Wizard: I'm leveling up by AFK in another world

At the bottom of the deep pit, heat waves rolled in.

Claire drank another bottle of calming potion to make sure the manic feeling in her body completely subsided.

He stood up, walked to the edge of the rock face, and looked up.

This is a nearly vertical funnel-shaped terrain.

The dark red rock walls rise high, their tops invisible to the naked eye.

The smooth surface of the rock, covered with glassy concretions, is likely a trace left by the rapid cooling of magma during a volcanic eruption.

The only way out is to climb upwards, and these things seem to provide footholds.

Claire drew a steel dagger from her belt, channeled her magic into her body, and leaped into the air.

when!

Sparks flew everywhere.

The steel dagger left only a faint white mark on the rock surface.

The immense recoil made Claire's hands go numb, and she slid down the rock wall, landing awkwardly in the volcanic ash.

The rock was too hard.

Basalt here has been baked by fire for years, making it as hard as steel.

Claire refused to give up.

He sheathed his dagger, placed his hands on the rock wall, and two small whirlwinds formed in his palms, creating a weak suction force.

He climbed up the rock face like a gecko.

Ten meters, twenty meters, thirty meters...

Claire felt the magic power within her body rapidly draining away like a floodgate being opened.

When he climbed over a hundred meters, his breathing became somewhat erratic.

The whirlwind in his right hand suddenly became slightly disordered.

A glass-like protrusion on the rock face could not bear his weight and broke off with a crisp "crack".

Claire lost her balance instantly and fell straight backward, plummeting to the bottom of the pit.

The wind whistled in my ears.

In mid-air, Claire forcefully twisted her waist and swung her hands downwards.

A gust of wind formed beneath him, catching him as he fell.

boom!

Claire landed on both feet, but the impact still caused him to kneel on one knee, sending up a cloud of ash.

He was breathing heavily, and looking at his slightly trembling hands, his eyes darkened.

Lacking climbing experience and physically unable to keep up, I relied entirely on magic to keep going.

This practice not only consumes a lot of magic power, but it is also easy to slip like before due to a lack of coordination with the body.

He has no affinity for fire, making it extremely difficult for him to replenish his magic power in this other world.

We must find another way.

He had records of flight magic, but only a high-level apprentice's mental strength was sufficient to perform such complex magical manipulation...

Claire's eyes lit up.

His consciousness sank into the sea of ​​the spirit.

Above that turbulent black and white ocean, the Scroll of Time floats silently.

On the pages of the book, the three dark blue marks seemed to sense Claire's arrival and lit up.

A one-time-use portal to the spirit world.

His current mental strength is at the peak of the intermediate apprentice level, just one step away from becoming an advanced apprentice.

Absorbing just one clone should be enough to overcome the barrier!

After some consideration, Claire decided to choose an avatar from the Corrupted Spore World.

Compared to the Blue Ocean Realm where Ula is located, the situation in that world is much more stable, and the probability of this clone surviving is much higher.

He didn't want to waste a door so easily.

Claire focused her attention on a dark blue mark and watched it crumble.

As his consciousness returned to reality, the space in front of him suddenly rippled outwards like water.

A deep blue light tore through the fire elemental aura of the Ironblood Continent, outlining an irregularly shaped door beside Claire.

Behind the door, a gust of damp, fresh air invigorated Claire, who had been immersed in the scorching heat for days.

Claire stepped into the door.

A deep blue light instantly engulfed him, and the portal then closed at the bottom of the crater, disappearing without a trace.

Meanwhile, in the other world of corrupted spores, this door remains open.

The sky here is still that oppressive, hazy yellow, and visible spore dust floats in the air.

Claire stepped onto the soft fungal carpet and looked around.

Before leaving this world, he planted his spore clones here.

Now that he's back, the scenery here seems exactly the same as when he left, making him feel a little guilty.

It hasn't been that long, has it?

He closed his eyes and sensed the location of his clone by following the faint connection deep within his soul.

This plant clone cannot move; it must find itself.

"Underground."

Claire used her wizard's hand to stir up the fungal carpet beneath her feet.

Foul-smelling liquid gushed out.

Ignoring the filth, he summoned another magical hand to peel away layers of mycelium and roots.

After digging dozens of meters deep, a gray, heart-like mass of flesh came into view.

It was as big as a water vat, covered with thick roots that stretched out in all directions.

Sensing its true form, the gray fleshy ball trembled violently, emitting a faint mental fluctuation similar to a baby's cheer.

Claire was somewhat embarrassed.

It's clear that this clone has completely integrated into this area, and may even have become some kind of ruler.

The mycelium and roots he just peeled off were very likely the body of this clone.

"Fine... Anyway, these things won't be of any use to you after you come back."

Claire stretched out her right hand and pressed it tightly against the cold, slippery surface of the gray fleshy ball.

hum!

The gray fleshy mass froze instantly.

[Confirmed to retrieve clone?]

"confirm."

The next second, its body began to shrink rapidly, and the roots that had been extending outwards withered away.

Having learned from her previous experience of absorbing the sea creature potion master version of Ula, Claire was prepared to receive the energy of the spore clone before it entered her body this time.

These violent energies did not become unbridled wild horses, but instead flowed into the sea of ​​the spirit in an orderly manner.

Gradually, Claire sensed that an invisible barrier within her sea of ​​consciousness was beginning to show obvious cracks under the increasing pressure of accumulating energy.

boom!

As a comforting cracking sound echoed in her mind, an unprecedentedly powerful feeling filled Claire's entire body.

It became.

Advanced wizard apprentice.

Before Claire could even experience this new magical sensation, her screen was flooded with notifications.

[Achieved Extraordinary Trait: Living Cyst]

Your body has developed exceptional environmental adaptability, capable of secreting detoxifying substances in response to ingested toxins. When injured, it can utilize available life-sustaining substances for healing.

Looking at such a long description, Claire could roughly guess that this "living cyst" and "sweet pain" were not in the same league.

However, it's good enough to have it at all.

At least for now, if we can secrete detoxifying substances that target hemoinflammatory diseases, that would be a great achievement.

It's unclear whether these extraordinary qualities gained from the spore fragments are related to the "aggregate structure" mentioned by the formal wizard Ronald.

Claire also noticed that this spore clone granted him two automatically generated wood elemental spells:

【Withering Poisonous Mist: Releases a large-scale poisonous cloud with corrosive and nerve-paralyzing effects, draining the life force of weak creatures within its range】

【Iron Wire Vine: Generates giant vines as strong as steel, and its growth direction can be manipulated】
