Clinging to the Witcher world to become a god of martial arts

The Silver Scales advocate order and neutrality, taking it upon themselves to maintain the balance between mortal and wizarding forces, and adhering to their self-defined order.

This includes the absolute autonomy of the Severi royal family, which prohibits wizards from interfering with or controlling them, and the fact that formal wizards cannot arbitrarily attack unarmed mortals.

These rules gave this power considerable influence in the mortal world, and it developed very rapidly, once being considered a first-rate wizarding power.

It was later contained by the combined efforts of the Black Sun Tower and the Forest of Fireflies, which led to its decline.

The main reason for the decline was not only due to external factors, but also largely because the rules of this kind of order imposed too many restrictions on wizards.

When it reaches its peak, a lot of fresh blood will naturally flow in. Once it begins to decline and fails to fully implement the concept of balance, it will naturally begin to collapse from within.

Therefore, the Silver Scales are showing a tendency to fall out of the second tier these days.

As for Raven's Nest, it is less a wizarding force and more the largest intelligence trading force, dealing with everything from the latest situation in various kingdoms to the movements of major wizarding powers.

He prioritizes profit and leverages information to maximize his gains, earning him a certain reputation within the wizarding community.

The area is a melting pot of all sorts of people, and most areas allow outside wizards to roam and trade freely.

Based on the available intelligence, Lorne was able to deduce some clues from it.

The reasons for the war that broke out between the Black Sun Tower and the Forest of Fireflies.

It's highly likely that this is to enhance influence.

They further expanded their influence through war, both among mortals and wizards.

Perhaps the war was at a stalemate, or even that was reversed in some respects, which prevented the goal of increasing influence from being achieved.

Therefore, the Black Tower leadership wanted to quickly seek peace and stop the farce before the situation escalated completely and the news spread...

The above are all Lorne's conjectures; there is still not enough information available.

Wizards need to leave anchors in the real world, but what about between wizarding factions?

After racking his brains for a while, Lorne decided to put it out of his mind for now and focus on cultivating the Heavenly River True Qi.

The next stage after the gas-induced stellar spiral is the condensation of the stellar core.

After successfully constructing a vortex-like star vortex in the dantian using the power of stars and water, the next step is to shrink and solidify the star vortex.

It seems simple, but it is actually extremely difficult.

Xingxuan cannot be manually controlled to shrink; it can only continuously infuse the power of the stars, transform the Qi, and draw the Qi of the Milky Way inward to continuously strengthen its foundation and cultivate its vitality.

It requires time to accumulate and mature, like a slow and steady process; it's usually impossible to achieve success quickly.

In the path of martial arts, the most important thing is accumulation and consolidation.

But what Lorne lacks most right now is time. Even though he has become a formal wizard, he is still only at the apprentice level.

Looking around, there are potential threats everywhere, which could erupt at any moment.

We need to prepare early...

Lorne drank a bottle of Star Tears and began to circulate the Heavenly River True Qi.

The compass needle moved slowly...

......

Five days later.

At the simple rune-drawing table, Lorne was working on the final step.

As the coating and the rune plate fixed to the table were completely attached, the rune plate burst out with a dazzling light, and the patterns on it converged to form an eye pattern.

A series of messages popped up on the panel.

Texture drawing completed, texture fixing completed, lamination completed.

Create a 'Vision' rune.

[Rune Crafting - Spirit Vision Included]

The texture drawing speed is slow, the texture fixation is very poor, there are many problems in the overall process, and the level of mastery has been updated.

[Rune Crafting - Vision (Beginner 12/100)]

After consuming all four bottles of Star Tears on the first day, Lorne devoted himself to the process of creating the Vision Rune.

The blueprints for this rune were given to me by Sodrion, and I've kept them in my moonlight pouch without ever having the time to study them.

After much deliberation, Lorne finally decided to fight to the bitter end. His ability to see the flow of magic was terrifying.

When facing a formal wizard extending their magic, at least you can foresee the danger in advance, instead of standing there like a lamb to the slaughter waiting to die.

Compared to improving one's own strength, the Spirit Vision rune is also very necessary.

It was really difficult to get started. Even though Lorne's mental strength had reached 12 points and his memory and mental strength reserves were far superior to before, it still took him a lot of time.

They also used up all ten bottles of low-level mental recovery potions they had purchased.

During the long breaks between drawing runes, Lorne would either practice the Black Sun Meditation Technique in place or practice Tai Chi for a while to increase his proficiency.

The results were pretty good.

Among them, Tianhe Zhengang's experience points increased by more than 50, and Tai Chi Chuan directly entered level 3 and awakened a new talent.

【Pine and Sink, As You Wish】

[Effect: The body can automatically absorb most physical impacts. When struck by blunt force, muscles and joints can adapt to the force, minimizing damage.]

For close-quarters combat, especially against enemies wielding heavy weapons, this is a remarkably powerful talent.

Unfortunately, this is the wizarding world, and apart from body-refining wizards, no one will rush up to fight you hand-to-hand.

Lorne plans to save the newly acquired attribute points and add them to his Spirit once he has accumulated a certain number.

The progress at level two is very slow. I don't know how many times I meditated before the progress bar moved forward by 1%.

It's impossible to break through level three in a short time by relying on arduous training. The only way to quickly improve is to gain attribute points by grinding martial arts proficiency.

Lorne put the fully formed 'Spirit Vision' rune into his moonlight bag, planning to test its function when he had the chance.

Can the direction of the magic be clearly seen?

After being cooped up in my room for five days, it's time to go out and see the world...

Lorne was still wearing Sodrion's ceremonial robes, but he only had an apprentice's robes on hand; he couldn't very well dress as an apprentice inside the wizard's tower.

Tears of the Stars, a live-fire training ground, low-level mental recovery potions... he silently tallied them up in his mind.
