Wizard Earl

Chapter 730 First-Level Wizard (2)

Seeing that the Soul-Suppressing Stone was effective, Connor, who had been somewhat worried, felt much more at ease. Taking advantage of the moment when the Soul-Suppressing Stone was taking effect, he quickly took out a small jade box from his spatial ring. Opening the jade box, Connor took out a deep blue pill and swallowed it without hesitation.

If the Soul-Suppressing Stone was Connor's first method of dealing with the mysterious whispers, then this medicine called "Ice Heart Pill," which Margaret obtained for Connor from the Church of Storms, was Connor's second method of dealing with the mysterious whispers!

The Ice Heart Pill is a secret pill of the Storm Church. Although it is a secret pill, the Ice Heart Pill only keeps the user's mind calm and undisturbed for one hour. Therefore, it is considered a rather useless drug in the Storm Church. It is only used as an aid for the wizards of the Storm Church when practicing ice-attribute magic. It only circulates within a small circle within the church and is not well known to the outside world.

When Connor was preparing to break through to become a formal wizard, he had already considered the issue of mystical incantations. After all, the trouble caused by mystical incantations when he broke through to become an advanced wizard apprentice was still fresh in Connor's memory.

During the preparations, Connor learned of the existence of the Ice Heart Pill by chance on the black market. After carefully studying the effects of the Ice Heart Pill, Connor realized that it was likely to have a restraining effect on mysterious whispers. Connor was overjoyed and contacted Margaret the next day to ask her to help him find the Ice Heart Pill within the church. Margaret's abilities were indeed very strong, and she did not disappoint Connor. In just one week, she successfully obtained the Ice Heart Pill for Connor from the church's potion vault.

Before today, Connor considered the Ice Heart Pill and the Soul-Suppressing Stone as a double insurance against the Mysterious Whispers, which is why he was so confident and somewhat dismissive of their appearance. However, now that he has experienced the power of the Mysterious Whispers, Connor has begun to have some doubts about whether his two prepared countermeasures can achieve the desired effect.

However, despite his declining confidence, Connor has no way to prepare now and can only grit his teeth and push forward!

As soon as the Ice Heart Pill entered his stomach, Connor immediately activated the Abyss Secret Technique at high speed, trying his best to digest the medicinal power of the Ice Heart Pill. With Connor's efforts, only three seconds had passed when Connor felt a bone-chilling cold air rush out from his stomach, flowing through his limbs and meridians, and his mental center.

Sensing this, Connor, who was struggling against the dizziness in his head, was overjoyed. At the same time, Connor cast a spell again to activate the Soul-Suppressing Stone in his hand. Under the effect of Connor's magic, the silver-white light emanating from the Soul-Suppressing Stone increased by a full 50%!

The Soul-Suppressing Stone and the Ice Heart Pill, two methods that Connor had prepared for a long time, were used together at this moment and unleashed their full power. Connor's spirits were instantly lifted, and the heat in his body and the dizziness in his mind disappeared by half, dropping to a level that Connor could bear!

The nine spiritual runes that had stalled their fusion in Connor's divine sea due to the outbreak of mysterious murmurs began to merge again.

Although the crisis brought about by the mysterious whispers has gradually begun to stabilize, Connor still dares not be careless and tries his best to use his mental power to control everything that is happening to him!

In another pocket on Connor's body was a silver needle. This was the fifth and final method Connor had used for this breakthrough, following the Magic Stone Energy Gathering Array, Varga's custom-made breakthrough aid, the Soul Suppressing Stone, and the Ice Heart Pill. When he encountered an energy shortage during his breakthrough to Advanced Wizard Apprentice, he relied on hardening his heart and piercing his skull with this silver needle to survive that difficult time.

Although he was lucky enough to survive that time, as his cultivation level increased, Connor increasingly understood just how great the risk he had taken was, and how fortunate he was to have successfully broken through to the advanced wizard apprentice level. If he had made even the slightest mistake, Connor Ferguson would have exploded on the spot, leaving no trace of his body. Realizing the seriousness of the matter, Connor broke out in a cold sweat and secretly resolved never to take such risks again!

However, now that he has broken through to become a first-level wizard, Connor has chosen to temporarily forget his original decision and has prepared this silver needle for himself. Of course, although Connor has prepared this silver needle for himself, it does not mean that Connor will use it as a regular means. It is a desperate measure that can only be used as a last resort when not using it will surely lead to death!

Time passed second by second. With Connor's persistence, the nine spiritual runes in his mind gradually began to merge. A crystal, entirely black with some silver specks, condensed into a prototype. As this prototype appeared, the mysterious whispers in Connor's ear vanished without a trace.

As the mysterious murmurs disappeared, the heat in Connor's body and the dizziness in his mind also subsided. Connor was overjoyed to feel this, but he still restrained his joy and continued to remain calm.

After all, although he can only wait until the crystal in his divine sea completely condenses into a magic crystal symbolizing a first-level wizard before his breakthrough is considered successful, he has not yet succeeded. He has only stepped halfway into the threshold of a first-level wizard. Connor does not want him to lose everything due to carelessness, or to suffer a complete defeat by taking one wrong step.

Looking at the energy storm around him, which had shrunk to two-thirds its original size, and then at the remaining half of the magic stones in the "Magic Stone Gathering Array," Connor hesitated for a moment, but decided to use these magic stones to help the magic crystal that was gathering in his divine sea!

With a slight thought, Connor cast a spell towards the "Magic Stone Energy Gathering Array." As soon as the spell entered the array, it immediately changed. The remaining thousands of magic stones arranged in the array exploded within a few seconds, releasing a large amount of pure energy. Under the effect of the "Magic Stone Energy Gathering Array," this energy was locked within a three-meter radius around Connor. The dense, pure energy instantly enveloped Connor as if he were in a warm ocean!
