Wizard: My skills can be upgraded indefinitely.

"Ian, I'm leaving. I'm going to the tower to cultivate."

Marlena looked at Ian, "You've been eyeing the witchcraft practice room for a long time, so you can use it now. Harvey is recovering from his injuries anyway."

Ian was taken aback, and the joy that had just risen within him faded.

"Marlena, are you preparing to break through?"

"Okay, I'll leave after I finish what I'm doing."

"That's great! I wish you success! Now I have a wizard friend to rely on."

Malena stared at the tea leaves floating in her hand, her gaze seemingly unfocused.

"Friends... are great!"

Winter was approaching, and the sunlight, carrying a hint of warmth, streamed into the courtyard.

The two enjoyed their honey tea and chatted for a while before going their separate ways to get back to their work.

Ian returned to the potion room and began preparing to break through to the "Awakening Potion" level.

Arriving at the worktable, he skillfully took out moonflower grass, menthol crystals, magic catalytic powder, and other medicinal materials from the constant temperature incubator.

Just like countless times before, the concoction of the "Awakening Potion" began.

Grind, extract, stir, add magic catalyst powder...

Each step flowed as naturally as breathing, and the solution in the crucible gradually clarified under the catalysis of magic...

[Clarity Potion Proficiency +1]

[Clarity Potion Proficiency +1]

……

As each potion was perfectly created, the level of proficiency in my mind also increased little by little.

At this level, it takes to refine more than a dozen "Awakening Potions" to improve proficiency even slightly.

When half the table was almost filled with potions, Ian looked at the numbers on the panel.

[Awakening Potion: Control (399/400)]

"This is so hard to get through!"

Ian didn't pause at all, his eyes still focused, as he picked up another document, his movements fluid and effortless.

The extract of menthol crystals was mixed with the moonshine grass solution, and under his precise magical control, the solution began to stabilize and clarify...

Suddenly, another flash of inspiration struck Ian. Guided by his intuition, he increased the amount of magic powder and evenly mixed it into the solution…

As the catalytic process ended and Ian withdrew his mental energy, a familiar yet deeper blue light rose.

hum!

The moment the potion took shape, Ian's mind was jolted.

It's somewhat similar to when "Secondary Frost Ray" broke its limits, but there are also significant differences.

A flood of insights and information rushed into my mind, not just about the refining techniques and a deeper understanding of the ingredient ratios.

There is also a touch upon the essence of "focus" and "mental comfort"!

Even some insights into other medicines flowed in.

The only regret is that no runes were born in my mind!

Ian lowered his head in thought, vaguely understanding the conditions for rune generation.

After a brief blur, the panel gradually became clear.

[Awakening Potion: Limit exceeded once (0/800) (Special Effect: 1. Strong)]

After the panel was updated, Ian had also digested the information flow from before and understood the meaning of "powerful".

This upgraded version of the sobering potion is twice as effective as the regular version in maintaining mental focus and aiding meditation!

He picked up the newly prepared limit-breaking potion and examined it carefully.

The color of the potion is deeper and purer than the regular version, with subtle starlight flowing within it.

Just holding it in your hand, you can almost feel a cool sensation emanating from it, giving off an aura that calms the mind and soothes the soul.

Ian suppressed the urge to try it immediately and first focused on the changes in his mind.

The concentration of his mental energy increased by about 10% due to this breakthrough, and his control over magic power became more effortless.

This feeling is exactly the same as the feeling of breaking through the limits of witchcraft last time.

He was now completely certain that each time his skill reached its limit, he could condense his mental energy once more.

Ian was somewhat excited; this was no small amount of excitement.

In this way, even if it takes some time to improve low-level skills, it's still worthwhile.

He'll acquire more and more skills in the future; he can just spend more time grinding them up.

Looking at the words "Powerful" on the panel, I was filled with anticipation.

"The effect of aiding meditation is doubled!"

This means that within the same meditation time, the efficiency of mental energy tempering will be greatly improved, and the proficiency growth rate of the "Star Moon Low-Level Meditation Method" will also accelerate accordingly.

Let's begin!

Without hesitation, Ian drank the potion in one gulp.

The moment the medicine slid into my mouth, a familiar cool sensation rushed into my mind.

But then, an unprecedented sense of clarity and focus enveloped him.

All the chaotic thoughts in my mind were swept away, and the meditation flowed smoothly.

His perception of the details of the Will Runes became more acute, making it easier for him to outline them.

Ian immediately entered a meditative state and began to visualize the runes of will.

In his mind, nine great will runes interlocked and slowly rotated in the void, displaying a complex and exquisite structure.

One of the large will runes has "grown" two complete crescent moon runes.

A large rune of will on the side also "grew" a small rune, and another half of the illusory small rune had not yet taken shape.

As for the other seven large runes, the area around them was completely empty.

Ian was in a state between sleep and wakefulness. With each practice of meditation, the illusory little rune gradually condensed until it finally took shape.

At the same time, the scattered spiritual energy in the void was being tempered bit by bit during the rune formation process...

[Star and Moon Low-Level Meditation Skill Proficiency +1]

[Star and Moon Low-Level Meditation Skill Proficiency +1]

……

As time passed, Ian felt his meditation technique gradually becoming sluggish, knowing that the effects of the drug had worn off.

He opened his eyes and looked at the progress on the panel.

[Level: Intermediate Wizard Apprentice (15%)]

[Skill: Low-level Star and Moon Meditation Technique: Proficient (284/400)]

My meditation skill level increased by a full 3 points just now!

The level also increased by 1%, which is due to the previous accumulation, and it naturally increased by 1 point.

"This feels wonderful!"

Ian was thrilled. This enhanced version of the sobriety potion had completely resolved the previous drug resistance, just like taking a brand new meditation potion.

"Hehe, this level of special effects is ridiculously powerful!"

Now his cultivation will enter a fast track again, and his realm will increase rapidly.

Looking at the time, this meditation session had lasted less than two hours; he could meditate at full capacity for six hours a night.

Based on this calculation, the meditation method can be mastered in less than half a month, at which point efficiency can be further increased.

Ian's eyes gleamed. If he continued at this pace of cultivation, he might be able to break through to the intermediate apprentice level in less than half a year!

"Huh!" Ian suddenly noticed that the proficiency level of Rock Bear Potion on the panel seemed to have increased a bit.

[Rockbear Potion: Beginner (27/400)]

It turns out that some of the information that had flowed into my mind earlier was my understanding of how to make "Rock Bear Potion".

It seems that once a potion reaches its limit, it will affect the crafting techniques of some other potions.

When he was refining the "Rock Bear Potion," flashes of inspiration would occasionally appear in his mind, greatly improving his refining skills.

After all, potion making is not a single, independent skill; it inevitably involves understanding other areas of potion making.

Ian thought this made perfect sense.
