Chapter 684: Chapter 331: Secret Chrysalis Complete, Space Mirror Skill
"Eight stars..."
Just as Alazan predicted, Juventus has ultimately reached the eight-star rank of the Primordial Spirit.
In the era where "Supreme" is extinct, theoretically, the highest Primordial Spirit rank Wizards can achieve in the Wizard World is eight stars, already the unattainable ceiling for ordinary wizards.
It’s conceivable that it takes thousands of years for even one wizard possessing an eight-star Primordial Spirit to emerge on the Upper Ring Continent.
It goes without saying, Juventus’s ascension this time should cause quite a stir across the Wizard World of the Upper Ring Continent.
"Son of the Black Witch King, with a rich background, eight-star Primordial Spirit, limitless prospects..."
Ronan put down the parchment in his hand and silently pondered, "Juventus truly shines bright this time.
If this trend continues, he might indeed gather all Magic Control inheritances and become the second Heramus of the Upper Ring Continent!"
The number one Heaven’s Pride of the Wizard World of the Upper Ring Continent!
This honor has only ever been awarded to the legendary Heramus, and it was unanimously recognized without any doubt.
Now, Juventus is also showcasing this momentum.
"There’ll be a group who will spare no effort to praise him, and there’ll also be those who will try their best to create obstacles for him..."
During this process, it will be the time for Ronan to secretly grow.
As long as he holds the Magic-controlling Bracelet, he will ultimately clash with Juventus. He wonders if when that day truly arrives, he will have the qualifications to face Juventus.
"Are you also looking forward to it?"
Ronan took out the Magic-controlling Bracelet and gently stroked it, the latter emitting a burst of vibrating sounds that seemed to echo his intentions.
He took a deep breath, calming the restless thoughts in his mind, and continued to browse the remaining information content.
"Misha has also ascended?"
Ronan skimmed a parchment, and the content he glimpsed caused his gaze to pause for a moment.
The message indicated that Misha had ascended to Level 5, Primordial Spirit Six Stars. The "official" expressed regret: Misha’s talent was too good, and the speed of his ascension too fast, resulting in a slight deficiency in accumulation at the Level 4 stage. Otherwise, attaining Primordial Spirit Seven Stars should have been a sure thing. Yet, even with a Six Star Primordial Spirit, Misha’s future achievements are limitless. According to reliable sources, within three days after his breakthrough, Misha consecutively defeated several seasoned Level 5 Wizards of the Deep Sea...
"Regardless of how many people deliberately gave way to him because of the Elders behind him, how many of the Level 5 Wizards of the Deep Sea Faction can actually fight?"
The Deep Sea Faction is steeped in an atmosphere of scholarly focus, and the majority of Deep Sea Wizards completely bid farewell to battle after ascending to Level 5. Existences like his mentor Heliodor are not rare. Their combat casting abilities have completely regressed, falling far short compared to Wizards of the same level.
At least Alazan mentioned to him that the Element Pool and Inheritance Array, which only Level 5 Wizards are eligible to establish, he has never heard mentioned in the Deep Sea.
Who would waste their time, energy, and resources to fiddle with that stuff?
"The Deep Sea is too comfortable, without waves and opponents; everyone lives in a huge greenhouse. But when crisis comes, this group will often be the first to suffer destruction and overthrow..."
Ronan has walked through blood and fire, finding such a comfortable environment slightly uneasy. This is also one of the reasons he frequently leaves the Spirit Lake to travel. Unlike other Deep Sea Wizards who might not set foot outdoors for a century.
Ronan browsed the various matters in and outside of Spirit Lake, then suddenly his eyes flashed, reaching out to pick up a parchment.
"..Tanjista Empire’s Eighth Legion, old and new leadership duel, former commander Monger escaped injured, whereabouts unknown again..."
"Monger..."
Ronan looked at the parchment in his hand, a slender figure holding a longsword and dressed in knight attire appeared in his mind.
"Looks like Narros and his group have come out of the maze..."
Ronan frowned slightly. The Level 5 Wizards in the Minotaur Maze, each a monster who survived near insect-like cruel environments, have escaped their hell now. With the twilight level leader Narros, who knows what storm they will create in the current Upper Ring Continent.
"Hopefully they won’t target me..."
Ronan couldn’t help murmuring, yet luckily he used Misha’s name in front of those people at that time. Even if they want to find him, they’ll have a lot of trouble.
But speaking of Misha...
Nonetheless, considering Misha’s personality, if he knew that "he" has left a name in the hearts of a group of Level 5 monsters, even gaining the "recognition" of a Twilight level bigwig, he would probably be too happy to contain himself.
Ronan shook his head, finishing all the parchment, and then took out the Demon Crystal obtained from Narros, slowly absorbing it.
The energy contained in the Demon Crystal, like a trickling stream, flowed into his mind, completely absorbed by the Light Cocoon under the Dark Gold Core.
Visibly, the Light Cocoon in black and white colors, the black part gradually increased....
.....
Mist Space.
At the edge of the black earth, Ahaxia, shrouded in black mist, lay prostrate on the ground in a bowing posture, head tilted up.
Ronan stood before him, his expression calm, using his finger to slowly draw on his forehead. A complicated and mysterious rune shape was gradually taking form.
This process seemed extremely painful for Ahaxia. His expression contorted and twisted, clenching his teeth hard, his ghostly body continually oscillating between disintegration and aggregation.
"That’s enough..."
At a certain moment, Ronan suddenly stopped, then took out a square black cow bell, gently shook it, and absorbed Ahaxia, whose spiritual body was on the verge of complete collapse, into it.
The engraving of the [Destructive Sound] on Ahaxia was already mostly complete. It was estimated that with another attempt, Ronan’s "improved version" of [Ghost Arrow] would be fully accomplished.
Ronan was not exactly sure how much [Destructive Sound] could enhance the power of [Ghost Arrow]. Truth be told, the [Ghost Arrow] inheritance was only average even in the central region today, not considered to be a particularly powerful spell.
But [Ghost Arrow] had an advantage that other spells couldn’t match—it could continually increase in power with the enhancement of the ghost body arrow embryo, making it a growable spell.
Currently, it might seem a bit dispensable to Ronan, but once Ahaxia grows, it could definitely become a major technique for Ronan in the future.
Especially since [Ghost Arrow] was tailored for soul attack means, making it particularly effective against opponents in a soul body state, like the Tailless Evil Dragon Gorini, which Ronan had once encountered. Some preparations should indeed be made in advance.
After handling the affairs with Ahaxia, Ronan examined himself.
Within the consciousness space, the cocoon of the [Secret Chrysalis] was nearing a completely black state after absorbing nearly two portions of demon crystals.
The entire cocoon now had only a final speck of snow-white left, almost impossible to notice if not carefully observed.
"Absorbing any more demon crystal energy is now useless. The remaining bit needs to be completed by myself..."
Ronan was quite expectant about the effects that would present themselves once the [Secret Chrysalis] had matured.
After all, he had practiced the energy system magic to the "master level" demanded by the [Secret Chrysalis], officially stepping into the forbidden domain.
He had absolute confidence that Juventus could not compare to him on this matter.
With the enhancement from the [Forbidden - Black Hole] and [Secret Chrysalis], Ronan was extremely curious about the kind of spell that would eventually transform.
His gaze moved up to the dark gold core coated with a layer of pale silver radiance, and above it, the "Void Mirror" that constantly rained silver sand.
Ronan flashed a glimmer in his eyes, directly calling up his character panel.
At the skill section at the back of the panel, there was now a new spell—[Space Mirror Skill (Proficiency 34/200)]!
Indeed, the first inheritance from the Minotaur to Ronan had been "received."
[Space Mirror Skill], Ronan’s first true space-related spell!
Thinking of this, Ronan opened his eyes, lips slightly twitching, silently whispering mysterious spells as intense spatial fluctuations emanated from his fingertips.
He lifted his hand and casually made a circle in the air before him, with the fall of his finger, an air mirror flowing like mercury astonishingly took shape.
Titanium surged out from beneath his magic robe, transforming into a brilliant and radiant golden color, solidifying into thick tentacles adorned with chainsaw-like suckers.
"Whoosh—"
The golden tentacles emitted rolling waves of heat as they tore through the void, striking the silver space circle mirror like lightning.
In the next moment, something magical happened—
The front half of the golden tentacle vanished upon entry into the mercury mirror, and simultaneously, about twenty meters away, an almost identical mercury mirror emerged, with the front half of the disappearing golden tentacle silently emerging from the mirror surface, its momentum unabated, fiercely striking the high wall condensed from white mist!
"Boom!"
The high wall of white mist remained intact, directly absorbing all the spell’s power, truly the best target for practicing spells.
Ronan’s eyes flickered slightly as the golden tentacle retracted, slowly twisting around him like a golden python.
This was the spell effect of [Space Mirror Skill].
At first glance, this spell appeared to have a similar effect to [Shattering Silver] casted through [Space Silverization] rune.
In actuality, the differences were worlds apart.
The latter achieved this by using [Space Silverization] to enhance in the metal medium of titanium, thereby triggering the ability of short-distance space transmission, where the spell core’s principle was "short-distance space transmission."
For Ronan to cast this means, he had to "silverize" titanium, thereby relinquishing the enhancement of [Golden Decree].
This was also why Ronan used [Shattering Silver] spell less and less now.
Instead, [Space Mirror Skill]’s principle was temporarily opening a space channel in the void, not limited to metal attribute spells, allowing any spell to travel through this passage to achieve the surprise attack effect that caught opponents off guard.
Moreover, the space mirror channel summoned by [Space Mirror Skill] was not only limited to attack, but equally effective for defense.
If Ronan precisely controlled the timing, he could even achieve the effect of the facing spell attack, appearing right behind the opponent themselves in the next second.
Enigmatic, mysterious, and elusive.
This was one of the characteristics of space-related spells, with the power of "time not appearing, space as king" already manifesting at this moment.
"Just that the proficiency level is still low, the landing point of the space mirror channel is currently limited to only twenty meters around me, the channel opened isn’t too stable, and only one mirror channel can be opened at a time..."
However, Ronan’s original soul seals related to mysterious space had also received a significant "enhancement" from Minotaur’s inheritance.
