Chapter 109: Chapter 109: Third Circle, New Space Rune Model
"Yes, Meteor Mage." Kateya immediately corrected herself.
"Hm." Lor smiled and nodded, "The reason I’ve summoned you back this time is for some matters I need your help with, but there’s no rush. We’ll discuss it once I advance to the Third Ring Wizard."
"Before that, feel free to do whatever you want."
"Alright, Meteor Mage." Kateya responded.
"Okay, that’s settled. You can get back to your activities." Lor waved his hand, bidding farewell to Kateya and returned to his room.
...
"Almost thirteen years, I’ve finally come step by step to the threshold of the Third Ring," Lor took out a Divine Power Crystal from his bedside table, his heart surged with emotion.
Stepping into the Third Ring, in the current Wizard World, I could be hailed as a Great Wizard.
Once I advance further, I can become a senior figure in the Wizard Alliance, truly establishing a foothold in the Wizard Alliance.
Moreover, as a wizard traversing the path of space, as long as I can perform that witchcraft fusion, even with Third Ring power, I can have the possibility to survive under a Fourth Ring’s might.
"Soon, it won’t be long," Lor forced himself to suppress his excited feelings, closed his eyes, and his Spiritual Power activated the Earth-Fire Meditation Rune, slowly absorbing the Divine Power Crystal.
In the Sea of Consciousness, as the Divine Power Crystal nourished, Lor’s Spiritual Power began to steadily increase.
5000...
7000...
9000...
Uncertain how much time had passed, when Lor stopped pulling Divine Power Crystals from his Space Ring, his Spiritual Power had reached the threshold of 9999.
To advance further, the selection of a Witchcraft Rune Model as the core is needed for progressing the Earth-Fire Meditation Rune Model.
Lor hesitated not an ounce, directly choosing the Earth Vein Travel Rune Model as the witchcraft model for this linkage advancement.
As days went by, the elemental fluctuations between the Earth Vein Travel Rune Model and Fire and Earth Meditation Rune Model, Meteor Rune Model, and Void Realm Rune Model in Lor’s Sea of Consciousness became increasingly synchronized.
Until three months later, the four finally completed synchronization.
A seemingly invisible line linked the four together.
The Earth-Fire Meditation Rune Model sat in the center of the Sea of Consciousness, surrounded by the triangular formation of the Earth Vein Travel Rune Model, Meteor Rune Model, and Void Realm Rune Model, enclosing the Earth-Fire Meditation Rune Model in the center.
The Earth-Fire Meditation Rune Model extended four lines, closely connecting the Void Realm Rune Model and Meteor Rune Model.
However, the two lines extending toward the Earth Vein Travel Rune Model were elusive, indistinct.
"Meditation Rune advancement is becoming more troublesome," Lor sighed.
This time, he meticulously adjusted around the four rune models, bit by bit.
A slight oversight, a mistake, and the process would need to restart.
The hardships in this journey are not something outsiders could understand.
"Next, it’s time to infuse the Earth Vein Travel Rune Model with Elemental Energy, advancing to the Third Ring. This step is even simpler than advancing to the Second Ring," Lor thought to himself.
With the support of the Void Realm Rune Model and Meteor Rune Model, both at the three-ring level, plus the Meditation Rune Model, the process seemed as simple as eating or sleeping.
Lor’s Spiritual Power covered the four rune models in the Sea of Consciousness, temporarily blocking the output lines connecting the Earth Vein Travel Rune Model.
The other three rune models activated, fully infusing Elemental Energy into the Earth Vein Travel Rune Model.
One hour...
Three hours...
After merely seven hours,
the Earth Vein Travel Rune Model in the Sea of Consciousness became extraordinarily radiant, beginning its ascension and transformation.
"Crackling—"
Elements continuously poured into the body from the Sea of Consciousness, once again fortifying the body.
To Lor, the excruciating pain from the body fortification was now insignificant.
He paid no attention to the changes in his body, focusing all his attention on the Earth Vein Travel Rune Model.
The next steps were of utmost importance.
If successful, Lor would leap through the dragon’s gate, leaving even the Fourth Tier Demons helpless.
If it fails... it won’t fail!
"Leap..." Lor was about to say the name of the desired Space Rune in his heart.
But recalling the mishap during his last rune advancement, he resolutely stopped himself.
Some things can’t be rambling about; if missed this time, he might have to spend years using the Microscope to painstakingly piece together the complete Space Rune version.
"Creak—creak—creak—"
Suddenly, the structure of the Earth Vein Travel Rune Model began violently trembling, and the Sea of Consciousness started rapidly expanding.
At that moment, countless basic runes surged forth from the Earth Vein Travel Rune Model.
Lor encapsulated the rune model with his Spiritual Power, meticulously examining the foundation runes emerging from the depths.
Suddenly, a black rune streaked like flowing light across the surface of the rune model.
"It’s here." Lor’s spirit rejoiced, focusing his Spiritual Power intensely, memorizing every detail of the first Space Rune model.
Two seconds later, the Earth Vein Travel Rune Model completed its transformation, driving the Earth-Fire Meditation Rune, Meteor Rune, and Void Realm Rune to ascend together.
Consequently, the Elemental Domain was affected, triggering a chain reaction and rapidly expanding.
"Buzz—buzz—buzz—splash—"
The Elemental Domain, expanded tenfold, had Earth and Fire Elements roiling in an unending tumult.
Lor ignored the turbulence within the Sea of Consciousness, recalling the details of the just-recorded Space Rune model again and again in his mind.
"Clink—clink—clink—"
Three gentle sounds echoed in the Sea of Consciousness, indicating the ascension of the Great Meteor Technique Model, Void Realm Rune Model, and Earth-Fire Meditation Model to the Third Ring level.
Thus, Lor officially became a Third Ring Wizard.
Yet his focus was nowhere near the current achievement; being a Third Ring Wizard was inevitable. What mattered now was discerning precisely which Space Rune model had been acquired.
Lor condensed the Space Rune model just memorized into the Sea of Consciousness, slightly touching it with Spiritual Power.
In the next instant, the Space Rune model vanished quietly, reappearing on the opposite end of the Sea of Consciousness.
"Luckily, nothing unexpected happened this time." Lor’s lips involuntarily curled into a smile, his heart surged with excitement.
The Space Rune he most desired during this advancement was precisely this one.
The rune is named ’Leaping Void.’
By combining this rune with the Earth Vein Travel Technique, then fusing several stabilization witchcraft models, and strengthening from multiple angles, one of a Spatial Mage’s signature witchcrafts, Space Jumping Witchcraft, can be born.
Space Jumping Witchcraft can link with the Spatial Positioning Rune.
As long as a location can be pinpointed, a space jump can be performed in an instant, making it a divine technique for escape.
"Once I merge Space Jumping Witchcraft, I will have confidence to survive under a Fourth Tier Demon’s hands," Lor’s eyes were filled with anticipation.
