Wizard Bloodline.

Chapter 279 [Double Snail Palace], "Deteriorating Blood" and Storm Body, Dawn and Twilight and [Ascetic Body Building]

"I?"

The runes of storm flashed quietly in Ronan's eyes, and he replied softly: "I feel great now."

The thunder storm summoned by the Storm Weaver, the Storm Spirit who was about to be promoted to level seven, tore Ronan's body apart, but also brought him rebirth again.

Bringing up the character panel, most of the data has not changed.

Apart from the soul age being advanced one step further, from 21 to 22, the only thing left is [Austerity Body Training].

The master-level proficiency of [Austerity Body Tempering] has increased from just over 1500 points to (1599/1600).

The only thing left to achieve before breaking through to the next level is the last bit of proficiency.

Ronan's nearly a year of combat training in the Realm of Storms and his courage to actively devote himself to the Storm Weaver spell were not in vain. The huge improvement in his master-level proficiency in [Austerity Body Tempering] brought him a leap in physical growth.

He is now almost immune to electric and wind spells below level four. The blue snail bred in the life ball in his body has also become more complex and bigger. This is the result of the construction of the [Double Snail Palace].

If these improvements were still within Ronan's expectations, then there were some improvements that he had not expected.

Ronan immersed his mind into his body, and his mental power slowly moved through his body.

Wherever he went, one could clearly see some beautiful and complex lightning and wind patterns growing in his flesh, blood and bones, like flower branches.

The Storm Weaver's baptism of storm left a huge amount of thunder and hurricane power in his body. After leaving the storm realm, he has been trying to digest and eliminate this part of the power.

During this period, some wonderful changes occurred that he could not explain. His body seemed to have autonomously engraved some of the core mysteries of the Weaver's Storm Power, imprinting them deeply into his flesh, blood and bones.

These storm patterns are like some naturally formed runes, but perhaps because Ronan was not baptized by the power of storm to a deep degree, these storm patterns are not complete.

But just this alone has given Ronan the "innate ability" to freely control the wind and electricity elemental spells to a certain extent.

This ability even affects the effect of his "Ancient Demon Body" to a certain extent. Now that he has started the transformation of "Ancient Demon Body", his control over the black aura has also undergone many unexpected changes.

Overall, it's a good thing.

"I'd like to take a closer look at your body. Do you mind?"

Alazan spoke in a low voice, in a serious and negotiating tone.

Alazan's soul needs to be attached to Ronan to survive, and because of the constraints of the "Master-Servant Contract", his understanding of Ronan is actually very limited.

Ronan almost completely closed off everything about himself, leaving only a small opening for Alazan to move freely within a certain range of his consciousness space and to enter and exit at will.

Ronan was silent for a moment and then nodded in agreement to Alazan's request.

He was also curious about the changes that had taken place in his [Innocent Body], and perhaps he could get the answer from Alazan.

Releasing the restrictions on Alazan's soul, the golden ladybug started from Ronan's forehead and slowly crawled all over Ronan's body, from the inside to the outside, occasionally stopping at certain places. Ronan did not show Alazan the heart that was running the blood deduction array.

Soon, Alazan's soul power was gathered back into Ronan's consciousness space.

After a period of silence, Alazan spoke.

"Your current body is like a natural 'deteriorating blood'."

"Deteriorating blood?"

Ronan was slightly startled. It was the first time he heard this word.

“The blood decay of a seventh-level wizard is too far away from you, so it’s normal that you don’t understand it.

To explain this realm clearly, we need to start with the ancient wizards' division of nine levels.

You are about to ascend to the Dawn, and it is time to understand some things."

“Alazan.

If you are willing to give a wizard lecture from time to time, share the infinite wisdom in your belly with me.
I think the relationship between the two of us will be much better than it is now.”

Ronan pretended to listen attentively.

Alazan naturally ignored the ridicule in his words and said calmly: "The division of the three stages of fog, dawn and twilight has been passed down from a long time ago.

You should have understood the true meaning of fog long ago, but how do you understand dawn?"

Ronan thought about it, and then answered: "Nurture the spirit, and let the spiritual power embrace the light of the elements."

What Ronan said are the two most obvious characteristics that distinguish Dawn Wizards from Mist Wizards - the soul undergoes further transformation, nurturing a spiritual aggregate of elemental energy in the body to assist in combat, and mental power carries the attack characteristics of elemental energy.

That was all he knew.

“It’s not comprehensive and it’s superficial.”

Alazan made his assessment.

“The true meaning of dawn is to pass through the fog and embrace the light of dawn.

In addition to the light of the elements, the light of dawn also represents the light of truth and the light of wisdom. "

“Wizards breed spirits not to improve their ability to control elemental energy or enhance their spellcasting abilities; these are just incidental benefits.

The real purpose is to cast a key, a key that can open the door of truth. "Ronan's eyes flickered. It was the first time he heard such a statement. Alazan was the oldest wizard chief in the Hall of All Souls. In addition, he was also a wise and knowledgeable ancient wizard.

In today's wizarding world, it is simply a "living antique", and the best channel for him to get a glimpse of the splendor of the wizarding civilization in ancient times.

“.The essence of wizards creating spirits is to be able to get closer to the natural universe.

At the third stage of Dawn, the gestation, birth and growth of the Elemental Spirit is the process by which wizards step into the Hall of Truth step by step.

Level 4, 5 and 6 are the three most important accumulation stages for wizards. Naturally, the mentor is the one you need to do your best to acquire the knowledge that it instills and shows you.

The rank of your spirit determines the scope of your activities and the level of your authority in the Hall of Truth of the natural universe.
When you have completed the Dawn stage and the bell of your first glimpse into the truth rings, you will enter the next stage - Twilight.

Alazan's tone suddenly rose a little.

“Dawn, noon, dusk…When the sun sets, if we cannot break through the darkness and usher in the immortal light before the eternal night comes.”

Alazan's tone lowered and became heavy.

"..then you will just be like me, forever sinking into the twilight until your corpse is covered by ashes."

Ronan was stunned. For the first time, he felt a cruel, cold, yet magnificent impact.

Some emotions surged in his heart, but he didn't know how to express them.

At this time, Alazan continued slowly: "

The end point of dawn is to strengthen the spirit to the extreme and then merge it into oneself.

When you reach level seven, the first thing you need to do is to create your own fundamental rune."

"Root rune?"

"Yes, unlike runes in the general sense, fundamental runes represent you and everything about you - knowledge, courage, character, strength. Everything that is deposited in your soul.

This creates a mark, a rune, that is unique to you.

First engrave it on your body. Once you succeed, your blood will have the value and significance of inheritance, and it will bless your descendants and flow through the long river of time in the form of blood."

"Bloodline... So this is the true meaning of bloodline."

Ronan murmured, and at this moment he seemed to understand why he was able to gain Soraya's recognition as a close relative with just a [Frozen Earth] rune.

It's because of the runes.

That's right.

The true bloodline is still inherited by runes, and Soraya is aware of this. Therefore, after the last member of the "Ice Flame Iris" Lanster family died, [Frozen Soil] became the only thing that carried their family spirit.

"..but if this fails"

Alazan paused and turned the topic back to Ronan, "You will become what you are now, which is what I mentioned before - the seventh level of 'blood decay'."

"The damaged rune was not completely engraved. Although it still gains some power, it will decay faster than a normal level 7 rune, and it will never be possible to advance to level 8."

"Actually, my description of your body isn't entirely accurate. You just look a bit like 'degraded blood'."

"If 'decayed blood' is like a tree that is about to wither and die, then you should be a sapling that is in the growth stage.

Although the two look somewhat similar in size and condition, they are fundamentally different.”

After the wizard's lecture in Alazan ended, Ronan fell into a long period of digestion and thinking.

According to Alazan, the Storm Marks growing in his body now are equivalent to inheriting a part of the Storm Weaver's incomplete bloodline in disguise?
But why did this happen?
Even if the Storm Weaver's spell attack contains the profound meaning of its power, it shouldn't be so easily "stolen" by others, right?
Is the problem
"Your body."

As if Alazan could read what Ronan was thinking at the moment, “This body of yours is very strange.

unimaginable.

It's like a perfect blank sheet of paper, born to be inscribed with runes."

Is it really because of the [Immaculate Body]?
Ronan took a deep breath, unable to calm the turmoil rising in his heart.

He had always felt the mystery and extraordinaryness of [Austerity Body Tempering], from the birth of [Immaculate Body] to the emergence of [Ancient Power].

Now, this mystery and extraordinaryness has reached a new level in Ronan's heart.

If nothing unexpected happened, the reason why he was stuck at the last bit of proficiency in Master-level perfection in [Austerity Body Tempering] was because he was lacking a crucial material.

Previously, Ronan guessed that the material was the power of the shrine. Now, considering that even Alazan was surprised and admired by [Austerity Body Tempering], this guess seemed to become more likely.

"It seems that the search for the power of the shrine should be put on the agenda as soon as possible..."

Ronan thought to himself that Alazan seemed to want to say something to him. Perhaps he wanted to know how he got such a body and asked about the [Austerity Body Tempering].

And just at this moment, a rapid sound of breaking through the air was heard.

The fog in front of the swamp dispersed to both sides, and a figure with fluttering robes quickly appeared in Ronan's sight.
