Age of Adepts

Chapter 430: Accumulation of Power

Grimm stayed in the alchemy lab for six hours before coming out.

And the moment he came out, his spiritual strength, which was so full, actually drained, the whole person walked a little shaky.

Back in the bedroom on the 4th floor, Grimm immediately began his daily meditation.

Five consecutive hours of deep meditation once again filled his mind and, by the way, gave him a slight mental boost of 0,0005 points. Such an increase, albeit slow, but sustained over the years could also lead to considerable growth in his strength.

But the spiritual growth brought about by daily meditation is not static. As spiritual power grows to a certain level, meditation gradually diminishes its effect. So there are a lot of guys who want to rely on the days and months to accumulate as 2nd level wizards, but there is little success.

Otherwise, as many first-degree wizards as have extended their lives to two or three hundred years, they are one of the first to become second-degree wizards. One of the main reasons is the rules!

Almost every wizard needs to congeal up his or her conscious core when advancing to the rank of wizard, and the degree of compatibility between this core and the laws of position limits the maximum spiritual power that he or she can achieve.

Daily meditation is a process of latent acquiescence, constantly assimilating the nucleus of consciousness with the laws of the world!

However, the process has its limits and is heavily influenced by the normative structure in the core. If the wizard himself did not improve his understanding of the rules of his gift, the core of consciousness would grow to its limits. So if you work hard to master the rules, you can constantly raise the threshold and total amount of the core of consciousness, like digging a pool, the deeper the rules are understood and mastered, the bigger the pool will be.

And everyday meditation is like constantly pouring water into this pool, and when it's not full, you can clearly feel the water line rise. But if the layout of the pool doesn't change, there will always be a full day of water. At that time, it was a moment when the wizard had a headache of his own strength.

But how can it be so easy to understand and master the rules...

Rules are always vain. Some people can experience the existence of rules by practicing witchcraft over and over again. Some people can verify the existence of rules through rigorous witchcraft experiments. Others can feel the existence of rules directly...

Witchcraft spells can be remembered through repetitive exercises, and witchcraft knowledge can be documented, circulated and passed down with books and knowledge crystals. But only an understanding of the rules of the world has little good means of spreading and passing them on.

To date, the only thing that can accomplish this is the bloodline inheritance of bloodline wizards.

The bloodline gifted guys can't cut out the rules of the world and carry on, they can only embed one vague piece of consciousness into their bloodline inheritance. Thus, with the constant dedication of countless bloodline wizards over millions of years, the latter can easily acquire these precious legacies of consciousness through bloodline traction.

With the guidance and demonstration of our ancestors, blood wizards are certainly progressing at an incredible rate.

It has also made bloodline wizards one of the most powerful people in the world. Without the influence of bloodline chains, bloodline wizards could become the largest faction in the world of wizards.

Too bad it's a blood line, a blood line!

Blood strands are like a strand around the neck of all bloodline wizards, and as they progress, the tighter this strand becomes. One day, it will leave them in a painful phase, struggling for a hundred years without going any further!

Compared to blood wizards, elemental wizards focus more on understanding and understanding the rules of the world, without guidance, but without thresholds that are difficult to overcome. That's why Grimm turned his back on the elemental wizards.

What he needs to do now, on the one hand, is constant meditation and accumulation of witchcraft knowledge and, on the other, repeated hammering of his spiritual strength. Half-elementing his body made it easy for him to cross the threshold of a first-order wizard, and if he wanted to be a second-degree wizard, he had to elemental strength as well.

And this, the inevitable need to borrow that mysterious lava sea at the bottom of the witch tower!

However, conditions are not yet ripe, so he is temporarily unable to use the lava sea to hammer his spiritual strength. As for delaying his actions, it is also due to the mutation of the flaming body assimilated by xeno-energy that occurred the last time the heart of the Flaming Demon was unblocked.

At present, he is carefully assessing the impact of this variation on himself, so it is accompanied by a process that affects mental force elementarization.

To think of it, Grimm raised his right hand and silently mobilized the energy in the heart of the Flaming Demon, directing it over his right hand. In an instant, the flexible right hand was covered with a layer of black, metallic mystery, like the devil's palm.

This mysterious material touches hard, resists the stabbing and chopping of sharp weapons, and resists elemental attacks below 15 degrees. And as the energy continues to grow, Grimm's right hand is like a monster of constant alienation, with his palms expanding and his fingers stretching thicker in the crisp clatter. And the most obvious change is the nail, distorting the variation in rapid growth, the end becomes sharper and sharper, and the curved radius is like a sharp dagger.

Grimm took out a black dagger from the storage belt, chopped it in the right palm a few times, rubbed off sparkling Mars, but the black palm was intact. It wasn't until Grimm took out another Enchanted Dagger and stabbed it hard in the palm of his hand that he felt the slightest pain.

Judging from this, once all the mutations of the flaming body have been completed, his body will be completely immune to ordinary weapon attacks and only the Enchanted weapon will cause him some damage.

But Fae energy isn't all that good for him!

Grim took a mirror and opened his mouth to take a picture.

Originally white and neat teeth had been replaced at this moment by Mori's staggered teeth, and he began to diffuse in the room with a mouthful of intense sulfur.

It was not until Grimm dissipated the Fae energy and after a long time that the variant that had just occurred slowly dissipated.

“Chip, the process just now is documented, right? What good solutions have been found? ”

“Drop, the process of alienation has been documented and the changes in elements in the body are being analyzed during the main body variation… This variation will help the main body to adapt faster to the pure flame energy in the mind of the flaming demon, so it is not recommended that the main body block the variation because it will reduce the fit of the body body and flame energy…”

Grimm couldn't help but feel silent after listening to the chip's advice.

After all, the chip is not him, everything is aimed at maximizing function as an evolutionary goal. As for Grimm's insistence on the human body, for the first time, the chip has a completely different understanding from him.

Perhaps this is the fragile side of humanity!

Grimm mocked herself helplessly, then left the bedroom and returned to the experimental area on the fifth floor.

This time he went not to the alchemy lab, but to another small bioremediation room.

Compared to the refinement and sophistication of the alchemy lab, the biotransformation room is much more gloomy. A giant stone platform with a specific, completely different variety of creatures and artifacts, many of which are already incomplete and have obvious surgical marks on them.

When Grim was perceived, a doll, covered in silver and only 1 metre 8 tall, came to him with respect and standing still.

Looking at the bloodstained knives and serrations on the engineer-aided puppet's arm, Grimm couldn't help but ask, “How are things going with Experiments 1 and 2? ”

“Experiment 1 has been cleaned up. Experiment 2's vitality is still diminishing. Currently, only 87% of the body functions are retained...”

Two ‘people' walked and said, quickly came to a giant stone platform.

Above the stone table, a hill of demonized spiders crawled there, and their heads flew blind, and behind them their huge bellies dried up. However, the huge body and dark, shiny, sharp limbs placed there can still bring a terrible sense of oppression to visitors.

Though the Devil Spider Tura is dead, it still has a great deal of value!

All four of its spider leg roots are sharp as magic weapons, and if you give them to Enchanters or Alchemists, they will surely tap into their maximum power and transform them into the right sorcery.

And the back shell of the old spider, not knowing what kind of material it's made of, is not only flexible but also extremely resistant to demons. If you turn them into small shields, even wizards can pick them up lightly.

And in the body of the old spider, a giant poison gland, a poison sac, and a giant silk sac were dug out.

These things can certainly work quite differently in the hands of different sorcerers. Grimm is not good at handling witchcraft materials, so he can only give them to Grigg witches. After all, the Grigg Witch is also a pharmacist, and the poison glands and sacs of the old spider are sure to increase his poison reserves and make his poison configuration more powerful.

And Grimm certainly lived up to Grimm's expectations, and by immersing himself with a mysterious potion, he actually started spitting the silk bladder out. Though not enough for 1 meter in 10 days, after testing by the Grigg Witch, this silk is not only smooth and soft, good hand feel, but also extremely tough, even ordinary magic weapons are difficult to cut.

In addition, this filament is capable of absorbing magic elements up to 10 degrees and isolating spiritual exploration.

It also means that if you create a set of underwear with this kind of silk, you can add 10 degrees of elemental resistance to the wizard's whiteness and immunize the passive spiritual perception of the wizard.

Thus, even if they encounter wizards with higher spirits than their own, wearers do not have to worry about their spiritual state being spyed on.

After all, active spiritual exploration is a hostile act among wizards!
