Talent level increased by one, a transcendent Star Wizard

"Where did Mu Shuang find this kind of magic?"

Xia Jian flipped through the spellbook with a strange look on his face.

The Demon Transformation Spell has mediocre attributes in all aspects, but when combined, it definitely ranks among the top-tier second-tier spells.

Moreover, judging from the effect of the Demon Transformation Spell, its compatibility with the Dark Demon Soul Infusion is very high. Theoretically speaking, even if these two spells cannot complement each other, the combined effect should be slightly stronger than the combined effect of regular spells.

Of course, Xia Jian didn't care. He had the '+1' talent, so even if they were two unrelated spells, leveling them up to level 10 wouldn't be too bad.

Adding five top-tier second-tier spells at once—that's enough to fool anyone.

This is also what Natsume found strange.

A regular spell has only one effect, but this spell has as many as five effects, and its power is so high.

Finding even one spell with three effects is difficult; Xia Jian has never heard of any nearby forces possessing such a special spell.

"I just wonder which unlucky guy got robbed."

Thinking of this, Xia Jian shook his head slightly.

It's highly likely that Mu Shuang stole this spell, because she's actually capable of doing something like that.

The key point is that this guy doesn't have a concept of "insiders" or "outsiders." If you get robbed, you can only blame your bad luck. Frank is a typical example.

…………

After memorizing the demon-transforming spell, Xia Jian began his advancement.

Xia Jian, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, swallowed two kinds of pills and then activated the advancement formation on his body.

As the surrounding elemental energy became more abundant, Xia Jian's spiritual power and magical power surged.

Within Xia Jian's sea of ​​consciousness, his spiritual power was like clay, constantly being kneaded and molded into runes.

These runes have a dark and deep surface, as if even light cannot penetrate them.

Compared to the first advancement, this advancement seems exceptionally easy.

This is the difference between having resources and not having resources.

My first summer vacation was entirely a trial-and-error process, with almost no prior experience whatsoever.

This time was different. Mu Shuang not only gave her the pills and magic stones in front of her, but also some advanced experience notes for regular wizards.

Combined with Xia Jian's own mental strength, the advancement seemed to become unusually easy.

As time went by, Xia Jian completed the inscription of the demon-transforming spell in just half a day.

Now, all I need to do is fully solidify the Demon Transformation Spell, and I can step into the ranks of a second-tier wizard.

Just as Xia Jian was preparing to press on with all her might, the image of the black book inexplicably appeared in her mind.

So suddenly, Xia Jian's mental and magical power began to stir, and even the runes of the Demon Transformation Spell showed signs of fading and collapsing.

Without time to think further, Xia Jian quickly calmed himself and tried his best to maintain the runes in his mind.

For some reason, the image of the black book became clearer and clearer. Xia Jian even felt that the black book was in his sea of ​​consciousness, at the center of the demon-transforming spell array.

Something is wrong!

It's really in my sea of ​​consciousness!

At this moment, Xia Jian could clearly sense the presence of the black book.

Not only that, the black book suddenly opened a crack, and the runes of the demon-dispelling spell seemed to be tainted, quickly turning into an eerie gray.

But this is not the end!

When the runes turned completely gray, the runes that originally constituted the Demon-Transforming Spell began to twist and deform, slowly transforming into some rune fonts that Xia Jian did not recognize.

Sensing this, Xia Jian thought of Westin's changes and gritted his teeth to decisively terminate his promotion.

…………

In reality, Xia Jian suddenly opened his eyes, a look of pain in them.

Under the combined backlash of magic and mental power, Xia Jian suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and his rosy complexion turned ashen white as paper at a visible speed.

Xia Jian wanted to seek Mu Yan's help, but as soon as he stood up and prepared to open the door of the training room, a strong sense of dizziness invaded his mind, and then Xia Jian's legs went weak and he fell straight to the ground.

Feeling utterly weak, Xia Jian used his mental energy to examine his body, only to be horrified to discover that magical power was circulating within him in a bizarre way.

Worse still, the runes in my sea of ​​consciousness are continuing to transform!

Xia Jian could sense that he had reached the edge of the second tier, and was only one step away from becoming a second-tier wizard.

But this kind of unknown change is not what Natsumi wants; Natsumi hates situations that are out of his control!

Then Xia Jian hardened his heart.

Besides the mental energy that was transforming the runes, the remaining mental energy quickly gathered in the mind and then formed a golden blade with its surface covered with mysterious runes.

Without any hesitation, the level 10 Soul Split Technique was activated, and the golden blade slashed directly at the strange runes that were about to complete their transformation.

The eerie runes shattered and collapsed under this attack, causing a hundred-meter-high wave to surge through Xia Jian's sea of ​​consciousness. Xia Jian spat out another mouthful of blood, and his face turned a strange dark purple.

The intense dizziness was unbearable for Xia Jian.

Just before he fell into a coma, Xia Jian was horrified to discover that the black book was emitting a gray light, and the damaged runes were slowly beginning to reassemble.

Unfortunately, Xia Jian was no longer able to activate the Soul Splitting Technique, and then his entire consciousness plunged into darkness.

…………

Two days later.

Xia Jian woke up from her unconsciousness, clutching her head.

At this moment, Xia Jian's mind was blank, and he stared blankly at the green ceiling above him.

As time passed, Xia Jian's thoughts were slowly pulled back.

"Am I not advancing in rank...?"

Thinking of this, Xia Jian suddenly sat up.

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his entire body. The twitching nerves caused Xia Jian to curl up, clenching his teeth as if he were about to suffocate.

After a few moments of calm, Xia Jian lay on the bed, his face ashen, panting heavily.

My body was already soaked in sweat, but the excruciating pain had lessened considerably.

After calming down, Natsume began to check her body.

A surge of energy coursed through his body, and instead of the strange gray runes he had seen before, a normal demon-transforming spell array appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness.

and……

He has advanced to the second tier!

"illusion?"

Xia Jian carefully recalled what had happened before, but all that came to him was the pain of wanting to bang his head against a wall, as if countless ants were tearing at his soul, causing unbearable pain.

The more this was the case, the more convinced Xia Jian became that what had happened before was definitely not an illusion!

But why is everything inside the body normal?

And didn't I already stop advancing? Why am I advancing to the second tier again?

has a problem!

But where does the problem lie?

The image of the black book flashed through Xia Jian's mind.

correct!

It's the Black Book!

But why is this happening? I clearly haven't read that book at all, so how did it affect my mental consciousness?

Xia Jian couldn't figure it out; it was as if a fog had enveloped him, making it impossible for him to think of or analyze the problem.
