Wizard Bloodline.

Chapter 287: The physical strength is gone, but the skills remain! Comments
Ronan lacks the subsequent inheritance of the [Frozen Earth] flowing ice method. Both [Broken Winter Mirror] and [Snow Country in the Palm] are Ronan's original secret killing moves based on his understanding of ice methods.

He now only has a vague system framework in his mind. Many ideas require the accumulation of knowledge and inspiration, and need to be tried and improved bit by bit.

This will inevitably be a long and difficult process.

But it is very interesting that Ronan is willing to carefully draw the blueprint of the ice mage in his mind in this way.

"Kaka——"

The remaining frost in the "Snow Country" shows signs of melting.

Ronan looked around and felt that the temperature of the flames on the battlefield was rising rapidly.

More magma emerged from the ground, and the blazing flames rose higher and higher.
Obviously, after he dealt with the previous fourth-level fire wizard, the next opponent was already on the way.

Ronan raised his body, his naturally falling hair slowly floated up, his eyes shone with an indescribable light, and the ten spiritual power crystals in his mind were "ignited" at the same time. A terrifying spiritual force field that was ten times stronger than before emanated from his body, emptying the surrounding flames in circles. He had already entered the combat state of [Ethereal Extreme Mind].

Level 4 Dawn has already appeared, and the next opponent will definitely be stronger.

Given Ronan's current condition, if he wants to win, taking the initiative is a good choice.

"GuluGulu——"

It was still the same old position, with large amounts of magma surging up and forming the outline of a new opponent.

"hiss--"

Ronan took a deep breath, spread out the five fingers of his right hand, knelt on one knee, and gently pressed his palm on the void beneath his feet.

Countless icy air currents immediately gushed out, forming a huge white vortex, blowing Ronan's robes and long hair up.

He spread out his five fingers, and on the tip of each finger there was deep blue ice patterns that looked like runes or spider webs rapidly growing outwards. Those were the veins of ice, the aurora that flickered on the eternal glacier!
Veins of ice extended rapidly, intertwining and entwining, and in an instant, a larger and larger magic array was woven in the void. The center of the array was the opponent that was about to take shape. Layers of solid ice covered it, freezing the surging magma.

"Click——"

A powerful mental force that was dozens of times stronger than the previous fire wizard broke through the ice and was released.

This mental force was also mixed with terrifying firepower. Wherever it passed, it directly cleared the frost in the void and caused the surrounding ice magic array to show signs of melting.

"Level 4 mid-term..."

Ronan's eyes flickered, and he stepped back. At the same time, his ten fingers flew, throwing out ice spells one after another in all directions. The collapsed snow country was rebuilt once again, towering over the magma, constantly reinforcing the entire ice magic circle.

At the same time, five different kinds of magical energy rose around Ronan and gradually merged.

A hint of ancient, vast, evil and domineering aura slowly emerged, and the shadow of Hekator's ancient frost hydra appeared faintly behind Ronan.

"boom!"

A piece of the center of the magic circle suddenly exploded, and the endless red magma could no longer be suppressed. It gushed out and formed a huge fire lotus, which bloomed directly in the center of the "Snow Country".

The collision of the two forces of ice and fire produced billowing white mist. A thin figure with boiling magma flowing all over his body gradually emerged from the blooming fire lotus. A flame-shaped rune flashed between his eyebrows, releasing the terrifying majesty of the Fire Demon Lord.

Ronan frowned. Without his physical body and the blessing of the ancient frost hydra bloodline flowing in his body, his forbidden move of the fusion of the five realms was "activated" very slowly.

Otherwise, according to the original plan, the opponent in this round would not have the chance to "appear on the stage" at all.

"Lingmaya."

Ronan separated a part of his mind, chanted ancient golden words, stretched out his left hand, pointed it at the flaming magma figure with flashing runes, and suddenly clenched his five fingers, as if he wanted to strangle the man's throat from a distance.

"Boom, boom, boom -"

In an instant, the magma around Ronan began to boil, and dozens of magma and metal chains suddenly jumped out of the magma, like golden chains of a giant python!
Dozens of golden chains penetrated into the "Snow Country" area, shooting straight towards the figure in the center, quickly wrapping around him. A dazzling red light oozed out of the latter's body, and he resisted the entanglement of the chains.
Without titanium as the medium for casting spells, the power of Ronan's metal spells was greatly reduced and could only be used as a means of auxiliary combat.

“Bang—Bang—”

The chains of [Touch of Black Steel] had just been wrapped around for a short time when they broke one by one.

A huge and twisted red light broke free from the layers of chains. Seeing that the figure in the red light was about to take a step forward, Ronan formed seals with his hands, and the spell that he had prepared for a long time was finally completed.

"call--"

The ancient frost fell, and the huge magma lake cooled, solidified and froze inch by inch.

A hint of forbidden aura flowed, thick clouds rolled, and deep blue lightning streaked across the sky.

"Roar--"

With a majestic growl, five ferocious giant snakes covered with ancient frost scales slowly raised their heads from the frozen magma lake, roared toward the sky, and bit towards the fiery red in the center!
[Fifth Poem. Hekalto's Ancient Bite]!
The dark blue, almost black, ice condensed rapidly, directly covering all the fiery red. A huge iceberg took shape, with dense and mysterious veins growing in it like a forbidden magic circle. Without the blessing of blood, the power of [Five Heads. Hekalto's Ancient Bite] was inevitably greatly reduced.

Ronan could feel the heat still surging under the ancient iceberg. The icy force was unable to extinguish the flames. It was probably only a matter of time before the other party escaped.

Ronan's eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment of hesitation, he formed seals with his hands, and layers of frost began to gather towards him.

Large swaths of free energy particles rushed in from the void, condensing into an ancient and beautiful ice crystal armor on Ronan's body, and also into an ice crystal spear, with the tip of the spear igniting a dark green fire that could break the law.
On the surface of the body, some tiny lightning flashed out, coming from the storm patterns engraved in the flesh, blood and bones.
All the power was added, and finally, countless magma surged up, and eight pieces of golden eagle wings made of a mixture of gold and lava slowly unfolded behind Ronan.

Ronan took a deep breath, feeling his conscious body about to reach its limit, and slowly raised the ice crystal spear in his hand. The eight golden wings behind him slowly wrapped around him.

When his momentum reached its peak, Ronan rose into the air, holding the gun in both hands, and then with a diving posture, he shot fiercely at the red flash jumping in the iceberg!
Although his strong physique is gone, the skills honed from countless close combats remain!
Use your body as a blade to tear apart all obstacles in front of you!
"boom!"

Like a falling meteor, it hits the earth hard.

The ancient iceberg was suddenly pierced by a golden color, and then exploded, turning into frosty white mist that almost filled most of the flame space.

In the gradually dissipating fog, a figure holding a spear and kneeling on one knee appeared.

Ronan stood up and stood in a large pit of magma that was cooling and freezing in a sputtering shape. He turned around and looked back at the empty battlefield behind him, as if it had been severely washed away by some terrible force.

The ice crystal spear in his hand melted, and the broken ice crystal armor on his body broke apart piece by piece.
In the end, even he himself turned into a scattered gleam of light and disappeared into the air.

"call--"

Consciousness returns to the body.

Ronan twisted his neck slightly, getting familiar with the innocent body he had "reunited after a long separation".

He was still accustomed to the powerful feeling of "all power belongs to oneself".

"came back?"

Alazan greeted him lightly, transformed into a golden ladybug and flew past his eyes, finally landing on a few bright red crystals.

one two three four
Ronan counted and found that the final rating he got for the spell level was five stars.

“It’s a pretty good result.”

"Not bad?"

"At least compared to your soul aptitude, it's pretty good."

Alazan chuckled.

Ronan simply ignored it and summarized everything in his mind.

With his spiritual power being suppressed and unable to use his physical strength, a five-star rating is indeed almost his limit.

According to this calculation, in order to obtain a six-star rating, one may have to defeat an opponent in the late fourth stage. Seven stars corresponds to level five, eight stars to the middle of level five, and nine stars to a wizard in the late fifth stage!
"Even if I can use the 'Ancient Demon Body' transformed by the [Double Spiral Palace], the advanced [Ancient Power], and the [Forbidden Black Hole] blessed by the Heramus Armlet. The nine-star rating is still difficult to achieve."

Ronan estimated that in order to defeat the late fifth level at the third level, there would be only a slight possibility unless he used [Spirit Heart Amber] to tap the potential of his soul to the limit, condensed the soul symbol to perfection, [Austerity Body Tempering] to break through to the next level of proficiency, and built [Spiral Palace] up a few more levels.

"Ratings above six stars are probably reserved for those with top-level inheritances and powerful innate bloodlines."

Ronan subconsciously thought of Juventus, the "first generation" of level seven, the man whose temperament seemed like a natural god.

Ronan had nothing to be dissatisfied with regarding this result.

He suffered from the fact that he had practiced for too short a time. He had only recently practiced top-level inheritances such as [Golden Country], [Spiritual Amber], and [Ancient Star Meditation Method], and his attainments were not deep. Otherwise, even if it was a test of pure spellcasting ability, it would be enough to rank among the top geniuses.

As for the flesh
It is meant to test abilities beyond the rules, and using it would seem like "cheating".

As his strength continued to increase, Ronan now knew that the vast majority of wizards were unwilling to spend their time, energy and resources on their bodies. Apart from the fact that the effort and reward were too disproportionate, there was another very important reason. After dawn, the elemental spirits were born, and wizards could use the elemental spirits to elementalize their bodies.

It was just like the method Jupiter used in the wizard competition using the Dawn tool.

The elemental body can avoid most physical and spell damage, which is also a major sign that a level 5 wizard is stronger than a level 4 wizard.

No matter how much energy you expend on your body, it will eventually return to the elements, so why waste your energy?
In time, Ronan will inevitably reach this point.

Ronan had thought about this problem a long time ago.

His idea was that if [Immaculate Body] and "elementalization of the body" were really incompatible at that time, he would have no choice but to give up the method of "elementalization of the body" and just be a level five wizard who could not "elementalize the body".
