”Relative Calculation of Threads of Time and Spatial Distance,” ”The Rules of Void Power on the Order of the Endless World,” ”A Proof of the Three-Dimensional Dimensions of the Endless World”...

This wizard knowledge is of such high-level theoretical research that not even a low-ranking First-Level Wizard, but someone like Green, a Third-Level Great Sorcerer, or even a typical Stigmata Sorcerer, can grasp it.

Yet these witchcraft books appeared in the laboratory of merely a Level 1 Elderly Sorcerer!

Green’s first reaction was that this Elderly Sorcerer had discovered some Ancient High-grade Wizard Secret Laboratory.

”Finally succeeded!”

At this moment, the Elderly Sorcerer, who was meticulously studying the mysterious powder, exclaimed joyfully, and carefully used a delicate metal spoon to scoop the studied powder into a crystal bottle, eyes filled with wisdom and expectation.

”Using Lin Powder for mysterious guidance, extracting one gram of essence from one hundred and twenty kilograms of Odom Bone Demon Marrow, it should be the Bone Demon Essence mentioned by the Ancient Wizards. Let’s see if it can communicate with that great world that even the Ancient Wizards marveled at.”

The Elderly Sorcerer muttered to himself, evidently having achieved some major experimental result, and in terms of knowledge depth, had far surpassed the general level of wizards.

Crystal Stones were embedded in the altar according to certain energy rules. After checking for a while, ensuring the altar was problem-free, the Elderly Sorcerer retrieved a Crystal Ball, which reflected the face of the little girl Green had previously seen.

”Cappuccino, come to me.”

”Oh.”

The girl, sweaty and weary, agreed and then turned off the Crystal Ball.

A moment later, as the magic array doors of the chamber opened, the girl rushed into the underground laboratory, muttering, ”Grandpa, what’s the matter again?”

Grandpa?

This Elderly Sorcerer must have realized that his life was at its end and consciously started to spread his life’s flame, intending to pass down his knowledge as a wizard.

This behavior is quite common in the Wizard World.

Even as far as Green is aware, during the academy wars, Second Uncle Dada Long had also begun such preparations.

”You just don’t cherish your talent, playing around every day, when will it stop?”

The Elderly Sorcerer lightly tapped the girl’s forehead, expressing his frustration.

”The path of the wizard is endless. With your innate twenty-six points of spiritual power world will talent, as soon as you advance to Official Sorcerer, you can mobilize the World’s Power. In the Wizard World, you would be a great being comparable to a Third-Level Great Sorcerer and freely traverse the Wizard World with both wizard knowledge and the World Guardian’s dual evolution path. Once the wizard academies discover you, countless Stigmata Sorcerers might personally descend to claim you as a disciple or student, and even perhaps True Spirit Wizards may take great interest...”

World will talent!?

Beside the bookshelf, beneath the Face of Truth, Green’s breathing quickened, looking at this girl with fiery eyes.

Besides the Natural Force Talent being considered by the Wizard World as the highest wizard talent, among wizard apprentice talents, any talent associated with the word ’world’ is nearly as excellent as the Natural Force Talent.

Black Wizard Hattori Michizou’s World’s Blood talent allows one to hide within any world’s natural materials, elusive and ever-changing. Even Hattori Michizou’s control of Laphie’s ”Mutant Symbiotic Worms” likely utilized this talent in deep research, forming the infamous Dark Witchcraft that terrorized the lower ranks of District Twelve.

Green’s World’s Veil talent, aside from allowing the flesh body to bear Annihilation Force, Green speculated that the talent’s greatest future development direction should be in forcibly descending into Foreign Domains.

The two strongest forces that prevent high-level lifeforms from descending into the world’s interior are the World’s Veil and the Balance Rules.

As of now, this little girl before Green actually possessed the world will talent...

Indeed, it should be said to be the wizard world will talent. Wizards with such talent will have the ability to command the World’s Power in the Wizard World and freely enter and exit the Wizard World without the limitation of being bound within the world like World Guardians.

”Truly a lucky little girl...”

Green sighed.

While wisdom determines the achievements of a wizard, as Wizard Dila once said at Krakatoa Port, good talent doesn’t hinder a wizard’s research; it actually aids in a wizard’s advancement on the wizard’s path.

On the other side, the little girl pouted, clearly unimpressed by her grandfather’s lecture.

The Elderly Sorcerer sighed, half-pacifying his granddaughter, ”Alright, alright, come, let’s see if Grandpa successfully communicated with the Bone Demon World using the materials he just finished preparing today. If successful in communicating with this great Foreign Domain, I can declare my research to Dawn Wisdom, and by then, hahaha...”

Laughing, the Elderly Sorcerer led his granddaughter to the altar, activated the altar’s Energy Baryte, and casually sprinkled the Bone Demon powder into the air.

Rumble, rumble, rumble...

The hall trembled violently.

However, after a while, there was no unusual movement on the altar. Originally having slight expectations, Abuchino muttered, ”Looks like Grandpa failed again.”

After speaking, the little girl sighed, left the laboratory, and muttered as she walked, ”Grandpa, even Father says you shouldn’t always study those high-level theories. The path of the wizard requires a down-to-earth approach, exploring gradually from shallow to deep. Otherwise, with your wisdom, you might have long since become a Third-Level Great Sorcerer.”

The Elderly Sorcerer looked at the empty altar, shook his head, looking similarly disappointed, and followed the girl out.

Failure!?

Behind the Face of Truth, Green, through his Half-step Chronos Perception of eighteen parts of three seconds, saw an anomaly in the eighteenth part of the Threads of Time jump!

Right beneath the continuously flickering spatial crack on the altar before him, a pair of bony hands struggled to pry open the crack, as a powerful creature began to sense in the direction of the altar.
