Chapter 339 Third-Level Wizard
Viola came in a whirlwind and left in a whirlwind, as if this visit truly was just for farewell and introducing Ang.
Jie Ming was long accustomed; years ago, Mentor Clark âentrustedâ him to Viola in similarly curt fashion.
Among wizardsâespecially those focused on personal pathsâexchanges cut to the core, sparing redundant pleasantries.
Seeing them off, Jie Mingâs consciousness sank back into the Infernal Sulfur plane, fully immersing in Incense Fire Divine Daoâs final construction.
Time flew in devoted research and practice.
Another forty-plus seasonal cycles.
This day, Jie Ming cautiously inscribed the last composite rune array bearing core rules onto a key node in the planeâs energy veins.
When the final stroke lit, perfectly resonating and merging with the vast network, he exhaled long.
Suppressing inner excitement, he swiftly returned to the plane array core laboratory.
Activating monitoring arrays, comprehensive scan data instantly displayed.
Plane surface: eternal scorching inferno vista unchanged.
Lava seas surged, black giant communities migratedâno visible eye-level shifts.
Yet on Jie Mingâs precise energy perception instruments, Incense Fire Divine Dao system energy flows stably lit orderly, cycling like infused with life!
Beyond, in more mystical realms, Jie Mingâs Nascent Soul cultivator spiritual sense clearly perceived plane changes.
He distinctly âsawâ a novel cycle systemâdistinct from elemental energyâlike fine neural networks silently covering and permeating the entire Infernal Sulfur plane.
Incense Fire Divine Daoâcomplete!
At confirmation instant, as if invisible barrier shattered.
In Jie Mingâs mind, near-millennium Great Dao Book Pavilion knowledge fragments on spiritual qi essence, rune evolution, array pivots, faith condensation collided and fused at unprecedented speed!
Via this sudden knowledge integration, many obscure points clarified.
A natural enlightenment surged.
Emerging from wondrous state, slight sensing revealed spiritual force fluctuation elevated a tier.
More condensed, vast; world energy interactions sharper, deeper.
Third-level wizard!
He had successfully advanced!
Moreover, Jie Ming clearly perceived himself no ordinary third-level.
Independently designing and constructing a plane-spanning Incense Fire Divine Dao systemâeven preliminary frameworkâachieved astonishing depth in âSpiritual Qi Lawâ understanding and application.
He roughly estimated his Spiritual Qi Law mastery likely exceeded 5%!
Meaning in law comprehension, he surpassed many fourth-level wizards.
Limited by current third-level spiritual force volume and quality, he could stably exert near 1% law mastery power.
But this affirmed his initial choice correct; upon full Incense Fire Divine Dao completion, Spiritual Qi Law masteryâif not 100%âwould be close.
Amid joy, Jie Ming glanced at seventh-level large elemental pool energy monitoring arrayâreadings drew a cold breath.
âNo wonder⊠Great Dao Book Pavilion texts stress Incense Fire Divine Dao needs at least stellar-level energy sourceâŠâ
Consumptionâexorbitant!
Past years, maintaining ten full-power incubation pools birthing near six hundred million black giants, various alchemical experiments, internal space and auto-factories⊠all totaled under one ten-thousandth of pool output.
Now, merely preliminary Incense Fire Divine Dao framework and basic operationâconsumption soared to one-tenth pool power!
Per design calculations, full completion with all modules stable would occupy over 80% output!
âThankfully⊠chose seventh-level poolâŠâ Jie Ming felt lingering fear and fortune.
Sixth-level for merit-saving would fail startup; grand plan energy-starved abort.
This âextravagantâ stepâcrucial.
Now, Incense Fire Divine Dao main framework built, stably running.
Next: add specific function modules.
E.g., collect and auto-refine incense fire power, perfect cross-space energy transmission protocols, refine black giant community âsocialâ attribute guidance and feedback.
âFine decorationâ categoryâleisurely, no prior urgency.
Calculating, under twenty years to next mandatory service.
Jie Ming deemed time to shift focus from plane construction to upcoming plane battlefield preparations.
He carefully assessed self-state.
Third-level advancement lacked cultivation major realm breakthroughâs rebirth sensation.
Wizard pathâbeyond first-two life and spiritual leapsâlater advancements resembled knowledge accumulation triggering spiritual force natural expansion and refinement.
Unless multi-level jumps, immediate combat boost not instant; more potential elevation and power ceiling release.
âThen, these dozen-plus yearsâmain direction?â Jie Ming planned.
Knowledge is wizard combat power.
With Spiritual Qi Law mastery far exceeding level, ordinary third-level knowledge unchallenging; key: convert law insight to actual combat.
Ideas cleared swiftly: âPrimary: research and craft third-level sigil witch artifacts.â
Most effective instant combat boost.
With current Spiritual Qi Law and elemental understanding, fully capable designing more powerful, esoteric third-level sigil artifactsâensuring battlefield self-preservation and breakthrough.
âSecond⊠perhaps begin space knowledge contact.â Long-lingering thought.
Mutated snake-spider space abilities, internal space further development, future advanced applicationsâspace knowledge vital.
Though extremely difficult, post-Nascent Soul, Jie Ming qualified preliminary space force observation and influence.
Delayed for time; now, basic dabbling and attempts viable.
Goals set, Jie Ming delayed no more.
Consciousness sank into laboratory databank, retrieving elemental architecture, energy compression tech, introductory space theory materials.
Mere dozen-plus years for researchânot ample; must utilize efficiently.
